After Ling'er's father came to the capital, he was also looking for someone, but the capital was too big, so he could find someone there. Every day, he walked through the streets to see if the passers-by were his daughter.

But the money was spent quickly, so he simply rented a small house in the capital, and it cost money to find someone to eat every day. Seeing the coolies by the river, Linger's father felt that his hands and feet were still flexible. , I just worked here, and I got three or four pennies a day, which is really too little.

At most, it is enough to feed for a day. If you buy two steamed buns and eat them, you can make it through the day.

Linger's father simply went to the suburbs to see if he could hunt some small animals, and then sold them here. Linger's father was a hunter in the first place, and he was good at catching wild rabbits, pheasants, and boars. Rabbit, three or four days of food will be available. Once he puts it on the street, some people from the family will come out to buy it. Some young masters like to eat rabbits, and their servants will come to buy it. Money is much better than coolies. Linger's father can support himself now, but not every day. Linger's father can barely survive by going fishing and selling fish.

Now Ling'er thinks about Xie Junyao every day. She has been here for almost half a month, and there is still no news from Xie Junyao. She asked the servants here, and they didn't know anything, although the food here is delicious. Sleep well, but now it's Chinese New Year, she remembered that Huayue and Xie Junyao tried to get married after the Chinese New Year, could they be married now, but if Xie Junyao came back, why didn't Xie Junyao come here? Think of it as Xie Junyao's house, which is big enough and luxurious. There are seven or eight servants cleaning up in the yard, and there are two cooks in the kitchen. Ling'er is living the life of a young lady.

Linger has become a little fatter since she came here for a month. If she eats well, she eats more. Linger was very thin before, but now she has gained at least [-] catties and looks chubby.

The maid serving Ling'er is called Ju Hua, and Ju Hua came here and brought her some pastries, "Girl, these pastries are on the table for you."

By the way, there are pastries to eat every day, and it is still uninterrupted. As long as the pastries here are finished, Chrysanthemum will come out of the kitchen for you. The pastry side, the yard here is very quiet, there are only two male servants, and the rest It's all girls.

The same goes for cooking in the kitchen. Ling'er walked over and couldn't help but take two pastries to eat. Ling'er likes to eat the pastry here the most. She thinks it is very delicious. She has never eaten it before. The pastry sold by the vendor is I really want to eat it. When I was a child, I always stayed where I was. Ling'er's father was tortured and had no choice but to buy her a piece of pastry, but she couldn't enjoy it at all.

Now I can enjoy eating, but obviously Xie Junyao's affairs are the most important. As long as she can be with Xie Junyao, she is equivalent to being a family member, and she can eat whatever she wants without thinking too much about it.

"Chrysanthemum, when will your master come back?"

When Huayue left before, she specifically explained to Chrysanthemum, not letting her reveal where it was, and also told her that if the girl asked about Xie Junyao, she would say that she didn't know.

Ling'er got the same answer, so she couldn't bear it. She wanted to find Xie Junyao.

Chrysanthemum stood aside, and Linger said, "I've been here for a few days, can I go for a walk?"

"I'm afraid this won't work," Chrysanthemum said, "it's better for Miss Ling'er to stay here, there are crowds outside and if something happens to the girl, it's our responsibility."

Although Chrysanthemum is a maid, Ling'er is just a guest, not her master, she is at most sent to serve, so she still has the right to speak on Ling'er's side.

Ling'er said, "I've been here for almost a month, and you won't let me go out, even to watch casual classes. I can just walk around the door."

She is very dissatisfied with this servant girl's behavior, why can't she go out? However, Ling'er still wanted to make a good impression with the people on Xie Junyao's side, so she said softly, "Well, you go out with me and come back in a while."

"Girl, this really won't work," Chrysanthemum said, "Girl, you can wait a little longer, our master will finish things soon."

Still perfunctory like this, Linger saw that she couldn't convince Chrysanthemum, so she waved her hands and said, "Okay, I won't go out, you can go to work, I don't need anyone to wait on my side."

Chrysanthemum said, "If the girl needs anything, just call us."

Chrysanthemum went out to do her own business, of course Ling'er was willing, every time she was perfunctory like this, she went out secretly, she reached the backyard, hurried over there when there was no one there, opened the door and went out secretly, she went outside, The location of the back door was relatively quiet. She walked out and there was a road paved with bricks. She walked along the road, and soon there were more people. She seemed to be on the street. He randomly found a vendor and asked, "Uncle, can I ask you, do you know Xie Junyao?"

The vendor waved his hand, "I don't know, get lost, don't disturb my business.

Ling'er didn't give up and asked several other people, but no one answered her, and there happened to be a scholar not far behind, so she said, "Are you looking for someone, I might know who you are talking about."

