Noble Lady

Chapter 221 Broken Quietly

"Who are you telling to have fun and not worry?" Yuzhu hesitated between a peony lamp and a rabbit lamp, and wanted to find someone to advise her, so she turned around.

But she unexpectedly saw Yumei talking to someone not far away. She wondered, could it be that Yumei knew someone else?

"I'm talking to the girl." Yumei said as a matter of course, "Look, the girl has gone out to play."

Yuzhu followed her gaze and saw her girl, who was still wearing a veil, "flying" away from her!

"what!!"

Yumei covered her mouth with her hand and whispered in her ear, "It's okay for the young lady to leave for a while, but what if you, Sister Yuzhu, yell out and your reputation gets ruined? Once the arrow is shot, there's no turning back."

Yuzhu widened her eyes in shock.

Does Yumei know who "kidnapped" the girl?

No, the girl said a long time ago that Yumei is not simple.

Yuzhu opened her hands and asked, "Do you know something?"

Before Yumei could say anything, Qiuhua and Xiahe also looked over.

The three people looked at Yumei.

The little girl was not intimidated at all. She shrugged nonchalantly and said, "It's okay. He will bring her back safely later. I guarantee that she won't lose a single hair."

"We just need to find a place to rest our feet and then we'll meet up with the girl."

No matter how you look at it, this matter is unreasonable.

But Yuzhu also saw that the girl was conscious at the time, and if she wanted to resist, she would have shouted loudly.

and.

Although she was in a hurry at the time and only took a quick glance, she was almost certain that the person standing with the girl was not someone else. It was none other than the Prince of Cheng Palace.

It was the prince of Prince Cheng’s Mansion who the girl declined the invitation to the banquet today and came to visit the Lantern Festival.

Yuzhu had many questions in her mind, but it was all in vain if she couldn't see the girl at this time.

"If you lose even a hair, I will make you pay the price even if I die." She spoke in a very calm tone, but there was an indescribable determination in her to fight you to the death.

Qiuhua and Xiahe looked at each other, both seeming to have a guess.

They found a teahouse to rest. Yuzhu was no longer interested in the rabbit lanterns and peony lanterns that she had been so interested in. She was just waiting for her daughter to return safely.

During the waiting process.

Yuzhu and Qiuhua talked for a few words, and they both recalled the abnormal behavior of the girl when she met Prince Cheng several times.

Whether it is Prince Cheng's attitude towards the girl or his omnipresent help, it is hard to believe that he does not have such improper thoughts about the girl.

The girl fell in love with Prince Cheng, and Prince Cheng was in love with the girl. The two of them secretly loved each other but did not tell her.

As she thought about it, Yuzhu couldn't help but feel sad.

"Sure enough, I'm not the girl's favorite maid, wuwu..."

……

at this time.

Xue Chenyu, who was taken by Situ Zhen to watch the giant revolving lantern, didn't know that her most loyal maid named Yuzhu had quietly broken into pieces.

She stood in front of the giant lamp, her eyes dazzled by the dazzling light, and she didn't know where to start.

This lamp can actually hold so many pictures. As the inner and outer layers of the lamp rotate, it can be pieced together to form one scene after another.

It's like an old man who has experienced many vicissitudes of life and countless things, telling the story of a pair of lovers from their first meeting to their understanding and cherishment of each other.

"It's so shocking." Xue Chenyu exclaimed in amazement.

"I really don't know what kind of craftsman and what kind of ingenious ideas can make such an exquisite lamp."

Situ Zhen said mysteriously, "Who knows, you might have the chance to see him again in the future."

There was a mischievous smile in his eyes. When Xue Chenyu looked again, the smile had disappeared.

Could it be that she is dazzled?

Next, Situ Zhen took her to various places in the city.

We watched the lanterns, ate some delicious food, and watched street performances.

She went over to see all the ones that breathed fire, changed faces, and did ring tossing.

Just two or three streets, he took her and was able to discover many fun things that he had never discovered before.

It was also Xue Chenyu's foresight that made her put on a veil early on, which allowed her to avoid meeting some familiar people, or even people she was only vaguely acquaintance with.

Even if you see it, you can pretend not to see it because of the veil covering it.

After a night of this, she felt a happiness she had never felt before.

It was the first time since her rebirth that she felt so carefree and laughed heartily.

But happy times are always short.

Seeing the crescent moon rising above his head, Xue Chenyu knew that it was time to go back.

"I'll take you home." Seeing that she was looking at the moon above her head, Situ Zhen didn't even ask any questions, but stuffed the cute rabbit lamp he had just put on into her arms.

Xue Chenyu was absent-minded for a moment, and at that moment, her heart was filled with sweetness.

……

at that time.

Hibiscus Residence.

"This rabbit lantern is really pretty, but that peony lantern is also pretty. I should have bought them both earlier."

Yuzhu took out the rabbit lantern she had bought and compared it with the other shaped lanterns picked by Qiuhua and the others, and suddenly felt a little sorry.

Qiuhua said to her, "Miss, you said before that you would buy anything you like, but you just can't bear to spend it."

Yuzhu: "That's the girl's money, how can I feel embarrassed to do that?"

Xue Chenyu: "Then I have to thank you very much for saving me the money for a lantern." She said half-jokingly.

After hearing this, the maids all burst into laughter.

Yuzhu herself laughed a little embarrassedly: I saved the money for a lantern, who says it’s not a good thing?

As they were chatting and laughing, everyone saw the figure of a man standing in front of the door of Furongju.

Look at this figure, this stature, this time and this place, it can't be—

He Hanlin?

As the maids looked at each other, He Minzhi suddenly turned around.

Seeing Xue Chenyu wearing a veil and surrounded by four maids, her face immediately fell.

"You still remember to come back? I thought there was something good out there that had hooked you up, making you forget to even go home."

These words were three parts sarcastic and seven parts weird, and with He Minzhi's long face, anyone could tell that he was unhappy.

The cool night breeze blew, bringing with it the pungent smell of alcohol from his body.

Xue Chenyu couldn't help but take two steps back.

Not to mention the maids, they all secretly covered their mouths and noses.

“…” He Minzhi’s face turned green.

At this time, the door of Furongju opened a crack from the inside.

Immediately afterwards, Yuli's little head popped out, and when she saw that it was Xue Chenyu and his group, she breathed a sigh of relief and ran over happily.

"Miss, you are finally back. Lord He..." Yu Li hesitated to speak, looked at He Minzhi and didn't dare to continue.

"It's okay, I understand." Xue Chenyu touched her little head.

He Minzhi was drunk and didn't bring his long-time attendant Shi Tou with him. He came to Furongju and knocked on the door with a sour face. It would be strange if a little girl like Yuli dared to open the door for him.

Asking him to wait at the door is just being polite.

"What are you doing at the entrance of Furongju like this, Master He? If you're drunk, go back and rest. There's no one here to serve you."

"Why don't you serve me? You are my wife, He Minzhi, who married me in a formal ceremony. If you don't serve me, who else can I serve?"

He Minzhi was probably emboldened by the alcohol and dared to pounce on Xue Chenyu without even saying a word.

"Oh!"

Before he could touch anyone, Qiu Hua pushed him away with a palm.

However, Qiuhua was very measured in his attack. He just took a few steps back and fell to the ground. He was not seriously injured.

"Tie him up and send him to the old lady at Ciwenyuan!"
