Early in the morning, at the gate of the Royal Palace of Sealand.

The avenue leading to the outside stretched straight out, and the guards checked the people leaving the palace in the usual order.

A qiē is all step-by-step, not slow, and occasionally some people with higher status in the palace will take the lead and go out ahead of others.

The busiest part of the Sealand Palace is in the early morning and near dusk.

The former is that the palace people want to go out to run errands, and the latter is to rush back from the palace gate closed.

The guards were busy, and suddenly saw a person dressed in the clothes of the Lin De Hall rushing towards this side, the man was covered in sweat and holding a sign in his hand.

The chief of the guard who was discussing the meeting was alarmed and hurried to meet him.

The person who came was Lin De Palace, a steward in He Yanzhi's palace, and the sign in his hand was not more than usual, but a gift from His Majesty held by the emperor himself, which was tantamount to seeing him himself.

The steward who came over couldn't take a good breath, grabbed the guard who was in charge of checking at the palace gate and said: "The emperor has an order, except for those who want to leave the palace with His Majesty's will, the rest of the people are not allowed to be released today. ”

He didn't speak loudly, but it still caused an uproar among the palace people waiting in line.

"How is this good, your lord also ordered me to go to the shop in the east of the city to buy things for him today."

"Yes, the beauty also asked me to go to the embroidery shop to get the material for him."

"Under the emperor's order, we can't go out, so we have to be scolded."

Most of the people waiting in line showed anxious expressions on their faces, secretly feeling that the people in front of them were really lucky. Because the hour is early, they will not have time to be stopped!

The chief of the guard winked and scolded the doorkeeper. The entrance to the palace suddenly fell silent.

Next, the guards asked the people in line to evacuate one by one, in order.

There were complaints from those people when they returned, but the officials on duty didn't care, and only grabbed the steward of the Lin De Hall and said respectfully: "Can you please take a step to speak." ”

Under the shade of the tree, the steward of the Lin De Hall couldn't help but be questioned again and again, and lowered his voice and whispered: "There is a person running away from our place." "The emperor was so angry this morning, and the guards of the Lin De Hall are kneeling there to ask for guilt."

The official on duty had a solemn face. Listen intently to the steward.

"You must not leak the news, the emperor said that he would conduct a thorough investigation for a day today, and even the guards in the palace received the order. Later, I will follow the route demarcated by the emperor to find it. ”

The steward of the Lin De Hall was preoccupied, looking at the expression of a heavy burden on his shoulders, to be honest, if he couldn't find anyone. He wasn't sure what punishment he would get.

The emperor did not treat his subordinates too harshly on weekdays. But that was when he didn't commit anything, he didn't know the bottom of his heart, and this hesitant appearance fell in the eyes of the officials on duty, and he couldn't help but infect his feelings.

"Anyway, the one who was released in front of you didn't receive the news, we didn't have time, and if someone else goes out later. It's your responsibility. ”

The steward of Lin De Hall made a gesture and said, "No matter what, you must strictly guard against death, don't stab Lou Zi." ”

The officer on duty returned the salute and thanked: "You reminded that. We'll be careful, I don't know who is running? ”

"Hey, I can't say it for a while."

Speaking of which, the steward is really depressed! It's a good person, this is still snatched by Penglai Pavilion, and the delicate relationship between Lin De Hall and Penglai Pavilion is well known to everyone in the palace.

How to deal with the aftermath? He is worried about the emperor.

"Could it be that he took away the important things of the Lin De Palace?" The officials on duty had their brains moving fast and were in a hurry to analyze!

"It stands to reason that if you want to go out at the palace gate, we have all checked it carefully," he looked at the steward of the Lin De Palace, and said with a confused look in his eyes, "You said that the emperor lost his temper early in the morning, and the person who ran away was naturally last night." ”

"Last night, the gate of the palace was closed a long time ago, and not a single mosquito could fly, and nothing was found in the routine inspection team this morning."

"You don't have to guess," the steward of the Lin De Hall sighed, "The reason for this is not for you and me to ask, in short, I have already passed it on, you just need to be careful here." ”

"As long as people are not let go right under your nose, they can always be found if they stay in the palace."

The official on duty looked at the back of the departing steward of the Lin De Palace, his steps were heavy, and he knew that something was wrong at a glance.

