Waiting for dawn, Zhao Hongrun led the clan guards to leave the waterside pavilion, because he had to go to Prince Su's Mansion first. After all, since Meng Wei, the left minister of the Ministry of Works, told him that the renovation of Prince Su's Mansion had been completed, he had not yet seen it with his own eyes.
Saw it.
During this time, Miss Su followed Zhao Hongrun's instructions and packed her bags with her maid Lu'er in Cuixiaoxuan, sorting out some important things that she was reluctant to abandon.
In fact, it is just some clothes that I have worn in the past, as well as gold and silver, soft hairpins and jewelry that I have saved for a long time.
It has to be said that Miss Su was in a very good mood at this time, after all, this was what she had been looking forward to for a long time.
I saw her humming a tune and packing her important things with a smile. Only when she thought about meeting Ai Lang's mother soon, she would sigh unconsciously because she was too nervous, and secretly blamed Ai Lang.
, blame him for not telling her about this as early as possible, so that she was not mentally prepared at all.
Looking at Miss Su's worry about gains and losses, the maid Lu'er who was helping her pack her bags couldn't bear it any longer. She frowned and asked, "Miss, are you really going to move to that guy's new house?"
"Huh?" Miss Su looked back at Lu'er in confusion, as if she didn't understand why she said this.
At this time, Lu'er sat angrily on the edge of the bed and said angrily: "There is no betrothal gift, no betrothal gift, no wedding team, nothing, so the young lady hurriedly followed the boy to his new house.
I've gone to the mansion, what does that mean? I'm nameless and have no status..."
Miss Su was stunned when she heard this, then smiled slightly, sat next to Lu'er, held her hand, and whispered: "Even so, I am satisfied...Although Jiang Lang never talked about his family, I
It can be guessed that he must come from a large family with strict family rules. For a woman with an unclean background like me, it is a blessing for him to not give up..."
Lu'er pouted and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Even so, I still have to give the lady a concubine status."
Miss Su smiled bitterly and shook her head when she heard this. She stretched out her hand to rub Lu'er's hair and said softly: "His status is all illusion. How he treats me is the most important... His new residence in Daliang
As soon as the renovation was completed, he asked me to move in with him. I have accepted his wishes..." At this point, she blinked and added with a bit of daughter-like joy: "Furthermore, Jiang
Lang has already told me that he will make up for those etiquettes later..."
"Seriously?" Lu'er looked at Miss Su suspiciously, and after a while he breathed a sigh of relief: "He still has some conscience, so Miss Fei's infatuation with him is not in vain!"
Miss Su smiled slightly, and then she gently stroked Lu'er's hair, her expression slightly sad.
Because she thought of the little girl in front of her.
The little maid Lu'er is the only person she trusts in this waterside pavilion.
But the problem is that Lu'er is not her maid to be precise, but the maid who was sold to a waterside pavilion when she was young. If she moves out of a waterside pavilion, it means that she has to break up with this trusted person.
, which made Miss Su very reluctant to give up.
From her true heart, Miss Su naturally wanted to bring the little maid in front of her to Ai Lang's new mansion. However, she could not make the decision. She had to ask Lu'er about his thoughts and how Ai Lang felt about it.
manner.
After hesitating for a while, she finally plucked up the courage to ask: "Lu'er, are you willing to go with me?"
"Huh?" The little maid Lu'er was stunned when she heard this, and seemed a little stunned: "I...can it?"
Hearing this, Miss Su's eyes lit up, she hugged Lu'er in her arms, and said happily: "Of course, you and I have known each other for many years. Although we look like masters and servants, we are actually sisters. If you are willing to go with me,
, that couldn’t be better.”
"But..." Lu'er bit her lip, looking a little hesitant.
The smart Miss Su seemed to understand Lu'er's concerns, patting her back gently and comforting her: "It doesn't matter, I still have some savings here, which should be enough for you to redeem yourself."
"But that belongs to the young lady..." Lu'er said with red eyes: "If you use that money to redeem me, what will the young lady do?"
"Eh?" Miss Su was stunned, and then she remembered that Fangshui Pavilion only took away her cards and did not give her freedom. Therefore, from a certain point of view, she and the maid Lu'er were actually in the same situation.
If you can truly be free to move to Ai Lang's new residence, you have to inquire about the attitude of Manager Xu of Yifang Waterside Pavilion.
"You...should let us go, right?" Lu'er said timidly, because generally speaking, no brothel would easily let go of a woman with both talent and beauty like Miss Su.
But when she saw the worried look on Miss Su's face, she immediately changed her words: "But think about it carefully, not long after you lost your virginity to Mr. Jiang, Manager Xu asked someone to take away the young lady's card.
Doesn’t it mean that Mr. Jiang’s family is quite powerful in Daliang?”
"But... I hope..." Miss Su obviously lacked confidence.
Seeing this, Lu'er cautiously suggested: "Why don't you tell Manager Xu about this first?"
Miss Su thought for a moment and nodded slowly.
As a result, Lu'er hurriedly ran out of Cuixiaoxuan and invited the chief steward of the waterside pavilion, Xu Guanshi, over.
"Miss Su, do you have any instructions?"
