Xiao Ying'er saw that her eldest brother and mother didn't ask about her homework, and she was secretly happy. There has been nothing to do in the palace for a long time, at this time, there are guests coming from afar, and the people in the entire palace are busy, Xiao Ying'er watched a group of people coming and going, and felt fresh and interesting at first, but after watching it for a while, she suddenly felt bored.

Li Xianru has always not allowed Xiao Ying'er to go out alone, and occasionally let Xiao Yilan take Xiao Ying'er out for a walk. Xiao Yilan was taken captive for several months, and then came back once and went south in less than a day, during which she naturally had no time to take Xiao Ying'er out, Xiao Ying'er was bored and panicked, seeing that Li Xianru was busy dealing with the affairs of the Liu family and couldn't take care of herself, she began to think about sneaking out of the city again.

Xiao Ying'er tried to slip out of the gate of the palace many times, so that several guards at the gate knew her temperament very well, but Li Xianru clearly explained to the guards at the gate, and the guards were already immune to her coquettish offensive. Xiao Ying'er deliberately dismissed the maid, and also changed clothes with a maid, dressed as a maid, and wanted to get through the trick, but she still returned in vain. Ignoring the wry smile of the guards at the gate, she grimaced and walked back sullenly.

She had to come to the east wall of the palace again, she had been depressed in the palace all these years, and she had already figured out the layout of the palace, so she knew that there was a low wall here, about three feet shorter than the other walls, and there were some broken gaps in the eaves, which were easy to climb. Xiao Ying'er skillfully turned over and climbed up and sat on the wall. This is one of her daily pastimes, but she has been in the palace for too long recently, and she is depressed, and she is not very interested in looking at Liyungang in the distance, and she just wants to sneak out of the city.

The palace is located on a high slope, just outside the east wall, so although there is only a wall, the outside of the wall looks much higher than the ground in the palace. Xiao Ying'er sat facing outward, a pair of small feet dangling in the air, her eyes hanging on the ground under her feet a little distracted. If you jump off the wall, you can get out. She thought unconsciously.

She was in a trance for a moment, her hands propped up on the wall, her feet continued to shake, and suddenly she had the urge to jump.

"Hey, it's the other way around, you should jump this way down the wall!" Xiao Ying'er suddenly heard an exclamation, came back to her senses, quickly stabilized her body, turned around, and saw a handsome young man, with good-looking willow eyebrows slightly bent along with the smiling face. Xiao Ying'er smiled: "You almost scared me to fall!"

The young man shrugged noncommittally: "Then it's better for you to come down, don't be scared by me again." “

Xiao Ying'er skillfully climbed down the wall and looked at the young man, he was dressed in a dark long robe, dressed very exquisitely, and had a golden bear head badge pinned to his chest. Xiao Ying'er was suddenly curious: "You're not from the palace, are you?"

The young man showed a surprised expression and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you little girl to know quite a lot." Are you being scolded by the young lady and getting angry? It's dangerous to jump off such a high wall. ”

Xiao Ying'er remembered that she was still wearing the clothes of a maid, and she didn't explain, saying: "It's true that I'm depressed, but I wasn't scolded by Mrs. Miss." You're the same boy they call you, right? What's your name?"

When the young man saw that a maid knew his identity, he did not salute, and his tone was direct and unceremoniously, so he could not help but look at him differently, and asked, "Then what is your name?" ”

Xiao Ying'er tilted her head sideways and thought for a while, then said with a smile: "Miss called me Xiaoxi." ”

"It's a nice name. My name is Liu Binyuan. Are you Miss's maid?" asked Liu Binyuan with a smile.

Xiao Ying'er heard him praise his maid's name for being good, and she laughed secretly in her heart, and she didn't know whether to be happy for Xiaoxi, but her face was silent: "That's right!"

Liu Binyuan nodded, seemed to have some worries, and asked, "What kind of person is your young lady?"

"Our young lady is beautiful, mother...... Madame often praised her for being beautiful, kind-hearted, intelligent, and ingenious...... "When she saw Liu Binyuan mention herself, she couldn't wait to add all the nice things she knew, and she believed them."

