Chapter 238 The Tenth Task: The Unlucky Traveling Woman (36)

The lotus is gorgeous.

The lotus leaves are as green as emeralds, shining brightly in the sun. In the octagonal gazebo beside the lotus pond, the Night King is playing chess with a man with outstanding temperament. This man is dressed in white and has black hair like Mo, wearing a purple gold crown on his head, looks even more dignified. Occasionally, a strand of hair hangs from his temples. Against his jade-like skin, it seems to be able to shine.

His facial features are exquisite, his eyebrows are picturesque, his lips are red and his teeth are white. He sits on the stone bench with an upright posture, his back is straight, as if he will not bend for anyone or anything, and his hands are like green onions, placed on the sunspot, like a beautiful picture scroll.

He is the Jade King who was once famous all over the world, Helian Xiyu.

The relationship between King Ye and King Jade has been very good since childhood, so as long as the two of them are in the capital, they will meet once every two or three days.No, tonight the King invited Jade King to have a drink.

However, before drinking, you have to see whose chess skills have improved.

"I heard from the servants in your mansion that you took a woman in?" Yu Wang put the sunspots on the chessboard, and then smiled faintly.

"Who is chewing the tongue in front of you?" The Night King glanced at him, then picked up a white piece and put it on the chessboard, "That's my benefactor's daughter, you should also know what happened three years ago, it was her My father saved me, but who knows that her family has been destroyed recently, and she is the only one left alive, so I can't just sit idly by."

"I see." Yu Wang raised his eyebrows, "I thought you would break your promise to marry a wife first and then take a concubine."

"No, after the Qionglin meeting, I will recognize her as my righteous sister, and this will be considered as a kindness of her father for saving my life."

"It's good that you know it in your heart." The Jade King smiled, his peach blossom eyes gleamed with beautiful waves, and after a while, he asked again, "Did Huayue do anything during this period of time? The emperor asked you to investigate the case of the Taifu, you How's the investigation going?"

"Didn't Ziran find out that Huayue would want to destroy the auspiciousness of heaven in Peach Blossom Valley?" Ye Wang raised the corners of his lips, "Ziran has become more and more popular recently." He didn't mention the case of Taifu.

Ziran is the character of King Ran.

"I heard that he was reminded by a girl when he was looking for trouble with King Chen." King Yu said, "It's good luck for Ziran."

"Yes, but do you know who that girl is?" Hearing this, Ye Wang glanced at him with a half-smile.

"Who is it?" Jade King was curious.

"It's my benefactor's daughter, that is, my younger sister." Ye Wang said unhurriedly, Jade King was startled, and quickly realized "In this way, I am curious about this Miss Zhou. "

"I'll have her come over for dinner."

"Ziqing suits me very well." Jade King nodded with a smile.

Just when the two were talking happily, suddenly, a woman screamed in the distance, and the two frowned at the same time. Looking towards the source of the sound, they saw a woman in a green lotus dress. The servant girl was talking to Yan Ci, she looked a little excited, her face was flushed.

"Isn't this your maid, Luliu?" Seeing this, King Jade frowned.

Her voice was extremely shrill.

"I guess something happened." The Night King got up and threw the chess piece on the table, "Zi Yuan can follow me to have a look."

"it is good."

The two walked towards the gazebo together, towards the green willow.

"what happened?"

When he reached the end of the path, the Night King asked.

The moment she saw King Ye, Lu Liu's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, but she bit her lower lip and looked at Yan Ci, who turned her head and said respectfully to King Ye and King Jade Li, and then said, "Lu Liu came and said that there was something important to report to the prince, and she kept saying that the matter was very important, but when I asked her what was the matter, she refused to say anything."

"That's it." Ye Wang raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Luliu, "Speaking of which, what do you want to report?"

"Your Majesty, please ask Master Yan Ci to step aside. This matter is related to Miss Zhou's name..." Before she could finish her words, she subconsciously covered her mouth. "Anyway, it is related to Miss Zhou."

Hearing this, the Night King understood, he looked at Yan Ci, and Yan Ci retreated instantly.

"Can we talk now?" After Yan Ci left, the Night King asked.

"I also ask His Royal Highness Jade King to keep Miss Zhou a secret." Seeing this, Lu Liu looked at Jade King again, with an extremely embarrassed expression.

"This king is not a talkative person." Jade King promised.

