Chapter 626 There is always a lot of helplessness
The sun was so beautiful today. As soon as Yu Qiaoqiao walked out of the door of Shangshu Mansion, she felt the sun was dazzling. She raised her hand to cover her forehead, trying to block the sun, but the sun still shone through the gaps between her fingers and shone on her face.
She smiled, sadly, indifferently.
"Qiaoqiao..."
Yu Shiming's voice came, Yu Qiaoqiao turned around, bowed and saluted,
"Dad, my daughter is going back. She has caused a lot of trouble to the family these days, and she won't do it again in the future."
Seeing her saying such kind words, Yu Shiming was stunned for a moment, then sighed,
"Dad knows that you blame him in your heart, but there is nothing he can do about it. Besides, Prince Xi treats you well. If you marry someone else, you may not have such honor. Remember dad's words, go back and live a good life, don't argue, don't argue, and be stable.
To be your Princess Xi, Leng Xi is not a person willing to be mediocre. In the future, maybe he will give you a big surprise."
Although Yu Shiming didn't say it explicitly, Yu Qiaoqiao also knew that his father still expected him to ascend the throne.
She secretly taunted in her heart that the position of emperor should have belonged to Prince Yu long ago. Even if Leng Xi was thinking about it, it would be of no use.
But she didn't want to expose it, she just smiled and nodded,
"My daughter knows that when she goes back this time, she will not argue or make trouble, and she will be my Princess Xi. Dad, please come back!"
Leaving these seemingly calm words behind, she turned back to look at Xiaobao and said softly:
"Say goodbye to grandpa and grandma."
Xiaobao obediently saluted Shiming and Mrs. Yu, and followed Yu Qiaoqiao into the carriage.
Sitting in the carriage, when the carriage started, a gust of breeze lifted the curtain door of the carriage. Through the gap, Yu Qiaoqiao saw her mother secretly wiping her tears, while her father kept looking towards her coldly.
She lowered her head and told Chuntao:
"Tell the groom to go to Huichun Hall."
"Miss, are you... feeling unwell?"
"No, let's go see Princess Yu. She saved Xiaobao last time. I haven't gone to thank her yet, but I always feel guilty."
Chuntao said "oh" and conveyed her words to the groom.
After the groom agreed, he twitched the whip in his hand and went straight to the Huichun Hall.
In the past few days, the epidemic of dysentery among the people in the capital has eased somewhat, but there are still many people coming to get medicine. Everyone has recovered from the disease and wants to consolidate it. Those who have such thoughts have been persuaded by Luo Lan to go back one by one.
The medicine she gave Hui Chun Tang will only be given to those who need it most. Those whose condition has improved do not need medicine. No matter how much money she pays, she will not give it again.
Luo Xue and Ah Hong just came back from outside and said impatiently:
"Sister, Ah Hong and I checked according to what An An said. There is indeed a house on that mountain, but it is already empty and there is no man in black as mentioned by An An."
Luo Lan's eyebrows were a little more worried. After An An came back from Yancheng, she told Luo Lan exactly what happened to her during this period. The only thing she concealed was that she knew that the man in black was Leng Xi.
Luo Lan originally wanted to ask Leng Yu to investigate this matter, because it was related to the safety of Prince Yu's palace, but the recent affairs in the military camp and the court had made him very busy, so she decided to ask Luo Xue and Ah Hong to investigate.
"Did the Fan family go to the village? What did the Fan family say?"
"They have not seen the true appearance of the man in black, but they said that the accent of the man in black should be that of a local."
native?
Luo Lan held his chin with one hand, thinking hard, and murmured:
"Local? In this case, this person may be someone close to us. It seems that we need to be more careful in the future."
Ah Hong nodded, cupped his fists and asked again:
"Then do we still want to continue the investigation?"
"Send someone to keep an eye on the house on the mountain. If a suspicious person is found, he will be arrested immediately for interrogation."
"Yes, I will make arrangements right away."
With these words, Ah Hong quickly turned around and walked outside.
After Ah Hong left, Luo Xue put one hand on the table, looked at Luo Lan, and said softly:
"Sister, mother said she would let you go back for dinner tonight, and she has prepared your favorite food."
"But I promised the children that I would go back to accompany them."
"Take them with you. Mom also asked you to call me brother-in-law."
"Forget it. These four kids together can knock off the roof of your house. Besides, they have missed a lot of homework in the past few days. I want them to make up for it."
Having said this, she put down the pen in her hand and looked up at Luo Xue,
"We also need to find a martial arts master for them. Your brother-in-law has been too busy recently and will be even busier in the future. He has no time to take care of them."
"Then let General Ling and the others teach you!"
"That's even worse. They all have important responsibilities. How can we spend time on these children? Besides, let them teach these children to become more lazy. Or should we just hire a more severe martial artist?
It’s a pleasure to learn from Master.”
"Martial arts master? You can teach these four children. Most people can't. Do you want to post a notice to inform the world and recruit wise men?"
Luo Lan pondered for a while, then nodded and said:
"Well, you go tell A Hong and ask her to make a notice to A Li to find a martial arts master for the four children. The salary will be determined based on the skill of the other child."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Just as Luo Xue was about to turn around, she turned back as if remembering something and asked:
"Are you going to have dinner at home tonight?"
Just as Luo Lan was about to answer, A Cai came in a hurry.
"Princess, Princess Xi is here."
Luo Lan glanced at Luo Xue in surprise, then quickly stood up and went out to greet her.
As far as she knew, Princess Xi had been at her parents' house these days. To be honest, after seeing Leng Xi's attitude towards her when she saved Xiaobao last time, she felt sorry for Qiao Qiao.
But she came back to Chun Tang suddenly today. Is there something wrong?
As soon as she went out, she met Yu Qiaoqiao head-on. She asked hurriedly:
"Qiaoqiao, why are you here free?"
Yu Qiaoqiao stepped forward and took her hand, smiling affectionately and saying:
"A few days ago, I learned that there was something wrong with you in Prince Yu's palace. I couldn't help you much, and I didn't dare to bother you. I have free time today, so I brought Xiaobao here to express my gratitude for your help in saving Xiaobao's life in the past few days."
It turned out that it was for this reason that Luo Lan hurriedly welcomed her into the house, shaking his head and chuckling.
"I'm just a doctor. It's just a matter of effort, so why should you be so polite?"
After the two sat down, Yu Qiaoqiao raised her hand, and Chuntao hurriedly took a jewelry box over. Yu Qiaoqiao took the jewelry box over and opened it, revealing a white jade inlaid with gold hairpin.
"Sister, I've been thinking about what gift I should give you these past few days to express my gratitude to you. After thinking about it, I still think this hosta is suitable for you, so don't dislike it.
"
Luo Lan took the jewelry box from her hand, took out the jade hairpin, admired it carefully in his hand, and then shook his head in refusal.
"Qiaoqiao, this hairpin looks like a rarity. It's too valuable. I can't take it. Besides, I'm a doctor, so you don't have to be so polite."
"Since I have brought it, there is absolutely no reason to take it back, so just accept it, sister."
As Yu Qiaoqiao spoke, he pushed the hairpin in front of her, then turned to Chuntao and said:
"Take the young master and wait for me outside. I have a few words to say to Princess Yu."
After Chuntao accepted the order, she left with Xiaobao.
Yu Qiaoqiao then said in a low voice with a sad face:
"I'm going back to Prince Xi's Mansion. Before I go back, I wanted to come and see you."
go back?
