The Eighth Wise King became addicted to eavesdropping on the silly princess' thoughts
Chapter 43 The Fragrant Ox Tail
Luo Li returned to the palace and went straight to Ning Xinyuan. After entering, she gave an order to Tingting who was waiting at the door!
"Hurry up and stew the ox tail for your young lady, and stew the ox bones in a big iron pot. Let everyone in this courtyard have enough to eat!"
Tingting responded with a cheerful smile and went straight to the small kitchen.
Tingting first cleaned the ox tail and stewed it for the young lady in a small pot.
He also asked two servants to fetch a large iron pot from the palace's kitchen, set up a stove in the yard, and stewed a large pot full of beef bones.
As Chunmei entered Ningxinyuan, she smelled a strong aroma of meat.
Seeing a large iron pot in the yard with steam rising from it, he curiously asked the two servants who were guarding the pot and adding fuel to the fire, "Lai Fu Lai Wang, what are you doing?"
Lai Fu and Lai Wang saw that the person asking the question was Chunmei, the maidservant beside Mrs. Lin, and they quickly stood up and answered.
"Miss Chunmei! These are the beef bones that the princess bought from outside. They were stewed for us to eat. There is a lot of meat on the bones. Come and try some later."
Chunmei secretly swallowed her saliva. The beef tasted so delicious!
However, being with the Madam, she had eaten all kinds of delicious food, so why would she be greedy for these broken beef bones and meat?
"No! Madam sent me here to talk to the princess."
Yingxue just came out of the small kitchen and saw her. "Sister Chunmei, are you here to see the princess? I'll go in and report to her for you."
Chunmei saw that this little girl who used to be timid in front of her now treated her as an equal and she no longer had any respect for her.
He was quite unhappy in his heart, "Humph! After climbing onto the high branch of the silly princess, can you still fly up to the branch and become a phoenix?"
Chunmei said calmly, "Then I'll trouble you."
Luo Li was lazily leaning on the chaise longue, while Ruhua and Siyu were massaging her shoulders and legs to drive away the day's fatigue.
After hearing Yingxue's report, Luo Li looked up at Yingchun beside her and raised her eyebrows, "I guess it was Madam Lin who sent her to ask for dragon-birth incense and camphor incense. Do you believe it?"
Yingchun burst out laughing!
The dozen or so boxes of borneol incense in the palace's storehouse have all been moved into the princess's private storehouse. How could the two people who are used to using spices resist asking for them?
It depends on whether the princess is willing to give it to them. Given her generous and magnanimous character, she should give them two boxes, right? But the princess must not be foolish and give them too much.
Chunmei was led into the house by Yingxue, and bowed to the princess who was lazily leaning on the chaise longue, "Your servant Chunmei greets the princess."
Luo Li squinted her eyes and comfortably enjoyed the massage of Ruhua and Siyu. She asked in a lazy voice, "What do you want to see me for?"
This silly princess doesn't know how to stand or sit properly. She is not even as good as the elegant and noble Miss Xian'er.
Chunmei felt contempt in her heart, but she didn't dare show any surprise on her face.
"Reporting to the princess! The madam and the young lady have run out of spices in their rooms. Send a servant to ask the princess for a few boxes of dragon's birthday incense and camphor."
The lady only asked her to ask for two boxes, but she insisted on asking for a few boxes to see how much this silly princess would give her.
Luo Li didn't even raise her eyelids, her voice was still lazy as if she was about to fall asleep: "No."
Yingchun was immediately delighted!
Chunmei was shocked and had an expression of disbelief on her face!
"Princess! You are too unreasonable. You took more than ten boxes of dragon's horn incense from the palace storehouse to your private storehouse. My wife and daughter asked for a few boxes, but you refused to give them even one. Did you use all those spices?"
Luo Li pushed Ruhua and Siyu away and sat up straight.
"How dare you, a slave, accuse me of being unreasonable? Yingchun, slap me in the face!"
Yingchun was shocked!
He gritted his teeth, walked up to Chunmei, swung his arms and slapped her twice!
The moment the slap landed on Chunmei's face, Yingchun felt excited!
This person who used to be so high and mighty, and who had scolded and slapped these little maids countless times, was finally slapped in the face by me, Yingchun!
Chunmei was stunned by two slaps in the face!
Thinking of the other party's noble status as a princess, she was so scared that she immediately knelt on the ground and cried and begged for mercy.
"Princess, spare my life! I will never dare to do it again!..."
Luo Li was delighted!
[In this era of strict hierarchy, it is really good to have a noble status! It feels so good to bully others by taking advantage of your power! ]
Luo Li said coldly, "I am the princess of the Prince Qin's Palace. I can use as much as I want from the storehouse in the palace.
