Chong Ximo pulled Chu Qiao, hinting her to kneel down quickly.
Chu Qiao understood and quickly knelt down with the tray. After lowering her head, her vision became even more unclear. She could not even see the half-meter range. She could not even see the other person's shoes clearly. She could only feel that the emperor and Eunuch Heping were
The other person came closer and closer.
Perhaps because someone was blocking her, Chu Qiao's heart gradually calmed down a lot, and she was not as nervous as before.
After the emperor came over, Chong Ximo also bowed and paid homage.
"Xi Mo meets the Emperor."
"Xi Mo? I was just about to send someone to find you, and you came here. It seems that you and I really have the same mind. Get up quickly. There is no need to be so polite."
The emperor pulled Chong Ximo up and looked at the palace daughter who was kneeling behind him. He frowned unconsciously. What the young marquis said was true. Chongxi went in and out of the palace, except for Liu Zhang and Xu Jin.
, I always go my own way and rarely have the little palace daughter follow me. This is the first time I have made an exception, but I was bumped into by the young marquis and the emperor one after another. How can I not feel strange?
What's more, according to the rules in the palace, there is very little contact between ministers and maids, except in some necessary and public occasions.
After Chong Ximo stood up, he followed the emperor's gaze to Chu Qiao, who was kneeling next to him, and said calmly.
"Princess Xue Ning made some pastries and sent them over, but I don't like the taste very much."
"Haha, it turns out it's this girl Xuening. She has nothing else to do except look for you everywhere every day."
The emperor laughed. He knew his sister Xue Ning very well and knew that there was nothing that Xu Ning could not cause trouble. Just like now, sending a palace daughter to follow Chong Ximo with cakes is really disappointing.
Feeling embarrassed and having a headache.
"Xue Ning is spoiled." The emperor explained.
Chong Ximo also breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Chu Qiao and whispered.
"You should also get up, carry this tray out of this door, turn right at the first intersection and go straight, go back quickly without delay."
"yes……"
Chu Qiao responded hurriedly, lowered her head, stood up carefully, and hurriedly walked out of the Moon Gate carrying the cake.
After walking out of this fatal door, Chu Qiao leaned against the wall and let out a long breath. Fortunately, Chong Ximo appeared in time, otherwise it would have been a trivial matter to get rid of her today. The prince didn't take the opportunity to chop off her head.
Standing outside the Moon Gate, Chu Qiao could still hear Chong Ximo's explaining voice.
"Princess Ningxue sent someone to deliver cakes, but this slave just came and delivered them to the wrong place."
This explanation was quite reasonable. It seemed that the emperor didn't ask more questions. Instead of walking out of the Moon Gate, they turned around and Chong Ximo followed the emperor and left.
This time it was really dangerous. Chu Qiao took a breath, carried the pastry plate, and followed what Chong Ximo said just now. When she went out, she turned right at an intersection, walked straight for a while, and finally figured out the direction.
Do we really need to send the cakes to the Imperial Hospital? Chong Ximo has made it very clear just now, asking her to go back quickly and not to cause trouble. It seems that this plate of cakes really belongs to her.
When Chu Qiao returned to the imperial dining room, it was getting dark.
At the gate of the imperial dining room, little Eunuch Li was furious with several eunuchs for some unknown reason. The big guys were among them, with their heads hanging down one by one. This was not the first time that the supervisor of the miscellaneous room found someone to vent his anger on when he was unhappy.
Once, Chu Qiao is used to it.
Lowering his head and walking past them, Little Eunuch Li glanced at Chu Qiao displeasedly. Unfortunately, now that Chu Qiao had entered the dining room, it was no longer within his jurisdiction. He could only roll his eyes.
.
The big man kept glancing at Chu Qiao, as if he had something to say, but because Little Eunuch Li was in front of him, he did not dare to go up and talk to Chu Qiao.
Chu Qiao returned to her residence and closed the door. Lianyun came out with wide eyes.
"I heard that you went out with Princess Xuening in the afternoon?"
Being able to work as a waiter for Princess Xuening for half a day is a good thing for a kitchen servant in the imperial kitchen. Otherwise, he may become the princess's servant.
Chu Qiao just smiled.
"I helped carry the pastries. No, I brought the rest back." Chu Qiao felt that after such a day, her arms were sore and her legs were so tired that she had no strength.
Lianyun took a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, then came up and asked.
"What did the princess tell you?"
"Are you so curious about this? I will ask you to deliver meals to the hospital tomorrow." Chu Qiao said angrily.
Lianyun chuckled, picked up the cake and started eating again.
"I thought you would follow the princess from now on? That's why I want to know what the princess told you? Why are you so angry?"
"Forget it, let me tell you, the princess told me..."
Chu Qiao deliberately lengthened her voice, and Lian Yun also pricked up his ears and listened, without even taking a breath.
"Princess He said, if you don't serve this pastry, then... like this!"
Chu Qiao deliberately made a gesture on Lianyun's neck. Lianyun slowly raised his eyes and looked at Chu Qiao in disbelief.
"She said that to you?"
"What do you think? I am a little cook, and she will take care of me. Do you think that all the maids around the princess are dead? Okay, you have asked what you should ask, I am going to bed."
The walk from Taiyuan Hospital to Yuehan Lake and back again was longer than the distance Chu Qiao walked after entering the palace combined. How could she not be tired?
But just when she was about to lie down and rest, there was a knock on the door. When Lianyun went to open the door, she saw the little eunuch carrying water in the utility room.
When the little man saw that it was Lianyun who opened the door, he immediately smiled and whispered.
"Eunuch Ping asked Chunxiang to come over."
"Eunuch Ping calls you Sister Chunxiang?"
Lianyun glanced at the sky and asked again: "It's almost dark today. What did Eunuch Ping ask Li Chunxiang to do?"
"Eunuch Ping didn't say anything. I happened to be passing by, so he asked me to call him." The little man squinted his eyes and waited at the door.
When Chu Qiao heard that it was Eunuch Ping calling her, she didn't dare to neglect it. She thought to herself, if Eunuch Ping called her at this time, could it be that Princess Xuening had caused some trouble for her? If that was the case, it would be terrible.
There were only a few pastries left on the plate, and most of them were eaten by her and Lianyun. How could I explain that?
Chu Qiao's face turned pale as she hurriedly ran out of the inner room.
"I, I'll come right away."
Chu Qiao wore a thicker piece of clothing to prevent herself from being spanked a few more times.
Lianyun saw Chu Qiao come out in a panic with an ugly face. She knew that it would be no good for Eunuch Ping to call Chu Qiao so late. She deliberately rubbed her eyes and said she was sleepy, then turned around and climbed onto the bed, covered herself with a quilt and fell asleep.
Those words about sharing the joys and sorrows with Chu Qiao are not mentioned now.
