515. Chapter 515 Going to the palace to hire someone
Get up in the morning.
Even at the foot of the mountain, the air is still very fresh.
The hunter couple had already gotten up. When Liuli came out, only the woman was cooking. When he saw her, he smiled honestly, "Are you up?"
"Where is your husband?" Liuli asked.
"What are you talking about about my husband-in-law? He went hunting in the mountains and won't come back until evening!" She said, "It's not convenient for you two ladies to travel. Why don't you wait until tomorrow and let my husband-in-law take you to Beijing?"
"No need, we can leave on our own!" Concubine Yun walked out of it.
"Madam." Liuli called out, but unexpectedly she got up too.
The hunter's wife rubbed her hands and said, "Look, you are leaving right now. Then when my husband-in-law comes back, how can I tell him that I might as well stay here for one more day? I see that this sister's legs and feet are not very good.
Aren’t you injured? It’s good to rest!”
Liuli was thinking about it, too. It was a bit too hasty to travel, and it wouldn't be good to go back hastily because she still didn't know what was going on in the palace.
"It's really not necessary. We don't have much money with us now. When we go back and find our family, we will definitely ask someone to send us a big thank you!" said Concubine Yun, then looked at Liuli, "We have disturbed them all day, so let's go!
"
"There's no need to thank you, but if you leave in such a hurry, my husband-in-law will think that I didn't take good care of you. You..." She kept talking, and Liuli felt that something was wrong.
She looked at Mrs. Yun and then at the woman, "Sister-in-law, we are really anxious to go home. It rained all night yesterday and we didn't go back. We are in such a hurry. I will definitely thank you when we get back!"
"You guys, don't leave..." Seeing that they insisted on leaving and could not stay, the woman suddenly blocked the door with a quick step.
Concubine Yun's expression changed instantly, "What are you going to do?"
Liuli also blocked Mrs. Yun behind her, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
Unexpectedly, she knelt down with a plop, then kowtowed and said, "Don't hide it, you two. You are the nobles in the palace, right? I know that you two must have been kidnapped by bandits a few days ago.
My noble lords, don't worry. I mean no harm to you. It's just that we are used to living a poor life here. It's rare to have such an opportunity now. My husband-in-law has gone to the palace to report the news early in the morning. When someone from the palace comes to pick you two up, we will
You can also get some reward money, right? It's not easy for you two to leave. Wouldn't it be better to wait for someone from the palace to pick you up?"
Speaking of which, she really didn't have any ill intentions, she just wanted to get some reward money.
People outside naturally don't know what happened between the old emperor and the new emperor. They think that they are concubines in the palace, so they are all nobles. Now that they have met, it is luck. There is no reason to let it go easily.
Concubine Yun's expression changed. This was not a good thing. The palace didn't know how the situation had changed. Now that Jun Yuqing is in power, how will he treat them? They were the people he arrested originally, but now... what does this mean?
"How did you know that we are from the palace?" Liuli asked calmly. First, he wanted to find out whether what she said was true or if she was just a spy to keep them safe.
"This road is not on the main road, and very few people pass by it. The two of them talked well and said that they were in trouble. A few days ago, I heard that bandits on this mountain hijacked the nobles in the palace and looted this place.
Mountain temple, that’s why I thought that the two nobles were probably kidnapped. I don’t know how they escaped, but since they met, it’s a blessing for the common people, isn’t it?”
Looking at her carefully, it didn't seem like she was lying. Liuli paused and asked, "How long has your husband-in-law been here?"
"We went early in the morning, and I think we should be back soon!" She thought they were relieved, so she stood up happily, "Don't be afraid, you two, we don't mean any harm. You can sit down first, and I'll meet you later."
Just come back!"
Looking at each other, Liuli frowned slightly. No matter what, he couldn't stay here for a long time, so he had to leave!