Liu Binyuan heard her praise for this young lady, and naturally knew that he couldn't believe it. He suddenly laughed and said, "I don't believe what you said, it's enough for your young lady to be half as beautiful as you." ”

Xiao Ying'er's face was red, from the root of her ears to her cheeks, she lowered her head, and heard others praise her beauty, although she was a little embarrassed, she was very happy in her heart.

Liu Binyuan also reacted that this was inappropriate, so he turned his head away and stopped talking. After a while, Xiao Ying'er blinked her eyes and asked, "Why are you so interested in our young lady?"

Liu Binyuan's face turned red, turned his head sideways, shook his head, and said, "Uncle is in a hurry, I have to go to see Mrs. Xiao and the son." Leave. He walked halfway, suddenly turned around, and said, "What I said today, please don't tell Miss Xiaoxi, thank you." After speaking, he didn't wait for Xiao Ying'er to agree, turned around and walked in the direction of Dongyuan, as if he firmly believed that this maid would do what he said.

Xiao Ying'er looked at his back and couldn't help but smile evilly. She remembered that her eldest brother and mother usually received guests in the Facing Sea Hall, so she planned to follow along the way to hear what the Liu family's plans were.

She deliberately waited for Liu Bin to go far away before walking towards the sea hall. When she came to the outside of the sea hall, across the long corridor in front of the door, she vaguely saw Xiao Yizhan and Li Xianru sitting in the main seat, and on the guest seat were Liu Binyuan and a thin middle-aged man, who must be Liu Binyuan's uncle.

In addition to Liu Binyuan and the middle-aged man, what attracted Xiao Ying'er's attention even more was the open space in front of her, more than a dozen boxes were neatly placed in the open space outside the hall, and there were more than 30 Liu family entourage, standing respectfully by the box. Xiao Ying'er was outside the sea hall and couldn't hear what was being said inside, and the guards at the door specially instructed her to discuss important matters inside, so she had to wait outside and look inside from time to time.

After about a meal, Xiao Ying'er finally waited for the four of them to walk out of the sea hall, and she didn't know why she was so patient today. The middle-aged man seemed to want to open the box to show Xiao Yizhan and Li Xianru, but Li Xianru hurriedly stopped him, and seemed to say something with a smile. After Liu Binyuan saluted the middle-aged man, he led the Liu family's entourage to withdraw, but did not carry the box. Li Xianru seemed to want to say something, but she never said it, just followed the two to the door.

When Xiao Ying'er saw Liu Binyuan coming out, she didn't dodge it, and looked at Liu Binyuan with a smile. Liu Bin came out from afar, and when he saw Xiao Ying'er, he was stunned at first, and then said with a smile: "Why is Miss Xiaoxi here?"

The guards at the door of the sea hall heard Liu Binyuan call Xiao Ying'er Xiaoxi, their faces were a little strange, but no one asked out loud, they had already known about this young lady's eccentricity, and they expected that it was her prank. Liu Binyuan and Liu Guanglei noticed something strange and looked at each other. Xiao Ying'er looked cunning and didn't explain, tilted her head and smiled proudly: "You can come, why can't I come?"

Liu Guanglei frowned slightly, thinking that the maid from where she came from was so ignorant of the rules, but it was inconvenient for her to have a seizure, Liu Binyuan just felt funny, and replied, "Naturally, I can come." ”

"Ying'er, what are you messing around again, why are you dressed up like this?" Li Xianru's voice came from the door, Liu Binyuan and Liu Guanglei turned around, only to see Li Xianru and Xiao Yizhan looking at the girl wearing maid clothes outside the door with some surprise.

Liu Binyuan's face was full of astonishment, looking at Xiao Ying'er, he was speechless for a while, and the content in his eyes could be described as complicated. And Xiao Ying'er showed a smug smile that had succeeded in her prank, ran to Li Xianru's side, and stuck out her tongue at Liu Binyuan. Li Xianru glared at her fiercely.
