In the palace, Luo Junyao walked into his room and stopped instantly.
Her eyes that were originally smiling became sharp in an instant, and she quickly scanned the room to make sure there was no one in the room before slowly walking in.
Soon she walked into the back bedroom and pulled out a small roll of paper from the seal under the bed.
He slowly opened the paper roll and read the writing on it, then crushed the paper roll and threw it into the room and the gold and silver bottle placed in the corner, and poured half a cup of tea into it.
After doing this last night, she tidied up her appearance, got up and walked out of the room.
I don't know whether it was always like this in the palace of the Qi people, or whether Luo Junyao entered the palace at a bad time. Luo Junyao had never seen a relaxed and cheerful scene and atmosphere in the palace.
The entire Queen Mother Palace was quiet during the day. If it weren't for the maids passing by from time to time, one would almost think it was an empty palace.
Luo Junyao is already the liveliest person in the palace.
Naturally, there are people who can't stand someone like her, and Yun Chang is the worst among them.
After all, everyone in the palace except Bai Jingrong is a maid, and now Chu Chu suddenly appears. She was also a maid, but because of Bai Jingrong's whim, her status became aloof.
Ordinary maids would not dare to offend Luo Junyao easily even if they were jealous, but Yun Chang had no such scruples.
She is a trusted confidant of the Queen Mother, and her family has some roots in the Bai family. How can a newly arrived helpless little girl compare to her?
In the past two days, Yun Chang looked more and more proud for some unknown reason.
At this time, seeing Luo Junyao's brisk steps and humming a song at ease, he couldn't help but sink his face.
"Chuchu! Come here!"
Luo Junyao looked at her, raised his finger and pointed at himself: Call me?
Yun Chang snorted coldly and said, "Who am I not telling you to call?"
Luo Jun shrugged, walked over and asked, "Sister Yun Chang, what's the matter?"
Yun Chang looked her up and down and said, "Are you in a good mood?"
"Not bad." Luo Jun said with a smile.
Yun Chang sneered and said: "Since you are so free, go and do something to repay your love for me. We don't have idle people in this palace."
Luo Junyao said innocently: "But, I have nothing to do. I have learned everything Sister Bai Ning taught me. Sister Bai Ning said that I don't need to learn anymore."
In fact, Bai Jingrong didn't intend to teach her anything profound and powerful, just some superficial rules and personnel relations in the Qi Clan's royal city.
As long as you have a good memory, this won't take much time.
But to Yun Chang's ears, it was Luo Junyao who was deliberately showing off.
"Since you don't have to study anymore, then go do something." Yun Chang said: "Don't forget, you are not a princess yet. You have been lazy all day long, and the Queen Mother still can't find anyone for you!"
Ji Zhan disagreed, so Bai Jingrong temporarily gave up the matter of adopting an adopted daughter.
Although Luo Junyao enjoyed different treatment in the palace, she was still essentially a maid.
"I didn't run around, I was just in my room." Luo Junyao blinked, "What does the empress want from me?"
Yun Chang handed her a box in her hand and said: "This, I order you to deliver it to General Wu Ye."
Luo Junyao said happily: "Can I leave the palace? Then can I play outside the palace for a while?
Yun Chang said contemptuously: "Who told you that General Wu is outside the palace? General Wu came to the palace today on the order of the king to discuss matters. He is currently resting in the room south of the Yizheng Hall. The Queen Mother sympathizes with the general's hard work, and this is intentional
I asked you to send it to the general."
Yun Chang couldn't help but push the things to Luo Junyao and said: "Go quickly, the general will have a meeting with the king in the afternoon, don't delay the general's rest."
"Did the empress really ask me to send it?" Luo Junyao asked doubtfully.
Yun Chang sneered: "What else? Do you think everyone else is just like you and only knows how to be lazy?"
"Oh." Luo Junyao couldn't refuse, so he had to take the things obediently.
Looking at her leaving figure, Yun Chang sneered, her eyes filled with gloating.
What a stupid girl!
After leaving the gate of the Queen Mother's Palace, Luo Junyao looked at the box in his hand and sighed softly.
Yun Chang would leave this matter to her, and she had absolutely no good intentions.
So is there something wrong with the thing that was sent? Or is there something wrong with the person who sent the thing?
But just in time, she was just about to find a way to go out.
Luo Junyao walked slowly in the palace holding the box. Most of the maids and guards in the palace knew that she was now a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother, so they would not stop her.
Occasionally, someone would come up and say a few words, or give directions.
