Chapter 20 Is there someone outside?

It was a great victory, but Liu E was not happy at all.

She opened the window and leaned against the moon. She was wearing the same white dress that frightened Mrs. Yue.

The moonlight in the sky is cold and cold. It is obviously the most meager color, but it is regarded as a symbol of reunion. It is really ridiculous to think about it.

"In a cage, yin and yang are separated. There are many heroes who are generous, and they are like Qing's song. The red makeup is busy, no one is with Du Kang. The black magpie is busy around the branches, who is the new bud? The old tree promotes spring hair, the moon shines And depend on each other..."

Ying'er made the bed and saw her girl still staying by the window to enjoy the breeze. She quickly helped her put on clothes and closed the window.

"The girl got back the late wife's dowry today, but why do you think that the girl is not very happy?" Although Ying'er didn't understand poetry, she felt that the girl's words were really sad.

"It's just something I felt." Liu E lowered her eyelashes and covered most of her face in the quilt.

After she put down her fierce and aggressive aura, she was as fragile as a glazed doll.

"Ying'er," Liu E looked sideways at Ying'er, "you won't betray me, right?"

"Why did the girl ask like that?" Ying'er blinked, knelt down in front of the bed, and lay beside Liu E, "Ying'er will not betray the girl."

There was a faint smile on Liu E's lips, "I believe you."

***
As soon as the matter in the Liu Mansion was settled, Grandma Li wanted to go back and resume her life.

The second lady acted vigorously and resolutely, and snatched back most of the dowry in almost one day.

But she still had doubts in her heart, wondering how the second lady could conclude that Mrs. Yue would transfer the dowry on the ninth night of the Lunar New Year after only listening to Yu Chuan's one-sided words?
Ying'er also had this doubt.

Liu E smiled lightly and tapped Ying'er's head, "Secret."

——A secret again!
Ying'er pursed her lips, hating secrets.

But Liu E knew, how could there be any secret? !

She just didn't believe it instinctively.

She is suspicious by nature.Although I talk to people, I rarely truly believe anyone.

What's more, the jade bracelet was originally a second-class maid in Liu Yan's courtyard.Even if Liu Yan really sent a jade bracelet to send a message, she would only say "act on the tenth day of the lunar month" and would never analyze the reasons in detail.

unless……

What Yuchai said was taught word by word by Qin!
This was indeed the case. If she didn't have this disbelief, how could she have used a little trick to frighten Mr. Qin into unconsciousness?

Looking at the entire Liu Mansion, it is unbelievable that there are all flesh and blood relatives all over the body, let alone a little maid?

The more Linglong is thoughtful, the more Liu E likes the kind of loyal person who can be trusted with his back.

She needs to develop her own confidant.

"Mother Li, you are familiar with my mother's dowry shop. I wonder which of the shops has a loyal and capable manager? I want to promote a capable person to take charge of the general affairs outside." Liu E said insinuatingly.

When Nanny Li went back this time, she brought many return gifts prepared by the second lady, as well as some relics of the late wife, and she was also very happy in her heart.

At that moment, he bowed and said, "In terms of loyalty, Manager Zhu of Silk and Satin Manor is reliable. He died a few years ago, and if it hadn't been for Madam's intervention, he would have been buried in the earth long ago. Therefore, I feel most grateful to Madam. Manager Zhu's The first wife is also the right person for the wife she married, and the three sons are at the age of seeking employment. Is the girl going to find them? "

"That's fine." Liu E thought about this situation in her mind, and smiled at the corners of her lips, "In that case, I can ask Aunt Li to pass on the message on my behalf, and bring along the account books of the Silk Satin Village."

"Yes."

After half of the money problem was solved, Liu E thought of the fifth prince again.

Now Mrs. Qin hated her, so Liu E just asked the maids to close the courtyard door tightly and not to come into contact with the people in the madam's courtyard, so as not to get into trouble again.

Although it is the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, it is the time for the entire Shouxing Mansion to welcome the departure.Ms. Qin, however, postponed most of the party because she felt unwell.

She was indeed feeling unwell, her chest felt swollen and aching, and she just wanted to cut that little bitch's hoof in two.

But when I think of the face I saw that night, I can't get angry no matter how much I try.Especially when the ghost said "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Pills", Mrs. Qin felt quite terrified that someone had revealed her secret.

This is also the reason why she didn't come to seek Liu E's bad luck.

"Mother, what did you see that night?" Liu Yan was a little worried about Mrs. Qin after being released.

Nowadays, Mrs. Qin is so thoughtful and worried that even the slightest noise will scare her.

"Shut up! I didn't see anything!" Mrs. Qin scolded with a cold eyebrow, "She has been dead for so many years. She couldn't fight me in life, and she can't fight me in death! In a few days, I will ask someone to perform a ritual ceremony. Even the strongest ghosts can be driven away!"

Liu Yan pursed her lips and remained silent, her heart deepening towards Liu E's methods.

"Why hasn't your father come to have dinner?" Mrs. Qin looked at the sky and asked.

"First, dad sent someone to say that he would have a drink with Mr. Jiang tonight and let us eat first," Liu Yan said.

Mrs. Qin's face showed some sadness again, "Your brother is staying at my master's house for the New Year this year and can't go home. Your father behaves like this. He really doesn't think he has a home!"

At this point, she brought up another matter, "You can't keep that maid's jade bracelet anymore. Find a Zhuangzi steward to match her, and you can find a good home for her."

"Mother..." Liu Yan just felt that Mrs. Qin was crazy.

***
On the other side, Liu E took a rest early after finishing her meal, and the whole yard suddenly became dark.

At the corner door of Liu Mansion, Liu E, dressed as a maid, followed Ying'er out.

It is said that once you are born, you will be cooked again, and Liu E is now more mature than ever.

Holding a handful of burning red plums in her hand, she climbed up the wall from the old willow tree outside the palace in a few leaps.

This time, instead of jumping back into the deserted courtyard, Liu E just walked along the wall for a while in the direction in his memory, and then took advantage of the momentum to jump, and landed in the courtyard like a light falcon.

After confirming which room was Nan Rongyi's room, she placed the few red plums on the window sill outside, then raised her hand and tapped the window lightly.

Liu E is not that little girl who has a crush on her.

She just wants to please people, but she also wants to make people think of her well.

When the window moved slightly, she hid her figure again and hid in the corner to observe.

The one who opened the window was a little maid, with pretty features.After seeing those few red plums, his eyes suddenly stopped.

There was a coughing sound in the house, followed by a male voice saying, "Is there someone outside?"

The little maid glanced around and called back, "There is no one there. There are only a few red plums in full bloom on the window sill."

After saying that, he gathered the red plums lightly and entered the house, and the window was closed again.

inside the house.

Nan Rongyi's eyes darkened when he saw those red plum blossoms that were still white with frost.

His Changshan Palace has always been a place where the secret guards of the princes can come and go freely.I just don’t know who else is brave enough to come here blatantly and yet leave behind these scorching red plums?
The sixth brother has always had a cold and solemn temper, and would not do such mundane things; the third emperor brother is far away from the capital now, and he will not do such things.

There is only one person left who can do this...

A pair of bright eyes suddenly appeared in front of him. They were scorching and thick and sticky. When they looked at him, they seemed to be hunting a wild beast. When they looked away, they showed no attachment...

"Your Majesty... do you want these red plums to be placed indoors?" Tartary Buckwheat didn't know what Nan Rongyi meant, so he asked cautiously.

"Throw it out the window." Nan Rong Yi said coldly.

"Yes."
