One touch and one silence

As soon as Nanzhi and others walked to the door, they saw that the Seventh Prince's Mansion was surrounded by people.

Nanzhi and others were a little curious about what was going on.

Shuyue ran the fastest. As soon as the carriage stopped, she jumped off and hurried to the door. She pushed through the crowd and saw two people leading two pigs at the gate of the Seventh Prince's Mansion, being stopped from entering.

One was covered in dirt, and the other was in tatters and extremely dirty, with his hair and clothes covered in mud.

When Sanqi saw that it was Shuyue, he immediately called out.

"Shuyue! It's me, your third brother. Hurry and ask them to let us in."

Sanqi looked embarrassed and secretive.

Shuyue's face was full of questions. What third brother? Where did her third brother come from?

Liu Yue behind him saw his subordinates at a glance, and the expression on his face suddenly cracked.

"Let them in!"

The gatekeeper was very respectful to Liu Yue and let the people in immediately. The two men also took the initiative to step forward to help them pull the two pigs in. The pigs were really big and strong.

After entering the door, Liu Yue said something in Nanzhi's ear.

"Your Highness, it's Sanqi and Shuqi."

Nanzhi almost dropped her jaw in shock.

"How did they become like this?" They were even worse than beggars, especially Shuqi.

Liu Yue instructed Sanqi Shuqi, "Go wash yourself and come back to talk to me."

Sanqi had a lot to say, but she had no choice but to go back and wash up. The others were very smart and controlled the pig.

Nanzhi sat in the warm room waiting, she was also curious.

Half an hour later, the two of them entered the warm room, one in front and one behind.

When Shuqi saw the Seventh Prince, she was in tears, knelt on the ground, crawled in front of Nanzhi, stretched out her hands to hug Nanzhi's thighs, but when she thought of the smell on her body, she took a few steps back.

“Your Highness! I am finally back! Wuwuwuwuwu… my journey has been so difficult.”

Forehead!

Nanzhi felt a little embarrassed. Looking at the crying Shuqi, she didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only wink at Shuhua and Shuyue frantically.

Shuhua Shuyue stepped forward, helped Shuqi up, and let him sit on the chair.

Sanqi also stood up. Shuqi was crying and couldn't say a word. Sanqi had to speak for herself.

"Master, this subordinate has a very difficult time. The two pigs are so strong that I can't control them. Eunuch Shuqi is so pitiful. He has no money and no one. He brought two pigs to Beijing alone. I really admire him. I almost went crazy after carrying them for a whole day."

"Master, why didn't you give this eunuch any money? The poor eunuch had to release the pigs as he walked along the way to bring them in. If I hadn't wanted to take a shortcut and walk through the mountain, I probably wouldn't have run into him."

Nanzhi then remembered that she left in a hurry and did not give the eunuch any money.

She looked at the others, and found that Shuhua and Shuyue also lowered their heads in shame.

Nanzhi was speechless for a moment, look at how this thing was done.

"That Shuqi is my fault. I was in such a hurry when I left that I forgot about it. Shuhua quickly gave Shuqi two hundred taels and told him to keep it with him in case of emergency."

"You've worked hard along the way. Shuhua and Shuyue, quickly clean up a room for Shuqi. You can have a good rest for a few days. When the New Year comes, we will kill the pig and give you meat to eat and help you get revenge."

Shuqi was taken away by Shuhua Shuyue, and Nanzhi then held his forehead with his hand.

Look what she has done!

She was a little confused. After this period of time, Nanzhi felt that she had to allocate the work properly to avoid chaos.

"Mammy, we still need you two to look at how to allocate tasks for the Seventh Prince's Mansion. The Prince's Mansion should not be in a mess, so as to avoid such a big mistake as this time, which ruined Shuqi's hard work for so long."

"Please both of you give me some daily reminders. If I'm not around, it's the same if you tell Liu Yue about the Prince's Mansion."

Nanzhi didn’t know how Shuqi got through the past six months. She saw that the two pigs were quite fat thanks to her good care.

Nanzhi felt extremely guilty.

In the side courtyard, Shuhua and Shuyue quickly cleaned out a room for Shuqi.

"Shuqi, now we don't have to be ordered around anymore. Thank you for your hard work during this period.

"This is fifty taels of silver. When I first returned to the palace, the master said he would give it to you. I had forgotten about it and had no chance to give it to you. Now is the perfect time to give it to you. Take it."

Shuhua also put the fifty taels in his hand into Shuqi's hand.

Shuqi lowered his head, making it impossible to see his expression.

Shuyue thought Shuqi was upset and felt sad because he was left alone outside.

"Shuqi, don't worry, we won't leave you behind next time. In fact, the master has been too busy during this period. You don't know how dangerous the master was. He almost died."

Speaking of this, Shuyue Shuhua's eyes turned red.

"You don't know, our prince has been in a coma for several days, and he has become extremely thin. We have not been in this prince's mansion for long."

"Don't blame the master, she..."

"Look, what did the two sisters say? How could this servant blame the master?"

"Shuqi just came back and was very excited to see his master. He is doing well in Yandang Mountain. The two pigs are very easy to take care of. It's just that they were a little troublesome when they came back. They were disobedient."

Shuqi casually recounted the journey of nearly a month, downplaying it lightly, as if the suffering he had endured along the way was not his own.

If Shuhua and Shuyue had not happened to see him when he came back, they would probably have been tricked by him and gone back.

"You must be hungry, Shuyue, you stay here and talk to him. I'll go make him something delicious."

After saying that, Shuhua left Shuqi's room, and Shuyue told Shuqi what had happened during this period.

On the next day, early in the morning, the nanny went to Yu Jijiu's house with the cloak that Nanzhi mentioned.

Yu Jijiu's wife was checking the accounts. When she heard that the maid from the Seventh Prince's mansion had arrived, she was puzzled and asked someone to invite them in.

As soon as she entered the door, Nanny Fang looked at Madam Yu with a smile on her face.

"Madam, how are you? I am the maid of the Seventh Prince's Mansion. Yesterday, my master got separated from us at Qian'an Temple. She was wearing thin clothes. Thanks to the young lady of Madam's family, she gave the cloak to my prince to keep her warm."

"I came here today to give your young lady a cloak. This cloak was specially given to our prince by the queen. When he went back yesterday, he was thinking about your young lady's kindness and asked me to give it to Miss Yu."

After listening to the nanny's explanation, Mrs. Yu finally understood what was going on.

The smile on her face was much more genuine.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I have always been like this. Your Highness, don't take it to heart. I dare not accept such a precious gift!"

The nanny also understood that these people did not want to get close to the princes.
