Chapter 40: The Palace Draft

Wait, wait, wait...... In addition to waiting or waiting.

Every time I asked if there was any news of Yelujing, Yeluhuang always said that I should wait, didn't he ask me to help him, and he was not in a hurry.

I rubbed the ground with my feet, and when I looked up, I saw a young bud in the gap of the rockery. Now that winter is over, how did this bud grow?

Recently, the Eastern Wu Dynasty has been talking about a major event, that is, at the end of spring, it sent troops to take the initiative to attack the Western Empire, because at that time, the Eastern Wu Dynasty had accumulated enough grain, grass and materials after the whole spring of sheep grass was fertilizing, and there was enough time for the Western Empire to consume. The current war is just that the Eastern Wu Dynasty is delaying time with the Western Kingdom.

"Girl, does anyone want to see you?" Suddenly, someone was thinking about me, and I looked back at the maid Momiji that the housekeeper had found a few days ago.

Who else wants to see me in this place? Let's go and see it first, "Take me to see it." ”

"I'm already here." Follow the voice and look over, the voice ...... It's him!

"Why are you here?" My eyes widened, aren't they enemies? Seeing this, Momiji retreated.

Even though he was wearing a mask, I could hear him snort unabashedly, "Do you think enemies will always be enemies?" Friends and foes can also be enemies. His eyes finally saw clearly in the sun's rays, but they were so deep that he couldn't see the bottom. In this way, they are now "friends" again.

"Aren't you grateful to your savior?" He suddenly approached and startled me.

"That's the right expression. Don't think that with Yeluhuang protecting you, I won't dare to do anything to you? "I was confused as he walked away.

"Protect me"? "What about me"? Is that what you're looking for to tell me? The masked man is really not normal.

"Girl, what are you laughing at?" Momiji, who had just exited, walked over and looked at me strangely, and then at the back of the slightly angry one.

Was I just laughing? I scratched my head, even if it was a sneer.

"It's fine." I replied. Although the butler said that this was a new maid to serve me, the intuition was not so simple, just like the butler and the owner of this mansion.

"By the way, the prince instructed the girl to go to the front hall to find him after she saw someone." Momiji suddenly said as if he remembered something.

I hurriedly cheered up, it seems that there is news from Yelujing's side.

The fuchsia wheelchair was facing away from me, and the air smelled of sandalwood with the smell of history. This wheelchair should be made of fine sandalwood.

A bumpy face turned around, and this time, it didn't have the same fear as when I saw it the first time.

"I don't know if Lord Huang has a little ...... News of the net prince? ”

"Yes." A neat word was spit out by him, but there was no follow-up. His gaze rounded me and looked out the door, not knowing what he was looking at. I looked behind me, and there was nothing, and then I looked at him, and there was still no reaction, and just when I thought he had forgotten that I was here, his eyes finally returned to the house.

"Yelujing will come to the royal city tomorrow, and I will arrange for you to meet, but ......" He looked at me deeply, revealing a worried expression, which made my heart rejoice and couldn't help but drop half a point of heat.

Suddenly I noticed the small purple bottle in his hand, and I seemed to understand a little, how can I make a chess piece obedient, I'm afraid it has always been this trick. I sneered to myself in my heart, and sure enough, I still didn't believe me, but it was normal.

"I'm afraid Lord Huang still doesn't believe me, and I don't mind drinking another bottle of poison." I crouched down and looked at him quietly.

"Hahaha!" He laughed, his eyes showing appreciation, in fact, I just ate a long one. Then he handed me the purple bottle in his hand and said, "Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, I will definitely give you an antidote." ”

I took the pill in the bottle in front of him and didn't react after eating. What if the antidote is given or not? But it is impossible to make me obediently obey orders by this method, although I am very greedy for life and afraid of death, but he, I must not be able to trust.

Until late at night, lying in bed, I was still thinking about what to say when we met, and asked him why he didn't remember me, and there was still something unspeakable......

Although I don't know how I fell asleep, but early in the morning, Momiji came in, changed me into a new dress, a slender waist, not as loose and fat as the Western Appendix, and then pushed me to the bronze mirror, combed a new kind of sideburns, that is, directly scattered all the hair, and then only wore a small thing on the top of the head. I raised my eyebrows to see the tassel hanging down from my forehead, which ...... Could it be Dongwu's costume?

An ordinary sedan chair walked through the street, bustling outside, but I didn't have the mind to wait and see, sitting upright, saying that I wasn't nervous was a bit fake, I was nervous that I had met Yelujing once before, and this time Yeluhuang asked me to go in in the name of the palace maid, I don't know if I will be driven out by Yelujing.

