Chapter 1174: Finding Out the Truth
"Xiao Ru, go and prepare two sets of eunuch costumes, and leave the palace with me. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Shen Ning spoke.
Xiao Ru's eyes widened in surprise, and then her face was full of excitement.
"Okay, eldest lady, the slave and maid will go immediately, are you going to take the slave and maid out of the palace to play?"
She was as excited as a child, and as soon as she heard that she was out of the palace, she immediately thought of the bustling streets, those countless delicious and fun things.
Shen Ning smiled and pinched her bulging little face.
"Taking you out of the palace to do business, it's not fun. ”
"Are you going to Doctor Zhang's house? Great, the slave can see Xiao Si again, he ignored me yesterday, I have a lot to say to him." Xiao Ru went out in a hurry.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Shen Ning's mouth.
It's Little Four again!
This girl's mouth is full of Xiaosi, does she really like Xiaosi?
She and Xiaoru changed into eunuch uniforms respectively, took the exit from the palace token, and easily walked out of the palace without attracting anyone's attention or suspicion.
Out of the palace gate, she asked passers-by about Li Zhixing's residence, and then took Xiao Rujing to Li Mansion.
"On the orders of the emperor, I came to see Lord Li. ”
When she came to Li Mansion, Shen Ning held her head high, took out a token, and shook it in front of the gatekeeper of Li Mansion.
When the gatekeeper saw Huang Cancan's token, and saw that she and Xiaoru were indeed eunuchs who came out of the palace, how dare he slack off, so he hurriedly smiled and asked them to wait, and he quickly went in to report the trip.
Li Zhixing had just been put back in the house not long ago, and was resting, when he heard that the palace had sent someone to come, and there was a royal token, he was startled, and hurriedly dressed up to greet him.
When he came to the door, he found that there were only two little eunuchs dressed in ordinary eunuch clothes, not the usual faces around the emperor, a heart hanging in his throat fell, but there was still a smile on his face, and he arched his hand at Shen Ning and Xiaoru.
"The two fathers-in-law came to see the official on the order of the emperor?"
Shen Ning raised her eyes and looked at him.
Li Zhixing was wearing a purple-red robe, in his forties, with a dignified appearance, three strands of black long beard under his chin, and he looked like a literati with a strong atmosphere, not like a martial artist with thick shoulders and a round waist.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he was also looking at Shen Ning and the others, muttering a little in his heart.
This tall little eunuch looked a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
"Yes, the emperor sent us, I have something to ask Lord Li. Shen Ning said proudly, and handed the token in his hand in front of Li Zhixing.
Li Zhixing naturally knew that this was a gift from the emperor, and hurriedly said: "Two public kilometers, please, let the lower officials serve tea and entertain guests." ”
He personally led Shen Ning and Xiaoru to the living room, and then served fragrant tea, and after taking a seat, he was not in a hurry to ask questions, but looked at Shen Ning with a smile.
With his many years of experience as an official, he could see early on that Shen Ning was the one who was ordered to pass the word.
As for Xiao Ru, she kept her head down from beginning to end, following behind Shen Ning, like a little eunuch who had never left the palace gate and cowered, but it didn't arouse Li Zhixing's suspicion at all.
"Lord Li, are you Gui Geng this year?" Shen Ning sat down and took a sip of tea before slowly speaking.
Li Zhixing was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Shen Ning's first question to be this.
But he soon regained his composure, and replied:
"Xia Guan is forty and three this year. ”
