Chapter 180 I have many words to test
At lunch time, Su Nuan appeared at the gate of Lanyue Pavilion on time.
I don’t know if they were waiting for her, Mu Yunting and Dong Jingshu were both in the yard.
The two men sat at the stone table, drinking tea, without saying a word.
"Your Highness, I have brought you food."
Su Nuan gestured to Mu Yunting while holding the food box.
The two people at the stone table looked at Su Nuan at the same time. Mu Yunting walked towards Su Nuan happily, but Dong Jingshu muttered behind her: "How dare you send such a shabby meal to His Highness."
"Your Highness, have you finished your morning meal?"
"You made it yourself, how could there be leftovers?"
The voice was not as cold as before. Su Nuan was a little uncomfortable with it, but she came to deliver the meal with a purpose, so she didn't think too much about it.
He pinched his throat and continued, "Your Highness, please finish the lunch as well. I put more thought into this meal!"
"Let me see what I've done."
When he opened the food box, a burst of fragrance hit him in the face, and Mu Yunting was very satisfied with the taste.
The two wanted to say something more, but the guards were standing nearby, so they had to give up.
Only after agreeing to continue delivering meals in the evening did Su Nuan prepare to leave.
But before leaving, she suddenly thought of the gossip she heard in the UBS building and wanted to tell Mu Yunting to be careful of Dong Jingshu, but she hesitated for a long time and finally said nothing.
She really didn't know how to start.
Asking a man to guard against a woman raping him sounds unreliable.
After returning to Duiyueju and enjoying the delicious food prepared by Madam Wang, Su Nuan did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried out of the house.
Falcon was still driving the carriage. Su Nuan wanted to change the driver today.
Before getting on the carriage, she asked Falcon, "Has the thief who climbed over the wall in the South City courtyard yesterday been caught?"
"No, the thief ran fast. There were so many people around the courtyard that he got away."
Su Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone became lighter. "That man must be a petty thief nearby. He must be familiar with the terrain, so he ran away. He's just a petty thief, so it's no big deal."
"Yes, I have already withdrawn the personnel who were searching for the thief.
There is also news about other matters that the Queen asked her subordinates to investigate.
Concubine Dong never entered the palace after entering the mansion, but the wife of Marquis Zhongyuan did go to the palace to meet the empress dowager.
From yesterday morning until Concubine Dong entered Lanyue Pavilion, she had not seen any outsiders. The only people she had contact with were the maids in the mansion. "
It doesn't sound like anything to worry about. If the Queen Mother was behind the prince's house arrest, it's possible that a concubine was accompanying him. But how did she know for sure that the concubine was Dong Jingshu?
Unless the two of them had communicated with each other, Su Nuan immediately thought of the spy that the empress dowager had planted in the mansion, and then remembered that when Mu Yunting was investigating that person, Lu Zhu had stayed in his study for an hour.
If Lu Zhu was the spy planted by the Queen Mother next to the Crown Prince, then everything would make sense.
Thinking that she would soon meet Ying Shu, Su Nuan felt inexplicably nervous, and she forgot about Lu Zhu and Dong Jingshu.
In recent visits to Zhusheng Street, Su Nuan was accustomed to going directly into Liangyi Zhai, and Falcon would park the carriage at the door of Liangyi Zhai.
As soon as Su Nuan entered Zhusheng Street today, she stopped the carriage. She used the excuse of inspecting the shops and asked Falcon to stop the carriage at the entrance of the street.
It is far enough away from Liangyi Zhai so that Ying Shu will not be easily discovered.
After pretending to visit two shops, Su Nuan's attitude became serious. She opened several shops on this street in order to train new talents. She didn't expect that the shops would be run well in such a short time.
A tea shop also made two big deals and definitely did not lose money in the first month.
Such a result was completely beyond Su Nuan's expectations. She patiently visited all the shops one by one and was in a good mood.
At this rate of growth, she will have a group of management talents of her own in less than half a year.
By then she will be able to show her talents in the imperial city.
When she arrived at Liangyi Zhai, half an hour had passed since she got off the carriage.
Fusheng welcomed her into the house as usual, and Song Qi made tea and brought it to her.
There is only one teacup.
Su Nuan took a sip of tea. She had tasted the tea in Liangyi Zhai before. It wasn’t particularly good, but it was also this year’s new tea.
"Boss, I have some clues about the matter you asked me to investigate last time."
Last time, Su Nuan accidentally heard what a few scholars said at the wonton stall, and asked Song Qi to investigate the cheating of Academician Cui Shaoyuan.
Hearing Song Qi bring this up, Su Nuan put down the teacup and motioned for Song Qi to continue.
"I have met those scholars that the boss mentioned. In their conversation, they mentioned that Cui Shaoyuan had received the examination papers before the examination."
"Is there such a thing?"
The leak of exam questions is a big deal. Su Nuan asked seriously, "Did anyone else in Wenxuan Academy get the exam papers in advance?"
"Probably not. The other students who passed the entrance exam at Wenxuan Academy are all good students, and their rankings in the entrance exam are well-deserved."
"So Cui Shaoyuan is the only one whose ranking is different from usual?"
Although it was a question, Su Nuan's tone was affirmative.
In other words, if there really was a leak of the exam questions, then Cui Shaoyuan was the only one who got them in the entire Wenxuan Academy. Otherwise, the unsatisfactory exam results of the others would have made this leak a hot topic.
"Do you know where Cui Shaoyuan got the test paper?"
"This villain can't be found."
It’s good to be able to find these, after all, Cui Shaoyuan has been dead for a long time.
After Song Qi left, Su Nuan asked Fusheng to go down and do his work, and she continued to wait for Ying Shu alone, but she became more and more anxious.
"Miss, do you need a fortune telling?"
A clear voice sounded behind her. Su Nuan turned around and saw Ying Shu squatting on the windowsill.
After not seeing him for a few days, he had lost some weight and looked much more energetic.
He was wearing a grey gown, quite low-key.
But that face was no longer as calm as before. His brows were relaxed, his eyes were clear, there was a smile on the corners of his lips, and the whole person looked lively and lively.
"I have a lot of words to test. Are you going to squat on the windowsill and test them for me?"
Hearing this, Ying Shu jumped down from the windowsill and said with a smile, "I didn't want to go through the window either. It's just that your driver is too powerful. I'm afraid he will recognize me if I show my figure in front of him."
"I asked him to park the carriage at the street corner. Are you afraid that he will recognize you from such a long distance?"
"The carriage is at the street corner, but the person is at the door."
Su Nuan sneered, thinking that Falcon was frightened by her ability to attract assassins.
No longer dwelling on this topic, she clasped her fists towards Ying Shu and said, "Thank you for having someone take care of me in the prison."
"That's not really taking care of me. You can take good care of yourself without me."
"Anyway, you're the only one who thought of a way to contact me, and I'm grateful to you."
"I accept your thanks." Ying Shu smiled, then said seriously, "Didn't you just say that there are a lot of words to test? Let's get started."
Seeing him suddenly return to the familiar Ying Shu, Su Nuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She took out a piece of drawing paper and slowly spread it out in front of Ying Shu. On it was a half-finished drawing of a beauty.
“That’s the first thing I’m going to test.”
