Wen Qiu walked to the second gate, said to the mother-in-law guarding the door, and asked the people over there to pass the word, and after waiting for a while, Qin Jiang came over.

"Sister Wenqiu, I've been waiting for a long time."

Qin Jiang had a smile on his face, looking very polite.

"Just here." Wen Qiu said as he took out the letter from his waist to be transferred to his family, as well as the small purse given by Ayu, and handed it over, "Old rule, turn around and send it to my mother, take this little money to drink tea." ”

Qin Jiang obviously didn't help her bring the letter for the first time, so he took it very casually, and then asked, "Didn't you mention that there was a little maid who also wanted to take the letter out?" ”

"Yes." After mentioning this, Wen Qiu finally took out the letter in the cuff, and at the same time there was a purse with a hundred patterns under S.

"The little girl who just came, she is a little ignorant, not only with a letter, but also with some money, don't be too troublesome, wait until next time I will ask her for tea and money to bring you."

Wen Qiu said politely, and kept silent not mentioning that the 100 Wen he gave earlier was Ayu's, and he became his favor.

Qin Jiang didn't care, he took the letter and looked at the address and said, "This place is a stopper, it's not a good thing." ”

The two were briefly polite again, Wen Qiu still had something to do, and quickly turned around and left.

On the side of the second gate, Qin Jiang also packed up his things and left.

After the two left, the doorkeeper was idle, and chattered along with the previous words.

"I heard that the newly brought in beauty a few days ago lives in the North Sixth Courtyard, there are so many people living in it, how can it be crowded."

"What can't be squeezed, except for the six ladies, everything else is gone......

"It seems to be."

The two chatted with relish, completely unaware that there was a dark shadow moving in the corridor, and it disappeared in a daze.

Ayu is still the same as when she came, first stealth, then use trees and rockeries as cover, and then hide from the next hiding place.

She ran with all her might, and the speed was extremely fast, and the distance of a few feet was dazzling.

After a short half of the journey, Wen Qiu changed the route, Ayu knew that the place where she lived was not in the back yard, and when she left, she saw no one left and right, so she went on the road from the shadow of the tree, bowed her head all the way, and planned to walk back like this.

Not long after dark, there were people coming and going on the road from time to time, and every time Ayu met, she would let go of a little maid and wait for those people to pass first.

After walking like this for two quarters of an hour, Ah Yu estimated that he should have arrived, and was thinking about where to climb over the wall to enter the courtyard, but he was a little dumbfounded. The road was almost the same, but the place was not right, and when she looked left and right, she didn't know where she had gone.

This......

Ayu was troubled, and just saw two mothers-in-law with lanterns coming from the stone bridge, and in a panic, she followed the pillar to the top of the cloister.

Ayu's ability to run fast is not limited to flat ground, as long as she balances the direction, she can climb walls and trees with just two feet, but she will not do this easily, because it is a problem to get down.

Crawling on the top of the corridor and waiting for the two mothers-in-law to pass, Ayu thought about it and didn't plan to come down, the line of sight on this is good, she can see the lights in the distance, the wall of the courtyard.

So she debated the direction, only to find that she had somehow turned back not far from the second gate.

No wonder there was a bridge, it turned out that I turned to the lake again.

This lake Ayu recognizes, as long as you follow the path and then run through the moon gate, you can almost get there.

However, there are many roads in the courtyard, and there is more than one moon gate, so in order not to make a mistake, she climbed all the way with the help of the top of the porch and the fence.

The night was dark and the moon was faint, and her figure crossed the curtain like a sharp arrow.

Mingxi Courtyard, the middle hall, Wei Li was holding a silver chopstick and picking up a piece of braised rabbit meat to be imported, but his movements froze and stopped.

"Your Highness, but this ......"

Zhou Jin, who was two steps away, wanted to ask his master if this meat was wrong, but before he finished speaking, Wei Li disappeared from his eyes, leaving behind the meat slices and silver chopsticks on the table.

"Huh?"

Zhou Jin's eyes widened, and he hurriedly ran out, and asked the two little eunuchs at the door, "What about Your Highness?" ”

A eunuch named Xiao Dongzi pointed to the roof.

His Royal Highness has all gone up to the beams of the house, is there an assassin?

Zhou Jin was frightened, went to the courtyard to look at the roof, and sure enough, he saw his master standing there, and there was a secret guard kneeling three steps away.

"Your Highness."

The dark three saluted on one knee, and some couldn't understand what the master was doing when he ran to it.

"There's a headwind."

Wei Li usually doesn't spit out more than three words in a row because of his stuttering, and everyone around him knows that at this time, Dark Qi silently repeated the words in his heart, and probably knew what the master meant when he ran up.

"Your Highness, my subordinates didn't notice the movement."

The night was pleasant, and except for a few bats that had just flown by, Dark Three really didn't notice anything. And His Highness said that there is a headwind, what is a headwind?

Dark San was still kneeling on one knee on the ground, Wei Li gave him a disdainful look, turned around and closed his eyes to concentrate, feeling the breath for a while, and making sure that the trace of strangeness had disappeared before slowly opening his eyes.

"Over there?"

Dark San got up and said goodbye seriously in the direction Wei Li pointed out, "It's the direction of the North Sixth Courtyard." ”

"North Sixth ......" has just entered a newcomer.

"Let's, dark five or six, staring."

Wei Li finished arranging and dodged down.

Dark San rarely sees his master move his real character, but every time he sees it, he can't help but feel ashamed of himself, but he is also a secret guard who jumps for a thousand miles, and his actions on the roof are not as clean as his own master.

Outside the wall of the back courtyard, Ayu finally arrived, and she couldn't enter through the gate during this time period, not only because she would be interrogated if she came back late, but also because the door was closed.

She estimated the direction under the wall, found the location of the bathhouse, and ran over the wall.

At this time, the bath is almost empty, and even if there is a little girl standing in the doorway, no one will notice the dark shadow that slowly slides down in the corner.

With her toes touching the ground, Ayu finally breathed a sigh of relief, she hung her head and walked back to the house quickly, took her clothes and hurried to the bath.

Zhao Hua returned from washing with Lu Qianjiao, and when she saw her unexpectedly, Zhao Hua said, "Ayu, where did you just go?" She searched the bathhouse and the laundry well several times, and thought that this person had been lost.

"I just had a chat with someone, and I'm a little late."

Ayu turned back and replied, her steps non-stopping.

Everyone was far away, and Zhao Yu didn't ask again, but he couldn't think of who Ayu was familiar with besides them.

"Zhao Yu, didn't you say before that you came back from the dining room and didn't see Ayu and her?"

Lu Qianjiao was still standing there looking at the direction Ayu left, if she was not mistaken just now, Ayu's skirt was dirty, and the cuffs seemed to have been scratched.

"yes, she'll be back first."

Zhao Yu didn't notice that, and went to the courtyard to dry his clothes with a basin.

At noon the next day, when the group went to the dining house to eat, Zhao Yu saw Wen Qiu and the little maid carrying the meal from a distance, and wanted to go over to ask about the situation of the letter brought yesterday, but was stopped by Ayu.

"Don't ask about the letter, since people have taken our work, they will do it, and it will be annoying to always ask."

If Ayu hadn't been cheeky yesterday, he would definitely have asked, but now that he knows, those things are not necessary.

Moreover, she felt that Wen Qiu probably didn't want to answer them anymore.
