Chapter 439 Call Me Sister
"Is there no clue at all? No one even suspects?"
Yu Qi shook his head. "It doesn't look like something that ordinary thieves would do, nor is it an individual crime. It's more like a gang, but this gang came and went without a trace."
"How is it possible for someone to come and go without a trace?"
"So that's what's causing the headache."
Su Yun frowned, "What about those missing children? Is there no news about them either?"
Yu Qi shook his head, "I don't see the person alive, I don't see the body dead, it's just gone."
Hearing this, Su Yun took a deep breath.
She looked at Yu Qi and asked doubtfully, "Could it be her?"
she?
Yu Qi quickly realized that Su Yun was talking about Lin Shian’s wife, Qing An Ning - Li Juanling.
He shook his head. "It can't be her. These days, she has been concentrating on making friends with Qing Ning. The two of them are inseparable. She has no way to split herself to contact anyone. Besides, she killed Li Fu herself, so she has no help."
"Okay, it's okay." She changed the subject, "Qingning has been okay these days, too? You have to be careful, that man is cunning, don't let Qingning suffer any loss."
Yu Qi clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your concern. I know what I am doing and will never let Qingning suffer any loss."
"Ah."
"My minister retire."
Yu Qi stood up and got off the carriage.
Xiao Yaoer leaned close to Su Yun and asked, "Mother, is there anyone who specializes in catching children?"
Su Yun nodded, "Yes, so let Young Master Xie live in the Crown Prince's Mansion from now on, and wait until the holiday or after these bad guys are caught."
Xie Yunchu: “…”
Do you want to be separated from your father and mother?
Although Princess Yao protected him and was very cute, he still missed his father and mother.
Hanxiang was just a little scared, "This is an important place in the capital, the thieves are too bold."
Who said no?
Su Yun naturally noticed that Xie Yunchu seemed a little disappointed.
I couldn't help feeling a little guilty that this child was forced to be separated from his family at such a young age.
What is this thing called?
Arrived at the Duke Zhenguo’s Mansion.
Just after someone was sent to report, not long after, everyone in the Xie family, young and old, except Xie Yanheng who went to the army, came out to greet them.
It was so grand that Su Yun felt a little embarrassed.
In the main hall.
Su Yun sat in the main seat, holding Xiao Yaoer, looking very casual.
Old Duke Xie sat on the lower left, followed by the old Duke's wife and Xie Yanheng's wife Ou Yurong. At this time, Xie Yunchu was snuggling beside Ou Yurong.
She explained the purpose of this trip.
As expected, seeing the depression flashing across Ou Yurong's face, Old Duke Xie didn't think it was a big deal. "It is Yun Chu's honor to be liked by the princess and to be her study companion. There is no point for us to wait."
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo nodded slightly.
Ou Yurong was the same, but her hand kept stroking her son's arm.
Su Yun said, "Madam Xie, I know that as parents, the thing we miss most is our children. So although Young Master Xie cannot come back home every day, if Madam Xie has time, she can come to the Prince's Mansion often. Is that okay?"
Ou Yurong, who was originally depressed, immediately became more cheerful upon hearing this. She quickly stood up and saluted, "Thank you very much, Queen, for your grace. I will follow your arrangements."
"Okay, it's settled then. Madam Xie can go to the Prince's Mansion to see Young Master Xie at any time."
"Yes, I thank the Queen for her grace."
As he spoke, Ou Yurong pulled Xie Yunchu and bowed deeply to Su Yun.
At this moment, Xie Yunchu understood even more clearly that this was the relationship between a ruler and his subjects.
It is just like the servants in the house, when they see their grandfather, grandmother, or even father and mother showing kindness, they will kneel down and salute.
He couldn't tell the difference between a ruler and his subjects, and between a master and his servant.
However, he knew that although his status was extremely noble to some people, to the royal family, he was just a minister.
His identity is different from Princess Xiao Yao's.
Or maybe, the relationship between the monarch and his subjects is actually no different from the relationship between the master and his servants...
In Xie Yunchu's heart, he had a preliminary understanding of the relationship between him and Xiao Yao as king and subject.
Just like what Taifu Ding said to him when he met him on the first day: The king is the leader of his ministers. If the king wants his minister to die, the minister has to die.
Master Ding wants him to respect Xiao Yao, but not too obviously, otherwise it will cause the princess to become too conceited and even not study hard.
And he himself also has to study hard. As a student of Master Ding, Master Ding said that he has high hopes for him and hopes that he can take part in the imperial examination in the future and top the list.
Return trip.
Su Yun asked Xie Yunchu, "Your mother can come to see you often in the future. If you really miss your father and mother, you can also ask Lord Zhou to escort you back."
Xie Yunchu was flattered, and couldn't hide his expression at all, grinning and saying, "Thank you, Queen. I'll remember this."
"Such a young child, but you keep calling yourself a minister. I am sorry to embarrass you."
"I'm not embarrassed."
Xiao Yaoer said, "Master Ding said he should call himself that."
Su Yun thought for a moment, "When your Aunt Qingning is out, she calls me a slave, but when she is in front of me, there are not so many rules."
"Oh, mother, I understand."
She looked at Xie Yunchu and said, "I have a good relationship with Brother Yunchu, so we don't have to be so formal in private?"
Su Yun nodded.
Xiao Yaoer continued: "Brother Yunchu is still studying with me. He is my mentor and friend. I should treat him sincerely."
"good."
"Brother Yunchu, don't call me princess in private from now on. Call me sister."
Xie Yunchu rolled his big, innocent eyes.
Su Yun smiled and said, "Thank you, young master. You must treat Xiao Yao'er as a friend."
"Yes, I have recorded it."
Xiao Yaoer looked at him and said, "Come on, you haven't called me sister yet, come on and call me sister."
The little girl blushed and called out sweetly, "Sister."
"Shout again."
"elder sister."
"not enough."
"elder sister……"
Xiao Yaoer was delighted to hear this. She leaned against the carriage and laughed, "Good brother, I will protect you from now on."
"Ah."
He thought it was a happy thing to have the princess sister protecting him.
"That sounds great, mother. I am a sister now, too."
Xiao Yaoer was happy from the bottom of her heart. When brother Chen came back, she would be the first to tell him that they had a younger brother, Yunchu.
After returning to Taifu.
Xiao Lusheng is still nowhere to be seen.
It can be seen that the case of missing children is quite serious.
Su Yun asked Tang An to arrange accommodation for Xie Yunchu, which was next to the princess's villa, right next to Li Luoyuan.
She personally made the bed for Xie Yunchu and watched Hanxiang and others clean the yard and the room.
During dinner, I also took my two children with me.
Xie Yunchu was reserved at first, but finally he relaxed a little after seeing that Su Yun really liked him.
"Mother, I have finished my dinner and I am going to study with my brother."
"It's a good thing to study late into the night, but don't overdo it. Half an hour at most, and then let the nanny or Aunt Yirui take you there."
As she spoke, Su Yun seemed to remember something, and said to Tang An, "Pick two people who are nimble and skillful to serve Young Master Xie."
"Yes, I obey."
