Chapter Thirty-Six: The Wayward Hiroshiko
Lin Wanbai hugged the wine jar and cautiously walked into the courtyard of King Qi's mansion step by step.
The Lin family is already magnificent enough, but when compared with the Qi Wangfu, I found that there was no need to compare at all, it was simply a humiliation.
This is two groups of four courtyards built side by side, but also with a private garden, there is a larger lake, pavilions and pavilions are distributed among them, exotic beasts and rare birds are kept in captivity, strange flowers and famous trees are sparse and luxuriant, there are birds chirping in summer, and there are deer singing in winter.
People like her who haven't been here can easily get lost.
Estimating the time, it was already the beginning of the night banquet, and the two little guys who were knocked out by Dai Sang just now should have come to deliver wine.
The birthday banquet of King Qi's mansion, naturally there are many guests, and there are also many people who drink booze, and these two jars of wine are estimated to be not enough.
"What is Miss Wan going to do in the palace?"
Dai Sang wasn't actually interested in this, she just obeyed Su Mu's orders, as long as it was what Lin Wanbai wanted to do, she would obey.
Lin Wanbai hugged the wine jar and looked left and right, and from time to time there were maids passing by, but no one stopped to look at her. The palace is huge, and the servants who serve are even more innumerable, and there are so many guests here today, and no one knows anyone.
"Actually, I'm here to make trouble."
Lin Wanbai looked at Dai Sang and said sincerely, now the two of them are grasshoppers tied to a rope, if something really happens, Dai Sang's skills are definitely capable of self-preservation.
But her words, it's hard to say.
Confessing to Daisan is definitely a good and harmless thing.
Dai Sang was slightly surprised when he heard her say this, and after thinking for a long time, he thought of the right words and said, "Miss Wan, you are really ...... There is Yaxing. β
Looking for the palace to make trouble, it is really too long to live a small life, and it is easy to pick and choose, even pick the Qi Wangfu, you must know that when King Qi was young, he once held an eighty-pound knife and fought on the battlefield. Stirring up trouble under his nose, isn't it looking for death?
Dai Sang sighed, it seems that this errand assigned by the master is not easy to complete.
"It's quite Yaxing."
Lin Wanbai smiled bitterly and said to Dai Sang: "Let's go find a lamp slave first, and a copper dish." β
Although Dai Sang didn't know what the use of what she wanted these things for, she nodded obediently, put down the wine jar, and Qianying quickly disappeared into the verandah.
Lin Wanbai raised her head and looked around where she was now, a long verandah, I don't know where it leads, there are gorgeous camellias on both sides, and you can see the pointed water pavilion in the distance.
She can trust Daisang's skills, just stand here and wait for her to come back.
"What are you doing standing here?"
A man who looked like a forty or fifty-year-old uncle came from the side, and he asked for peace with Lin Wanbai.
She was shocked, but she didn't have time to hide, so she had to smile and say, "I was about to send wine to the guests." β
"It's not in this direction to send wine, and the girl who recruits the new recruit is useless."
Listening to the tone, this person is still a bit of a status in the palace.
"Okay, you send it, I'll let someone bring it later, you come with me."
The uncle said impatiently, seeing Lin Wanbai standing there motionless, his irritable temper also stepped forward, snatched the wine jar from her hand, put it on the ground fiercely, and asked sharply: "Who is your housekeeper, I will talk to her, and take care of your unbright head." β
was scolded by a split head and a face, and she couldn't tell who the housekeeper who was disciplining her, didn't she have to go through the gang just now?
"Don't tell Mama SΓΉ, I'm coming, is there anything wrong with Uncle?"
Lin Wanbai is a person who can bend and stretch, in this case, in order not to help, he naturally has to answer everything.
"What uncle, don't get close to me, call me Uncle He, just follow me."
He said loudly, and walked forward.
"Yes, Uncle Ho."
Lin Wanbai followed obediently, but glanced back with some concern, what if Dai Sang came back later and couldn't find her.
"Uncle He, where are we going?"
"Elm Garden."
He Bo said it simply, but Lin Wanbai didn't understand, she didn't know where this elm garden was, and which courtyard the master lived in. But she didn't dare to ask Uncle He too much, or she wouldn't be suspicious.
Fortunately, Yuyuan is not far away, and it will be there in a while.
What catches your eye is a semicircular arch, and there is a large craggy stone block in front of it, with two words written on it: Yuyuan.
The rocks block the landscape inside the elm garden, and you have to take a detour to enter it from both sides.
Generally, even if it is just a courtyard, it will not be too intuitive for people to see the furnishings in the garden, which has the role of a shadow wall.
"When you see Hongshizi later, don't talk loudly, if you disturb Hongshizi, no one will be able to protect you."
He Bo gave her a word of advice before continuing to walk inside.
Lin Wanbai lowered her head, although the surroundings were luxurious and solemn, she had no intention of watching. She felt that she was definitely not the kind of person who would disturb others, could it be that Hiroshiko was a child who was afraid of seeing strangers?
Before he could get closer, he heard the voices of the little maids.
"Hiroshiko, put on your clothes, the hour is coming."
"Hongshizi, don't you like to eat almond cake the most, the slave maid will bring it to the kitchen later, you just need to sit obediently and let the slave maid help you curl your hair."
It seems that he is a very naughty child.
Lin Wanbai was taken into the hall by He Bo, she lowered her head, tried her best to avoid extraneous branches, and later found a chaotic gap and slipped out.
"You all go away for this son."
But listening to Hongshizi's voice, it doesn't look like a child.
Lin Wanbai couldn't hold back her curiosity, raised her head, and saw a tall and elegant man standing in front of him, wearing white obscene clothes, black silk like a waterfall hanging loosely behind his head, his face was fair, and his eyebrows and eyes were like stars.
What a rare beautiful man.
"Hong Shizi is obedient, and when the prince knows, he will be angry again."
The maid chased out with a gorgeous dress in her hand, sweating anxiously, and estimated that at this time, the birthday banquet had begun.
Although he is a rare beautiful man, it is a pity that he is a fool.
"Don'tβ"
Hiroshiko stretched out the tail note, sat on the chair, picked up the teacup on the side and tossed it in his hand.
"What are you still doing here with a pestle like a piece of wood, why don't you hurry up and help, and you have to put your clothes on."
He Bo walked up to her, patted her on the head, and whispered.
Who doesn't know that Prince Qi is notoriously short-tempered, if he neglects it, those of them who are subordinates will inevitably be severely punished.
It's over, she has worked hard to sneak in, in order to regain her own qiΔ, but now she has become a nanny.
"Hong Shizi, hurry up and get dressed, I still have a lot of things to do, I don't have time to play with you."
Lin Wanbai walked up to him and said in a low voice, Dai Sang came back and found that she was gone, she must be in a hurry, she didn't have time to play with a silly beautiful man.
Hong Shizi raised his head, looked at Lin Wanbai with narrow eyes, blinked his eyes, tilted his head and asked, "Who are you, I have never seen you in the palace." β
"The new girl, with her hands, is not sensible."
He Bo said with a smile on the side, and then glared at Luo Shenran fiercely.
Hong Shizi looked at Lin Wanbai, paused, and looked not stupid at all.
"I'm annoying them, I want her to serve me, change my clothes, and tie my hair."
The wayward Hongshizi pointed at Lin Wanbai and said willful words.
