Chapter 82: Painting the Ground as a Dungeon
Gu Zhongliang later told her that if she was investigating the evidence, she should pay attention to Jin Bingbing's boudoir and Jin Huai's study, and these two places were also the most dangerous places in the entire Pingnan Palace, even if he couldn't easily get close.
After Hong Ying also told Gu Zhongliang to be careful, she quietly went out of the house and followed the route in her memory to Jin Huai's study...... But halfway through, someone suddenly came out, put a knife on her neck, and shouted, "Who dares to trespass on the palace?" ”
Hong Ying hurriedly said: "This good man wants to be angry, I am the lord of Anxi, but I can't find the beginning of Jin, so I came here to look for ......"
The man stared at her vigilantly for a long time before he said, "What evidence?" ”
Hong Ying hurriedly handed over the jade pendant of the county lord on her waist and said, "I really didn't lie to you. ”
The man took a closer look at the jade pendant, then let go of the dagger and said, "Offended!" It's just the forbidden place of the prince's study, and no one else is allowed to enter! ”
Hongying nodded and said, "I'll pay attention next time." ”
The man pointed to the east again and said, "You go along this road, and then turn right and you will see the residence of the young lady, and turn left and you will find the boudoir of the young lady." ”
"Thank you." Hong Ying left with some fear, but in the bottom of her heart, she was secretly palpitating at the speed of the person's unaware shot, and he was like a ghost, unpredictable.
There is such a master in the palace, and it is not much better than the ethereal purple!
But he at least told her where Jin Bingbing lived. I have heard of Jin Bingbing's methods for a long time, and now I should meet her.
Jin Bingbing's courtyard is very small and exquisite, different from the simplicity of the main hall, the courtyard has chiseled a pool of blue stream, above the stream, paved with shallow moss, because the lotus has not opened, so on the moss, scattered peach blossoms on the peach tree at will, the light green grass will almost cover the path, in the grass, unknown scattered small flowers, dotted in the meantime, Jin Bingbing wears a white skirt, draped in a silver shawl, standing quietly on the grass, looking at a blue stream, like a delicate jade finger, Gently touching the peach blossoms that are about to fall, it seems to be feeling sad in spring.
It seemed that she had known that she would come, Jin Bingbing didn't even want to say more extra polite words, her lips opened slightly, and said: "My small courtyard has a lot of organs, you don't want to touch those little flowers, find a place to sit anywhere." ”
Hongying carefully avoided the little flowers, but she was secretly frightened, these exquisite little flowers were actually Jin Bingbing's biggest killer feature, it was no wonder that Gu Zhongming would suffer a loss here, but it was also thanks to his cleverness, he could think of the golden cicada's plan to get out of the shell, and he didn't make the people in the palace suspicious.
"If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, what is the purpose of your coming to my house?" Jin Bingbing's directness made Hong Ying slightly stunned, but then Jin Bingbing sneered: "Don't think that no one knows your thoughts, I'm afraid my father is guarding against you!" But such a mentally retarded plan, I really don't know who came up with it, if I were you, I must have several ways to get into the palace. ”
Hong Ying stiffened slightly, being ridiculed by her peers, which made her feel faceless, so she retorted to her: "Even if my method is stupid and stupid, but at least I did it, I dare to do it, and you don't dare!" ”
These words seemed to sting Jin Bingbing's heart, she didn't underestimate her anymore, but sighed faintly, like a hollow valley orchid, her eyes flashed and said, "Perhaps, you can really do something." ”
Jin Bingbing said, straightened her long and smooth hair, and smiled with a rare smile: "To be honest, I really envy you, you have always lived so easily." And I'm different, you don't know, what a sad and terrible thing it is to live under the wings of Jin Huai! ”
Hong Ying was stunned, listening to Jin Bingbing's complaint to Jin Huai, she really didn't know if she was telling the truth or fooling her. Jin Bingbing said indifferently: "You don't need to come to me to find evidence, because I am here, but I just drew the ground as a prison myself." ”
Hong Ying, who was suddenly pierced by Jin Bingbing's thoughts, was slightly ugly, this woman who was as tranquil as the empty valley orchid, it turned out that every word was beautiful, and in the depths of her clear eyes, it seemed that there was a lot of truth, and she had seen through the vicissitudes of the world, but she didn't seem to be able to get rid of the dirt of this world, so she struggled in the dirt.
"Father's study, you don't have to take risks, if you really want to find any evidence, why don't you go to the backyard, there are always servants every day to destroy some secret letters, if you are lucky, you will pick up the evidence you need." Jin Bingbing suddenly said lightly, her voice seemed to come from the clouds, ethereal and ethereal......
Hong Ying was slightly shocked, she didn't believe that Jin Bingbing would help her anyway, after all, she was named Jin by Jin Huai, and she was a blood relative to Jin Huai. is reasonable, she should help Jin Huai.
Jin Bingbing didn't pay attention to her anymore, but turned around silently, stroked the peach blossoms, and suddenly crushed and grinded a beautiful petal, and the fragrance of the flowers lingered on her fingers, with infinite resentment, just like her slightly tightened brows.
