Chapter 320: Pretending to be asleep
After Zhao Kuo and He Jin played chess for a while, Lu Zhu led Liu Yan to the courtyard to familiarize themselves with the environment.
The sound of the two of them talking wafted through the air.
"This is the courtyard where the general and the princess live, the general and the princess like to be quiet, don't walk around in the mansion if you have nothing to do on weekdays, let alone come to this Zhaoyue courtyard, so as not to disturb the general and the princess to rest."
"Yes, I see, thank you for your advice." Liu Yan's voice sounded respectful.
"It's not a matter of guidance, it's just that the state has national laws and family rules, since you have entered the Zhao Mansion, you must abide by the rules of the Zhao Mansion. If you break the house rules, no one can protect you. ”
"Don't worry, Miss Green Bead, I will follow the rules." Liu Yan obediently complied with the peace.
"I'll take you into the house to meet the general and the princess, and Mr. He, you come with me."
"There is Miss Lao Luzhu to lead the way."
Hearing that Lu Zhu was going to bring Liu Yan into the house, Qiao Jinyu gently put the book in her hand on her body, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
"The slave has seen the general, princess." Green beads bend their knees and bless their bodies.
Liu Yan followed the movements of the green beads, but his eyes quietly lifted, and he looked at the few people in the room quietly.
Zhao Kuo and Qiao Jinyu knew each other.
Sitting opposite Zhao Kuo, a person wearing brocade clothes and a person with outstanding style, she guessed that it was Mr. He in Luzhu's mouth.
Lu Zhu didn't tell her what He Jinzhi did, and she guessed that it should be a friend who was familiar with Zhao Kuo.
If he wasn't a friend, Zhao Kuo wouldn't have played against him.
Zhao Kuo and He Jinzhi are playing chess.
He thought that Qiao Jinyu would beckon Lu Zhu to get up politely, so he didn't care.
No one let him get up, and the green beads didn't dare to move, and always maintained a bent knee posture.
The servant girls who can enter the Zhao Mansion on errands and serve by the master's side have all been selected and trained at various levels, and it is naturally difficult to stand on their knees for a while.
But the willow smoke behind her was miserable.
Yesterday, Liu Yan knelt for several hours in a row, and his knees were blue.
Even walking hurts, let alone holding the knee bend position for a long time, is nothing short of torture for her.
A tingling pain came, and Liu Yan felt as if a broken needle was pricking her in her knee.
But Zhao Kuo and Qiao Jinyu didn't make a sound to let her and Lu Zhu get up, she didn't even dare to move.
She raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Kuo and He Jinzhi, and finally moved her gaze to Qiao Jinyu.
Seeing that Qiao Jinyu's eyes were closed and her expression was peaceful, she actually fell asleep, she gritted her teeth.
At this hour, I'm afraid I'm not pretending to be asleep and deliberately torturing her, right?
It's a pity that he indulged in doubts, and Liu Yan could only keep his doubts in his heart.
It was quiet in the house.
There is only the occasional sound of black and white pieces falling on the board.
After a while, he found that Luzhu was still in the room, Zhao Kuo raised his eyes and glanced to the side, only to find that Qiao Jinyu had fallen asleep at some point.
His black eyes flashed slightly, he looked at the green beads, and said, "If it's okay, let's step back first." ”
He also heard the conversation between Lu Zhu and Liu Yan, and naturally knew that Lu Zhu was just leading people to take a look.
His gaze touched the face behind the green bead, and his eyes froze slightly.
He has already asked the little servant in the mansion to tell Liu Yan that there is no shortage of servants in the Zhao Mansion, and he doesn't need Liu Yan to repay his kindness, how could Liu Yan be here?
Remembering Qiao Jinyu's displeasure when he mentioned Liu Yan yesterday, Zhao Kuo said again: "Luzhu, you go and call Uncle Zhao over, I have something I want to ask him." ”
"Yes, General, wait a minute."
The green bead that was about to retire blessed his body, and led Liu Yan down.
After the people left, He Jinzhi glanced at the person who opened his eyes on the soft chair and picked up the book again to continue reading, and the smile on his face was very playful.
"Girl, you were pretending to be asleep just now?"
