When the attendant heard this, when he looked at me, his brow furrowed again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He didn't ask any more.

I heard a loud noise in the street outside my window, and I couldn't help but lean closer to the window and look into the street, and temporarily stopped talking to him.

I looked around and saw that there were many more people on the streets.

Looks like...... Some of them came in from outside the town.

There were so many people on the street that passers-by slowed down their walking.

I also saw a carriage blocked in the middle of the road, and the driver was in front, and the cart was moving slowly.

I looked over the crowd and saw a few people in the stall on the corner who looked different from the people around me, and I chuckled in my heart, and then I couldn't help but look a few more times.

The first thing that caught my eye was their outfits.

When I was in Suzhou, I saw people dressed up in similar ways on the streets, and even I used to wear similar clothes.

These people are similar to how I used to hide my true face when I was walking around the city for safety.

They wore the same hats and thickly wrapped garments.

Usually this kind of attire will be seen on some people with special status, or just ...... Hide something!

My eyes swept over those few people again and again, and I thought that it might not be a good thing to see them on the streets of Northland.

I thought of the chaos on the streets when I was in Suzhou, and then I thought about what Yuan Xiu told me after he went back to the house with the gardener.

Could there be a connection between the two? A thought crossed my mind.

...... In the courtyard of the North House in Beidi Town.

In Ah Rong's opinion, the person who appeared with the palace maid Huiping just now, and then stopped them to ask, was really a little weird.

To say that he is just a guard in the mansion, and he is not a woman Liu or His Majesty's subordinates.

He wasn't on duty at his place, and he ran to ask about the whereabouts of their craftsmen, which was not a matter for the guards.

Therefore, Ah Rong was puzzled when he thought about it.

Do people in the house move around frequently?

This kind of thing rarely happens even in the barracks, and there is no shortage of people here.

Even if he assumed a possibility for the other party, he still felt unreasonable when he thought about it.

It's a pity that Yuan Xiu didn't seem to be too entangled in what happened on the road just now.

Her interest at the moment had long since shifted to talking about Kobayashi's affairs.

All she asked Ah Rong was about Kobayashi.

Ah Rong couldn't find anyone to talk about for the time being, so he had to put aside the doubts in his heart for the time being.

He thought back to it, and although the man looked like a guard, it was a little different from the other guards he had seen in the mansion.

This feeling can only be understood and cannot be expressed.

If Xiao Lin was here, Ah Rong thought...... Maybe he'll see it more realistically.

Ah Rong pondered silently in his heart, could it be that the guard was also transferred from?!

It's like they're transferred from a front-line camp.

He thought about it, but couldn't come up with a clue for a while.

Yuan Xiu, who was walking on the side, suddenly looked at him and asked, "Ah Rong, has Xiao Lin been to the big kitchen today?" ”

Ah Rong suddenly felt inexplicable when he heard this, how could he remember to ask this?

Immediately after, he heard footsteps, looked towards the path ahead, and immediately understood what Yuan Xiu meant.

No wonder Yuan Xiu asked, because the steward who had met in the big kitchen happened to be far away in the direction where they were.

Ah Rong said in his heart...... They are all working in the house, Yuan Xiu They have been here for a long time, maybe Yuan Xiu also knows the steward.

Ah Rong froze, turned his head to Yuan Xiu and responded: "Xiao Lin didn't go this morning, I'm in a hurry to go out!" ”

"Master Wan is worried that if Xiao Lin goes to the big kitchen and is called by the people over there to do some chores, he may not be able to go out with him in time."

The steward had gone all the way, but instead of going in front of them, he had passed a corner near them and turned onto another road.

He had already seen Yuan Xiu and Ah Rong.

Before turning around, the steward glanced at Yuan Xiu and nodded at her from a distance.

...... Ah Rong looked at his back, looked sideways at Yuan Xiu and asked, "Yuan Xiu, do you know the steward of the big kitchen?" ”

"Well, I've met a few times," Yuan Xiu said bluntly, "We usually don't deal with each other very much, and grandpa is more familiar than me." ”

"The place in the house is quite large, and I don't move around as much here as my grandfather."

If it weren't for the gardener's bad legs recently, Yuan Xiu would have had fewer chances to come out of the flower garden before.

Her range of activity is almost concentrated in a circle near the flower bed.

