Huang Qiong, who wanted to open it, returned to his mansion and accompanied Chen Yao, who had been waiting for him, to have dinner before handing over the jade flute and hosta handed over to him by his mother. Stroking the two things handed over by Huang Qiong, Chen Yao also felt a lot of emotion when he remembered the past. Especially after pulling out the short sword in the jade flute, looking at the sword body that had been wiped bright, Chen Yao sighed even more.

Swinging this short sword into a sword flower casually, and after feeling it carefully, after cherishing Xiao Zhong, Chen Yao said: "This Xiao Zhong sword was given by Miss when she went down the mountain, her master. has been accompanying the young lady to walk the rivers and lakes, and it can be said that she has never left her side. I don't know how much blood of wicked people is stained on the sword of this short sword. ”

"Since Miss entered the palace until now, I haven't seen Miss touch this sword for more than 20 years. Even when the old prince died, the situation was so tense, and the young lady did not move. Except for the occasional song to play a plum blossom three lanes, it is only collected in the bedroom on weekdays, and even I can't see it. ”

"I didn't expect that today, more than 20 years later, I saw this Xiao Zhongjian again. This sword is too precious to Mademoiselle for me to take with me. As a token, it is enough to have this hosta. None of the young lady's friends didn't know this hairpin. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Yao was a little reluctant to put down the short sword in his hand, and his attitude was very resolute: "This Xiao Zhong sword, Miss Jin'er asked you to bring it out, it should be for you to use as a self-defense weapon." The appearance of this sword is extremely ingenious, and people who don't know the inside story don't know that there is a short sword in this Xiao Nei. ”

"As a prince, your identity is such a speciality, it is not convenient to bring other blades. From the appearance of this jade flute, at most, the Xiao body of the whole jade looks a little more luxurious. You are the prince, and having such a jade flute is not a valuable thing. ”

"Having him in your hand is both a defensive blade and not an eye-catcher. This is the original intention of the young lady to let you take it out of the palace. As for the token to find people, this hosta is enough. Bringing this Xiao Zhongjian is not only inconvenient not to mention, but also easy to cause unnecessary trouble. ”

"If nothing else, not counting the short sword that sharpens iron like clay. This Xiao body, which is all made of Hetian jade, is easy to attract the peeps of others. I know that once I attract a strong enemy, it will be difficult to keep this sword. By the way, I'll leave overnight today, trying to go early and return early. ”

Seeing Chen Yao's resolute attitude, Huang Qiong, who was familiar with her character, did not persuade again. Just hugged Chen Yao in his arms and said, "No, it's better to leave during the day tomorrow." It's really easier to go tonight, but there are so many eyeliners in our house. Disappearing into thin air is still the mother's most caring person, but it is easy to arouse the suspicion of others. ”

"Tomorrow during the day, I will walk generously from the main entrance. Going home to visit relatives is a fair and honest thing, where to go without going through the main gate? Sneaky, it's self-defeating. Didn't Joan Er buy a batch of horses? Tomorrow lead a horse and go out through the gate. ”

Speaking of this, Huang Qiong sighed slightly and said: "Sister Yao, it's Qiong'er who is incompetent, so tired that you have worked hard for Qiong'er for so many years, and you still can't enjoy the blessings, not to mention, you have to run around for Qiong'er, Qiong'er is sorry for you." When you go out alone, you must be careful when you do it. If something can't be done, come back immediately. ”

"Qiong'er doesn't have any big thoughts, I just hope that you will go and return safely. Qiong'er promises you that before you come back, Qiong'er will clean up the house, and welcome my sister Yao back in a beautiful way. ”

Huang Qiong's affectionate words, Chen Yao was moved and a little worried: "Qiong'er, don't worry, Sister Yao is still reluctant to let me Qiong'er, and I will definitely bring you a few helpers back safely." You are alone in the capital, and it is even more inconvenient to act. Don't rush anything, I'll talk about it when I get back. ”

Chen Yao's worry, Huang Qiong just smiled and shook her head, hugged the beauty in her arms and said, "Sister Yao, don't worry, Qiong'er knows what to do." But let's not talk about those disappointing things for now. Sister Yao is leaving tomorrow, and it will take many days to see you again. Sister Yao, you have to be responsible for feeding Qiong'er before you leave. Before the words fell, he had already kissed Chen Yao's small mouth.

The reluctance at the time of parting made both of them cherish this night very much. If it weren't for the fact that Chen Yao would be in a hurry the next day, Huang Qiong still restrained herself, and the two of them almost lingered all night. Even so, by the time Chen Yao reached the point where he couldn't bear the joy, it was already midnight.

In fact, Huang Qiong said that after Chen Yao returned, he would clean up the door of the mansion. But he also knows this matter, unless it is convenient for the prince to turn his face now, it must not be done overnight, and he should still figure it out slowly. After all, in his Hejian County Palace, except for the eunuchs and palace maids, as well as some of the slaves bought back by Chen Yao, the rest of the people are the prince's people.

These people are numerous and occupy most of the important positions. In a short period of time, it is difficult to clean it out completely. It should still be done step by step, gradually little by little. It is best to come without a trace, that is, to make the prince unable to catch any handles, and to purge the prince's people in the palace.

