Ye Haoxuan looked up, "Xiaobai from your house also found her?"
Li Luru didnât answer and instead asked, "Is she really your sister?"
"What do you think?" Ye Haoxuan asked back.
Li Luru pouted, "Sheâs not my sister, how am I supposed to know?"
At this moment, Xiaoyuanzi returned and immediately asked upon entering, "Master, that isnât the young lady, why did you bring her back?"
"Ah? So sheâs really not your young lady?" Li Luru said, "I thought that girl was a bit strange from the start, turns out I wasnât wrong."
Xiaoyuanzi rolled her eyes and said, "Sheâs obviously not our young lady. From afar, thereâs some resemblance in stature and face, but when you look closely, itâs not her. She doesnât have the grace of our young lady. Wherever our young lady stands, itâs a sight to behold, impossible to ignore. This girl doesnât even come close."
Li Luru thought to herself, not surprising for someone from the Ye Family, even a servant is so composed, clearly knowing thereâs an issue, yet never showing it.
Ye Haoxuan tapped his fingers, "Itâs precisely because sheâs not that Iâm bringing her back."
Whether sheâs his sister, he knows well enough. Initially he wanted to expose her on the spot, but considering heâs always careful in matters, he decided to set it aside for now.
Li Luru said, "I was going to say the same, when you two stand together, thereâs no familial feeling at all."
Ye Haoxuan looked over, his gaze lingered on her face before shifting to the bird in her arms, "It seems your dumb bird isnât very reliable, making a mistake in finding people."
"Stop talking nonsense!" As soon as her bird was mentioned, Li Luru got upset, "When has my bird ever gotten someone wrong?"
Not only was she unhappy, even the bird in her arms chirped, as if displeased.
"Didnât it make a mistake this time?"
"Nonsense!" Li Luru comforted her Xiaobai while saying, "It was the County Magistrate who found the person, whatâs it to do with my Xiaobai?"
"Didnât it return saying it found someone?" He thought the bird returning at the same time as the County Magistrate from Henghe County meant the bird had found the person, and it matched with what the County Magistrate found.
Li Luru patted Xiaobaiâs head, "It came back just to guide us."
"So it really found someone?"
"Not clear if it found anyone yet, but thereâs definitely a lead, following it will definitely not go wrong."
Seeing her so confident, Ye Haoxuan nodded, "Weâll discuss it after this matter is resolved." He wouldnât overlook any possibility of finding his sister, trusting even a bird didnât seem too far-fetched now.
County Magistrate Zhong and the Situ Family are distant relatives, he thinks County Magistrate Zhong would definitely report to the Situ Family if he found someone. Empress Situ has also tried to win over the Ye Family over the years. If the Situ Family knows about this, theyâd definitely send someone, and it would be clear that this girl is not Yueyue, because anyone whoâs seen Yueyue would know the difference between the two.
But knowing sheâs not Yueyue, why send her to him with ulterior motives? Arenât they afraid of offending the Ye Family?
This matter certainly needs thorough investigation.
In the evening, Ye Haoxuan took "Ye Rongyue" and Li Luru and others to the Tingfeng Pavilion.
Besides Zhong Yongqian, other petty officials and merchants from Heng River were present.
Not only that, these people even had girls serving them, which made Ye Haoxuanâs eyes flash with displeasure.
"This humble official greets the prince!"
