He said apologetic words, but that attitude, that look, that tone, there was absolutely no intention of apologizing at all.

How could Butler Su dare to be serious? He could only nod and bow, "Yes, yes, it is her blessing to be summoned by His Highness. Miss Zhou, just go with Eunuch Ruan! Just think of it as a way to see the world. , you must know that some people can’t reach the edge of the palace even if they spend their whole life jumping around!”

"What did you say? Go to the palace?"

"That's right, let's go with Eunuch Ruan!" At this point, if he still couldn't understand Shen Qing's intention, he would really die.

Su Han's eyes widened suddenly. She understood. She wanted to open her mouth and shout, to tell those people: The person you are looking for is not Zhou, but Shen, and he is not that person at all.

It's a pity that she did speak, but she couldn't make a sound.

Su Han slowly turned her head to look at the man standing next to her. As soon as he sat down at the table, he started eating as hard as he could, as if all the beauties on the table were not as attractive as a plate of roasted lamb legs.

He was picking his teeth leisurely with a toothpick when he saw her looking over and gave her a friendly smile in return.

The Zhou family's mother and daughter were invited into the carriage. Just in case, Butler Su took Hongluan and others to follow them, leaving only a boy to guide them. Before leaving, Butler Su looked at Shen Qing meaningfully. , the latter understood and nodded towards him.

Butler Su sighed, it really made him feel relieved to get her approval.

The carriages in the palace are definitely not comparable to those among the people.

Just say that the luminous pearl hanging on the wall is as big as a quail egg. It can be said to be priceless. If ordinary people have such a pearl, they can live a comfortable and happy life.

As soon as Zhou's mother got into the carriage, she was a little nervous at first, but seeing the decorations in the carriage, she immediately put all the insecurities behind her.

"My God, my daughter, this blanket is so soft. Is the pillow made of silk? It's so slippery! Look at the wall lamp hanging above it, it's brighter than the bronze mirror!"

Before she finished touching the rare things, she discovered something incredible again.

"Ouch! This small table also has a hidden compartment, wow! Such cakes, I just didn't have enough to eat before, come on, come on, don't eat it for nothing, um... it's so delicious, so sweet, it melts in your mouth, how could this happen? With such delicious cakes, this box costs a lot of money, right?"

Mother Zhou held one in each hand, not forgetting to give it to her daughter.

Zhou Maimiao originally wanted to be reserved and show off, but after a while, she couldn't hold it anymore and started to devour it like her mother.

He also plundered all the good things from the carriage and hid them on himself.

She also wanted to take the night pearl, but she was afraid that it would be too valuable and someone would cause trouble for her later, so she had no choice but to give it up.

Someone from the palace went back and reported what happened to the carriage to Eunuch Ruan.

After hearing this, he just smiled contemptuously.

Sure enough, as he expected, with a little food, drink, and a few worthless gadgets, they were able to reveal their true identity. For such a woman, even if she had no choice but to do so, the Queen Mother would not agree, right?

On the other side, after seeing Eunuch Ruan and others' carriage moving away, Shen Qing calmly shouted, "Let's go!"

The servant left by Butler Su quickly ordered someone to bring the carriage over, and then helped Shen Qing get into the carriage.

Su Han was one step behind. She stared at Shen Qing's back and said viciously: "You are really there, you are so cruel!"

Shen Qing smiled, not angry at all, "If you don't do it for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you."

After saying these eight words, she no longer cared about Su Han's expression, put down the curtain and sat in.

The young man looked at Su Han who had clenched his fists, and kindly advised: "Miss Third, you should get on the carriage obediently! When you meet the eldest son later, as long as you admit your mistake, he will not embarrass you."

Su Han glared at him, "Huh! You don't need to teach me!"

The boy sighed helplessly, mistaking his good intentions for a donkey's liver and lungs. The journey after that was uneventful. An hour later, the carriage made twists and turns and stopped in front of a gloomy house.

Shen Qing stood outside the house, looking at the dark gatehouse, the moss-covered walls, and the broken steps. The moss had grown so high in some places.

The temperature here, even at night, is around ten degrees, so it's not surprising that moss grows.

But what surprised her was that a place that was clearly inhabited by people turned out to look like an abandoned house. To be more precise, it looked like an unpopular place.

"Is your eldest son living in a place like this?"

"Girl, look at the plaque above. It's not wrong. But no one is looking outside the door. Go take a look." The boy ran up and knocked on the door. After a while, he heard a hoarse old man. the sound of.

"Ahem! It's coming, it's coming, the knocking is so urgent at night, it's like urging someone to die."

The paint-peeled mahogany door was pulled open from the inside.

Because it was completely dark now, and there were no lights hanging on the corridor, the old man who opened the door held a lantern with a faint light in his hand. It shone on the old man's face, revealing a dark and strange feeling, which scared him to death.

"Oh my God!"

"Mom!"

Both parties were startled, and the old man was so frightened that he threw away the lantern in his hand.

"You...you..."

"Hey! Don't be afraid! We are here from the Su family's old house in Jingyang Mansion. The old lady sent us to send someone here. It was the eldest son who asked for it. Where is our eldest son? Is he asleep?"

"You're from my hometown? Where's Butler Su?"

Shen Qing had been listening in the back and felt that the old man's voice was somewhat familiar, so he stepped forward and pushed the boy away. Ding Qing took a look and said, "Housekeeper?"

I haven't seen him for more than half a year, but this old man has become so old, as if he is terminally ill or about to die.

Anyway, he looked completely lifeless, which was surprisingly similar to the feeling of this house.

Because the house manager knew that she was coming, he only froze for a moment and then started to get excited, "Shen, Miss Shen? It's really you. I thought you wouldn't arrive until tomorrow. Come on, come on in..." "

The old man was so excited that he cried with joy. While wiping his tears, he tried hard to open the door.

The door had not been opened for a long time and was very heavy. It was only opened with the help of two boys.

The door opened, and Shen Qing could see the scene in the main courtyard through the mottled moonlight.

The landscape trees planted in the yard of more than 200 square meters have not been pruned for an unknown period of time. They have strange shapes and look scary at night.

Because it is winter now, some seasonal flowers and plants have dried up and died, and they have not been cleaned up in time.

So in this courtyard, not to mention overgrown with weeds, it’s pretty much it.

What's more important is that there is no living person at all, it really looks like an abandoned house.

"You... just live here?" She asked her own question, "Is your young master..." She wanted to ask if Su Jing had died, otherwise how could you live in such a place, like a ghost house? of.
