As soon as Su Han returned home, he was informed by Xiao Hang that the Puyang clan leader was visiting and had been chatting with Xiao Muting in Hanzhu Pavilion all afternoon.
This made her a little surprised. When she had dinner at his house yesterday, she didn't see that he had anything to talk to Xiao Muting. The two of them drank happily, and when they met him on the mountain, he didn't say a word.
Today, I talked with Xiao Muting again, and they talked all afternoon. What could keep them talking for so long.
Puzzled, she walked slowly towards the backyard with her hands behind her back, still discussing with Yun Shi and Yun Lan beside her.
"You think, big shots like them, masters who can make or break the world with just one word, what is it that they can talk about all afternoon?"
Both of them shook their heads and said in rhyme: "It should be related to the Puyang clan and our county."
Yunlan didn't think so: "I think the princess is worrying too much. Maybe the Puyang clan chief is visiting and just chatting with His Highness."
"Both of these two are very busy people. They have a mountain of things to do, and they still have time to chat." Yun Shi retorted to her.
But Su Han just listened with a smile on his face and didn't express his opinion.
As soon as the three of them entered the corner door of the backyard, Yunzhu was pulled to the side under a tree.
"Princess, Your Highness asked your servant to wait here. He said that the request made by the Puyang clan chief this time may be difficult to handle. If you talk to him, it is best not to do everything, so as not to embarrass yourself.
" Yunzhu whispered to her.
"Look, let me tell you, something big must have happened. Otherwise, we would have been chatting all afternoon with no results!" She turned to look at Yun Shi and Yun Lan beside her and pouted, then looked again
Xiang Yunzhu: "What is going on?"
"My slave, it sounds like the leader of the Puyang clan wants to do business with King Yi." Yunzhu turned around and glanced in the direction of Hanzhu Pavilion before whispering.
Su Han smiled and put his arm around her shoulders: "Xiao Zhuzhu, our position is at least three hundred steps away from there. Even if he has rabbit ears, he can't hear us. Look, you are so nervous.
...You are so funny!" He then reached out and poked Yunzhu's little face with his finger.
Yun Zhu hadn't come back to her senses yet. She gently swiped her face twice with the back of her hand and frowned: "Xiao Zhuzhu, you are only sixteen or seventeen years old. Why is your face so rough? You will be due out next year."
The government is already here, how can it be done like this, how can we get married..."
"Your Majesty... Yunzhu doesn't want to get married. Besides, my face is... not bad..." Her face turned red with embarrassment, but while she was stroking her face, she looked at Yun Shi and Yun Lan,
to solicit their opinions.
There was no need for the two of them to answer. Su Han immediately said: "Anything will do. The mud ointment I gave you is useless to you. Have you applied the moisturizing ointment I gave you after cleansing your face every morning?"
No way! It must be!"
Yunzhu pursed her lips guiltily, her eyes flickering as she didn't dare to look at her, and she lowered her head slightly and said: "The things given by the empress are all good, and I naturally know that, so I am not willing to use them..."
"It's just for you to use. Don't be reluctant to part with it. Besides, that thing also has an expiration date. If you keep it for a long time, if you put it on your face after the expiration date, you will be allergic and will destroy the things you can still see.
If your little face is ruined and turned into an ugly one, how will you be able to see people when the time comes? Isn't it..." Su Han hugged her and guided her while walking forward.
Yun Zhu panicked when she heard this: "Ah... I don't know, I don't know... What should I do? I gave away the first few bottles... will something happen..."
"Giving it away?" Su Han frowned slightly and said.
Yun Lan reacted very quickly and ran over, holding Yun Zhu's arm, and asked softly: "Sister Zhu'er, who did you give it to? It was specially given by the empress to all the slaves in our house, but it is also
Not everyone can use it, just like Sister Cuiping in the back yard, it doesn’t apply to her face, so the empress specially formulated it for her."
Yunzhu was really panicked at this time, and immediately turned around and knelt in front of Su Han and said: "I am confused, thinking that this is specially prepared by the empress, it must be an excellent thing, and it is used by the slaves and the sisters in the courtyard.
