Chapter 4

Ru Mu is the general manager of the maids of the Six Palaces, the official is from the third rank, and the salary is from the fourth rank. When the maids in the palace see her, they still need to call her aunt.

Zhao Jieyu answered carefully with Wang Meiren, and there were court ladies and eunuchs as witnesses, so there was nothing suspicious.

"This girl looks strange, and this old servant doesn't look like a new palace daughter." Aunt Rumu walked straight towards Su Yan with sharp eyes. Hong actually started to cry, and went straight into her arms, yelling, "Sister, take me home quickly, I don't dare to stay in the palace anymore."

While covering half of her swollen face, sobbing, very pitiful, Zhao Jieyu said to Ru Mu, "This is my cousin from my aunt's family. A few days ago, she came to visit me in the palace. Tao, she was punished by Concubine Yi, and she is still injured, and has been raised in the bedroom since evening, and has never left half a step."

Seeing that Su Yan's youngest daughter was afraid of things, Ru Mu said politely, "The old slave has gone to another palace, young masters, let's arrange it earlier."

Wang Mei smiled secretly, this Su Yan is really an embroidered pillow, she has a good appearance, but she is timid and useless.

Seeing that Ru Mu and his party had left, she dropped the matter for the time being, and she brought her maid back to the palace.

Before going to bed, Su Yan pulled Zhao Jieyu to talk a few times, then changed the subject and asked, "Then Concubine Rong has gone, has her son been implicated?"

Zhao Jieyu then replied, "Prince Jingwen is of royal blood after all, so he is safe. He will be raised in the Palace of Compassion and Ning."

Su Yan was secretly relieved, no matter what, Jing Wen was her son born in October of her pregnancy, he is safe and sound now, it is finally comforting.

The love between mother and child whose blood is thicker than water, even after a lifetime, taught her that she could not part with it, but now the time is not yet ripe, so she must not act rashly.

The fire in Yanhua Palace started strangely, the guards, Xiao Yunzi and Xiao Wenzi, said that the palace was not clean, and there were strange things all night.

First, a woman Bai Ying'er came in and out, and there was an inexplicable sound of the piano, and it caught fire after a while, thinking that the ghost of Concubine Rong was lingering and refused to leave.

Huang Pei'an has been in the palace for a long time, and he has never seen any grievances. Naturally, he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, so he ordered the two young eunuchs to be dragged down, and each was given thirty slaps as punishment.

About the scandal, Su Yan fell asleep amidst the noise, very peacefully, without any dreams.

In the early morning of the next day, Hong Ling took care of her to wash and wash up carefully. Facing the bronze mirror, she saw that although Su Yan was only wearing an ordinary fringed floral dress and did not wear any makeup, she was able to wear the goose yellow color very pretty. Then he smiled and replied, "Originally, I only thought that beautiful clothes complement people. Only after seeing Miss Biao did I know that people can also wear shirts."

Zhao Jieyu made proper arrangements, and when the time passed, she was accompanied by Xiao Lizi and several young maids, and went to the Xuanwu Gate on the south side of the imperial city.

On the day of leaving the palace, the sky that had been cloudy for several days suddenly cleared up, and the spring breeze was warm.

Overnight, all the hibiscus flowers in the palace were in full bloom, and the faint fragrance lingered like fog.The morning light glows with soft gold, and it falls on the surface of Lake Piwa, reflecting the pool of red hibiscus flowers that are as bright as fire, which is pleasant and intoxicating.

Su Manor's carriage stopped outside the Xuanwu Gate early in the morning, with a green cloth curtain and two horses driving the carriage, one could vaguely see a servant leading a horse from afar.

After the two talked, Zhao Jieyu brushed her veil carefully, with a look of shame and distress, Su Yan bid farewell and left.

Just as she walked a few steps away, Zhao Jieyu suddenly said from behind, "Sister, the people in this palace are so cold, it's not a place to stay for a long time, once you go this time, I hope you won't come back again."

Su Yan looked back, speechless for a moment, just looked at her, then bent her eyebrows and smiled sweetly at her.

