Chapter 331 Scream
Su Jiu looked at her.

This young girl is very proud of her background and tries to be admired for it.

Such a person is easy to deal with, just praise her.

She smiled, but before she could speak, a shrill singing voice suddenly came from the end of the garden:

"Prince arrives—"

The girls looked over and saw a man in a bright yellow four-claw python robe coming with his hands behind his back.

Prince Yuanxu, in his early twenties, is tall and handsome, with a pair of peach blossom eyes.

Su Jiu lowered his eyes, and saluted in the same manner as other girls.

Lu Jiaoyi ran up to Yuan Xu, "Brother Prince! Jiangnan is so boring, I want to go back to Chang'an immediately!"

Yuan Xu clasped his hands behind his back, elegant and dignified, "I just came here and made a fuss to go back, don't you think it's too tiring?"

His voice is very gentle, which makes people feel a sense of intimacy.

And after he finished speaking, he pointed to someone casually, "Is there anything interesting in Jinling City, tell Miss Lu about it."

Coincidentally, the person pointed at was Xiao Huiran.

Xiao Huiran is a person who only knows how to behave in the nest, and she is quite obsequious in front of outsiders. She stood up nervously, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, Miss Lu, a troupe came to Jinling City recently, and the puppet show performed was very interesting."

"A puppet show? It's interesting." Yuan Xu pinched Lu Jiaoyi's nose, "Invite the puppet show troupe into Xu's mansion to relieve you and Yueji, okay?"

"No!"

Before Lu Jiaoyi had time to respond, a tall middle-aged eunuch suddenly stopped her, "The crown prince is rich and precious, and the origin of the theater troupe is unknown, how can-"

Yuan Xu's breath was a bit cold, "Wu Song, are you the prince, or I am the prince?"

The middle-aged eunuch shut up.

Recruited by the crown prince himself, the puppet show troupe dared not neglect, and entered the opera viewing pavilion of Xu's mansion after an hour.

The girls couldn't wait to follow Lu Jiaoyi to the puppet show. Su Jiu and Xu Nuanyue accompanied her to find the turtle shell because Zhou Baojin's divination was missing, and stayed in the garden for the time being.

After searching for a while, Xu Nuanyue sat down on the stone bench in frustration, "Bao Jin, are you sure the turtle shell was thrown in the garden?"

"Of course, when I entered the mansion, I remembered that it was still in my purse, and it must have been thrown around here..."

While the two were talking, Su Jiu rummaged along the flower path where he came, and was about to push aside a cluster of chrysanthemums by the roadside when his fingertips stopped suddenly.

She turned back.

In the bushes not far away, a figure flashed away.

With such good skills, she doesn't look like a maidservant of the Xu Mansion.

The girl glanced around from the corner of her eye, the garden was empty, it seemed that there were only three of them left.

Feeling uneasy, she immediately returned to the two of them, "The tortoise shell is gone, just buy another pair, let's go to Guanxi Pavilion first?"

Zhou Baojin pouted, and reluctantly followed them to the opera pavilion.

The puppet show has already begun, and the wonderful performances and lifelike puppets have aroused the excitement of the audience.

Su Jiu sat down among the crowd. For some reason, the uneasiness just now gradually amplified in his heart, and he always felt that something was about to happen.

She looked around, and it seemed that His Royal Highness had probably gone to discuss matters with the officials, and the only person sitting in the arena was Lu Jiaoyi, who was full of stars.

The flowers are blooming and everything is fine.

She picked up the teacup, thinking to herself that maybe she was supercilious.

After taking a sip of tea, Su Jiu suddenly looked up again.

What about Xiao Huiran?

So she likes to watch puppet shows, why isn't she here?
As soon as this idea came up, a scream suddenly came from the pavilion behind!
