Chapter 275: Where is the princess's grave?
Hearing the cat's footsteps, the little girl immediately stopped crying. Red, swollen eyes looked at her.
After seeing the cat's rough maidservant clothes, she immediately cooled her beautiful little face, which was a little dirty, and said like a tiger cub that was beginning to be intimidated, with teeth and claws, "Go away! No ventilation!"
Cat: "Uh...... Are you?"
"I'm the fifth lady of the Huaining Palace." Lingqian glared at the cat.
The cat understood.
I heard that the youngest daughter of King Huaining is a crying bag, crying day and night for the princess to kiss her mother.
However, after giving birth to the fourth and fifth misses, the princess died of postpartum hemorrhage.
The fourth lady is normal and accepts that she has no real mother. But Miss Fifth has been making trouble, and she has to be a mother.
In order to appease her, King Huaining, who was originally going to be alone all his life, was also ready to continue the string.
Now is the time to choose a concubine, and the daughters of the major families have all handed over their names to the Guogong Mansion, and they don't mind coming over to be the stepmother of the five children.
It is not difficult to understand, not to mention the peerless countenance of King Huaining, just the power that he can cover the sky with one hand in the court, as well as Xuanhe's wealth, no one can resist.
And King Huaining has only one request for the step-princess, that is, to let the fifth lady accept it.
If the fifth lady does not accept it, no matter how good the other party is, it will be His Majesty's marriage, and King Huaining will not agree.
Miss Five became the target of being chased by everyone for a while.
It's not hard to understand that he's hiding here now.
"The slave promises not to report the news. But it's too cold here, so the fifth lady and the slave maid should go into the room and take shelter." The cat stretched out its hand to Lingqian.
Lingqian looked at her, then her hand...... The originally vigilant look gradually relaxed.
"What's your name?"
"Cats."
"Cats...... My mother likes cats the most." Lingqian put her dirty little hand in the cat's palm and ordered, "Wait for Miss Ben to wash."
"Okay." The cat smiled and picked her up, she looked like her little face was round, but she was so thin that there were only a handful of bones left, and it was as light as hugging a kitten, and there was no meat on her buttocks, which made people feel distressed, "Didn't Miss Fifth eat well?"
"After washing, let's go out of the house and go to the restaurant, Miss Ben has money." Lingqian took out a silver ticket of 100,000 taels from his purse.
The cat's eyes widened instantly, "That's, it's too much!"
"And this." Lingqian took out a few more gold beads from her purse.
"......" The cat was completely speechless.
Sure enough, it's a young lady from a rich family!
Half an hour later, the cat took Lingqian's little hand and wandered the street.
The cat has no memory, and he has no impression of the capital, so he is excited to see the bustling street market.
"How old are you, cat?" Out of the palace, Lingqian's mood was obviously much brighter, and her eyes were shining, like the stars in the sky.
For beauties, regardless of age or gender, simply liking it is enough to make people very happy, and cats feel very honored.
"I don't remember much, look at the body, fifteen or sixteen?" Cats are not so sure, because some people may be thin and thin all their lives, with no ups and downs......
Not far from them, in the Yunji Restaurant.
A handsome man stood by the window, and the direction of his gaze was Lingqian and the cat.
He Rong followed his master's line of sight, and at this glance, he was surprised, "Fifth Miss! How is she on the street?"
"Go check on that maid." Yang Xuanling cares more about cats.
Now Xiao Wu, who can't even touch him, took the initiative to hold the girl's hand......
"Yes, Lord." He Rong immediately took the order and went out.
"Miss Five, do you want to eat roast duck?" The cat drooled as she spoke.
Lingqian also followed the index finger and moved his eyes
Green Light, "If you want, I'm going to eat two."
"Okay, let's have two big roast ducks, and the boss will help chop them." The cat took a gold bead and handed it to the hostess.
When the proprietress had finished weighing, she asked them for some broken silver, "I'll clean it up right away." We have an event in our store today, buy two roast ducks and get one gourd hawthorn stuffed free."
"Thank you, hostess. But we're two people, can you give us another one?"
"Okay." The proprietress took another pot, "Is this your sister?" It's so good-looking, just like in the painting."
"She"
"Well, she's my sister, Sister Cat." Lingqian scrambled to speak.
The cat was stunned for a moment and looked at Lingqian.
It wasn't until the boss lady handed her the chopped duck that she came back to her senses, "Thank you, boss lady, Wishing you prosperity."
"I lend you good luck~ Eat well, come back next time." Warm greeting from the hostess.
"No problem."
The cat took one of the fattest duck legs and handed it to Lingqian, "I'm hungry."
Lingqian took it unceremoniously and ate it in a big gulp.
Yang Xuanling, who was standing by the window, saw this scene, and his eyes became deeper and deeper......
The two of them ate while strolling, and the two fat big roast ducks were eaten unconsciously. And the hawthorn stuffed wine sent by the proprietress is just restrained, without the slightest greasy.
"Sister Mao'er, let's go find my mother, shall we?" Lingqian said to the cat.
The cat is still thinking about whether it is time to go back to the house, after all, the eldest lady has been out for a long time, maybe the people in the house have started to look for it.
"Fifth Miss wants to see the princess?"
"Well, I miss my mother so much." Lingqian took her hand, her eyes full of hope and supplication.
The cat is the most soft-hearted, looking into her eyes, her mouth is just a brain, "Okay, let's go find the princess."
"Thank you, Sister Mao'er, you're the best." Lingqian's little face was full of happy smiles.
The cat came back to her senses and grinned suddenly...... What did she just promise?
……
Rich is good.
Lingqian opened her mouth and bought a carriage, which was driven by a cat and drove her towards the outside of the capital.
The cats were a little apprehensive. But she is a slave, and the master tells her to do whatever she dares to do, which is the first criterion for being a maid in Huaining Palace.
She just listened to Miss Five's words to find the princess, and she definitely didn't instigate Miss Five to run away from home!
Woo woo~ She can't help herself!
Lingqian happily climbed out of the carriage, and held a bag of soft and sweet yam and jujube paste cakes in her hand.
"Sister Cat, give it to you."
"No, no, I'm still full of roast duck."
"Then I'll eat first."
"Hmm." The cat can see that she has a big appetite, her body is so thin, I don't know how long she has been hungry, it's really pitiful.
"Miss Five"
"Don't call me Miss Five, call me sister or Lingqian outside, otherwise how can we be like sisters."
"Sister...... Sister?"
"Yes, yes."
"So, sister, do you know where the princess's grave is?" The cat thought she was going to the cemetery of Princess Huaining.
Lingqian replied, "That tomb is fake, and my mother is still alive."
