Chapter 368 General Gong is not available, I will make the decision~
Gong Yuanzhi looked at Su Rou and unconsciously became a little scared. Although he couldn't move his body, he slowly moved on the bed and moved to the side.
"He asked me to join Zui Xiang Lou."
Su Rou said, "Let you join them? He really wants to take over the military power in your hands. He even called the Eleventh Prince over last night. Is he planning to seize power and rebel?"
The Eleventh Prince has been very popular in front of that old man recently, so it is understandable that Asi wants to win over the Eleventh Prince.
Gong Yuanzhi said, "I don't know about the rest...but Ah Si does seem to have the intention of rebelling."
Su Rou said, "Why does he want to rebel? Is he also dissatisfied with that old man?"
Gong Yuanzhi said, "Who knows? Now that you've cleaned up the Yuan family and taken revenge, destroying Zui Xiang Lou along with it, what are you going to do next?"
Su Rou said, "Zuixianglou and Master Yuanwen are both related to that old man. It's not all for me. The next thing should be to solve the problem of the Eleventh Prince."
They had to ensure that the Eleventh Prince was willing to rebel against them and would not sell them out.
Gong Yuanzhi said, "You didn't get any rest the whole night yesterday. Go back and have a good rest before you go out and do anything else."
Su Rou lowered her eyes, unable to conceal her extreme excitement.
"I've come this far. Do you think I can rest properly? I also want to know what that old man's expression will be when Zui Xiang Lou disappears. I have to go out and get some information."
She stood up and prepared to leave.
Gong Yuanzhi looked at Su Rou's back and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Gong Yu hasn't come back yet, and no one can stop Su Rou from going crazy.
Su Rou was walking on the street wearing a mask, but after she had taken only two steps, she was bumped into on the shoulder by a hurried figure.
"Sorry, I was in a hurry and didn't see you." The voice sounded familiar.
Su Rou bent down to help the other person pick up something, but her hand paused.
Second brother?
What is he doing on the street?
Su Rou saw that Su Feng was holding some pastries he had just bought. When her fingertips touched the oil paper on the outside, she felt the warmth.
It's still fresh from the pan.
Now that she is wearing a mask, her second brother will definitely not be able to find any clues, not to mention that her voice has been deliberately changed.
Su Rou said, "My Lord, do you like sweets?"
Su Feng picked up all the cakes on the ground and held them in his arms. "No, I bought them for my children. You can eat the osmanthus cake in your hand. I'm really sorry for knocking you over. I have to go back first, otherwise the children will make a fuss again."
Su Rou paused her hand in mid-air and looked at the osmanthus cake in her hand.
The child at home, are you referring to the fake Su Rou or the child born by the fake Su Rou?
She didn't dare eat it, so she put the package of pastries away and prepared to show it to her third brother when she got home in the evening.
A fire broke out in Zui Xiang Lou early in the morning, and people were discussing the matter everywhere on the streets.
"Your Majesty is backing Zui Xiang Lou. First, the Yuan family was wiped out, and now Zui Xiang Lou is in trouble again. I'm afraid it was all aimed at Your Majesty."
"I think they're targeting the Yuan family. The Yuan family dominates the business world, so how could they not have enemies? The only one still alive in the Yuan family is probably the young lady who is being taken care of by Lord Shang, and some of the Yuan family's collateral branches."
"The young lady of the Yuan family is also a lucky person. She was born in such a family, but was driven out by her own blood relatives who took the position of head of the family. She never thought that one day she would be able to return to the Yuan family."
……
Su Rou sat on the bench and took a sip of sugar water.
She smacked her lips and thought it was a bit bland. Maybe the shop didn't put enough sugar in it?
After the third brother came back from Zui Xiang Lou with them early in the morning, he went out again.
The third brother comes and goes without a trace, and no one knows what he is busy with.
Su Rou put down the empty bowl, looked at the busy street in the distance and sighed.
"Miss, would you like another bowl of sweet soup?" asked the shop owner.
Su Rou waved her hand. "I'm drunk. Come back next time. How much?"
"Two cents."
Su Rou paid the money, stood up and walked towards the bustling street.
Although she wanted to come out and find out some information, it would not be easy for her to find out what was going on in the palace in the short term.
