Chapter 242 Is there anything else they don’t know?
Hearing this, Shiyue could not help but frown, and raised her voice unconsciously, saying with a hint of reproach: "You have actually sneaked into the prince's mansion! You are really bold."
But Eleven didn't care at all, and responded calmly: "This is not the first time we have done this, don't get so excited."
Shiyue was speechless, took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, then slowly said: "In this case, there is no point in you arresting us." There was a hint of doubt and confusion in her voice.
Eleven's face did not change at all when he heard this. He still looked at Shiyue expressionlessly and asked calmly, "So?"
Shiyue's heart sank, and he secretly wondered what the other party's intentions were.
He didn't understand why they wanted to arrest him and his brothers. If they wanted to obtain information, they had already sneaked into the Tenth Prince's Mansion. What else didn't they know?
So he should take action now, but the other party has not made any move, which makes him very confused.
He raised his head, looked at Eleven with a firm gaze, and said word by word: "Let us go, and I can pretend that nothing happened."
However, Eleven sneered, his eyes revealing a disdainful look, as if he found Shiyue's proposal ridiculous, "This doesn't count."
Shiyue's heart tightened, and she asked with a trembling voice, "So what do you want?"
Eleven's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and his tone was full of helplessness, "Brother, what's the point of you telling me so much? I'm just following orders."
Shiyue was very annoyed and cursed in his heart.
He finally realized that the man in front of him was a stubborn person and no matter how hard he begged or threatened or bribed him, he couldn't get a single word out of him.
Finally, Eleven patted Shiyue on the shoulder and tried to comfort him, saying, "You guys, don't be too nervous. Just live here well for the time being. I promise to provide you with good food and drink. I guarantee that you will live better than before."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the room, closing the door gently.
After hearing what Eleven said, Shi Yue was shocked. It seemed that he was still a match for Di Kuang. From the meaning of his words, it was obvious that he knew what kind of life they had lived in the past.
Shiyue and his companions looked at each other, their faces full of confusion and uneasiness.
Shi Ri was younger and more impatient, so he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Shi Yue, will they keep us locked up here forever?"
Shiyue was silent for a moment and did not answer his question. He was also filled with worries, but at this moment he did not know how to comfort his younger brother.
Another man named Shixing seemed even more angry. He spat fiercely and said with gritted teeth: "If I knew who was plotting against us from behind, I would skin him alive!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, their hearts filled with resentment and anger at the gesture.
Shiyue didn't say anything, but just stared at Shixing with cold eyes, muttering to himself: If that's the case, why didn't you resist in the first place?
He clearly remembered that the first person to lay down his weapon was Shixing!
Not long after, there was another sound of footsteps outside the yard. It turned out that it was Youshi who had returned.
"Sister-in-law?" Shi Ri asked in surprise, "Why are you back again?"
Yu handed the bag in her hand to Shiri, and then said to Shiyue: "It's too late now, and I don't have time to cook for you. You can just eat these buns for now."
Shiyue nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
Yu Shi hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but said, "Don't worry, just stay here, the young master won't do anything to you."
After a moment of silence, Shiyue asked, "Sister-in-law, who is the young master you are talking about?"
Youshi shook her head and replied, "Don't ask any more questions. When the time is right, the young master will come to you naturally."
Shi Yue's mood became heavy, and he realized that this matter might be more complicated than he thought. And what is the identity of this mysterious "young master"?
"But you don't have to worry. The young master is not a bloodthirsty person. As long as you don't cause trouble, there will be no danger." Yu Shi comforted.
After hearing this, Shi Yue nodded, thinking secretly in his heart: It seems that although this young man is mysterious and powerful, he is not the kind of person who kills innocent people.
In this way, the days here for him and his brothers might be relatively safer.
After all, they didn't succeed, and even if they returned, the Tenth Prince would not let them go.
Seeing that he seemed to understand what she meant, Youshi turned around and left with peace of mind.
Shiyue looked at her departing back and fell into deep thought.
At this time, Shi Ri distributed the buns in the bag to other brothers, and finally handed the bag and the remaining two buns in it to Shi Yue.
Shiri said with a smile: "Brother, come and eat it, it's hot and delicious, and it's meat!"
As he said this, he couldn't wait to take a bite of the bun in his hand, with a satisfied look in his eyes.
Shiyue couldn't help feeling sad when she saw how happy her brother was.
He sighed helplessly, and secretly felt in his heart: As the personal guards of the Tenth Prince, they not only have to be on guard against attacks from assassins at all times, but also have to be on guard against plots by their own master.
Thinking of this, Shiyue remembered the incident in which the Tenth Prince withheld food from her before, and her mood became even heavier.
Their lives are even worse than those of beggars, and now being able to eat such delicious buns is really a rare enjoyment.
Not only that, even the quilts they used for sleeping were brand new and had been dried in the sun, making them warm to sleep on, completely different from the damp quilts they usually used.
That night, Shiyue finally felt unprecedented comfort and warmth.
The next morning, when Shiyue woke up, the sun had risen high and was shining through the window.
He stretched and yawned. He slept so soundly last night that he didn't wake up until noon.
Shiyue felt bitter in her heart. She didn't expect that being full and satisfied would feel like this.
He suddenly had a ridiculous idea: it would be nice if it could always be like this.
Shiyue opened the window. The weather was still a little cold in January, but today the sun was shining brightly, it was a sunny day, and Shiyue felt warm all over.
"Squeak", the courtyard gate opened, and Youshi came in with a food box again.
"You're awake now," Youshi said with a smile, "When I came just now, I saw you were still sleeping, so I didn't call you."
There was a rare hint of shyness on Shiyue's face. He hadn't noticed that Youshi had come before. Could it be that he was living too comfortably now?
This time, Youshi put the food box in Shiyue's hand and said, "The chain should allow you to get to the well, fetch water to wash your face and eat."
After giving the instructions, You left.