"It's here, girl, get out of the car." The butler's voice, "There is the palace in front, I can only send you here, the prince has already placed people in it, and someone will help you choose to enter the palace of the net prince when the time comes." "Hand me a baggage.

I thanked him and walked forward. No matter what Yeluhuang is, but this butler feels good, and it is rare for someone like him to have such subordinates.

A palace gate that is completely different from the Western Kingdom stands in front of you, all snow-white, solemn but not gorgeous, plain but domineering, this is the palace of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

There is already a large number of young women queuing up at the gate of the palace, and I heard that these days are the days when the palace begins to choose palace maids. I exhaled and lined up.

When the names were registered, they were arranged into a room, and there were five girls who came in together, they were all playing and smiling, I don't quite understand why I was so happy when I entered the palace, didn't they all enter the palace door as deep as the sea? Wu sighed to himself.

But sometimes that's it, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop, and the alien is always easy to target. They often looked at me and pointed at me, saying that I was a strange person, and that any prince who was so poor and sour could take a fancy to me. They are still just talking about it, but they haven't put it into action, so I'll put up with it.

The general slept all night, and as soon as the morning dawned, he was called out by a woman in charge, about thirty years old, with a stern face, it seemed that he should be an examiner.

As soon as the examiner gave the order, it began, which was nothing more than piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I don't really understand, why don't you just be a palace maid? The requirements are quite high. Fortunately, Yeluhuang gave me a few lessons in advance, as long as it wasn't too big a mistake, it should have passed, why are you so sure, because when the examiner heard my name, he glanced at me and nodded, it seems that this is the person arranged by Yeluhuang.

After three days of trying, more than half of those who stayed were gone, including me.

"Jasmine, you go to the palace to serve." The examiner begins to announce the results.

"Yes."

"Du Nu, you go to the men's hall to serve."

"The slave family knows." It seems that he is reluctant, and he doesn't know what kind of place this south hall is.

"Leisurely, you go to the Pure King Palace."

"Yes." I replied in a low voice, I went in so smoothly and suddenly my heart was a little unsteady, let's take one step at a time, it's good to enter the palace of Yelujing.

"Lord Atta, yes...... Does the net prince not remember the past? "I followed behind Atta, and I heard them all call her like this, but I didn't expect that the Eastern Wu Dynasty not only had strange clothes, but also had a very special name, and besides, women can also have an official and a half-position after the king.

Atta suddenly glanced back at me, then looked around again, and then whispered, "You have to know the purpose of your trip, you must ask less questions and observe more, and leave your own affairs alone." ”

Seeing her so cautious, I couldn't help but shudder, although it was not the palace of the Western Kingdom, but it was also the emperor's house, how could I forget this taboo.

I bowed my head and confessed, "The slave family knows." ”

"It's good to know, let's go." She continued to walk forward, and did not speak again all the way, and it was indeed not easy for someone to sit in the seat of examiner in the palace.

The three big characters of "Jingwang Palace......" are really eye-catching.

"Lord Atta is well!" When the two guards saw us, they immediately put the five fingers of their right hand together and stroked their left chest, and bent down to salute.

"Well, this is Prince Jing's new palace maid, take her in."

"Yes." One of the guards looked at me and replied.

After Atta finished speaking, he left without looking back, and I had to let the guard lead him to a place similar to the kitchen, and then shouted inside: "Youli, there is a new person coming, you can arrange it." ”

Then a woman with dirty hair came out of it, and although her face was covered with dust, she could still see that she was very good-looking.

I looked at her in a daze, she scratched her head embarrassedly, pulled me in, and said as she walked, "This is my first time cooking, I wanted to surprise Prince Jing, but it seems to be ...... Something went wrong. ”

I "coughed" a few times, and there was a miasma of smoke inside, and there was a little mistake, it was just terrible.

"Youli, you will definitely be scolded by Prince Jing again." The guard had just followed, and seemed to be no stranger to her behavior.

"Shhh After speaking, he turned his gaze to me, took my hand, and looked expectant: "Do you know how to cook?" Can you teach me? After saying that, he shook my hand from side to side.

I looked at the young woman in front of me in a daze, obviously she was like a child, how could she come here to sit as a palace maid? No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it. However, it's always good to have multiple friends, "I will." ”

She jumped up for joy when she heard this, and I couldn't help laughing, and sure enough, laughter is contagious.
