Chapter 223: Diverting the Big Tiger
The wind in the forest swept gently, and Xiao Si stood in the shadow of the trees.
There was no weapon in his hand, just a pair of eyes, scorching.
He stared intently at the man not far away.
With a handsome face, dressed in blue, the other party stood idly with his hands in his hands, looking at Xiao Si with the same eyes.
"What are you looking for me?" He asked, "It's a lot of trouble." “
Xiao Si frowned and said, "You came out for no reason last night, no matter what, it was all bad for me." ”
"We don't know each other on both sides," Xiao Si pondered his expression and said cautiously, "Right now, although I don't know much about you, but when it comes to the one named Xiaoling who lives in the Lin De Palace, you are always willing to help, right?" ”
"How can you see it," the man in blue looked at Xiao Sidao with a smile in his eyes.
"You can dodge so many guards on duty in the Lin De Palace, and enter the building, I didn't say it, the kung fu is excellent."
In fact, Xiao Si knew in his heart that the kung fu of the person standing in front of him was even above him, but people always had to take care of their own face, and there was no reason to be arrogant.
Seeing that the other party was also a little older, he praised him tactfully. "If you are willing to help me tonight, not only me, but most importantly, Xiaoling will also be happy." Xiao Si took a deep breath and said air. "I found a good reason to bring her out to talk about it," the man in blue stroked his eyebrows, "but you really got her right." "Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?" The man in blue said calmly.
Seeing that he was very cooperative and looked very talkative, Xiao Si's original nervous expression suddenly relaxed.
Xiao Si nodded and said, "Tonight." I'm sorry for you to go to the Lin De Hall again, not to find Xiaoling, but to help me lure away the master over there. “
"Why don't you ask me. With so much to do, why don't you go to her by yourself? The man in blue asked with a tentative smile.
Xiao Si affirmed in a certain tone: "I saw very clearly last night, you are also fighting alone, and there is no helper." ”
"I'll tell you the truth, I have a helper, but he can't leave tonight, and he can't help me."
I thought of Mo Yan. Xiao Si was silent for a moment, lowered his head, and said worriedly: "Think about it." You and I are both one person. "The Lin De Hall is surrounded by airtight, and last night it happened that the master of the Lin De Hall went out, and the hidden guards around him also walked away, so it was so easy to get in."
"But tonight. Until now. I didn't even hear the wind say that the one was leaving. Xiao Si said frankly.
"Doesn't that make it more difficult to get in? If you and I don't join forces, no one will be able to do anything if we are not careful. ”
Xiao Si saw that the other party's expression was slightly moved, and continued: "I have thought about this stubble carefully before and after, so I can help you bring a letter." "You are now living with the troupe of the palace, to be honest, it is not convenient for me to move around the palace."
Xiao Si pondered for a long time. Every sentence has been thought out in my heart, so at this time, I am at ease with the man in blue.
"I don't know what that troupe has to do with you. But since you entered the palace under their name, if you really want to make some twists and turns in the palace, they are the first ones who can't escape. ”
"How innocent the people in the troupe are."
"It's not good to implicate so many people, I think you are very good-looking." When Xiao Si said this, his eyes flashed and he looked at the man in blue.
The latter patiently listened to his long words, and when he heard the good face at the end, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Compliment." ”
This little chamberlain is quite interesting, and he has become a looker in an instant! In order to convince him, it is really necessary to do anything!
"I'll help you bring the words, you give me a token as a voucher," Xiao Si avoided the sight of the man in blue, lowered his head and said cautiously, "I'll show Xiaoling to her after I see her tonight." ”
The man in blue listened thoughtfully, his eyes kept on Xiao Si's face.
"Don't look at that girl's age, she has an idea in her heart, you have a relationship with her, she will always want to come to see you."
"Whether it's me or her, it's easier to move around than you in the Sealand Palace."
"Take 10,000 steps back and say, I'm from the palace," Xiao Si glanced at the forest, and said with a deep gaze, "The identity is clear, if I am really going to be arrested, Xiaoling will definitely protect me." ”
"She is the person on the tip of the heart of the master of the Lin De Palace, it is not easy to protect me?"
"I also go to the Lin De Hall on weekdays to walk around."
Xiao Si saw that the smile on the corner of the other party's lips disappeared in an instant, and his heart jumped suddenly, and his back was actually sweating, and he once again deeply felt the oppression of the oncoming person who had been in the top position for a long time.
