Chapter 196

Chapter 190 Six

Yao Shouning had already thought about countermeasures when he came all the way, so when he heard his mother's question, he collected himself and replied:

"I met a friend and went out and bought two books."

Liu Shi was dubious.

"What friend?"

If she said to do other things, maybe Liu Shi didn't quite believe it.

But when Yao Shouning said that he went to buy two books, Liu's doubts immediately dissipated.

However, this little daughter is usually under strict control by her, and she spends a lot of time confinement at home on weekdays, and her friends and boudoir girl Liu Shi are all clear about it.

When she was visiting Wen's house today, she heard someone looking for Yao Shouning, and asked who it was, but the other party only called her surname Zhu, and the door guard didn't see the face of this 'Miss Zhu', but heard 'she 'The imposing manner of his speech was terrifying, and he immediately reciprocated without even daring to ask about his identity.

Liu Shi was suspicious at the time, but she didn't say anything in front of the Wen family.

Someone came to Wen's house to look for his daughter. Such a behavior was actually quite rude. Mrs. Wen must have been very unhappy in her heart because she didn't show her face at that time.

But she was used to pretending, with a smile on her face, only Yao Shouning was passed on.

If it is a sensible and obedient girl, she will definitely apologize and decline at this time, and it is okay to talk about it later.

Unexpectedly, Yao Shouning didn't understand Mrs. Wen's thoughts, after hearing the message from the servant, he actually went out to take a look, and said that it was indeed an old acquaintance, so he left Wen Jing and left with his siblings.

Although Wen Jingsui explained a few words later when he led Wen Xianrong back and forth, Mrs. Wen still had a grudge in her heart.

One is that she thought Yao Shouning was too rude at this time, coming and leaving as soon as he said, and he didn't say hello to the elders, it was really shameful.

Secondly, it was Wen Jingsui who spoke good words for Yao Shouning.

Although he said it lightly, Mrs. Wen knew her son well, and knew that he must be thinking about it.

Just as Mrs. Wen understands him, Wen Jingsui also understands his mother's temperament.

According to the usual situation, he should have kept silent and let Wen Xianrong coax people, so that Mrs. Wen would feel comfortable.

But at that time, Mrs. Liu was sitting beside her, and she was already a little embarrassed because of her daughter's departure. His words naturally eased Mrs. Liu's embarrassment, which made Mrs. Liu have a good impression of him.

This naturally took care of the face of the future mother-in-law, but it made Mrs. Wen very unhappy.

She thought that her son's heart had already been turned away before the future daughter-in-law got married.

Mrs. Liu has known this future in-law for many years, and saw that she was smiling reluctantly, so she sat down for a while and found an excuse to leave. Thinking of this on the way back, she felt something was wrong.

She didn't say anything in Wen's house at the time, but when she thought about her daughter's close friends, she became more and more suspicious of Miss Zhu's identity.

"It's a younger generation of the eldest princess."

Yao Shouning spoke out according to the excuse Lu Zhi made before he left, in order to deal with his mother's questioning.

"Really?"

Mrs. Liu still didn't believe it, so she raised her voice and asked.

Yao Shouning was very calm and nodded:

"Yeah." She said the excuse she thought along the way:
"This Miss Zhu was originally from Jiangzhou. She was given the surname Zhu by the Eldest Princess, and she was recognized as a junior follower."

According to Lu Zhi, he and the eldest princess have passed the gas, and he will lie for him. Yao Shouning is not afraid of Liu's inquiries, so he simply fabricated the identity of "Miss Zhu" to block Liu's questions.

She knew Liu's personality, so before she could ask questions one by one, she said first:

"I came to Shendu earlier because of the prince's poisoning and coma. I heard that I was there when the prince woke up, so I was curious and wanted to come and see me."

Mrs. Liu was still a little skeptical at first, but she saw that she explained the origin of 'Miss Zhu' clearly and logically, and it was true that the eldest princess sent troops to Beijing that day.

Seeing that Yao Shouning was very sure, there was no trace of guilt on his face.

Thinking back to how well-behaved she is recently, hiding in the room every day to copy books, and not going out for half a step, I believe it a little more in my heart.

But she didn't fully trust her, so she changed the question again:
"Did you encounter any strange things when you went out today?"

She seemed to just say it casually, but Yao Shouning thought of what Dong Kui said when he returned home earlier, and couldn't help but jump in his heart, but he pretended to be a little dazed:

"Strange thing?" She tilted her head and thought for a while:
"Meet a Taoist priest."

"What's so strange about meeting a Taoist priest?" Hearing this, Mrs. Liu couldn't help shaking her head.

Because the current emperor took the lead in cultivating Taoism, Daqing emphasized Taoism more than Confucianism, and there were many Taoist temples, including the large and small Taoist temples in Shendu City. It is not uncommon to meet Taoist priests on the street.

"What is that mother referring to?" Yao Shouning pretended not to know, and then listened to Liu's words:
"I heard that a carriage broke down on the other side of Zhuzhu Lane. There were two ladies sitting in the carriage, and they were still tugging when they fell out."

This is also where Liu Shi suspected Yao Shouning.

She was picked up by a carriage, and the person who picked her up happened to be a "Miss", not to mention that the incident happened not long after Yao Shouning left Wen's house, and the place was not far away, so it was naturally difficult for the Liu family. trust it completely.

"Is there such a thing?"

When Yao Shouning said this, he glanced at Su Miaozhen.

With a smile on her face, she squeezed the embroidery band in her hands, and listened quietly to the conversation between the mother and daughter without making a sound, as if she had been focusing on her own embroidery work.

But Yao Shouning noticed that since he entered the room, she had never used a needle again.

"I didn't hear about it. Fortunately, our carriage was not broken. After I bought the book, Miss Zhu sent me back."

Yao Shouning felt that her lies must have reached the peak, because among the many things she said, except for meeting a Taoist priest, none of them were true.

But after Su Miaozhen heard this, her 'consciousness' did not make a rebuttal sound.

For the first time, she realized that this "consciousness" is not so omnipotent, as if "it" also has certain restrictions, it seems that it has been shielded by something, and it cannot pry into her heart and today's meeting with Lu Zhi .

For some reason, as soon as this thought came to her, she remembered the nightmare she had when Su Miaozhen knocked on the door the night before the winter solstice, as if today's result was related to that dream, but she also said for a while what the specific connection was. unclear.

At this point, the doubts in Liu's heart were temporarily appeased. Although she still had a vague premonition, Yao Shouning answered fluently, and the guard at the gate did indeed say that the little girl was brought back by a carriage.

As for whether it was the Wen family's car before, Liu didn't see it with her own eyes, and she wasn't quite sure, but she still didn't ask further.

"That's good."

She nodded and was about to speak when she heard Fengchun shouting outside:

"Miss."

It was Yao Wanning who came over!
Yao Ruoyun came with her.

When the two brothers and sisters entered the room one after another, Su Miaozhen, who was sitting on the kang holding the embroidery, lowered her head.

Her face seemed to be covered with a shadow. When Yao Shouning looked at her, he saw that the shadow turned into red hair on her originally white face, and a sharp mouth emerged from her nose and lips.

A phantom of a monster with a red face and a long nose appeared on her face, her eyes glowed red, and she looked at Yao Ruoyun:
"After you complete the task, I will solve this person for you!"

The monster shadow moved its lips and made a shrill sound.