It seems that the emperor has never heard of such a person who can make the emperor angry!

In the legend in the palace, it is only said that he has a gentle personality and treats his subordinates leniently, how can he change his appearance overnight?

Could it be that he guessed that something important had been stolen? Maybe it was something that His Majesty had rewarded, and the officials on duty speculated in their hearts that this point might be even greater.

In other words, Lin Dedian ran away with a thief!

Senior brother came back near dawn.

At that time, I was wrapped in a quilt and slept soundly, when suddenly my nose felt a little itchy, and I reached out and played with it, and I found something with a fluffy texture.

I woke up and almost sweated.

When I opened my eyes, I found that Tianfang had moved a chair and sat next to me, leaning down and brushing my cheek with a feather.

I said angrily: "Senior brother, what are you doing, scaring people early in the morning, I thought it was something." ”

Tianfang put away the feather and put it on the table, but I looked very familiar, and suddenly remembered the configuration of the troupe, and thought that he had removed it from the props.

There is no need to shout, with this method, it is enough damage, so that I think I was pecked in the face by a bird!

"Before dawn, you'll have to change places."

Tianfang changed his position, sat at the table and looked at me and said with a smile, "Why don't you wait for the people from the troupe to come in and see it, thinking that I robbed a little palace maid to come over." ”

"What nonsense," I shook my head helplessly, suddenly remembering the reason why he went out in the middle of the night, and quickly grabbed his arm and asked, "Little Mingzhu, is it okay?" ”

Tianfang stared at me and said in a low voice: "When I go again, He Yanzhi has already returned, and the Lin De Hall is impenetrable. I couldn't get in. "Ah, what should I do, it's over!" "At this time, Xiao Mingzhu may have been locked up." I stood up all at once. looked at Tianfang and said anxiously, "Why don't I go back, I can't even be involved in Xiao Mingzhu being tortured." “

I made up for He Yanzhi's angry look, and I only shuddered. "What's the panic," Tianfang smiled and grabbed me, and said lazily, "I'll tease you." Take her back early, and settle it properly. "Senior brother!" I stomped my foot and said, "When is it?" You still have time to lie to me! "Your appearance is funny, I see your two eyebrows drawn, and I'm in a hurry, it's really funny."

I looked at him indignantly. Turn your back and decide not to talk to him anymore! "Alright. It's like a firecracker, just a little bit. "What do you still say, it's not that you liar, you're all bored, senior brother, dare to ask how old you are, playing such tricks?" "Let's stop making trouble, let's get down to business." Tianfang put away his smile and pulled me and said, "Sit down at the table." “

Wait for me to pass. When he sat down, he still crossed his face, very unhappy, and Tianfang smiled faintly, and took a package from the chair placed next to the door against the door.

This package is much more than the one I carried last night, and it looks heavy, not to mention carrying it in my hand, even if I carry it on my body, it takes a lot of effort.

The average small physique, I'm afraid I can't bear it. "Clothes in there? For me to wear? I asked, "Look at this volume, look at this size, how many sets of clothes do you need?!" “

Curiously, I reached out and patted the package, making a dull sound, and it was full. "Not only clothes, but also food."

Tianfang unwrapped the package and showed me one by one from the inside.

First of all, on the top floor, there were two sets of changing clothes, looking at the new ones, I don't know where he got them, but they looked like they had just been made.

Tianfang saw that my eyes lit up, and said with a smile: "Shangyi Bureau." “

It dawned on me that I picked up one of them and looked at it carefully in my hand, and sure enough, it was a new stitch, a freshly finished garment. "I went out to see it once during the day, and the palace maids I met on the road in the palace were the most wearing this cotton robe!"

I pinched it in my hand, and the texture of the clothes was not as good as that of Penglai Pavilion and Lin Dedian, which were ordinary padded clothes.

Wearing this garment, it feels good to walk around the palace during the day when the sun rises.

But at night, this thickness can't stop the cold wind of winter!

can be used in the palace, mainly because there are few palace maids who walk around at night, except for those who rest, most of the remaining guards are on duty in each palace.

Each palace has its own territory for heating, charcoal fire is indispensable, and the amount of silver spent on this item every year reaches a non-negligible amount in the palace, so they are used to wearing this.

Speaking of charcoal, there is also a level, such as where Yun Chu lives, according to Qingzhi, it is the top charcoal, which is comparable to that used by the empress.

