Chapter 395: Still Found Out
Yuan Xiu looked at me in surprise, looking confused. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
I coughed, looked at her and said calmly, "I said...... The box you brought was a bit too heavy. ā
My eyes swept over the box resting on the ground again, and said to Yuan Xiu, "I'll help you take a piece to the backyard." ā
"No, Kobayashi, ...... in the backyard"
Yuan Xiu was a little incoherent, calmed down and looked at me and said, "Xiaolin, there are rules in the house, I mentioned it to you last time." ā
"There is a national teacher living in the lakeside attic in the backyard, and that is our forbidden place here," Yuan Xiu's eyes flashed, and his tone lowered a little, "Everyone knows that you must not pass by casually." ā
"Someone broke in last time, and it turned out to be ......"
As Yuan Xiu spoke, he said with a bit of depression: "I also mentioned it to my grandfather before, and I really want to take a look." ā
"Did your grandfather say yes?"
Yuan Xiu shook his head and said, "It's a pity that he didn't agree once, and I never had a chance to pass." ā
She explained to me, "Xiaolin, tell me about sending flowers and plants back...... When my grandfather didn't have a leg or foot disease, he went alone. ā
Yuan Xiu's eyes fell on the distance, and he said a little abruptly: "Every time I ask him, he refuses to tell me about the situation over there." ā
I have made up my mind, looked at Yuan Xiu and said affirmatively: "Yuan Xiu, I'll help you get a little way, and wait until you get to the vicinity of the curved bridge to see if you can go over." ā
"We'll decide then, okay?"
I knew what she meant, but I hadn't dealt with the backyard guards in the house these days.
I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I've been thinking about it all the time.
After thinking about it, I really want to check it out.
I want to see how the people over there stop it.
What's more, I would like to know the number of people in the courtyard of the house in the area of the lakeside loft at night.
Every night...... This number should not make much difference.
There were guards coming and going in the house, but the focus of the guards was the area near the empress's study and her residence in the house.
In the lakeside loft in the backyard, I can be sure of one thing from the tone revealed by the secret guard, the patrol will not move in that way.
Before leaving, the Dark Guard sent me a map as I expected, but I was alone, no matter how long I looked at the map and how much I knew, where could I be more impressed than walking and seeing it myself!
I was hopeful that if I went for a trip...... Maybe you'll find something out there!
I've been to the lake during the day, and I didn't go directly to the area around the curved bridge, because I had concerns in my heart.
In a place like a house, if there is a big move, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will find out.
As Master Wan warned us, if something happens in the house, it will really be a failure.
In my opinion, being expelled from the house is still a trivial matter, and it may be thrown directly to the front-line camp!
...... Thoughts turned one after another in my heart, I pondered, and turned my head to look at the small courtyard in the night.
So far, Ah Rong has listened to me and given us space to speak, and he has not followed.
As for Master Wan, I believe that the fact that the carriage has loopholes alone is enough for him to worry about.
It took him a full afternoon to come back after dark...... It should have been some kind of agreement with the female officer, or...... Master Wan was persuaded by the female officer and decided to hide it.
However, this is contrary to his own character.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken that long.
Master Wan, I can see that he is in a dilemma...... If you want to see that loophole and not remedy it, let the hidden danger exist...... What's the point of calling him in for repairs?
About this, Ah Rong and I couldn't persuade him.
In the case that Master Wan did not take the initiative to mention it, we can only pretend not to know.
He didn't have time to meddle with things.
As long as we didn't make a disturbance, Master Wan's mind was focused on repairing the carriage.
...... Standing under the big tree, Yuan Xiu and I thought about it separately, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.
After a while, I said to Yuan Xiu: "Yuan Xiu, I won't make it difficult for you, and I won't insist on going over to see it, just near the curved bridge." ā
"I'll go with you, and I'll be able to help you get things along the way."
I emphasized to her: "The box is very heavy, what if half of the road falls?" Are you going to do it again? ā
I looked at Yuan Xiu, smiled slightly, and said softly to her: "Yuan Xiu, if you agree, I'll go and talk to Ah Rong." ā
I paused, looked at her and said, "Lest he come and see that I'm not here in a moment, and he will be worried." ā
I asked myself if the proposed solution was reasonable enough.
