Transmigrating into a female supporting role in a book
Chapter 2: Offended
As soon as the maid went out to do her work, I followed out of the yard, saying that I was just going to take a walk. Immediately, two maids followed me.
I glanced at it, said nothing, and continued walking forward with big strides.
After a while, I had unknowingly reached the palace's garden and had also shaken off the maid who was following me.
I have to say that the Zhenbei Palace is really wealthy. In a place like the capital where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, they can have such a large garden. It's a pity that I have no chance to own this family business.
If I want to escape from the palace, I'm afraid I can't use Shen Xingye's identity, so it's not easy to directly embezzle the dowry I brought from the Duke's Mansion.
A soul traveler like me, who firstly has no super powers, and secondly has no cutting-edge technology to rely on, if I don't rely on the economic foundation of the original owner, if I really leave the palace, I'm afraid even eating will be a problem.
He sighed heavily. It seems that he can only exercise more and keep his body in good shape before thinking of a solution!
After all, the body is the capital of revolution.
I looked around and saw that there was no one else around, so I started doing yoga on the spot.
After a set of movements, the meridians are stretched and the person does not feel very tired. It is suitable for the current condition of the body and can be used as an entry-level training method to start with.
In early summer, all kinds of flowers bloomed in the garden, which was a beautiful sight, but I was not in the mood to appreciate the flowers. I just wandered around and breathed some fresh air.
As I was walking with my head down, I saw a loose stone on the edge of the trail. Without thinking much, I instinctively raised my toes and kicked it away.
But as the stone flew out, a muffled groan was heard from not far away on the opposite side.
It’s over, the stone flew out and hit someone!
I quickly took a few steps forward and saw the other person squatting on the spot, pressing the place on his leg where he was hit, looking like he was in pain.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see anyone in front of me. It really wasn't intentional. Are you okay?" I apologized sincerely.
The other person stood up and glared at me with a dark face, "You didn't mean it?"
Shit! It was Situ Jue! Why was he wandering around here alone? I quickly glanced around to make sure there were no other servants.
Very good, there is no witness, I will slip away first.
Situ Jue's voice exploded behind me, "Shen Xingye! Stop right there!"
Hearing his anger, I thought I would be a fool to stand there and wait to be scolded, so I started running, even faster.
When I was halfway there, I met two maids who had caught up with me. After they lost me, they searched everywhere for a long time.
In order to prevent Situ Jue from catching up from behind, I asked two maids to run with me.
"Princess... where are you going? We can't run anymore..." the maid Dujuan said breathlessly.
"I can't go back to Suxin Pavilion now. It will be troublesome if he comes to our door." I muttered to myself, then turned around and asked, "Is there any place in this palace that no one usually goes to?"
The maid Xueyan immediately pointed to the west and said, "I heard that behind the bamboo forest in the west is a courtyard specially built by the prince to raise some birds and animals for entertainment. Because the smell is quite strong, not many people usually go there."
"Okay! Let's go over there! Follow me."
The three of us, master and servant, walked through the bamboo forest and came to an unfamiliar courtyard, a place that the original owner had never been to.
The plaque on the gate reads "A House of Beasts". Before entering the door, I could smell a mixture of feces and grass. Both maids covered their noses at the same time, but I felt a little nostalgic. When I was in school, I volunteered at a stray animal rescue station. Every time I cleaned, the smell was much stronger than this.
When I pushed the door open and walked in, I could hear all kinds of birds chirping and animals talking, just like a zoo. I saw two green peacocks strolling leisurely on the lawn beside the rockery. As I was looking around carefully, a smartly dressed young man came up to me.
Although he looked a little surprised, he still bowed respectfully and said, "I didn't know the princess was coming. Please forgive me for not welcoming you."
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm just looking around. You don't have to say hello." I waved my hand and continued walking forward.
But he still followed behind, with no intention of leaving.
In addition to some bird cages hanging under the porch, there are also some pheasants with bright feathers roaming around in the yard. It seems that this area is mainly used to raise poultry. Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a strange voice, "Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"
On the bird stand under the right corridor, a parrot with blue-green wings was nodding at me.
This parrot is quite big. Even though I know nothing about birds, I can tell that it is definitely a unusual species.
The person following behind explained in a flattering manner, "Princess, this is the prince's new toy. He has asked me to take good care of it for more than a month. It is very well behaved and has learned a lot of human language."
"Really?" I took two steps closer and tried to communicate with the parrot, "What's your name?"
The parrot moved its claws on the pole, as if it didn't want to pay attention to me. It tilted its head and began to preen its feathers.
"The prince named her Xiaomei."
Xiaomei? Sumei? They have been married for so long, but he still misses her. This man is really interesting. I sneered and continued walking along the corridor.
There is a corridor in front, and it seems that there is something inside.
The man hurried forward two steps and stopped me in front of me. "Princess, please stay. There is a small courtyard ahead. There is a new beast in it. It doesn't understand human nature. I'm afraid it will get angry when it sees strangers."
This zoo actually has a section on wild animals? I immediately put aside my previous displeasure and said, "Then I'll just take a look from a distance."
"This...if the princess is injured, I really can't bear it. Otherwise, princess, please wait a moment. I will report to the prince and then..."
I remembered the scene in the garden just now when I accidentally kicked a stone and hit Situ Jue. If I go to report it now, wouldn’t I be walking into a trap?
"No rush. What kind of ferocious beast is in there?" I asked.
"It was just shipped in from outside the Great Wall a few days ago. It was usually taken care of by Jia Liu, and I didn't see it with my own eyes." He explained with a wry smile.
"Where are the six Jias?"
"At this time... he should be..." The man looked embarrassed and didn't finish his words.
While I was talking to him, I had already walked a few steps to the end of the corridor. Looking at the iron chain and copper padlock on the courtyard gate, I became even more curious.
"Princess, please stay! You see, even a small person like me can't enter this place. Why don't you look somewhere else? There is a stable at the east end..." The other party tried his best to lead me somewhere else.
"Who is making so much noise here?" A voice coming from the side made me look sideways.
The person who spoke was a sturdy man in shorts, with muscles showing through the fabric that looked too ostentatious. Before he even got close, a strong smell of alcohol wafted over.
I couldn't help but frown, trying hard to suppress the urge to cover my nose.
"Jia Liu! You came at the right time. The princess wants to see the beast inside. Look..."
"Greetings, Princess. The prince has said that no one is allowed to enter this place without his order!" As he said this, he brought the wine gourd in his hand to his mouth and took a sip. It seemed that he had been drinking before, so he smelled of alcohol.
The maid Du Juan gently reminded, "Princess, why don't we go back first? There's nothing to see in this place."
"This is definitely not a place for women." Jia Liu seemed to chuckle.
This sentence immediately ignited my temper. I took two steps forward and slapped the door lock, "Open it for me. I have to see what kind of beast it is today!"
The people around me were shocked by my attitude and fell silent for a moment. Then Jia Liu took out the key, walked forward and actually opened the door.
As I was about to step in, he added, "That beast eats people."
The sound was not loud, but it frightened my two maids, "Princess... let's not watch it..."
"You guys wait at the door, I'll go in and take a look and come out soon." As I said this, I had already stepped into the yard.
