Xing Shi left the palace, and it was already past noon.

Su Mingtang had already sent someone to wait at the gate of the palace and went all the way back to Su Mansion.

The news that Su Baitong was left in the palace spread immediately.

Although the Xing family brought back a lot of rewards, they were all given to Su Baitong, and she wanted to stay first, but Su Mingtang directly ordered someone to carry them to Meishuangju.

Old lady Su **calm face**. "I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, but it's too early for you to rejoice."

Su Mingtang asked Xing, "You tell me again, why did the emperor keep that girl in the palace?" ”

Xing's Zhiwu said: "The emperor wants to see her make incense with his own eyes, but this child is a dead eye, and he can't make incense in front of others, so the emperor gave her a five-day limit......"

"Nonsense!" Old lady Su slapped the table on the mountain, "Who does she think she is, she dares to precondition on the emperor!" He pointed at Su Mingtang, "I said a long time ago, this ** is unacceptable, she is going to roast our Su Mansion on the fire!" ”

Su Mingtang was scolded by his father for splitting his head and covering his face. I was so aggrieved in my heart, but their house has always been praised by the world for filial piety, and he had taught Su Baitong unfilial piety before, so he could only swallow all the words back into his stomach.

At this moment, the chief steward came in from outside and said, "Father-in-law Jia is here, saying that he is here to get the eldest lady's incense-making tools." ”

Su Mingtang was stunned.

Father-in-law Jia walked in with a smile. "Our family was ordered by the emperor to get Miss Su's incense-making tools, and please ask Master Su to lead the way, don't delay the hour."

Su Mingtang could only **head up** and took Jia's father-in-law to Meishuangju.

Along the way, he wanted to test the words from Father-in-law Jia's mouth, so he knocked on the side.

Gonggong Jia always had a smile on his face, he had been in the palace for so many years, he was already an old fox, and he didn't take Su Mingtang in his eyes at all.

Seeing Mei Shuangju, Father-in-law Jia suddenly said: "Our family shouldn't talk too much, but for the sake of Miss Su's face, our family will remind you of it." ”

Su Mingtang hurriedly bowed his hand: "Thank you, father-in-law." ”

Father-in-law Jia said arrogantly, "Over the years. Presumably Lord Su didn't take your long ** to heart, but at this time and that time, Miss Su is now what it used to be, and these words must be understood by our family without saying it. ”

After that, Father-in-law Jia left the stunned Su Mingtang and entered the hospital.

Hui Xiang was waiting there early.

Su Baitong couldn't take her with her when she entered the palace, so she stayed in Meishuangju honestly.

Hearing that Gonggong Jia was going to bring incense-making tools into the palace, Huixiang hurriedly went to fetch the things that Su Baitong needed.

Father-in-law Jia smiled and asked the little chamberlain next to him to take over the tools, and then he said in a low voice: "Miss Su asked our family to give a word, when she is not there, you have to take care of her pets, don't walk around." Wait for her to come back. ”

Huixiang has long learned to observe the face after following Su Baitong these days, and immediately understood what Father-in-law Jia meant.

It's just some ordinary incense-making tools, but Su Baitong deliberately asked the palace to take a lot of trouble to get it, in order to pass a message to her, asking her to take the rice balls and never leave Meishuangju.

Su Baitong didn't know how many days she would have to stay in the palace this time before she could come back, and she was worried that the Xing family would secretly attack.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Huixiang hurriedly saluted, "The slaves and maids have all written down, and I also ask my father-in-law to bring a message to our young lady, there are rice balls, she doesn't have to worry." ”

Seeing that she understood the meaning of his words, Father-in-law Jia nodded with a smile and went back with the little waiter.

Palace.

Su Baitong carefully counted her incense-making tools.

The emperor sat on the throne with a teacup and watched her every move.

