Chapter 80: 80 The Wedding Night Stays Alone in the Empty Room 4
The winding path is paved with smooth bluestone slabs, and a wooden pole is inserted every five steps, with a big red lantern hanging on the wooden pole.
After walking through the path, you will reach the nine-curved corridor, with glass lamps hanging above the corridor.
Bai Kaixin walked along the corridor and saw many servants coming and going carrying dishes with leftover soup and water that smelled of vegetables and wine.
Seizing the opportunity, he asked the maid who seemed to have a better temper and said with a smile: "Sister, why are you still busy at this late hour?"
The maid saw that she was dressed simply, and her hair was only tied up in a bun. Although it was quite pleasing to the eye, she was neither coquettish nor beautiful, so she was probably a maid, right? [
"Why have I never seen you?" The maid was still a little wary.
Bai Kaixin sighed and said: "To be honest with my sister, I am the princess's maid. I just passed the palace today, so my sister has never seen me."
Hearing what she said, a trace of sympathy appeared in the maid's eyebrows: "Then why are you running out so late and no longer staying in your mother-in-law's house?"
Seeing that she believed what he said, Bai Kaixin knew that he could ask more questions, so he could only continue to lie: "The queen asked me to come out and find out, when will the prince come?"
Hearing what she said, the maid's expression tightened, and she pulled her to the corridor and whispered: "The prince has rested in Concubine Liu's room tonight. Go back and tell the empress not to wait any longer."
After speaking, he said rather mysteriously: "Don't tell others that I told you."
"Well," Bai Kaixin nodded repeatedly and said, "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone else. I will thank you on behalf of your empress."
"Then go back quickly!" the maid urged.
"Uh, sister, what are you doing?" Bai Kaixin had another question.
"The prince has invited a lot of guests today, and many of them are still here to enjoy the fireworks in the hall. We are here to pack them up and give them some midnight snacks." After saying this, I saw someone coming from behind with a plate, and the maid was busy.
Said: "I won't talk to you anymore, I'm leaving!"
The maid left in a hurry. Bai Kaixin looked at the fireworks in the sky and thought to himself, the prince himself went to sleep in the concubine's room, and left the guests at home to watch the fireworks. It was so festive and hypocritical!