He secretly said in his heart, the person in front of him should not be a simple spy in the sea country! If you want to trick the other party, Xiao Si feels unsure, and it's really not easy to fool when you look at it.
Thinking about it, you still have to say it and can't show your timidity!
Xiao Si cleared his throat and said in a good voice: "If you were arrested, a member of the troupe ran to the inner courtyard of the emperor, what is this called?" I can't tell even if I have a hundred mouths, isn't that the truth? ”
"How sure are you?" The man in blue suddenly asked.
Xiao Si was stunned for a moment, and reacted that he was asking him about tonight's actions, and said in a firm tone: "You are sure to lure away the big tiger, of course I can go in." ”
"Speaking of bad luck recently, there has just been a fire in the palace, why is it so troublesome for me to meet Xiaoling before."
"There aren't so many guards on duty in the Lin De Palace."
When Mingzhu brought the snacks up, he saw that I was still standing in front of the window in a daze, so he couldn't help but put down the plate in his hand, walked behind me, stretched out his hand in front of my eyes and shook it.
In an instant, I smiled and pushed her hand away and said, "What are you doing?" "Hey, you've been thinking about it for a long time," Mingzhu's eyes widened and she looked at me and said, "If you really can't figure it out, it's better to find Xiaosi and ask." "The palace is so big, where can I find him?" I looked back at Mingzhu and whispered.
Mingzhu was puzzled, stared at me with a pair of big eyes without blinking, and said in surprise: "Didn't Xiaosi live in the same courtyard as that master?" “
"Behind our Lin De Palace." "Oh, you said there." I paused and said, "He has a lot of things to do, so he doesn't stay there fixedly." There are also many acquaintances in the palace, and I always feel that he is very busy all the time. "So busy? It's like the head of Ouchi," Mingzhu couldn't help laughing, "but looking back, it's true that the few times I've seen him, it's all out of nowhere, and it's really like what you said." “
She bowed her head. Fingers snapped: "Sometimes I deliver news for people, sometimes I help people deliver things, it seems that I am busy with other people's affairs." Didn't he have a serious errand of his own? "No, don't underestimate him," I said, shaking my head, "it's so big in the palace." Xiao Si has stayed in more places. I heard that he was on duty around His Majesty. "That's amazing!" Mingzhu Qi said, "It stands to reason that those who have stayed by His Majesty's side, even if he is transferred out and changed places, he should be promoted, why is he still an ordinary attendant?" "Is it to offend His Majesty?" Mingzhu muttered.
I looked at Mingzhu, she had so many questions, but unfortunately I couldn't answer them. "You've met Little Four a lot of times." I sighed and said, "Why don't you just ask him when you see him." Maybe I can sue you, not necessarily! “
"Pick when he has time and is willing to talk to you." "It's provincial," Mingzhu bowed his head and said dejectedly, "Actually, it's not easy for me to talk to him, Xiaoling, you know him." “
Eyes swept over Mingzhu's face, and I guessed what she was thinking at the moment by looking at her expression. "You said that Xiao Si can write, and he can still talk to you." "That's right," Mingzhu's expression moved, her eyes drifted a little, "I know, it's just a little troublesome, but it's good to get used to it, sometimes it's annoying for people who talk a lot." “
That's an excuse!
I smiled slightly, "Mingzhu, what are you hiding in your sleeve?" “
In fact, as soon as she came in the morning, I saw her, and then I remembered to ask her.
She's a girl who can't hide things, and she's easy to be noticed.
Mingzhu was stunned, lowered her head and blushed and said, "It's a gadget, I only got it in the morning." "You show me."
Mingzhu shyly took the little thing out of her sleeve and placed it on my outstretched palm.
It's a green grasshopper, and it's very delicately braided. "Good craftsmanship, who made it?" I subconsciously asked, and suddenly remembered that Mingzhu had only seen a few people in the morning, and it would not be sent by the palace maid who looked at her unpleasantly. "I really can't see that Xiao Si is so skillful," I was surprised, "I just know that he has a very smart brain and reacts very quickly." “
I looked at the straw gnat, and exclaimed, "This craft can be sold at a stall." "Isn't it that I've lived with that scar-faced man for a long time, and I've learned a lot of kung fu in my hands." "Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, and I have been with skilled craftsmen for a long time, and I have learned a few tricks." "Who's the Scarface Man?" Mingzhu looked at me in confusion and said.