It was very good, so I kept it and didn't want to use it. When my sister at home came to visit, I gave it to her, just to let her apply it too. It would make her look beautiful. I really don't know, this is still a disgrace.
of……"
"Sister at home? Where are you from, and did you come all the way from the capital?" Su Han was even more surprised this time.
Yunzhu immediately shook his head and said: "If you go back to your Majesty, you must have come with us all the way from the capital. This servant is originally from Jiangnan, and her home is in Cangque County. When she was young, there was a disaster in her family. In order to pay off her debt, she sent her to
The slave was sold to pay off the debt, and was sold to several places. Finally, when she was eleven years old, she was sold to the capital. Just when Prince Chen's palace was recruiting people, she was sold to the palace by Ren Yazi until we came to Baifeng again.
After the family learned about the city, they came to contact me again..."
"How old were you when you were sold to human traffickers?" Su Han was surprised. This is a sad story.
Yunzhu sobbed softly and replied: "To tell you the truth...yes, she is eight years old!"
"You were sold when you were eight years old, and you didn't come to the capital until you were eleven years old and entered Prince Chen's Mansion. How many times were you sold during the three years in between?" Su Han looked at her with sad eyes.
Yunzhu thought about it carefully and said: "Six or seven times. Every time I was sold, I would be farther away from home. It wasn't until I entered Prince Chen's Mansion that I settled down. This slave really didn't do it on purpose. It was true."
I don’t know…”
"Get up. It seems that your family members are quite well-informed. They know that you are in Prince Chen's Mansion and can still find you. They are really interested in finding you." Su Han said with a slight smile.
Yunlan also stepped forward and stretched out her hand to help Yunzhu up, and comforted her in a low voice: "Your Majesty is kind-hearted, and you know this. You might as well say something like this first, so as not to cause anything to happen because of your inability to adapt.
Bad things, right?"
"This slave wants to be simple. I won't do it anymore." Yunzhu replied sobbing again.
Su Han put her hands behind her back and walked forward with a smile on her lips. But after walking only ten steps, she suddenly stopped. At this time, Yun Shi also gently tugged on her sleeve: "Mother, that's not right.
ah……"
"That's wrong..." Su Han responded and immediately turned around to look at Yunzhu, who was being supported by Yunlan and walking slowly behind him.
"Xiao Zhuzhu, the sister who came to visit you in the house is your biological sister?" Su Han asked.
Yunzhu took two quick steps to come to her and shook his head: "No, she is my uncle's cousin, one year younger than me."
"Then let me ask you again, who sold you? Are they your biological parents?" Su Han said in a very gentle tone for fear of scaring her.
Yunzhu shook his head: "No, it was my uncle and aunt who sold all three of us brothers and sisters because the slave's parents died unexpectedly and owed a lot of money to others. The uncle's family was unable to repay it, saying it was to pay off the debt."
Su Han couldn't help but feel pain in her heart. She was really sad about Yunzhu's life experience, but she still asked: "What did your parents do before they were alive? How could you owe so much money?"
Yunzhu blinked and replied: "I remember that I ran an escort agency..."
"Escort agency? What's your name?" Su Han asked again.
"Okay, it seems to be called... Weiyuan... because my father's name is Lu Weiyuan, my mother's name is Fang Yinghua, my brother's name is Lu Zhenlin, and my little sister's name is... Lu Runzhi." Yunzhu replied softly.
Su Hanqing frowned and said: "Even if you owe a debt because of the loss of your escort, you don't need to sell your children to pay off the debt. For such a big escort agency, you can almost raise more by selling houses and land. Selling your children? Yunlan,
Send a message to Feng Qingge, search for the Weiyuan Escort Agency in the entire county, then check for Yunzhu's uncle, and report back to me."
"Yes, Princess!" Yunlan pulled Yunzhu and turned to leave.
Yun Shi said: "It seems that the people in our house are also being targeted."
"Then let's conduct a thorough investigation so that everyone can live in peace of mind." Su Han took her, turned around and continued walking towards Hanzhu Pavilion.
