Chapter 14: The Contrast of the Lord (13)
At noon, after all the maidservants had eaten lunch, they began to do their own work.
And because Mo Jiuhua was the one who was named by the housekeeper to enter the Yuheng Pavilion, the little work that was originally assigned to her was removed.
Because of this, Mo Jiuhua has become the most idle one in the huge Qingwu Garden.
Therefore, she took advantage of the fact that everyone was busy and quietly slipped out and followed Mei Tong.
Mo Jiuhua followed behind Mei Tong like this, watching her sweep all the way to a corner of the palace under the pretext of sweeping the floor.
The nervous appearance made Mo Jiuhua, who was lurking in the dark and observing, raise his eyebrows.
Sure enough, as she expected, there was something wrong with this Mei Tong.
As early as the first time this inexplicable woman spoke out to provoke her, she found out that something was wrong with her.
Mei Tong's jealousy of her is real, she is really jealous of Mo Jiuhua's appearance.
But Mo Jiuhua found that when Mei Tong provoked her for the first time, the strong tension in her eyes was instantaneous, and it was not pretended.
Therefore, Mo Jiuhua concluded that although Mei Tong's hostility towards her was partly true, it was more intentional.
And from Mei Tong's obvious exposure of her own nervousness, it proves that her acting skills are really not good, so Mo Jiuhua concluded that there must be someone behind Mei Tong's instructions.
In order to find out the true identity and purpose of Mei Tong and the person behind her, Mo Jiuhua secretly tried to find a way to follow.
At this time, Mei Tong nervously observed the surroundings, and when he found that there was no one, he put down the broom in his hand, and then gestured a few times to the air, as if he was transmitting a signal or summoning someone.
Sure enough, a moment later, a slender figure dressed in black appeared directly in front of Mei Tong.
This person was masked and couldn't see his face clearly, but with the eyes she exposed and the hands hanging by her side, Mo Jiuhua could tell that it was a woman.
Mo Jiuhua was calm, and the next second he heard the conversation between the woman in black and Mei Tong: "...... What are you looking for me? If I'm not mistaken, today is your first day in the palace, right? ”
Mei Tong's slightly flustered voice sounded: "I...... Can I stop doing this task? I ......"
The woman in black's tone froze: "Oh? Why? What happened? ”
"I, I ......"
Mei Tong stammered for a long time, swallowed his saliva, and then said even more panickedly: "I seem to have messed up ......"
As he spoke, Mei Tong told him about himself and Mo Jiuhua.
Mo Jiuhua, who was hidden in the shadows, raised his eyebrows, and then continued to listen.
"I was almost strangled to death by that Ah Jiu, she was so terrible, so I didn't want to stay, I was afraid of ......"
As soon as Mei Tong's words fell, the woman in black was completely furious, and scolded her: "Okay, you are a waste who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures!" ”
"Let you find a way to sneak up on the Jade King and assassinate him, who let you directly confront other servants?!"
The more she talked, the more angry she became, and the woman in black raised her hand and slapped Mei Tong heavily: "If it weren't for that damn Jiuhua who refused his master's business, how could he pick such a stupid pig waste like you to do such a task!" ”
Mo Jiuhua in the shadows understood now.
The master of this woman in black is probably the person who hired the original owner to assassinate the Jade King in the plot.
I didn't expect to be caught by her so soon......
A smile gradually appeared in Mo Jiuhua's eyes, very good.
Mei Tong was severely taught a lesson by the woman in black, and after repeatedly telling him not to mess around, he returned to Qingwuyuan in embarrassment.
The woman in black stood there with anger in her eyes for a moment before turning to leave.
Seeing this, Mo Jiuhua quickly followed.
