Clear clothes and immortals

Chapter 254 Returning to Liu Mansion

"Yiran, where do you live? I'll take you back first, it's getting late now, and I should be leaving soon."

Shuxuan stood there for a while, looked at Liu Yiran who was tottering beside him, and quickly supported him and said.

"Sister, where are you going?"

Liu Yiran grabbed Shuxuan's clothes.

"Of course I'm going back to Liu Mansion, otherwise where else could I go?"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Yiran and said as a matter of course, she didn't understand why he asked such a simple question.

"Sister, wait for me, I will go back with you."

"What are you doing back home?"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Yiran suspiciously and said, "Mother has already gone to the underworld, what is still in Liu's Mansion is just Mother's body, so you don't need to go back."

"Sister, even if Mother has already left, but Mother died for no reason like this, I must go back and seek justice for Mother, so that those who harmed Mother can get the lessons they deserve, ahem..."

The more Liu Yiran spoke, the more angry he became, and in the end he accidentally pulled the wound, and Liu Yiran couldn't help coughing.

"Be careful."

Shuxuan patted Liu Yiran's back lightly, and said helplessly, "I promised my mother that I would not avenge my mother, so you should stay here obediently!"

"Isn't that mother's revenge? Are we just going to watch the murderer who killed my mother take pride in it?"

Liu Yiran stared at Shuxuan, his eyes were full of anger!
"I didn't say no revenge, it's just that you are injured now, just don't participate in this matter, I have everything!"

Shuxuan patted Liu Yiran on the shoulder.

"But…"

"Okay, don't say anything, it's decided like this."

Liu Yiran wanted to say more, but Shuxuan said first, "Let's say more, with you like this now, I still have to take care of you!"

"I don't need you to take care of me. It's just a small injury. I'll be fine after a while! Anyway, I must personally catch the murderer who killed my mother and avenge my mother!"

Liu Yiran was obviously shocked by Shuxuan's attitude, and stood there in a daze for a while before saying unconvinced.

"Small injury? You see that you can hardly even walk now. Is this still a small injury? Yiran, I know you are not fair about your mother's affairs, but even if you want revenge, you have to do what you can! Besides, you know who is going to harm your mother Is it? And those people in the Liu Mansion didn’t send anyone to notify you at all. How do you explain how you know about this when you go back like this? When you suddenly appear like this, they will become suspicious and they will directly attack you. What will you do? Can you escape with your weak body?"

Shuxuan didn't care whether Liu Yiran would be hit or not. Anyway, her purpose was to prevent Liu Yiran from going back, so as soon as Liu Yiran finished speaking, she threw out the series of questions and asked Liu Yiran directly. up.

"I…"

Although Liu Yiran was very unconvinced, but after thinking about Shuxuan's words, he couldn't find a reason to refute.

"So you'd better stay in the barracks obediently! It's safer here, and it's very suitable for you to recuperate!"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Yiran with an expression of "I'm only for your good." Although Liu Yiran felt something was wrong in his heart, he couldn't say anything when he saw Shuxuan's serious face.

"sister……"

"Okay, don't say anything, it's almost dawn now, I have to go back to check the situation first, so I won't send you off, it's okay for you to go back to your place by yourself, right?"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Yiran's crumbling body, and asked with some concern.

"Sister, I can do it!"

Liu Yiran nodded obediently, but just after she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong, "Sister, I didn't say that I would continue to stay in the barracks! I have to go home!"

"What are you going to do when you go home? The current people in Liu's Mansion have no good intentions. You don't even know how you died when you returned home! Don't worry, I will notify you when I find out the murderer."

Shuxuan looked at the dots of light emerging from the sky, and she didn't want to waste any more time here, she had to hurry up and find the person behind it!

As for Liu Yiran, she believed that he could see the current situation clearly and would not follow up so recklessly.

"Then, sister, be careful!"

Liu Yiran knew that Shuxuan would definitely not let him follow him, and in his current situation, even if he wanted to do something, it was a bit difficult, so he could only look at Shuxuan's back and remind him.

"I'll be fine!"

Responding to Liu Yiran was the back view of Shuxuan walking away, and the voice floating from nowhere.

……

"Huh? Missy?"

When Shuxuan returned to the Liu Mansion, the people guarding the door saw her, as if they had seen something terrifying, they ran inside screaming, "Missy is back..."

