Upon hearing this, the secret guards became more and more confused, and they didn't know where Zhou Xiaoyuan's confidence came from.

But that’s what people did.

They had no choice but to think of what Grand Scholar Su had said and did not ask them to conceal their identities. After a moment of hesitation, the group of people also confessed who was behind the scenes.

This time it was Zhou Xiaoyuan who was surprised. She thought about it carefully and even thought about it on the way back, but to no avail.

I still can't figure out why this college student from Su Mansion is related to me? And specially sent someone to monitor her?

In fact, Zhou Xiaoyuan also turned around soon, thinking that it should be Xia Yechen, otherwise it would not have been so timely, but the question is... is this person the opposite or a united front with Xia Yechen?

The one with a united front is the best, and since he hasn't killed anyone for so long, it should be the latter, but Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't get enough of it just thinking about it.

And Xia Yechen may not have been heard from for a long time.

After several considerations, Zhou Xiaoyuan suddenly made a decision. She took the things in her hands back to the house. Before Zhao Wu could say a few words to her, Zhou Xiaoyuan opened her mouth and blocked her mouth.

"I have to go out again. I'm not sure when I'll be back. You and Nini Aqi should eat first."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Zhao Wu was left alone to blink her eyes, and a confused Nini ran over next to her.

The little girl also blinked and asked in confusion: "Auntie, where are you going? Haven't you eaten yet?"

Seeing this question, Mrs. Zhao Wu patted her head.

He also said somewhat helplessly: "Maybe something happened. Let's eat first and leave some food for her later."

After hearing this, Nini became more obedient.

Nodding, neither of them would have thought that Zhou Xiaoyuan would be so courageous, and would go directly to the residence of the Grand Scholar Su to "initiate an investigation."

Now let’s get back to Bachelor Su’s side.

He didn't hide it, since Zhou Xiaoyuan came to the door, he received her directly.

When they met the person, without waiting for Zhou Xiaoyuan to say anything first, Academician Su nodded first and gave a few words of slight appreciation, which meant that he was quite satisfied with her vigilance and bravery, but the matter was obviously not just that simple.

Zhou Xiaoyuan blinked, feeling that this was a sugar-coated bomb, so she kept a straight face and said thank you stiffly.

University Scholar Su noticed her vigilance, and immediately responded to it with ease, and said, "It seems that the girl has ulterior motives."

"That wouldn't be the case."

Zhou Xiaoyuan replied, thinking carefully before asking straight to the point: "The daughter of the people just wants to ask, the daughter of the people has no enmity with Mr. Su in the past and now, and I am just a commoner. Why does Mr. Su..."

She stopped knowingly, and even though she had not finished speaking, University Scholar Su also squinted his eyes, naturally guessing the deep meaning of Zhou Xiaoyuan's words.

He shook his head and sighed: "The girl is very smart."

This didn't sound like a nice thing to say. Zhou Xiaoyuan nodded slightly and did not respond.

Seeing her talking like this, Academician Su was not angry. He spoke frankly about his relationship with Prince Rong Xia Yechen, and pointed out: "Prince Rong is the son of Concubine Shu. I am Concubine Shu's brother, so naturally I am his uncle."

"He used to live among the people for many years before he was found. I have never heard him talk about his past these days. We only found out two days ago that he was given a home by his former family.

Marriage. Concubine Shu was worried that he would owe you something, so I sent someone to protect you. "

What Grand Bachelor Su said was very skillful, and he calmly replaced surveillance with protection. Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't tell what he said, but after thinking about what the secret guards had done for a while, she could only nod.

After all, they didn't hurt anyone and had been living in the dark. If this were to be said, Zhou Xiaoyuan really had no reason to refute.

But what surprised her was that Xia Yechen actually went to talk to his elders about these things.

At the time, she thought this person was just talking.

Otherwise, why would there be no follow-up? Fortunately, she has been on tenterhooks these days.

Who knows, she is not the only one who is worried. I am afraid that Concubine Shu has not let go of her thoughts much. After all, she is just a commoner's daughter. If she wants to be worthy of a noble prince, it seems like she is dreaming.

With such a plan, Zhou Xiaoyuan calmed down, nodded, and did not comment on what Grand Bachelor Su said.

But at the same time, he calmly asked: "What do you want me to do?"

Seeing how cooperative she was, University Scholar Su finally showed a sincere smile on his face. He nodded slightly and said gently: "Girl, don't be too nervous."

"Since the girl has come to Su Mansion, that's it. Let's take a rest in Su Mansion these days, and don't worry about the rest."

Zhou Xiaoyuan was not sure what else the "rest" in Grand Scholar Su's mouth included.

But at the same time, she also knew that since this person said this, it must be with Xia Yechen's acquiescence. In such a situation, she could not refuse or refuse, otherwise it would be a futile effort.

Just angry at others.

Thinking of this, the feeling of frustration came up again. Zhou Xiaoyuan lowered her eyes slightly, hiding the dissatisfaction in her eyes, but she agreed on her lips.

Seeing this, University Scholar Su no longer paid attention to her.

He then said something to his men, but his voice was too soft and Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't hear it clearly. All she knew was that after he finished speaking, he nodded towards her and signaled her to wait here, while he left first.

Zhou Xiaoyuan looked strange when she saw this, but she still waited patiently. After waiting, a woman was welcomed.

She was stunned for a moment, and the woman was also a little surprised when she saw her appearance.

His attitude was unexpectedly kind. After asking her name, he nodded and said softly: "Then you can stay in the mansion. Come, take this girl to live in the new wing. Treat her well, don't neglect her. "

The man's voice was calm, but he didn't look like a bad person. Zhou Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief, his attitude softened a lot, and he nodded and thanked him.

Soon a maid came to guide the way, and Zhou Xiaoyuan took the opportunity to ask a few more questions.

This woman turned out to be the wife of Master Su.

The maidservant was obviously very curious about her, so she took the initiative and said, "We adults have never attracted any girls outside. Madam was a little surprised when she heard that we were going to place you as a girl."

"Maybe there was a misunderstanding." Zhou Xiaoyuan answered very lightly, but when she thought of something, she asked again.

"Didn't Grand Scholar Su explain anything? Or did he say something else?"

"Of course he said so, and he also said he was going to pick up a few children somewhere..."

The maid was outspoken and didn't realize what she said was so important until she spat out the words.

After that, she was stunned for a moment, with an awkward smile on her face, "Girl, just pretend you didn't hear..."
