Chapter 118 Confiscation of property and exile 11
After a hearty meal, Zhu Yue took Bai Lu out. She had forgotten the existence of the veil, and Bai Lu also didn't remember about it.
The truth is that they seldom go out and are not used to wearing veils at all.
When they walked downstairs, they realized something was wrong.
At this time, the lobby on the first floor was no longer noisy and bustling as before, but was as quiet as death.
Everyone was kneeling on the ground, the only man standing was wearing a smoky blue brocade robe, he was tall and straight, handsome and graceful. What was rare was that he didn't look overbearing, but his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, as if he was smiling all the time.
The eunuch kneeling behind the man glared at the two and scolded, "How dare you not greet the Second Prince? Kneel down now."
The egret was startled and knelt down immediately.
Then he quickly realized that the lady next to him showed no sign of kneeling down.
The second prince was also looking at the woman who had no awe at all. He raised his thick eyebrows and became interested.
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
Disrespecting the royal family is a serious crime. The entire Zhu family will be implicated again and will really fall into the abyss.
The woman in front of me was dressed very simply, in a neat white dress, with long hair tied up with a ribbon, without makeup, and without hairpins or jewelry, but her beauty seemed not to be affected by these external things. It was not the kind of aggressive beauty, but a gentle and stunning one. Standing in the lobby, she still had a sense of otherworldliness.
Zhu Yue was also in a dilemma at this time. If it wasn't the Second Prince, if it was any other prince, he would just leave without kneeling. What would he be afraid of? According to modern people's thinking, she didn't ask anything of these people, so why should she kneel?
And they had no ability to threaten her.
The only hesitation was that he thought of the two mission targets, Zhu Wan and Zhu Yin. The second prince might be Zhu Yin's future supporter, and he couldn't let anyone else solve the problem.
Zhu Yue thought about it and only thought of one way to deal with the current situation.
She said calmly: "Your Highness, I am an outsider and I will not kneel before anyone."
I am a Taoist priest, I don't kneel to anyone.
Since I've said I'm a Taoist priest, I'm no longer a member of the Zhu family. If you want to cause trouble, come to me.
The second prince Liu Xi understood the subtext.
The man looked down at her, opened his thin lips and snorted coldly. He didn't want to argue with a little girl.
"Walk."
A group of people stood up and followed the Second Prince. Before leaving, Gao the eunuch beside the Second Prince looked at Zhu Yue deeply.
Bai Lu was so frightened that she fell to the ground, trembling and saying, "Miss, you scared me to death. What if His Highness blames me?"
Zhu Yue was also helpless. She really did not feel the slightest fear or respect for these royal family members. Asking her to kneel down to such people... She could only do it if she had lost all her memories and turned into a real ancient girl.
"Okay, it's time for us to go back."
Both the egret and the autumn rain looked like they had survived a disaster.
Bai Lu kept praising the Second Prince, saying that he was tolerant and kind, and that he looked like a wise ruler. Qiu Yu, who was beside him, also praised the Second Prince for his handsomeness, which was rare in the world and was no worse than that of the young lady.
When Qiuyu first met Zhu Yue, he was amazed that there was such a beautiful woman in the world. Today, he saw another one.
Zhu Yue heard this and chuckled: "Huh? You are not on the side of your own lady, but on the side of an outsider."
Bai Lu hurriedly and carefully looked around to make sure that no one in the carriage could hear it, then he breathed a sigh of relief and reminded the young lady: "Young lady, walls have ears. I heard that the royal secret guards are very powerful. They can find out any secret matter they want to know. We should not just brag about it. What if someone hears it?"
Zhu Yue raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised: "Shouldn't the emperor have secret guards, not just the princes?"
That would be a mess.
Qiu Yu also knew this. "Miss, the princes have had two battalions of secret guards since they were young. This was allowed by the emperor to protect their safety."
Zhu Yue pondered for a while and said nothing.
She thought of her actions during the house search and the crystal balls sold in the city today. She thought that such trivial matters would not attract the attention of someone at the level of the Second Prince.
But what would they think if there were secret guards watching during the house search and they found that there were no treasures in her room?
Will you continue to follow her in the future?
Zhu Yue asked herself and felt that she had to be on guard.
I have to be more careful next time.
Watching two large boxes of medicinal materials being moved into her room, Zhu Yue also had the medicine-making tools that she had asked someone to prepare ready and sent over.
She then began to make the longevity pills with peace of mind.
Halfway through, I thought about it and opened the red envelope group.
[Quickly Wear Bureau Official Worker]: Captain, you have been reincarnated successfully, please make a bubble.
There was no movement; the monk and the captain were obviously not there.
Then I opened the second group.
[Quickly enter the official team]: Red envelope, waiting to be collected.
[Official Worker in the Quick Travel Bureau]: The meatballs are made from medicinal herbs in the mission world, which are good for nourishing the body.
Zhu Yue thought of the holographic helmet and sword from last time, and felt that this relationship was still worth maintaining.
She took out two exquisite natural crystal balls and handed them over. These crystal balls would cost about two million each in modern times. She also had several hundred crystal balls of this quality.
[Quickly enter the official team]: Red envelope, waiting to be collected.
The two red envelopes successfully attracted two group members.
【Nine-tailed Fox Demon】: Received*2
[Abandoned Desolate Planet Area 17]: Received*2
[Nine-tailed Fox Demon from the Demon World]: This ball is so beautiful, I will put it in my collection.
[Abandoned Wasteland Area 17]: This thing is very expensive here, it's an antique. Formal worker, this ball of yours can buy a hundred holographic helmets.
[Abandoned Desolate Planet Area 17]: Red envelope, waiting to be collected.
[Abandoned Desolate Planet Area 17]: I am dying, and I am giving you the last few dozen helmets.
[Quick-travel official worker]: These things are not as valuable as the holographic helmet in my world. I want the technology behind it more than the helmet. But I definitely can't afford it.
[Abandoned Wasteland Area 17]: Technology is the basis of the upper class's monopoly. It's not a question of how expensive it is, but that it is simply impossible to buy. No one will sell a rooster that can still lay eggs.
[Quickly Go Official Worker]: I hope I can have the opportunity to go to such a world to do quests. I will never be willing to give it up if I don't try.
Zhu Yue really wanted to know what technology the holographic helmet used, and she wanted to learn it.
[Formal Worker of Quick-Pass Bureau]: I wish you a smooth reincarnation!
[Nine-tailed Fox Demon from the Demon World]: I also wish you a smooth reincarnation!
[Nine-tailed Fox Demon from the Demon World]: This skirt is for you. I have too many clothes like this.
[Nine-tailed Fox Demon from the Demon World]: Exclusive red envelope, waiting to be claimed.
The Nine-Tailed Fox now knows what cloning means, and feels very sorry for this group member. But her stuff is not suitable for inorganic people.
And people are really dying.
Zhu Yue received the helmet, put it into the space, and then clicked on the skirt given by the nine-tailed fox.
The skirt was made of some unknown material, and it was very beautiful. Zhu Yue tried it on and felt cool all over, without being stained by dust.
It seems that this is a skirt with automatic dust-cleaning capabilities. Zhu Yue liked it very much and put it into the space.
