The Fourth Lady
Chapter 98 Appearance of a Corpse I
Just then, a shrewd voice sounded, and when Qingyan turned to look, she saw Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yuzhen with a bunch of people standing behind them. Those people behind them she was rather familiar with, they seemed to be the cooks she'd reserved from Julong Zhai. But to make this big of a clamor...
Could it be that Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yuzhen were here to watch a show?
Qingyan glared to Murong Jingxuan, her gaze seemed to be saying, 'I can't believe you brought the Fourth Prince to my house to watch a show."
Murong Jingxuan helplessly shrug his shoulders. The eunuch beside Xuanyuan Yuzhen already began to read the imperial edict, saying that for Su Yun's return, this delicious meal from Julong Zhai was specially bestowed to him. The imperial edict even emphasized that this meal was for Su Yun.
After reading out the imperial edict, the eunuch left. And yet, Xuanyuan Yuzhen and Murong Jingxuan remained behind.
Qingyan saw the dishes in the cooks' hands standing before her and looked to Su Yun with a smile, "Father, do you want to eat in the main hall or in my yard?"
Su Yun glanced to the eager Su Ming and Su Yan and unwittingly thought of those things. He'd always felt he was sorry towards Qingyan, and seeing their expectant gazes, he simply said, "I'm a bit tried from the journey today, since second sister-in-law didn't prepare anything, then I'll just go to Yan'er yard."
With that said, Su Yun went ahead and left, pulling Qingyan away, and following after was Luo Bing and Su Qingyu. As for Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yuzhen, they naturally followed as well.
Seeing the crowd's back walking away in the distance, Su Ming and Su Yan could only angrily grind their teeth, but couldn't do anything about it.
Ning Siyao watched their retreating backs and could only claw into her skin. Didn't her elder brother say everything was already arranged so that Su Yun and Luo Bing won't be able to return alive. So then why did it become like this now?
Not only returning safe and sound, they even received his Majesty's bestowment of honor. Even though it was only a table of dishes, it was still his Majesty's immense favoring.
"Just what in the world is going on, second brother?" Su Yan looked to Su Ming with a look of doubt.