If you want to talk about the curved bridge, it's just a face-to-face with the guards...... I think...... It shouldn't be a big deal!
Yuan Xiu stood there, very embarrassed.
After thinking about it, she looked at me and asked, "Xiaolin, are you curious and want to see what the backyard is like?" ā
"You must be like me, and you want to see the attic where the National Teacher lives...... Even if it's watching from afar? ā
For the people in the house, there are not a few people who have the same idea, and Yuan Xiu must have heard others talk about it.
She walks around the house a lot more than I do!
I thought about it for a while, and followed her thoughts: "Yuan Xiu, you're right, that's what you mean." ā
"Yuan Xiu, I'm just curious, and I really want to go and see, I don't have to go over."
I lowered my head and thought about it, looked at Yuan Xiu and said, "Besides, whether we can go over or not, it's not that we can succeed by thinking about it, we have to see if the guards let me go, what do you say?" ā
"Maybe the guards won't even let you go, and I'll help deliver the flowers and plants by myself!"
Yuan Xiu hesitated a little, and finally agreed after thinking about it.
Now that the decision has been made, there has to be the next step.
I looked at the gate of the courtyard on the west side of the small courtyard and said to Yuan Xiu: "I'll go and tell Ah Rong, you wait for me here." ā
Yuan Xiu stood still and didn't move, I pointed to the rockery on the side and said, "You can go and stand in a leeward place over there, it's too cold here." ā
...... Walking into the courtyard gate on the west side, I saw Ah Rong standing near the steps, he was shivering in the wind, but his eyes kept looking in the direction I entered.
I looked at him and was a little speechless.
I walked in slowly, and he stepped forward and lowered his voice: "Xiaolin, you still have to follow her to the backyard?" Beware of Master Wan's knowledge and nagging. ā
"Let's not talk about this first, when you come out, do you see whether Master Wan is awake or already asleep?"
I looked at Ah Rong and asked, my eyes looking in the direction of the room.
"Xiaolin, you really want to go over there, it's a forbidden place over there!"
Ah Rong's tangled things are obviously different from mine.
"Shhhh
The result of my insistence was that he gave in.
"Master Wan, he didn't wake up, he fell asleep."
Ah Rong sighed, looked at me and said, "Xiaolin, besides, even if he is awake and he doesn't come out to stop him, you can just treat him as asleep." ā
"Well, I see you're suddenly a lot smarter."
I was so impressed with him, I didn't expect him to say that.
"Xiaolin, did you talk like that?"
"Okay, you've overheard, and I have nothing to hide," I said calmly to Ah Rong, "I'm going to help Yuan Xiu get something and go to the backyard to have a look." ā
Ah Rong looked at me and asked with a suspicious face, "Xiaolin, are you really curious?" Nothing else? ā
"No, just curious."
"It's not strange that people are curious, right?!"
"Xiaolin, I always feel that something is not right, do you have something to hide from me?"
I stood still, my gaze slowly moved to his face, looked at him intently, and said, "If there is, it must be something that has nothing to do with you, and I have to do it myself." ā
"Okay, I won't ask you anymore, you be careful!"
Seeing that I was turning around to leave, Ah Rong stopped me again and said, "Xiaolin, the kind of place in the backyard is not something that can be gone casually, especially when it involves the National Teacher, you also know the rumors outside." ā
"If the guards stop you, you can't break in!"
"Well, I'm measured, don't worry!"
...... I walked out of the west gate of the small courtyard, and saw Yuan Xiu in the distance listening to my words and hiding in the leeward of the rockery, despite this, she was still so cold that she stretched out her hand and breathed.
Seeing me coming out, Yuan Xiu immediately ran over, I stopped her, squatted down and picked up the box on the ground.
We walked through the woods.
The place where we live is so remote that it is the most inconspicuous corner of the whole house.
To get to the backyard from where we lived, we had to pass through a lot of places in the courtyard.
Yuan Xiu led the way, and I suddenly realized that the route she took me seemed to be deliberately planning to bypass the patrol.
