"Guan Ju!"

Behind her, she scolded in horror and hurriedly ran to the gate to make sure that no one heard, and then closed the door and ran back to me.

"If you say such things plainly, aren't you inciting the girl!"

"Isn't this no outsider..."Guan Ju regretted his speech, glanced out of the window stupidly, and still said stubbornly: "Last night you obviously said that you couldn't figure it out......"

"How can the private words of our subordinates pollute the girl's hearing!"

"-It's okay, it's hard for you to think about me." I smiled and stroked the back of my white jade-like hand, "The second son of the curtain has coveted the storage position for a long time, and he hasn't been able to get it for so many years, because the palace is still favored by the emperor." Coupled with the support of the marquis of Lihou and the old ministers, the crown prince of the palace should still sit firmly in the next few years. ”

"But girl, there are some things you have to think about." Pu Jia couldn't help it, and interjected, "The emperor is old, and the Hou Ye is a benevolent and weak character, how many years can the prince rely on these two if he wants to?" Speaking of the Southern Desert, they have repeatedly provoked trouble on the border in recent years, and these turmoil has always been quelled by Prince Huan's military department. Our dynasty is the war horse to win the world, the most important military merit. The third prince is so meritorious, you have to worry about the crown prince! ”

I looked at Pu Jia's slightly reddened cheeks, and I was secretly shocked in my heart - this girl is usually silent, but she hides everything in her heart and doesn't say anything, which is really a success.

"Pu Jia, you can think so much for me, I thank you." I smiled at the sincere girl in front of me, "But as Guan Ju said, I didn't marry into the prince's mansion because I had no intention of attaching to, but I had other plans, and there was no other way." After a hundred years of the emperor, if the throne really changes, I will also protect myself and the two of you from being implicated by the palace. ”

Hearing my words, Guan Ju suddenly smiled like a flower, but Pu Jia just looked at me fixedly, silent.

"The girl told us this..."After a long time, Pu Jia slowly spoke, her voice as simple and quiet as jade, "Aren't you afraid that we are the prince's people, and we will turn our heads and report to His Highness?" ”

"Pu Jia, where did you start—"

"—Since I said it, I naturally believe you." I looked at Guan Ju, who was a little anxious, and smiled faintly, "Don't say that you are not the treacherous people, just say that the palace will not have such a careful mind and put eyes and ears around me." I have no relatives in this prince's mansion, and if I am wary of you any longer, I will be too tired to live. ”

Since then, Guan Ju has become more and more loyal to me. The two of them are one writer and one martial arts, one static and one moving, which really adds color to my life in the prince's mansion.

In the blink of an eye, it was the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the palace maid really left the palace early in the morning. Everyone in the house was busy with errands, I found the opportunity, took care of the guards, and asked Guan Ju to go out of the house in person and sent a letter of peace to Aunt Hua to Taopinlou. also specially instructed her to hand it over to Aunt Hua in person.

"Girl, don't worry, drink hawthorn tea. Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must enter the palace and have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with the emperor, and he also instructed the mansion to prepare a table for you, if you don't use more, the prince will know that there will be trouble again when he comes back. ”

"On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve reunion, I thought that the palace commander would pull me into the palace with him, but I didn't want to go, and I even thought about the excuse that I hadn't married yet." I took the teacup and put it on the table, and then sneered and said, "Who would have thought that he didn't even mention it, and went to the palace alone in the morning." ”

"The girl has no family background, and Your Majesty acquiesced to you being the concubine of the Prince's Mansion, because His Royal Highness had many troubles with His Majesty in the early years. Your Highness knows that Your Majesty will not like you, and he is the best person to save face. I'm not going to take you there..."

Pu Jia was a little embarrassed as she spoke, so she had to hold up a smile and continue, "No matter what, it's in line with the girl's wishes, isn't it?" ”

"Hmph, I thought he valued me. I don't have to feel guilty about him this time. ”

Pu Jia smiled bitterly, seeing that although I was not saddened by the matter of the palace, but I was still holding the teacup in a daze, I understood in my heart and said intimately: "Girl, don't worry, the slave and maid have grown up with Guan Ju since childhood, and know that although she is a little rougher, she is very neat in her work." What's more, the Prince's Mansion is only two main streets away, and I believe she will come back soon to explain to you. ”

I was relieved by Pu Jia's words, but I still had other worries—

Gong Hao, that day I almost completely tore my face with him, fortunately I met Gong Hao, after some nonsense and entanglement, broke the net that Gong Hao carefully woven for me.

However, I still remember the look of Gong Hao that day. His eyes are so resentful, if he is unwilling and wants to take revenge, and sends someone to target Guan Ju who is out of the house, then my relationship with Taopinlou will be exposed, but what should I do......

"-Niangniang, the guard at the gate of the mansion asks to see you!"

The shouts of the guards at the gate disturbed my deep thoughts. Pu Jia answered, "Come in", and sure enough, a well-dressed boy bowed in and knelt down in front of me.

"The crown princess, the marquis of Lifu in Xishi asks to see you."

My heart suddenly tightened, and my whole body seemed to lose all my strength.

Hou Ye... Did he still know?

