He closed "Woman's Ring" in a hurry.
"There must be something more to this." His face was livid and he frowned.
"Eldest Miss, don't be angry, it might harm your body." Seeing Yu Yu's anger, Xiao Lan quickly came over to console him.
Yu Yu furrowed her eyebrows, her face covered with a layer of icy cold air. She slammed the table, causing the water in the teacup to splash out. There must be something fishy going on here. The more we hide in the manor, the more it means that there's something wrong. I must find out the truth to comfort my mother's soul in heaven. "
"Xiao Lan wiped the table and handed me another cup of tea." First Miss, don't worry. Drink some tea and calm down. "
Her face was still ugly, but she knew that anger couldn't solve anything. After calming down a little, she took a sip from her teacup.
"Eldest Miss, old master is indeed going too far. This deceased lady is after all the Eldest Miss's mother, how could a daughter not worry about her mother?" What's more, Madam has somehow passed away. "
Xiao Lan stood to the side and whispered.
Yu Yu bit his lips, his expression somewhat relaxed.
"Xiao Lan, there are too many secrets in the Prime Minister's Estate. I can only investigate this myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to find out." Ye Zichen let out a sigh, but her expression was firm.
Xiao Lan thought for a moment and suddenly thought of something. She hurriedly said, "Eldest Miss, this servant has heard the Young Master mention something about the late Lady Yu."
"Oh? What did Young Master Xiao say? " Yu Yu's face changed as he asked hastily.
"I've only heard the young master mention it before. He said that Madam Xian's identity may not be ordinary." Little Lan reported truthfully. Xiao Yun Chen had indeed mentioned the late Lady Yu, but he had only mentioned it once. As a slave, Xiao Lan couldn't ask too much.
Surprised, she immediately thought of the slip of paper inside the ruby and gold hairpin that Imperial Concubine Liu had given her. The words on it were rather strange. Xiao Yun Chen had also told him that it was from the previous dynasty. Could it be that the secrets of her mother were hidden within it?
"Xiao Lan, can you contact your young master?" As he was speaking, he suddenly pulled Xiao Lan's arm, looking at her with an urgent expression on his face.
"Eldest Miss, don't worry. This servant has a way." Xiao Lan pursed her lips and smiled lightly, "Eldest Miss, please write a letter. Xiao Lan will be responsible for transmitting it to Young Master."
These days, Xiao Lan had already known about this young miss' personality. As long as she was loyal to her and was quick on the uptake, she would gain her young miss's appreciation.
"Alright. "Pen and ink, waiting on you." She was overjoyed. She had never been so anxious to see Xiao Yun Chen before.
Xiao Lan took the brush, ink and paper and stood to the side to help Wu Yu study the ink.
Yu Yu pondered for a moment, then wrote down a few small words. After reading it for a bit, he folded it and handed it to Xiao Lan.
"Do not let anyone else find out about this note." A warning with a serious expression.
"Don't worry, Eldest Miss. I guarantee you that there will be no mistakes." Xiao Lan nodded in agreement.
That night, Xiao Lan sent Xiao Yun a message with her carrier pigeon.
When Xiao Yun Chen learned that he was going to meet him, he quickly replied and arranged to meet him at the Pure Wind House the next day.
That night, he didn't sleep at all.
The original owner's memories of his childhood were truly too little, but the bits and pieces that he remembered were still very clear.
The original owner was only three or four years old and did not know how dangerous life was. Her mother, the Xie Clan, loved her dearly. Every day when she had time, she would accompany her to play and even personally make snacks for her.
These four short years were the happiest and most unforgettable times for the original owner and his mother.
The next day, Yu Yu intentionally changed into a suit of men's clothing and went out through the small door at the back of the residence after dressing up for a bit.
Xiao Yun Chen was already waiting at the Clear Wind Restaurant.
The environment of the Pure Wind House was elegant. There were not many guests in the morning, so it was very quiet.
He specially instructed the waiter to find a remote and elegant room on the second floor, then poured himself a cup of wine to savor.
Although this private room was located at the end of the second floor, it was also right next to the street. Looking around, one could see everything on the street.
He poured and drank two cups himself, not in a hurry.
Normally, he would intentionally get close to her, but today, he took the initiative to invite her to meet him. Actually, what this woman was most concerned about wasn't that hard to guess.
Just as he was drinking alone, the door suddenly opened, and a person walked in. Xiao Yun Chen looked over and saw a man walking in with his back to him.
"Young master …" Xiao Yun Chen was about to ask the man if he had entered the wrong room, but the person turned around and revealed a serious expression.
"What a handsome young master." He was stunned for a moment. Then, his eyes lit up as he clapped his hands and smiled.
The person who came was Yu Yu who was disguised. Dressed in men's clothing, she looked valiant and valiant, as well as extraordinarily handsome. There was even a heroic air between her eyebrows, making her look extremely natural and unrestrained.
A hint of a smile appeared on Xiao Yun Chen's face.
"I wonder how many men I admire and how many women I arouse in my men's attire."
"Young Master Xiao must be joking." He curled his lips and sat down.
"When have I ever lied in front of you?" Xiao Yun Chen said with a smile on his face, his eyes filled with admiration.
Yu Yu glanced at him and said indifferently: "Young Master Xiao looks like you're in a good mood today."
"Naturally. You're so anxious to see me, do you miss me? " Xiao Yun Chen smiled as he walked over.
Chu Yu hurriedly moved his body to the side and frowned. With a straight face, he berated: "Young Master Xiao, please behave yourself."
"Look at you. Originally, you had a handsome face. However, this displeasure caused you to be extremely ugly." Xiao Yun Chen rubbed his nose and smiled.
"Today, I asked Young Master Xiao to meet me because I have something important to discuss with you. Young Master Xiao still remember the slip of paper that I let you check the last time, right?" His gaze fell on his face.
"Yes, yes. I have already told Miss Yu Yu that the words on it were from the previous dynasty. "
Xiao Yun Chen waved his fan. No wonder she was so anxious to meet him. She had really come for this. There must be too many secrets involved in this note.
"Actually, I have something I don't understand." A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and his expression turned serious.
"Worse than what Miss has to say." Xiao Yun Chen faced her gaze and saw the rarely seen grave expression on her face. He lowered his eyes and smiled, his gaze inadvertently sweeping towards the medicine store on the corner of the street.
At the entrance of the medicine store, a woman was walking out in a hurry.
"Sigh, that seems to be the wife of the Prime Minister's wife."
Xiao Yun Chen pointed at the street and curiously peeked his head out to look.
Following the direction of Xiao Yunchen's finger, Su Yan was able to recognize that the old woman was Zhao Yuanzhi's mother at first glance.
