Chapter 135: Inside the courtyard wall

It was just getting dark.

Only a candle was lit in the study room. A cold wind blew in outside the half-open window. The candle swayed with the wind, causing the huge shadows imprinted on the ground to shake slightly.

Suddenly, the half-open window shaking, and the shadow not far from the window also shaking.

A young and thin man walked out of the shadow and came to the window.

His eyes fell on the table by the window, where there was an extra slender metal strip.

The man held the metal strip, his hand moved slightly, and with a "click", the metal strip bounced open, and a slender piece of paper lay inside.

Take out the note inside and slowly push it away with your fingers.

After seeing the handwriting on it, the man's eyes froze, and then the corners of his mouth raised.

But the smile seemed to be a flash in the pan and soon disappeared on the man's face.

Eunuch Gao stood quietly behind the master. After the master finished watching it, he carefully said: "Master, it's time for dinner."

The man turned around, thin but tall, and looked carefully and looked at the face of the Regent two or three points similar to the Regent, but the man was too young and did not have the calmness and restraint of the Regent in appearance.

This person is nobody else, he is the nominal king of Dayan today.

"A few dishes are added to me during dinner, Gao Cheng, you can do it." The little emperor suddenly spoke like this.

After hearing this, Eunuch Gao was stunned for a few seconds, he immediately said in surprise: "Yes, Master, I will do it now."

In fact, the imperial kitchen has never been harsh on the meals of the lord of a country. On weekdays, the little emperor did it deliberately. Eunuch Gao understood the master's idea. The master wanted to be prepared for danger in times of peace and remind him of the environment he was in at all times. Now it is not far from the time when the master could relax and enjoy it.

The master rarely speaks to reward himself, so he must have learned something good.

As the most trustworthy slave around his master, he is of course happy for his master.

After Eunuch Gao left, the only little emperor was left in the air-cooled Hou study.

The little emperor stood by the window, with his hands behind his back. In front of the wind, the cold night wind blew up the two black hair on the little emperor's temples, taking away most of the warmth on his body, but the little emperor didn't feel cold. He couldn't even help laughing, smiling with ambition.

In the past, his uncle regent was always like an unbreakable iron bucket. He could not find any flaws in him. He thought that such a life would last for a long time, but he didn't expect that the iron bucket would break so quickly!

This emperor uncle is really rebellious. The one he really likes is actually a man!

Then he must make good use of Shen Yuntang's chess piece!

Thinking of this, the little emperor's smile became more and more wanton. If it weren't for the uninhabited Qianqing Palace, everyone who saw it would have thought that such a little emperor was a terrible man-cannibal ghost.

In Wolong Villa, the yard where Shen Yuntang is located is full of bamboos of all kinds.

Although they are all bamboos, their postures are different and of different types. Some are planted beside the pool, some are attached to rockery, and some stand by the window. Even if the whole yard is full of bamboo, it does not make people feel monotonous. Instead, it is in various shapes, making people dazzled and then they are moved and surprised.

Shen Yuntang looked around here in the bamboo courtyard, and there were servants and maids passing by from time to time.

When these servants and maids saw her from afar, they bent down or bowed their knees, as if she was also the owner of this hot spring villa.

At first, Shen Yuntang felt uncomfortable, but after a while, she got used to it.

All kinds of bamboos could be seen everywhere in the yard, and before I knew it, Chen Yuntang walked to the backyard.

The hot spring pools in this bamboo yard are all in the backyard, and the same is true for the hot spring pool that Chen Yuntang went to before. She did not go directly to the main room of the backyard, but walked around from the side.

The bamboo yard is exquisitely laid out in both the front yard and the back yard, with corridors everywhere and arched rockery, which is also very easy to get lost.

Fortunately, Chen Yuntang had a good sense of direction, otherwise after turning for so long, she would have lost her way in this bamboo yard.

After passing through the two doors, turn left to see the deep corridor, and turn right to see the beauty near the water.

Chen Yuntang narrowed his eyes slightly and saw a door at the end of the left, and walked over there without thinking.

The corridor was deep and long, and after reaching the end there was a red painted door, but it was locked.

Chen Yuntang glanced at the side and saw that there was a high courtyard wall in the locked door. There were wax plum trees planted in the courtyard wall. It was in full bloom. A light yellow wintersweet branch stretched out, as if waving to the person watching it, calling people to come in and see the beautiful scenery in the courtyard wall.

Chen Yuntang was curious and reached out to touch the big lock on the red paint door.

The lock head is used for renewal, the door handle is polished and shiny, without any dust, and the keyhole is even oiled and maintained.

It can be seen that this door is often opened, and there are special people cleaning it nearby.

After observing this, Chen Yuntang became even more curious.

While Shen Yuntang was standing in front of the locked red paint door and thinking, two people came to the corridor behind him.

The two did not deliberately hide their footsteps. They were wearing eunuch's clothes, and one of them was Chen Yuntang, who felt familiar with his face.

When the two of them approached, Chen Yuntang found that one of them was carrying a bamboo basket on his elbow.

Not long after, the two walked to Chen Yuntang.

The eunuch in charge smiled and saluted Chen Yuntang, "Hello, Marquis, why are you here?"

Chen Yuntang looked up and down at the young eunuch, and his mind flashed and he thought.

"Are you Eunuch Wei's apprentice? I'm just taking a walk here."

The young eunuch smiled even louder, "That's right, Marquis, you have such a good memory. The slave and his master's surname are Wei Zhong."

Chen Yuntang met this young eunuch named Wei Zhong when he was in the imperial study last time.

She looked at the person behind him holding a basket in his hand, and was a little surprised, "What are you going to do?"

Wei Zhong is not very old, but he is versatile and smiles when he speaks. He looks like he teaches Eunuch Wei. He probably is a smiling tiger even if he is more experienced.

"Go back to the marquis, the servants are about to go to this locked yard. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

What does it mean to send someone to a pillow when you come to sleep? This is probably what it means to do.

Chen Yuntang was interested in this locked red lacquer door, so Wei Zhong came.

Wei Zhong only received a tender eunuch, and this place was the Wolong Villa of the Regent. Chen Yuntang came here alone, so of course he was not worried that the people around the Regent would kidnap her.

So she happily agreed, "I'm bored, so I'll go in with you to take a look."

Wei Zhong smiled and asked Chen Yuntang to let him go, and then he took out a key with a black rope from his arms and opened the well-maintained red paint door.

As soon as Wei Zhong pushed open the Hongqi Gate, he took a step back, arrived at Chen Yuntang, and said respectfully: "Mr. Marquis, please ask first."

Chen Yuntang smiled at Wei Zhong, and was not polite, "It's time for you to be fine for the young master Wei."
