Chapter 1002: Wisdom Invites Emperor Xuan (3)
Long Ziyue's beautiful eyes turned slightly, then raised her lips slightly, took out a brocade box from the bracelet, and handed it to Xiao Tong, "This is the cake of the dragon clan, take the trouble to bring it to the high priest to taste."
The boy answered, and left with the food box.
Nan Lingyu twisted his eyebrows, looked at the figure of the little boy leaving, and snorted softly, "Senior sister, that box of pastries will go into that little child's belly."
Long Ziyue nodded and said with a smile: "I know"
"You know? Then you still ......."
"He has short hands and a soft mouth, and when he accepts our pastries, he naturally wants to help us more, after all, he is a disciple of the high priest, and his words are much heavier than ours."
"I see" Nan Lingyu smiled clearly, and then looked at Long Ziyue with a smile, the corners of his eyes curled a little with pleasure, "It seems that this time, we don't have to wait too long"
Long Ziyue chuckled and nodded, the corners of her eyebrows raised.
Two hours later, the figure of the little boy entered the outer hall again.
"The pastry chef has already eaten it, and the master said that for the sake of you as an old man, I can consider helping you once, but it is not easy to restart the Holy Spirit Domain, and the master will have to prepare for a few more days"
"Thank you High Priest for that," Long Ziyue said with a smile
The little boy replied casually, his eyes looked at the dishes on the tea table, the desire in his eyes was obvious, Long Ziyue smiled lightly, as if he couldn't see the pastry crumbs on the corner of the child's lips, and took a food box from the other side, handed it to the little boy, and said: "The high priest must have studied the formation all day long and has not eaten yet, please bring these dishes to the high priest."
"Well, I'll bring it to the master" Xiao Tong took it with a smile, and then left with a little short leg humming, his immature little face was full of smiles, obviously in a good mood.
Long Ziyue bent her lips, returned to the tea table and sat down, picked up the lotus root and put it in her mouth, feeling the fragrance between her lips and teeth, and the soft light quietly crossed her eyes.
These lotus roots were picked for her by Phantom Night when she returned to the Wind Spirit.
Fresh lotus roots, soaked in clear spring water, filled with a full spring pool.
In the five years when she disappeared, Phantom Night planted lotus in all the pools in the mansion, picking lotus roots every lotus root season, and more than a dozen clear ponds in the Holy Tilt Palace, the figure of Phantom Night can be seen everywhere.
He always remembered her preferences and waited for her return.
Day and night, every minute and every second.
"Senior sister, what reason do you think that little kid will find next time?" Nan Lingyu's question interrupted Long Ziyue's contemplation, and Long Ziyue thought for a moment and raised her eyes slightly.
Putting down the chopsticks, Long Ziyue chuckled and asked, "Senior sister, you also lived here for a day, have you found any abnormalities in this mansion?" ”
Nan Lingyu twisted his eyebrows when he heard this, and thought carefully for a while, but he couldn't think of anything abnormal, and couldn't help but look at Long Ziyue suspiciously, "Senior sister, what's abnormal?" ”
Long Ziyue smiled and said clearly: "This mansion is not small, and there are more than a dozen palaces, but there is only one disciple in such a large mansion, and there is not half a maidservant, and there are not even any guards, doesn't the senior sister feel strange?" ”
After Long Ziyue said this, Nan Lingyu also felt abnormal, "That's right, such a big mansion, even if you don't have a maidservant to wait, there should be a small maid to clean up, and there should be a cook to prepare meals, these chores can't be done by Huang Xuan himself, right?" ”
"I went to the courtyard before, and found that the flowers and herbs in the courtyard were very messy, and it seemed that no one had pruned them for a long time, and I thought, is there some secret that the high priest can't be known, so he dismissed the maidservants of the mansion."