Although it is a little difficult to do, it can be done step by step after a long time. It's just that Huang Qiong didn't expect that this opportunity would come so quickly when she was not ready. I didn't expect that he and the prince would have a head-on conflict so quickly.

Often, many things happen by chance. The day after Huang Qiong reluctantly sent away, the woman disguised herself as a man and "went home to visit" Chen Yao. Before Huang Qiong calmed down, she pondered where to start. Among the people arranged by the prince to come in, someone actually took the initiative to send it to the door and handed the knife handle to Huang Qiong's hand.

And this person was not only inserted by the prince, but even among all the people installed by the prince, I am afraid that the status is not low. Otherwise, this person would not have been directly designated as the second manager, and he would be the external manager who was specifically responsible for the procurement of the government. If it weren't for the prince's henchmen, I'm afraid that this position with extremely rich oil and water would not be his turn.

These days, Huang Qiong has been pestering Chen Yao night and night, but it doesn't mean that other people in the mansion have to stay up, especially those who think they have some identity. After all, men and women have a great desire to eat and drink, and it is normal to stay in one place for a long time, especially in a place where there are more women, and have some thoughts in their hearts.

The foreign steward designated by the prince for Huang Qiong drank too much on the night of Chen Yao's departure, and he didn't know whether he was really guilty or pretending to be drunk, and insulted a maid. Although it did not succeed, it also caused a sensation in the house. This guy is a embryo on weekdays. I don't do anything all day long, either staring at the palace maid's breasts or staring at other people's butts.

But this guy came from the prince's side, although he is a little colorful, but he also knows some measure. Knowing that the palace maids in the palace are all given by the emperor, if he touches this, not to mention Huang Qiong, the obviously unfavored county king, even the prince may not be able to keep him.

He really didn't dare to use his hands and feet, and on weekdays, he just ate some tofu in words, just taking a small advantage. However, the palace maid didn't dare to touch it, but the maid that Chen Yao bought from Renyazi was targeted by him. It's just that Chen Yao is very strict in the house on weekdays, and he didn't find a chance.

It's not that he's afraid of Chen Yao, but this guy has other intentions at all. Although Chen Yao is over thirty years old, not only does her charm still exist, but her mature figure and temperament are not comparable to those little girls like green apples. This guy with a very big heart is not only targeting those rough maids, but even Chen Yao is targeted by him.

He had been patient before, but he didn't want to leave a bad impression on Chen Yao. Unlike those rough maids who he only wants to be used as playthings, this guy really wants to get both people and money. Because Chen Yao, who was directly ordered by Huang Qiong to be the internal manager, is not only beautiful, but also manages the property in the house.

If Chen Yao is there, he can really succeed. When the time comes, not only will you get a big beauty, but the key is that the internal and external stewards will collude. With the support of the prince behind him, he can cover the sky with one hand in this Hejian County Palace, has it not become his own place? When the king of Hejian County took office, wouldn't the large amount of money and property rewarded by the emperor end up to be his?

As for Chen Yao and Huang Qiong, what is the relationship between his own master, who is at least nominal? Now that he is dazzled by wealth and beauty, he can't take care of it at all. thinks that as long as he does his water grinding kung fu in place, a resentful girl who has been in the cold palace for a long time is not ready to be caught?

However, he also knew that the beauty in his heart had a close relationship with Huang Qiong, and he didn't know that Chen Yao, who looked gentle and virtuous on the outside, was actually a guy who could eat people at any time, and he didn't dare to use force against Chen Yao at the moment, for fear of ruining his plan. It's just that I am thinking about grinding kung fu with enough water, and I will simmer slowly over a low heat with rhetoric.

When Chen Yao was in the mansion before, this guy was afraid that he would do something and ruin his image in Chen Yao's heart, so he endured it all the time. Yesterday, Chen Yao left home and returned to his hometown to "visit relatives", this guy who has been peeping at for a long time. Thinking that the opportunity had come, he pretended to be crazy with the strength of wine, caught a maid and tried to force someone to get into the car.

As a result, I don't know if he is a heavy taste, or if he is really drunk and chose the wrong object. The rough maids that Chen Yao bought back from the human market were all from peasant families. These peasant children can say that they lack anything, but they need to help their parents in the field since they were young, and the only thing they lack is strength.

He was born thin and withered, but instead of succeeding, he was scratched like a blood gourd by the big-shouldered and round-waisted maid. Although this guy tried unsuccessfully to coerce people with the help of alcohol, it aroused the anger of the slaves who had bought them from the market.

Because the palace maid who was rewarded by the emperor from the palace maid, she was verbally harassed by this guy at most. So everyone thinks that this guy is pretending to be crazy with wine, otherwise why didn't those much more beautiful palace maids suffer from it? In addition to this guy, he also did a very disproportionate job in dealing with servants from different backgrounds.

Those slaves that Chen Yao bought from the human market, he found excuses to deduct other people's monthly money at every turn. And the people chosen by the prince are fully distributed every month. And the better positions in the palace are occupied by people appointed by the prince. It already caused the extreme dissatisfaction of those people, and it happened to send the knife handle to Huang Qiong, who was worried about killing chickens and monkeys, but couldn't find chickens.
