Chapter 189: Difficulty

The sound seemed to come from the windbox, hoarse and dry, and it was uncomfortable to listen to. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Su Jing's brows furrowed after hearing this, and he didn't seem to be getting along with anyone here. It's just that he had to step forward to deal with it, put down the half-eaten pastry in his hand, Su Jing got up and bypassed the carriage to meet the humane.

"It's indeed someone from the Li Mansion, and no one has answered the door just now, so I have to rest here for a while. We were invited by the old princess to enter the palace, and I don't know if we can lead the way. Su Jing said politely.

"Yes, that's fine. After the man finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Please Miss Li come with me." ”

With that, he withdrew one foot that had reached out of the door, and did not seem to want to stay long in this windy alley.

Although Su Jing was very angry, he only hid such emotions in his eyes, in order not to cause more trouble for Li Jin.

"Well, it's just that this carriage is not easy to pass, please tell the people who are going to wait for you. Su Jing looked seriously at the stiff waiter opposite.

Because of the hunched figure, the man's face could only be seen about half clearly, because Su Jing didn't want to arouse the person's vigilance, so he didn't let his observation show too many traces, so he could really see a rough idea.

The face full of wrinkles could not hide the disdain of the hunchbacked waiter at this time, as if Li Jin himself was already a great gift to be able to enter the palace, and he dared to ask the waiter to wait in the palace together, such a good thing.

The answer was self-explanatory, and after a while, it seemed that the waiter had adjusted his tone before he spoke: "This, because the princess didn't order it, so I can't let people in here casually......"

There seemed to be a flame in Su Jing's chest that was burning more and more, and although he had not yet reached the point of losing his mind, his chest was uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Li Jin appeared behind him at this time, she heard the conversation between the two from halfway, and at this time, it was as she expected, she inevitably smiled and shook her head and laughed at herself, I don't know whether to congratulate myself on my earlier instructions, or to sigh that my line of work is not easy, this is already the case at this time, I don't know what it will be like after entering the palace.

"Oh, okay, it's just that this is my attendant, and he does my business, so he wants to enter the mansion with me. Li Jin was very talkative, but he also put forward a condition that seemed to be an exchange.

The man raised his eyes and glanced at Li Jin, who had just spoken to him in front of him, and the little guy next to him who had spoken to him before. The eyes of the dove make people feel that they are more than the cold wind blowing behind them. After the man saw it, he nodded, then turned inward, apparently planning to guide Li Jin and the others. Coming with the wind was his own whispering, and even Li Jin's ears could only hear a small part of the words.

“…… Tsk, I haven't heard of it, and now Miss Qianjin still uses her little maid as a personal attendant...... The way of the world...... Tsk......"

Li Jin knew that it was probably some unbearable gossip, so he didn't pay attention to it. He only turned around and ordered Su Jing to follow, and he went to instruct the family attendants outside the door, and immediately followed.

Su Jing grabbed Li Jin and said with a smile: "How can there be a young lady who does things by herself, you just wait here for a while, we haven't followed, he still has to come back, can he still go to the master like this?" After speaking, he strode out of the door to explain to the people who accompanied him.

The hunchbacked attendant saw that Li Jin and the two did not follow, and sure enough, he turned around and looked at Li Jin angrily on the spot, because there was already some distance between the two, Li Jin felt that the other party probably couldn't hear clearly at this time, so he only smiled apologetically and pointed to the outside of the door to explain.

The man seemed to understand Li Jin's intentions immediately, but he still swept Li Jin with his gloomy eyes before turning around and waiting silently. Li Jin felt that the glance just now seemed to be accusing Li Jin of being unknowing, but he expressed helplessness to Li Jin. Although Li Jin's playful temperament has changed a lot as he gets older, it is still very unkind to see such eyes, and there is a kind of joy that he succeeded in pranking when he was a child.

In the time of half a cup of tea, Su Jing had already ordered the things outside, walked quickly to Li Jin's side, and said, "Okay, let's go." Miss. ”

Li Jin looked at Su Jing with some puzzlement, and asked, "It's just a simple explanation, I have already informed you before, why did you take such a time?

