518 I'll wait for him
Zhu Youzhu subconsciously turned his head and glanced out the window.
Lao Yu was stunned.
If he didn't mean to be wrong, His Highness wanted to...... Do you want to leave the palace now?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did have such thoughts, but he immediately dismissed them.
Leaving the palace late at night is bound to be troublesome, but what he is afraid of is not trouble-
If you go to find the little queen at this time and lead her out to speak, a little carelessness will inevitably hinder her reputation. So, I'll see you tomorrow.
ββ¦β¦ There is still one thing for his subordinates to be revealed. At this time, Lao Yu spoke again.
Zhu Youzhu looked at him and motioned for him to say.
"When the subordinates came forward to take Concubine Yun away today, Miss Zhang happened to be on the spot."
Zhu Youzhu was a little surprised, and immediately asked, "Is she injured or frightened?" β
"I wasn't hurt." Lao Yu thought for a while and said, "I shouldn't have been frightened. β
After all, he has known Miss Zhang for more than four years, and he has never seen the other party's frightened appearance - especially the incident behind the mountain of Dayongchang Temple, which still impressed him.
I wish you peace of mind.
The next moment, I heard Lao Yu say in a somewhat complicated tone: "But my subordinates were recognized by the maid next to Miss Zhang." β
As for why, he still hasn't figured it out.
"It's okay, be careful next time." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's tone did not mean much blame.
But Lao Yu knows that this is mainly because the other party is a girl from the Zhang family-
In another case, the other party is an opposing person who is inconvenient to know his identity, but I am afraid that it will be troublesome.
When Lao Yu was reflecting on himself, he suddenly heard his Royal Highness instruct: "If there is a next time, remember to come immediately." β
It is very difficult for the little queen to take the initiative to see him, he has to strike while the iron is hot to see him, otherwise, she doesn't want to see him again after a day, what should I do?
Lao Yu did not doubt that he had it, and he responded to it.
Because he was bent on completing the errand assigned by His Royal Highness more satisfactorily in the future, when Lao Yu left, he silently decided that the next time he saw Ah Li, he would definitely ask what happened.
But what he didn't expect was that this opportunity soon came.
Early the next morning, Lao Yu got up before dawn and sprinkled a broom in the front yard.
I used to sweep the floor in the private school for too long, and I don't know when I developed the habit of being uncomfortable if I didn't sweep for a day.
He tried to break the damn habit, but sometimes he got up and unconsciously took the broom in his hand, and when he came back to his senses, he had already finished sweeping.
After several years of correction, he gradually understood that there seemed to be only one way to get rid of this indisputable problem - chop off his hand.
The old man who accepted his fate was very serious.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a knock on the door that was not in a hurry.
Lao Yu subconsciously became vigilant.
This annex placed by His Royal Highness is hardly set foot on weekdays, let alone early in the morning.
He was on guard without a trace, and asked in a calm voice behind the door, "Who?" β
"Naturally, it's a guest."
He was answered by a smart girlish voice.
Although he didn't declare his identity, Lao Yu had already heard it - this was the maid who was in Kaiyuan Temple yesterday and shouted to reveal his identity.
Lao Yu opened the door at this time.
When I saw the people outside the door, I was stunned.
She thought that Ah Li came alone, or to spread the word, but she never thought that the girl of the Zhang family actually came to the door in person.
"Miss Zhangβ"
Lao Yu turned sideways and got out of the way.
Zhang Meishou walked in, and Lao Yu closed the door.
"Miss Zhang came here so early, I don't know why?"
Lao Yu walked beside Zhang Meishou and asked.
"I'll wait for your son-in-law."
The girl spoke bluntly, her tone was frank, and she was not uncomfortable.
As for why I came here so early, I was a little anxious, but more to avoid people's eyes.
Lao Yu, who was not good at words, had nothing to say, and only silently took people to the front hall.
Along the way, Zhang Meishou looked at this courtyard casually.
It is quiet and tranquil, but on the way to the front hall, whether it is a corridor or a path, peach trees are planted on both sides, and there is one every ten steps.
"These trees look like they're not very old." Zhang Meishou said thoughtfully.
Lao Yu nodded and said: "When this courtyard was first placed a few years ago, Gongzi specially ordered a florist to plant it. β
Zhang Meishou didn't speak again.
But she knew that he didn't seem to like peach trees that much-
Lao Yu invited people to the front hall, made tea, and said, "Childe didn't know that Miss Zhang would be here today, so I still have to go and tell you." β
But then again, Miss Zhang only asked him to send a message to His Royal Highness yesterday, and did not say that they would meet today...... But Miss Zhang came over directly today, as if she was sure that His Royal Highness would leave the palace today?
Lao Yu walked out of the front hall with some confusion.
At this time, a woman's slightly shrill voice suddenly came.
"I came to deliver something on the order of my county lord, why can't I come in? That's how you don't have hospitality! β
A green-clad maid walked briskly, ignoring the young servants beside her.
"What's going on?" Lao Yu frowned at this scene.
"Uncle Yu, this girl is here again, and she has to break in...... The small one couldn't stop it. The young servant looked at Old Yu with a nervous expression.
He was originally the son of Yu Dingbo's deceased, but because he lost his parents and was destroyed by his creditor, he had no way to make a living, so he was brought by Yu Dingbo to settle in another courtyard.
This is after Zhu Youzhu nodded.
"Why, I'm here to deliver something, come in to rest my feet, and have a cup of tea, can't I?" The maid was arrogant, glanced at Lao Yu coldly, and continued to break in, poking her head to look at the situation in the hall.
Zhang Meishou sat there eating tea, and he also looked over when he heard the sound.
When he saw the other party's appearance clearly, his eyes couldn't help but be cold.
In her previous life, when she was still in the Prince's Mansion, it was this maid who helped Yan Zhen cut off one of Ah Li's fingers.
And afterwards, the reason that Yan Zhen gave her was just that Ah Li knocked over the teacup and splashed her dress wet when serving tea-
But Ah Li said that it was the maid next to Yan Zhen at that time, and she deliberately tripped her.
To put it bluntly, Yan Zhen is just deliberately looking for trouble for her, the crown princess, and embarrassing her through this matter.
At that time, the Ning family was in full swing, Yan Zhen was still the county lord, and she was much more flamboyant than she is now-and she was from a mediocre background, and she was naturally not taken seriously by Yan Zhen when she first entered the prince's mansion.
She knew that Yan Zhen was deliberately provoking her many times, trying to catch her mistakes, or making Zhu Youzhu disgusted with her...... But she knew this, but she still couldn't swallow the slightest loss.
Sometimes she blames herself for not being angry, but it's not that she can't swallow her anger, but she can't think of a smarter way to get angry.
After Ah Li was cut off, she was angry and distressed, she didn't close her eyes all night, and went to Ningfu in person the next day.
Before going, she was patient and dressed up incomparably inside and out.