Unless you go directly into the palace.
But she hated that place and felt that she didn't have to enter the palace, there was no other way.
"I want a candied haws, the biggest one." Su Rou stopped the candied haws seller, paid the money, and continued walking forward with the candied haws.
She turned and entered an alley, and the person behind her quickly followed her. However, after entering the alley, the person found that it was a dead end and there was no sign of Su Rou inside.
Realizing that he had been discovered, he was about to leave. As soon as he turned around, he saw Su Rou with a candied haws in her mouth appear behind him, blocking his way.
"Whose family are you from? Why are you following me?"
The man was a little nervous. "I don't know what you are talking about. I'm just passing by here."
Su Rou chewed the hawthorn in her mouth, pinched the bamboo stick, and swallowed the hawthorn.
"You don't have to tell me. I'll just die here."
She bit the remaining whole string of candied haws, pushed the man against the wall, and the dustpan that was originally placed on the wall fell down.
She was about to hit him with her other hand, but the man backed off.
"I was sent by Miss Yuan. Please don't hit me. My master is Yuan Wen. You will definitely recognize him."
Su Rou stopped what she was doing and said, "Do you have something to prove your identity? Take it out and let me see it, otherwise I won't believe you."
Yuan Wen would not follow her, so why would he follow her?
The man took out a badge and said, "My master only told me to follow the girl and report what she did. He didn't give me any other instructions. I don't have any bad intentions."
Su Rou took the badge, and there was a word "Shang" written on it.
This person is not from the Yuan family, but from the Shang family. Yuan Wen does not have the Yuan family as his backing, so the only one he can rely on now is Shang Jiu.
but……
Su Rou still didn't believe it.
She threw the badge back. "Even if you have bad intentions, you have to be able to do it... Go get Yuan Wen to come see me. Otherwise, I still don't trust you. Yuan Wen isn't the only one who can work for this badge. There's also Shang Jiu."
The man shook his head in fear, "Don't worry, young lady. If you don't believe me, you can follow me to the Shang Mansion. I will ask Miss Yuan to come and see you."
Su Rou said, "Go back and ask Yuan Wen to go to the General's Mansion. I'm afraid Shang Jiu will set a trap for me and I won't be able to come back."
After Su Rou said this, she disappeared at the entrance of the alley.
She bit off the last candied haws and threw the bamboo stick aside.
"I'm a little tired from walking around, I should go back and take a nap."
When Su Rou returned home, Shang Jiu was sitting in the main hall.
What do they both want to do.
Su Rou didn't see Yuan Wen, so she thought that Shang Jiu didn't see her and went back to Yuanzi directly.
But he was stopped by the guards around Shang Jiu.
"Miss, my master wants to talk to you. Please go to the main hall."
The eyes under Su Rou's mask were calm and peaceful. "No, I need to rest."
The guards in front of her still refused to move away.
Su Rou turned her gaze and looked at Shang Jiu who was calmly drinking tea in the main room.
"If you block my way, I might break your other leg too."
Shang Jiu put down the teacup in his hand and said, "I came here today to see Gong Yuanzhi. His Majesty wants to thoroughly investigate the case of the Yuan family's massacre, as well as the fire at Zui Xiang Lou this morning. Please ask Gong Yuanzhi to come and cooperate with my investigation."
Shang Jiu was obviously more polite in his words to her.
Gong Yuanzhi couldn't get out of bed at this moment. He couldn't even straighten his back after being hit by Asi.
If Shang Jiu saw him like that, wouldn't he be exposed immediately?
Su Rou didn't waste time talking to him. She stepped over the threshold and sat down opposite Shang Jiu.
"General Gong is very busy. He was busy with official business yesterday and didn't sleep all night. If you have anything to say, please tell me. General Gong is busy in the general's mansion. I'll make the decision~"
Shang Jiu: “?”
"What's the relationship between the young lady and Gong Yuanzhi? You said you're in charge of the General's Mansion. Is Gong Yuanzhi too busy with all sorts of affairs, or was he busy setting fire to Zui Xiang Lou all night last night, so he can't come?"
Su Rou smiled and said, "Look, believe it or not, I was the one who received you. Madam Gong and General Gong didn't come out to see you. Doesn't this directly prove that I didn't lie?"