"How is this going?"

Seeing the servant's strange reaction, Shuxuan held back the doubts in her heart, and walked slowly towards Liu's residence.

"Xuanxuan, why are you back? Didn't you go to Jiangnan with the emperor?"

Shuxuan entered the Liu Mansion, but before she had gone far, she was stopped by Liu Wenhao.

"What? It's strange that I come back, dad? Or is it that dad doesn't want to see me come back?"

Shuxuan looked at Liu Wenhao's anxious appearance, and her doubts became even worse. Didn't you send someone to notify me?Why do I come back now, but you have such an attitude!
"No, no, why doesn't daddy want to see you? It's just that you went to Jiangnan with the emperor this time, and now you came back suddenly by yourself. The emperor will definitely blame you if he finds out! Why don't you hurry to Jiangnan to give him a hand? The emperor apologizes!"

Liu Wenhao's face was flustered when he heard Shuxuan's words, but he quickly calmed down and drove Shuxuan outside, "Housekeeper, hurry up and arrange a carriage to take the eldest lady to Jiangnan, otherwise the emperor will blame us. Can't bear it."

"Yes, sir!"

After hearing Liu Wenhao's words, the butler hurried down to get ready, but when he turned around, Shu Xuan could clearly see that he was flustered, and his steps were much faster than usual, as if something was chasing after him. Same behind him.

Seeing the butler leave, Shuxuan didn't make a sound, and Liu Wenhao felt a little guilty when he saw her cold face, so he didn't know what to say, and the air fell into a strange silence for a while.

The servants around saw that no one was talking to the masters, and all of them lowered their heads, pretending to be very honest, but Shu Xuan could also feel their nervousness and anxiety from them, And Shuxuan also found out that their situation was aimed at her.

Seeing this scene, Shuxuan suddenly had a bold guess in her heart. Perhaps Liu Wenhao hadn't thought of telling her about her mother's death. That's why she was so nervous and wanted to send her away when she saw her back.

These servants were probably ordered by him not to disclose this news to him, so now that he is back, he is worried that he will make trouble for them, which is why he is like this.

It's just that Shuxuan became a little puzzled when she thought of this. If Liu Wenhao really didn't want anyone to notify her, then who was the one who went to Jiangnan to report to her?
It's just that no matter who he is, she remembered his help this time, and she must return it to him in the future.

It's just that she's back now, and the news that someone reported to her should not be hidden. In order to prevent Liu Wenhao from taking revenge on the person who sent her the news, Shu Xuan sent a voice transmission to Xiao Bai who was playing outside, and asked her to go to Jiangnan to find him. That person brought him safely to the capital.

As early as last year, Xiao Bai felt tired of staying in the palace and wanted to go out to play.And Shuxuan was also planning to leave, so she arranged for her to leave the palace early.

When Shuxuan found her, she happened to be near Jiangnan. When she heard Shuxuan's words, she assured Shuxuan that she would bring that person back safely.

Shuxuan also had confidence in Xiaobai's strength, so after Xiaobai took over the matter, Shuxuan just told her a few words, and then she didn't worry about it.

It didn't take much time for Shuxuan to contact Xiaobai. From the perspective of those present, Shuxuan just stared blankly for a while, then turned her gaze to them again.

Whenever Shuxuan cast her eyes on a person, that person either lowered his head nervously, or looked left and right with erratic eyes, not daring to look at her.

Seeing this scene, Shu Xuan was even more convinced of her guess just now.

"My lord, the carriage has been arranged."

At this moment, the housekeeper who was sent by Liu Wenhao to prepare the carriage had returned, and he said respectfully to Liu Wenhao.

"Well! I see!"

Liu Wenhao nodded to the butler, and then said to Shuxuan, "Xuanxuan, the carriage is ready for you, you can set off for Jiangnan now!"

"Father, I just came back! Why are you driving me away in such a hurry?"

Shuxuan stared straight at Liu Wenhao until she felt uncomfortable looking at him, then she spoke slowly.

"Xuanxuan, it's not that dad wants to drive you away, it's just that it's wrong for you to come back here privately. The emperor will definitely be angry if he finds out. You can't just rely on the emperor to favor you now, and you do things so recklessly! You After going back for the first time, confess your mistake to the emperor, I believe the emperor will forgive you! It's just that you can't do things so capriciously in the future!"

