Chapter 164 Grandmother's Advice
Xie Wuya never gave up looking for someone to crack the chess game.
Unfortunately, there is no news.
He returned to the temple again and made an agreement with the eldest princess to return home every tenth day of every month to spend one day with her.
Today I had morning classes with Abbot Huiming. After finishing morning classes and preparing to go down the mountain, I heard news from Zhimiao Guan that the person who cracked the chess game went to Zhimiao Guan and was seen by Taoist Master Jiuyu.
Xie Wuya was doubtful and sent his entourage to Zhimiaoguan to inquire about Jiuyu.
Tao Tong stopped them and told them that Jiu Yu was preparing medicinal materials in the pharmacy and no one was allowed to disturb them during this period.
Xie Wuya was worried that the eldest princess would think too much about it, so he took the people down the mountain first. There are some clues on the left and right. I will come to the Taoist temple tomorrow to ask Jiuyu for questioning. I didn't expect to pick up this sachet at the foot of the mountain.
There had been no movement at all in Zhimiao Temple before, but this news suddenly came out, probably because the right person who solved the problem came to the Taoist Temple again.
Xie Wuya lowered his eyes and stared at the sachet in his hand, which exuded a faint herbal fragrance and a vague sandalwood scent.
A girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.
He couldn't help but think of Su Mixue taking credit for his previous work.
He didn't have much hope for the girl Jiu Yu mentioned, just because he was afraid of another misunderstanding.
Xie Wuya stepped on the carriage and returned to the eldest princess' mansion.
The eldest princess had been looking forward to it for a long time. After hearing the announcement from the maid, she stood at the door of the front hall and saw Xie Wuya strolling over. A kind smile appeared on her face: "Ya'er, are things delayed today? Mother thought you wouldn't be here today. came back."
"Today there is news about the person who solved the problem. It was delayed for a while." Xie Wuya handed the sachet in his hand to the eldest princess: "Mother, do you know this sachet?"
The eldest princess took it, carefully identified it, shook her head and said, "I don't know. Did the owner of this sachet solve the problem?"
Xie Wuya said lightly: "Yes, she is a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old."
The eldest princess frowned, thinking of some unpleasant things.
At this time, the entourage came back and reported: "Your Highness, Young Master, my subordinates have inquired about the person who went to Zhimiaoguan today, and only Miss Su is the most suitable. The person she went to see today was Taoist Master Jiuyu, who is exactly sixteen years old. "
"Miss Su? Which Miss Su?" The eldest princess couldn't help but her eyebrows jumped when she heard this surname.
"Su Wan."
"Wanwan?" The eldest princess asked in surprise: "Did she solve the chess game?"
"It's her." The entourage explained: "My subordinates thought they were mistaken before, and specifically asked the Taoist boy guarding the door. Today, Taoist Master Jiuyu has only seen Miss Su and another girl she brought. It is said that the girl is the long-lost sister of Taoist Master Jiuyu, and she has just returned to Beijing."
The eldest princess said in shock: "I didn't expect that this girl really cracked the chess game, and she didn't tell me."
At first, she was worried about Xie Wuya's refusal to go down the mountain. Su Wan coaxed her sweetly and said, "Aunt, please relax. Sooner or later, my cousin will come down from the mountain to fulfill your filial piety." He is doing what you like while you are young. Wan Wan will work hard to learn chess, hoping that one day I can beat my cousin's chess game and reunite you and my son as soon as possible. Your love for me will not be in vain.
After Su Wan got engaged to the prince, the eldest princess asked her to call her aunt.
Later I heard that Su Wan hired a gentleman to learn chess after he returned, but his talent was not high and there was no movement after a while.
Who knew that she would fulfill her promise and hide her merit and fame.
"This girl is warm-hearted and bloody. She followed the Qi family instead of the Su family. Now Su Mixue refuses to accept her favor and is relegated to the cold palace. Su Jihong treats this pheasant as a phoenix and severs ties with the children of his legitimate wife. ." The eldest princess looked disdainful: "It's a blessing for Wanwan. Having a family like them that eats people and doesn't spit out bones will drag her down sooner or later."
Calculating it this way, Su Jihong did a good thing.
The eldest princess heard about Su Wan's deeds and her career was flourishing.
Gu Huaizhi also won the title of Xie Yuan, and he will become an official in the future.
The eldest princess's eyes were kind: "Wanwan is my benefactor. From now on, those of us in the eldest princess's mansion should help her more."
Xie Wuya didn't say anything. He planned to meet Su Wan tomorrow.
If it is confirmed that she is the one who can solve the problem, she is a like-minded fellow Taoist, and Xie Wuya will naturally take care of her.
"Yayoi, please send a message to the Gu family and I will visit them tomorrow."
Xie Wuya ordered his followers.
"Huh? It's still early today, so let's go now." The eldest princess wanted to tell the maid to prepare a generous gift, but Xie Wuya stopped her: "We go rashly. If Su Wan has something of her own, why don't we give it to her?" Causing distress?"
The eldest princess thought for a while and realized that this was the truth. She sighed: "Okay, let's go tomorrow."
——
As Xie Wuya guessed, Su Wan did have her own things to do.
She has been busy since she came to Beijing, and everything is well arranged.
After returning from Zhimiaoguan, she went to Dingyuan Hou Mansion to visit Mrs. Su.
When the doorman saw that it was Su Wan, he was frightened. He blocked the crack in the door and said, "Miss, the Marquis said you are not allowed to enter the house."
"Really?" Su Wan blinked at him.
The doorman was stunned and didn't understand what Su Wan meant. Before he could recover, Su Wan suddenly got angry and punched him.
The moment his fist was about to touch his face, the doorman screamed and fell to the ground.
When the other servants saw this, they were frightened and ran away to complain.
Su Wan curled her lips and walked in boldly.
He put his hands behind his back and gave a thumbs up to the doorman.
The servant was lying on the ground, his hands and feet were weak. If he didn't react in time and the eldest lady couldn't hold back her fists, all the teeth in his mouth would be broken, right?
Su Wan went straight to Fuxi Hall, and no one dared to stop her.
Because Su Wan was really capable of beating people. Although Mr. Hou posted a notice to sever the relationship between father and daughter, the father and daughter had never met. Who knows how true or false Mr. Hou was?
Arriving at Fuxi Hall without any obstruction, Xiao Tao saw her running over happily: "Miss! You are finally back!"
People in the room heard Xiaotao's loud voice, and Mrs. Su came out of the room on crutches.
"Wanwan, you're back!" Mrs. Su's eyes were red, she touched Su Wan, muttering "I've lost weight, I've lost weight" and said apologetically: "It's no use grandma, let him break up with you. Relationship, it’s a joke for everyone.”
"Grandma, don't blame yourself. I'm fine. He broke off relations with me, which is exactly what I want. You don't have to worry about him forcing me to use filial piety in the future." Su Wan helped Mrs. Su into the house and helped Mrs. Su sit down. , took her pulse, made sure her body was recovering well, and said with a relaxed expression, "Are you okay during this period?"
Mrs. Su observed Su Wan and made sure that she was not sad about this incident, and she felt a little calmer.
"I'm fine. In a few days, grandma will go to the monastery to practice cultivation. From now on, she won't come to this prince's mansion."
The old grandma quickly took out a wooden box and placed it on the small table.
Mrs. Su held the box and put it in Su Wan's hand: "You have to hide the things in here."
