Chapter 69: The Girl Who Was Robbed (7)
He Yu naturally can't work all the time, but fortunately, because the back garden is deserted, no one comes, and she can be lazy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He Yu released Bian Bian who stayed in the pet space, and after feeding it, she took Bian Bian and began to explore the situation in the other palace. Exploring the general layout of one side, the palace is divided into three parts: left, middle and right, the right is where the concubines and princes lived, the middle is the main hall, and the left is the maid, the kitchen, the training ground, and the back garden.
After He Yu memorized the routes one by one, he decided to go out to investigate tonight when everyone was asleep.
Along the place where no one was, He Yu quickly walked towards the back garden, and Bian Bian, who was originally following behind, had long been retained by the kitchen.
From a distance, He Yu saw a rather graceful figure standing in the back garden, who didn't look like a maid.
She stopped, this back garden has been abandoned for a long time, and no one will come at all on weekdays, even if the concubines want to enjoy the flowers, they will not choose this weed garden.
He Yu waited outside for a while and found that the person was still leaving. She couldn't wait any longer, she didn't know how long the person had been here, but a weeding maid had disappeared for so long, I was afraid that people would be suspicious.
He Yu walked into the garden with his head down, looking around for the sickle, but he didn't seem to see the person. When he found the sickle, he was surprised to find that there was one more person in the garden.
He Yu saw her face and found that it was the noble woman who was sitting in the main seat that day.
He Yu held the scythe and looked at her stupidly.
The visitor frowned, saw the sharp, shiny blade in He Yu's hand, and took a step back to speak without a trace.
"What's your name?"
"The young master hasn't named me yet. He Yu continued to play stupid.
The comer's brows furrowed even deeper, she stared at He Yu, and finally spoke again, "You want to find Xiuxiu, I can help you." ā
He Yu smirked.
"You don't need to pretend to me, every few months someone will come to our palace to make trouble, looking for Xiuxiu. Today my maid told me that there are a few strangely dressed people near the palace, and I think the troublemakers should also come......" The woman sneered, "Although the two of you are very similar, the other does not look like a village girl at all." ā
He Yu laughed, what about her?
As for the group of novices, some people also came to the other palace, He Yu didn't care very much.
"You know, without my help, you would never have been able to find Xiuxiu. The person said sharply, very sure.
He Yu only spoke at this time, "How can I trust you?"
"I do this, naturally there are my reasons, you just need to know that Xiuxiu's departure from the other palace is beneficial to me and you. Why don't we cooperate?"
"What is Xiuxiu's name after she comes here?" He Yu asked.
The person who came smiled, "When the time comes, I will naturally tell you that in ten days, I will hand Xiuxiu into your hands and send the two of you out safely." ā
Ten days?
Their assignment was only one week, and now two days had passed, and she could not wait for ten days.
"Three days at most. He Yu said.
"Seven days. ā
"Two days. ā
āā¦ā¦ Five days. ā
"Hey, hey. He Yu smirked, raised his scythe, and the visitor took a step back.
He Yu said, "I'm going to weed." ā
"Okay, three days will be three days, and wait for my news then. With that, the visitor left in a hurry.
He Yu looked at her distant back, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he bent down to continue weeding.
He Yu only cut a few handfuls of grass, and the little girl in Linlang also came over with a sickle to help, chattering to He Yu about the gossip in the palace.
He Yu listened carefully while mowing the grass, and Linlang said more happily when she saw this, and it was rare to have an audience who would not interject.
"Someone came to our palace today to ask for someone, I and a few sisters went out with weapons, and when they saw us, they immediately turned around and ran away, haha, too timid. There are two big men. There was also a woman, dressed immorally, and with yellow hair, like wilted leaves. I really don't know which village they are from, and I don't know ...... shame at all."
From Linlang's words, He Yu slowly deduced that the three taskers outside the palace should be men in suits, rude men and yellow-haired women.
After Linlang said enough, He Yu slowly spoke, "I saw the crown princess today." ā
Linlang looked confused, "What crown princess?"
"Wasn't the young master the crown prince before? Isn't his wife the crown princess?"
Linlang said with a smile, "The young master doesn't have a wife, and the people in the East Palace are all ordinary concubines and side concubines." ā
"But the person I saw today is different from other concubines, full of luxury. ā
"You're talking about Concubine Yao, she has been with the young master for the longest time, and I heard that she is the daughter of our general. But I don't like her. ā
"How long has she been with the young master?"
"More than 10 years...... I don't know, when I came, she was already the side concubine that the young master Ming Media was marrying. Linlang said.
"Speaking of which, Linlang is also an old-timer, and she has been in the palace for ten years. ā
"Of course!" said Linlang, "for ten years." ā
"Oh, there aren't many people like you who have been here for ten years, right?"
Linlang thought for a while, "Not much, there weren't many people who entered the other palace that year, and then some people left, and now only me, Amber, Yinshan, ...... are left."
He Yu wrote down the names of those people one by one. Although she had an agreement with Concubine Yao, she didn't plan to sit back and wait for the results.
After Linlang poured out her gossip, she gradually became sleepy, stopped weeding, and said goodbye to He Yu. Not long after she left, Lu Ran, who was holding a plate of snacks and a pot of tea, walked slowly and leisurely.
"He Yu, come, bring you benefits. ā
He Yu was also a little thirsty, so he took the tea and drank it, and ate two more pastries, Lu Ran's slender hand covered the dim sum, "What about Bian Bian?"
"In the kitchen, you're giving it a special benefit. ā
Lu Ran flicked his long hair, "How can I feed you too?" By the way, I suddenly remembered that my master asked me to go to the kitchen, and I left first. ā
He Yu looked at her steadily.
Lu Ran smiled and hooked He Yu's chin, "Don't take this kind of look, don't you worry about me?" I won't forget the business, and I'll talk to you at night." ā
He Yu knocked out Lu Ran's hand.
Lu Ran was not annoyed, looked at the back garden except for a small part of the grass, and said with a smile: "He Yu, are you so serious every time you do a task? I'll go first, bye." ā
After Lu Ran left, He Yu continued to weed, for her, when there is no breakthrough, it is often a wise choice to do what she should do and what she can do at the moment.
At dinner time that day, He Yu and Lu Ran met again.
"He Yu, after a day of mowing grass in the back garden, did you find Xiuxiu?" Lu Ran asked, picking out the meat slices in his dish and throwing them to Bian Bian under the table.
"What about you, you have been waiting by your master's side for a day, have you found it?" He Yu asked rhetorically.
Lu Ran's smile froze slightly, "Oh, but I got other news." ā
"Really? Me too. ā
