Before leaving Taoyuan, Yuqiu said loudly: "Miss Caiyun, what business do you have with me? Sister Yuyao is also looking for me here. If you have something, I have to come back as soon as I finish."
Caiyun slightly frowned, sowing discord?
Although she really wanted to get useful information from Yuqiu, Caiyun understood that the person in Prince An's mansion who should not be offended at the moment was Tao Yuan. Regardless of whether she was really kind or digging a hole, as long as King An doted on her and liked her, then he couldn't be stupid enough to target her as soon as he entered the palace.
After all, she doesn't even know where King An's bed is facing now!
Smiling softly, she glanced at the rough servant who was looking over from the peach courtyard, and said in a louder voice than Yuqiu: "No, Sister Yuyao called you just to call you for me. Otherwise, give me the courage." , I don’t dare to intercept anyone here!”
Yuqiu's face suddenly turned extremely ugly.
She also wanted to rely on Caiyun to slap Tang Yuyao in the face, but in the end, Caiyun used it to please Tang Yuyao!
She was very angry, but after all, Caiyun was rewarded by the imperial concubine in the palace. Even if she was thrown into a corner as soon as she entered the palace, it was not something she could offend. Gritting her teeth, she laughed dryly and said: "Oh, so that's it. Miss Caiyun, what do you want to do with me? I'm still busy, so I can't delay."
Caiyun still wanted to use her, so he naturally didn't offend her. He stretched out his hand to pull her and left. A jade bracelet with a good water content was put on Yuqiu's wrist.
Yuqiu struggled but failed. He lowered his head and quickly glanced at his wrist, and he fell in love with it. Although she is the maid who serves Zhao Ting personally, Zhao Ting is a man and naturally will not reward his maid with jewelry, but only a few monthly rewards. But her mother-in-law was serving in Prince An's Mansion, and even before the monthly money was warm, she was asked to leave.
Therefore, for a girl like her, she didn't have any jewelry that she could afford.
A few days ago, when she saw so many jewelry items coming from Zhenbao Pavilion for Tang Yuyao to choose from, God knows her eyes turned green at that time. She doesn't want much, just give her one or two things. Even if she can't be the master's sidekick, she can find a good man to marry by relying on her status as a personal maid. Otherwise, if she doesn't survive year after year, In the end, I don’t know where I was sold by my parents!
Following Caiyun into a pavilion, Yuqiu couldn't wait to touch the jade bracelet after being forced to sit down.
She had never seen anything good, but she was sure this jade bracelet was excellent. Miss Caiyun is so generous, so she must have some wealth. No matter whether she can please the prince or not, as long as she can take things out and take care of them generously, then she can get close to him.
Yuqiu calmed down the anger in her heart and said: "Miss Caiyun, you will not get reward for your merits. If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Seeing this, Caiyun stopped explaining and said bluntly: "It's nothing. It's just that I just came to the palace, and I'm really confused about this place. So, I just want to ask Sister Yuqiu to tell me. The prince has some hobbies and taboos, and what kind of person is Tao Yuan?"
Yuqiu deliberately ignored the previous question and only said to Tang Yuyao: "The one in Taoyuan used to be like me, a maid who served the master personally, but... that one was very scheming, because although the master always looked at her differently, he did not accept her. To use her, he deliberately asked his master to leave the palace, which made the master anxious and took her in at will. Oh, after that, he even wanted his master all the time. As long as the master returned to the palace, he would be there almost all the time. She is stuck with her. Miss Caiyun, she is the first woman of the master, if you want to snatch someone from her, it will be a bit difficult. "
Sure enough, she said that Tang Yuyao couldn't be that good!
For such a possessive person, nine out of ten words he just said to him may be false, and he is just hoping for bad luck! Confirming that Tang Yuyao was harboring evil intentions, Caiyun rolled her eyes and said anxiously: "Then she just told me that the master likes to drink Biluochun, especially the third tea soup. Is that a lie?"
Yuqiu blurted out: "Of course it's a lie. Master has no requirement for tea at all."
Caiyun looked annoyed and continued: "Then it is false to say that the master hates eating noodles the most?"
Yuqiu was surprised, but felt that it was reasonable. If she were Tang Yuyao, she would naturally not tell the truth. So he sneered and said: "Of course it's a lie. Nine times out of ten times our master has late-night snacks, he orders Yang Chun noodles. How can this be called hating noodles?"
