Chiyo placed the tea sets neatly on the table, then took out the tea cup and poured the tea into it.
"Go down, you don't need to be busy here." Di Yunhao glanced at Qianyo and then said.
"promise!"
Chiyo agreed and then slowly stepped back.
Looking at Chiyo's leaving figure, Di Yunhao's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
"Your Majesty, this woman is a bit strange." Di Yunhao said.
"How do you see it?"
"If an ordinary palace maid encountered Donglin's sword just now, she would definitely be frightened and panicked."
"But this woman didn't react at all, and her face didn't even change." Di Yunhao said.
Speaking of this, Jiang Qiulu also turned around and glanced at Chiyo's back.
"Other than slow response, there is only one possibility for this kind of performance."
"She is also a martial arts practitioner and knows that the sword just now cannot hurt her." Jiang Donglin continued.
Looking at Qianyo who was cleaning, Jiang Qiulu suddenly felt confused.
If this woman is a martial arts practitioner, why does she come to the palace to be a servant?
"Call her back." Jiang Qiulu said.
Afterwards, Di Yunhao walked towards Chiyo who was working.
At this time, Chiyo had already felt that the three people's eyes were focused on him, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
But at this time, Jiang Qiulu couldn't let Jiang Qiulu see any problems.
Otherwise, his identity will be suspected by Jiang Qiulu and it is likely to be exposed.
"Your Majesty asked you to go over and answer the question." When he came here, Di Yunhao said to Qianyo.
Chiyo turned around and saw Di Yunhao in front of him, and then looked at Jiang Qiulu in the pavilion.
Seeing Qianyo looking this way, Jiang Qiulu waved.
"promise."
Seeing the two people walking slowly, Jiang Qiulu and Jiang Donglin looked at each other.
"What's your name?" Jiang Qiulu asked as Chiyo came over.
"Your Majesty, my name is Qianqian."
"Ah, Qianqian, right?"
"Where does the family live and how many people are there?" Jiang Qiulu asked again.
"My hometown is in the south of the Yangtze River. My father passed away early and I have an old mother at home."
"My slave's twin brother is taking care of me at home."
Fortunately, this information was given to me when I exchanged identities with the real Qianqian.
If you make it up, it will definitely arouse suspicion.
"The sword was pointed at you just now, why didn't you hide?"
Chiyo had just finished answering the previous question when Jiang Qiulu asked the last crucial question directly.
This kind of inquiry is mixed with psychological elements.
To be honest, Chiyo was also caught off guard by this sudden change.
The first two questions were still asking about my background, but the second question was about why I didn’t hide.
"Because His Highness the Crown Prince drew his sword too quickly, and this servant did not react." Chiyo said.
In fact, Chiyo did not react at first.
After all, he planned to get closer slowly to listen to the information. Who would have thought that he would be discovered by Jiang Donglin.
"Hey, you met me on the second day after coming to the palace?" Jiang Donglin said with a smile.
"I heard from my sister who works with the slaves that His Royal Highness is His Majesty's personal bodyguard."
"That's why I dare to make such a conclusion."
Chiyo's heart skipped a beat and she almost spilled the beans, so she hurriedly made amends.
"I see."
"Both of us are with His Majesty, how could you guess that he is the Crown Prince and I am not?"
"You haven't seen us, how do you make this conclusion?" Di Yunhao asked.
Chiyo did not answer, but pointed to the jade pendant on Jiang Donglin's waist, which had the character "麟" for Qilin engraved on it.
Di Yunhao was speechless and turned his head to the side.
"Pretend I didn't ask," Di Yunhao said.
"Okay, don't dwell on this issue yet." Jiang Qiulu said suddenly.
"I'll give you one more chance to answer properly."
"Why didn't you hide just now?" Jiang Qiulu suddenly felt a sense of oppression on his body, and at the same time he stood up and looked at Qianyo.
At this time, Chiyo was shocked.
If he is exposed here, and there are two masters here, there is no way he can survive.
Thinking of this, Chiyo simply felt heartbroken and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I know some self-defense skills."
"This slave's younger brother once joined the army, and it was he who taught this slave." Chiyo said immediately.
"Why didn't you say it just now?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
"Your Majesty, my family is worried that I will be bullied here, so I learned some skills to defend myself."
"I didn't dare to say anything right away because I was afraid of angering His Majesty," Chiyo said.
The following words were entirely what Chiyo came up with out of sheer desperation.
Jiang Qiulu looked at Chiyo kneeling on the ground for a while, and then sat back down.
"Get flat."
"I called you here just to ask about your specific situation. Don't be nervous," Jiang Qiulu said.
Hearing Jiang Qiulu say this, he almost burst into anger.
Looking at the situation just now, if I didn't make up a reason to deal with it.
Jiang Qiulu would most likely kill him on the spot, as if he wanted to kill someone.
Now that he said he was just here to inquire about the specific situation, Chiyo felt the urge to pounce on Jiang Qiulu and bite him to death.
"Eunuch Li, remember to give her an extra monthly payment."
"promise."
"Okay, I have no problem here. You can go down." Jiang Qiulu said.
Afterwards, Chiyo left here again.
"Your Majesty, what do you say?" Di Yunhao asked.
"There are no suspicious signs yet. Maybe we are overthinking it?" Jiang Qiulu said.
"As long as they are not spies from other dynasties," Di Yunhao also sighed and said.
…
At night, Chiyo returned to his residence, but he couldn't sleep.
Because today's scene was really too thrilling.
If there is any problem with his answer, he will not come back.
"No, if this continues, there will be no way to gain Jiang Qiulu's trust."
"I must find a way as soon as possible to get closer to Jiang Qiulu as soon as possible." Chiyo was lying on the bed, thinking in his heart.
At first, Chiyo thought that Jiang Qiulu would have a good relationship with her after seeing her beauty.
It is even possible to treat yourself as a talented concubine.
But Jiang Qiulu was unmoved now, which made Chiyo a little anxious.
Although her beauty is not her only weapon, when others ignore this advantage, she feels a little unhappy for some reason.
Time came to the next day again, and Chiyo still came here.
But half a day had passed, and there was still no sign of Jiang Qiulu.
"Sister, does Your Majesty come here every day?" Chiyo asked a palace maid next to her.
"Not necessarily. His Majesty only comes here once in a while. The rest of the time he is busy dealing with government affairs." The palace maid replied.
