She's been stalked by a dog assassin!
When the dowry mama was "cleaning up" the palace's servants, Jian Yu noticed something reflective and shiny standing in front of the newly bought servant on the left.
She couldn't see the details clearly from the angle she was in, and Jian Yu didn't pay attention at the time. When she left, she thought of it again and glanced at it from the corner of her eye.
After seeing clearly, Jian Yu's steps stagnated slightly, and then returned to normal.
When she was about to walk out of the main hall and turn left into the corridor, Jian Yu glanced at the boy without any trace. He was standing with a low eyebrow and an ordinary face. He looked about seventeen or eighteen years old.
He is about the same height as Rong Xiao, but the former has a tall and straight posture due to martial arts training, while the young man is a little hunched over his chest, giving him a feeling of weakness and being bullied.
Jian Yu took a sip of tea to calm down, and her intuition told her that the boy was the assassin. The hairpin was a "handle" to Rong Xiao, and he would definitely not give it to anyone else. The other party would repeat the same trick as in Jian's house. , deliberately exposing the hairpin for him to discover!
Get a love token and let this guy spend it. Jian Yu is slightly annoyed. If he doesn't stay in Jian's Mansion, why does he come to Prince Jing's Mansion?
After much thought, Jian Yu told Hongmei to select three servants among the newly purchased servants to be the sweepers of the outer courtyard. Jian Yu specifically told him that they must look honest and loyal.
Although I was just cleaning outside the courtyard, I still came to the princess to greet her and get to know her face.
Seeing Rong Xiao among the servants, Jian Yu glanced at Hongmei clearly. She knew that the criterion for choosing this girl to be loyal and honest was her appearance.
The servants were all bought from Ren Yazi by the steward and had an innocent family background. They were also doing low-level jobs in the government. The biggest official they had ever seen was the government official, and only relatives of the emperor had heard of it.
Seeing the princess, they were all extremely nervous, the one on the left being the most nervous, and her legs were shaking.
Jian Yu simply didn't notice, because the one shaking his leg was the dog assassin who once threw a dagger casually in the room and submerged all the blades in it! Not to mention martial arts, this man's acting skills are also very high.
"Okay, you can go down."
Hongmei spoke knowingly, and the servants bowed and left.
During this interval, Jian Yu tapped the table twice with her hand. If the assassin understood the hint, he would understand that he was asking him to meet at the second watch of the night.
Jian Yu was really tired after all the hard work these days. Tomorrow she had to go to the palace to thank her, and the day after that she had to go back to the Tai Fu Mansion. Without any further instructions, she went back to her house to rest.
That night,
In the secret tunnel of the rockery in the courtyard, Zhou Jinyan, who was wearing a servant's uniform, met Wei Bai again.
Wei Bai was also among the newly purchased servants. When Hongmei came to choose, she told the steward that the princess wanted some honest and honest people to clean the outer courtyard.
He could have sworn that he had the most innocent look in his life, and his expression was imitating the silly look of a new recruit when he entered the camp for the first time.
As a result, not only was Wei Bai not selected, but when Hongmei's eyes rested on his face, she made a sound of disgust, which made Wei Bai a little hurt.
Doesn't he seem innocent enough? Even the key masters could be picked away, but he was left alone. Wei Bai was very dissatisfied. He was much more honest than his master!
What made Wei Bai even more sad was not only the denial from Hongmei, but the steward also looked at him twice after Hongmei left. Wei Bai, who has excellent hearing, clearly heard the steward's murmur after he left: It was normal when he bought it. , why are you acting like a fool now...
The over-the-top acting skills are those of Wei Bai.
"Master, this subordinate has been assigned to the kitchen and is responsible for... pouring the swill."
As Zhou Jinyan's close guard, Wei Bai also had an official position, a dignified cavalry battalion captain. Not only was he dismissed as a fool, but he was also assigned a job that didn't involve using his brain but only his strength.
Wei Bai was already numb to this.
Although the work was difficult, the advantage was the high freedom of time. He only had to do it twice a day at noon and evening, so Wei Bai had time to inquire about things in the house.
He asked to come to the mansion with his master. The secret guards have arrived in Shengjing working day and night. The next investigation task will be carried out by them.
"It's a joke that the house steward wants to show off his power to the princess. Master, you don't know that I am in the kitchen..."
The nuns who came as dowries were not vegetarians, and the people in the palace wanted not to do it, but one of the nuns on the left was for the master, and the other on the right was the prince's spirit in heaven, so the people in the palace were speechless.
The people in the palace are accustomed to talking about the prince, but the maids and maids who are married to him can also talk about it. Not only the prince, they will also talk about the princess and the queen. When it comes to the current emperor, one by one, the names are smashed, who dares to disobey ?
Let’s talk about the kitchen first. When Wei Bai was assigned, the master chef in charge was quite arrogant. He said that he was valued by the prince. In the past, the prince loved to eat the eight-treasure duck he cooked. He also said that the housekeeper was his second uncle and so on.
Wei Bai could tell that the chef in charge was not talking to him, but to the mothers of the princess and the queen.
As a result, the nuns didn’t accept this trick at all.
Coincidentally, the princess also likes this dish! Then the nuns started to talk about the things that the princess should not eat. For example, the taste should not be too strong, and the portions of dishes with thick oil and red sauce should be delicate...
The chef was very arrogant at first, but later he was repeatedly criticized by grandma for the dishes he made. He was so angry that he threw the spoon and said that grandma is looking for trouble, you can do it!
Then grandma started cooking. The dishes were all delicious and delicious. You didn’t need to taste them, just smelled them and you knew you were a winner. The chef in charge was able to be a master chef simply because his second uncle was in charge, and everyone usually let him.
For many years, the chef couldn't recognize himself. He really thought he was the god of cooking, and he was fooled at the slightest excitement.
It's useless to bring out the second uncle, the housekeeper, at this time. The mothers' backer is the princess! Now the kitchen is taken over by the grandma. The grandma said that the chef should learn from her, and when the time comes, he will be in charge again.
This kind of situation is not only happening in the kitchen, but also everywhere in the palace.
The dowry brought by the princess are too powerful! The slaves in the palace used to obey the housekeeper, but now that the real master has come to the palace, no matter how stupid they are, they know that they can't follow the rules.
Moreover, the princess's words were reasonable and convincing. Their words were firm and powerful, and their attitude was polite. As they spoke, they followed their words.
In fact, everyone got along quite happily, but from the butler's point of view, it was his person in the mansion who was completely suppressed by the dowry brought by the princess.
He was not afraid of facing off against the princess, and he also thought about many possibilities. He never expected that the princess would bring so much dowry! Everything is done by the dowry, so it’s hard for him to find fault!
The housekeeper was furious in the room.
"...The housekeeper's relatives also wanted to rebel against the generals, but they were defused by Granny Li in a few words. She made a fuss. Compared with the dowry brought by the princess, they are too stupid, hahahaha."
Wei Bai was by Zhou Jinyan's side when he arrived at the military camp at the age of eleven. Most of the young generals in Bianbei, including Wei Bai, were trained by Zhou Jinyan. They followed Zhou Jinyan on the battlefield and went through life and death.
The feelings I have for Zhou Jinyan in my heart are both respect and closeness. Although I say I am a close servant, my feelings are actually much deeper.
So now Wei Bai got carried away while talking. After laughing and seeing his master's face, he realized that this is the prince's mansion!
Although the master went to Bianbei not long after the mansion was given to him, this place was also called Prince Jing's Mansion. The servants in the mansion were stupid, and the master's face was not bright.
Wei Bai's smile faded a little, he swallowed and stopped laughing.
