"Where's the master? Why isn't he home at this hour?"

"Where have you been this time? I wanted to introduce someone to him! This unreliable old man is really courting death!"

Zhou Sisi and Song Lingyun followed Shu Ruyu out of the carriage and entered the Shangshu Mansion. As soon as Shu Ruyu entered the door, she wanted to call Sun Guohao over so that Zhou Sisi and Song Lingyun could get to know each other. However, she was told that Sun Guohao had not returned since leaving the court. She was so angry that she almost took down the door.

"Aunt Shu, let's get down to business first. It won't be too late to introduce them after Minister Sun comes back!" Song Lingyun was a little anxious to know what was in the two boxes.

"Okay! This old guy is a hopeless case!" Shu Ruyu spat and angrily took the two men to her bedroom.

After waving away the maids and asking them to watch the door outside and not be disturbed by anyone, Shu Ruyu unveiled a portrait of the God of Wealth in her bedroom and pressed an unknown place with her hand, and a large secret compartment appeared.

"Fuck!" Zhou Sisi shouted secretly in her heart!

The stack of banknotes was taller than her height. With her sharp eyes, she immediately saw the amount of the top banknote! Fifty thousand taels! Such a huge stack!

Oh, my God! She is really a poor person!

"Here! You two try it, this is it!"

Shu Ruyu took out a small box and handed it to Zhou Sisi.

"Should I avoid it?" Shu Ruyu also wanted to know what was in there, but she felt that since it was someone else's stuff, it might not be nice to see it, so she thought it would be better for her to avoid it.

"Aunt Shu, you are one of us, there is no need for that. Mother believes in you, and we believe in you too!" Song Lingyun said with a smile.

On the way in the carriage, Song Lingyun told Shu Ruyu about the relationship between himself and his mother, which made Shu Ruyu feel so distressed that she held Song Lingyun's hand and refused to let go. She felt sorry for this girl who looked cold on the outside but was soft on the inside.

"Then you two should hurry up and do it! Xiaoyuan must be getting impatient!" Before Shu Ruyu finished her words, she heard Zhou Sisi's exclamation, because she was quick and had already opened a box.

"Holy crap! I'm rich! Look! This is a treasure map!"

Zhou Sisi opened the small box, and a yellowed piece of paper lay quietly inside. After she opened it carefully, she could clearly see the picture drawn on it, which also had the place name and specific location marked on it.

The other two immediately leaned over and watched carefully.

"I know this address. It's at the border between Dayu and the Northern Dynasty. This place is called Qiangzhou. This mountain range is Wolong Mountain. When we were young, we heard that a dragon descended here, so it was called Wolong Mountain!"

"Is there a treasure hidden in the mountains here? Is it because of this that the Xie family was wiped out? Sister Yi was targeted by someone because of this? Was she killed in the end?"

"Damn it! If I knew who did it, I would kill him!"

Shu Ruyu slammed the table angrily, her eyes full of hatred. When she was young, her mother died early and she was bullied. It was Sister Yi who stood in front of her and told her to be strong. Only when she was strong would she not be bullied.

The two families were neighbors, so they often played together. Later, when they grew up, their relationships completely turned upside down. Shu Ruyu became more and more aggressive, while Xie Zhiyi became more and more gentle.

"Then the two round iron plates in my box are the keys to the treasure!"

Song Lingyun also opened the box. Inside were two round iron plates carved with complex patterns. They were exactly the same size and shape, except for the patterns on them. It seemed that as long as he found the treasure and put the iron plate in according to the pattern, he would be able to unlock the treasure mechanism.

"What should we do now? Should we go look for the treasure? Or should we first look for the real murderer who killed Sister Yi?" Shu Ruyu asked anxiously.

"Aunt Shu, don't worry. I have an idea. We can catch those people in one fell swoop!" Zhou Sisi suddenly had an idea and quickly thought of a good idea.

"What's your idea? Just tell me if you need my help. This is how I contribute to Sister Yi!" Shu Ruyu said sincerely. She really wanted to avenge Xie Zhiyi. If possible, she also wanted to go to Dayu Kingdom and slap Song Zhiyi in the face a few times!

