Chapter 298 - 298 Seeing Is Better Than Hearing Everything



The sky outside the window was bright, and the man beside her was long gone.

She stretched lazily. It felt so good to have a good sleep!

Beside the bed was a brand-new dress.

!!

Yu Niaoniao picked it up and held it against herself. The size and length were just right.

She put on her clothes and turned around in the mirror.

The top was a short red jacket and the bottom was an apricot-colored pleated skirt. The skirt was embroidered with red plum blossoms. Coupled with a scarf made of white rabbit fur, it looked especially festive.

Yu Niaoniao was very satisfied with this outfit.

She combed her hair into a simple and unique bun. She specially picked two golden hairpins embedded with red coral stones and inserted them into her bun.

There was a knock on the door.

Knock knock.

Yu Niaoniao turned around. “Who is it?”

“That’s me.”

It was Little Lo’s voice! Yu Niaoniao immediately stood up and walked over to open the door.

Lo Pingsha stood outside the door with a cup of hot water. “I’m here to bring you hot water.”

Yu Niaoniao turned to let him into the room.

Lo Pingsha poured water into the washbasin.

Yu Niaoniao rolled up her sleeves and asked as she washed up.

“Where’s Duke Lang?”

Lo Pingsha hesitated for a moment before deciding to answer truthfully.

“This morning, the emperor ordered the Sky Wolf Guards to assist the Justice Department in investigating the case. The deputy general of the Sky Wolf Guards, Wei Liao, has already arrived at the Justice Department. He said that he wants to interrogate the relevant personnel involved. Duke Lang is talking to him now.”

Yu Niaoniao stopped washing her face. “Sky Wolf Guards?”

When she first returned to the Jade Capital, she had heard Xiao Juan mention the Sky Wolf Guards, but she had never seen them.

After a period of time, she had almost forgotten about the Sky Wolf Guards. She did not expect them to suddenly appear.

Lo Pingsha was afraid that she would think too much, so he took the initiative to comfort her.

“Although the Sky Wolf Guards are here, the lead on the case is still in our hands. We still have to listen to Duke Lang in the end.”

Yu Niaoniao replied, “Yes, I know.”

She continued to wash her face, but she was a little worried. The Emperor had set up the Sky Wolf Guards to restrain the Justice Department. Now, he even asked the Sky Wolf Guards to interfere in the Justice Department’s case. It was very likely that he wanted to divide the power of the Justice Department.

This was not a good sign.

Pan Dafu ran over with a heavy food box.

“Teacher, I’m here to bring you breakfast!”

Yu Niaoniao was very surprised. “Aren’t you on holiday to celebrate the new year at home? Why are you back?”

Pan Dafu chuckled.

“I know you have to stay in the Justice Department for this period of time. I was worried that you wouldn’t eat well, so I especially returned to the Justice Department in advance. In the future, I’ll cover all your three meals a day. I guarantee that you’ll eat comfortably!”

In the end, he did not forget to pat his chest with a confident expression.

Yu Niaoniao said, “What about your family?”

Pan Dafu said proudly, “Don’t worry. I’ve already told my family. When they found out about you, they urged me to hurry over and cook for you!”

His father and grandfather admired the Princess Consort of Lang County’s culinary skills. If not for the fact that the Justice Department did not allow outsiders to enter, his father and grandfather would have followed him to cook for the Princess Consort of Lang County.

Yu Niaoniao was a little touched.

Although she did not officially take Pan Dafu as her disciple, he sincerely regarded her as a teacher.

She took out two red packets from her sleeve and gave one each to Lo Pingsha and Pan Dafu.

Yu Niaoniao said pretentiously.

“Although you’re both older than me, I’m your teacher so I can be considered your elder. This is a red packet from your elder for the new year. You can’t refuse an elder’s gift. You have to accept it.”

Lo Pingsha did not know whether to laugh or cry.

He had never thought that he could get a red packet from someone younger than him.

Pan Dafu was very direct. He accepted the red packet without hesitation and said happily.

“Thank you, Teacher! This is the first red packet you gave me for the New Year. I have to keep it well.”

He kept the red packet in his pocket like it was a treasure and did not forget to remind her.

“Teacher, hurry up and eat. The food won’t taste good when it gets cold.”

Yu Niaoniao sat down at the table. “Have you eaten? If not, sit down and eat with me.”

Lo Pingsha and Pan Dafu both said that they had already eaten.

The two of them were afraid that they would disturb Yu Niaoniao from eating, so they tactfully retreated.

Yu Niaoniao picked up the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the noodles, and ate.

The noodles were very chewy. They were cooked under low heat with chicken soup, and there was a golden fried egg lying on the noodles. In addition, there were two stir-fried dishes and a dessert.

...

There was a little too much food, so Yu Niaoniao could not finish it.

She put down her bowl and chopsticks and saw Meng Xizhou standing outside the door, looking around. She called him in.

“Why are you looking for me?”

Meng Xizhou looked guilty. “Duke Lang and Wei Liao want to interrogate all the people involved in the case. Please go over and cooperate with the investigation now.”

Yu Niaoniao found it strange. She was just cooperating with the investigation. Why did Meng Xizhou have such an expression?

It was not until she was brought to the interrogation room that she understood the reason.

Meng Xizhou was very ashamed. “Wei Liao said that if we want to do things according to the rules, we have to ask questions here. Please don’t be angry. They’re just asking a few questions. With His Highness around, they won’t dare to do anything to you.”

Yu Niaoniao already understood what was going on.

The Sky Wolf Guards knew her identity but still interrogated her in such a place. It was obvious that they wanted to humiliate Xiao Juan.

She straightened her sleeves and walked into the interrogation room.

Yu Niaoniao was very familiar with this place.

...

She used to draw portraits of suspects here.

But it was different today. She had become a suspect in the eyes of others.

Two young men sat behind the table. One of them was Xiao Juan, and the other was Wei Liao, the deputy general of the Sky Wolf Guards.

The Eagle Guards were dressed in deep black, but the Sky Wolf Guards were different. Their clothes were mainly crimson.

In comparison, the Sky Wolf Guards were much more ostentatious.

Wei Liao looked to be in his early twenties. He was wearing a scarlet round-necked brocade robe. His facial features were handsome and fair, and his face was very exquisite. There was always a faint smile on his lips. Coupled with his slightly upturned peach blossom eyes, he looked like a flirtatious man in a drama.

Yu Niaoniao complained in her heart. This person was obviously not a good person!

Wei Liao sized Yu Niaoniao up and asked with a faint smile.

“You’re the woman rumored to want Duke Lang by hook or by crook? It’s really better to see you than to hear about you. You look quite ordinary in person.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Indeed, seeing is better than hearing. I was originally quite curious about what the deputy general of the Sky Wolf Guards looked like. Now, it seems that it’s really disappointing.”

Wei Liao raised an eyebrow. “You have a sharp tongue.”

Yu Niaoniao smiled modestly. “Far inferior to you.”

Wei Liao leaned back and said lazily, “We didn’t summon you here to observe how you talk. Tell us, how did you kill that palace maid?”