I coughed, "It's the Master Chen who lives with Xiao Si, we are used to calling him Scarface Man in private, of course, this is not too good, try not to say that." “
I returned the little grasshopper to Mingzhu, turned my head sideways and asked her, "When you came in, did you see the emperor downstairs?" Or, in the yard? ”
"I didn't run into it," Mingzhu said honestly, "When I went to the kitchen to get a snack, the master over there said that I should finish delivering your dim sum in a while, make one more trip, and also send one to the emperor." ”
"I heard it was in the study."
"Why don't you take it all the time, aren't you tired of running around?"
"The dim sum is still steaming, it's not good."
Delivering snacks? It's an opportunity, I thought about it and looked at Mingzhu and said quietly: "Are you going to go to the kitchen to get it now?" "Xiaoling," Mingzhu pulled my sleeve and said mournfully, "I was scared yesterday, and I was a little afraid to go to that baggage thing." “
"The emperor ran into me below, and the tone of his voice scared me."
"I don't usually see him like that, but when I see him all of a sudden, I'm scared!" "I heard that the emperor's study is not entered, and when I send it, if it is not pleased, I am afraid that yesterday's account will still be remembered, I am a little afraid!"
Mingzhu pursed her lips worriedly, took a step closer to me and said, "I'm really a little scared, Xiaoling." "Then what do you want to do?" I asked. "Xiaoling, you're the best, help me once," Mingzhu observed my expression and said softly, "I'll go to the kitchen to get the snacks, and you can help me send them to the study for the emperor later, okay?" "You're different from me, you're going to be on duty in the study soon, it's logical to go there, he's angry again, and what he says always counts." "He himself said that he asked you to go to the study on duty, and he will definitely not embarrass you if he sends a snack."
I lowered my head and thought about it, and after a while, I raised my head and looked at Mingzhu and said, "Okay, I'll send it for you." ”
I waited in the building for about half an hour, and the sound of Mingzhu's footsteps could be heard in the distance.
I went down the stairs to the empty ground floor and waited for the doorway.
Mingzhu ran over, running all the way, and her hair was messy.
"It's home!" Mingzhu said sullenly, "The dim sum to be sent has oversteamed them, and there is nothing to send over now." ”
"Xiaoling, what do you say?"
Is that okay?! I looked at Mingzhu speechlessly for a while, so I had to sigh and say, "What else can I do, go and keep an eye on the point, I'll go with you." ”
Walking out of the door, it was different from what I expected, the direction of the small kitchen on the other side of the corridor was not guarded.
"The guards have all withdrawn from the garden?" I looked around at no one and asked Mingzhu.
"The emperor let them out in the morning, I heard that the guard was not effective, and it was redundant to keep them, but," Mingzhu said in a low voice, "I also heard that there are guards around him, and they are elusive, and they are probably left in the garden." ”
I frowned and glanced at Mingzhu, and suddenly felt a little strange in my heart, and I was not on duty well?! It sounds a little weird.
suppressed the doubts in his heart and followed Mingzhu to the small kitchen one after another.
He Yanzhi was happy and quiet, there were not many people in the inner courtyard where he lived, and they all went in and out along the small side door on the other side, never in the bamboo garden.
The range of activities is also limited to a small plot of land.
When we were outside the house, the master of the kitchen was reprimanding his disciple: "If you look at it, why don't you be long-hearted." ”
"The snacks to be sent are delayed, and the emperor asks him, what should we do?!"
He trained the disciples, turned around and went out from the small side door, leaving the little disciples listlessly and continued to guard the stove.
Looking up and seeing me and Mingzhu, the one looked at me blankly for a few seconds, and Mingzhu said: "Didn't your master say that he made a bad snack, Xiaoling is the best at this, let her take a look." "Look at it, is it still possible? Xiaoling. “
It's rare to have two people to help me, one is Mingzhu, and the other is to make up for it.
My arm was not very convenient, so I had to give theoretical guidance on the fly, and the finished product out of the pot could barely be seen.
Mingzhu tasted it, and her eyes lit up and said, "I can still make this kind of dim sum!" "What are you waiting for, hurry up and help get it, I'll send it for you."
Walking through the empty corridor, Mingzhu whispered: "It's close to the study, I don't feel steady." “
Walking to the boundary a few feet away, she finally refused to go, and pulled me by the arm to look at me. "Give it to me." Taking the box, I turned to her and said, "You go back first." “
A few steps forward, I knocked on the door of He Yanzhi's study. (To be continued......)