If you go a little further, it also includes the forest where you meet Kobayashi, which is also an area where you usually walk around.

As for the place where the empress lived, as well as the places where those female officials walked around, Yuan Xiu really rarely went there.

The gardener reminded her several times to let her little granddaughter go to those places as little as possible.

As for the residence of the National Teacher in the backyard...... Anyway, it's a forbidden place for people who work in the house.

"You told me just now that the steward wanted to leave Xiao Lin in the big kitchen, did you mean the person just now?"

Yuan Xiu meant something, she knew that the person was the steward in the big kitchen, and she heard that the power was quite big.

After hearing this, Ah Rong nodded and responded: "Yes, it's the steward." ”

"I heard that when Xiao Lin went over, he asked a lot of questions, and I waited outside for a long time before he let Xiao Lin out."

After hearing this, Yuan Xiu lowered his head thoughtfully and thought about it, then raised his head to look at Ah Rong and said, "According to what you say, even if Xiao Lin doesn't go to be a military doctor, he can do other things in the camp...... Thing. ”

She didn't pick it out, but Ah Rong still understood.

The big kitchen steward had just passed by, and it was easy to think of the man going up.

"Yuan Xiu, you said that the camp is in charge of the meals?"

As soon as Ah Rong's words fell, he immediately saw Yuan Xiu nodding at him.

Ah Rong thought about it and felt that this assumption was quite reasonable, and immediately smiled and said, "That's right! I think it's perfectly fine, but I'm afraid he may not be happy with it. ”

"His craftsmanship, you can go to Your Majesty's side to cook meals!"

Ah Rong said with a regretful look: "Xiao Lin also told me that the dim sum made in the big kitchen is not delicious!" ”

The implication is that his own craftsmanship is superior!

Thinking of this, Ah Rong grinned and said, "That guy looks at the dim sum made by the cook in the courtyard...... It's very unsightly, I'm very curious! ”

Yuan Xiu looked at him and asked, "What are you curious about?" ”

"Well, I thought about what kind of delicious snacks he would make if he had enough things for Xiao Lin!"

"You know, that guy either doesn't say it, and if he does, it's still very reliable!"

The two were silent for a while, Yuan Xiu was still thinking with her head down, and then she suddenly turned her head to look at Ah Rong.

After a few seconds, Yuan Xiu whispered to Ah Rong: "Ah Rong, I've been listening to you talk about Xiaolin, and he seems to be particularly interested in making food." ”

"One thing occurred to me...... Could it be that he is making up his mind......"

Yuan Xiu paused between words, Ah Rong looked at her in surprise and asked, "Yuan Xiu, what are you talking about?" ”

Yuan Xiu did not speak directly this time, and said it tactfully.

"That's right...... Ah Rong, I heard that the National Teacher came from the capital city and went all the way to Beidi Town, anyway, the food made by those people brought by His Majesty...... Nothing satisfied him. ”

Ah Rong said in surprise: "How did I hear that the imperial doctor is the same, I heard that the National Teacher still doesn't let them see a doctor." ”

The treatment enjoyed by the National Teachers is really not something that ordinary people can understand.

If Mo Yan heard this sentence, he would probably scoff at it!

A trace of hesitation flashed in Yuan Xiu's eyes, then he looked at Ah Rong and shook his head and said, "There is still a difference." ”

She emphasized: "The national teacher himself is well-versed in medical skills, so he doesn't look down on those imperial doctors, but he is not in good health, and he has never heard of cooking by himself!" ”

Yuan Xiu thought of Xiao Lin's actions, as well as the disgust he showed every time he talked about the military doctor.

After thinking about all this, she felt that her assumption was not unreasonable!

"Ah Rong, maybe Xiao Lin doesn't have much interest in studying medicine, but his father forced him to study."

Ah Rong looked at Yuan Xiu with a puzzled expression.

Yuan Xiu sighed, staring at the forest in the distance, and didn't make a sound for a long time.

After a while, Yuan Xiucai continued: "I just think that Xiao Lin likes the matter of cooking, didn't you say that he was affected by his sister?" ”

Yuan Xiu tried to find more clues from it in order to understand him.

