Her guards

Chapter 48 One Night Passed

After reasoning with them and appealing to their emotions, Wei Jiao stopped keeping his relatives locked up and sent them home.

When Wei Jiao was thirteen, he went to the capital to study, and Wei Cui bought him a house.

However, at this moment, looking at the ancient blue mansion in front of him, Master Wei looked surprised.

“This was the former residence of the Wei family!” he said.

That refers to the reign of Emperor Ai of the previous dynasty.

Zhao Tan summoned the Wei family to the capital, and the three brothers were granted high-ranking official positions and generous salaries. The Wei family's reputation spread from Longxi to the capital.

But not long after, Zhao Tan became jealous of the Wei family and killed Wei Er and Wei San. Wei Da managed to escape. As a result, the Wei family and Zhao Tan became sworn enemies and raised an army to attack them. Zhao Tan, of course, also hated the Wei family to the extreme.

"I thought the mansion had been destroyed," said Master Wei Qi with emotion.

“How could that be?” Wei Jiao said with a smile. “Zhao Tan hates my father, but he loves my mother.”

Master Wei almost blurted out a curse.

The faces of the others around him turned into a kaleidoscope of colors, and Wei Xu, who had been beaten and was being helped up, almost fainted.

What, what, what kind of talk is this!

How could he, how could he say such a thing!

This is outside the door, on the street!

Does he have any respect for his father, mother, or sense of shame?!

Master Wei wanted to scold and reprimand him, but given Wei Jiao's madness, he was afraid he would say something even more insane...

For a moment, everyone seemed to fall silent, except for Wei Jiao, who smiled.

"Go in, go in." It was Master Wei again who gritted his teeth and spoke again.

"Come in. Seventh Uncle wasn't even qualified to enter our Wei family's main residence before." Wei Jiao warmly gestured for him to enter. "My second and third uncles are dead. My father lost his right-hand men, and the main residence is in ruins. We have no choice but to rely on you."

Wei Xu really choked and fainted, only to be held up by two servants.

Master Wei closed his eyes, cursed inwardly a few times, told himself he couldn't hear, and stomped inside.

Wei Jiao turned around and walked outside.

"Huh?" Master Wei turned to look at him.

“I don’t live here.” Wei Jiao smiled, then took the horse handed to him by Xiu Yi, mounted it, and said, “It’s a haunted house after all, I’m scared.”

After saying that, he waved his hand and spurred his horse to gallop away, surrounded by people in embroidered robes, disappearing from the sight of Master Wei and the others in the blink of an eye.

"That damn brat—" one of the attendants couldn't help but curse again.

Master Wei let out a heavy sigh and closed his eyes: "Alright, stop cursing. We've already seen what he's like back home."

"Didn't the letter say the illness was cured?" another attendant said, glancing again in the direction where Wei Jiao had disappeared. "It looks like it's clearly more serious now."

Another attendant whispered, "I think he's deliberately preventing us from seeing His Majesty."

Master Wei sighed again and waved his hand: "If he won't let us see His Majesty, then we won't see him. The Grand General is his father, and His Majesty is wary of the Grand General, so he won't get away with it either."

He paused here, lowering his voice.

"And we have other things to do here."

He then waved his hand.

"go in."

Just now, Wei Jiao had unlocked the door, and two attendants stepped forward and pushed it open, the heavy door slowly opening...
Dust immediately fell from the lintel.

The people who stepped inside were immediately choked and coughed, quickly waving their sleeves to cover their mouths and noses.

"This, damn it—"

Pushing through the swirling dust, the group saw a dilapidated, overgrown courtyard.

"Where will we live?!"

"Isn't there a new house? Let's go live in the new house too—"

Hearing the curses and shouts around him, Master Wei closed his eyes again. Because of the dust, he didn't dare to take a deep breath, only exhaling shallowly. "Stop shouting," he said, waving his hand. He hadn't felt tired from the long journey, but now, after just one day, he looked exhausted. "Go to the street and ask someone to clean up."

I obviously didn't sleep well that night.

The morning light shines on the earth once again.

Yang Luo, having slept well all night, stepped out of her house full of energy.

Mo Zheng had already led the carriage and horses out from the house of the braised pork couple next door.

The couple also stood at the door, watching Yang Luo get into the car.

"Miss, study hard," the woman said with a smile.

Yang Luo smiled and thanked him, then got into the car without saying anything more.

Mo Zheng became acquainted with the couple because she needed to use their courtyard, but as the young lady of the main household, and now that she was using someone else's identity, it was best for her to speak as little as possible.

The carriage emerged from the alley, and Mo Zheng spurred the horse on, making its way along the street in the early morning.

The Beijing Foreign Studies University became lively once again.

Today is the first day that the princess and her companions have come to study.

The Imperial Guard has once again placed the National Academy under martial law.

The carriage drove into the designated area for horses and carriages, and Yang Luo lifted the curtain and got out.

"School won't be over until the afternoon," she said to Mo Zheng. "Don't just wait here, go home."

Mo Zheng shook the riding whip, neither agreeing nor disagreeing: "Miss, you don't need to worry about me. Just focus on your studies."

Yang Luo smiled and said no more. She took out a small mirror to examine her face and check her makeup. Then she picked up her book bag and headed to the National Academy.

Mo Zheng leaned against the carriage, watching Yang Luo walk to the door, while the palace maid instructor continued to carefully verify her identity.

After Yang Luo went in, carriages continued to arrive one after another. The ten selected young ladies went in one after another, and finally, the three princesses' carriages were escorted by the imperial guards.

Accompanying the princess's carriage was another carriage. Before it had even come to a complete stop, someone jumped off, nearly falling, and then hurriedly ran towards the princess's carriage.

Seeing the elegantly dressed young lady running, Mo Zheng narrowed her eyes and clicked her tongue softly.

Wow, you ladies are all amazing!

.........

..........
"Yang Hui!"

"How did you come?"

The princesses and their companions still attend classes in the same palace where they take exams.

Before the princesses arrived, the young ladies who came in one after another greeted each other and chatted and laughed together, making the hall very lively. When the palace maids announced the arrival of the princesses, everyone quieted down and prepared to pay their respects, but when they saw the people accompanying the princesses, they immediately became noisy again.

Yang Hui stood beside Princess Heicheng, looking smug and enjoying the astonishment of everyone present.

Oh, right, there's one more person.

She hurried past the crowd to search and saw Yang Luo standing at the back.

This young lady from the rural academy is still unremarkable in appearance, with a wooden face...

There wasn't even a look of shock on his face?
You must be terrified.

Yang Hui snorted inwardly. Although she had no evidence, she always felt that this person had taken her original spot.

But what if you robbed her? She still came.

She is the young lady of the Duke of Ding'an's mansion, and she can have whatever she wants. She is not comparable to this country girl!
……

....
Seeing Yang Hui reappear and closely following Princess Heisei, Yang Luo was naturally shocked, but even more excited.

In that life, she was confined to her mansion and knew nothing of the outside world. Now, as an observer in someone else's identity, she can indeed see things she couldn't see before.

The headmaster of the National Academy personally determined that Yang Hui was not selected, yet she was still able to enter as a princess's companion. Who could have done that?
Why is Yang Hui and the Duke of Ding'an's mansion valued so much?

Is this importance related to her being murdered in that previous life?
