Chapter 232: Something Happened(1/2)
That night, Xia Xinyue came back from Princess Anping's Mansion.
Since it was getting late, she invited Cui You and Yin Yaoqin to go to the hall for a chat the next day.
After the three of them sat down, Xia Xinyue was very grateful and said: "Cui Shaoxia, sister Yaoqin, thanks to you two this time, otherwise I would definitely have died this time."
Thinking of what happened yesterday, Xia Xinyue was still frightened.
She has never encountered such danger since she was a child.
It was such a critical moment that I almost died.
"This is what we should do." Yin Yaoqin said.
"How are you two injured? I have already asked for a lot of healing elixirs from my aunt, why don't you take them and see which ones can be used?" After Xia Xinyue finished speaking, she stood beside her.
The cuckoo'er immediately came over carrying a tray.
There are many bottles and jars on it.
Although I couldn't see what kind of elixir it contained, I guess it was taken from Princess Anping's mansion and it was not an ordinary elixir.
After all, Princess Anping's Mansion loves Xia Xinyue very much, can the things they give her be bad?
"Your Highness~ Oh, sister, my junior brother and I are no longer seriously injured. We just need to rest for a few days," Yin Yaoqin said.
There are no outsiders here, so she is treated like a sister.
"Then I'm relieved." Xia Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief, "Why don't you keep these pills first?"
"Okay, then my junior brother and I will choose a few." Yin Yaoqin nodded.
Although they have elixirs from the Five Gods Sect, it was Princess Anping who took the initiative after all, so I believe there are some that the Five Gods Sect does not have.
Besides, this is also the princess's good intention, so it would be inappropriate not to accept it at all.
The two of them quickly selected a few elixirs.
"Is that enough?"
"Sister, that's enough. We still have some. Besides, there is also a place for our Five Gods Sect to stay in the city, and we can also get replenishment of elixirs there." Yin Yaoqin said with a smile.
"That's right." Xia Xinyue smiled.
She waved her hand and let Juan'er and Ying'er go down.
"You must want to know who attacked me." Xia Xinyue said.
"We heard that he should be from the Jiang family." Cui You said.
"Yes, it's them." Xia Xinyue nodded, "I knew before that the Jiang family was domineering, but I didn't expect that they actually wanted my life."
"Sister, are they doing this to target Her Highness the Princess?" Yin Yaoqin asked.
"Of course I want to attack my father." Xia Xinyue sighed, "They are becoming more and more lawless."
"Don't you care, Your Majesty?" Cui You asked.
He didn't believe that the current queen didn't know about such a thing.
"This matter is not that simple." Xia Xinyue shook her head and said.
Cui You didn't ask any more questions.
He understood that this must involve a struggle between various forces.
Even the current queen must be treated with caution.
"Sister, you should be more careful, especially since the house needs to strengthen its defense," Yin Yaoqin said.
"Don't worry too much about it." Xia Xinyue shook her head and said, "In Luoyang City, they should be more restrained."
Yin Yaoqin thinks about it too.
If they attack the princess's palace in the city and want to assassinate the princess, once this happens, I believe the queen will not be able to ignore it.
And if it happened outside, everyone would just turn a blind eye.
After all, the battle between Princess Anping's Mansion and the Jiang family lasted more than a day or two.
You come and I go, if you suffer a loss today, he may suffer a loss tomorrow.
"No matter what, you have to pay attention to something." Yin Yaoqin said.
"That's what my sister said." Xia Xinyue nodded solemnly, "Who knows if those guys will become crazy? I will ask my aunt for help and ask her to send some experts to my house."
"That's very good." Yin Yaoqin nodded.
It is impossible for their disciples from the Five Gods Sect to serve as guards at the princess's mansion.
She and her junior brother came here to serve as temporary guards, and even this kind of thing rarely happened.
Of course Xia Xinyue understood this, but she didn't say anything about asking the Five Gods Sect to help.