But the little palace maid's residence is obviously much worse.

I walked through the clothes of the Lin De Hall and the clothes of the Penglai Pavilion, and I didn't think that there would be a chance to wear anything else.

I picked up my clothes and laid them on the other side of the table.

Tianfang's observation is correct, I have confirmed, what he brought me is indeed the most ordinary palace maid in the palace.

Next, inside the package were two boxes of dim sum, which were packed in small and delicate boxes, but they were cold to the touch.

When I opened it, one box was almond shortbread and the other was plum blossom cake.

"It's not easy to bring hot food after all, it's still easy to hold dim sum, and girls like it." Tianfang put the lid on me and said. "The Imperial Dining Room?" I didn't find the mark on the box, I couldn't help but look at him with half a question, Tianfang shook his head, "Definitely not, I went to the imperial dining room, and there were many people in and out, and I was still stewing ginseng soup in the middle of the night." "There was a squire watching next to me, and I looked outside the door, thought about it, and took a detour."

Tianfang said to me: "These two boxes of dim sum were taken from the small kitchen of the person closest to His Majesty, I forgot what they were called for a while, it seems that the surname is Su." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Tianfang's lips: "I walked a few places and looked at a few small kitchens, the one surnamed Su is a particular person, the dim sum in the small kitchen is very good, and it can be eaten!" ”

I looked at Tianfang speechlessly, and he reached out and patted my head gently.

I tried to recall it in my heart, and the name of Su Hyun floated, I lived closest to the empress, and my surname was Su, it must be him!

I think of the scene when I met him, such a delicious snack can't raise him fat, isn't it said that sweets are the easiest to grow meat?!

It's probably because there are too many calculations in my heart, and I have too many things on my mind, and I'm too busy competing for favor to take care of growing fat!

Yes, that's the truth! "What is this?" My eyes widened and I saw that there was something underneath, and I immediately picked up a dagger in my baggage and asked. "For your self-defense."

Tianfang took it lightly from my hand, weighed it in his hand, and waved an arc in the air, turned his head to look at me and smiled, "Xiao Ling'er, I have seen many weapons, and I think they are not suitable." "Later, I searched around the empress's residence, she was not there, I found this, I think it's not bad, it's easy to hold in your hand, your hand is small, and the dagger is enough."

After that, Tianfang picked up the dagger and touched my palm for a while, with an expression of "Look, I know the size of your hand"!

I put my head away and don't look at him!

Looking at it one after another, Tianfang's tone was calm, but I who was sitting opposite him looked at him with a big mouth and said stunned: "You even went to the place where the empress lived, you are too"

How do I hear that the Sealand Palace is not like a royal palace, but like a market in the sky, and if you can't pick and choose here, you will go there and choose one.

It can also be said that the palace has become his big warehouse, and every nobleman, beauty, and even His Majesty's territory is a small warehouse, helping him store things waiting for him to pick it up.

This feeling is really sour!!

When I can be so proficient and calm, how good it would be!

Tianfang seemed to see what I was thinking, and said jokingly: "If you change to your little junior sister, hey, it's early." ”

Don't bring such a blow!

Let me fantasize about it, no, really!

I glanced at him, and continued to rummage through the baggage, this time in a light robe, clearly men's clothes.

"The little chamberlain in the palace is outside, when necessary, maybe you have to use it, be prepared." Tianfang winked at me and said.

He shook the chair, leaned his body against the back of the chair, and out of nowhere, he took out a few tangerines like a trick, and looked small, but yellow, which was very gratifying.

He threw one to me and said with a smile: "I took it from the table in the empress's room, and it tasted good." ”

Tianfang's fingers delicately broke open the outer skin of the orange and stuffed the orange inside into his mouth one by one.

Seeing that I held the orange in my hand and did not move, he pointed to the orange and urged: "Eat, eat and I'll send you on your way." ”

"Senior brother, can you say a few more words, it sounds like it's scared to death!"

I closed the package, carried it lightly, and doubled my strength, but it still sank down. "Everything can be used, and I am willing to bring more, but this amount"

I looked at Tianfang hesitantly, causing him to smile at me. "Don't waste your efforts, I'll take you to a temporary hiding place, and I'll take the package for you!" (To be continued......)
