Traveling through time and space

"To answer the princess, everyone says business is bad." Butler Su said reluctantly.

"It seems that they are really dishonest. From now on, these two shops will be closed, and all the goods will be cleared out and used for other purposes. We will decide the specific use later." Su Yuanyuan was a little angry.

"Master, how are we going to place the people? The Marquis of Xiaoyong's Mansion doesn't have any other businesses now, and we have nothing to do."

"Are you still worried about having nothing to do?" Su Yuanyuan smiled. "Head Steward, you'll be in charge of all matters in both mansions. Xu Kun, you're a scholar, and you shouldn't be wasting your talent. We'll work out the details after we've taken care of the two shops. We'll make arrangements later." After touring both mansions, Su Yuanyuan had a good idea of ​​her own: not many people, and plenty of empty courtyards.

"Princess, A Yu and the others are back," Dong Mei heard Wan Ning's words and whispered to Su Yuanyuan.

Su Yuanyuan returned to her own courtyard and received this news. According to official sources, the He family's ancestral tomb was located seventy miles away, on a hill called Jiu Lu Ming. They had visited and found a large tomb, guarded by a dedicated guard. But something felt amiss, and the servants were unsure, so they returned to ask the princess for her final decision. "Alright, you'll rest today. We'll depart at midnight. This princess wishes to personally inspect it," Su Yuanyuan instructed, and the two of them withdrew. There are many things to be solved at the moment. The most urgent thing is that Su Yuanyuan wants to sort out all the things in the space. Yue'er has not been idle in the past few years. She has been planting various things to see what there is and what there is not. She has been saying that she will clean up all these years, but she has not been able to do anything. On this day, Su Yuanyuan stayed in her room to sleep. In fact, she was counting the materials in the space. The result was that she was very happy, super happy. There were more things than she had imagined, which could make her invincible. Simply put, with the blessing of space, she can unify the world. At dinner time, Su Yuanyuan asked Dongmei to quietly inform Yulin that at three quarters past ten, they should drive the carriage to the back door and leave the city before the city gate is closed.

"Princess, you will be entering the palace tomorrow."

"Madam Shang, what are you doing in the palace?"

"Princess, you really forgot. The Emperor will hold a banquet tomorrow to confirm the selection of the Empress. Princess must attend."

"I was so busy that I forgot everything." Su Yuanyuan remembered this and said, "No, this matter cannot be delayed. The princess must be back on time tomorrow."

"Princess, I have something to tell you. I'm watching..."

"Okay, Nanny Shang, let's talk about it tomorrow. You guys prepare the clothes and accessories that this princess will wear tomorrow. Dongmei, you don't have to follow me. Is Xiao Maozi back?" Su Yuanyuan asked. Dongmei and the others shook their heads. Su Yuanyuan was a little worried, not knowing what happened to those two people.

"Princess, Xiao Maozi is back. He went back to his room to wash up and then came to see you." Chunmei came in.

"Dongmei, find some neat clothes and come out." Su Yuanyuan sat down in the small living room. "Little Maozi is here, let him come in directly."

"Your servant greets the princess." The little Russian appeared at the door.

"Come in and talk." The people in the room left on their own accord, leaving only the two of them. "Are Shuanzi and that guy awake?"

"To reply to the princess, Shuanzi has woken up."

"Is that person awake? Who is he? Which palace is he from? What's his name? Why was he thrown into the underground palace with them?"

"Princess, Shuanzi is awake, but that man is still asleep. Imperial Physician Wu said his injuries are much more serious than Shuanzi's, and he may not survive. But I asked Shuanzi why he allowed Qin'an Palace to be beaten like this, but Shuanzi didn't dare to say."

"Dongmei, have Yulin guard the back door immediately, and have Ayu..." Su Yuanyuan had just finished speaking when Ayu appeared before her. "Didn't I tell you to get some rest?"

"My duty is to protect the princess's safety."

"This princess is in her own house and won't be in any danger. You two might as well come with me." A Yu nodded in agreement. When the carriage arrived at Wujin East Street, it was already two quarters past ten in the evening. She looked at the lanterns lit at the gates of the courtyards on both sides and made sure that no one was paying attention to this side. Xiao Maozi knocked on the door and someone opened it from the inside. A group of people came in one after another, and an old man saluted everyone.

"Who?" A young man rushed up.

"Kuizi, our princess is here." Xiao Maozi and the other four immediately stepped forward to stop her. "Princess, this is Imperial Physician Wu's man, his name is Kuizi."

"Greetings, Princess." He knelt down to greet.

"Stand up and talk. Where are they? Have you given them anything to eat?"

"Don't worry, Princess. Zhuo Bo just made chicken soup."

"Okay, thank you. Take me to meet them." Su Yuanyuan nodded and stood at the door. A Yu and A Luan disappeared from her sight with a whoosh. Xiao Maozi pushed open the door and Su Yuanyuan followed them into the room. There were two beds in the room, but there was no smell of blood. There was a person lying on each bed.

"Princess, I have changed their clothes. Shuanzi, our princess is here." Xiao Maozi came forward and put another pillow under Shuanzi's pillow for Shuanzi to lean on.

"Slave, I greet the princess. I am injured and cannot kneel down to pay my respects to her. I thank you for saving my life."

"Shuanzi, because you are Xiaomaozi's friend, I helped him because Xiaomaozi asked me to help. You should count half of this life-saving favor on Xiaomaozi." Su Yuanyuan joked.

"My life was saved by the princess and the Russians." The people on the boat wanted to look up.

