Chapter 25: Seeing through the trick

The next day, on a hidden path in the Qi Palace, two sneaky people were talking to each other, and they were looking around from time to time, for fear that someone would pass by and be discovered.

"Is everything ready for my cousin?"

"Ready, No." One of the men pointed to something in his hand,

The other person took the things in the man's hand, and the man handed the things to the man, and the rough palm did not forget to touch the back of the man's hand, knowing that he had taken advantage of it, he laughed, and his mouth was full of big yellow teeth, which was disgusting.

"My cousin's hands are getting tenderer." The man seemed to be unsatisfied, and wanted to touch it again, but was glared at by the person opposite,

"You don't want to get an inch! If you miss the master's big thing, you and I can't get out of it! With that, he rubbed his hand on his clothes in disgust.

"Yes, yes..."Hearing the word master, the man's face was full of smiles.

"Let's go, the master has to report to the master after finishing his work."

The two of them walked on the path and walked in the direction of the west courtyard of the palace.

In the courtyard of the princess, Mo'er was cleaning the yard, just put down the broom in her hand, looked up and saw two people walking into the yard one after the other, Mo'er stepped forward and saw clearly, it was Lan Yu, the personal maid of Aunt Yuanying's room, and she also knew the person who followed behind, Zhang Quan in the kitchen, Zhang Quan's reputation was not very good, and the maids in the palace had to hide when they saw him, and Mo'er wondered what he was doing?

"Sister Mo'er." Lan Yu saw Mo'er walking towards her, and Shu Luode greeted her.

"Sister Lan Yu, what's the matter with being here?"

"Aunt Yuanying asked me to send some pastries to the princess." Lan Yu held up the food box for Mo'er to see clearly.

"Wait, I'll report." Mo'er turned and walked towards the house.

Mo'er saw Wanqing writing at the desk, tiptoed into the room, and seemed to notice that the princess saw her coming in.

"Princess, Aunt Yuanying's maid Lan Xin asks to see you."

"Oh? How did she come, did she come alone? "Wanqing knows that Lan Xin is Yuan Ying's personal maid, what is she here for?

"No, she's followed by Zhang Quan from the kitchen."

"So... Let them in. Wanqing hurriedly put down the pen in her hand, and Mama Feng next to her came over to tidy up her clothes for Wanqing, Mama Feng tidied up, and Wanqing sat at the table, waiting for the two to come in.

"Slave Lan Xin has seen the princess." Lan Xin walked in from outside the door and bowed his head respectfully, and Zhang Quan behind him also knelt down.

"What are you doing here?" Wanqing looked at the two kneeling on the ground sharply.

"Aunt Yuanying asked the slave maid to bring some pastries and let the princess taste them." Lan Yu lowered her head, feeling Wanqing's keen eyes, she couldn't help but shudder, pretending to be calm, Wanqing took her small movements into her eyes, and crossed Lan Xinwanqing's gaze fell on Zhang Quan behind Lan Yu, Zhang Quan felt that the princess was looking at him, and hurriedly said,

"The slave Zhang Quan has seen the princess!" Zhang Quan lowered his head, but the corner of his eyes fell on Wanqing's jade feet and the arm hanging on one side, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and infinite reverie had already begun in his mind.

Wanqing lazily supported her chin with one hand, raised her other hand from under the table, and put it on the tabletop, her fingers kept beating on the table, making a 'tuk tuk' sound, and the two people kneeling on the ground saw that Wanqing did not let the two of them get up, and they were already weak.

The sound of Wanqing banging on the table made the two of them almost lose their breath.

"Get up." Hearing the princess tell them to get up, the two of them looked relaxed and stood up from the ground.

"Aunt Yuan Ying said that the princess tasted each pastry, and told Zhang Quan the sweetness and taste of which pastry she liked, and asked him to send it to the princess regularly." Saying that, Lan Xin handed the food box to Mama Feng, Mama Feng took the food box, as early as the two of them came in, Mama Feng saw that he was sneaky, his eyes flickered, there must be fraud, Mama Feng opened the food box, the pastries were neatly placed inside, the taste of the pastries seemed to be wrong, Wanqing looked up and took all the actions of Mama Feng into her mind.

"Go back and tell her that she has a heart."

Lan Xin saw that Wanqing didn't mean to eat, and she must have been beaten up when she went back, and Lan Yu stood still with a embarrassed face.

"Anything else?" Wanqing looked at the two of them and didn't move, she didn't give them a chance, and they didn't blame themselves for being ruthless if they didn't grasp it.

"These pastries, I don't know what is more suitable for the princess's appetite, and I asked the princess to taste them one by one, and told Zhang Quan that next time he can sit with the princess and eat the smooth pastries." Thinking that Wanqing didn't understand, Lan Xin repeated what she had just said,

"If this princess doesn't eat, isn't she being told to be harsh to her aunt in the house?" Saying that, Wanqing looked for it on the food box, picked up a piece of pastry that was okay, and slowly put it to his mouth, the two people standing looked happy and expectant, and he had already begun to plan how to support Mo'er and the old woman he had never seen before, Mama Feng took Wanqing's hand from the side and whispered,

"Can't eat it! There's a ghost in there! ”

Seeing Wanqing stop the movements in his hand and move the pastry away from his mouth again, the expressions of the two of them began to become nervous and anxious again.

"There are too many pastries, I can't finish them alone, Mo'er gives Lan Xin and Zhang Quan a pair of chopsticks." Mo'er turned around and took the chopsticks and handed them to Lan Xin and Zhang Quan, Wanqing motioned for the two of them to sit down, and the two took the chopsticks in their hands and looked at each other, but never sat down.

"What? What are you afraid of? When the two of them heard Wanqing's words, their faces instantly became cloudy, if this matter can't be done, I'm afraid that if I go back, I'm afraid I will die if I go back, anyway, it's all death, gamble once!

Lan Xin pretended to be calm and sat down, and Zhang Quan sat down when he saw Lan Xin sitting down.

"Eat?"

"The slave doesn't dare to eat first, and I hope the princess will eat first." Lan Xin looked at Wanqing, and Wanqing picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth. Watching Wanqing swallow the pastry in her mouth, Lan Yu hesitated, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth, Zhang Quan saw that Lan Xin ate it, he also ate the pastry, and then the two of them lost consciousness.

Feng Mochen originally returned to the mansion from outside because of some trivial matters, and heard two maids discussing things in a whisper, and he didn't care at first, when he heard the princess's two words, Feng Mochen stopped, and one of them said,

"Did you hear it when you passed by the princess's courtyard just now?" The other maid put her index finger to her mouth, signaling the maid who spoke to make a small voice,

"Well, the princess and princess are really affectionate, and during the day..."

"yes." The two didn't notice that Feng Mochen was standing not far from them, and said as they walked, getting farther and farther away from Feng Mochen.