Su Jing showed a kind of betrayal smile, and said slowly: "It's just a rainy day." After that, he didn't say much, just urged Li Jin to keep up with the pace of the person in front of him who seemed to be obviously impatient.

Because of Li Jin's trust, he didn't ask too much, and it was indeed almost noon at this time, which was indeed not a good time to visit, so Li Jin no longer bothered about trivial matters, and put all his energy on the battlefield in front of him and about to arrive.

After passing through a seemingly familiar road, Li Jin remembered that from here on, he had to go to a back garden that was dug by man, which seemed to be the temporary courtyard of the old princess's house.

It's just that the person who led the way in front didn't follow Li Jin's expectation and walked on the familiar path. Instead, he took Li Jin to a right angle, and turned onto a main road that was more spacious and had more attendants.

This place is the same as the last time Li Jin passed, and there are not even familiar buildings in sight. The only thing that could make Li Jin feel that it was still the palace he had been to before was the pavilion standing at the highest point of the entire mansion in the distance, where Li Jin had the privilege of enjoying the scenery alone during his last visit, and then it was there that he reached an alliance with the King of Huaiyang.

Looking at it now, it is still the same as when it was originally viewed from a distance, and the same Wuzi is isolated in a number of mansions, which makes people feel that the height is unbearable. It's just that only when you are immersed in the scene will you know that the scenery above is beautiful and unique that is not found elsewhere.

Based on the angle from which he saw the pavilion at this time, Li Jin judged the location of himself and the others now—probably the northeast position of the entire palace. Gu Li Jin knew that the north was the residence of the head of the family, and at this time, it corresponded to the situation of the Huaiyang Palace, which could only be the residence of the King of Huaiyang who was in the capital at this time, and everyone continued to go deeper in this direction, and at this time, there were no endless attendants around, but the surroundings seemed very deserted.

Wasn't the person who invited herself here this time the old princess? Why did the guide bring him here? And the more he walked, the quieter the surroundings became, making Li Jin feel more and more vigilant.

Although Li Jin was puzzled, he still followed closely quietly.

When he came to the gate of a huge courtyard, the person leading the way in front of him stopped, and when he turned around, he looked at Li Jin with different expectations and slightly excited eyes. But Li Jin didn't understand the meaning of his expression at all, and just watched him quietly from the sidelines. In this way, the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, Su Jing rolled his eyes on the side, and seemed to realize the meaning that the waiter had never said, and was about to point out to Li Jin when he was about to point out a thing or two, but who knew that the waiter was impatient.

The cold eyes showed a look of disappointment and contempt, and then said to Li Jin: "Miss Li, please." This is your destination. ”

At the moment when the look in his eyes changed, Li Jin immediately understood the meaning of the attendant's action, but Li Jin always thought that this was just the rules in the palace, and he really didn't expect that he would encounter this thing even if he was invited, and at this time, it seems that the atmosphere of the princely family is worse than that of the deep palace.

Although Li Jin already knew the squire's plan in his heart, he didn't have the slightest idea of redeeming or letting him get his way. There was still a breezy expression on his face, completely ignoring the emotional changes of the little attendant in front of him.

The hunchbacked attendant saw Li Jin's reaction like this, especially the disdainful look that flashed in his eyes after seeing Li Jin's sudden realization, and he was immediately annoyed and angry, but because Li Jin was still the princess's guest at this time, he couldn't do anything to him, although his resentful eyes were almost full of anger, but he didn't say a word of conflict. There was a stalemate for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, the attendant smiled at Li Jin with a playful expression that he had never shown before. Between such extreme changes, there was no turning point at all, which made Li Jin always feel a cool breeze behind him, and then looking at the smile on the person's face, the feeling of ill will was too obvious.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell Miss Li, Her Royal Highness the Princess ordered that you can only enter this place by yourself, and no retinue you bring with you is allowed to enter with you. ”

This was very unexpected by Li Jin, and he had never heard of any family that was not allowed to bring his attendants, and what he saw in front of him was a real trap. It's just that at this time, Li Jin didn't have the need to meet this childish old princess who had set up many barriers for herself. Although Li Jin was very eager to meet the other owner of the mansion at this time.

