Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss

Chapter 28: Finding Situ Yue's Body

Chu Qianyu's main purpose of coming out today was to prepare some common medicines and love potions. Since Leng Qingzhou was unwilling to give them, she would prepare them herself.

Because the pharmacists in the backyard already knew that Chu Qianyu was of extraordinary status and might be acquainted with the sect leader, no one came to disturb them.

Walking to the warehouse at the back where medicinal materials were stored, she began looking for the herbs she needed.

After everything was gathered, they went to the courtyard to grind some of them into powder. Then they mixed them and put them in small porcelain bottles.

So that I can use it when I return to Situ Mansion in two days.

After all this was done, three hours had passed, almost the end of the day, and it was already past lunchtime.

After packing up everything, Chu Qianyu walked towards the lobby of the clinic. Doctor Li was seeing patients at the moment, so he didn't disturb her.

He said to the servant beside him, "Please tell Doctor Li that I'm leaving."

The servant nodded in agreement. Chu Qianyu then walked out of the clinic, but did not get into the sedan chair. Instead, she turned and walked towards the noodle shop not far away. Shuang Ning and Shao Ying followed quickly.

"Miss, aren't you going back?" Shao Ying asked.

"I happen to be hungry too, let's eat first and then go back."

Arriving at the noodle shop, they ordered three bowls of noodles, half a pound of beef, and a few side dishes. Chu Qianyu thought that this should be enough for three people.

Then he said to the two people behind him, "Come. You two sit down too. Let's eat together before going back."

The two knew the sect leader's temper, so they did not push or shove him, but just sat down.

Mo Yinan, who happened to be out on business, turned around and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes sitting in a slightly simple noodle shop, which was out of place with the environment.

Chu Qianyu was thinking about something. She looked up and before she could retract her sharp eyes, she met Mo Yinan's somewhat puzzled eyes. She quickly closed her eyes, and then opened them again, looking at him like a pure little white rabbit.

He seemed a little flustered and quickly stood up. Shao Ying and the other person beside him quickly stood up and supported him.

He bowed slightly towards Mo Yinan.

Somehow, Mo Yinan was about to continue walking forward, but his feet seemed to be out of control and he walked into the noodle shop. Before his brain could react, he had already walked into the noodle shop.

Chu Qianyu looked at him in surprise, never expecting how he got in.

Qingshan was even more surprised and followed his master in.

Chu Qianyu quickly stood up from the table. Her legs were still a little limp, and the skin that was burned yesterday began to ache slightly. Her beautiful eyebrows were about to be twisted into knots.

"Your Majesty? Are you going to dine here too?"

Mo Yinan felt a little embarrassed at this moment, and then he looked around and turned to look at Chu Qianyu and said, "I didn't expect that the eldest daughter of the general's mansion would eat in such a shabby noodle shop. This makes me feel a little strange."

"I just went to Yuexin Hall to study medicine. After finishing the course, I found that it was a little late. It would be past lunch time if I returned home. And because my legs were burned yesterday, I just found a noodle restaurant to have a simple meal."

"Study medicine?"

Chu Qianyu nodded: "My mother is seriously ill. A doctor came to see her these two days. It happened that the doctor from Yue Xin Tang said that I have some talent. So he was willing to take me as his apprentice. I thought that if I learned it, it would be convenient for me to take care of my mother, so I agreed."

Mo Yinan looked at her and suddenly seemed to become interested. Although the person in front of him had completely different personalities from that person, for some reason he could occasionally see a familiar aura in her these two times, just like the look in his eyes that he didn't have time to retract just now.

Then he pulled out a chair beside him and sat down, saying, "Miss Chu, I think the burns you got yesterday haven't healed yet. Please sit down quickly."

Chu Qianyu nodded and said, "Thank you. My leg is indeed seriously injured. The doctor said there may be scars." After she finished speaking, her eyes seemed to turn red.

Shao Ying on the side quickly placed the chairs in place and helped Chu Qianyu sit down.

"After all, Lanye Pavilion is also my property. Miss Chu was injured in Lanye Pavilion, so I should express my condolences. Since it happened today, how about I treat her to a meal as an apology?"

"I dare not." Chu Qianyu lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"The noodles are here!" The waiter brought a tray with the food Chu Qianyu had ordered on it.

Mo Yinan saw the three bowls of noodles and looked at Chu Qianyu with a frown.

As if sensing the questioning gaze, Chu Qianyu quickly explained, "It belongs to me and the two maids next to me."

"You are kind-hearted..."

Suddenly Qingfeng walked in, leaned over and said a few words to Mo Yinan. His face changed instantly. He stood up immediately, as if he had already forgotten about Chu Qianyu. Then he walked out quickly.

The man in blue shirt who was following behind took out a silver ingot and handed it to the boss, saying, "This is for the meal of the three girls."

Soon, several people disappeared.

Chu Qianyu looked at Mo Yinan leaving, her eyes deep, thinking about what Qingfeng had just said. Although he spoke in a low voice close to Mo Yinan's ear.

But it was not difficult for her to hear clearly.

It's interesting that Situ actually spread the news that my body was found. But why is Mo Yinan so anxious?

Maybe they are forcing her to show up. If she doesn't show up, then the next step should be to re-elect a new clan leader. Who will it be?

It seems that some people are getting anxious because I haven't been around for a while.

Thinking of this, Chu Qianyu snorted coldly.

Then he looked at the noodles on the table and said to the two of them, "Sit down and eat." Fortunately, Mo Yinan left, otherwise this meal would have been extremely uncomfortable.

After the two sat down, they finished their meal in no time. Although Chu Qianyu ate quickly, her manners were impeccable.

-

Mo Yinan went directly to Situ Mansion, and after being brought in by servants, several people went directly to the ancestral hall at the back.

There was a coffin inside, and inside lay a person who was completely black and looked like he had been burned. It looked like a woman.

Mo Yinan's breathing became faster unconsciously.

Situ Ming, the second master of the Situ family, stepped forward and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. This is Situ's private matter, and it is inconvenient for others to get involved. Sorry."

After saying this, he prepared to ask his servants to send the person out.

Qingfeng and Qingshan immediately stepped forward to stop the man.

Mo Yinan sneered and looked at Situ Ming and said, "Humph! The Situ clan is inseparable from the royal family. Now the new Situ clan leader has passed away unexpectedly. How did it become a private matter?"

"Then I wonder if the prince has reported this to the emperor?"

"The disappearance of the Situ clan leader has caused a huge disturbance recently. The emperor has already ordered me to investigate the matter thoroughly. Do you think I have the emperor's permission?"

After Mo Yinan finished speaking, he looked at Situ Ming, only to see his eyes slightly evasive. Then he sneered and said, "Why is the Second Elder still blocking us? Is there something fishy going on with the person in the coffin?"

Situ Ming took a step back and motioned for the two to leave. Then he looked at him and said, "Just now I was afraid of disturbing the prince, so I stepped forward to stop them. Some time ago, our new clan leader Situ Yue was poisoned but she didn't listen to the clan members' dissuasion. She insisted on looking for the enemy who killed her parents and siblings, and I don't know why she died in the sea of ​​fire."

"Our people just found it this morning. We have just confirmed that it is Situ Yue without a doubt. If you don't believe me, you can go and take a look."
