Jiang Guifei's difficult service is well-known in the entire Forbidden City, but Cao Alcohol can win her favor, in addition to being able to talk and do things, there is also one point that Cao Alcohol is very handsome.

His beauty is also different from the beauty of ordinary men, perhaps because he lost his male characteristics after purifying, Cao Alcohol's delicate face is more inclined to the softness of women but retains the characteristics of men's angular facial features, a pair of slender eyes often with careless casualness and arrogance, if he looks at you seriously, even the stars in the sky will be taken off for him.

That's what the concubine is good about, she especially likes to see him kneeling on the ground and having to submit to power and full of ambition.

"Okay, the palace is tired, let's get out with your people." Jiang Guifei yawned, and immediately a palace maid covered her with a blanket.

"The minister retired."

Cao Alcohol withdrew from the veil on his knees, and then he turned to his feet, flattening his clothes without a trace.

Jiang Banxia, who was standing outside the veil, immediately followed Cao Yu's footsteps, she put her eyes at her feet, and looked low and pleasing to the eyes.

provoked Cao Yu to look at her twice.

An orphan girl who grew up in a remote area can quickly adapt in the palace with strict dignity and humility, and achieve the realm of 'seeing the nose and nose and the heart', which shows that her understanding is not ordinarily high.

Cao Alcohol sat in the sedan chair and clasped his hands together and said to the attendant who carried the sedan chair: "Go back to the East Factory." ”

The Dongji Factory occupies a large position in the north of Dong'anmen, and there is an endless stream of Dongchang fans who come to the door, each wearing dark brown armor, white boots and hats, and carrying a black sheath short knife around his waist.

When they saw Cao Alcohol's frame, they stopped to say hello.

The little eunuch who was leading the horse at the door opened the curtain with a smile on his face, and then someone lay on the ground as a human stool.

Jiang Banxia stepped forward half a step to help, Cao Ol stepped on the human stool and stepped out of the carriage, his expression was gloomy, without a trace of kindness at Jiang Guifei's place, he said: "Ask Fei Qianhu to come to the study to discuss matters." ”

The people below immediately responded.

The ground cage in the study was burning hot, and as soon as he entered the house, the hot air came to the shop, Cao Alcohol took off the cloak on his body and drank a cup of hot tea under the service of the little eunuch before sitting in front of the soft collapse.

He picked up a dossier on the table, glanced at it, and then set his eyes on Jiang Banxia, who was standing on one side and holding his breath.

"Father Jiang Guangping?"

"It's my father." Jiang Banxia replied.

"Do you know why our family went to Huaiyin that day?" Cao Alcohol put down the file in his hand, and he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Jiang Banxia lowered her gaze, and she said respectfully: "Banxia doesn't know why my godfather went to Huaiyin that day. ”

In fact, she already had the answer in her heart, Cao Alcohol, who suddenly appeared when she was almost desperate that day, was like a god, but if she thought about it carefully, would anyone be so coincidental?

What's more, Cao Alcohol, as the governor of Dongchang, is mainly responsible for the affairs of Kyoto, unless there is an edict that he cannot leave Kyoto for half a step...

Thinking of this, Jiang Banxia sighed in his heart, there was another situation, that is, Cao Yu left the imperial capital without permission!

The matter that can make Cao Yu leave the imperial capital without permission is for him... It must be very important, so important that he has to do it himself.

"You are a smart child, I am afraid that I already have the answer in my heart, and our family will not be confused with you, so I spread it out today." Cao Yu said coldly: "Your father served as a hundred households in Kyoto during the Shunde period, why do you think he would succumb to the small Huaiyin County and be an inconspicuous little flag?" ”

Cao Yu's words were like a heavy punch in the chest, Jiang Banxia's mind was in a mess for a while, and every bit of her relationship with her father came to mind.

From her father's telling her and her brother about the old news of Kyoto, to receiving New Year's greetings from Kyoto every year, to the extent to which he knew all the secrets of the old imperial palace, she should have thought that her father's identity was not as simple as what she saw in front of her.

