Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 239: Aquaman is about to be discovered

The banquet was over. Others didn't know, but the three brothers were quite satisfied.

After returning home, Shu Xiaoxiao thought more and more that something was wrong. If she was not mistaken, the girl who had just said goodbye to her sister-in-law should be the girl she met in Yunguang Temple, who gave the silver to the scholar from the Sea King.

The first time she encountered a private meeting with the King of the Sea, she watched it very carefully.

She assured that her big eyes, which were not at all short-sighted, would not make a mistake. It was that girl. But judging from the look on her face today, that girl and her eldest sister-in-law should be from the same family. Her eldest sister-in-law would not be so close to her concubine's sister. It seemed that she must be her eldest sister-in-law's biological sister.

Her sister-in-law has always been very nice to her. It's okay if she is an outsider, but her sister-in-law's younger sister has also met people, and it's not easy for her to just sit back and do nothing after knowing about it. So, for the sake of her sister-in-law, she reminded her, after all, they are a family.

I hope my sister-in-law’s younger sister isn’t a love troublemaker, otherwise, the thought of it makes me feel suffocated.

Thinking of this, Shu Xiaoxiao went straight to her eldest brother's yard.

It's easy to lose sleep if you keep worrying about something that's not resolved, so let my sister-in-law take care of this matter.

Because they were attending the palace banquet, everyone in the mansion had returned and should be in their own courtyards. It was getting late, so she could come back to wash up and go to bed.

Zhou Wenxiu was surprised to hear Shu Xiaoxiao coming over. Because her sister-in-law was dressed as a man, she rarely spent time with her in private. Was there anything wrong with her coming over so late?

Shu Xiaoxiao saw her elder brother and elder sister-in-law coming out, scratched her head, and coughed lightly: "Ahem, elder brother, go ahead and do whatever you want, I have something to talk to my elder sister-in-law about."

Shu Tingyu came out of the study room on purpose and said, "Well, I still have some official business to deal with. You guys take a seat first and I'll go deal with my official business first." After saying that, he felt something was wrong. He really had some official business to deal with, but why did this sound like an excuse?

But after looking at his wife and sister, he finally returned to the study. It might be a matter of his daughter's family, so it was right for him to leave.

Shu Xiaoxiao looked around again and said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, I have something to talk to you alone. Is it convenient?"

In the end, the girl is her eldest sister-in-law's younger sister, or an unmarried girl. She has to keep it a secret. It will not be good if the news gets out. She doesn't know who can be believed and who cannot be believed among the people in her eldest sister-in-law's place. If someone with good intentions gets out, it will be a bad thing with good intentions. It will be too late to regret it. She should just kick them out.

Zhou Wenxiu knew that this was her sister-in-law, and without any hesitation, she asked her to leave immediately.

The rest were easy to deal with, but the older maid hesitated: "Young Madam, otherwise I will stay here."

Boys and girls should not sit together for seven years, and cousins ​​are three thousand miles apart. No matter what, the cousin is also a boy, and they are a single man and a single woman, so she would feel more at ease to keep him.

"Madam, don't worry. Your husband is nearby."

Shu Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed. If she had known this would happen, she would not be so anxious. She would talk about it tomorrow. She must remember that she is a man now and must avoid things that should be avoided.

After all the servants left, Zhou Wenxiu asked in a gentle voice, "Xiaoxiao, what happened? Just tell me. What's the matter? Sister-in-law is here."

"Nothing else, I just want to ask you, sister-in-law, who was the girl in green clothes that you were holding hands with when we came back today?"

Green clothes? Holding hands? Today she held hands with the second sister, who happened to be wearing green clothes today. Was she trying to find out about the second sister?

If it was really her cousin who wanted her to find out about her younger sister, she would definitely be angry, but knowing that this was her younger sister, she knew that he certainly would not covet her younger sister. Xiaoxiao usually knew her limits.

Zhou Wenxiu was surprised but said truthfully: "This is my second sister from my mother's family. She is about the same age and her family is looking for a boyfriend for her. We just chatted a little more today. Is there anything wrong?"

Shu Xiaoxiao carefully chose her words: "Sister-in-law, this is it. You see, although I am in school now, I fish for two days and dry the nets for three days. I am free and have plenty of time. When I have nothing to do, I like to run out and play. I think I saw Sister Zhou in Yunguang Temple before. I saw her give a bag of silver to a scholar."

Looking at the expression of the eldest sister-in-law, Shu Xiaoxiao continued: "I didn't know that Sister Zhou was the eldest sister-in-law's sister, but now that I know, I must remind the eldest sister-in-law."

"I have seen that scholar more than once, and I have also encountered him taking money from other girls. I think there may be something wrong with that scholar, so sister-in-law, why don't you check it out?"

Seeing the gloomy expression on her sister-in-law's face, Shu Xiaoxiao immediately added: "Of course, it may be that I saw it wrongly. Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart. I won't say anything outside."

After all, she is her sister-in-law's biological sister. If her sister-in-law doesn't believe it, she will pretend not to see it. Anyway, she has a clear conscience.

Seeing her sister-in-law eager to explain, Zhou Wenxiu knew that she had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "No, I know you are kind, Xiaoxiao. No matter what, thank you. I know that if it weren't for me, you would definitely not take these to heart. Xiaoxiao, I will remember your kindness in my heart, and I will definitely check it out."

Zhou Wenxiu was also a smart person. She had never heard about her sister-in-law going to Yunguang Temple for such a long time, which meant that she had no intention of interfering in other people's business. It was only today that she saw that her sister-in-law knew her second sister, so she came to remind her for her sake. She had to appreciate this favor.

Her mother had told her before that her second sister was sometimes in a bad mood, but she thought it was because of the time they had been together. It was normal for a girl to be a little different from usual as she was in love. Now it seemed that something might have really happened.

But how could my sister, a lady who lives in seclusion, know a man outside the family? There must be something going on and we must investigate it thoroughly.

Seeing that her sister-in-law had listened to her, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly retreated, mission completed, and went back to sleep.

Zhou Wenxiu affectionately sent her sister-in-law away and decided to go back to her parents' home tomorrow to discuss things with her mother. If anyone dared to plot against her second sister, she must be prepared for their revenge.

And there is the sister-in-law. If the story is true, their family should thank the sister-in-law very much.

Kunning Palace

The queen looked at her handsome son and asked excitedly, "Are you really going to stay in Kyoto?"

The queen has always supported her son's behavior. She knows that her son has been smart since childhood, and is good at both civil and military affairs. However, he has seen too much intrigue and conspiracy, and began to yearn for the outside world.

The queen has always known that the palace is a huge cage, but she is the mother of the world and her son is the legitimate son of the empress. Other princes have the right not to participate in that position, but they have only this one choice, they have to fight for it, otherwise what awaits them is eternal damnation.