"Let's talk about it after we return to the Yu Mansion. I haven't thought about it yet. It's just an immature idea for now. When I think about it, I will definitely ask you for help if we need it!" Zhou Sisi smiled and handed the box to Song Lingyun, asking her to keep it safe.

"Here, take this. Now that you are in Tianqi, you should eat and drink! Take good care of Xiaoyuan during this period. I think she has become so thin that a gust of wind could blow her away!"

Before Zhou Sisi could react, Shu Ruyu took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into her hands.

"Aunt Shu, we really can't take this. We have money, you should take it back quickly!" Zhou Sisi glanced at the thick banknotes in her hand and swallowed. Although she was not short of money now, these banknotes were really fragrant!

If her grandmother knew that she had returned the hundreds of thousands of silver notes that were forced upon her, she would probably chop her with an axe.

"Don't be polite to me. I have plenty of money, Aunt Shu. Take it and consider it as a gift to you two! I will be angry if you don't accept it!"

"Whenever you are free in the future, come and visit my house. I am usually at home. My two sons are studying in other places and are not at home. Those two annoying mother and daughter don't jump around in front of me anymore. It's quite boring. Come and keep me company when you are free!"

Shu Ruyu stuffed the banknotes into Zhou Sisi's hand without saying a word, and held her hand tightly to prevent her from pushing it around.

"Sisi! Just take it! This is a token of Aunt Shu's love!"

"Aunt Shu, I won't be polite with you, thank you! We will go back now, and we will come back to talk to you when we have discussed what to do!"

Song Lingyun gave Zhou Sisi a look. She knew that Shu Ruyu was kind-hearted and was afraid that they would have no money in Tianqi. If she didn't accept it, Shu Ruyu would definitely feel uncomfortable, because she could really see that Shu Ruyu sincerely wanted to be good to them.

"That's right, that's right, Sisi, just listen to Ayun and don't be polite! Take it well, and come to me for more when you need it!" Shu Ruyu is worthy of being a big boss, his arrogance is simply outrageous.

"Then we'll accept it. Thank you, Aunt Shu. We will definitely take good care of Aunt Xie! Don't worry about that!"

"Aunt Shu, Sister Yun and I want to pay tribute to Queen Xie. Can you take us there when it's convenient for you?"

"If it's not convenient, then we can come back to worship after this is over, it will be the same!"

Song Lingyun looked at Zhou Sisi with gratitude as she spoke. She thought the same thing in her heart, but before she could say it out loud, Zhou Sisi said it first.

"Of course, I wanted to take you there, but I can't do it during the day because I'm afraid others will get suspicious. You wait for me at Yu Mansion tonight and I'll pick you up."

"Take Xiaoyuan with you, the place is a bit remote, so in order not to arouse suspicion from the people behind, I used Sister Yi's nickname, Lin Pianpian! Ah Yun, you should know this name!"

Song Lingyun looked at Shu Ruyu and nodded vigorously. Yes, Xie Zhiyi's mother's surname was Lin, and Pianpian was her nickname. Her mother often said this when she was a child. It was because her nickname was Pianpian that she made up her mind to learn dancing well since she was a child, in order to be more in line with the nickname her mother gave her.

"Okay! Aunt Shu, then we will wait for you at the back door of Yu Mansion at 11 p.m." Zhou Sisi made the decision.

"Okay! I'll take you back now!"

After the three of them made an agreement, Shu Ruyu personally saw them out. As soon as she reached the door, she saw Sun Guohao walking in from the gate with a look of joy on his face, as if he had picked up money.

"Madam, who are these two?" Sun Guohao came over happily after seeing Shu Ruyu. He looked like a big golden retriever, the kind that would wag its tail crazily and wait for its owner to stroke its fur.

A middle-aged man around 40 years old, with a slightly plump figure, a rosy face, and a smug look in his eyes that has not yet disappeared. It seems that he has encountered something happy. His facial features are there, and although he is a little plump now, it can still be seen that he must have looked good when he was young!

"Yu Baichuan is her second uncle, and the one above is her third uncle, do you understand?"

"You reek of alcohol, go wash yourself quickly, it's stinkin'!"

Shu Ruyu gave Sun Guohao a glare in annoyance, and dragged the two men away with one hand each. Zhou Sisi could only nod in time before being dragged away by Shu Ruyu.
