Guan Ju couldn't help but chatter, and when he talked about her, he came back.

"You're back, but you're in a hurry!" Pu Jia hurriedly went up to untie Guan Ju's cloak, "Why did you go all morning, but you are in trouble?" ”

"But no, I met it when I left the house!" Guan Ju ran into the inner room, still carrying the cold air from the outside, and gasped, "Girl, the slave and maid found out soon after leaving the mansion that there were three tails behind her!" ”

"—What, is the palace guard spying on me......"

"Where is the person of His Royal Highness the Prince, the slave maid can see it clearly, and one of the tails is clearly the close guard of Prince Huan!"

"Third Highness?" Pu Jia put away her cloak and opened the curtain and came in, "How can the people of the Third Highness stare at you?" ”

"It was Gong Hao who told him. It was a fluke that night to escape, but now, the two brothers have set their sights on me. ”

"Third and Fourth Highnesses?" Guan Ju couldn't figure it out, "Why are they staring at the girl, and how do they recognize me?" ”

"The Prince's Mansion is mixed, but I'm afraid they don't have eyes and ears yet?" Pu Jia poured a cup of tea for Guan Ju and said worriedly, "Then did they find out that the girl had a relationship with Taopinlou?" ”

"No, no, the slave has the ability to find them, and naturally has the ability to get rid of them. The slave maid followed the grandmother out of the house to buy since she was a child, and she was most familiar with the streets of Dongshi. ”

"Then you're going to the Taopin Building?" I pulled Guan Ju to the stool next to me and sat down, and said eagerly, "Can you see Aunt Hua in the building?" ”

"See, the slave maid went to Peach Blossom Street for the first time, and there were many people in the building, so it would take some time." Guan Ju said solemnly, "But let the little maid hand over your name, and Aunt Hua will immediately pass me to the back building!" ”

"—really, really, great! Did she tell you anything? ”

"That flower mother is shrewd at first glance. The slave was stupid, and she was afraid that she would be suspicious if she didn't understand, so she gave her your letter directly. After seeing it, my mother couldn't stop crying, and took my hand and asked the girl how you were doing. The slave didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only say to her over and over again, the girl is fine, everything is fine! ”

"That's good..."Knowing that Aunt Hua was thinking about me, there was a sour feeling in my heart, "Then did you follow what I said, and asked her not to ask me about entering the house?" ”

"Before the slave could say anything, my mother had already asked me more than a dozen questions..."Guan Ju said a little embarrassed, "But the slave and maid remembered the girl's instructions, and did not mention the miscellaneous matters in the house, but only told her to believe the girl and not worry." ”

"You're doing the right thing... I didn't inform her when I entered the house this time, and she inevitably had a lot of suspicions. It's just that I'm for Shui Qing, it has nothing to do with her, and this matter involves the prince and the court, and Aunt Hua knows a little less, so she is less dangerous. I cheered up and continued to hold Guan Ju's hand and said, "What about the other people in the building, Guan Ju, did they bring anything to me?" ”

"Yes, after the mother of the same flower explained, there was a maid who was a maid of the girl, and led the slave maid to a very beautiful embroidery room on the fifth floor." Guan Ju thought that he was telling a story, "It turned out to be two fairy-like, beautiful girls. They know that you are in the prince's mansion, and they are not as urgent as Mother Hua. ”

"Wanqiu and Sarong? It seems that Sarong has already told Wanqiu about me. ”

"Yes, it's Miss Su and Miss Rong! Miss Rong brought you a message to the slave maid, and she knew that you had a good relationship with Miss Su, so she told her about you. As for Mother Hua, she is old and worried, so it's better to wait for you to have the opportunity to tell her about things in person. Miss Rong also said that she has asked someone to inform your brother of the matter, and now that you don't have the stone and the guy in your hands, if you need help, you must ask someone to come to Taopinlou to find her again. ”

Guan Ju repeated Sarong's words with some difficulty, and then turned to me confused: "Girl, Miss Rong's words slave maid don't quite understand, when did you have a younger brother, what does 'stone and guy' mean?" ”

I secretly praised Sarong in my heart for being thoughtful - she couldn't fully trust Guan Ju, so she kept her words secret, so as not to let Guan Ju know the identity of me and her tail.

The so-called younger brother is Duan Ming who was ordered by the sect master to go to the desert country. And the stone and the guy, since the stone python bone that I gave to Duan Shen's protective body, and the sword that is still in Prince Huan's mansion.