I chuckled in my heart, looked at Yuan Xiu and asked, "Did you take a detour?!" ā
Under the moonlight, Yuan Xiu turned to look at me, I don't know why, her face suddenly turned red, she thought about it, avoided my gaze and said: "Xiaolin, I don't like to meet those people on patrol, looking at people is the same as interrogating prisoners." ā
"I'm just like you at this point!"
I answered, looked at Yuan Xiu with a sigh of relief, and said, "I wanted to ask you before, but now it seems that I don't need to, we have similar ideas." ā
"But no matter how you go around, there is always the possibility of encountering, and if we do, we will tell the truth."
"Well, let's just say that my grandfather is sick, I'm responsible for sending flowers and plants over, the things are too heavy, I met you halfway, you helped me get it."
"Xiaolin, you are a craftsman in the small courtyard anyway, everyone knows it, you live very close to us, and it is normal to help."
I nodded and continued to walk forward, Yuan Xiu had figured out how to deal with it by herself, and I just cooperated.
"Yuan Xiu, you really haven't been to the backyard once? Have you sneaked past to see it? ā
Yuan Xiu walked on the path with me, there was no one around, the moonlight stretched the shadows, and there was only the sound of the wind in my ears.
"I'll tell you the truth, I went quietly once, and when I saw the guards over there, I ran back in fright."
Yuan Xiu looked sideways at me and whispered.
"The guards over there are quite strange, some don't know where they came from, just looking at the curved bridge, there don't seem to be so many people!"
My heart moved, what she mentioned, could it be that she was also a dark guard!
If you want to say that those people come out to deal with them directly, it's okay to say, if you want to say that they are hidden in the shadows, with my ability, this bit of effort is not enough.
From this point of view, tonight is considered to be a way to explore, at least first understand the situation on duty at night, a little impression.
...... From a distance, the figure hiding in the tree suddenly moved, and he clearly heard the voice of the voice in the distance.
When he heard it clearly, the blood in his whole body seemed to rush to the top of his head in an instant!
I didn't expect that people were here, people were here!!
That cunning girl evaded the search of the people in the Martyrdom Pavilion, avoided one checkpoint after another, and actually arrived at the mansion in Beidi Town quietly.
Craftsman? So, one of the three people parked in the small courtyard is her?!
Thoughts flashed through my mind, and the figure in the tree was faster than ever.
There was only one purpose for him, to find a way to stop her before she went to the backyard.
There are indeed guards in the backyard, but those people, where is the ink word reliable.
At the moment, Mo Yan is in the empress's imperial study, and she sent someone to call her after nightfall, which means ...... No, you have to find a way to get that girl away as soon as possible!
...... On the corridor outside the imperial study, Mo Yan was talking to the female official at the moment.
"How have you been feeling better these days?"
The female officer standing in front of her looked at the young man in front of her with a somewhat apprehensive expression, and only asked in a low voice after hesitation.
At this time, there were still people in the imperial study, and Mo Yan had been waiting here for a long time, so that he was almost a little anxious.
"It's better."
Although Mo Yan has more or less prejudices about the people around the empress, he still maintains a detached politeness on the surface.
The female officer didn't notice it, or she understood the reaction of the young man in front of her as a sign that he was not good at words and had an introverted personality.
In her opinion, the only boy who followed the National Teacher was usually in very little contact with the outside, and was in the attic in the backyard almost all day long.
If he has a detached temperament, it won't look right! Rather, this is in line with the expected reaction.
The female officer said something one after another, and Mo Yan's patience was gradually exhausted.
In order to stop the boring conversation in front of him, a thought flashed through his mind.
After thinking about it, Mo Yan looked at the female official and said, "There is something I want to ask, who is in charge of the big kitchen now?" ā
This matter is very oolong, Childe can not care about it, if he doesn't mention it, who knows if there will be a next time!
"I almost got the wrong medicinal meal this morning, if I could, I'd like to remind them and tell them......"
Mo Yan suddenly stopped while speaking, and his gaze swept towards the distance of the corridor.
The figure that flashed just now...... It looks familiar!
