Chapter 98
In the afternoon of the next day, the sun shone through the window and filled the room. Ye Lingwu took care of Mrs. Shen after her lunch break and went out alone.

Xuanwu Long Street.

The Ye family's carriage was waiting at the intersection early.

Standing under the carriage, Mother Qiu saw Ye Lingwu coming for the appointment, and said excitedly: "The eldest girl is here! Come on, get on the carriage, it's really hard for you to make this trip."

Ye Lingwu ignored her, and stepped on the horse stool to get into the carriage. Liu Yuping was also there, dressed just like yesterday, looking very pleasing to the eye, and carrying a basket of food in her arms, presumably for her little brother of.

As the carriage staggered away, Ye Lingwu glanced at Liu Yuping's stomach, and said, "Ms. Liu, why bother to follow me this trip? In your heart, your unworthy younger brother is more important than the child in your belly?"

Liu Yuping smiled and said: "What did the eldest girl say? The child between me and the lord is naturally my heart, but I thought it would be wrong for the eldest girl to go to prison alone, so I accompanied him."

Ye Lingwu frowned, and mocked: "So, I have to thank Mrs. Liu for her compassion."

Liu Yuping choked, and lowered her eyes pitifully: "I understand that the eldest girl never wants to see me or the Liu family, and I also understand that you are still angry with the lord because I sent you to Qingquan Temple. Feeling guilty..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Lingwu's sudden movement of pushing open the window—the long street was still full of smoke and fire, and there were many pedestrians, and shouting was indispensable in the streets and alleys.

Seeing that she ignored her, Liu Yuping turned her head in embarrassment.

After driving for nearly an hour, the Kaiyang Gate on the south side of the capital was right in front of us. There were four tall and huge towers on the city tower. Under the dark sky, the black clusters looked down on the city like four beasts with teeth and claws.

Zhao Prison allowed prison visits, but the procedure was complicated and cost some money. Even so, the visit time should not exceed the time of a cup of tea. Liu Yuping gave the gatekeeper a lot of money, and she was willing to accommodate for a quarter of an hour only after her mouth was worn out.

In the dark corridor, there are walls on one side and cages on the other. I don’t know how many people are locked in the cages. It’s so dark that you can’t see clearly. The only thing that can be sure that there are people inside is the breathing sound like a wild animal.

The prison envoy led the three of them all the way to the innermost place, and Mother Qiu protected Liu Yuping intentionally or unintentionally, like an old chicken protecting a cub.

Ye Lingwu followed behind them, absent-minded.

In fact, she shouldn't have come here, but she couldn't be so free and easy as not to hear things outside the window.

The names of Song Yun and Shen Zheng were engraved on that jade pendant, but her mother never mentioned Mr. Shen in front of her. She was curious and wondered if there was any real story between these two people.

Ye Lingwu sighed and suddenly thought of Sun Kunqian.

He knew Song Yun and Shen Zheng, and even asked himself about their relationship with her.

Could it be that he knows something?
Just as she was thinking wildly, a few "bang bang" sounds suddenly came from her ears. Ye Lingwu raised her head, and saw the jailer pat the iron cage a few times, and said, "Liu Yuxian, your sister has come to visit the prison."

Ye Lingwu looked through the darkness, and saw a slovenly man in white prison clothes, with disheveled hair, suddenly appeared beside the cage, with vicissitudes written all over his face: "Sister! Sister! You are finally here! If you don't come to me again! I'm dying!"

"What are you calling for?!" The warden slapped the cage again, causing Liu Yuxian to shrink back in fright, and almost sat down on the ground.

Liu Yuping felt distressed when she saw it, and directly put the jade bracelet on her wrist into the prisoner's hand, and said, "Brother prisoner, let's be flexible, we want to talk to him alone, just for a while, it won't be too long."

The prison envoy weighed the jade bracelet twice, and said: "Okay, you guys speak quickly, don't talk for too long to make it hard for me."