"In this case, then please inform Her Royal Highness the Princess, if Her Royal Highness the Princess's inconvenience is not to see it today, after she is comfortable in the coming day, you can post at any time and ask Li Jin to come over to the house. After speaking, Li Jin planned to turn around and leave.

But in the next moment, before Li Jin could turn around and raise his footsteps, the dry voice behind him was yin and yang in a phoenix-like tone, and he said, "Wait, Miss Li." The palace is also the rules of the palace, and it is not that anyone who wants to come can leave first. ”

Li Jin turned around again, raised his eyebrows and looked at the hunchbacked attendant who had a dove in his eyes on the other side, and said, "Oh, then how can I get out of here?"

There was a mocking smile on the corner of the squire's mouth, and he said slowly: "You are a free body, and you are not a prisoner of our palace, so naturally no one can stop you from leaving." It's just that it's taboo for you to say goodbye like this at this time. ”

Li Jin also knew that such behavior would damage the reputation of the Li Mansion, but he was unwilling to throw himself into the net just looking at the obvious cash in front of him. And at this time, his reputation for righteousness is outside, and probably no one will care about his perverse behavior for a while. After thinking about it, Li Jin frowned and said, "If the old princess wants to see me, why should she be so mysterious? Besides, why can't my attendant accompany me? Her Royal Highness the princess is in this courtyard?"

The attendant looked at Li Jin and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess just ordered me to bring you to this courtyard, and I don't know if His Royal Highness will do it again at this time, but I have a sentence here, I don't know whether to say it or not." After the attendant said this, he smiled strangely at Li Jin, and without waiting for Li Jin to answer, he went straight to himself.

"It's not a small matter that you allowed your attendants to light a fire outside the princess's door. Although you will probably only be punished for a crime that is not strictly enforced, those who keep warm will probably not escape the death penalty. I could smell the sweet smell of rice cakes wafting from outside the door, it was really a delicious last full meal, hehehehe......" At the end, the hunchbacked attendant seemed to gloat and couldn't stop laughing.

Li Jin's pupils shrank suddenly, this is a clear threat, but he can't regard this threat as a deaf ear, at this time, if he walks away like this, I am afraid that his behavior will not be punished in any way, but the people in the palace who hold a grudge are afraid that they will do everything possible to retaliate against themselves, and then everything that was originally nothing will be used as an excuse, and the matter of himself and others roasting a fire outside the gate of the palace to keep warm, to say that it is not a big deal, but the power of Huaiyang Wangfu in Beijing at this time, reversing black and white, and it is not a problem to achieve the goal of telling right and wrong。

Li Jin gritted his back molars fiercely, he was really careless, how could he give such an excellent excuse to these tigers and wolves for no reason. The people around him have already suffered a lot with him, and his life is hanging by a thread at this time. Li Jin was angry in his heart, and he was also extremely disappointed in himself, but at this time, he had no power to return to heaven.

After thinking of this, Li Jin's feet seemed to have taken root, and he was firmly rooted in place and couldn't move. The hands hidden in the sleeves clenched and loosened, and after repeating it several times, Li Jin finally calmed down and breathed.

"Okay, I'll just wait in this courtyard, right?" Li Jin looked at the attendant in front of him with a serious smile on his face at this time.

"Your Highness only ordered me to bring you here and invite you into the courtyard, and I don't know what happened after that. Whether you want to go in or not is up to you. After finishing speaking, he stopped Li Jin, turned around and returned the way he came.

Looking at the back that was gradually moving away, Li Jin only felt a chill in his heart, as if the sudden cold wind in the alley before had blown into his heart like this.

If everything is the trick of this little attendant, Li Jin is not so naïve, at this time, he was brought to the alley from the front door, and was hung in the alley with a cold wind, and at this time the courtyard behind him was inaccessible, all of this is so interlocking, no matter how you think about it, someone is inviting you into the urn.

Turning to look at the dark courtyard gate behind him, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Jin's mouth. I can't hide from what I should do, so I will go to the meeting today, and the Hongmen banquet set up by the old princess of Huaiyang Mansion can be regarded as an eye-opener.