Liu Wenhao looked at Shuxuan with concern on his face. If someone who didn't know saw it, he would really think how much he cared about Shuxuan!It was just the eagerness in his eyes that betrayed him.

"Oh? Did Daddy really think so? I didn't expect Daddy to really care about me!"

Shuxuan saw Liu Wenhao's reaction, and asked with a slight smile.

"Of course, you said my daughter, who else can I care about if I don't care about you?"

Liu Wenhao also felt that Shuxuan's reaction at this time was a bit wrong, he just wanted to send Shuxuan away quickly, lest Shuxuan know the news that her mother had died.

It's just that Liu Wenhao never imagined that Shuxuan actually knew about it a long time ago, and she came back now to take revenge.

"Then I really have to thank Dad for his concern!"

Shuxuan looked around as she said, then walked towards the mansion, "It's just that I'm already back anyway, so I'm not in a hurry to leave. I'd better go and see my mother first."

"Miss, you can't go in!"

Seeing that Shuxuan was about to go inside, a servant who couldn't hold his breath shouted in panic.

"Why can't I go in? Could it be that Liu's Mansion is still some terrible place, and I'm not qualified to go?"

Shu Xuan turned her head to look at the person who spoke and asked.

"This...I..."

When Shuxuan looked at that person, he felt a chill behind his back, as if he was being stared at by something, which made him shiver intermittently, and he couldn't even speak fluently.

"Father, don't tell me I'm not even qualified to enter Liu's mansion if I go out now?"

Shuxuan ignored the frightened servant, turned to look at Liu Wenhao and asked.

"Xuanxuan, it's not like that, it's just... this..."

Seeing Shuxuan's eyes, Liu Wenhao also felt a little guilty, and couldn't find any suitable excuse to stop Shuxuan.

"Father, since I came back this time, my father has tried to drive me away more than once. Could it be that what happened in this mansion can't let me know?"

Of course Shuxuan knew that Liu Wenhao wanted to hide the news of Mrs. Liu's death, and she just wanted to scare him by saying this.

After all, no matter how bastard Liu Wenhao is, he is still her biological father in this life, and Shu Xuan is not sure whether Liu Wenhao's mother's death was involved in it.

So she didn't want to do anything to him until the truth of the matter was found out.

It's just that no matter whether this matter was written by him or not, he must have known something after the incident happened. In order to cover the murderer, he even wanted to quietly bury Mrs. Liu without informing her and Liu Yiran.Shu Xuan couldn't accept this.

Moreover, Shuxuan found out only after returning to Liu's Mansion today that her father had only set up it in the mourning hall in order not to leak the news, and the other places in the mansion didn't even bother to make appearances.

And according to the customs of this generation, when the mistress of a rich family dies, the concubines in the mansion don't say they wear linen and mourning, at least they should dress plainly!

But among the people standing here, there are quite a few who are wearing brightly colored clothes, and they have no intention of keeping a filial piety for Mrs. Liu. Shu Xuan would not believe that Liu Wenhao did not acquiesce in this.

Thinking of this, Shuxuan also felt that she was just scaring Liu Wenhao, which was a bit too simple.

"How could this happen? Xuanxuan, you think too much. As a father, I only care about you. Now that you are in the palace, I, as a father, can't help you. The only thing you can rely on in the palace is Only the emperor is left, if you are so awkward with the emperor now, if the emperor is really angry with you, then you will have a hard time in the future!"

Liu Wenhao asked someone to stop Shuxuan and tried to persuade him that the gesture of an old father who cared about his daughter was very good.

It's a pity that Liu Wenhao still doesn't know why Shuxuan is here, so he can only use his imagination there!
"Hehe...Father, your acting is so good, I almost believe that you did it because you care about me!"

Shuxuan listened to Liu Wenhao's words, and almost couldn't help applauding him. How did she not know that he was so good at acting?

"Xuanxuan, what are you talking about? I am your father, of course I really care about you!"

Liu Wenhao's heart sank when he heard Shuxuan's words, and his face couldn't help turning ugly, but he still put on a serious look and looked at Shuxuan with a sad face.

"Master Liu, don't pretend, I already knew."

Seeing Liu Wenhao's sudden change of expression, Shuxuan didn't want to waste time with him anymore, and said straight to the point.
