The old man was dressed in rough black clothing and had a stalled back. He walked briskly and his eyes were like torches. Other than his slightly aged appearance and hair, the aura around him looked very much like a thirty year old man.
Gu Shiyi's face was filled with astonishment, how could this person recognize her? Was it related to Situ Jing?
Thinking about that, Gu Shiyi turned and look at Situ Jing, seeing that he was calm and collected, he knew that he guessed right.
"Your Highness, are you satisfied with the reception?"
Seeing that Gu Shiyi and Situ Jing were ignoring him, the old man walked to the front of the two, and bowed and asked.
"Third Elder Yu, compared to the benefits the Yu Family received from the Ning Family, this little thing is a little too shabby!"
Situ Jing did not even glance at him, his movements was casual. He poured himself and Gu Shiyi a cup of tea, then placed the cup to his lips and slowly drank!
Old Yu's eyes only flickered a little when Situ Jing mentioned the word 'Ning Family,' but he had always been very calm.
On the other hand, countless questions instantly emerged in Gu Shiyi's mind. Could it be that this person was one of the people Ning Qingqing relied on?
"Your highness really knows how to joke. In this world, who doesn't know that the Ning Family has been seized more than twenty years ago. Where did the Yu Family come from to obtain benefits from the Ning Family?"
When Situ Jing mentioned the word Ning Family, Old Yu's expression immediately became nervous, and his palms started sweating as well.
"Have you taken it or not? You and This King know what to do. Don't worry, This King did not come here today. I am here for revenge!"
With that, Situ Jing looked at Gu Shiyi with a doting expression. Through this look, Gu Shiyi was able to deduce all the questions in her mind one by one. It was just that, Situ Jing, why did he know about it but not mention anything to her?
"Your Highness Prince Su sure knows how to joke around. The Yu Family resides in seclusion for the new year, and has always been free from worldly affairs. Could it be that Your Highness has remembered wrongly?"
Although the Yu Family was not under the jurisdiction of the Great Xia Kingdom Sun, with the name of Prince Su Situ Jing, with the current power of the Yu Family, they could not afford to offend him.
"It's not like I'm in my seventies or eighties. You should remember your brain quite clearly. Don't worry, I'm not here to seek revenge on your Yu clan!"
The corner of Situ Jing's mouth raised into a smile, looking at Yu Lao San's serious face, he could not help but laugh.
"Then who is Your Highness looking for?"
As Old Yu spoke, he rubbed his hands, his face full of flattery. In his heart, he was glad that it wasn't the Yu Family.
"Ning Qingqing!"
Situ Jing spoke in a relaxed manner, but Third Elder Yu's expression suddenly changed, after that, a trace of viciousness flashed past his eyes, and after considering for a moment, he finally opened his mouth.
"Good, he will be here soon, but your highness, you have to leave the valley as soon as possible!"
In any case, the Yu Family had already gotten what they needed from Ning Qingqing. And right now, other than having a few looks, she was of no use to him, so he would not fight with Situ Jing for the sake of a middle-aged lady named Xu.
"No problem!"
As expected, after two hours, Old Yu had tied Ning Qingqing up and brought him in front of Situ Jing. When Ning Qingqing saw Gu Shiyi for the first time, his eyes flashed for a moment before he quickly lowered his head.
At this moment, Gu Shiyi and Situ Jing were standing in a valley that was like a paradise. Before they left the valley, the three of them were asked to cover their eyes with a piece of black cloth, as they did not want the Yu Family's hidden place to be leaked to others.
Gu Shiyi and Situ Jing did not really care much. First, forget about Situ Jing, even if she could not see him, Gu Shiyi could still remember the route through her hearing, sense of smell, and touch. As a result, being covered in cloth was like not being covered in it, it did not affect her at all.
After another two hours, the three of them left the valley. However, the place they were at right now was actually the destroyed ruins of the Ning Family Villa. At the same time, there was a loud bang, and the tunnel started to collapse.
Water started to spread out from the ground, and if this continued, before long, the ruins would disappear as well. It seemed that the Yu family planned to destroy the tunnel that led to the Yu family.
She did not know how Qian Mian and Mo Sheng were doing. In any case, they were still Lan Yenao's men, and Gu Shiyi felt that she should be responsible for their safety.
In contrast, Situ Jing was completely satisfied. With the two not being around, he would be able to be alone with Gu Shiyi again, and as for their safety, Situ Jing was not worried at all. He believed that with their abilities, unless they met some hidden expert, they would be able to do whatever they wanted.
Ah!" After thinking for a long time, Ning Qingqing finally saw the place they were at. He knelt on the ground with a face full of despair and kept on shouting hysterically. At this moment, the hands that came from the tunnel were already wet enough to wet their shoes.
A knife was aimed at Ning Qingqing's neck. After knocking her out, she hugged Gu Shiyi with one hand and the other hand, and with a tap of her toes, they flew to the summit of the mountain.
In the small hut left behind by the hunters in the mountain, Gu Shiyi took the opportunity while Ning Qingqing was still awake to ask Situ Jing about the Yu Clan's matters. She discovered that it seemed that the matter regarding Ning Family was not as simple as she had thought.
"The Yu Family was a super family clan that was only second to Ning Family a hundred years ago. However, in order to avoid suspicion, they chose to retire and live in seclusion in the face of the chaos caused by a prince in the Great Yu. However, in these past few years, they relied on Ning Qingqing to obtain a batch of treasures that the ancestors of the Ning Family buried.
Actually, before entering the tunnel, Situ Jing did not connect the Yu Clan with the Yu Clan, but only because of the last choice of life and death, and the hall, did it leak out the Yu Clan. Speaking of which, during the three years that Gu Shiyi had disappeared, she had interacted with the Yu Clan a few times, and of course, it had caused them to suffer.
"The treasure trove of Ning Family?"
Gu Shiyi's eyes flashed with excitement. Speaking of which, why had she, who was part of the Ning Family, never heard of this?
"Legends say that two hundred years ago, the Ning Family's wealth had already reached an immeasurable level, to the point that it caused the Patriarch at that time to be troubled. Hence, they thought of dividing the Ning Family's wealth into three, and buried it in three different places!"
