Chapter 225: Observing the Stars at Night, Destined to Be Wealthy
Of course, the lackey lived up to the task. He stood on his two legs and insisted on running around the front yard outside the Ning Wang Mansion twice.
Everyone: ...
This lackey has become a spirit.
For the sake of Lord White Tiger, the lackey said he would even taste his shit...
Zhu Jinyou is having a headache now. Song Si understands that His Royal Highness Prince Ning is psychologically traumatized.
Luo Yu took the opportunity to say, "If His Royal Highness Prince Ning thinks it is inappropriate to take in a group of us, we can move out on our own.
The dogleg has a deep bond with us, and its former master is my friend. I will not ignore these three girls."
Zhu Jinyou's pupils widened: "Three girls?"
He has always been very good at judging people, but how could he make a mistake this time?
Yan Xuan and Bai Lingyi looked at each other. It seemed that they hadn't recognized their gender all along?
Xia Liang grabbed her messy hair and said cheerfully, "I'm sorry, Your Highness Prince Ning, for causing you trouble. If you don't mind the three of us sisters, I'm willing to live in Prince Ning's mansion."
Song Si: Where did this madman come from?
Qin Bingrui didn't bother to pay attention to them. He put his arm around Xia Liang's shoulders. Luo Yu walked over and held the two children's hands. They were as warm as a family.
Zhu Jinyou saw this and snorted privately: "They don't mind the dirt."
Yan Xuan also followed them to Yinyue Courtyard. Zhu Jinyou stopped him and said, "Yan Xuan, are you really not going back to Beijing? Is it because of that lackey?"
Yan Xuan nodded and shook his head, not knowing whether to say it or not. He scratched his head and said, "She said her name was Xia Cao."
Zhu Jinyou's eyes suddenly darkened.
"Okay. Yan Xuan, don't go in and out of the courtyard where the woman lives."
"Yes."
Zhu Jinyou just didn't want Yan Xuan to tell Qin Bingrui what he had said to him.
This girl named Xia Cao came to the door on her own initiative. It seems that she must have known these two girls before...
Zhu Jinyou becomes more and more interested in understanding their deepest secrets...
The surname Xia isn't a common one, so how could it be such a coincidence? Zhu Jinyou had a playful smile on his face. Miss Luo Yu was truly a mysterious woman...
-
Then Luo Yu took Xia Liang to his room and asked Xiao Tao to help wash the two little ones.
After the maids prepared a large wooden tub of bath water, Luo Yu asked them to leave.
Xia Liang took off all her clothes and got into the tub. The smell on her body was so strong that Luo Yu took several steps back.
"Sister, can you wipe my back? I must be covered in mud and it must be very heavy."
"..."
After a while, Luo Yu came back to his senses and asked her, "Xia Liang, did anything get leaked along the way? And how did you meet Yan Xuan and the others?"
"We just happened to meet, but the lackey insisted on following me. Sister, is it because I still have the White Tiger's aura on me? That's why the lackey recognized me?"
Luo Yu shook her head. She was also confused about this bug ability.
"Sister, I suddenly remembered something."
"what's up?"
"When that brat Yan Xuan asked me my name, I almost let it slip. Luckily, I changed my tune in time and said my name was Xia Cao."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yu slapped his hand on the water in the bucket, splashing a pool of water, all of which fell on Xia Liang's face.
"Sister, the water is so dirty, and you hit me in the face."
"This is just to teach you a lesson." Luo Yu calmed down and sighed, "There's really no other way. The three of us can only go back to what we said before, so as not to let Zhu Jinyou find out too soon."
"Sister, you seem afraid that he will know?"
"We haven't found the time and space chassis. Every situation is fatal. Especially for someone like him who came from the imperial city, he is the greatest danger."
"Sister, I looked at him with human eyes today and found that he is really a handsome guy, young and sexy. Why don't you find a way to take him in? Wouldn't it be safe for us?"
"It seems you've forgotten his ruthlessness and cruelty when he shot the white tiger with his barbed arrow?"
"So, sister, you have to find a way to take him in and prevent him from trying to kill us."
"..."
After taking a shower, Xia Liang stood up from the tub, looked at the pair of A's on her chest, and sighed: "Sister, look at my strong body, but I have a pair of underdeveloped A's. It will be difficult for me to fall in love in the future."
Luo Yu chuckled: "You are still young, just take care of yourself."
"Sister, is yours grown? Has it reached B?"
After a while, he sighed and said, "I really envy Brother Bingrui's pair of Ds."
"Hers should be pectoral muscles."
"..."
