Su Luo had been in Zhenninghou Mansion for five years, and she had never been so close to Chen Heng.
Not to mention that Chen Heng was always cold and cold. Even if Chen Heng occasionally looked friendly, she would always keep her distance.
From the bottom of her heart, she had a knowledge that she could not get too close without getting married. Perhaps because of this knowledge, every time Chen Heng wanted to get closer, she would subconsciously avoid it.
But she and Xiao Yu didn't get married, not even an engagement, so she wasn't sure whether Xiao Yu was playing with her feelings.
But Xiao Yu is like a cup of poison, deadly and tempting.
Those peach blossom eyes were slightly lowered, looking at her with a twinkling look, making her reluctant to refuse and reluctant to run away.
She actually wanted to get close to Xiao Yu from the bottom of her heart.
That kind of mood was completely different from when facing Chen Heng.
Jinbao brought six or seven people over, but instead of taking Su Luo away, he killed all of them. Those six or seven people gave Jinbao a chance to escape with their lives, and he fled Chunxi Town in embarrassment and panic.
"Follow me?" Ping An stood beside Xiao Yu, waiting for Xiao Yu's orders.
Xiao Yu glanced at the six corpses in the yard and said, "No, just take care of them here."
When Ping An started killing, Xiao Yu asked Su Zimu and Xiao Zhuzi to go down. They were still too young, so they could just watch the fight and avoid killing.
"You deal with this. After you finish it, find someone suitable to deliver today's sewer for the princess. I'll go to Wang Changmin's place." Xiao Yu ordered, flicking the dust off his sleeves, and walked out.
Ping An rolled his eyes behind him.
This person hasn't been brought back to Beijing yet, but the word "wangfei" can be pronounced smoothly.
There was a strange old man living at the end of the small street. Ping An went to investigate several times and basically confirmed that the strange old man was Wang Changmin.
Xiao Yu knocked at the door three or five times, but refused to hear any movement inside. He lost his patience and simply tiptoed and flew out into the yard.
As soon as he landed, he met Wang Changmin, who was sweeping the yard with a big broom in his hand.
Xiao Yu:......
"You are in the yard, why don't you open the door?"
Wang Changmin:......
Is it reasonable for you to climb over the wall to gain access to your home?
Clutching the big broom, Wang Changmin had a paralyzed face and a single eyelid, and glared at Xiao Yu fiercely, "Get out."
Xiao Yu clicked his tongue and didn't roll away. He glanced at the black mud under the courtyard wall and pointed out the topic, "Since Mr. Wang still cares about water transport, why doesn't he want to return to the imperial court?"
Wang Changmin was shocked, his back stiffened, and a look of shock and panic appeared on his face almost all at once.
"Who are you?"
Xiao Yu didn't say anything about the twists and turns, and Wang Changmin didn't refute anything. He just clutched the broom tightly and breathed heavily.
Xiao Yu curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled wildly, "Me? Do you still remember the general Xiao Jiyuan who died tragically on the battlefield five years ago? My father."
Xiao Yu didn't say that he was the eldest princess's son, but directly mentioned General Xiao.
The loose flesh under Wang Changmin's eyes trembled hard, and even his breathing was erratic, "Are you... Lao Xiao's son? You..."
"You want to say that I am still alive? Is it an accident? Yes, I am still alive. Not only alive, but also getting married soon." Xiao Yu twirled his fingertips, "I am alive, but Mr. Wang is half dead?"
Wang Changmin seemed to be in disbelief at Xiao Yu's identity, and kept staring at him, his cloudy old eyes shining with a light that did not match his face, as if he wanted to see through Xiao Yu to distinguish the authenticity.
Xiao Yu sighed.
"After my father passed away, I did almost die several times, but I am living well now. If you want to live, you have to fight for yourself. If you don't fight for anything and just hide from the world in such a muddle, you will not only be sorry for yourself, but also
I'm sorry for those who died, don't you think so, Mr. Wang?"
Hot tears fell from Wang Changmin's eyes immediately. His eyes turned red and he tightened his fists.
Xiao Yu glanced at him and walked towards the pile of black mud piled at the base of the wall, while saying: "I know that Mr. Wang had some friendship with my father before he was alive, but I don't know much. After all, you were already dead before my father's accident."
Well, then I was busy trying to survive, and I didn’t have much time to check whether you were really dead or faked.
If it hadn't been for the sudden appearance of Xiao Zhuzi this time, I wouldn't have known that Mr. Wang and I were so close.
How about it, now that I have made my identity clear to you, Sir Wang still wants to expel people?"
Walking to the base of the wall, Xiao Yu squatted down and looked at the black mud piled there. It could be seen that it was all dug from the dock. Judging from the dryness of the black mud, it was probably dug in the past two days.
.
Xiao Yu stood up and looked back at Wang Changmin.
Wang Changmin loosened his grip, and the broom in his hand fell to the ground, hitting his feet.
Xiao Yu didn't know whether it hurt or not, but Wang Changmin's face showed no expression at all. He was silent for a long time, and then asked in a hoarse voice: "What do you want to do?"
Xiao Yu said: "I want to check Jinnan Pier."
"The Emperor asked you to investigate?" Wang Changmin's eyes were full of resentment and ridicule.
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I guess he asked me to check it."
"Really?"
"Even if he doesn't let me check, I will still check. Nowadays, the aristocratic family has a monopoly on water transportation. It is difficult to break the monopoly. It is imperative to reopen water transportation.
Even if the emperor doesn't issue an order now, I will have a way to make him have to issue an order in a few months, but it just so happens that he himself wants to restart water transportation."
Wang Changmin looked at Xiao Yu.
That night, he suddenly fainted. When he woke up, he was looking for Xiao Zhuzi in a hurry, but later he saw Xiao Yu in the crowd.
He was shocked, there was such a coincidence in the world, how could this young man look so similar to that bitch Xiao Jiyuan when he was young.
He didn't think much about it at that time.
After being absent from the court for a long time, even the most basic sensitive judgment has been lost.
Until now, Wang Changmin clearly felt that this was Xiao Jiyuan's son.
"Your brother..."
Xiao Yu's originally casual expression paused for a moment, and a look flashed through his eyes, but the emotion dissipated so quickly that Wang Changmin didn't even have time to see it clearly, and heard Xiao Yu sneer: "Our family's life is poor, my father died tragically on the battlefield,
My brother...my brother slipped and fell into the water and couldn't be saved. Now the only ones left in the family are my mother and me. Well, there will also be my wife soon."
As a joke, Xiao Yu dropped the topic.
"Master Wang was brutally murdered back then. It wasn't just the family that wanted to attack you, right? Master Wang went to Jinnan secretly. At that time, you had already been explicitly ordered to be grounded by the emperor. If someone hadn't deliberately leaked Master Wang's whereabouts, the family would have
It is impossible to know that Mr. Wang came to investigate the dock.
The person who leaked Mr. Wang’s whereabouts to the noble family was not your follower Wang Er.
It’s the Emperor.”
Xiao Yu didn't even use questions, but directly stated.
