Chapter 139: Hindsight
The siblings got together for less than half an hour, and they could only part in a hurry.
Yu'er is the only palace maid in Jingyang Palace, even if Princess Ankang's health is much better now, she can't leave for too long.
Deng Weixian can also understand this.
Although he took a day off, he also planned to go back.
Generally speaking, the eunuchs and maids in the palace rotate continuously for 365 days a year, with no days off.
Some masters are more generous and will give their subordinates time to take turns to rest.
But most people have been serving their masters from the time they open their eyes to the time they close their eyes.
Wang Suyue is also generous, Deng Weixian suddenly took leave today, and she directly approved it for a whole day.
Because they are five people serving Wang Suyue's master, and the other courtyard is not very big, their daily work is not as much as before.
In the past, when I was doing odd jobs in the Yanqu Palace, I had endless work from morning to night.
Therefore, the eunuchs and palace maids in the Yanqu Hall dreamed of being selected as a close attendant and had a master.
In this way, not only will the work be easier, but you will also get some rewards occasionally, and your life will be more nourishing.
But not everyone is lucky.
Most eunuchs and palace maids will do chores all their lives, until they can no longer do it and are sent out of the palace to fend for themselves.
I can't save any money by doing odd jobs, and when I leave the palace, I'm just going to die.
The clever ones will be chosen at the beginning, and it won't be the turn of the old ones at all.
Everyone wants to find a young one, slowly cultivate loyalty, and become their own diehard.
The old ones are not completely without opportunities, some people will suddenly open their minds, and then seize the opportunity to get out of the fate of doing chores in this life.
And those who can't open their minds until the end can only obediently accept their fate.
Just watching the tragic ending approach themselves step by step, how many people can accept it safely.
In the process, it's enough to twist any normal person and turn them into monsters.
Deng Weixian was lucky.
Under the arrangement of his godfather, he almost finished his training in the Prison Academy, and after coming to Yanqu Palace, he got the opportunity to become Wang Suyue's close attendant.
Such an opportunity to quickly get out of the bottom made almost everyone else envious.
Deng Weixian didn't understand it at first.
It wasn't until later that I always saw the malicious gaze for no reason that I gradually came to my senses.
"Sister, I'll come to see you next time I have time, and then I'll throw you a note like I did today."
Deng Weixian showed a shallow smile, like many shy boys of this age.
Yu'er looked at her younger brother and smiled, and nodded happily: "Okay, I'll wait for you." ”
"Be careful when serving your master, and don't make people unhappy."
"It is more important to pay attention to the emotions of a good master than to do good deeds."
"You must remember to reach out and not hit the smiling person, and be as kind as possible to everyone."
Yu'er couldn't help but be kind and seduced, and said a few words.
Her younger brother is very wooden now, and she can't wait to give all her experience to Deng Weixian.
Deng Weixian didn't show the slightest annoyance, smiled and said, "I remember, sister." ”
"It's not too early, you should go back early."
Yu'er reluctantly stood up and walked to the entrance of the alley with Deng Weixian.
"You should go back early, and come to my sister to discuss something with you."
Yu'er gently hugged Deng Weixian, and then said goodbye: "I'll go back first, be careful on the road." ”
Deng Weixian didn't speak, just nodded.
He stood in place, looking at Yu'er's departing figure, and did not withdraw his gaze for a long time.
It wasn't until Yu'er's back disappeared around the corner that Deng Weixian took a deep breath and turned his head in the direction of Yanqu Palace.
"How do you feel that little Deng Zi is preoccupied?"
Li Xuan didn't know if it was his own delusion, and felt that Deng Weixian's steps today were a little heavy.
"I'll ask later."
Li Xuanxian followed Yu'er in secret, and only left with confidence when he saw her return to Jingyang Palace safely.
Then he went to the Imperial Garden, where he found the cows and the fat orange sleeping.
Seeing that they slept so soundly, Li Xuan couldn't bear to wake them up, and came directly to Wang Suyue's courtyard in the Yanqu Palace.
I found that the cat bully was seriously watching here.
"Meow? (Is there a situation?) )”
Hearing Li Xuan's voice, Mao Ba turned his head to look at him and shook his head slightly.
But he hesitated again and meowed.
"Meow. (Throw stones in the morning.) )”
Li Xuan couldn't help but tilt his head, not understanding too much what the cat bully meant.
But then the cat shook his head and gestured at Deng Weixian's yard.
"Meow? (Are you saying someone threw stones into Deng Weixian's yard in the morning?) )”
Maoba immediately nodded, indicating that this was what he meant.
Li Xuan's heart instantly moved, and he thought of something.
"Wasn't this how Deng Weixian sent a message to Yu'er before?"
"It seems that he is also a scholar."
"Is this also the reason why he suddenly came to Yu'er today?"
Li Xuan exchanged a few more words with the cat bully and learned the details of what it saw.
It turned out that before dawn in the early hours of this morning, Maoba saw a stone thrown in Deng Weixian's yard.
At that time, the whole courtyard was quiet, so the cat's cat bully heard the sound unusually harsh.
And this also successfully woke up Deng Weixian.
Deng Weixian heard the movement in his yard, and it didn't take long for him to come out to check on a piece of clothing.
