Chapter 172: Camellias

Seeing Yu Yao let go of this idea, Ju Bian breathed a sigh of relief.

He can't let Yu Yao be in any more danger, even if he can't protect her now, he can at least stop her from going out. At that time, when Yu Yao said, "I want to go to Hongyuan in person", Ju Bian objected with both hands and feet, and let Yu Yao go to Hongyuan's heavily guarded place alone, which was a crazy idea.

But if Huaicheng or other guards are allowed to go, it will be uneasy for them, Yuyao does not have a guard who can be fully trusted, Huaicheng was given to her by Xiao Yan after she had the princess's mansion, and only the personal maid in the entire mansion was used by Princess Yongxing from childhood to adulthood. If the guards are caught or bribed, the matter is dangerous.

Ju Bian also thought about going by himself, but if Gao Yun brought a maid in, Hongyuan's guards would relax their vigilance, and if they let a handsome young man in, saying that he was Gao Yun's little servant, it was really convincing.

So Yu Yao insisted on going alone. She was also afraid of danger, but she had to do it.

Later, under Yu Yao's persuasion, there was a plan to transfer the Hongyuan guards away, and Ju Bian had to agree, at least in this plan, Ju Bian could also do his part. And it was raining again that day, as long as Yu Yao was careful, all this would not be too difficult, because Xiao Xuande would not have thought that the place where the weapons were hidden would be targeted by people for a while.

It wasn't until Ju Bian finally saw that Yu Yao had come back well that he let go of his heart that had been hanging all night.

"So you're not allowed to go out again tonight, so stay in the mansion." Ju Bian's tone was firm.

Yu Yao nodded, agreeing with his statement, she asked, "What about Dong Ling?" ”

Now that she is locked up in the firewood room, she has admitted that the previous news was all from her. However, how did you find out that she had a problem in advance? ”

"It's simple." Yu Yao said: "She was originally the maid by my side, but she has a cowardly personality, and she always didn't dare to approach me in the past. Recently, I've noticed that she's coming to the dormitory more and more often, and I've been paying attention to her. ”

Yu Yao continued: "At first, I thought it was this girl who had become cheerful, until one time when she was changing my clothes, I saw her jade bracelet. As a subordinate, you will not bring a jade bracelet, it is inconvenient to do things, and it is easy to break the bracelet. A big girl like Xia Qiao usually brings some gold and silver jewelry. ”

"I was very puzzled at the time, thinking that the girl who came to Dongling should have liked it very much, and she had only worn it for a few days. I didn't see her wear it since, but the one time I saw it was enough, and I wondered where she got such a precious jade bracelet that was not practical for her. Yu Yao paused and said, "So far, it has been proved that my suspicions are right." ”

After listening to Yu Yao's words, Ju Bian fell into deep thought. A year has passed, and Yu Yao, who didn't know anything about the affairs of the house and asked him to help take care of it, has gradually become different. I still remember when she came to him last year, although she maintained the majesty of the princess on the surface, in fact, he could see the uneasiness and nervousness hidden behind her, and she was relieved until he agreed to help her.

Now Yu Yao, who is sitting in front of her, only wears a simple dress after bathing, without decoration, and has a plain face, but she can't stop her more and more calm mind, like the cluster of camellia in the corner of his Luo Xiju, the seeds that float at random have gradually taken root and bloomed the most brilliant flowers.

The last time Princess Lin'an went to Luo Xiju, I asked him.

"How did you leave this camellia? You must know that camellia does not bloom in spring and summer, and it still grows here, so it is generally removed as a weed. ”

Ju Bian said casually: "I felt that it was not troublesome to water every day, so I stayed, who knew that it would bloom." ”

In fact, what he didn't say was that he was reluctant to get rid of it, a seed that floated from nowhere, even if he didn't know anything about the environment, was still trying to germinate, he wanted to see how tenacious the vitality of this pearl "weed" was, and finally in the harsh winter, it actually bloomed.
