Chapter 66: Extremely Poor
When Lu Hui woke up from the table the next day, his whole body was in pain.
She rubbed her neck and straightened up.
Hearing the faint sound of a rooster crowing in the distance, Lu Hui secretly said no, grabbed his clothes and went outside, avoided the attendants, and returned to his room.
Seeing that no one was disturbing, she breathed a sigh of relief.
If Cangcang came in and called her, wouldn't everything be exposed?
Turning her head to see that Shan Shulin was still lying down, her hands and feet tied in place, she completely relieved herself.
"Actually, it's not that difficult to deal with." Lu Hui muttered in a low voice, "Why is the world so jealous of him?" ”
Isn't it enough to knock out a pillow?
Nearer, she bent down to probe for Shan Lin's breath, and rested her two fingers in front of his nose, finding that her breathing was steady, and she had probably not woken up yet.
Looking at the wound on his chest again, it was already scabbed and faintly healed.
It's just that...... He should have woken up.
Lu Hui looked at the little pile on Shan Shulin's cuffs and sighed softly.
The latter was already very careful, and the quilt and the rope used to bind her hands were the same as before she left. But Lu Hui still kept an eye on it. As she removed the rope from the curtain, she secretly pulled some down down.
The down was placed under the sleeves of the single sloppy, pressed against the moire of his cuffs.
Now that those duvets have been turned over to the clothes, there is no other possibility except that Shan Shulin has sat up.
However, since he intends to turn a blind eye and ignore his own affairs, why should he expose him?
Lu Hui just pretended not to find out, sat on the edge of the bed, lowered the curtain, and waited for Cangcang to enter the room.
Cangcang has always been punctual, Lu Hui didn't wait too long, and at the end of the day, Cangcang fetched water into the house and put the copper basin on the table: "Girl, why did you wake up so early today?" ”
As she spoke, she approached to change Lu Hui's clothes.
"Stop." Lu Hui stopped her, "Don't come over yet." ”
Puzzled, he stood in place.
Lu Hui covered the curtain and walked over by himself.
Of course, she couldn't let Cang pass. If Cangcang saw Shan Shulin lying on his bed, he wouldn't know what to think.
can tie Shan Shulin to other places, and she is not very relieved. If you stuff him under the bed, God knows if he'll crawl out on his own.
Hmph, this scourge.
Cangcang could hear the sound of breathing inside, and remembered that Wei Shuang had explained to a few of them yesterday, if he saw the master in His Highness's room, he would just treat it as if he hadn't heard, didn't see, and didn't know.
Anyway, as long as you assume that nothing has happened.
Thinking of this, Cangcang turned his head to the dresser to get a hair comb, and first pulled up Lu Hui's hair to make it easier to change clothes: "Girl, are you going out today?" ”
Lu Hui remembered where she was going, and said to Cang Cang: "Today has to be more solemn, the hair ornament is a little complicated, but not too gorgeous." ”
Cangcang smiled and replied, "Okay." ”
Cangcang has a pair of skillful hands, and in less than two quarters of an hour, Lu Hui was fully dressed and neatly taken care of from beginning to end.
"Girl, would you like that?"
Cang Cang held up the bronze mirror, placed it in front of Lu Hui, and asked with a smile.
Lu Hui looked at himself in the mirror, knew what to expect, and nodded: "It's okay." ”
Getting up, she admonished, "No one is allowed to come to my house after I go out today." ”
Shan Shulin is already sober and good, but in case someone bumps into her, the unlucky person is still her Lu Hui. Anyway, it's good to have a little more advice.
"Yes, girl." Cang Cang smiled, "It's just a girl, where are you going?" Do you want your servant to ...... with you?"
Before Cang Cang's words were finished, there was a noise outside, and Pu Jia knocked on the door three times, and entered the door after getting Lu Hui's permission.
"Master." Pu Jia walked into the door quickly and said to Lu Hui, "There is a father-in-law outside who asks to see him." ”
Here it comes.
Lu Hui got up and eased his emotions a little: "Go out with me." ”
She turned her head to look out the window, and it was bright, but not too bright. The speed at which people came was faster than she had imagined.
Standing outside was a eunuch in a dark ochre uniform.
The most venerable eunuch of Jiang State is ochre, and only the emperor's close attendant Gao Gonggong can be used, and the inferior one is the dark ochre on the eunuch's body, followed by green and cyan, and the palace attendants and grades are divided by the ornaments on the clothes.
In other words, this eunuch is someone close to the emperor.
His cheeks were slightly sweaty, and he stood under the eaves and kept wiping his sweat, looking a little impatient.
However, this impatience disappeared the moment he saw Lu Hui.
Seeing Lu Hui, the eunuch immediately approached, bowed and saluted, and said happily: "Torture girl." ”
The chamberlains in the palace can't survive if they don't have a clear mind. They are the most snobbish and the least snobbish. At least, he was polite to Lu Hui on the surface, and he did it completely.
Lu Hui returned the salute: "Father-in-law works hard, Cangcang, why don't you pour tea for your father-in-law?" ”
Cangcang immediately went into the house to fetch water.
The eunuch waved his hand and smiled: "Don't be so troublesome. ”
Cangcang took a cup of tea and served it with both hands.
The eunuch didn't refuse, he hurriedly drank a sip of water, and his face was a little gentle: "Torture girl, Your Majesty heard yesterday that the Taishi said that he accepted a female disciple, and this morning he asked our family to come out and invite you to the palace, and also asked the girl to pick up the decorations and go to the palace with our family." ”
Lu Hui saluted again: "Please wait for Nange for a while, and come later." ”
The eunuch nodded, but did not object: "Please hurry up, the hour cannot be delayed." ”
Lu Hui nodded and called Cangcang to enter the house with her.
In fact, she was ready, and it was not impossible to follow the eunuch into the palace directly, but it was just a matter of face, and she still had to do it carefully.
For example, when I heard that I entered the palace, I had to 'dress up' in detail.
After sitting down in the room for a while, Lu Hui went out as he was.
The eunuch only let Lu Hui follow him, and Cangcang and the others stayed in the mansion.
For this, Lu Hui was not surprised.
The palace is not a place where she can lead people, and it is not a bad thing that they don't follow her. At least it wouldn't be so easy to know what was going on in the palace.
The carriage was already waiting outside, and it was a very common style of carriage, not only inconspicuous, but even very ordinary to walk around on the road.
But the horse is a good horse, and Lu Hui sat in the car and barely felt the bumps.
There was a long distance from the Imperial Palace, and it was about half an hour before Lu Hui saw the vermilion gate of the Imperial Palace.
The palace was not allowed to drive, so Lu Hui helped the eunuch get out of the carriage and put a silver ingot in his hand.
She laughed in a low voice: "Gonggong Chen, how is Your Majesty feeling recently?" ”
During the journey, Lu Hui already knew the name and surname of this eunuch, and also figured out his approximate status in the palace.
Gonggong Chen checked the silver in his hand, and it was about ten taels. Putting the silver in his bosom, he said, "How can you and I guess what Your Majesty thinks?" Don't say anything like that. ”
In the face of Gonggong Chen's reprimand, Lu Hui smiled yes, but his heart was like a mirror.
It seems that the emperor is in a very bad mood today.
Chen's remarks were not a reprimand, but a reminder that he had to be careful everywhere.