Hong Ying suddenly understood her mood a little, and her resentment towards her father seemed to force her to go to a dead end, but just like that, did she have to drag her father back? Hong Ying was puzzled, because from her point of view, she would definitely not stab her father for any deep hatred, even if it was against Chu Qingxiang, she would not.
Therefore, although she was very interested in Jin Bingbing's proposal, she was more worried that this was Jin Huai's plan to lure her into the urn, so she planned to abandon a chess piece to test Jin Bingbing.
After Hong Ying left, Jin Bingbing suddenly stood up and said to the figure in the dark: "Keep an eye on her and report her whereabouts to me." Also, if she encounters any danger, you can help. ”
"Yes!" In the empty courtyard, a black shadow suddenly floated by, faint, so that people could not see it really, and it was like a ghost, drifting away......
Hongying pondered for a while, and then pretended to go around to the kitchen in a daze, and asked the little girl, "Is there a carp?" "To be able to come up with this kind of code, Hong Ying grinds her teeth against Chu Luo's IQ, but if she is asked, she will collapse directly!
Three or four figures sharply threw over, and Hong Ying walked over and asked, "No?" Is there less water? The three or four people were shocked in unison, and one of them said, "The wind is strong, and the water is naturally less!" ”
Hongying nodded, walked over, handed over a note, and whispered, "Be careful." The man also said loudly: "You girl looks well-dressed, wearing red, green, and green, but what kind of relatives are in the palace?" ”
"Relatives can't be said, distant relatives!" After Hong Ying finished speaking, she said regretfully: "Since there is no carp, I can't make a carp jump over the dragon gate, and I want to thank the prince!" ”
Hong Ying regretted leaving while talking, which made the three parties who followed her inexplicable.
Jin Chu heard that she wanted to make fish to flatter Jin Huai, so he asked the servant to catch three large tanks of carp and send it to Hongying's boudoir, and said: "If you lack something, tell the servant that you will not be wronged in the palace!" ”
Hongying was full of black lines, but she had to thank her for a thousand thanks, she never expected that on the first day she arrived at Pingnan Palace, she would have to do strenuous exercise and study how to burn carp and jump over the dragon gate......
She worked hard to get the maid to throw the carp on the board, and carried the kitchen knife herself to the field. But the carp tail on the board dangled around, and the water droplets splashed everywhere, and Hong Ying held the knife in her right hand and the fish tail in her left hand, grinding her teeth and shaking the fish and said, "You fish meat on the board, give me honesty."
Everyone covered their mouths and snickered, and one of the maids came out and said cautiously: "The slave maid once made carp in the hometown, let the slave maid come."
Hong Ying hurriedly handed over the live fish, drove out the useless people in the kitchen, and asked, "Have you ever made a carp jump over the dragon gate?"
The maid shook her head and said, "It's the first time I've heard of this kind of dish." It's probably because the slave maid is too short-sighted. ”
"Oh, it's out of the way, just make carp." As for the Fish Leaping Dragon Gate, it's just a matter of styling.
So the maid neatly liberated the carp, then cleaned it, started a fire, burned oil, and stir-fried it, and then threw the carp into the pot and stir-fried it skillfully......
The fragrance wafted in the kitchen, and the red Ying was eager to eat first. Soon, the maid made the braised carp, and then asked her: "County Lord, the carp is ready, do you want to put it on the plate?" ”
Hong Ying nodded and asked again, "Does this small kitchen have golden ingredients?" ”
"Golden!" The maid thought carefully for a while, and suddenly said in surprise: "There are yellow radish!" ”
"Does anyone know how to carve?"
"Futu should know, the stone lions in the palace are all carved by him." The maid knew Futu, and when she said his name, her cheeks flushed slightly, which made Hong Ying naturally want to be crooked.
"Then call him over, and say I have something to ask him." Hongying said this lightly, but the maid's eyes were round, she didn't expect the county lord to talk to them with a plea, and she said with gratitude in her heart: "Yes, county lord!" The slave and maid will go and ask him."
"Wait......"
"Yes."
"What's your name?"
"If you go back to the county lord, the slave maid is called Liu Yuan."
"Oh, I'm sorry for you!" In the royal palace, if you can't cause trouble, you don't cause trouble, and sometimes, it is much easier to buy the servants at the bottom than it is for the upper class. Hong Ying really lowered her figure to mingle with the most ordinary maid in this palace.
The maid listened to Hongying's words, her eyes were slightly red, she had grown so big, it was the first time that the county lord had said such things to her, isn't it within her duty for the slave to do things for the master?
She ran out with red eyes, and it didn't take long to call Futu over, Futu didn't want to do things for a strange master, but because of Liu Yuan, he was a little curious about this master who treated servants well, so he put down the wooden work in his hand and rushed over, as soon as he entered the kitchen, he could see a red figure, rolling his sleeves, washing a bunch of yellow radish.
When Liu Yuan saw her, he hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the radish in her hand, and said, "Let's do this kind of rough work, how can we be embarrassed to bother the county lord?" ”
Hong Ying smiled lightly: "What's this, it's just a gesture!" ”
Futu was already dumbfounded, he didn't believe that the woman in red would be the county lord, but looking at her bright clothes, he thought that it was the maid favored by which lady, but he didn't expect that it was actually the county lord, how could the county lord do this kind of rough work with these rough people?