After finishing speaking, the prison envoy put the jade bracelet into his bosom and left.

When Liu Yuxian saw the prison envoy leave, tears and snot all flowed out, and he cried bitterly: "Sister, why did you come here, your brother, I would rather die than live in this Zhao prison, if you come one day later, you will give it to me directly next year." It’s good to burn incense.”

People in their decades cried like seven or eight-year-old children, and Ye Lingwu covered the sneer at the corner of her mouth with silk.

Liu Yuping opened the basket in her bosom, and while taking out the steaming cakes inside, she said angrily, "Okay, okay, don't cry, if you knew today, you shouldn't have made it What kind of business! Now the Ye family has to be implicated by you."

Liu Yuxian squatted down and picked up the pastry, gulping it down like a starved ghost reincarnated, until he couldn't hold it in his mouth, only to find that there was a girl standing behind Liu Yuping.

He stared at it with wide eyes, dropped the pastry in his hand, and was so happy that he was a little crazy: "Niece, this is my eldest niece who enjoys happiness in Ningbei Hou Mansion!"

Ye Lingwu frowned in disgust, and said, "Who is your eldest niece? My mother has no younger brother."

The visiting time was limited, so Ye Lingwu took out the engraved jade pendant from her bosom, and said, "You want Mrs. Liu to hand it over to me. Tell me, tell me what you want to say here."

Liu Yuxian didn't answer first, but winked at Liu Yuping. Liu Yuping immediately understood, and said, "Mother Qiu and I will wait outside first, you can talk."

After the two went out, Liu Yuxian said with a smile on his face: "Miss, how have you been in the Ningbei Hou Mansion these few months?"

"Very good." Ye Lingwu said concisely.

"Did the eldest girl and Lord Shen Xiaohou talk to each other?" Liu Yuxian's eyes looked like a ghost in hell looking up at the world, as if he had put all his hopes on the girl opposite.

"I don't have the ability to talk to Lord Shen Xiaohou. He is a powerful official in the court. I'm just a little girl in the old lady's yard. You think too much of me." Ye Lingwu didn't tell the truth in order to avoid trouble. .

Hearing this, Liu Yuxian said very excitedly: "Miss don't need to feel sorry for yourself, you have a jade pendant in your hand, you can't talk now, but you will definitely be able to talk in the future, maybe the whole Hou Mansion can revolve around you!"

Ye Lingwu's eyes deepened, and she said, "It's just that there are two names engraved on the jade pendant. Why should the Hou Mansion hang around me because of a jade pendant?"

"This is not an ordinary jade pendant!" Liu Yuxian pointed to the jade pendant in her hand, "It is a token of love between your mother and Lord Shen!"

Ye Lingwu secretly caressed the jade pendant in her hand, brushed her fingertips lightly along the lines of the word "Song Yun", and thought to herself: "It turned out to be a token of love, but isn't this a thing of the past? Now that it is revealed, there is something wrong with it." What's the point?"

A ferocious smile appeared on Liu Yuxian's disheveled face: "Of course it makes sense, young lady! Do you know why Mrs. Shen suddenly brought you to the capital half a year ago?"

Ye Lingwu looked at him quietly, and she couldn't find a trace of brightness in her almond eyes: "...Don't you miss your dead mother?"

"It's all bullshit excuses for thinking about my dead mother!" Liu Yuxian pointed to himself, "It's because of me! If I hadn't written a letter to Mrs. Shen, if it wasn't for my letter, you would think that Mrs. Shen Can I remember you?"

"A letter?" Ye Lingwu was slightly puzzled.

Liu Yuxian smiled: "After your mother died, I found not only the jade pendant in her dormitory, but also the letter written by Mr. Shen to your mother. In the letter, Mr. Shen comforted your mother who was pregnant for seven months Mother, my eldest niece, you are the illegitimate daughter of Lord Shen!"