"Xiao Lin has always wanted to go to the backyard to have a look, and he is also curious about the national teacher, you and I can see it, maybe...... Xiao Lin is really fighting this idea in his heart! ”

Hearing this, Ah Rong suddenly thought of Xiao Lin's expression when he talked to him, and the way he said that last night...... It seems that what Yuan Xiu said makes a lot of sense!

However, when he thought about it, he felt that there was a loophole.

He looked at Yuan Xiu and said, "But the question is...... Your Majesty has never said that you will find someone else to take care of the meals for the National Teacher......"

Yuan Xiu interrupted him, shook his head and said, "Although Your Majesty hasn't talked about it yet, it may not be the case when you want to go to the front-line camp." ”

It's already ready to fly, it's been a few days!

She paused, and then said, "When the time comes...... Maybe a few people from the house will follow them to the front line! ”

"Is Kobayashi waiting for an opportunity? Waiting for the opportunity to get close to the National Teacher! ”

Ah Rong was startled when he heard this, and quickly looked around, and then looked at Yuan Xiu with a displeased expression and said, "Yuan Xiu, let's talk about this kind of thing secretly, and we must not say it in front of those people in the house." ”

"When I was in the front-line camp, I heard a lot of rumors about His Majesty."

Yuan Xiu glanced at him puzzled.

Ah Rong's face froze, and after being silent for a moment, he raised his head to look at her and said vaguely: "Anyway...... If Your Majesty knew, not to mention that Xiao Lin had no chance, maybe he would have been sent out. ”

It's entirely possible!

Rumors are rampant around the National Teacher...... If it weren't for His Majesty's suppression, I'm afraid it would have spread even more.

Ah Rong instructed Yuan Xiu: "Now it's just that we are guessing, but although that guy Xiaolin is often distracted, if you want to say what he is thinking in his heart, no one really knows!" ”

Ah Rong's eyes rolled, and he came up with an idea for her: "Yuan Xiu, don't you often meet with him?" ”

"Why, I only speak when I have something to discuss."

Ah Rong continued to take care of himself: "When Xiaolin comes back, you can ask!" ”

"It's not a taboo topic, he might tell you when he's happy!"

They walked down the remote path in the middle of the house, and it was not long before they came to the forest outside the craftsman's yard.

It was quiet, and there was hardly any noise except for the wind.

"Yuan Xiu, if we really guess it, you have to remind him that he must not go to the backyard casually."

Ah Rong was a little worried, "I heard that someone was really sent out last time, but then there was no news at all!" ”

Yuan Xiu's eyes fell on his face, and he saw his expression clearly, then lowered his head and thought about it, and then said to Ah Rong: "Haven't you reminded him a few times?" ”

"Even Master Wan told him!"

It's all reminded again and again!

Ah Rong said affirmatively: "However, Xiao Lin told me last night that now he can recognize the road when he walks around the house." ”

"He said it himself, so he shouldn't break into the backyard."

"Didn't we see Hui Ping, she drew a map of the house for Xiao Lin!"

Ah Rong turned his gaze, looked at Yuan Xiu Zhengse and said, "You also saw the guard who came with Hui Ping just now, and he looked like he was interrogating the prisoner when he asked." ”

"That's right, when we met yesterday...... It's a little different. ”

...... The squire in front of me looked at me again.

His gaze was fixed on my face, and I sensed it, and turned my head to look back at him.

"Do you have any more questions for me?"

He nodded, looked at me, and said, "It's too chaotic here in Northland Town, you don't need to be here." ”

I looked at him suspiciously, and then responded, "You are the person who does things next to Lord Liu...... This sounds very inappropriate to come out of your mouth. ”

Of course, this is not the first time that he has had a strange question.

"If you are given a chance to leave safely, and you don't have to go back to the house, how do you choose?"

I shook my head at him and said, "Impossible, I'm here, unless I'm leaving, and the opportunity given to me by others depends on whether I'm happy or not." ”

"I made it very clear, I have to continue to help Master Wan work in the mansion together, as for other ...... Things have to be done one by one. ”

"Like tea in a cup, you have to drink it slowly."

"I don't have a reason to leave for a while."

I hope to confirm the method that Master Wan has come up with.

Go back to the house before dark, and even if Master Wan doesn't want to say it at night, I will ask Ah Rong to help me take a closer look at whether it works.

After a while, I looked at the attendant and said in a questioning tone: "I can hear it, you have been repeating the same question to me, I am more curious about why!" ”