"It's not important, I'll tell you later." I said eagerly to Guan Ju again, "What about that plain girl, is she okay, does she have anything to say to me?" ”

"Yes, that fairy-like plain girl knew that the girl must remember her body, so she specially asked the slave maid to tell the girl that Miss Rong has raised her body almost well, you don't have to worry anymore!" Guan Jumei smiled and said, "She also said that you don't have to worry about picking up customers, Mother Hua has already solved it for her!" ”

"-What?" I was so surprised that I raised my tone, "Originally, Aunt Hua also told me about this matter, if Wanqiu, as an Oiran, didn't want to pick up customers, it would be easy to delay it for a while on the grounds of illness, but it would be difficult to never have any troubles. Guan Ju, did she ever tell you what kind of methods Aunt Hua used to help her get out of trouble? ”

The slave maid was also curious about this matter, so she asked the plain girl a lot, with her qualifications, how could she keep herself in that man's pile? The girl told the slave maid that it was strange to say that it was an unidentified man who asked someone to send five million taels of silver to the building a few days ago! The white swaying silver was carried into the door of the peach sales building one by one, and everyone present was shocked! Early in the morning of the second day, a word came out in the building, and a high roller ransomed herself for Miss Su and took her out of the building to be the wife of the main house! ”

"There is such a thing, why don't I know..."I frowned and pondered, "It's just that it's not Aunt Hua's own play, and the man who paid for it didn't even take Wanqiu away?" ”

"This matter is strange here, the person who is a high roller is not a girl, but only takes away the deed of the girl. Right now, the plain girl has her hair coiled and wears a dark silk skirt, and she has become the second-in-command of the peach sales building, helping Mother Hua to take care of the business! ”

"This dare is good, a windfall out of thin air, but it can solve the predicament of that plain girl." Pu Jia couldn't help but be happy when she heard this, and turned her head to me and smiled, "Everything is fine with everyone in Taopinlou, the girl can rest assured this time!" ”

I smiled faintly, but I was still thinking to myself, who would be the person who redeemed Wanqiu's body deed like a timely rain......

Miss Su also said that although she didn't know why you chose the crown princess, she was willing to take care of Mother Hua for you when you were not in the building. She said that she believed in you, and she believed that you, as a friend of her deceased husband, would fulfill her long-cherished wish for her deceased husband. ”

I feel in my heart that Wanqiu's life is difficult, and Chu River is like a ray of sunshine shining into her life, even if it is fleeting, it has become her unswerving belief in this life.

In this way, in the afternoon, firecrackers were lit in the imperial city, led by the prince's mansion, and the entire Kazhou was also scrambling to set off, crackling and very lively. The remnant sun shines in the evening, indescribably splendid and prosperous, peaceful and prosperous.

Although I am already the head of the prince's mansion, I can't take care of all the affairs in the mansion, so I am managed by a few capable housekeepers for many years. When something big happens, they don't come to my hospital and ask me for an idea.

It was past the hour, but there was still no food in the kitchen. Guan Ju was about to ask, but he saw a butler enter the courtyard and bowed to me: "Meet the crown princess and mother, and wish the lady a happy Chinese New Year's Eve, and a thousand years of life with His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Seeing me nodding, Guan Ju took out a red envelope from his arms and stuffed it into the butler's hand, and said, "This eldest brother looks like a small kitchen in the backyard, it's getting late, you don't send food to the mother, but go to the mother to ask for a reward?" ”

"Niangniang's atonement, it is really that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entered the palace today, and told us to make a table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for Niangniang, it is only a little late, but now it is all done!" The butler smiled and said, "The slave came here to ask the maiden, after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, only one table was made, but the maiden wants to ask the five highnesses to use it together?" ”

"Miyahata?" I was surprised, "Did he come to the Prince's Mansion?" ”

"Niangniang, the Fifth Highness has never left the house since he was brought by the Third Highness before!"

I was stunned, Gong Hao, did he not go to the palace for a banquet, but stayed alone in the prince's mansion?

"Today's family banquet in the palace, what's the matter with His Royal Highness staying in our Prince's Mansion?"

"Miss Guan Ju's words are good. According to the rules, the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet is that the princes and nobles must accompany the emperor, and the absence of the prince is even more inappropriate. The butler smiled awkwardly, "It's just that our Fifth Highness... I've never been a master of the rules. He was silently absent, and no one in the palace came to invite him for so long, so I am afraid that the emperor would not bother to care about him. ”

"Your Majesty doesn't care, but we can't ignore it in the house..." He is the mother's uncle again, this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner... But there is no reason for a family to eat at two tables......"

"That's where the minions are in trouble," the butler nodded to Pu Jia, "You said that His Royal Highness is Niangniang's uncle, and they should have eaten together." It's just that now the mother has not passed the door, and His Royal Highness the prince is not in the house. The minions were afraid that they would call him without authorization to make the mother unhappy, and this left was neither right nor right, and the minions were embarrassed for a long time, so they came to the mother to ask. ”

I listened to the housekeeper's words, but I only thought about the palace flag in my heart - he, knowing that not entering the palace for a banquet today would inevitably anger his father and attract the eyes of the government and the opposition, so why did he have to stay in the prince's mansion?

Is it because of me......

"Eldest brother, our mother understands it, you care about your mother's reputation and face, I thank you for my mother."

I looked at Pu Jia, and she threw a subtle, reassuring smile at me, turned her head and continued to say aloud: "It's just that as the eldest brother said, Niangniang has not yet married His Royal Highness, and the fifth highness has a foreign man, I am afraid it is not appropriate to stay at the same table with Niangniang." It's just that he is the fifth prince of the big heart, and there is no reason for us to be lazy in the house. Please pass on the words of the mother and ask the kitchen to send the mother's meal to his side room. ”