Just as Lu'er said, Manager Xu was very polite to Miss Su and Lu'er's master and servant, so polite that the girls in the other private rooms in the waterside pavilion and the turtle slaves in the building felt a little weird.
After all, since being delisted, Miss Su has been living and eating at Yifang Waterside Pavilion for free. She has received no other guests except Zhao Hongrun, and has not brought any benefit to Yifang Waterside Pavilion at all. But even so, Yifang Waterside Pavilion treats Miss Su
The attitude of the master and the servant was still relaxed and polite, so much so that they sometimes forgot that they were not free yet.
"I'd like to ask Manager Xu to pay me a visit. Here's what happened..."
Miss Su organized her conversation and slowly told Steward Xu about the request of the master and servant to redeem their lives and that Yifangshui Pavilion would return to them the papers that they had signed.
What shocked them was that Manager Xu smiled when he heard this and said: "It turns out that this is the reason for this, Miss Su. In fact, Xu has already torn up your redemption note and burned it..."
"Huh?" Looking at each other with maid Lu'er, Miss Su asked in disbelief: "Why...why?"
"This is the master's order." Manager Xu pondered for a moment and explained.
The owner? Could it be the financial backer behind this waterside pavilion?
Miss Su looked at Manager Xu in surprise.
As if he had read through her thoughts, Manager Xu nodded and said: "As Miss Su guessed in her heart at this moment, the person Xu is following personally asked Xu to treat Miss Su kindly and return her freedom."
Miss Su felt happy when she heard this. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and asked cautiously: "Is it because of Mr. Jiang?"
"Mr. Jiang..." Manager Xu muttered with a strange expression, then looked at Miss Su, and after some thought, asked: "Forgive Xu for talking too much, is it not because of that that Miss Su mentioned the matter of redemption to Xu?
Mr. Jiang decided to take you away, Miss Su?"
"Yes..." Miss Su nodded anxiously, and then asked tentatively: "Manager Xu won't stop it, right?"
"How could Xu have the courage?" Manager Xu smiled bitterly, shook his head, and then said seriously: "Since Mr. Jiang intends to take Miss Su away from the waterside pavilion, it doesn't matter if he reveals some of the truth to Miss Su.
In fact, Mr. Jiang's family is actually a powerful noble in the Wei Dynasty. What's more, my master and Mr. Jiang are old acquaintances. In terms of seniority, Mr. Jiang is the junior of my master.
... Therefore, my master will take more care of Miss Su."
"Huh?" Miss Su and maid Lu'er looked at each other in surprise.
"The power reaches the sky?" Lu'er blinked and asked in shock.
Manager Xu smiled slightly, with a flash of strange color in his eyes: "Ah, the power is as great as the sky!"
"..." Miss Su frowned slightly, intending to ask more carefully, but when she asked further, Manager Xu did not explain more, and just told Miss Su that she would understand when the time is right.
Seeing this, Miss Su stopped asking any more questions and instead begged Manager Xu, hoping that he would allow Lu'er to redeem herself.
After hearing this request, Manager Xu nodded with a smile and said: "No problem, Xu will tear up this girl's promissory note and burn it."
Seeing this, Miss Su and Lu'er became more and more frightened and suspicious.
In the afternoon, when Zhao Hongrun and the Zongwei came to pick him up, Miss Su and Lu'er had already packed their bags.
So, Zhao Hongrun asked Zongwei Shen Yu and others to help them carry their luggage, and led them away from a waterside pavilion and onto the carriage he prepared.
Seeing the waterside pavilion she had lived in for many years gradually disappearing from her eyes, it was undeniable that Miss Su felt a little sad, but this unexplainable feeling disappeared immediately when Lu'er asked Zhao Hongrun.
"Mr. Jiang, is your family great?"
"..." Leng Buding listened to Lu'er's question, and then noticed Miss Su's eyes full of questions. Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't know how to explain: "You will understand later.
.”
The doubts in the minds of the master and servant deepened, but seeing that Zhao Hongrun obviously didn't want to explain, they couldn't ask further questions.
I don’t know how long it took, but the carriage slowly stopped.
"Here we are, Young Master... no, Your Highness." Zongwei Shen Yu reminded him in a low voice from outside.
Zhao Hongrun, who was closing his eyes to rest, opened his eyes, stepped out of the carriage first, and reached out to Miss Su behind him.
Your Highness?
Miss Su took Ai Lang's hand and stepped out of the carriage, only to find that she was standing in front of a magnificent mansion.
She subconsciously raised her head and glanced at the plaque in front of her house, and her beautiful eyes were filled with shock.
Because there are three large gilt characters clearly engraved on the plaque of this magnificent mansion.
Prince Su’s Mansion!
Miss Su was astonished, and the maid Lu'er pointed at Zhao Hongrun and stammered a series of words: "You, you, you, you, you"
At this moment, Zhao Hongrun looked at Miss Su apologetically, and held her little hand with his right hand a little harder.
"I'm sorry, Miss Su... Actually, my surname is not Jiang, my surname is Ji, and Ji's surname is Zhao. The family name is Hong, and my single name is Run..."
Ji...run? Zhao Hongrun? King Su Jirun (Hongrun)!!
Miss Su opened her mouth, but couldn't speak for a while.
She never expected that when she randomly guessed Ai Lang's identity, she actually got it right. (To be continued.)