"Your father's death was more than just an accident." Cao Yu said meaningfully: "If you want to take revenge, you are not qualified at all now." ”

Jiang Banxia immediately understood the meaning of Cao Yu's words, he was able to say what he said just now and mention her father's past, just to provoke her to respond.

According to ordinary people's thinking, they must have been misled by Cao Alcohol at this time, and the only thing left in their eyes was to avenge their father, but Jiang Banxia didn't, she was very calm, just like when she was strangled to death by her mother, she didn't shout.

She followed Cao Alcohol's words and said tentatively: "Please godfather, make it clear!" ”

"Jiang Guangping had a friend Lu Cheng when he was in Kyoto." Cao Ol was very satisfied with Jiang Banxia's attitude, and it was really effortless to talk to a smart person: "Our family wants you to recognize him." ”

"Godfather?" Jiang Banxia pretended not to know what he meant.

"Since you think I'm my godfather, I can't let you get into danger, follow our family, you can only serve water and tea, and recognize Lu Cheng, he will arrange a good way out for you." Cao Alcohol said it well, as if he was planning for Jiang Banxia everywhere

But Jiang Banxia knew in her heart that Cao Yu was using her to get close to Lu Cheng, and I was afraid that her father's friend was now standing in an extraordinary position.

"It's all up to my godfather." Although Jiang Banxia thought so in her heart, she was obedient and soft on the surface, just like Cao Yu was really her father.

When Fei Qianhu came, Jiang Banxia and Cao Yu had been chatting for a while.

She had to admit that Cao Alcohol, a eunuch, was really well-informed and admirable.

"Overseer." Fei Qianhu clasped his fists and saluted.

"Fila, can we arrange what we asked you to arrange?" Cao Alcohol asked.

"Brothers, you're done." Fila handed over the note in his hand: "This is the list of people on duty in the West Factory recently. ”

Cao Alcohol took the note and glanced at it and said, "Very well done." ”

He explained some details to Fei Qianhu in detail, and the process did not shy away from Jiang Banxia at all, and he had the posture of treating her as his own.

They didn't shy away from it, Jiang Banxia also listened happily, she was almost black-eyed when she first came to Kyoto, except for the eunuchs around Cao Yu.

Even now, I don't know what kind of person Lu Cheng is the person she is about to contact.

So she listened very carefully, and the news was immediately broken down and digested when it entered her mind.

Suddenly, there was a frolicking sound outside the study, and I heard Cao Xi shouting in a sharp voice: "Godfather! My son has a greeting for you! ”

In the study, Cao Yu pinched his brows, raised his eyes, and motioned for Jiang Banxia to call Cao Xi in.

Cao Xineng was like a fish in water in the palace of the concubine, all thanks to his honey-smeared mouth, and seeing Jiang Banxia's affection: "Good sister, it was you who came to welcome me, which really flattered me." ”

Jiang Banxia nodded and motioned for Cao Xi to follow her in.

As soon as the curtain was opened just now, she saw Cao Xi holding a raccoon slave with copper coin patterns in her arms, a small coffee-colored nose, round eyes, and ears erected, looking around alertly.

"What, this point is not in the palace to serve the concubine, what are you doing here in our house?" Cao Ol put down the pen in his hand and asked.

Cao Xi pushed the raccoon slave in his arms forward: "Godson, this is on the order of the noble concubine to give a reward to the godfather." ”

The raccoon slave covered with copper coin patterns meowed, and the little one walked and swayed, and Cao Yu, who looked at it, frowned.

He turned his head to Jiang Banxia and said, "The raccoon slave rewarded by the concubine is so good to give birth to." ”

"Yes, godfather." Jiang Banxia scooped up the raccoon slave from the ground and put it into his arms, still standing back in place, keeping the posture just now, motionless, and lowering his eyebrows to the extreme.
