Chapter 40: The Goddess of Wushan (8)

Concubine Zheng's voice stopped abruptly, and immediately, there was only deathly silence left in the room!

Ah Jiu shivered again.

He Bayu frowned and muttered, "You are wearing too thin, you will get sick if you continue like this." Where have your maids gone, and why haven't they come back yet? ”

As he was talking, he saw a maid cautiously flash out from the side, holding a thick cloak in her hand, and stammered: "Slave, slave maid has a cloak here." ”

He Bayu nodded, and didn't ask her where she got the cloak from, he reached out and took it, and personally draped it on Ah Jiu's body, then looked at her and frowned: "You are the new palace maid from Liangxi Pavilion?" ”

"Yes, yes...... The slave maid is called Light Green, who is new and is responsible for guarding the gate of Liangxi Pavilion. ”

"You? Looking at the gate? ”

He Bayu looked at Ah Jiu beside him and asked, "Is it the grandmother they replaced who originally came to see the door?" ”

"Well, Aunt Du said that they were old and were all released from the palace." Ah Jiu said absentmindedly.

"When?" He Bayu frowned and immediately asked.

"It's just that Your Majesty just left not long ago."

This time, after a long time, He Bayu said a soft "um", and then muttered to himself: "The queen mentioned it just now!" Put it away! Put it away! Very good, sure enough! ”

"Your Majesty......"

Ah Jiu looked at him curiously, but at this time, he heard a burst of anxious footsteps, and Xiao Yu's voice sounded in the distance: "What's wrong?" Why so many people? ”

Hearing her voice, He Bayu's face immediately sank, and before she could get closer, he scolded in a loud voice: "Where have you been?" Why are you coming back now? ”

Seeing that it was He Bayu, Xiao Yu hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the slave maid originally went to the kitchen to help the young lady get dinner, but when she got to the kitchen, the cook there said that she had prepared one less, let the slave and maid wait for a while, and poured a bowl of rice wine for the slave and maid to warm up."

After only one sip, the slave fell asleep and did not wake up until now, and the kitchen was empty.

Later, the slave maid met Master Dao Miao on the road...... This Huangci Nunnery didn't invite a cook at all, it was all the nuns who cooked by themselves, so they knew that it was not good, and hurriedly rushed back. ”

The more he listened, the more ugly He Bayu's face became, and he couldn't help but look at the shallow feather next to Xiaoyu, and said coldly: "You have also slept like this until now?" ”

Qianyu's face was pale at this time, and he nodded again and again: "Xiaoyu is right, that's exactly the case." ”

He Bayu pondered for a while, and then said lightly: "Okay, let's all get up!" ”

As he spoke, he looked around, but saw Queen Jiao not far from him.

It turned out that she had come out of the house with them, but she had not made a sound.

It wasn't until he searched for her that he found her standing beside him.

Seeing He Bayu looking at her, Empress Jiao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, is there something wrong?" ”

He Bayu frowned, hesitated for a moment and said, "I remember that you are next to Aunt Du, why did you change Aunt Qiu this time?" ”

When Empress Jiao heard this, her face turned pale, but she immediately knelt down and said with a look of remorse: "Your Majesty, when it comes to this matter, it is all the fault of the concubines. ”

"What is the queen doing, get up quickly, get up and speak."

He Bayu hurriedly let go of Ah Jiu's hand and pulled her up.