The Yizheng Hall is not far from the Queen Mother's Palace, and you can reach it in a short time after walking through the garden.
Luo Junyao stood not far away and looked around. There were many guards guarding the hall.
South side...
She glanced at a row of houses not far from the Council Hall, and without stopping, her gaze turned to the identical row of houses on the other side.
The architecture of the royal palaces of the Qi people is not as elaborate as that in the Central Plains. Except for the more exquisite residence where the Queen Mother and Queen Qi live, most of the others are rows of two-story buildings like this.
They are all houses made of stone, and there is almost no difference in appearance.
Luo Jun looked around and walked decisively towards the north.
A row of marble buildings with more than twenty rooms on the upper and lower floors. It was very quiet at this time, with only a few guards guarding the building.
Seeing Luo Jun coming over, they all looked over immediately.
Luo Junyao stepped forward and explained his purpose. One of the guards looked at her strangely and said, "General Wu Ye is not here. This is where the chiefs and generals of our clan work and rest."
Luo Junyao naturally knew that the Qi tribe was still very repulsive to outsiders. Even though the previous Qi kings doted on Bai Jingrong and put great emphasis on the Central Plains people who came with Bai Jingrong, they could not change the minds of these Qi tribe nobles.
Therefore, even in the palace where people work and rest, the Qi people can be distinguished from other people.
But her face was very confused, "But this is where Sister Yun Chang told me? Did you remember it wrong?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yun Chang is one of the stewards around Bai Jingrong, and these guards naturally know it.
The guard was not angry either. He looked at Luo Junyao and said, "Young lady must have gone in the wrong direction. General Wu Ye's house is in the south. This is the north."
After that, he pointed in the direction for her and said, "It's over there. It's easy to recognize. The house is the same as here."
Luo Junyao looked relieved and said with a smile: "So that's it. Thank you for your advice."
Then he turned around and left in a hurry.
"etc."
Suddenly, a male voice speaking in Qi dialect came from behind. Luo Junyao looked back and saw a Qi man in his forties or fifties standing at the door and looking at her.
The man was wearing a luxurious robe and had a short knife on his waist. It was obvious at a glance that he was an extraordinary person.
Naturally, Luo Junyao didn't recognize this man, but the guards quickly turned around and saluted the man. Only then did Luo Junyao know the man's identity.
"I've met General Zuo."
This man is none other than Ji Xu, the left general of the Qi tribe. Not only does he have a large number of troops, he is also the half-brother of the late Qi King Ji Zhan and the biological uncle of Ji Zhan and Ji Rong.
Hearing Luo Junyao's words, Ji Xu raised his eyebrows and said, "You are not from the Qi tribe, but you can speak the Qi tribe's dialect quite well."
Luo Junyao said: "My father is from the Central Plains and my mother is from the Western Regions. I have learned some Qi dialect before."
"Is that the girl who was newly adopted by the Queen Mother?"
Luo Junyao agreed.
Ji Xu's eyes looked around him, and then he laughed and said: "It's rare for the Queen Mother to be so leisurely and relaxed. How dare you, the girl, run here? I heard that the king is not very happy when he comes in."
"
Luo Junyao quickly said that he was clearly here to deliver something.
Ji Xu glanced at the box in her hand, took a few steps forward and walked to Luo Junyao, reaching out to open the black box.
Luo Junyao couldn't help but take a step back, avoiding his hand.
Ji Xu looked at her with interest.
"This...this is what the empress gave to General Wu Ye."
After hearing this, Ji Xu, who had a gentle face at first, suddenly sneered and said: "Given to Wu Ye? What? I can't see it?"
Luo Jun hesitated to speak, as if he was frightened.
Ji Xu sneered when he saw this and reached out to lift the lid.
There is a brocade sachet in the box. It is light green in color and has auspicious patterns embroidered with exquisite embroidery work. It looks like something from the Central Plains.
Ji Xu frowned, reached for the sachet and looked at it carefully. It contained the usual sachet sachet. Although the Qi people didn't like to use this stuff, they couldn't see anything wrong with it.
After watching for a long time, Ji Xu threw the things back into the box and sneered: "I heard that the Queen Mother and Wu Ye have a good relationship, and they sent someone to deliver the things now. It seems to be really good."
Luo Junyao hugged the box as if he was at a loss, "General Zuo, can I go?"
"Let's go." Ji Xu suddenly lost interest when he saw her timid appearance.
He was originally interested in the girl Bai Jingrong had his eye on. After all, Bai Jingrong was a poisonous snake. What simple thing could make her fall in love?
Who would have thought that she would be such an ordinary little girl.
