Chapter 112: The Eunuch's Baby
Xiao Li Zi walked out of the big courtyard of the imperial kitchen with Ye Shaolong in a muffled voice, Ye Shaolong was in a hurry when he came the day before yesterday, and he didn't pay attention to the scenery along the way. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although this will be the same as Xiao Lizi, he still looks back and forth at the surrounding environment, and by the way, he recognizes the way. It's a pity that there are all roads around this palace, and the courtyards are also accessible in all directions.
Ye Shaolong could still recognize the way at first, but in less than half a pillar of incense, he was completely confused. However, Xiao Lizi still walked forward, and seemed to be very familiar with this place.
The two walked forward for about an hour, and Xiao Li Zi stopped in front of a quiet courtyard, talked to the guard at the door, and then entered directly with Ye Shaolong.
Walking through a small garden and coming to the front of the main house in the courtyard, Xiao Li Zi pulled Ye Shaolong to kneel in front of the house and said loudly: "The imperial chef Xiao Li Zi brings breakfast to Lafayette." ”
Ye Shaolong didn't notice for a while that he was pulled by Xiao Lizi to kneel on the ground, and a trace of displeasure flashed on his face. Ye Shaolong's soul has been worn for so long, and he is very unhappy with this rule of kneeling at every turn.
The door of the main house was silently opened, and an old shrill voice came: "Come in!" ”
"Chirp ......"
After Xiao Lizi responded loudly, he got up and lifted the food box, bent down and slowly walked into the door. Ye Shaolong learned from him in a way and followed closely behind him.
The light in the room was much darker than outside, and Ye Shaolong was a little uncomfortable the moment he entered the door, and he wanted to sneak a peek at what Lafayette looked like. But he was soon disappointed, and when he entered the door was a living room, not a bedroom, and Lafayette did not seem to have gotten out of bed.
In the living room was an old eunuch with a wrinkled face, staring at the two of them with a pair of triangular eyes. Xiao Lizi carefully put the food box on the dining table in the side hall, turned around and knelt down to the old eunuch and said, "Father-in-law Ding, is this breakfast set out now?" ”
"Excuse me, Lafayette hasn't gotten up yet, so let's put it there first." When the old eunuch, that is, Gonggong Ding, spoke, his eyes kept staring at Ye Shaolong.
Judging from the waist card hanging from Ye Shaolong's waist, it is called Xiao Xizi, but he remembers that this Xiao Xizi does not look like this. Father-in-law Ding was suspicious at this time!
"Wow."
When Xiao Lizi got up, he also noticed that Gonggong Ding's expression was wrong, and when he thought that Ye Shaolong was replacing Xiao Xizi, he couldn't help but secretly exclaim: "Could it be that Gonggong Ding has seen through Xiao Xizi's identity?" ”
Xiao Lizi suddenly panicked, but fortunately, Father-in-law Ding also said something for Zeng, Xiao Lizi hurriedly retreated, and pulled Ye Shaolong to go out of the house.
As soon as the two of them came to the door, they didn't have time to step out of the door, when they heard Gonggong Ding suddenly shout: "Wait, you guys come back." ”
Ye Shaolong and Xiao Li Zi exchanged a look, and they both saw a trace of worry in each other's eyes. Obviously, what did this Ding Gonggong find?
The two hesitated a little at the door, and came to Gonggong Ding's side according to his words, who once again cast his eyes on Ye Shaolong's body, and said coldly: "Xiao Xizi." ”
Ye Shaolong hadn't fully substituted for this new identity for a while, and he hadn't reacted to Ding's father-in-law's call. Xiao Li Zi secretly said that it was not good, and quickly stabbed Ye Shaolong quietly.
At this moment, Ye Shaolong finally reacted, and quickly knelt on one leg to learn what Xiao Li Zi had just done and responded loudly: "The slave is here." ”
Gonggong Ding sneered, raised his head and shouted outside: "Someone! ”
Four guards with knives at the door immediately poured into the room: "What do you have to say to Gonggong Ding?" ”
"Tie him up." Father-in-law Ding drank cold again.
Ye Shaolong's face changed greatly, obviously this father-in-law Ding, who was about to become old, had seen through his identity. Ye Shaolong's eyes quickly glanced at the bad situation in the house, and he had already calculated how to deal with the sudden crisis in front of him.
If he did it, it would obviously be harmful in this deep palace compound, plus he was not familiar with the terrain. Ye Shaolong was quickly turning his thoughts in his heart, but those guards had already pressed him to the ground, and a bright big knife was on his neck.
Father-in-law Ding looked at Ye Shaolong coldly: "The miscellaneous family remembers that Xiao Xizi is not like this, who are you talking about it!" ”
It happened too suddenly, Ye Shaolong didn't have time to think about it at all, and after a little hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "My father-in-law doesn't know anything, the slave is indeed not Xiaoxizi." The little Xizi had just died of illness the day before yesterday, and the slave had just entered the palace, and the imperial kitchen was short of manpower, so he pulled the slave to take the position of the little Xizi. ”
This is a half-truth, Ye Shaolong is not afraid of Ding's father-in-law to investigate, he is absolutely sure that the father-in-law will not dare to reveal his true identity. On the contrary, he has to hide it for himself, otherwise if he has an accident, his father-in-law will not be able to escape responsibility.
In the palace, it was not uncommon for this situation to be like what Ye Shaolong said, and after hearing this, Gonggong Ding was also completely angry, and he was silent for a moment, and waved his hand to let the four guards retreat.
Then he said to Ye Shaolong: "What you just said, I will order someone to go and find out, if you dare to cut off your dog's head for half a sentence, retreat!" ”
"Wow."
Ye Shaolong and Xiao Li Zi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly got up and walked out of the house. Gonggong Ding looked coldly at the backs of the two leaving, and Shi Shiran came to the dining table in the side hall to check the breakfast in person.
The two of them exited Lafayette's courtyard and returned to the corridor, Xiao Lizi quickly swept around, and found that there was no one else, so he whispered: "I was scared to death just now." ”
Ye Shaolong squinted his eyes and said with a look of fear to the little plum: "Who is that father-in-law Ding, who seems to have a lot of power?" ”
Hearing Ye Shaolong ask about Gonggong Ding, a look of fear flashed on Xiao Lizi's face, and he looked around again before lowering his voice and said, "This Gonggong Ding is the chief manager of the palace, and I saw his baby in the treasure room when I was clean." The treasures of the little father-in-law like us are hung on the beams of the house with ropes, while the father-in-law of Ding is offered with a god seat, and someone specially incense it in the morning, noon and evening. ”
Xiao Li Zi saw that Ye Shaolong didn't seem to understand, and then explained: "The higher the baby hangs in the treasure room, the higher the status in the palace, you should understand this, right?" And how tall is your baby, mine is now level two, as far as I know, the highest is level ten, and like Gonggong Ding is a super existence, so there is a special god position for you. ”
Ye Shaolong was asked about private matters, he really didn't know that the eunuch still had such secrets, if it wasn't for what Xiao Li Zi said just now, how could he know this.
"Me? I don't know, I was taken down to recuperate after the cleansing at that time, and I still don't know where my baby is? Ye Shaolong casually pulled it and fooled it over.
