Chapter 475: The Heartless Regent King vs. the Scheming Princess 20
Xie Zhao frowned and repeated, "Never...?"
Tuying's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, I have something to report."
Xie Zhao waved his hand and Butler Xu retreated.
"What's the matter?"
Tu Ying bowed and said, "Miss Lu just came to see me.
Xie Zhao picked up a book casually and said "hmm" lightly.
Tu Ying then continued, "She asked if I could bring someone with me to Qingluan Mountain to find you."
Xie Zhao turned a page of the book: "Oh? How did you say that?"
"The subordinate said that we have to report to the prince first. Then Miss Lu said... let the subordinate go and come back quickly!" Tu Ying was confused.
In fact, Miss Lu had no idea that the parrot was the prince.
He was a little confused about this.
Xie Zhao glanced at him and said, "You said you would ask the king for instructions, and she already knew what she wanted to know."
Tuying: “…”
Xie Zhao rubbed his forehead and said, "Tell her what Tuxiao found out."
"Yes."
I guess she has some guesses about her life experience now and is just waiting for this result.
She was smart enough to never reveal his identity.
Since this is the case, I just hope that such bizarre and absurd things like spirit possession won’t happen again in the future.
He looked down at the secret letters in his hands.
There are indeed some old ministers who are two-faced and secretly communicate with the General of Cavalry.
It's time to bang bang.
Empress Dowager Tong has become increasingly rampant recently, frequently sending family members to send several men into the palace. She could still handle this before, but now her behavior is rampant.
He had handled everything secretly before. If the emperor's nephew was not still young, how could he tolerate her to such an extent?
If such a royal scandal were to be spread, where would the royal dignity of Daye be?
The emperor's nephew is grown up now, and he can handle some things.
He raised his hand.
Immediately, a man in black climbed in through the window and knelt on the ground waiting for orders.
He handed the secret letter to the secret guard and said, "Reveal it to the emperor."
The latter left quickly.
-------
the next afternoon
Lu Zhihuan and Xuancao packed their bags and went to find Butler Xu.
"I'm really sorry for bothering you for so many days."
Lu Zhihuan felt a little embarrassed as she placed the wood carvings of the little parrot and the big bad wolf she had carved in a wooden box and handed it to Butler Xu.
"Please help me give this to Tuying when you have time. He will know."
Butler Xu thought, in fact, he knew it too.
He took the wooden box respectfully and said, "No need to bother."
Just like yesterday, Butler Xu personally sent Lu Zhihuan to the Yu family.
When we arrived at Yu Mansion, it happened that Lord Yu had just returned home.
Yu Hongjie saw Butler Xu from the Regent's Palace from a distance.
Seeing the carriage stopped at his door, he quickly straightened his clothes and went out to greet it.
This Butler Xu is more than just the butler of the Regent's Palace.
He is from the Xu family, one of the most prominent families in the Daye Dynasty. He has a dual identity, which is very impressive!
Yu Hongjie smiled broadly and bowed, saying, "Butler Xu, I've heard a lot about you. What brings you here today? What are your orders from the palace?
It’s cold outside, please come in…”
Such enthusiasm made it impossible for Butler Xu to get a word in.
"Master Yu, you are too polite." Butler Xu also smiled slightly and raised his hand to return the greeting, "Master Yu, wait a minute."
He turned around and said, "Miss Lu, come down!"
Xuancao lifted the curtain, and Lu Zhihuan got off the carriage.
Yu Hongjie was stunned for a moment when he saw Lu Zhihuan's appearance, and asked with some confusion: "Who... who is this person?"
--------
The main hall of the Yu family.
Butler Xu has already left.
Lu Zhihuan sat on the chair somewhat stiffly.
I complained in my heart, "I only sat on the tip of my butt, it was so uncomfortable."
996 covered his face. [Host, that's called shallow sitting, also known as the front edge of the chair.]
The old lady of the Yu Mansion seemed a little more amiable today.
His attire was not as simple as the day he was in the temple.
She wore a dark brocade gown embroidered with floral and bird designs, her hair was meticulously combed, her silvery white hair was gathered neatly at the back of her head, and she wore a ruby hairpin on her head.
At this moment, he was looking at her with loving eyes and said in a gentle voice: "No wonder I felt so close to you when I saw you that day!"
[Really? Why does she remember cosplaying as Rong Mama that day?]
Lu Zhihuan was very nervous, but he didn't show it on his face. He just smiled faintly and responded briefly.
Just now, when Lord Yu saw her outside the mansion, he was stunned because she looked so much like Madam Yu.
When she entered the front hall, Mrs. Yu was surprised to see her.
She directly explained her purpose and said that she was their biological daughter.
If Butler Xu hadn't sent her here, she would probably have been kicked out.
Only then did the Yu family listen to her finish her words.
When she was six years old, Fang Guixiang was seriously ill and only told her her life story in a confused manner on her deathbed.
She said that she was possessed by a devil at the time and wanted her daughter to live a better life, so she replaced the two children.
The fact that he is now in such a state of illness may be karma. And it is indeed so.
But she was not told the specific names of her biological parents.
Fang Guixiang once said that she and the mistress of that family gave birth on the same day, and she redeemed her indentureship and left on the same day.
The reason was that she was injured after giving birth and could not do any work.
Yu's mother was shocked at the time. How could she not know Fang Guixiang?
This person worked in her small kitchen back then. She was particularly special because she continued to work even though she was pregnant.
She also told the girls around her to take good care of her...
Even the words he said when he redeemed himself were exactly the same.
Having said that, and considering her appearance, there's almost no need to explain anything further!
Lu Zhihuan turned his head to look outside, then lowered his head.
Without even saying a word to her, Yu's father, mother and their young son all went to coax Yu Zhizhi.
When she heard that the Yu family believed that she was the biological daughter of the Yu family, she cried her heart out.
This desperate attempt to commit suicide really broke the heart of the Yu family!
Yu Zhizhi really had no idea, and it was normal for her to be unable to accept it for a while.
Lu Zhihuan recalled the scene just now. Yu's mother cried like a tearful person, but she was not lamenting for her daughter, but hugging Yu Zhizhi.
It seemed like she couldn't accept that her biological daughter suddenly appeared.
It was obvious that the look in his eyes when he looked at her that day at Ning'an Temple was still filled with heartache.
And the old lady sitting in the upper seat.
In her eyes, having a beautiful granddaughter and the steward Xu from the Regent's Palace might be a sure-win deal.
The first glance she took that day showed that she was not mistaken. Madam Yu's slanted eyes were slightly raised, and it was obvious that she was a very shrewd and calculating person.
I didn't even have time to ask her more questions.
But none of that mattered, as long as they could keep her.
She was assigned a courtyard very close to Yu Zhizhi.
This is intended to make them love each other!
Lu Zhihuan watched Xie Zhao through the 996 live broadcast.
He had been handling official business in the study, coughing from time to time.
On the table was a small box she left behind.
I don’t know if he even saw the wood carving that was so ugly that it was unbearable to look at.
When it was time for dinner, Lu Zhihuan asked 996 to cut off the screen.