Ling'er hurried over and asked, "What do you know? Do you know who Xie Junyao is?"

The scholar said, "I knew there was only one person named Junyao Xie in this capital." He lowered his voice and said to Ling'er.

Ling'er could see that he seemed to know something, so she hurriedly asked, "What do you know?"

The scholar said, "If you want to know, then give me three pennies and I will tell you."

There is not much money, and Ling'er has saved some money. She may have been calculating before, but now it's about Xie Junyao, and she can't wait to know what's going on.

She touched her body, took out three Wen coins and gave it to the scholar.

The scholar lowered his voice and said, "Do you know what the surname of the housekeeper in our country is?"

Ling'er was confused for a while, and then said, "I heard from my father that the surname is Xie?"

"By the way, the surname you are looking for is Xie, and his name is Junyao. There is only one person, that is His Royal Highness Xie Junyao. What are you looking for His Royal Highness, maybe you know His Royal Highness?" The scholar said to himself "Yesterday His Royal Highness Prince Yong just got married, and now he must be inseparable from his wife, but what I have to mention is that His Royal Highness Prince Yong has a matter of restraining his wife."

"What restrains his wife?" Ling'er frowned and asked, "How could His Highness Prince Yong restrain his wife?"

Compared with the fact that Xie Junyao and Huayue were already married, Ling'er frowned when she heard about his wife's restraint. Maybe the two of them had a marriage contract long ago. She knew that she couldn't stop her, so she met a long time ago. Xie Junyao might marry After seeing Huayue, she had already made preparations in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when she heard it, but the suppression of wives was a new thing, and she wanted to know how the title of suppression of wives came about.

The scholar waved his hand "two articles"

Ling'er was eager to know, so she gave him two articles, and the scholar continued, "His Royal Highness Yong married several wives before, and all of them died within a year. I don't know the reason, but they all disappeared anyway. I don’t know if Miss Hua’s family can survive a year now.”

Ling'er asked, "Is there any other reason?"

The scholar said, "What could be the reason? Think about several of them. If one is still an accident, if there are several, it is still an accident. No one thinks it is impossible. It must be because of Xie Junyao's death of his wife."

Ling'er didn't stop, even if Xie Junyao had killed his wife, Ling'er was already with Xie Junyao, but Xie Junyao was married to his wife, if she wasn't Xie Junyao's wife, but just his concubine, then she wouldn't have anything to do with her After all, she is a concubine and not a regular wife, even if she can't restrain her, Linger thinks this way, thinking in her heart, Huayue is married to Xie Junyao now, let's see when she is restrained.

It is undeniable that Ling'er was still a little scared when she heard the word Ke wife. She was afraid of death. Halfway through the walk, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. Come here, that is, in the courtyard where she is. Now that I think about it, that woman is obviously trying to keep her away. Maybe it is not in Xie Junyao's house at all, but to separate Ling'er and Xie Junyao so that they can get married. .

Thinking about it now, Ling'er couldn't bear it at all, maybe Xie Junyao didn't know at all, that woman arranged her in another place, she had to ask carefully, but she didn't know the way to the palace at all, so she went back The scholar gave him ten pennies and said, "Can you draw? Draw me the road from here to the palace. The ten penny is you."

The scholar came here to set up a stall. He took the task and started to draw. He drew the map very quickly, and he didn't forget to explain it to Ling'er.

After Ling'er understood it, she walked along the road according to the map. The scholar drew the map very well, and she could see it clearly. Where Xie Junyao was, she looked at the majestic and wealthy gate, but she still dared not go there. What if His Royal Highness Yongwang in the palace is not Xie Junyao, or has the same name, but if the surname can be Xie, then only Yongwang is there.

She mustered up her courage and walked over to the door, and the gatekeeper immediately stopped her, "The royal palace is an important place, and idlers are not allowed to enter."

Ling'er was frightened by the two vicious gatekeepers, she said, "I'm here to find someone, I'm the princess of your house, I'm her sister"

"Go, if the sister of the princess will definitely send a greeting card, you have nothing and want to pretend to be the sister of the princess, get out of here, or the police will arrest you." The two guards looked at Ling'er, but they didn't look at her. See something outstanding,
The clothes on his body are also ordinary, not at all the clothes worn by the young lady in the noble family.

Ling'er wanted to break in and said, "I am really your princess' sister. If you tell your princess that I am Ling'er, your princess will know who I am."

"Go away, go away"

The two guards regarded her as a disturbance and drove her out.

Ling'er couldn't get in, and waited outside for a long time, but she didn't wait for the people inside to come out. Seeing that it was getting dark, Ling'er had to go back first.
