Lin Wan hadn't slept all night, and he was nervous, running around, and he was already exhausted. After sending off Father-in-law Cha, Lin Wan returned to the room, placed his belongings, lay on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

Although he was new to a strange place, Lin Wan slept very peacefully, and when he woke up, it was already sunset.

Lin Wan got dressed, pushed open the door, and walked out of the room. The courtyard was very quiet, except for a small palace maid guarding outside Lin Wanmen, the courtyard was empty.

The little palace maid is about eleven or two years old, not tall, ordinary-looking, white and pure, but very cute. However, although this little palace maid is not very old, she is very calm, well-behaved, and very neat in doing things.

Seeing Lin Wan come out, the little palace maid curtsied her knees and saluted. Without much to say, Lin Wan walked to the small pavilion in the courtyard and sat down, she went to the pantry to bring tea, respectfully placed it in front of Lin Wan, and said in a low voice: "Please Miss Zhou for tea." The voice was not loud or small, just enough for Lin Wan to hear, and it sounded in this quiet courtyard, and it didn't seem abrupt at all.

Lin Wan smiled slightly, picked up the tea bowl, and took a sip gently, the tea flavor was neither strong nor light, and the temperature was just right to eat, which made Lin Wan very satisfied, and couldn't help but look sideways at the little palace maid, and asked softly, "What's your name?"

The little palace maid bowed her knees slightly to Lin Wan, and replied softly: "The slave maid Qiu Ming was specially arranged by Father-in-law Cha to serve the girl, if the girl needs anything, just ask." ”

Lin Wan nodded slightly, smiled faintly, and asked again, "Can you talk to me casually?"

Qiu Ming was stunned, and didn't seem to expect that Lin Wan would make such a request. However, she didn't hesitate too much, and nodded in response: "Of course, I don't know what the girl wants to know?"

Lin Wan hooked her lips and smiled, and suddenly felt that this little palace maid was very interesting, and couldn't help but like it a little more, and asked slowly: "Did you also grow up in this valley?

Qiu Ming frowned slightly, it seemed that this question made her a little embarrassed, thought about it, and then shook her head and said: "The slave and maid don't know who else is in the slave maid's family, the slave maid was elected to the palace at the age of three, and she began to work in the palace at the age of seven, and she has not seen anyone in the family until now." Moreover, the slave maid has no memory of the events before she was three years old. ”

Lin Wan couldn't help but be secretly shocked in her heart, she didn't expect that the ancestor of the Chen family would be so cautious, even the little palace maid beside her was carefully selected and cultivated since childhood.

It's no wonder that there are no patrolling guards here, but it's very safe. It seems that there are not many palace maids, but everything is well organized.

Lin Wan sighed lightly, seemed to be very sympathetic to Qiu Ming's life experience, and asked in a low voice: "Qiu Ming's name is so good, who gave it to you?"

Qiu Ming has always been polite and smiling, but there is no emotion in her eyes. However, when he heard Lin Wan's words, a trace of warmth flashed in his eyes, and he replied crisply: "The name of the slave maid was taken by Aunt Lou, and the slave maid learned the rules from Aunt Lou since she was a child, and she was brought up by Aunt Lou. ”

Lin Wan smiled brightly and said, "Seeing the admiration and love on your face when you talk about Aunt Lou, it can be seen that Aunt Lou must love you very much, right?"

Qiu Ming's small brows couldn't help frowning again, and she seemed to feel that her reaction was too great, so she immediately regained her composure and nodded, "Yes, Aunt Lou is very good to us." ”

Lin Wan saw that Qiu Ming didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask anymore. Looking up at the palace opposite, I secretly felt strange in my heart, this ancestor of the Chen family built such a big palace in the mountains of Xiling Kingdom, why has it not been discovered for so many years?

This time, Ximen Yuqing and Ximen Yumin were dispatched, and, together with the South Vietnamese army brought by Lan Ziyu and the Pingnan army brought by Zhou Chengkuan, they surrounded this big mountain, and they did not retreat for more than a month, have they found anything?

Lin Wan sighed lightly, hoping that Zhou Chengkuan could see her map and letters and help her persuade countries to withdraw their troops. Although Lin Wan drew a map of the formation, it was not difficult for a few people to sneak in, but it was completely impossible for the armies of various countries to enter the valley through the woods and destroy the Chen family army in this valley.

Therefore, in the letter, Lin Wan persuaded Zhou Chengkuan and Lan Ziyu to withdraw from the army, telling Lan Ziyu that Xiaoshi had reliable people to take care of him here, and he was doing well, so he didn't have to worry. In the future, if Xiao Shi is willing, Lin Wan will personally send Xiao Shi back to Nanyue and send it back to her.

Lin Wan also advised Ximen Yuqing and Ximen Yumin not to act rashly and withdraw temporarily. Of course, this is the place of Xiling Kingdom, and they naturally will not tolerate the Haining Chen family building their own army and palace here, but now is not the time to solve this problem, there is no need to fight hard and sacrifice the lives of so many soldiers. You can turn light into darkness, and when the time is ripe, you can negotiate with the Chen family again and force them to withdraw from Xiling Kingdom.

Of course, when the time is ripe for what Lin Wan said, it is the time when the old ancestors of the Chen family, the lone wolf, and the old guys with strong martial arts such as the Nanyue National Master can no longer cause trouble to the world.

In the letter, Lin Wan explained the situation in the valley to Zhou Chengkuan. In fact, there is no need for Lin Wan to say anything, they also know that this matter should not be rushed, if they forcibly attack in, they will definitely suffer countless casualties, and there may not be a chance of victory.

Thinking of this, Lin Wan slowly let go of this matter. In any case, she has already sent out the map and the letter, and it is not up to her to control what to do and what she will do, let alone worry about it anymore.

Qiu Ming saw that Lin Wan didn't speak, she was also very quiet, standing aside, bowing her head slightly, and having no sense of existence at all, but it made Lin Wan feel very comfortable getting along like this, and she was not tired at all.

After a while, a middle-aged woman wearing the clothes of the palace maid in charge walked in with a little palace maid who was about the same age as Qiu Ming. The little palace maid was carrying a food box in her hand, obviously bringing food to Lin Wan.

Qiu Ming hurriedly greeted her, saluted the palace maid, and said, "I've seen Aunt Lou." ”

Aunt Lou smiled lovingly, nodded, didn't say anything, and walked straight to Lin Wan with a smile.

Qiu Ming walked to the little palace maid's side again, took the food box in her hand, and called affectionately: "Sister Qiu Lian, I'll take it." ”

Qiu Lian was not polite, so she handed the food box in her hand to Qiu Ming, and did not forget to instruct: "Sister Qiu Ming, be careful, this is specially sent by Aunt Lou to your Zhou girl." ”

Qiu Ming nodded in response, carefully brought the food box to Lin Wan, and asked respectfully, "Miss Zhou, where do you want to eat?"
