Chapter 124: Waste of Grain
Back at Wutong Hutong, Hua Jingyao's little face collapsed again.
No one called my sister, the silly boy who was jumping around, didn't know where to endure hardships and starves at this moment.
Princess Zhaoyang secretly glanced at her baby daughter and wanted to persuade her, but she would rather avoid it, so as not to make her daughter unhappy. Yesterday, the four little handsome men were still moving stone locks on the west road with the big sun.
The eunuch Li Yunquan was waiting at the second gate. When Princess Zhaoyang saw him here, she frowned slightly. On weekdays, Li Yunquan was responsible for sending letters and signs to the palace. If there was any news in the palace, she would hand it over to him first and then report it to Jinyuan.
Hua Jingyao also knew what Li Yunquan did. Seeing that he was waiting here, he knew that there was news in the palace. This so-called news was of course not a formal imperial edict.
Hua Jingyao did not stop. The news brought by Li Yunquan was eight out of ten times, and it was three missing one in Cining Palace.
Seeing Li Yunquan, Princess Zhaoyang remembered that she wanted to ask her daughter for her advice. Before Li Yunquan could speak, she said, "You go into the palace tomorrow, and ask Madam Hui to choose two teaching madams with good personalities."
"No." Li Yunquan lowered his eyebrows and eyes, but had no intention of leaving.
Princess Zhaoyang frowned slightly and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Li Yunquan looked around and whispered: "When I was in the palace, I heard a few gossips."
"Come on the way." Princess Zhaoyang said in a deep voice.
As soon as this said, the maids and eunuchs who were originally standing behind Princess Zhaoyang retreated a few feet away. Li Yunquan stepped forward and lowered his voice and said, "I heard that something happened to the Duke Yongguo Mansion again. Commander Gong has been there in person. I saw him in the palace and went to meet the saint."
Princess Zhaoyang's heart moved. When she was in the Longan Palace, she also saw Wu, the wife of the second wife of the Shen family of Duke Yong's Mansion. Judging from Wu's appearance, she didn't look like something happened at home.
"When did this happen?" asked Princess Zhaoyang.
"It has been less than half an hour since I met Commander Gong," Li Yunquan said.
Princess Zhaoyang nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's take a rest."
Li Yunquan turned and retreated, and the eldest princess Zhaoyang called softly: "Xiao Dong."
A black-clad guard came over quietly. He was about sixteen or seventeen years old. His appearance was rare in the Princess's Mansion, and even his figure was not outstanding.
"Take people to the Duke of Yongguo's Mansion and the second house of the Shen family to see it, and don't disturb the Feiyuwei." Princess Zhaoyang ordered.
"No." Xiaodong left.
Princess Zhaoyang sighed. Perhaps Li Yunquan was thinking too much. Gong Qing went to see the emperor just to find Shen Xiao’s affairs. In short, it was just this matter. There was no serious master in the Duke of Yongguo’s mansion. What else could happen? I just don’t know how Shen Xiao’s child was.
In the embroidery garden, Hua Jingyao called A, B, B, and D over and said, "Yesterday you should have seen all of His Highness the Second Prince. It seems that his injury has healed."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Ding said first: "Young man, go and beat him back to the hospital bed."
"The fourth brother!" Shi Jia shouted in a deep voice.
Shi Ding stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to talk anymore. He was afraid of his elder brother, although he didn't think what he said was wrong.
"He is only in his teenage years and has decades of old age. We can't let him spend the rest of his life on the sickbed. That's too pitiful." Miss Hua's whole body was shining with the glory of the Holy Mother, which made people unbearable to look at it.
Shi Bing was a little embarrassed and said hesitantly: "But it's the prince after all. If he is letting him die... it's not that the young people dare not take action, but if they check this matter carefully..."
No need to think about it, but I will definitely check it carefully and dig three feet into the entire capital to investigate. The other three princes are the first to be affected.
Although the second prince looked like he had no chance of the throne, no matter how small the mosquito was, he was still a prince. Moreover, today he only had four princes.
Miss Hua's Virgin's glory is still flashing: "Well, I think so too, so take it slowly. I will kill him sooner or later, so we don't have to hurry. Thinking about wasting food for him, I feel sorry for those suffering people."
A, B, C and D all twitched their mouths at the same time. How much does her own girl hate the Second Prince? Even the second Prince ate the food.
"Shi Yi, let me find a way to send a few people to the Longan Prince's Mansion in Zaoshu Hutong." Hua Jingyao said.
"Okay, let's do it now," Shi Yi said in response.
Hua Jingyao looked at Shi Bing again and said, "Continue to look for Xiaoli, and tell me any clues."
Shi Bing felt uncomfortable. Although Xiaoli was stupid, she was very sensible and obedient. Of course, she only listened to the girl alone.
"Young guy knows, don't worry, girl." Shi Bing said.
Hua Jingyao sighed that was inconsistent with her age and said, "Let's report the case in Shuntian Mansion."
Although Constable Yin helped find the street sweeper, she did not report the case officially. It was because Hua Jingyao felt that when it comes to finding someone, she was no worse than the arresters under Captain Yin. However, after searching for three days, she began to suspect that Xiaoli might be no longer near the capital.
"Shi Jia, please go there and ask Qin Fucheng if you can send a document to find someone. Please help the yamen at all levels in Beizhili to find it."
Shi Jia said: "I'll go now."
This matter may not be done, so it is most appropriate for him to come forward. He is just a servant, and it is harmless whether it is done or not. At that time, the girl will just assume that this is not happening. But if the girl talks by herself, if it fails, both Qin Fucheng and her own girl will be embarrassed.
"Girl, what about me?" Seeing that all three brothers had errands, Shi Ding couldn't wait.
"You? Just follow me. If I am bullied by a girl, you beat him up for me!" Hua Jingyao smiled.
After sending A, B, C and D away, Hua Jingyao was in a little better. She had almost no food in the Longan Palace today. She was already hungry now.
Before the meal was over, Xiao Ai brought the snacks in. Hua Jingyao saw the rice cake in the sweet white porcelain plate at a glance.
Xiaoli's voice sounded in her ears again: "There are too many osmanthus flowers, not delicious."
She picked up a rice cake, broke it apart, and saw that there was indeed a filling and bean paste filling inside.
She leaned to her nose and smelled it, but she didn't smell the smell of osmanthus.
"There is no sugary osmanthus in the rice cake?" Hua Jingyao asked.
Xiao Ai smiled and said, "Girl, try this rice cake. This kitchen is made according to the method taught by Xiao Li..."
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Ai knew that she had said the wrong thing. The girl clearly was because Xiao Li was still annoyed. Why did she mention Xiao Li again? Sister Ziwei taught her a lesson right. She and Xiao Xia were just two young men, and they didn't know how they could live until now.
"Girl, I'm a servant..."
"You said that it was following the method taught by Xiaoli? He taught the kitchen to make snacks?" Hua Jingyao was a little curious. Why didn't she know about this?
