"Xiang Ling, you should go back first. It's not good to be out for too long. I have to go back to the room to clean up before returning to the palace." Qing Ning calmly raised her voice a little.

Xiang Ling raised her eyebrows slightly: "Does the Fourth Prince really want you to return to the palace?"

"Well," Qing Ning nodded, "The case of the prince's wet nurse has been settled, hasn't it?"

After saying that, he seemed to suddenly remember something, "By the way, didn't the Queen Mother say last time that I would find a few people to teach them opera and then perform it on the Queen Mother's birthday? There has been no suitable candidate, and today I found one.

, her body shape, temperament, appearance and voice are all very good. When I return to the palace, I can call this person into the palace to teach her."

Xiangling was stunned, had the Queen Mother said this?

She doesn’t know about this!

Thinking that he might have told Qing Ning alone, he didn't ask any more questions. He was just curious about who the person who spoke so well was: "Which one? Do I know him?"

"Hmm..." Qing Ning tilted her head and thought for a moment, "I don't know if you recognize her, but you should have heard of her, Miss Ji Wan Qingji, the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Oh, she, I haven't seen her in person, but I have indeed heard of her. It is said that although she is the daughter of the prime minister's house, her life is not easy because she is a concubine."

"Yes, so she should be willing to let her enter the palace to learn opera. If she is a legitimate daughter, maybe not necessarily, right? After all, a place like the palace..." Qing Ning didn't finish her sentence,

He chuckled and gave Xiangling a "you know" look.

"Yeah." Xiangling nodded.

Of course she understands.

The deep palace is like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. It's not like you can go in and become the master. Who would be willing to enter easily?

"Okay, you can go back first. I'll be back soon anyway. It's okay for me to talk to the Queen Mother myself."

"good."

The two parted ways, and Xiang Ling carried the bamboo basket back. Qing Ning limped slightly and walked toward the maid's accommodation. When she met a maid, Qing Ning asked her: "Do you want to eat pumpkin seeds?"

Before the other party could react, Qing Ning stuffed the handful of pumpkin seeds into his hand: "It's skinny but fragrant. Don't worry, it's not poisonous."

Then, he left directly.

Bu Fengli was on the balcony on the second floor, and he saw all this in his eyes, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes darkened.

Zhong Li quickly went upstairs with light steps.

"Your Majesty, Qing Ning seems to have eaten the pumpkin seeds that the Prince gave her that day..."

"I have eyes." The man interrupted Zhong Li's words in a deep voice.

Well.

Zhong Li was startled for a moment. Yes, this man asked him to go down because he heard someone say something. As for what he did, he was on the balcony on the second floor and had a full view.

In fact, the reason why he mentioned this first thing was because he was too surprised.

I heard that the woman had always regarded those pumpkin seeds as a treasure, sowing them in various ways, hoping that one day she would grow a pumpkin that would make this man take notice.

Today...he actually ate it separately. He was so shocked that his jaw dropped.

Presumably this man didn't expect it either.

She raised her eyes slightly and secretly looked at the man's expression. Suddenly she saw the man glance over at him coldly: "Say it!"

He quickly looked away and recounted the conversation he had just heard between Qing Ning and Xiang Ling.

...

In the side room, Qing Ning looked around.

In fact, there was nothing to pack, and she didn't bring anything with her, just some special effects makeup items, which she had always carried with her.

She is waiting.

When Cui Ning came over, she was sitting on a stool rolling up her pants to check the injury on her leg.

"Why do you have time to sit here and rest? Aren't you going to sweep the floor of Prince Yi Yue's Mansion? It's already this hour, if you don't go and sweep it, will you be able to finish it?" Cui Ning came in with a bad tone.

Qing Ning could not help but curl her lips.

This has been waiting for!

His expression immediately changed into a look of joy: "Your Majesty, do you agree that I will stay?"

Cui Ning did not answer directly, only shook his head, with undisguised disgust in his eyes: "Go and sweep it quickly. If you don't want to be kicked away, don't be lazy!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Steward Cui," Qing Ning called him, "Do you have any medicine for a sprain caused by a fall?"

She just took a look and found that her knee was broken. The other one was still bearable. The main problem was her ankle. She had sprained her ankle and it was already swollen. It was too painful to walk. She needed to get some medicine to twist it.

"No." Cui Ning replied simply.

"Is there any wine? Just a little..."

"Yes, go get it yourself."

Qing Ning's eyes lit up with joy: "Where?"

"The prince's special kitchen, or the prince's wine cellar."

Qing Ning: "..."

Isn’t this equivalent to saying it in vain?

Are those two places where she can go to get it?

Cui Ning curled her lips and left.

...

In the yard, Qing Ning took a broom and swept it constantly.

It seems that Ji Wanqing is very useful. She just deliberately said that when she returned to the palace, she would call Ji Wanqing to study opera, so someone acted as a flower protector and let her stay in the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

She was not allowed to return to the palace.

This also proved once again that he had recognized Ji Wanqing as the person who saved him when he was a child.

Yeah, yeah, the emotional drama between the male protagonist and the female protagonist has just begun! Why is she so excited just thinking about her being an NPC?

Does it mean that she has also taken a small step towards success?

Although she still doesn't know what will happen in the end, but at least the relationship between the two has been greatly advanced.

Come on, Xiang Qing Ning!

But when she thought about the huge palace waiting for her to clean, especially when her legs hurt like nothing, she instantly became weak again.

Moreover, night scent must be poured out at night!

No, she had to get some medicine or wine and roll it in. Now, just standing, she barely put any force on this foot, and the pain was almost unbearable. When pouring night fragrance at night, she not only had to walk, but also had to unscrew the toilet.

Carrying a heavy load would definitely kill her.

liquor......

"Excuse me, big brother, where is the Wangfu wine cellar?" She stopped a passing servant and asked.

I don’t know if it was for the sake of calling her eldest brother, but the other party actually told her. He raised his finger and pointed in a direction: "The only room there with the door facing north is."

"Oh, thank you."

Qing Ning held the broom in his hand and started sweeping quickly. While sweeping, he endured the pain and moved in that direction.

Finally I scanned the front.

She was pleasantly surprised to find that there were no guards guarding the door, and the door was unlocked and still open.

Seeing no one around, she took a broom and swept in.

The house is large and empty. There is a big hole in the middle of the house. No, it should be said to be the entrance.

So, a wine cellar is an underground wine cellar?

It is worthy of being the fourth palace after the imperial palace!

She took the broom to the entrance and looked down. There were steps to go down, but it was dark inside and she couldn't see much.

She looked back at the door and saw no one, so she quickly took the broom in one hand and her skirt in the other, and walked down the stairs.
Chapter completed!