Luo Junyao breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ran away quickly.
Luo Junyao didn't wander around anymore this time, and walked directly to the south.
She was also curious about the things Bai Jingrong gave to Wu Ye. Why should he give them when Wu Ye entered the palace? It was just a gift. What did it mean to give a sachet?
In just a moment, Luo Junyao clearly remembered the appearance and scent of the sachet.
The incense is Bai Jingrong's usual incense. Although it is a bit strange to give it to a man, it doesn't seem strange considering Bai Jingrong's usual behavior.
Is it really just for flirting?
Luo Jun shook his head, and then thought about the embroidery on the sachet, which meant good luck and good luck. What was its meaning?
It can’t be that the secret is actually hidden inside the sachet, right?
Luo Junyao thought about it all the way, but still didn't move to open the sachet.
The south side is cooler than the north side, there are no guards at all, and there are only two Bai family army guards at the door.
Hearing that Luo Junyao was here to deliver something to Wu Ye, the guards let him in without even questioning him.
There seemed to be no one in the whole house. Luo Jun walked up to the second floor and heard laughter coming from one side.
She walked over quietly and saw Wu Ye in the room with the door wide open, playing and teasing with two maids in his arms.
Seeing her appear at the door, Wu Ye stopped, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Are you...that Chu Chu?"
"Exactly, Chu Chu was ordered by the Queen Mother to send something to the general." Luo Jun said.
Wu Ye sat up, but did not let go of the two maids. He just said lazily: "Oh? Take it over and put it on the table."
Luo Junyao walked in, put the box on the table, bowed and left.
Wu Ye reached out and opened the box, took a look, and then closed the box.
"etc."
Luo Junyao turned around and asked, "General, do you have any other orders?"
Wu Ye chuckled lightly and said, "Come here and have a drink with me, the general."
"I, I don't know how to drink." Luo Junyao said.
Wu Ye said coldly: "What if I have to let you drink?" After saying that, he stretched out his hand to push the two maids away, picked up the wine glass he had drank from the table and filled it before getting up and walking towards Luo Junyao.
When Luo Junyao saw this, he turned around and ran outside.
Wu Ye was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that she would run away so easily.
Ordinary maids would never dare to turn around and run away when encountering something like this.
Because they all know that there is no point in running, but they will only make themselves suffer.
Wu Ye sneered and didn't ask the guards below to stop him. He slowly put down his wine glass and followed him out.
He was not weak in martial arts. When he saw Luo Junyao rushing out from downstairs, he jumped out from the second floor and landed behind Luo Junyao.
Luo Junyao seemed to be startled, screamed, pulled out something, threw it at Wu Ye, turned around and ran away.
Wu Ye's face darkened, and he stretched out his hand to block the thing. It exploded instantly, and white powder fell all over Wu Ye.
Wu Ye looked up again and saw the direction in which she was escaping, and his expression suddenly became darker.
"Help, help!" A girl's cry for help suddenly came from the originally quiet and solemn place. Just when you were on duty, the guards turned to look over and saw the girl who had just left running in embarrassment from the other side of the road.
Came over.
Not far behind her, Wu Ye chased after her with a gloomy expression.
No matter how fast the girl ran, she would not be as fast as Wu Ye, who was a master of martial arts. She was about to be overtaken.
The guard was hesitating whether to take action or not. After all, this was a Central Plains people matter.
Although the girl was not entirely from the Central Plains, she was from the Queen Mother, and Wu Ye was also from the Queen Mother. If they interfered with this matter, they might be asking for trouble.
I don't know what they were thinking, but a man from the upstairs behind him had already jumped down.
After a few ups and downs, he passed them and landed right between Luo Junyao and Wu Ye who reached out to grab her.
The visitor looked down at Wu Ye's hand that had been stretched out in front of him and said calmly: "General Wu, what do you mean?"
Wu Ye withdrew his hand with a gloomy expression and said coldly: "This girl attacked me. The general is about to question her. General Zuo is meddling in other people's business."
"Attacked?" Ji Xu seemed to find it funny. He turned around and glanced at Luo Junyao, who was less than his shoulder height, and said, "General Wu was attacked by this little girl?"
Luo Junyao hid behind Wu Ye and shook his head repeatedly, saying: "I didn't! I didn't! It was... General Wu asked me to drink with him. I... I ran away because I don't know how to drink."
Wu Ye's face became even more ugly, and Ji Xu smiled and said: "We have to discuss things in the afternoon, but General Wu is still in the mood to drink. It shows that he really doesn't take the king seriously."