Father-in-law Jia served by Su Baitong's side. asked softly: "Miss Su can be cleared, there is nothing missing, right?" ”

Su Baitong raised his head and smiled at Father-in-law Jia, and instantly understood each other's deep meaning in each other's eyes, "No less, thank you Father-in-law Jia for bothering." ”

"Now that the tools are ready, I wonder how many days you will be able to make incense?" The Emperor asked in a deep voice.

Su Baitong thought for a moment, "If there is a helper, it will be faster, and it will be done in three to four days...... If there is no helper, I am afraid that it will take about five days. "That Qi country's detective has been arrested for five days, if he can't unravel the strange spell on him under the Qi people insect mother within ten days, he will **** to death, and then they won't be able to review any information.

"What else is needed?" The emperor asked.

"Quiet house, three meals as long as vegetarian food, water."

The emperor was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Su Baitong to be a non-meat eater.

He didn't say anything, though, just nodded.

Father-in-law Jia had already made preparations, and it didn't take long for everything to be arranged.

"It's just this helper...... There's really nothing we can do. Father-in-law Jia wiped the hot sweat on his head and said apologetically.

The helper Su Baitong needs is not something that just anyone can do.

At this moment, a small chamberlain hurriedly walked in and said something in Jia's father-in-law's ear.

Father-in-law Jia came to the emperor's side lightly, "Your Majesty, the national teacher sent someone over, saying that he could act as Miss Su's helper." ”

The Emperor put down the teacup in his hand, "Bring it in." ”

Su Baitong turned his head, and after a while, he saw Gonggong Jia walking away without a trace. br/>

Su Baitong only felt his heart skip a beat: How could it be him? Isn't he a guard next to the national teacher, how can he act as her assistant in making incense!

A blanket gaze swept over her as if it were nothing.

"I've seen the emperor." Leave no trace to salute.

"The national teacher sent you to be Miss Su's helper?" The Emperor also felt something strange.

"My subordinates have been with the national teacher all year round, and I have also learned a few hand-made incense alchemy techniques." Traceless returns. On the ** agricultural number.

The emperor nodded, "Since it was recommended by the national teacher...... Then you can help Miss Su make the incense as soon as possible, and I can see how her incense restrains the strange art of Qi people and insects! ”

At the end of the summons, Su Baitong followed Gonggong Jia to the Shizuka Hall on the side.

Traceless had been following behind them, his steps were extremely light, if he hadn't known in advance that he was following those, Su Baitong wouldn't have noticed that there was someone behind him.

Although the Shizukaden area is not large, it is very secluded.

All parts of the hall were cleaned, and when Gonggong Jia left, he also left a small chamberlain, and he instructed Su Baitong to say: "If you need anything, hit him to do it." ”

Su Baitong thanked Father-in-law Jia, "I still need some ** materials in a while, and I will make a list of them then." ”

Father-in-law Jia should all be inherited.

Naturally, there will be no shortage of these things in the palace, Su Baitong made a list, and after a while, the little chamberlain took all the ** materials and spices she needed.

"What does Miss Su need me to do, just ask." Traceless sat down on the other side of the table.

Su Baitong lowered his eyes and pushed a few ** materials over, "All of them are finely cut, the size should be all the same, uniform, these two should go to the ** ...... first"

Su Baitong deliberately said it quickly, and did not repeat it.

Traceless listened to it and didn't ask a second time, went to the basin on the side to clean his hands, and then came back to get the table. br/>

Su Baitong secretly glanced at it, and saw that he was skilled in swordsmanship, and the **fine material cut out** was like a snowflake, and it fell into the incense plate one after another......

Looking at this technique, he definitely knows how to make incense.

However, Su Baitong's heart was even more suspicious**, if this person can make incense, why did he appear next to the national teacher as a guard, he has been sending her money and things in the name of Su Mingtang for the past ten years, is it all him?

This man looked to be no more than twenty years old, and if that were the case, ten years ago...... He was a young man who was not yet weak, could he have known her existence since then......