"Okay, then the slave will tell." Lu Liu took a deep breath, "The matter started three days ago. After the slave recovered from her injury three days ago, she returned to serve the girl. The girl is also very kind. The slave did a good job. She is still willing to trust the servant girl for being so sorry for her, but... But just yesterday, the girl accidentally separated from the girl when she went out with the servant girl and Huae. When the servant girl went to find the girl, she saw the girl in a small alley , talking to a man, and, moreover, gave the man some banknotes, saying don't come to me again.

The servant felt strange, thinking that the girl was being blackmailed by someone, so she ran to ask the girl to report to the official, but the girl said that the servant was wrong..."

Speaking of this, Lu Liu bit her lower lip, "I didn't think too much about it at the time, but after the girl came back yesterday, she was restless and worried, which made the servant very worried. Today, the girl went to bed after lunch. , the slave girl returned to the room, the more she thought about it, the more worried she became, so she wanted to ask the girl to understand, but at this moment, I heard the sound coming from the girl's room..."

"What's coming?" The Night King's expression had completely darkened.

Seeing this, Lu Liu's heart jumped with joy, but her face was full of embarrassment, "There is the sound of a man and a woman talking..." At the end, her voice softened.

"My lord, go and have a look." Ye Wang squinted his eyes, and walked boldly towards the Peach Dance Courtyard. Jade King frowned slightly, and followed closely behind, while Lu Liu also followed quickly, with a beautiful face There was a happy look on his face, and resentment flashed in his eyes.

It's done, she succeeded, she succeeded in breaking down that bitch, from now on, the prince's attitude towards her will plummet!
three days ago -

The morning breeze was intoxicatingly warm, mixed with the sweet scent of flowers in the courtyard. Early in the morning, Luliu brought over breakfast, and at the same time, she also brought a pot of wine. When the wind calmed down, Then she smiled and said to her, "Girl, don't you want to drink? The servant brought you the old daughter's red. When the girl wants to drink, you can drink it at any time."

Seeing this, Feng Buyu was extremely moved and said, "Lu Liu, you really have a heart."

Lu Liu then smiled and said, "This is what a servant girl should do."

At this moment, Hua'e came in with a copper basin and asked Feng Silently to wash up. After washing up, the three of them had breakfast together, which was soon finished.

Luliu went to get breakfast, and Huae naturally had to clean up the dishes, the division of labor between the two was very clear, but today Luliu helped Huae clean up the dishes, Huae said no, the two of them were pushing each other, Accidentally broke the plate, Hua Calyx went to pick up the plate, but accidentally cut her hand.

"It's all the servant's fault." Seeing this, Lu Liu blamed herself, "The servant will call the government doctor to show Huae."

"I'm afraid it wouldn't be good to alert the doctor with such a small wound." Feng Buyu quickly stopped her, "Just go outside and buy two bottles of ointment."

"Your maidservant knows." Lu Liu nodded, and after receiving Feng Buyu's order, she quickly left the mansion and came to a medicine shop she frequented most. After buying the ointment, Lu Liu walked to an alley and took out the medicine. Veil, who had prepared in advance, rented a carriage and let the carriage drive to Qingliu Street. She got off the carriage at the intersection of the street, walked straight to an alley, and entered a house with a big locust tree planted in front of it. .

The owner of this room is the maid who used to work with her in the Yewang Mansion, because she made a mistake and was kicked out of the Yewang Mansion. In the end, she voluntarily fell into the brothel and was called Liniang.

At that time, she looked down on Liniang very much, but she thought about when she might be able to use Liniang, so she never broke contact with her. Now it seems that she really has the foresight.

She bought a package of Chunfengsan from Liniang, and asked her to help find a tall and handsome man. She promised to give her 1000 taels of Xie Yin after the task was completed, and Liniang agreed.

After leaving Liniang's house, there was nothing else to do, so Lu Liu went straight back to Ye Wang's mansion in a carriage.

It took Luliu nearly an hour to go back and forth, and she was very apprehensive, but when she went back, she found that Feng Buyu was not suspicious, so she was completely relieved.

On the second day, she suggested to Feng Buyu that the weather was fine and she could go out for a walk.

Feng Buyu naturally had no objection, and smiled at Luliu and Huae, "Then after we go out, I'll buy you two nice clothes."

"Thank you, miss." Lu Liu and Hua'e said in unison.