"Rest well, and pay your respects to this princess when you are well again. Heal your wounds first, and then make plans for the future."

"Princess, I am willing to follow you and work for you wholeheartedly in the future, but Qin'an Palace will not let me live." The people on the boat were a little anxious.

"Don't worry, this princess won't leak the news." Su Yuanyuan wanted to ask why Qin'an Palace wanted him dead, but after thinking about it carefully, she decided not to bring it up first and let him decide whether to tell it or not.

"I heard something I shouldn't have heard, and that's why Concubine An wants to kill me." It seemed that he still had some difficulty speaking.

"Okay, I understand. Since you survived, I'll take good care of you. If you have anything to say, we can talk after you get better."

"Princess, he's awake." The little Russian suddenly pointed at the person next to him.

"Shuanzi, get some rest first," Su Yuanyuan turned and faced the man. "Who are you? What's your name? Why did you end up like him?" Time stood still for two or three minutes. His face, straight and honest, was etched with pain, a look that suggested he was still in agony. "If you don't want to talk, then don't. Get some rest. We'll talk when you're better." Su Yuanyuan stood up.

"My name is Yang Xi. Are you Princess Anle? I would like to thank you for saving my life."

"Yes, I am Princess Anle. Saving you was just a coincidence. Don't worry about it. Once you are well, you can leave on your own."

"Princess, I can't let anyone know that I'm still alive, otherwise it will bring disaster to my family." The person on the bed struggled to get up.

"Okay, you shouldn't get too excited right now. Take care of yourself here first. I saved you, so consider it a good omen. Don't feel any burden. We can talk about it later when you've decided where to go." Su Yuanyuan could tell he had a big secret, but she wasn't in a rush to find out. She'd tell him when he wanted to. "Kuizi, thank you for taking good care of them these days. Once we find a new place to stay, I'll have Xiao Maozi move them. Doctor Wu, you're here." As they were talking, they saw Doctor Wu come in. "Are there any unusual movements in the palace?" Su Yuanyuan was worried.

Doctor Wu thought about it and said, "Nothing unusual has happened. There will be a palace banquet tomorrow, and the palace is very lively today."

"This is the ginseng that the princess promised to give to Imperial Physician Wu. These two are for these two to nourish their bodies," Su Yuanyuan took out a box with four ginseng roots in it.

"Princess, I feel unworthy of this."

"Just accept it. This princess keeps her word. Take good care of them."

"Don't worry, Princess. This place is very safe and no one will find us."

"Okay, little Maozi, you have to go back. You are the eldest eunuch of this princess, and you must accompany this princess to the palace tomorrow." Su Yuanyuan did not speak to the two people anymore and just left. After successfully leaving the city, Su Yuanyuan, sitting in the car, thought about what to do when they arrived at the He family cemetery and where to look for it. They couldn't just wander around aimlessly. "Ayu, Aluan, come in and talk." Su Yuanyuan called them in and asked in detail about the size and location of the tomb. Because it was night, for safety reasons, Su Yuanyuan did not drive too fast. It took two hours to arrive at the place Ayu and the others mentioned. "Yulin, hide the car inside. We don't have long, so we need to drive faster. Of course, we have to drive separately to search the place thoroughly."

"Princess, I will not be separated from you. My mission is to protect you."

Su Yuanyuan saw the light and saw it was the gravekeeper. "Yue'er, sprinkle this around him and let him sleep until tomorrow to avoid any delays." Su Yuanyuan took out a packet of sleeping pills and gave it to Yue'er. Yulin quickly hid the carriage. "Split into two groups and circle around to see if you can see anything. Try not to alarm anyone."

"Aluan, you and Yulin go over there, I'll accompany the princess." Ayu had made a very clear assignment, and Su Yuanyuan had no choice but to do as she said. "Good job, Yue'er, go check for any gaps, that's the best place to find an entrance."

"Princess, where are there any gaps in the burial area? How can this thing just come in and out?" Yu Lin seemed to be disgusted by Su Yuanyuan's words. "Princess, this place looks a bit scary. We should all act together." Yu Lin looked around. It was indeed a bit eerie, but he didn't dare to light the lantern.

Su Yuanyuan remembered the powerful flashlight in her own space. Thinking of this, Su Yuanyuan turned to the side and took out four small flashlights. Afraid that the light would be too strong and would not shine far, she wrapped them in handkerchiefs. Alua had said that when they were scouting the area, they unexpectedly discovered that this place was not far from the village. They each gave them one, but with the handkerchiefs tied around them, they could only see a little distance in front of them. After taking a few steps, she felt Yue'er biting at her clothes.

"Yue'er, did you discover something?" Su Yuanyuan asked in a low voice. Yue'er pulled herself forward, "Follow Yue'er." Su Yuanyuan followed Yue'er around the grave and stopped at the other side. Su Yuanyuan and others squatted down and carefully photographed every inch. Yue'er jumped onto the grave and lifted up a bunch of branches or something, revealing a wooden board. Alua carefully lifted the wooden board, revealing a space.

"Yulin, you stay outside and let's go in and take a look."

"No, I want to go with you. I am a man and I am brave." The boy refused.

"Whoever of you is willing to stay, there must be someone watching outside, so that we can report it if someone comes. Anyway, this princess will not stay. Put these on your feet," Su Yuanyuan took shoe covers from the space to avoid leaving any traces.

"I won't stay either. If there's a hidden formation or something like that, I can protect the princess from it," Ayu said firmly. "Aluan, you stay. If anyone comes, blow the horn to warn them." This was undeniable.

"Yes, I obey your command," he replied unwillingly.
