Chapter 245 Encounter with Xiao Sirou
He felt nothing but resentment towards this father.
He had wondered more than once if Yu Pengze would come back to him if he ever made something of himself.
And it actually happened.
Yu Jiashu sneered inwardly.
Ha, you ruined me and my mother like that, and now that I'm successful, you're all jumping on my bandwagon.
Yu Pengze, don't you think you're ridiculous?
However, Yu Jiashu has never given up the idea of revenge since he was a child.
He wanted Yu Pengze to pay the price he deserved.
However, going straight back would easily arouse suspicion.
Yu Jiashu refused twice, and it was only when Yu Pengze came to him for the third time that he agreed to return to the Yu family.
-----------------
When King Zhao came to the capital to report on his duties, he brought Xiao Sirou with him.
King Zhao cherished this daughter and, fearing she would feel stifled at home, took her everywhere he went.
One day, Xiao Sirou went out shopping and accidentally got separated from her maid and guards, which made her a little anxious.
Walking through a small alley, where there were few people, Xiao Sirou felt a little scared, worried that she might encounter something bad.
So they quickened their pace.
As a result, what you fear most is what happens most often.
Several thugs stopped her; they looked like they had been drinking, their eyes glazed over as they looked at her.
Xiao Sirou was terrified. What were these people going to do?
"What do you want to do?" Xiao Sirou asked loudly, her voice carrying a hint of authority.
She is now the daughter of King Zhao.
Under King Zhao's favor, she became much more confident and was no longer the timid little maid she used to be.
Her every move exudes the air of a noblewoman.
The thug was slightly surprised by her shout, not expecting that this seemingly gentle and weak woman would have such a spirited side.
However, the group was clearly drunk and, under the influence of alcohol, were not acting rationally.
The leader leered at Xiao Sirou: "Little girl, it's so boring being alone, why don't you keep me company?"
Xiao Sirou shouted, "How dare you!"
She surveyed the terrain; the road was blocked, and no one was passing by, so she couldn't easily ask for help.
Now I'm stuck in the alley, and I really don't know how to get out.
The leader staggered forward, trying to touch Xiao Sirou's face.
Xiao Sirou slapped him across the face.
The man covered his face, looking furious and embarrassed. Just as he was about to retaliate, his arm was grabbed.
Xiao Sirou looked at the man who suddenly appeared behind her. The man was handsome and talented, with deep eyes. He seemed very reserved, but he was also very heroic.
The scene of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress actually played out in her life, and Xiao Sirou couldn't help but blush.
Yu Jiashu knows kung fu. He dreams of joining the army and practices martial arts to stay healthy.
They easily beat the thugs to the ground.
Seeing that things were not going well, the thugs ran away.
Yu Jiashu turned around and asked Xiao Sirou how she was and if she was injured.
Xiao Sirou looked at Yu Jiashu, her face flushed.
Yu Jiashu hadn't paid attention to the girl's appearance before, but now that the thugs were gone, he saw her face to face and found her to be very beautiful, especially with a shy look on her face, which made her even more adorable.
Xiao Sirou: "Young master, I'm alright. Thank you for saving me."
"May I ask your name, young master? I will certainly repay your kindness," Xiao Sirou continued.
"My name is Yu Jiashu," Yu Jiashu replied. He was about to ask the girl's name when several people rushed over.
A maidservant, followed by several guards.
"Princess, I've finally found you!" The maid rushed over, checking Xiao Sirou for injuries, tears welling up in her eyes.
If His Highness Prince Zhao finds out that he has lost the princess again, he will skin them alive!
The guards also looked shaken.
Yu Jiashu was slightly taken aback.
county lord?
King Zhao came to the capital to report on his duties. Could this person be King Zhao's daughter?
"So you are the princess. I was rude." Yu Jiashu quickly bowed to Xiao Sirou.
Xiao Sirou said, "Young master, there's no need for such formalities."
He then turned to the maid and said, "I did encounter some lecherous men just now, but thanks to this young master's help, I escaped a disaster."
The maid was filled with lingering fear.
He kept thanking the young master.
"May I ask what you do for a living, young master?" Xiao Sirou asked.
Yu Jiashu replied, "I hold the position of Principal Clerk in the Ministry of War."
Xiao Sirou was surprised.
Unexpectedly, this young man, who looks so young, is actually a principal officer in the Ministry of War.
I remembered my father saying that the third-ranked scholar in this year's imperial examination is now working in the Ministry of War and his surname is Yu.
Could this be the person standing before me?
"Is Lord Yu the third-ranked scholar in this year's imperial examination?" Xiao Sirou asked.
“Exactly,” Yu Jiashu replied.
Xiao Sirou's face turned even redder.
This person is so young, yet he has already become an official, and he is also so talented that he passed the imperial examination as a third-place scholar.
She has always held learned people in high regard.
Yu Jiashu felt a little embarrassed as he noticed the princess's gaze.
"When I return, I will tell my father that I will make sure he repays you properly," Xiao Sirou said with a smile.
Looking at Xiao Sirou's smiling face, Yu Jiashu thought it was extremely beautiful and couldn't help but stare at it for a while.
"It's nothing, Princess, you don't need to worry about it," Yu Jiashu said.
But I was already looking forward to it.
He hoped to have more opportunities to meet with Xiao Sirou.
Xiao Sirou returned to Prince Zhao's residence in the capital.
King Zhao also returned, and she hurried to him.
King Zhao was in a good mood when he saw his daughter. He spoke with Xiao Sirou and asked her if she had a good time shopping today.
Xiao Sirou said, "Today, it's all my daughter's fault for being playful and getting separated from them."
She still had to speak up and introduce Yu Jiashu to her father.
King Zhao listened to his daughter's words and glanced at the maid, who lowered her head guiltily.
Xiao Sirou is fine and is here perfectly well; otherwise, the maid would definitely be punished.
"Later, she encountered some bad guys who tried to harass her," Xiao Sirou said.
"What!" King Zhao slammed his hand on the table, and the maid beside him trembled.
"How can you leave the princess alone!" King Zhao shouted.
He didn't want his daughter to get lost again.
The maidservant hurriedly knelt down, not daring to utter a single word.
“Father, please calm down,” Xiao Sirou smiled. “Actually, I just felt it was boring to be with them, so I went for a walk by myself.”
Xiao Sirou lied; she just didn't want her father to blame her maids and guards.
She herself had worked as a servant, so she knew how difficult it was to be one.
Therefore, she was always very kind to her servants.
"If Father wants to punish someone, then punish your daughter," Xiao Sirou said, a smile playing on her lips, showing no sign of wanting to be punished.
She knew that her father couldn't bear to punish her.
The maid looked at Xiao Sirou gratefully, thinking to herself that the princess was so kind. She must repay the princess properly and never lose her again.
"And then what happened? What happened next?" King Zhao asked hastily.
