Shengjing Noble

Chapter 268 Simple Mind

"This is a long story, and it is not appropriate to tell it to outsiders. If you want to hear it, just follow me."

"it is good."

Su Lanyin handed the person to Su Shengming, then followed Fu Wuyang to a wooden table and sat down.

She poured a cup of hot water and pushed it over: "Your Majesty, please speak."

Fu Wuyang patiently explained, "I once had a confidante. She and her husband both passed away in an accident, leaving behind a baby girl who was over half a year old."

"Later, I adopted the baby girl, but at that time I was tired of the intrigues in Shengjing, so I decided to venture into the world of martial arts. So I handed the child to the housekeeper and the wet nurse, and then I went out."

"One year later, when I returned to the palace, I learned that the wet nurse had stolen the palace's gold, silver and treasures and ran away. Not only that, she also took away my adopted daughter!"

"The butler of the palace could not contact me, and he had limited power. He searched for a year but to no avail. When I went back to look for her, it was too late. The world is so big, and all the information about the wet nurse was an imposter. It was impossible to find her whereabouts."

When Su Lanyin heard this, she already had a vague premonition in her heart, but she did not speak, but listened silently.

"After a long time, I put this matter aside for the time being and started to investigate the Crown Prince. He appeared to be well-behaved and sensible in front of his brother, but he was doing something shameful behind his back."

"It took me a long time to find the clues. Especially recently, I found that he was trying to win me over, so I immediately knew what his purpose was. He even asked Su Lanxin to find the jade ring that I lost in order not to arouse my suspicion."

"Wait, what jade ring?" Su Lanyin couldn't help but ask.

"The late emperor once gave me a jade ring that could be used to mobilize troops. Later, when my brother ascended the throne, I was afraid that he would be afraid and didn't want to alienate my brother, so I broke the jade ring into two pieces."

"Half of the jade ring was worn by my adopted daughter, and the other half was kept by me. I didn't expect that my adopted daughter would be stolen, so that the prince set his eyes on that half of the jade ring."

Fu Wuyang's eyes flashed with helplessness and he sighed heavily.

Perhaps to him, the jade ring that could mobilize divine soldiers was not a good thing, but a mountain that was suffocating him, or a piece of gunpowder that could explode at any time.

Su Lanyin frowned, and many thoughts suddenly emerged in her mind.

"You broke the jade ring into two pieces, and put one half on your adopted daughter, and then your adopted daughter was stolen... Your Majesty, don't you think this is strange?"

Fu Wuyang said sternly: "No random speculation!"

"Oh." Su Lanyin curled her lips and said no more.

I guess he also knows the twists and turns, but he just doesn't want to say it out loud.

How can there be such a coincidence in this world?

A wet nurse wouldn't dare to steal the prince's child even if she had the courage of a bear or a leopard, right?

Moreover, King Xiaoyao is not an ordinary prince. His influence in the underworld is spread all over the country. How could he not find any clues?

Unless a power greater than his intervenes and prevents him from finding it.

Thinking of this, all the troubles disappeared, and all the truth was at my fingertips, but I couldn't express it in words.

The emperor in the deep palace was considered a merciful emperor because he did not let the wet nurse kill King Xiaoyao's adopted daughter.

Fu Wuyang continued, "Not long ago, I heard that the Crown Prince and Su Lanxin were meeting frequently in private, so I sent someone to keep an eye on her, and they found some clues."

"She and Liu Ruyan could have stayed in Shengjing with Su Shenghao to enjoy a good life, but they chose to go to Qiu County where the conditions are difficult. According to my investigation, this mother and daughter are lazy and greedy. They don't seem like a good wife and filial son who would follow Su Yongcheng through thick and thin."

"So I came to Qiu County and found out that the task the prince gave to Su Lanxin was to ask her to help find the jade ring! I didn't hesitate and directly ordered Su Yongcheng to find the whereabouts of the jade ring as well."

"In this case, they will definitely be entangled. The Crown Prince is far away in Shengjing and cannot reach him, but I am close to him. As long as I give them some benefits, people with such short-sightedness will naturally not be able to resist the temptation."

Su Lanyin laughed dryly: "Your Majesty really knows them very well."

Fu Wuyang frowned: "Isn't it easy to understand such a simple-minded and stupid person?"

This question left people speechless.

Among the people in the Su family, only Liu Ruyan looks smart, the rest are all idiots.

Su Lanyin even felt that it was a shame to have fallen into their hands in her previous life.

However, she was indeed very stupid in her previous life, and her mother taught her to be too kind and soft-hearted, which is why she allowed their family to succeed.

"My Lord, have you found your adopted daughter?"

"No." Fu Wuyang shook his head disappointedly, "But the jade ring was found."

Su Lanyin swallowed nervously and asked, "Your Majesty, can you let me see your jade ring?"

"Naturally."

Fu Wuyang had completely let down his guard against her. After all, judging from her character, this girl was indeed kind and trustworthy.

He took out a purse, opened it and took out the jade ring. The half had been glued together, leaving a thin line.

When Su Lanyin saw this, she felt a rumbling sound in her head and exclaimed: The world is really ridiculously small.

"Your Highness...there is something I don't know whether I should tell you." She looked at him nervously.

"what's up?"

"This jade ring...my sister also has one."

"Your sister?"

"Ok!"

Su Lanyin nodded heavily, with anticipation in her eyes: "Does Your Majesty want to meet my sister?"

"Where did you get your sister? As far as I know, Lu Wanjun only has three sons and one daughter, and there is no one younger than you."

"I picked her up. She was trafficked to Guose Tianxiang, and then she pretended to be stupid and escaped. I picked her up when she was begging on the street."

"Are you telling the truth?"

"How can it be false?"

Fu Wuyang suddenly became nervous, his eyes full of unnaturalness and even a little panic.

"Then this king...can this king see her now?"

"Of course, please wait a moment, I will bring the fish here right away."

"Wait, what's her name?" Fu Wuyang asked excitedly.

"Xiaoyu, her name is Xiaoyu."

"Xiao Yu...Okay, please bring the person here."

"Ah."

Su Lanyin immediately ran to the next floor. Xiaoyu was following Sister Wen to look after the little sister.

Fu Wuyang stood up and fumbled to straighten his clothes, his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement.

He had been looking for it for so many years, and finally he found it!

Fortunately, the person is still alive, otherwise how would he explain to Ah Zhu when he goes downstairs later!

After a while, Su Lanyin came in with a little girl who looked like a porcelain doll.

Xiaoyu didn't know what was going on. He held Su Lanyin's fingers tightly, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Sister, is this the uncle you said you would take me to see?"
