Chapter 36: Newcomer Celadon
Li Xiangsi had just returned to the East Courtyard, and saw that the East Courtyard was indeed as Mo Nanchen said, with complete items, and the weeds in the East Courtyard were also removed, and the pond water was attached, the rockery was brought in, and hibiscus flowers were planted.
Qing Li looked at it and couldn't help but exclaim: "Miss, when did our East Courtyard become so good?" ”
It's really good.
The corners of Li Xiangsi's lips were slightly hooked, and he said, "It's his arrangement." ”
Qing Li said happily: "The prince can be regarded as enlightened, and he knows how to please the young lady." ”
She was a little stunned, she didn't think that Mo Nanchen's intentions were for her, she couldn't live in his house for a long time, and Ning Wan wouldn't agree, so he wanted his children to live well and sleep well, and he would definitely let people clean up here, so that his children could grow up in a good environment from an early age.
Pity......
Li Xiangsi stroked her stomach, which was still flat, and as soon as she put her clothes in the wardrobe and took care of them, she saw Ning Wan stepping into the door of the east courtyard from the window.
She closed the cabinet door and walked out of the room, Qing Li also stood outside the door, watching Ning Wan come to them.
"Sister, the prince asked you and your maid to go to the door of the main hall, there is something wrong." After Ning Wan finished speaking, she left the two who looked at each other and turned to leave.
Li Xiangsi's eyebrows frowned slightly, just now after Mo Nanchen asked her, why do you want her to go to the door of the main hall to find him now?
"How's it going with what I've asked you to do?" Li Xiangsi asked.
Qing Li said: "Everything is in order, that person has already infiltrated the maids of the Mowang Mansion." Miss, please rest assured, that person is voluntary, and Qingli also promised that in case of an accident, we will make a large amount of compensation to her poor parents. ”
Li Xiangsi nodded, "That's the case...... Let's go. Let's see what he's up to. ”
Li Xiangsi straightened her clothes, she walked on the way to the main hall, and in a trance she seemed to see a woman with a back that was very similar to her, but in a blink of an eye, she disappeared.
She rubbed her temples and said secretly: I'm afraid I didn't sleep well and hallucinated.
In front of the door of the main hall, there were many maids gathered, all of them lowered their heads slightly, and they didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of being reprimanded by Mo Nanchen.
Although in Li Xiangsi's eyes, Mo Nanchen has nothing to fear for her, but in their eyes, Mo Nanchen can control their life and death with a single word.
The consequences of different identities and different backgrounds.
When Mo Nanchen saw Li Xiangsi coming, he asked a person to bring a chair and put it in front of those maids, beckoning for Li Xiangsi to sit.
"Come and show the princess today how the king handles affairs." He sat down with his sleeves flicked up, flanked by Ning Wan and Li Xiangsi.
Li Xiangsi raised her eyes and saw a girl with her head bowed and a double bun, and she was very unfamiliar with that maid.
She knows the faces of many maids in the house, and that maid is not unexpected, it is the stand-in that Qingli found for her.
"Do you have any maids who know martial arts? Be honest! Mo Nanchen raised his voice.
No one squeaked.
There was silence.
"Whoever speaks, he shall be rewarded with two taels of gold; Or that person automatically stood up and rewarded her parents with five taels of gold. Mo Nanchen's hands were crossed and staggered, he cocked Erlang's legs, and looked at the black maids in front of him.
Suddenly, the crowd seemed to explode, they discussed left and right, and finally looked at the new maid today.
Finally, a maid walked out of the crowd, she knelt in front of Mo Nanchen, she supported the ground with her hands, put her head on the ground, and said, "Lord Wang, it was the slave who did it." ”
Mo Nanchen raised his eyebrows, "Raise your head." ”
She slowly raised her head, and there was no glimmer of light in her eyes, as if her eyes were dead.
"What's your name?" Li Xiangsi asked.
She looked at Li Xiangsi and replied, "Back to the princess, the slave is called celadon." ”
Li Xiangsi looked her up and down, and suddenly felt that Qingli was very discerning, because this woman's body shape could be said to be exactly the same as her, more than similar.
"You talk nonsense!"
A maid immediately stood out in the crowd, she pointed angrily at the back of the celadon, and her body trembled with anger.
Mo Nanchen suddenly aroused interest, "Oh? Tell me about it? How did she talk nonsense? ”
The maid knelt on the ground and said, "This maid is new today, how could she sneak into the library last night!" That's! ”
Celadon glanced at her, and said unhurriedly: "The slave maid did just come today, but the slave maid is indeed full of martial arts, and I have long heard that the Mowangfu Library has the most complete collection of books, and it is not difficult for the slave to sneak into the Mowangfu." ”
Li Xiangsi said leisurely: "Then why did you come to the Mowang Mansion today as a new maid." ”
Celadon looked at Li Xiangsi and said, "Because the slave maid has a purpose, if she is favored by Lord Mo, your parents will be rich and prosperous all your life." And the slave thought that she would not be discovered, because the slave had already done it carefully. ”
She bit her lower lip with a look of remorse.
Extremely realistic.
Li Xiangsi couldn't help but silently praise the person Qing Li was looking for.
If she hadn't done it, she would have thought that she was the one who infiltrated the library last night and not her.
"You said you know martial arts, then show us martial arts." Mo Nanchen Road.
Then he asked one of the guards of the library to come into play, and after he made a gesture towards the celadon, he said, "Offended." ”
Celadon stood up, and at the same time returned a salute, looking at the posture of the man who found an attack on her, she was unmoved, until his fist was about to touch her body, only to see Celadon with one hand behind his back, the other hand to stop his fist, turn around and dodge, and then slash at the back of his neck with a palm.
The man staggered under his feet, barely steadied himself, and as soon as he turned around, he saw that Celadon had already slashed his leg at the top of his head.
"Peng" sounded, I saw him kneeling at the feet of Celadon, and Celadon patted the non-existent dust on his trouser leg, and continued to kneel in front of Mo Nanchen, saying: "As the prince can see, the slave and maid can do martial arts, so it is indeed the slave and maid who sneaked into the library pavilion, and I hope that the prince will not punish the other sisters, and everything will be borne by the slave and maid." ”
Li Xiangsi dragged her chin with her hand, and she was a little surprised at Celadon's martial arts.
Let Qing Li find a substitute for the dead ghost casually, but I didn't expect this substitute ghost to be able to subdue that person with one hand.
She had to admire Qingli's ability to find people.
Mo Nanchen looked at that person, beckoned the people on the side to drag him down, he looked at the celadon and said, "Your martial arts are not bad, where did you learn from?" ”
Celadon said: "No master, everything is self-taught." ”
Mo Nanchen smiled: "So? In this way, if you break into my library, this king will not care about you, you will join the command of this king, and this king will ensure the stability of your family throughout their lives, so that they will not have to worry about food and clothing, will you do this deal? ”
This deal, it can be said that the deal proposed by Mo Nanchen is very in line with Celadon intentions, so that she is willing to come out to be a substitute for her as a dead ghost, all because of her old, weak, sick and disabled family, who need to rely on her to feed.
Celadon just thought lightly, then nodded in agreement, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”
