Chapter Twenty-Seven: Daily Life in the Palace

Hu Duozi felt a deep sense of fear rise in his heart, and even became disheartened: "Your Excellency, please give me orders, Hu Mou will do his best to help to show his loyalty!"

The masked man said coldly, "It has nothing to do with me whether you are loyal or not, but you must remember that your life has a lot to do with it!" ”

Hu Duozi replied "yes".

I saw two chess pieces flying out of the masked man's hands and hitting Hu Duozi's two arms respectively.

Hu Duozi only felt that his arm instantly recovered, and he moved a few times in surprise, and his sense of awe arose spontaneously.

The masked man took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, and the first one was a beautiful woman, with a graceful body and charming eyebrows.

"Have you ever seen this woman?"

Hu Duozi's eyes flashed with amazement, and he shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it." ”

The masked man stared into his eyes: "Are you sure you've never seen it?" ”

Hu Duozi was frightened and said firmly: "Sure! If I have seen such beauties, I will never forget them! ”

The masked man snorted coldly, quickly put away the scroll, and opened another piece of paper, on which was painted a kind old woman: "This old woman, have you seen it?" ”

Hu Duozi only glanced at it, and then exclaimed, "Isn't this the mother-in-law of the Wang family?" ”

The masked man turned out another image of an old woman: "Have you ever seen this person?" ”

Hu Duozi looked at it carefully for a long time, and shook his head affirmatively: "I haven't seen it." ”

After reading all the portraits, Hu Duozi only recognized Mama Wang.

The mask said: "Tell me in detail about how you met Mama Wang." ”

"You mean Granny Wang?" Hu Duozi said cautiously, seeing that the other party's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, he was so frightened that he couldn't help but scold himself for being stupid, and hurriedly said, "The little one is stupid!" ”

He tried to recall the scene of the first time he saw Mama Wang five years ago, and talked intermittently.

Long.

He said: "My lord, this is everything that has happened since the villain and this Wang Mama first met, and I swear that everything I say is true. ”

The man in black returned, and the masked man took the teacup and placed it on the stone table in front of Hu Duozi.

He took out a paper bag from his bosom and opened it, with some brown powder in it.

The masked said: "Do you recognize these powders?" ”

Hu Duozi leaned over and looked at it, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Lord Hui, these are the medicines I prescribed to the master of the Wang family, only, they are just some tonic to calm the nerves." ”

The masked man sneered: "You take a closer look, these are really the medicines you prescribed?" ”

Hu Duozi twisted a little with his hand, put it in his mouth and tasted it: "My lord, this is indeed a villain... Wait, it seems that a few more herbs have been added to this! ”

The masked man seemed to have the answer he wanted, and instead of asking, he said, "When you go back, write down all the goods you have for Mama Wang, and then pick out some of each and send them to me!" In addition, every time I meet with Mama Wang in the future, I have to go through my instructions first, and then report to me afterwards. ”

Hu Duozi only promised: "Yes! The villain will go back and do it! ”

He thought about it, and asked smartly: "Do you need a villain, write a copy of the prescription for the Wang family?" ”

Seeing that the other party didn't pay attention, Hu Duozi asked again: "My lord, how can the villain contact you?" ”

"Someone will contact you then!"

Hu Duozi's heart tightened, and he said stubbornly: "The villain's life is in the hands of adults, I hope you can keep your promise and let the villain leave safely with his family afterwards!" ”

The masked man sneered, "Do you have any other way to go now?" But don't worry, I've always done what I said! ”

A powerful kingly momentum emanated from him.

Hu Duozi felt that his breathing had become depressed, and he complained bitterly in his heart, and secretly scolded himself for talking too much.

The man in black had received the cue, blindfolded him again, and led him out.

After they left.

The silver-masked man suddenly stared into the darkness and said, "Arrange another assassination to eliminate his last concerns!" ”

"Yes!"

A black shadow teleported in front of him, bowing in response.

Let's say, early in the morning.

In the dream, Xiaoguo was eating a full banquet with her grandfather, and then the grandfather next to her somehow became Xiaoyu, and she was asking Xiaoyu: "How did you come to this world?" ”

I heard a young voice in my ear ask, "Which world?" ”

It was Xiaobai's voice, and Xiaoguo struggled to open his eyes a slit.

"Queen Mother, what are you eating this morning?"

Xiaoguo couldn't refuse this kind of shining and expectant eyes, and because of the matter of stealing sweet potatoes, she was a little weak, she overcame sleepiness, and bravely got up from the bed with two big eye circles.

Getting up, she was surprised to find that the Empress Dowager was standing behind Xiaobai with a smile!

Xiaoguo made a shredded chicken porridge, baked some potato cakes, fried cabbage and bamboo shoots, mixed a plate of beef, and fried a few egg cakes.

After eating a few bites indiscriminately, she left the Empress Dowager and Xiaobai, who were eating, and sent someone to call Lu Ru, and explained some things about the decoration of the hundred gardens, and went back to the room to make up for sleep under the pretext of having a headache.

When Xiaoguo was full of sleep and the sun had risen in the sky, she walked out dressed and refreshed.

The Empress Dowager was lying on a rattan chair under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, and a little palace maid knelt beside her, giving her a beating of her legs.

Xiaobai had returned from the school, and he was sitting not far from her, he stretched his head and leaned on the brocade chair, looking at Xiaoguo's bedroom from time to time.

Seeing Xiaoguo come out, he jumped up from the brocade chair excitedly.

"Mother, you've finally woken up!"

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she also got up: "Empress Dowager, what are we going to eat at noon?" ”

Xiaoguo was speechless: "..."

When night fell again, Xiaoguo couldn't wait to be excited, and she didn't look outside from time to time.

In the dead of night, she put on her bag again and went straight to the place where she first met "Xiaoyu".

It's a pity that she wandered around the neighborhood for a long time, and Xiaoyu didn't appear again.

Disillusioned, she came to Merlin alone, and she picked up some dead branches and made a bonfire, took out the pickled chicken from the package, and roasted it on the fire.

When the tempting aroma of roast chicken slowly came out, her mood also improved, and she hummed a little tune softly.

Not far away, Li Yi leaned on the trunk of a tree, silently looking at her who was eating with relish, with a complicated look in his eyes.

Since that night, Xiaoguo has never looked for "Xiaoyu", nor has she deliberately searched for a route out of the palace at night, because she has managed to get a detailed map of the palace.

She spent some time researching a route from the map that could avoid patrolling palace attendants, but recently due to the Hundred Flowers Society, she didn't have time to practice it.

Li Yi returned to the house that night, and he was "sick" again, unable to sleep at night, and the phantoms overlapped, but no one knew about this illness except himself.

Only Uncle Huang, the housekeeper of Dingwang's Mansion, found a clue, and he was surprised to find that Dingwang always pushes away everything at dusk and waits for something in front of the window on time!