Looking from the Xuanwu Gate, Yuye Imperial City is majestic and majestic. It is surrounded by mountains in the north and Weihe River in the south. It has the air of an emperor.

The smile was still on her lips, she narrowed her eyes, and drifted away without looking back.

Sister, Yan'er will not be blessed to accept your kindness in this life, I'm afraid that in the future, I will definitely bear your painstaking efforts.

Before reaching the chariots and horses, a maidservant in blue hurriedly greeted her, put on the cloak for her, took care of her, and said, "All the empresses in the palace are cruel and merciless, Miss Jiao Suffering such grievances, Madam wiped away her tears in a hurry last night..."

Su Yan saw that the girl spoke straightforwardly, with a round face and curved eyebrows, she looked very pleasing to the eye, but she still interrupted her, saying, "Let's go back to the house and talk about right and wrong, and help me get into the car first."

The little maid was taken aback, then hurriedly moved the footstool, and waited for Su Yan to get into the car before ordering the driver to set off.

Su Yan lifted the curtain and said to her, "You can come in and sit down too."

She was even more puzzled, why is this young lady so different today, in the past she only liked to sit alone and never let anyone accompany her.

Driving straight along the way, Su Yan took off the veil, the little servant girl saw the wound, her brows were furrowed immediately, and she said distressedly, "Miss is at fault, so there is no need for Concubine Yi to be so ruthless!"

Su Yan only smiled coquettishly, and asked, "What are your real names, tell me."

The little maid was puzzled, so she had to tell the truth, "Since I entered the mansion at the age of five, the master gave me the name Lan Ruo, and I don't remember my family's name."

Su Yan casually asked a few more gossips, and roughly understood the context of the Su residence.

Lan Ruoxu had been by Su Yan's side for a long time, she was very caring, Su Yan closed her eyes, leaned on the soft back, and suddenly thought of Abi.

The car came to a stop slowly, Lan Ruo called softly a few times, Su Yan slowly opened her eyes, and she helped her out of the car.

The two vermilion lacquered gates of the Su Mansion are open side by side, and there are two stone lions standing at the gate. Although they are not very grand, they are still from a family of officials and officials, and they still have the grandeur they should have.

Su Yan rolled up her skirt and looked up at the gold-lettered plaque of the Su Mansion, Fang Jue felt as if she had just woken up from a dream, and she had an epiphany in panic.

Once you step into this door, you will make a clean break with the past, and live a new life as Su Yan.

Looking around, Su Yan and Lan Ruo looked at each other, and they both felt something strange.

"When the slaves and maids go out in the morning, the master and wife have prepared things early, why is no one coming to pick up the young miss?" Lan Ruo spoke quickly, and looked around, even the housekeeper Li was not there.

"Let's take a quick look." Su Yan was still decisive, she deliberately slowed down, and Lan Ruo led her into the house.

Su Mansion is a neat white-walled Wuwa building, with flower gardens and vegetable gardens dotted at intervals, which does not have a simple charm.

Before arriving at the main hall, an old servant in gray clothes hurriedly greeted him, "Something happened at home, ma'am, please hurry over!"

Su Yan nodded, and quickened her pace. When she reached the main hall, she saw a room full of people.

Seeing her coming, the purple-fur lady in the upper seat got down on the couch with a sad face, looked carefully, shed tears involuntarily, hugged Su Yan in her arms, and said, "You hurt like this, godmother's heart is hurting." It's broken!"

Su Yan took her hand and said, "Mother, don't be sad, I'm not in good shape, flesh and blood injuries are the least serious, and it will heal within a few days."

"My Yan'er has really grown up. After this incident, she will not be reckless in the future!" Mrs. Zhao burst into tears.

"What happened at home, why don't you see Daddy?" Seeing how loving she is to her family, Su Yan couldn't help but feel a little guilty, but the whole family didn't know that the young lady had already returned to Jiuquan, and she was just a substitute for Li Zong.

When Fang talked about this, Mrs. Zhao became more worried and said, "It happened suddenly. An hour ago, the imperial court suddenly sent a supervisory censor to our house. After questioning for a while, they took your father away and said Why are you asking questions one step closer, but why do you need such a big commotion? Your father has always been an honest man, so he would never commit any crimes!"

