Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 140 Meeting

The second prince's disaster relief has given him a lot of limelight, and Emperor Jing ordered all the officials to see him off.

Sitting on a tall maroon horse, Xiao Mujin looked at the officials standing on both sides of the road with some complacency. He also took a provocative look at Xiao Muling who was at the front of the crowd.

Xiao Muling looked at Xiao Mujin, who was riding triumphantly on the tall horse, and secretly gritted his teeth.

Thinking of what my grandfather told me yesterday, the jealous look on his face faded a little.Thinking that if he had completed that task, the world would be his own when Xiao Mujin came back, and then a strange smile appeared on his face.

"See how long you can be proud!" Xiao Muling murmured with a gloomy face.

But Xiao Mujin didn't see his expression at this time, he was enjoying the glory of being seen off by all the officials.

Lin Yao was also in the crowd watching General Lin go further and further away with tears in his eyes.She also heard about the riot and was so worried about General Lin that her eyes were swollen from crying.

In the private room on the second floor of a restaurant facing the street, there were also a few people sitting there watching the team that had gone away.

"Princess, this game of chess is so big!" Su Xiangqing teased.

"That requires the cooperation of Mr. Su." Yun Xi chuckled.

"It's all about taking what you need, the princess is polite!"

Yun Xi didn't care about his cold words, and asked again: "This disaster relief is very difficult, why doesn't Mr. Su help the second prince?"

"It's inconvenient to talk to the princess. I don't know what the princess asked Su to come here today?"

Hearing what he said, Yunxi saw an inexplicable look in his eyes at the moment, a little melancholy, but also some memories, and more apprehension.

"Mr. Su, I want to take you to a place!"

Seeing her sudden coolness, Su Xiangqing felt a little puzzled in his heart, but he didn't say much.

Yun Xi didn't speak a word along the way, the two sat in the carriage, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.Su Xiangqing felt that Yunxi was a little strange at the moment, and seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, he touched his nose, thought for a while and said, "Can the princess tell me where this is going?"

Yun Xi looked up at him, and after being silent for a while, said slowly: "I'll find out when I get there!"

Su Xiangqing didn't know what to say for a while, so she just looked out the window and thought of something else.

The carriage slowly left the city, and after walking for nearly half an hour, it finally stopped outside a Zhuangzi.

Tsing Yi's voice came from outside the car, "The master is here!"

Su Xiangqing got out of the carriage first, and Yun Xi hesitated for a while before getting out of the carriage.

Su Xiangqing stood outside the yard and looked at Yun Xi suspiciously. Yun Xi looked at the yard and sighed softly, and said slowly, "Sir, please come in! I'll wait for you outside."

"The princess won't go in?" Su Xiangqing was even more puzzled.

Yun Xi shook his head.

Su Xiangqing hesitated for a while and pushed the door open.I don't know why he just believes that Yun Xi won't harm him.Besides, they still have a cooperative relationship now, and Yun Xi has no reason to harm him.

It was only after entering the door that Su Xiangqing realized that there was something hidden inside.This is an antique courtyard, which is completely different from the simple ruins outside the gate.

Not long after Su Xiangqing left, he saw an old man tending flowers and plants in the courtyard.The stooped body gave him a familiar feeling.After looking around for a while, but seeing no one else, he thought for a while and asked, "Is this old man the owner of this place?"

The old man was stunned when he heard the voice. He hadn't heard anyone speak for a long time since he moved here.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the thin man in front of him with some doubts, for some reason he felt familiar.

"The old man is the owner of this place, may I ask you, sir?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the thin man in front of him trembled all over, with a look of shock on his face.

He was a little puzzled and said, "What's wrong with you, sir?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the man's trembling voice, "Su, Steward Su?"

This old man was the chief housekeeper of the Su family, the Grandpa Su that Yunxi had called since he was a child.But at this moment, he didn't recognize Su Xiangqing, but was a little puzzled.In fact, it can't be blamed that he didn't recognize it.A person who should have been dead for more than ten years suddenly appeared at this moment, and he didn't think about it for a while.

What's more, Su Xiangqing was still young at that time, but his appearance has changed a lot now, even Yun Xi didn't recognize her at the beginning.If it wasn't for that finger pull, I'm afraid Yun Xi would have missed it.

Su Xiangqing finally knew who he was going to meet this time, he never expected to see this old man again.He thought Steward Su died in that conspiracy together, but he didn't expect that he was still alive.His eyes were filled with incredible shock, and his eye sockets turned red.

"I am Xiangqing, Su Xiangqing!"

With a "bang", the water ladle in the old butler's hand fell to the ground, trembling all over, "Master?"

"It's me, I'm still alive, I'm not dead." Su Xiangqing said with red eyes.

The old butler hastily stepped forward to hold his hand, and at this moment, he was also in tears. "Okay, okay, okay! It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!"

Su Xiangqing wiped away the tears on his face, and said aloud: "Grandpa housekeeper, what is going on? How did you escape? How did you know the princess?"

As soon as Su Xiangqing finished speaking, the smile on the housekeeper's face froze.Facing the true blood of the Su family, he didn't know how to speak.The elder brother trusted him so much, he killed his descendants, even the princess was not protected.

Although the members of the Su family were not killed by him, they were killed because of his informant.How did all this make him speak.

"Grandpa housekeeper, what happened in the first place? I want to know, I must know. I have lived like a walking corpse all these years, living in the dark hell every day, just to avenge my Su family! If not Because of this, I'm afraid I won't be able to live any longer!"

Steward Su's whole body trembled, and a strong sense of guilt welled up spontaneously.Looking at the child in front of him, his heart aches unceasingly. He was so sunny and handsome back then, but now he has become like this. All of this is caused by himself.

"Young master, I'm sorry!" Butler Su was about to kneel down suddenly.

Su Xiangqing hurriedly supported him. At this moment, he still didn't know what happened back then. He thought that the old man did this because he failed to protect the Su family.This old man also exists in his heart like a grandfather. It was not his fault that he couldn't protect himself as suddenly as the year of the year.

"Grandpa housekeeper, it's not your fault. It happened so suddenly. No one knew that the thief would be so ambitious and kill him!" Su Xiangqing said fiercely, with a dark expression on his face.

Seeing this, the old housekeeper couldn't bear the remorse in his heart. He beat his chest with one fist after another, knelt on the ground with a "slap", and cried loudly: "It was I who harmed the Su family! It was me!"

Su Xiangqing withdrew her outstretched hand, with an expression of disbelief, "What's going on?"

"It's because I believed in her nonsense that I harmed the Su family!" The old housekeeper knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Su Xiangqing's pupils shrank slightly, his expression began to change, and the joy on his face disappeared little by little, "Butler, explain the matter clearly!"

Seeing that the old butler was still crying bitterly, Su Xiangqing's expression sank little by little, and the old butler finally stopped before his patience ran out.

"Young master, kill me! I'm ashamed to see my brother again!"

"Housekeeper!" Su Xiangqing's cold voice came, interrupting his confession.

The old butler felt a chill all over his body, and choked back his original words.

"I'll say it again for the last time! What happened back then?" Su Xiangqing said coldly.

Steward Su finally spoke leisurely, "This starts with the background of the Su family..."
