Yiwang Mansion covers a large area, with carved beams and painted buildings everywhere, and beautiful scenery. It is a good place to enjoy the scenery.
The queen and Liu Man strolled slowly along the edge of the lake surrounded by willow trees.
In the lake, there were fat koi that only ate from buckets and swam in groups following Liu Man's footsteps. They had no idea that the woman on the shore was laughing crazily in her heart at the fact that they were so fat that they could hardly swim.
The queen had a relaxed and joyful smile. Anyone who looked at her would think that this woman trapped in the harem was enjoying her few moments of freedom.
but……
Through the corner of her eye, the queen looked at the palace guards along the way from top to bottom.
The Queen's mother's family has been in the military for generations. She has been exposed to it since she was a child, so she is naturally particularly keen on some things.
For example, the ambition hidden under the respectful appearance of those guards, the brand-new sharp sword, and the sudden sharp look in her eyes when she accidentally approached a remote courtyard.
All kinds of performances do not look like the protection that a leisurely prince who is addicted to the streets and willow lanes and has no ambitions should be.
King Yi’s thoughts are clearly revealed!
A hundred steps away from the mysterious courtyard, the queen stopped.
"I got sidetracked without realizing it. There's nothing to see here. Let's go back. After visiting King Yi, we can also have business with the emperor."
Liu Man responded obediently, continued to act as a pendant, and followed the Queen back the way she came.
After all, she is a stupid college student who only knows about Aba and Aba. She has a specialization in the arts, and professional things should be left to professionals.
The Queen has already noticed something amiss in Prince Yi's Mansion, so she doesn't need to bother reminding her.
The salted fish soul in Liu Man's heart burned brightly.
During dinner, Liu Man happily enjoyed the roast duck that was still sizzling and oily when she brought it back from the palace. The outside was rolled into a palm-sized pancake made by Hua Ning, and paired with refreshing cucumber strips and side dishes. A mouthful of One, his mouth is full of oil after eating.
The fat aroma of the roast duck paired with the refreshing side dishes, the chewy crust filled with the aroma of wheat as she chewed it on her teeth, instantly made her forget about today's worries.
Next to her, Fat Orange, as the big contributor today, was rewarded by Hua Ning with a bowl of exclusive cat rice made of minced fish mixed with shrimp, japonica rice, and chicken liver.
The ingenious Hua Ning also shaped the cat rice into the shape of a cute cat head, which made Liu Man a little greedy.
As for the dried fish she had promised, she had naturally fulfilled it long ago.
The cat boys lying in rows on the wall of Zhaoyang Palace also got a small dried fish with one meow.
While Fat Orange was immersed in showing off, he did not forget to communicate with the younger brothers outside.
Fat Orange: Meow meow~ meow~ (Follow me and you’ll get small fish to eat!)
Soon, meows came one after another outside Zhaoyang Palace.
Meow~ (The boss is mighty! Always follow the boss!)
Meow meow meow~ (The boss’s enemy is our enemy! Come on, brothers, let’s teach that old woman a lesson and let her know whose territory this is!)
Here’s another contributor to today’s cat shit.
So at the command, the cats all ran in one direction as fast as lightning.
Hua Wan looked at the movement outside, smiled and rubbed her fat face.
"We, Fat Orange, are very powerful outside~"
Fat Orange pretended not to understand, rubbed Hua Wan's hand back and forth with her bulging cheek flesh, and betrayed her lust to get a small dried fish.
Under the moonlight, everything was quiet, and the entire palace fell into a deep sleep.
Concubine Jing lingered in Prince Yi's Mansion for a long time before returning to the palace a quarter of an hour before the palace door was locked.
They left the palace in such a hurry that they had no time to bring the palace lanterns.
Now I can only rely on the moonlight to illuminate the way forward, barely able to discern the direction in the dark night.
"You bunch of brainless losers, all you want to do is cheat and cheat all day long, but you even forgot to bring the palace lantern."
Concubine Jing was being supported from one side to the other. The old lady was full of energy and had been fussing all day without stopping. At this time, she was even cursing incessantly.
The four or five palace residents were like silent statues, saying nothing and allowing Concubine Jing to beat and scold her.
At this time, there was a slight movement in the grass nearby, as if something was passing by, and the grass blades made a rustling sound as they rubbed against each other.
It's not heavy, but in this quiet night, it hits everyone's heart hard.
"what?"
Concubine Jing stared at the movement in the grass in horror, her legs weak.
There are many secret things in the harem, and there are also many women in the harem who have blood on their hands.
Concubine Jing is one of the best.
Therefore, it was impossible for her not to be afraid.
Mixed with the chirping of cicadas and the chirping of insects, a scream as sharp and shrill as a crying baby suddenly sounded. Concubine Jing trembled all over and fell into long-lasting memories.
"Ah! I really didn't mean it. Your presence is too much of a hindrance... You shouldn't have stolen my son's favor!"
Concubine Jing's lips were trembling, and her words were incoherent, but they were enough to make everyone think.
I heard that after King Yi was born, there was a little prince born, who was more favored by the emperor than King Yi. But for some reason, the little prince was not more than a month old and he suffocated to death. I heard that the wet nurse covered him too tightly with the quilt at night. , accidentally covering the little prince's mouth and nose.
A little life was lost like this.
Naturally, King Yi became the youngest son of the late emperor again, and he was loved by all since he was a child.
Suddenly learning about the secrets in the palace, the few maids looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes.
After tonight, when Concubine Jing comes to her senses, they may not end well.
Behind them was a bottomless dark pond, with ripples appearing on the water surface from time to time, refracting the moonlight pouring down beautifully. For a moment, the water surface was bright, illuminating the darkness in everyone's heart.
The white cat in the grass arched its body, its tail straight up, and assumed an offensive posture.
The white cat lowered his body, and his body was full of energy after eating the dried fish. Then he glared, and the whole cat catapulted into the air and flew straight towards Concubine Jing.
Concubine Jing was already frightened out of her wits. Faced with the approaching Bai Mao, she kept retreating. Then her foot slipped and she accidentally stepped on the slippery moss by the river.
Concubine Jing screamed and tried to aim her body in mid-air to stop herself from falling backwards. However, she was pushed hard by a pair of hands stretched out from behind, causing her whole body to fall uncontrollably toward the water.
The white cat in front of her meowed, stretched out her paw and scratched Concubine Jing's face, leaving four blood marks.
thump--
Concubine Jing fell into the pool and made a human-shaped splash, comparable to a fish fry team.
"Ahem - pull me up quickly!"
The white cat succeeded in his attack, turned around and slipped into the grass and ran away.
The maids on the shore looked at Princess Jing who kept splashing in the water, and their eyes couldn't stop the joy.
Damn old woman, you too have today.
Concubine Jing struggled in the cold and biting water, choking several times of water down her throat while thrashing. In her gradually blurred vision, the maids she usually beat and scolded at will stood quietly on the shore without saying a word.