Xia Liang put on the skirt that her sister Luo Yu had prepared for her, and then looked at her face, which was as black as a piece of charcoal, and couldn't bear to look at it.
"Sister, I think I need to whiten my skin in Prince Ning's Mansion before I can leave. Otherwise, it will be so ugly that I don't want to look at my face directly."
Luo Yu comforted her: "Don't worry, we can't leave for a while. Besides, Xia Liang has a very heroic face now, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. She is a very lovely girl!"
"I know I'm not ugly, but look at me, I'm short and dark, really. Otherwise, I would seduce the handsome Prince Ning!"
Luo Yu: ...
After dinner, Luo Yu and Xia Liang were invited into the main hall by His Royal Highness Prince Ning.
Yan Xuan is also there.
Xia Liang saw Yan Xuan and stuck out his tongue at him. This guy must be asking for his life.
When Yan Xuan saw Xia Liang dressed as a woman, he was stunned at first, then he noticed that Miss Xia Cao was glaring at him fiercely.
Zhu Jinyou lazily leaned back in his chair. After Luo Yu and Xia Liang had bowed, he asked, "What's your name, young lady? Where do you live?"
Xia Liang thought that he probably wouldn't check the household registration?
But Sister Luo Yu had already told her not to continue making up stories.
"My name is Hu Daya, and my two sisters are Hu Erya and Hu Sanya."
Yan Xuan heard it and felt something was wrong.
"That's not what you told me before."
"I didn't know you before, so of course I couldn't tell you my real name, so I just made up a random name."
Zhu Jinyou's brows moved slightly and he glanced at Luo Yu.
Luo Yu immediately shifted his gaze and didn't even want to look at him.
"Oh, then why did you casually say your last name was Xia?"
"I like summer, so why not? Besides, my sister and I are registered here, and we have real names. There's no chance of fakes."
She doesn't think too much when she speaks and doesn't behave in a very polite manner. She really does look like a country girl.
However, these words must have been said to Miss Luo Yu. Zhu Jinyou couldn't help but snort. This was better. He was more certain that they had known each other before.
But so what if I know him? Are you afraid that he will know something?
When Yan Xuan saw Xia Liang take out her household registration certificate, he immediately walked over and took a look. It turned out that her name was indeed Hu Daya, a real country girl.
Yan Xuan felt inexplicably lost.
Xia Liang snatched the household registration certificate from Yan Xuan, put it away, and glared at him fiercely.
Yan Xuan was puzzled. This crazy girl really looked down on everyone.
Xia Liang knew that Zhu Jinyou would continue to be suspicious, so he began to repeat what Sister Luo Yu had told him one by one.
"Your Highness Prince Ning, Sister Luo Yu and I have actually met. A long time ago, she was brought to our Shili Village, and we spent some time together. Back then, she called me Xia Cao. She said she particularly liked names with the character 'Xia' in them. She said my name, Hu Daya, didn't sound nice, and she hoped I would be like a summer grass, which can't be burned by wildfires but will grow again in the spring breeze."
Luo Yu smiled and looked at Zhu Jinyou with a provocative look. How about it, is it back to normal?
You won't be able to find any flaws at all.
Zhu Jinyou's lips curled up. "If that's the case, then why didn't you recognize me just now? It seems to me that you took the initiative to go to Jiangzhou City to find Miss Luo Yu. How did you know she was here?"
After saying this, he looked at Luo Yu's face intentionally or unintentionally.
She was unusually calm.
"What luck! I can observe the stars at night. Jiangzhou City is a treasure land for me. It will bring me wealth and honor. I didn't expect that it would be as I wished. I met Sister Luo Yu here."
"Well, since you can observe the stars at night, prove it to me now."
"Small idea."
Animals have a very accurate perception of the weather. Not only has the ability to cool down in the summer not diminished, but the perception has increased. It seems that supernatural powers are still useful!
What's more, she can understand the animal language of all animals, so it's not a big deal to ask her anything.
Wait until they reach the front yard.
Xia Liang looked at the sea of stars and reported the positions and names of the stars known in ancient times one by one. It turned out that the sky in ancient times was really beautiful, and the stars were visible to the naked eye.
"I calculated with my fingers that tomorrow will be a good day!"
"..."
Xia Liang blinked suddenly and smiled, "If I'm not mistaken, the heavy snow in the capital will come early this year. It may snow in early October. This winter will be particularly cold!"
When Luo Yu heard this, he murmured, "Then we must hurry up and make our iron stove. This is a good business."
Yan Xuan was stunned. Is Miss Luo Yu always thinking about doing big business?
