The peasant girl who escaped the famine: pick up the leak and pick up a prince

Chapter 70 Joint Rescue ([-])

Li Shengwang sat on the ground, grabbed the cakes in the basket and ate them in big mouthfuls. He even glued the crumbs that fell on the ground with his fingers and put them into his mouth.

Yu Mai stepped forward and grabbed his hand: "Have you never eaten in your life, don't eat the scum that falls on the ground, if it is not enough, I will bring it to you next time."

Hearing this sentence, Li Shengwang threw the pastry in his hand on the ground, and said in despair: "Next time, is there a next time?"

As he said that, a string of crystal tears rolled down his cheeks. At that moment, she found that this man was not only handsome, but also distressed. She couldn't help feeling sorry for the man in front of her, and instantly ignored the age difference between the two.

Concubine Liu stood aside, and then said: "Eat well, I will find a solution."

Yu Maimai didn't know why Li Shengwang got involved with the empress in the palace in such a short period of time, and even when he was in the cell, she would come to see him. For some reason, she felt an inexplicable sourness in her heart.

Concubine Liu grabbed Yu Maimai's arm and said, "Come here, I have something important to discuss with you?"

Yu Maimai was confused: "What kind of rhythm is this? Since you are the empress in the palace, what matters can't be decided by yourself, and you still have to discuss it with me, a civilian woman?"

In a corner of the cell, Concubine Liu glanced at Yu Maimai and said in a low voice, "Are you willing to save him?"

Yu Maimai rolled his eyes a few times, and then nodded: "Madam, actually, there is nothing between us, but, I think a good official like him who does practical things for the people, now Not anymore. Thinking of what he did for the villagers of Kushuihe before, not to mention me, even the villagers of the whole village, as well as the victims who were rescued from the plague, are probably very grateful to Mr. Li. "

The reason Yu Maimai said this was because she didn't want Concubine Liu to misunderstand the relationship between them. However, in Concubine Liu's view, it didn't matter what the relationship between the woman in front of her and Li Shengwang was, what mattered was that she was willing to pay for saving Li Shengwang. heart of everything.

"Actually, you were the hero in that plague. This palace already knew about it, and you don't need to say it again. Now I just want to ask you, are you willing to save his life? No matter what kind of sacrifice you make ?”

Yu Maimai thought for a while, and the scene of Li Shengwang grabbing the bamboo basket and eating cakes on the ground suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She felt sorry for this man. In the past, they often quarreled together and even drove him out of the house. Dry water river, now, she just wants to save this man who makes her feel distressed.

"My lady, the women are willing! As long as I can save him!"

Concubine Liu nodded: "Okay, that's it, follow my plan, what do you think?"

Because in the cell, one needs to be careful when speaking, so Concubine Liu clung to Maimai's ear in a low voice, and spoke out her plan.

Yu Maimai frowned: "But, ma'am, is it appropriate to find a death row prisoner instead? The woman thinks that since the Xiangguo's people want to deal with him, then he will definitely check the corpse. If they find any flaws in the corpse If not, wouldn't that be very dangerous? Whether it's for Li Shengwang or for the empress?"

Concubine Liu frowned slightly: "What better way do you have?"

Yu Maimai thought that there was a wonderful artifact in the system. If Li Shengwang's appearance changed, even if the Xiangguo's people found out that he had escaped, they would not be able to find the person they wanted to arrest. Wouldn't it be better?
Yu Maimai murmured a few words in Concubine Liu's ear, and Concubine Liu immediately opened her eyes wide in surprise: "There really is such a magical mask in this world?"

Yu Maimai nodded: "Yes, ma'am."

"Okay, let's do this! Tonight, we will do it!"

Concubine Liu found that this Yu Maimai not only could cook exquisite delicacies, but also had such a magical mask on her body, she instantly became interested in her.

"Where do you live, I want to go to where you live and discuss with you about tonight's affairs."

How could Yu Maimai not know what Concubine Liu meant? She said euphemistically, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the place where the women live will be polluted and your identity will be tarnished. How about this, the women should say a few words to Li Shengwang first. , if it’s evening, I’ll wait for your empress on the Crescent Moon Bridge at the east gate, okay?”

"Okay, that's fine, then I will leave first."

After Concubine Liu left, Yu Maimai walked over quickly and snatched the bamboo basket, but the basket was empty, not a single crumb of pastry could be seen.

"You are crazy, you have eaten so much left? How many days have you not eaten?"

Li Shengwang sat on the ground, staring at Yu Maimai blankly: "You, you cruel woman, I'm going to die, you're finally here?"

"Hey, what are you dying for? You can't die!"

The yamen servant outside the door came in and knocked twice: "It's almost time, it's time!"

Yu Maimai glanced at the man, she didn't know why, seeing him sitting on the ground, her heart was stabbed by something sharp, her body trembled, and the tears couldn't be stopped slip down.

"I must save you! Wait!" Yu Maimai glanced at Li Shengwang and made up his mind secretly.

Qiao Mai glanced at Yu Maimai, and said happily: "Well, it seems that I have seen my lord, if you are moved by my lord, try to save him, maybe you can still together?"

Yu Maimai took a look, and there were still a few yamen servants drinking in front of her, she snorted coldly: "You think highly of me, your lord is at least an official, he can't save himself, I am nothing, but a villager It's just a woman, how can you have such a skill?"

Qiao Mai stood where he was, shaking his head in despair.

"My lord, what's the matter? Did you say anything to that Yu Maimai? Can she save you?"

"Pedantic! Who is Mr. Xiangguo? He has all the power in the government, even the emperor is under his control. Yu Maimai is just a pitiful village woman. What are you thinking?"

Qiao Mai thought about it too.

"However, she herself said that she can save me, and I can't die. I have the right to take such a joke as comfort. You two must take good care of her when you go out now. Don't let her suffer any grievances in the capital. do you know?"

Qiao Mai was surprised: "She said that, really? My lord!"

Li Shengwang nodded.

"My lord, since she said so, there must be a way, don't worry! By the way, my lord, when we first came in, we were stopped by two guards. The guards wanted to cheat us for money, but they didn't expect that, On the contrary, we were cheated by that woman Yu Maimai, and we brothers had a lot of fun watching, this guard has always cheated others, but he didn't expect to be cheated by Yu Maimai, and it was a big bag of money?"

Li Shengwang burst out laughing immediately: "Sure enough, I'm not mistaken, this woman is really weird, she's in the dungeon but she still thinks about how to make money, even the guard's money, if the money has eyes, she will get it went in."