"Mother, don't worry, let's think about it carefully, who has provoked someone recently, what kind of case did Dad take in the government office?" Everyone in the room was very anxious, only Su Yan was the most calm.

Mrs. Cui Ao from the side also said something at this moment, and said, "It's still Missy who is thoughtful, Madam misses Master, and now we still have to find a way."

Su Yan was unable to distinguish her identity, but she saw a girl in pink standing beside the Cui jacket lady. She was charming, with round watery eyes, looking at her, and suddenly said in a crisp voice, "Elder sister , Dad left a message before he left and taught me to listen."

Presumably this is the second aunt Zhou and her younger sister Su Zhi, Zhou hurriedly said, "Zhier, tell me quickly, what did the master say?"

"Daddy said, go to the Lin family."

Lin?Just as Su Yan was thinking about it, the Zhao family said happily, "The Lin family is Supervisor Lin! We, the Su Lin family, are family friends, so I think they will be able to help!"

"Now we have a way." With a smile, Mrs. Zhou pulled Su Zhi over again, and Mrs. Zhao said, "This time Zhi'er has made a contribution, and when the master comes back, I will ask for your reward."

Su Zhi smiled sweetly, snuggled up to Su Yan's side, raised her head and asked, "Elder Sister, is Concubine Yi very powerful? I heard from them that women in the palace are not easy to mess with."

Mrs. Zhou scolded, "Your sister just came back, don't make trouble."

Su Yan only thought that she was a little girl, so she said playfully, "I don't know what kind of lady, but the board in the palace is really powerful, if you don't behave in the future, I will take you in and be punished!"

That Su Zhi stuck out her tongue, and stood back obediently.

Mrs. Zhao arranged Luo Beili and was about to visit Lin's mansion immediately. Su Yan didn't care about her injuries, so she packed up and went with Mrs. Zhao.

Before leaving, Su Zhi privately said to Su Yan, "Brother Wen Yuan came here yesterday."

Su Yan had no choice but to pretend to know and agreed, but Su Zhi pulled her and said, "He is very sorry and said he would come back today."

"Let's talk about it when I come back from the Lin Mansion." Su Yan didn't care, but Su Zhi felt even more strange. When the eldest sister came back from the palace, her words and deeds seemed to have changed, and she was even her own best essay. Brother Yuan didn't care about it anymore.

Lin's residence is not far from Su's residence, and it takes less than half an hour to arrive.

Seeing that it was Mrs. Su and Miss Su who had arrived, the manager of the Lin family was very polite and hurriedly introduced them.

Mrs. Lin and her servants greeted her with a smile, and the group entered the room exchanging greetings.

Mrs. Zhao explained the whole story in detail, Mrs. Lin also looked anxious, and kept comforting her, saying that Master Lin would be back in a while, so she was relieved, and no matter what, she had to find a way to keep Master Su out.

Mrs. Zhao was very grateful, so Su Yan stepped forward to salute.

Mrs. Lin noticed Su Yan who was wearing a veil, and couldn't help frowning, "What's wrong with Yan'er?"

"It's a long story, and I blame her for being naughty, but luckily nothing serious happened." Mrs. Zhao didn't want to go into details, so she asked, "Why don't you see Qingqing?"

Mrs. Lin said with a smile, "She's in the bedroom right now, let's teach Yan'er to go there. The two haven't seen each other for half a year, so they must have a lot to talk about."

Miss Lin's boudoir is behind a curved wooden bridge, very elegant, Su Yan knocked on the door, and only heard the faint voice say, "Who is outside?"

Su Yan pushed open the door, and the woman in front of the piano platform raised her head and said in surprise, "Yan'er, it was you who came!"

When seeing Lin Qingqing clearly, Su Yan was stunned.

The girl was sitting leaning on the qin, wearing a light yellow lock flower gown, a pair of gentle almond eyes, two delicate eyebrows, especially the soft charm, she was born seventy percent like herself in the previous life!
The surprise came too suddenly, Su Yan stared at the familiar face, speechless for a moment.