Mao Ba saw Deng Weixian pick up the stones on the ground and go back to his room.
Hearing such an answer, Li Xuan was even more convinced of his conjecture.
"It seems that Xiao Dengzi is really in trouble."
"Is that his godfather?"
Except for Deng Weixian's godfather, Li Xuan really couldn't imagine that anyone in this palace would take such a lot of trouble to contact Deng Weixian.
It can be that the godfather of the former Deng Weixian came to him at night, and this time he suddenly sent someone to throw stones, which is really a little strange.
With a strong sense of curiosity, Li Xuan and Maoba watched Deng Weixian here.
After he came back, he just reported to Wang Suyue and returned to work.
It wasn't until night fell that Li Xuan's side was replaced by a cow that Deng Weixian's godfather floated in.
At this time, Deng Weixian had been waiting for a long time.
"The kid has seen the godfather."
Deng Weixian's godfather didn't talk nonsense, and after sitting on the stone bench, he said, "It seems that you have seen the letter I sent." ”
"Yes, godfather."
Deng Weixian lowered his head deeply, making it impossible to see his expression.
Deng Weixian's godfather didn't say anything long-winded, and directly took out a palm-sized silk cloth from his sleeve, with a line of small characters on it.
Li Xuan was too far away to read the words on it clearly, he waited to look closely, and then he heard it.
"Put this thing away and find a chance to do what I told you."
Deng Weixian obediently put away the silk cloth and didn't even ask a word.
"I think you're also well aware that you can't be noticed by anyone."
"Otherwise, even I won't be able to protect you."
"So, be cautious."
Deng Weixian's godfather solemnly instructed.
"Got it!"
Deng Weixian's godfather patted him on the shoulder and nodded with satisfaction.
"Alright, let's start cultivating."
Then Deng Weixian practiced the copper-headed iron arm technique as before, and after the power of qi and blood was exhausted, he was massaged and whipped.
After accompanying him to do this, Deng Weixian's godfather looked at him, and finally solemnly instructed him:
"Proceed with caution."
Then he drifted away and disappeared.
Deng Weixian sat on the stone bench for a long time and didn't move, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Li Xuan, who was secretly spying, couldn't help frowning.
"What do you think of this, is it to let Deng Wei do something very dangerous first?"
"Is his godfather going to give up on him?"
Li Xuan didn't have a clue no matter how he thought about it.
Deng Weixian's godfather hasn't been here for a few days, and he doesn't know what he's busy with secretly.
As a result, within a few days of reappearing, Deng Weixian was assigned a task.
And looking at their atmosphere, how can there be a bit of a sense of going and no return.
"What the hell is that silk cloth?"
"I see there's still a word on it!"
Li Xuan's heart is like being scratched by a cat, which is called an itchy heart.
"I'll have to come and see him tomorrow, but don't anything happen."
Only then did Li Xuan understand that Deng Weixian had come to say goodbye to Yu'er today.
was afraid that he was also afraid that he would never return, so he made an excuse to take one last look at Yu'er.
"No wonder he doesn't look in the right mood today."
Speaking of which, it is not easy for Deng to be the first.
He only has himself, and he doesn't even have a person to talk to when something happens.
Even that godfather is more about taking advantage of each other.
After all, that's the tone from the start.
Even if they got into a relationship later, Deng Weixian also showed more potential.
But when he needs to be used, Deng Weixian can only continue to prove his worth.
Otherwise, why does his godfather need to continue to invest resources?
Even if Deng Wei is a genius first, but he can't use it for himself, what is the use.
Although he didn't know the content of Deng Weixian's mission, Li Xuan was enough to see that he had encountered a difficult test.
And the bitter fruit of failure seems to be something he can't bear.
Li Xuan shook his head and went back with the cow that kept yawning.
"It's better to go to bed early and wake up early."
The cow saw that it could call it a day so early, so it was naturally happy and followed up.
Since there's a big operation tomorrow, it doesn't make much sense to let the cows continue to watch here.
And this guy was dozing off in front of him, and the devil knows how he used to be staring.
"As the saying goes, I was born to be useful."
"Could it be that the cows are the exception?"
Li Xuan sighed and looked back, but it happened to meet the clear eyes of the cow, and he couldn't bear to say anything anymore.
"Forget it, you'd better live well."
Li Xuan said secretly in his heart.
The cow tilted his head, not understanding why Li Xuan didn't leave, staring at himself with a look of wanting to meow and stop.
……
The next day.
The genius was bright, and Li Xuan was already waiting in front of Deng Weixian's door.
He walked out of the room with a pair of slightly darkened eye circles, and his expression was particularly cold and resolute today.
And after breakfast, Wang Suyue's other courtyard began to get busy.
Today, they seem to have some activity.
The five palace maids and eunuchs, including Deng Weixian, were busy before and after, and after preparing for a long time, Wang Suyue took Deng Weixian and Liang Chuchu out of the courtyard, and they didn't know where to go.
Deng Weixian and Liang Chuchu, who were following behind, were carrying carefully prepared gifts in their hands, and it seemed that Wang Suyue was going to visit.
And also very important guests.
Li Xuan followed behind them unhurriedly, all the way out of the Yanqu Palace, and headed in the direction of Caiyun Palace.
"Who are they going to?"
