Chapter Thirty-One
Early in the morning, Thirteen came to report that there were too many guards outside Lingquan Palace. Xiaoyu curled his lips and said, "Do you think more guards can stop that smelly Taoist priest?
The little emperor's words have spread throughout the palace, and if he wants to break in, no one can stop him."
After hearing this, Ah Jiu pondered for a moment and said, "Go and see if the guards from the past few days are still there."
"Yeah!"
As Thirteen said this, he ran up to the room again and ran towards the entrance of the palace. After a while, he came back and reported:
"The ones that are still there are all at the main entrance. Some of the extra ones are arranged at the back door, and some are arranged at the corner door on the west."
In the entire Lingquan Palace, there are only three entrances and exits, one in front of the other and one in the back. Liangxi Pavilion only has one main door and one corner door, so it is not difficult for Thirteen to investigate these.
"I understand." Ah Jiu responded, but fell into deep thought.
After a while, she smiled slightly and said to Xiaoyu: "Go to the imperial kitchen and ask if there are white jade yam for today's snacks."
"Miss, do you want to eat white jade yam today?"
Xiaoyu was a little curious. She had been with Ah Jiu for so long, but she never knew she liked this dish.
"Just go and ask. But don't rush on the way. You can walk slowly. When you come back, tell me all the people and things you meet along the way."
"Okay, miss."
Hearing what Ah Jiu said, Xiaoyu knew that there must be a reason, so he immediately took the order and left Lingquan Palace, heading towards the imperial dining room.
An hour later, Xiaoyu came back, and brought back a few snacks newly made in the imperial dining room. She put the snacks on the table and came to Ah Jiu: "Miss, I'm back."
"Yeah." Ah Jiu nodded, "What, is there anyone following you along the way?"
Xiaoyu said with a strange look on his face: "No one is there, not even that smelly Taoist priest. He probably hasn't come back yet."
"Then who did you meet on the road?" Ah Jiu asked again.
"This is even weirder."
"What's weird?"
"I met many palace maids and eunuchs along the way. When they saw me, they would either say hello to me, elder sister or younger sister, or insist on inviting me to be a guest. Some of them greeted me respectfully, and they were obviously much taller than me.
She also calls me Sister Xiaoyu.
But I don’t know any of these people, how do they know about me?”
After listening to Xiaoyu's words, Shisan kept pouting...
Rumors about something in the palace spread quickly. Probably from the first day Xiaoyu entered the palace, these people began to pay attention to the only maid of the concubine who was currently promoted the fastest in the harem. There was no one who didn't recognize her.
However, Ah Jiu frowned slightly at this time. After thinking for a while, she suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, lowered her head and said to Thirteen at her feet:
"The weather is nice these days. It's a good time to absorb the brilliance of the sun and the moon. It's also time for you to meditate and practice!"
Thirteen was stunned for a moment, then immediately grimaced...Well, why did the master let him start the miserable life of basking in the sun during the day and basking in the moon at night?
It had only been a few days since he was allowed to go back to his room to sleep!
Why is his life so miserable!
…
When Lu Gui came back, it was already after dinner.