Xia Liang was very excited when she heard this: "Sister, we can also make a kang, which is more practical for people in the countryside."
Zhu Jinyou: ...
On the way back, Xia Liang followed Yan Xuan and muttered.
"Yan Xuan, no matter what the situation is, can you please stop talking nonsense?"
"What did I say?"
"Do you dare to say that you were not the one who told His Royal Highness Prince Ning?"
Yan Xuan was curious. This girl from the country was not afraid of His Royal Highness Prince Ning at all?
"Why don't you look like a country girl who has never seen the world?"
Xia Liang snorted and laughed: "How should I put it? I can actually predict the affairs of any of you, but unfortunately the secret cannot be revealed. Tell me, what do I have to be afraid of?"
"Just talk nonsense."
"Are you the second child in the family? Your elder brother is now guarding the northwest frontier, right?"
"Everyone knows about this if they ask around."
"Your brother's wife died of illness two years ago, leaving behind only two little ones, a boy and a girl, neither of whom are yet six years old, right? Your brother couldn't return to the capital to look after them, so you were determined to take his place and go to the border to fight the enemy."
These were all the family matters that Yan Xuan talked about with Baihu when he was bored at Fang's house.
"How did you know?"
"I calculated it. I can predict everything about your family. Please be polite to me from now on and don't complain about me all the time..."
……
Zhu Jinyou walked in front, and Luo Yu kept a distance from him.
Xia Liang and Yan Xuan's conversation was very quiet, and it was estimated that only Luo Yu could hear the general idea.
Luo Yu wanted to remind Xia Liang that this child was a little fearless when he first traveled through time and space as an ancient person, and he was afraid that he might accidentally arouse someone's suspicion.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and pretended to cough.
Xia Liang was teaching Yan Xuan a lesson and didn't pay attention to her.
Luo Yu was walking forward, but his head was always looking back.
As a result, he bumped directly into the chest of the person in front of him.
This old man was just walking, how could he suddenly stop?
Luo Yu stepped back and touched his nose. The collision was a bit heavy. This man's chest must be made of iron.
"Miss Bai, is your throat uncomfortable?"
Zhu Jinyou patted his chest with a look of disgust.
Luo Yu raised her head and stared at his face, trying to speak calmly: "No, I bumped into Your Highness just now. It was my fault. I am so disrespectful."
When Xia Liang saw this scene, he covered his mouth and laughed, then pulled Yan Xuan and secretly turned a corner.
Yan Xuan looked questioning: "What are you doing?"
"Let my sister and His Royal Highness Prince Ning be alone, do you understand?"
"But Miss Bai already has Mr. Murong."
"You know shit. I support her and His Royal Highness Prince Ning." Only in this way can the three of them be safe.
Xia Liang muttered silently in his heart: Mr. Murong, I'm so sorry. Although you are a good person, I can't stand on your side for the time being.
……
Zhu Jinyou stared at Luo Yu's face for a long time without saying a word.
His silence was so quiet that Luo Yu seemed to hear only the sound of their two heartbeats.
"If your Highness has nothing else to do, I will go back to my room and rest."
"Those words you just said were what you taught Miss Hu Daya to say, right?"
Luo Yu stopped and asked with a smile: "No matter what I do, Your Highness will not believe me, right?"
"I never like people deceiving me."
"Your Highness, have you ever thought that sometimes the truth is ridiculous? What's the point of you being so obsessed with who I am?
I will do my best to help you with whatever you want. Apart from that, I am myself, not your vassal, and there is no need for me to be respectful to you like your subordinates.
If you attempt to use your authority to threaten or oppress me, then our deal ends here. You must understand that what you lose isn't wealth, but the code that will allow this dynasty to rise."
Luo Yu raised his eyebrows, and his tone finally became a little angry.
"Oh. It seems you are very confident."
"Yes, I am confident that I can use the skills taught by my master to change this era. If Your Highness Prince Ning believes in me, I will serve you. If you don't, then you can send me back to the capital, and I will not hold any grudges against you."
Zhu Jinyou was silent.
He really saw the sea of stars in her eyes.
She actually wanted to change this dynasty by her own strength.
"Then Miss Luo Yu, what exactly do you want to change?"
“Let everyone have access to education and food.”
"This is something that the current emperor should think about."
"This has nothing to do with me. I am just fulfilling my master's long-cherished wish."
Luo Yu could only take a gamble. He hoped that King Ning would stand on her side this time and at least help her find the time and space chassis. If she really couldn't change the constraints of the dynasty, escaping from here would be fine.
"Okay, since you are determined, I want to see what you can do."
