Chapter 22: Two Red Carp

"But lord, didn't the princess say last time that she would die in the palace if she died? The slave looked, she refused to leave. Li Mo thought for a while and said.

"You have what you think." Xiao Liyan said as he picked up the chess pieces and planned to continue playing chess.

Li Mo wanted to cry without tears when he heard this.

Lord Wang, if you want to reconcile, how can you let the slave think about it?

It's going to be a dead man!

Or, the next time the princess is with her old lover, he will bring a group of people to push the door in and catch the adulterer?

No, no, the princess is the daughter of the prince's uncle, the princess's loss of face is equal to the loss of face for the uncle and their family, what if the prince's grandmother is angry to death?

Of course, it is their prince who is the most humiliating.

The prince is so wise and powerful, he can't let outsiders know that the princess has an old lover.

What to do?

"There's someone out there."

Just as Li Mo was about to ask, Xiao Liyan's voice sounded.

Li Mo also heard movement outside, he hurriedly arrived at the door, and was about to push the door open to take a look, but a very soft voice came from outside.

"The slave has something to ask to see the prince."

"Lord Wang." Li Mo turned his head to look at his master.

"Let him in." Xiao Liyan said in a low voice.

At this hour, someone came to see him, there must be something important, although the eunuch did not report to his family and made it clear which palace he was a slave, Xiao Liyan didn't care much.

He and Li Mo are both very skilled, there are guards guarding outside the imperial garden, and there is a team of guards patrolling inside, as long as they shout, some people will come, so they are not afraid of someone assassinating.

After Li Mo opened it, Ping'an hurriedly entered the house and knelt down to salute: "The slave is the eunuch of Gyeongbokgung Palace, and he came to meet the prince on the order of our royal daughter Ruan. ”

"Imperial Maiden Ruan." Xiao Liyan pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then remembered who this eunuch was talking about.

Isn't it the little girl who said the emperor couldn't do it? It's really impressive!

"Well, what's the matter with her looking for this king?" Xiao Liyan asked in a low voice.

Ping An hurriedly told Xiao Liyan about the matter.

"Nonsense." Xiao Liyan's face changed when he heard this, and he quickly stood up and walked out.

"Where are you going, lord?" Li Mo shouted and chased after him.

Ruan Lingwei had been listening to the movement outside the Imperial Garden, and in order to prevent being seen by the guards guarding the door, she and Yun Shen hid far away.

"Miss, the gate of the Imperial Garden is open." Yun Shen said in a low voice.

Ruan Lingwei shook her head when she heard this, and after a while, she saw Xiao Liyan coming out of it.

"It's done, Qing Zhaoyi can't die." Ruan Lingwei breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

"Let's go back and take peace." Yun Shen said with a smile.

"Well, go back." Ruan Lingwei smiled and hurriedly took Yun Shen back.

Ping'an had already come back from the wall, and was talking to Yun Shu and them, when he saw Ruan Lingwei coming in, he hurriedly saluted.

"The minion greets the maiden."

"Get up, hard work." Ruan Lingwei said with a smile, but found that Ping'an was actually carrying two red carp in his hands.

"This is ......," Ruan Lingwei looked at Ping An with a look of surprise.

I didn't see it, this little eunuch is bold enough, doesn't it mean that if you steal the carp in the imperial garden, you will be beheaded, this kid not only dares to steal, but also dares to take it back to show everyone in public.

Don't you want to die?

"Return this red carp, don't be discovered, otherwise according to the palace rules, you will lose your head." Ruan Lingwei said speechlessly, and glared at Yun Shen at the same time.

It must have been instigated by this snack goods, otherwise would Ping An dare?

Yun Shen was stunned by his master's gaze, and he didn't know what was going on at all.

"Don't worry, this is not stolen by the slave, it was given by the king of Qi, and the king of Qi asked the slave to take this back to the master, saying that it is all up to the master to let the slave go to ventilate and report the news, this is a thank you gift to the master." Ping An said with a smile.

Ruan Lingwei was stunned when she heard this.

What does King Qi mean?

Even if you want to give a thank you gift, you don't need to give this red carp.

"Has King Qi been living in the Imperial Garden lately?" Ruan Lingwei asked after thinking about it.

"If you go back to the royal maid, King Qi will enter the palace three days ago, and as long as the prince stays in the palace, he will live in the Ningxi Hall of the Imperial Garden." Yichun hurriedly replied.

Hearing this, Ruan Lingwei subconsciously glanced at Yun Shen beside her.

When she and Yun Shen hid in the Imperial Garden this afternoon, not only did she say a lot of things that shouldn't be said, but she also wanted to eat this red carp.

It shouldn't be heard by King Qi, right?

Thinking of this, Ruan Lingwei's face turned red all of a sudden.

However, she clearly remembered that there was no one around at the time, and she and Yun Shen were also people who knew kung fu, although they were only three-legged cats, but their ears were sensitive enough, and they didn't find anything abnormal at all.

"I guess I'm thinking too much." Ruan Lingwei comforted herself in her heart, and when she saw that everyone was looking at the carp in Ping'an's hand, she immediately said in a low voice: "Since it is a thank you gift from King Qi, let's eat, is there charcoal in the small kitchen?" Let's bake and eat it, if not, braise it, Yunshen cooks. ”

"Master, carp can't be eaten." Yun Shu hurriedly said.

"You can eat it, don't worry." Ruan Lingwei said with a smile, and then led everyone to the small kitchen.

I have to say that it is very convenient to live in a palace by myself, at least I am a little maid, and I can use the small kitchen as I like.

If it was in a palace with a lord's throne, she was not qualified to use it.

After eating the grilled fish, Ruan Lingwei took everyone to drink tea and admire the moon in the courtyard, and only went back to the house to rest when she was tired.

When Xiao Liyan returned to Ningxi Hall, it was already midnight.

"The prince's minion is waiting for you to freshen up." Li Mo stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Li Mo, let's go to Tai'an Lake to get two red carp to eat, they need to be big and fat." Xiao Liyan said while wearing a wide coat.

"Yes." Li Mo hurriedly bowed his head.

My own prince stayed up so late today, he should make up for it.

……

On the morning of the second day, as soon as Ruan Lingwei woke up, she heard Yun Shu say that her cousin entered the palace last night to treat Qing Zhaoyi, Qing Zhaoyi is no longer in danger, the high fever has also subsided, and her life must have been saved.

"Is my cousin out of the palace?" Ruan Lingwei hurriedly asked.

"I went out of the palace last night, and the young master is a foreign man, so naturally he can't stay in the palace." Yun Shu said with a smile.

"It's a pity, I haven't seen my cousin since he went to Lingnan, and it's been more than a month, and now that I've entered the palace, it's even more difficult to meet in the future." Ruan Lingwei shook her head and said.

"If the young lady was willing to marry the young master of the cousin, the Hou Ye could naturally refuse the marriage of the first emperor, so that the young lady would not be engaged to the king of Lin'an, and she would not ......" Yun Shu did not continue.

When the first emperor wanted to marry Miss and King Lin'an, the Hou Mansion got the news first, and the young master came to the mansion to propose marriage and wanted to marry Miss, but Miss did not agree.

"What is the little girl thinking? He's my cousin. Ruan Lingwei said with wide eyes.

After all, I am not a native of this time and space, and some things do have to be done by the locals, but some are not.

In the eyes of the world, if cousins and cousins become a couple, it is a matter of intimacy, but in the eyes of Ruan Lingwei, it is a blood relative, absolutely not.

She didn't want to have a child in the future and be mentally retarded.
