Lihua considered whether to wait for Wu Xue to come back before leaving, but she couldn't tell when the big cat would come back.
In the palace, Lihua was not worried about Wu Xue's safety. She was worried about Wu Xue's safety. She was afraid that something might happen to Zhichun and Xiao Zuozi, so she decided to leave first.
If Wu Xueru chases a bird and comes back to find her, he will follow the scent and chase him back.
Lihua walked for a while and saw a palace maid in front of her walking from the other end of the palace road with her head lowered. She felt like she had seen that figure before somewhere.
She couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
Just when the two were about to meet, the palace maid raised her head slightly, smiled strangely at Lihua, turned around and quickly ran away in the other direction.
Lihua's eyes narrowed, her heart suddenly beat wildly, and the blood rushed from the soles of her feet to the sky, and she ran after him without even thinking.
It's the maid pretending to be from Zhuang Ning Palace!
The palace maid who tried to lure her to Jinghong Palace in Wu Fang'er's case, and the person who was the biggest murderer behind Wu Fang'er's death!!!
By Taiye Lake.
Yu Jieyu was left alone, and she was still upset. She cursed to herself that the bird would not fall off until she passed by, which was really a disadvantage when going out.
There were rotten leaves on the ground filled with moisture, insects crawling around, and no one around.
When she saw that it was the mother-in-law in the palace, Yu Jieyu breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "Who are you and why are you here?!"
Not to mention that she liked the hairpin, she was afraid that the servants below would pick it up and hide it, and she was even more afraid that other masters would pick it up and keep it secretly to make ghosts.
The more people the better, otherwise she would show her grievances to no one.
Yu Jieyu saw the figure that flashed past. The old man's hand hidden behind his back was holding a sack and something. When he turned around, the sunlight reflected the bright spots on the blade of the knife.
Fortunately, her sprained foot was not very severe, it only hurt slightly, and it got better after a while.
As she said that, she pinched Bicai hard.
Thinking of this, Yu Jieyu couldn't sit still at all. She couldn't help but stand up and said with a sigh: "If I had known earlier, I would have ruled out the illness."
She turned and asked eagerly: "But Empress Yu Jieyu?"
Aunt Li's face showed sadness: "Oh, this slave is just a miserable person who passed by here because of a forced errand."
Aunt Li suddenly took action and pushed her hard.
Bicai had no choice but to walk back along the way. After taking a few steps, Yu Jieyu was reminded and stopped the person: "If you meet other people when you come back, don't worry about the master and the slave. Try to find a way to lure them here. Okay.
Yes, you go and come back quickly!"
Just when Yu Jieyu and Bicai were walking some distance away from Taiye Lake, a bird suddenly fell from the treetops, startling the two of them.
She couldn't help but look frequently in the direction Bicai left, regretting letting Bicai go and leaving herself alone in this ghost place.
"What are you talking about? Go quickly. What will happen if she comes? She dares to eat me!"
The man supported her with a kind smile on his face: "My dear, are you okay?"
The palace maid was extremely fast, not inferior to her at all.
The lake breeze caressed by, bringing moist moisture into the tip of her nose, and Yu Jieyu relaxed a little.
Yu Jieyu frowned and didn't understand what he meant, and was about to ask.
She screamed "ah" and her heart almost stopped in fear.
It was a hairpin that she carefully selected. It was very expensive and was specially chosen for the appointment.
But when they arrived at the rendezvous destination, Yu Jieyu suddenly discovered that her favorite hairpin was missing.
Yu Jieyu thought about it and felt that the hairpin must have fallen where she fell.
Maybe not many people come here. There is no guardrail made of stone beside the lake embankment. The surrounding road is covered with dead branches and leaves. Only her big stone is cleaner. It can be seen that the people of Shanggong Bureau did not take care of it very much in the past.
here.
The more she sat, the more gloomy she felt. Her heart was so frightened that she couldn't help but think wildly.
Yu Jieyu raised her eyes and saw a woman with a bruised face looking at her with concern, looking miserable.
Bicai endured the pain and Noonuo agreed, but she was a little hesitant: "Master, can I leave you alone? Wu Meiren will come later..."
She wanted to see the old man who was behaving strangely on the other side. When she heard the question behind her, she felt a little strange. She turned back and asked, "How do you know who I am?"
Bicai took the order and left, hurriedly looking for Yu Jieyu's hairpin.
Yu Jieyu sat on the stone, turned to face Taiye Lake, and saw the sparkling water on the lake, the thin water waves gently lapping the lake embankment on the shore, and fine water droplets gradually rising, reflecting the crystal light in the morning sun.
Even if she shows weakness, she doesn't want to show weakness to the end.
There was just a pop sound, and someone fell into the water, causing waves to appear on the lake.
There are very few people in the harem here, and she is alone now. If Wu Zhaoyi wants to harm her...
So she couldn't care so much, and couldn't help but urge Bicai to go back and look for it, and find the hairpin first.
When she looked at him, the old man's expression suddenly became ferocious and twisted, and he ducked into the tree next to him.
At the same time, in the imperial garden forest, Lihua chased the palace maid.
Yu Jieyu was very impatient and anxious.
Yu Jieyu was frightened, her feet slipped for some reason, and she fell to the ground with her ankle sprained.
Just after saying this, she suddenly caught a glimpse of an old man on the other side of the lake from the corner of her eye, looking straight in this direction with his hands behind his back.
Yu Jieyu was sitting on a stone by the lake, feeling depressed and complaining about Bicai:
"If you hadn't supported me, how could I have sprained my feet? If I hadn't sprained my feet, my hairpin wouldn't have been lost. It's my favorite hairpin. Go back and look for it quickly. If you teach someone passing by to pick it up,
No, I will definitely not be able to spare you."
Her heart was beating fast, and she was about to leave in a hurry, but when she turned around, she bumped into someone.
There was not enough sunlight in the morning, and the towering trees behind her were covered in pale white light under the sun, and there were shadows everywhere.
Waiting and waiting, Yu Jieyu became uneasy and looked up at the sky: "The time is up, why doesn't Wu Zhaoyi come? Are you kidding me?"
Yu Jieyu began to feel nervous: "What a shabby place. No one passed by after sitting for half a day. Why did Wu Zhaoyi invite me here?"
When Yu Jieyu saw the wounds on her face and scars on her hands, she thought she must be a palace maid who had done something wrong and was punished, so she let her guard down a bit.
A deep smile appeared on Aunt Li's face: "You are exquisite and beautiful, and you are here, so you can't go wrong. I'm a slave. You are polite. It was the slave sent by Wu Zhaoyi. If you want to blame me, blame her."
She blamed herself for a while before she was in the mood to look around.
There was a roar in Yu Jieyu's mind, and only two words came to her mind: kill, dump the body!
But when she turned around and looked around, she couldn't help feeling terrified.
Lihua chases after her. As long as she catches this palace maid, she can follow the clues and figure out the person behind the scenes. What a temptation.
The two of them chased each other and ran away, covering a lot of distance in an instant.
When Lihua was about to catch the palace maid several times, she always let her dodge.
While running, she looked at the terrain in front of her, her mind changed, and she immediately pulled out two hairpins from her head and threw them in two directions.