Caiyun didn't show it on his face, but his heart was turned upside down. What happened, Tang Yuyao didn't lie?
"Then Master, are you afraid of making noise?"
Yuqiu sneered: "Did Tang Yuyao tell you that the master likes to be quarreled? What a joke. We are servants, who dares to quarrel with the master?"
Yes, Yuqiu is just a maid, but Tang Yuyao is her bed partner. There are some things that Yuqiu doesn't know.
Caiyun was silent for a moment, stood up and walked out of the pavilion, standing on a big rock outside and looking at Taoyuan from a distance. This Tang Yuyao is really interesting. He didn't lie to her. I wonder... would you like to do her a favor?
If she is willing, even if she gains Prince An's favor in the future, she will not turn her back on him.

Here in Tang Yuyao, Lan Xiang was unhappy: "Sister Yuyao, Caiyun came here with no good intentions at all. Why are you so nice to her? And sister Yuqiu, she is simply too much. We are obviously closer." , why is she helping outsiders instead?"
Lan Xiang was too naive and didn't notice Yu Qiu's ulterior motives.
Tang Yuyao didn't mind Caiyun, but Yuqiu had to remind Lanxiang: "You are wrong. Yuqiu is not helping outsiders. She is just an aunt who is unhappy with me as the master now and wants me to embarrass myself in front of you."
Lanxiang is just innocent, which does not mean she is stupid: "You mean, Sister Yuqiu is jealous?"
Tang Yuyao said: "Don't confront her in the future. If she says anything, it will be what she says. If she wants to serve the master, you are not allowed to stop her, otherwise she will blame you and cause you trouble."
If he leaves, no one will protect Lan Xiang.
As for Yuqiu, it's not that she doesn't want to remind her that following Zhao Ting will end badly, but that given her current status, it's impossible for Yuqiu to believe her. Moreover, Yuqiu was also hostile to her, so she didn't want to interfere with Yuqiu's affairs.
Lan Xiang blinked, but she didn't understand: "Sister Yuyao, aren't you jealous?"
Tang Yuyao smiled: "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't have the right to be jealous. Let me tell you quietly, the choice of the princess is about to be decided."
"Ah?!" Lan Xiang was shocked. If the princess was chosen, Sister Yuyao would not be able to live the life she has now!
Tang Yuyao looked unconcerned and changed the subject: "Go and tell Butler Qin that I want to go out and ask him if that's okay."
During this period of time, the master spent all his time in Taoyuan when he was in the mansion. Qin Yuan naturally did not dare to refuse Tang Yuyao's request again. However, as a servant, one must be cautious, so in addition to Lan Xiang and his wife following closely, he also called four more guards. In the end, he was still uneasy and simply followed him.
With such a large group of people, Tang Yuyao would naturally not run away at this time.
She and others only chose a hosta for Zhao Ting at Zhenbao Pavilion, and then went to the rouge and gouache shop to get the latest fragrance powder. After calculating that the time was almost up, she ordered the carriage to stop in front of Defu Restaurant. At this time, the sun was setting and it was already time for dinner. As soon as she called it off, Qin Yuan understood. But aside from saying that this was against the rules, the key was that he didn't even tell the master, and just had dinner in a restaurant like this. How could he dare to agree?
Tang Yuyao wanted to prepare for a smooth departure in the future, so she planned to be extra unreasonable today. Qin Yuan got off the carriage before he could stop her.
"Steward Qin, if I remember correctly, the master takes this road to return home." She straightened her back and stood in front of Qin Yuan, showing off the appearance of a lawless aunt after gaining power, "I'll go inside first. When you're eating, ask someone to wait here. When the master passes by, just ask him to come in and look for me. Don't worry, if he blames me, just blame it on me."
He said and walked away.
Now that things were like this, how could Qin Yuan refuse? He had to wink at a guard and quickly stepped forward and said, "Master Tang, please wait a moment. The younger one will go and ask for a private room from the store first."
The butler of the palace was very dignified in front of businesses like Defu Restaurant, so Qin Yuan quickly came out to invite people.
As soon as Tang Yuyao entered the door, a young man in brocade clothes walked towards him. He was about to pass Tang Yuyao in a hurry, but when he passed by, he suddenly said "huh" and stepped back, looking at Tang Yuyao with squinted eyes.