Seeing that I was silent, Pu Jia asked, "Master Hou?" Shouldn't his old man be in the palace at this time to pay homage to the emperor's concubines? ”

"Back to the girl, Master Hou is from the direction of the palace."

"Since you came back from the palace, you should have seen our Highness, why did you make a special trip to the house to find it?"

"Girl, Lord Hou is not here to see His Royal Highness the Prince, he said that what he wants to see is the Crown Princess."

"-see the mother?" Pu Jia was surprised, "What kind of rule is this, as a foreign minister, how can the Hou Ye see His Royal Highness the Prince's concubines who have not passed through the door?" ”

"-You go back and return to Lord Lihou." I interrupted in a trembling voice, my thoughts still chaotic, "I am the prince's inner relative, His Royal Highness is not here, and I shouldn't see a foreign man without permission." ”

"Niangniang, Master Hou has instructed him, and it is really abrupt for him to ask to see him. I'm afraid that the mother doesn't understand the rules, if you want to come out, the little one must be stopped, so I can wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to return to the house, and then take you to the front yard. In the meantime, he waited in the side hall of the front yard. ”

There was a sour feeling in my heart, Master Hou, I turned my back on you like that at the beginning, and now, you don't have a word of complaint against me, but still think about me everywhere......

"Wait in the side hall, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is only afraid that he will not be able to come back until the evening, Lord Hou, he-"

"—Pu Jia." I interrupted again in a deep voice, "I haven't married the prince yet, and accepting the congratulations of the Hou Ye at this time is not justified after all." You go to the front and tell the Hou Ye to go back to the house, so that you can have a good New Year. ”

"Niangniang, the Hou Ye also said-"

"—You're guarding the gate tonight, aren't you? If the prince has not left when the prince comes back in the evening, you can tell the prince for me that the princess's innocence matters, and let him send the prince back to Lifu in good life. ”

The guard wanted to say more, but when he saw my resolute expression, although he was puzzled, he had no choice but to retreat.

Seeing that the guard was walking away, Pu Jia gently stepped forward and took the tea cup that was already slightly cold in my hand, and said tentatively: "If the girl has something on her mind, if she doesn't say that she will listen to the slave and maid, she will not be able to relieve her worries, and it is good to relieve her heart?" ”

Thinking of Master Hou, my heart is already extremely soft. At this moment, I listened to Pu Jia's soft whispering of intimate comfort, where could I still hold back my tears, and my nose was sour.

Su Su will be Lianyue Mountain arrested, until the matter of escaping from the house with the power of Wen Zhao, the time is already noon. The servants really served a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, Guan Ju had not yet returned to the house, but I and Pu Jia were on the table, but they were just sighing and weeping, and they were speechless.

"Lord Hou, he has worked hard to support His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over the years, and he often comes to our house. The people below are shallow and ugly, and they only laugh at him for being stubborn and stupid. But I don't know... It turned out that his old man was such a person who valued love and righteousness. ”

"I'm ashamed of him, Pu Jia... I don't really know how to deal with him. ”

"Girl, be relieved. If the Hou Ye really complained about you, why did he come to the house to find you? Why are you so anxious, but you are so meticulous and thoughtful for your sake, for fear that you will offend the prince? ”

"Fortunately, he went back today. If the person who came to summon said that he insisted on waiting... Pu Jia, I really don't know if I can bear it......"

"That's exactly what I said. Maybe the Hou Ye was really anxious when he heard the news that you were in the Prince's Mansion in the palace, so he rushed to it desperately. But since he listened to the girl's words and went back to the house, he could know that he was relieved. Girl, Master Hou must believe in you! ”

"He didn't just believe in me, he loved me so much. But I only thought about the safety of my old friends, and I went out of the house to find ......"

"By the way, according to what the girl said, the purpose of your entry into the Prince's Mansion is to find out the whereabouts of that Shui Qing girl?"

"-Nice!" Hearing Shui Qing's name, my heart was shocked again, "Pu Jia, the palace maid had wanted to make Shui Qing a concubine before, you are from the prince's mansion, have you ever heard of her?" ”

"Girl, the slave maid was originally just a girl bought by the housekeeper in the house, and she is a subordinate of the subordinate, how can I know about the master?"

Pu Jia smiled apologetically and bitterly: "The princess in front of her was also a maidservant in the house, and she was favored by Her Royal Highness because of her outstanding appearance and fiery temperament. On the night of the favor, for some reason, she also excused herself like you, a girl, which made His Royal Highness very unhappy. And the slave maid heard that this Shuiqing girl had a very bad temper, and her speech was also upside down, she did not allow the prince to get close, let alone leave someone in the room to serve. It was only because His Highness loved her that he granted her strange requests one by one. It was precisely because of the lax guards that she had the opportunity to escape from the house on the night of the wedding. ”

"This is indeed Shui Qing's temperament..."I was thrilled to hear, but I couldn't help but regret it, "It's just that as you said, no one was close to her when she was in the Prince's Mansion?" ”

"It's not for sure, slaves and maids are not good, and they know less about things. When Guan Ju comes back, you can ask her, she is deaf and clear-sighted, and may know some secrets that the slave maid does not know! ”

"-Girl, Pu Jia, I'm back!"