"Sister, you two have to stay in my house for a while longer so that I can thank you properly," Xia Xinyue said.
"I'm afraid this is not what we have the final say." Yin Yaoqin shook her head and said, "The news of our arrival in Luoyang has been sent back to the sect. We are waiting for the news from the sect. When the time comes, we will have to go back."
"I believe that the seniors of the Five Gods Sect will also take care of you. It's hard to come to Luoyang once. Wouldn't it be a pity to go back in such a hurry?"
There are many good places and a lot of delicious food, which I believe you will not be able to eat in the Five Gods Sect. How about I take you out tomorrow?"
"Sister, you forgot, junior brother and I are still injured." Yin Yaoqin said with a bitter smile.
Xia Xinyue was stunned for a moment, and then said with a slight embarrassment: "Look, I forgot. This is fine. You two can recover at home. I'll order people to prepare some delicious food in Luoyang City.
Prepare some. This way you can enjoy it without going out."
"Wouldn't that be very expensive?" Yin Yaoqin said.
"Sister, it's rare for you to come here. Am I still reluctant to spend this little money?" Xia Xinyue smiled, and then lowered her voice and said, "But don't tell me, the little silver the imperial court gave me is really worth it."
It’s not enough. Every time it’s not enough, I always go to my aunt to ask for it.”
Hearing this, Cui You couldn't help but laugh secretly.
These royal family members receive corresponding salaries from the court every year, which is theoretically enough.
But these royal family members are usually quite luxurious, so this salary seems a bit insufficient.
They usually have other sources of income.
Xia Xinyue actually has some farms under her name, and these are her income.
It's just that she is a princess, and there are not many of these farms.
In addition, she is still young and has not purchased any other properties, so the household expenses often exceed her income.
When she was short of money, she would naturally go to her aunt for help.
"Then we won't be polite." Yin Yaoqin covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Of course you're welcome. I'm a landlord, so I have to fulfill my duties as a landlord." Xia Xinyue waved her hands and said, "Oh, if you need anything, just ask, I won't say anything and I can help you get it.
But at least there are seven or eight. If it doesn’t work, I’ll ask my aunt again, she’s the most powerful, there’s nothing she can’t do.”
Cui You could tell that Xia Xinyue still admired her aunt.
Especially the way she speaks speaks volumes.
However, there are rumors among the people that Princess Anping is following the mother's style.
Her mother was a queen, and she was naturally very capable.
So Cui You naturally admires Princess Anping from the bottom of his heart. She is indeed a powerful woman.
"Then my junior brother just wants to trouble my sister about something." Yin Yaoqin said with a smile.
"Really? Just tell me, I can definitely do it." Xia Xinyue suddenly became interested.
Yin Yaoqin turned her head and glanced at Cui You.
Cui You didn't hesitate and told Cui Mingju's story.
"Listening to what you said, it's really possible that the eldest lady of the Cui family is your eldest sister." Xia Xinyue pondered for a while and said, "There is one more thing that I'm afraid is consistent with what you said, Cui Shaoxia."
"What's the matter?" Cui You couldn't help but asked hurriedly.
Could it be that the princess thinks that the eldest daughter of the Cui family looks very similar to her?
But this doesn't make sense. The princess has never met her eldest sister.
"Miss Cui seems to have only come to Luoyang City a few years ago. Well, it was probably seven or eight years ago, so it should be about this time. So as you said, the Cui Village was robbed and the time when your siblings were separated does match.
"Xia Xinyue said.
Cui You's breathing became a little rapid.
Once again, they matched up, Cui You believed that it must be the eldest sister, there was no mistake.
"This can't be a coincidence." Yin Yaoqin said.
"I think so too." Xia Xinyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, this matter is difficult for others to handle, so it shouldn't be a big problem for me. I am also a woman, and I would like to invite the eldest daughter of the Cui family to my house.
It should be fine."
