Zhao Wu knew in her heart that after all, she was just an outsider and could only be persuaded. The answer must be solved by their client.
So she nodded and said, "I am indeed a little hungry."
Zhou Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly called her to eat. After eating two bites, she went to worry about other people. She asked Archi first. Zhao Wu shook her head and reminded: "Have you forgotten?"
"Aqi has been eating in the study with the prince these days. He is busy with his homework. It's normal to be a little anxious."
Hearing this Zhou Xiaoyuan stuck out her tongue.
She thought to herself that she was lucky not to ask Xia Yechen where she ate, but looking at Zhao Wu's understanding expression, she felt as if her thoughts had been read through. Sister Wu clearly understood everything, but she didn't do it in front of her. It's just exposing your own face.
When she thought of this, Zhou Xiaoyuan became even more embarrassed. She lowered her head and took a few mouthfuls of rice. It took a long time before she remembered someone again. Looking around, a bad premonition emerged in her heart: "Wait a minute, where is Princess Jialun?"
As soon as these words were said, Zhao Wu was also stunned. Yingmei next to her was coming over with water, and she answered quickly after hearing the words.
"Back to the girl, Her Royal Highness the Princess came before you and the prince woke up. When she heard that you hadn't woken up yet, she went back with her maid."
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan's expression almost cracked - did everyone in the house know it?
But that's not the point. Zhou Xiaoyuan took a deep breath and calmed down.
He asked again: "Going back? Where did she go? Why did she get up so early? She didn't leave the house, right?"
This time it was Zhao Wu who answered. She looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan's wary and uneasy expression, and even felt a little strange. She hesitated for a while.
Then he said: "When we came just now, Her Royal Highness the Princess and her people did leave the mansion. It seemed that she said there was nothing to eat in the mansion, so she went outside specially..."
The house leaked and it rained all night, so Zhou Xiaoyuan knew that she shouldn't have too big dreams for Princess Jialun. She almost pinched herself, took a deep breath, and managed to calm down.
Then he stood up and greeted Yingmei to get ready to find Princess Jialun.
Others actually didn't quite understand it, so Yingmei took the initiative to say it.
"But, girl, Her Royal Highness has many guards with her, so nothing will happen to her, right?"
"It should be," Zhou Xiaoyuan repeated these two words with a cold face. Her expression was not good, and her tone was almost gloomy. "How can the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess be solved with just one sentence?"
Especially in this situation where people are always watching her, if something happens to Princess Jialun, it is impossible to imagine what will happen next.
Zhou Xiaoyuan obviously had an angry expression. Others did not dare to refute. Yingmei also went to arrange escorts. Even Zhao Wu nodded and prepared to go together.
But just when they were about to leave, Nini, who had been sitting at the table obediently and eating, jumped down. She ran a few steps and grabbed the corner of Zhou Xiaoyuan's clothes. Her eyes were worried and crisp and she said: "Mother! I I want to go too!”
Zhou Xiaoyuan felt even more helpless when she heard this. She took the little girl's hand and reminded her, "Mom, you are not going shopping here, you are here to arrest someone."
Nini nodded, looking stubborn.
"I know, it's Aunt Huang who is disobedient. Mother wants to bring Aunt Huang back, but Aunt Huang is not here, and neither is Archie.
My mother-in-law is not here yet, so Nini is not happy to be alone in the house..."
The little girl looked pitiful, but how dare Zhou Xiaoyuan take her out of the mansion, especially when Princess Jialun was also outside.
All of them might be Prince Jing's targets. If one more person comes out, it will bring one more clue to the door. No matter how hard you think about it, it is not something you can do.
So Zhou Xiaoyuan said cruelly: "No."
Nini, who was rejected, flattened her mouth and was about to cry. Zhou Xiaoyuan quickly added: "Mom, will you ask Archie to come over and accompany you later? But you have to promise your mother not to disturb Brother Archie's study." "
Sure enough, having a playmate made the little girl much easier to coax. She nodded vigorously and said obediently: "Well, auntie, please come back early."
This knowing look made Zhou Xiaoyuan and Zhao Wu both laugh and cry. They shook their heads and hurriedly led their guards out of the house to find someone.
On this side, Princess Jialun has already bought a lot of things.
She originally came out to buy delicious food, but the capital was quite prosperous, so while walking around, she was attracted by other things, especially a lantern on a roadside stall.
The workmanship of this lantern is not as good as the ones in the palace, but it is more innovative and the color is beautiful. Princess Jia Lun could not take her eyes away as she turned it around.
She ran over holding the hem of her skirt and asked excitedly: "Boss, how much does this cost?"
But she didn't know if someone was deliberately going against her, but the same sentence came out of another person's mouth at the same time. Princess Jialun suddenly became unhappy and turned to glare at the woman.
"——Hey! What are you doing? I was clearly interested in this lantern first. What price are you asking for?"
another woman
The eyebrows are picturesque, the facial features are like ink and wash, and she looks very gentle. However, a glimmer of light flashes from time to time in her eyes, which destroys the beauty of that beautiful face for no reason.
Princess Jialun frowned, feeling that something was wrong, but before she could react, the woman had already said in a cold voice: "Who do you think you are?"
"You said that what you saw first was what you saw first? What evidence is there? I also said that I have been guarding here since yesterday."
Isn’t this deliberately looking for trouble! Princess Jialun was furious.
Seeing that a quarrel was about to start, the vendor was also uneasy, but the maid next to the woman said provocatively: "It doesn't look like this girl is short of money, so why not, whoever pays the higher price will take it?" ah."
It should be said or not, but it turned out to be the same thing. The maid came up with such a stupid idea, and the master actually nodded.
He glanced at Princess Jialun provocatively.
He said: "That's right, if such a good lantern falls into the hands of a poor person, it will be a failure if he doesn't know how to maintain it. It's better to get it to the one with the highest price!"
Princess Jialun almost laughed when she saw their arrogance. Do they know who they are in front of them? Comparing money with a princess? Go crazy!
When Princess Jia Lun opened her mouth, she wanted to reveal her identity and scare them to death, but as soon as the words reached her throat, she suddenly remembered Zhou Xiaoyuan's advice.
Remembering the pain she suffered when she was kidnapped, Princess Jialun was silent for a moment and looked around with lingering fear.
...I don’t know if anyone here is inquiring about her information. Anyway, it’s better not to expose yourself. No matter how ignorant she is, she still loves her very much.
How can a princess who cherishes her own life not learn a lesson after being kidnapped over and over again?
