One touch and one silence

Chapter 508 Investigation

"Please!"

Nanzhi ordered Shuhua to invite the person in quickly.

Yu Xueying and Cuinong walked in slowly. As soon as they came in, they knelt down and bowed respectfully to Nanzhi.

"I've met the prince!"

Nanzhi quickly helped the two of them up and said to Yu Xueying, "Sister Yu, you don't have to be polite. Just treat me the same as before."

Yu Xueying naturally didn't dare to say that. "Your Highness, you are joking. You are a dignified prince, so Xueying naturally wouldn't dare to treat you disrespectfully as before."

Seeing her frightened look, Nanzhi didn't insist and just let her do as she wished.

"Your Majesty, Xueying was saved yesterday thanks to you, otherwise she would have died now!"

"Xueying knows she has no way to repay you, so she made some snacks today and sent them to the prince to try."

Cuinong, who was behind Yu Xueying, held the tray obediently and placed it respectfully in front of Nanzhi.

Nanzhi looked at Cuinong, whose eyes were full of respect, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

She preferred the way they treated her before, but that was how it was in ancient times, and the concept of class was quite strong.

"Thank you, Sister Yu, and Sister Cuinong!"

Cuinong was so scared that she immediately knelt down, her body trembling a little.

"You don't deserve it! You don't deserve it!"

"Your Majesty, just call me by my name!"

Nanzhi gently reached out his hand to help Cuinong up, with a smile on his face.

"Okay! Cuinong!"

After she finished speaking, she picked up the snacks from the tray that Cuinong was holding. They looked cute and small, and quite unique. She reached out and took a piece and put it in her mouth.

The taste immediately astonished Nanzhi, and her eyes lit up.

Isn’t this the same kind of pastry called white peach pastry that she has eaten in modern times?

The similarity is too high! This was her favorite at the time!

Nanzhi praised while eating, "This pastry is so well made!"

"Thank you, Sister Yu, I like it very much!"

Yu Xueying was very happy to see Nanzhi eating happily.

"Then Xueying will make more white velvet cakes for the prince next time!"

Nanzhi knew that this was the girl's way of expressing gratitude, and if it could make her feel better, she would not refuse.

"In that case, I'll trouble Sister Xueying!"

Xueying has achieved her goal, so she won’t stay for long!

"Since the pastries have been delivered, Xueying will go back first!"

"Farewell!"

Nanzhi saw him off to the door and asked the calligraphy and painting to be delivered as well.

It was not until Yu Xueying and the other person walked a long way that his tense body finally relaxed a little.

"Miss! The prince doesn't seem so scary after all!"

“It seems to be no different from before!”

Yu Xueying helplessly reached out and tapped her forehead, "You, you! He's a prince, you can't be so unruly!"

"We are now living under someone else's roof, so we must be more careful. This is not our Yu Mansion!"

Yu Xueying's eyes were filled with longing when she said this. She had never been so far away from home for so long. This was her first time, and it was also the first time she almost lost her life!

No wonder her father would give her careful instructions every time she went out to play, and her mother would constantly give instructions to the servants at home.

Now she truly understood that there were terrible things outside that she could not see.

Thinking about what the prince did yesterday, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

What's more, I don't understand why the prince didn't punish the Zhuo family.

She thought that the prince brought few people that day and did not take any action, but now such a long time has passed and the Zhuo Mansion is still the same.

She took a look at the huge palace and didn't know whether the prince had been deceived or had other plans.

I hope they have other plans! The Zhuo family is so arrogant that they dare to kidnap good girls everywhere. I am afraid they have done this many times.

Moreover, she listened to the housekeeper and the two maids at the beginning, which also proved that she was not the first and would not be the last.

I hope the prince was just deceived, not...

Nanzhi, who was being talked about, was drawing something when Liuyue walked in.

"Your Majesty! They're here!"

Nanzhi looked up with a confused look on his face!

"Who?"

"The people General Yu sent have arrived. They contacted me just now."

"Does the prince have any other instructions?"

Nanzhi pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Let's do as we did before, sneak into Baihua Tower, get closer to the Zhuo family, and see if we can get any substantial evidence."

"If someone's life is in danger, and you can lend a helping hand without alerting the enemy, do it!"

According to what she had seen, there would be one less woman in Baihua Tower every half a month.

There are many people with special hobbies in the world. There is a regular customer in Baihua Tower. Even Zhuo Yichen doesn’t know this person, which shows how mysterious this person is.

However, Zhuo Yichen once suspected that the reason why Nanzhi took the initiative to build a good relationship with the Zhuo family was because he hoped to have the opportunity to meet that person.

That face had already been drawn by Nanzhi on her paper.

"My Lord, who is this?"

Nanzhi was also looking at this person's face and always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Liu Yue, look at this person's face. Doesn't it look a little weird?"

"Look at his eyes, those small eyes as big as green beans. Normally, no one would notice him in a crowd. But when you look at his expression, you can see a kind of shrewdness, and not just ordinary shrewdness." It's more like a sharp, eagle-like look.

Nanzhi's words aroused Liuyue's interest, and her eyes were fixed on the person on Nanzhi's paper.

The picture shows a man in his forties. He clearly has a smile on his face, but there is no trace of smile in his eyes.

There was something wrong with the temples. Liuyue pointed at the Zhenren's temples and asked Nanzhi.

"What is this? Did he already have it? Your Highness didn't draw it wrong?"

Nanzhi glared at Liuyue, "Have you ever seen me make a mistake?"

"I was also wondering why there are scars here, and on both sides."

"Who knocks both sides of the head at the same time? Unless someone hits you?"

"Am I right!"

Liu Yue laughed.

"Master, there is a kind of disguise technique in the martial arts world that can make it very convincing. This person's mask must have some problems, but this person currently has no other solution, so he will continue to maintain it."

"He modified the sides to look like scars. Most people wouldn't care about this! Unless they are someone who knows this business."

"Who is this person?"

Liu Yue looked at Nanzhi and wondered why his master drew this thing?

Nanzhi pointed at the man in the painting and said, "This man is called Liang Hanyuan. Zhuo Yichen is always very respectful to him, but Zhuo Yichen doesn't even know his true identity."

"He just guessed that this person was from the Great Han Dynasty."

“It only appeared in the past two months.”

"And he has a habit. Every time he orders a flower girl in Baihua Tower, the girl dies inexplicably the next day!"

"And this Hua Niang's face is disfigured!"

"Do you think it's strange?"