If you want to ask for something from this princess, that depends on my mood and whether I am willing to give it to you.
roll!……"
Chunmei hurriedly got up, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin just walked in.
Chunmei bowed to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin with a look of grievance.
:: "Your Majesty! The dragon's birthday incense and camphor incense in the madam and the young lady's room have all been used up. I sent a servant to ask the princess for two boxes, but the princess... the princess refused to give any."
Qin Wang Zhao Defang smiled faintly, "Aren't there a lot of frankincense in the warehouse? Go find Butler Zhao and get a few boxes of frankincense.
Princess! Is the oxtail stewed? I am a little hungry. "
Chunmei was stunned!
[Frankincense? Isn't frankincense used by servants like us? The prince asked the lady and Miss Xian'er to use frankincense? ]
Chunmei wiped away her tears in grievance, but did not dare to say anything else. She bowed and turned away.
Chunmei ran to the yard and called out enthusiastically to Lai Fu, who was stirring the big pot filled with the aroma of meat!
"Miss Chunmei, the beef bones will be ready soon, wait and have a piece!"
Chunmei didn't respond and ran out with her head down.
Lai Fu curiously asked Lai Wang who was lighting the fire, "What happened to Miss Chunmei?"
Lai Wang replied without even raising his head, "How should I know?"...
The King of Qin was chewing a piece of ox tail bone with rich sauce flavor with gusto, wondering secretly: I have eaten this ox tail several times in the military camp, how come Tingting can cook it so deliciously?
Luo Li's mouth was full of gravy, thinking: [Since you didn't ask for a box of dragon bones and camphor incense that you gave me for your aunt and Bai Yueguang, you can eat as much of this pot of ox tail as you want today, and I won't let Tingting add the dish of spicy pork intestines.]...
Chunmei ran into the Qiongfang Pavilion crying, and fell to her knees with a thump after entering!
"Madam, Miss, I was ordered to ask that silly princess for two boxes of dragon's birth incense and camphor incense. Not only did she refuse to give me any, she also let Yingchun, that damned girl, slap me twice.
She wasn’t hitting the servants, she was hitting the Madam and the Young Lady in the face! Woo woo…”
Mrs. Lin slammed the table angrily!
"This mentally ill idiot! How dare he be so overbearing and arrogant and bully me?
Chunmei, while the fingerprints on your face are still there, go to Chunfengju and file a complaint with the prince!"
"The prince... the prince happened to catch up with him at Ningxin Garden. I have already complained, but the prince... the prince asked me to find housekeeper Zhao and ask for some frankincense for the lady and the young lady."
Mrs. Lin was stunned!
Lin Xian'er was also stunned for a moment!
Is my cousin so heartless to us mother and daughter for that fool?
Lin Xian'er felt a burst of painful sadness in her heart! This uncomfortable feeling made her burst into tears instantly, and her heart felt like it was being kicked hard!
……
King Qin Zhao Defang enjoyed a delicious oxtail meal in Ningxin Garden and sipped two cups of tea leisurely while sitting at the table.
"King Qin, you have eaten and drunk enough, it's time to go back to your Chunfeng Residence, right? I've been tired all day, I need to take a bath and rest early."
Looking at the King of Qin who was sitting still, Luo Li started to chase the guest away.
The King of Qin put down the teacup in his hand and said, "You just called yourself my princess, why are you my young lady now?"
Luo Li said shamelessly: "When the title of Princess Qin is useful, I will use it temporarily. When it is not needed, I will throw it into the cesspool."
"You are really stupid and cunning!" The King of Qin said, then stood up and walked out with a smile on his face.
King Qin walked out of the house and saw that the courtyard of Ningxinyuan was brightly lit.
A group of servants and maids gathered around the big iron pot in the yard, which was filled with the aroma of meat. They ate heartily and laughed in low voices!
Even a few guards from the palace gathered there and were enjoying the meal!
Seeing the prince coming out of the house, everyone was so scared that they quickly dropped the big bones in their hands and bowed to the ground in panic!
The King of Qin smiled and waved his hand, "Keep eating! Don't waste such delicious beef bones and meat."
After returning to Chunfengju, King Qin sat at the desk and picked up a book, but he felt an itchy sensation in his heart, as if it were a cat's paw.
: [The princess should be taking a bath, right? What is this idiot saying behind her back? Let’s go and listen.]
"Yun Yi! Have someone guard the door and windows. No one is allowed to approach without my order!"
Yun Yi clasped his fists and bowed, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will guard it myself."
The King of Qin walked into the inner room, pressed the mechanism on the carved wood carvings on the wall, and went to Ningxin Garden through the tunnel.
The King of Qin stood at the end of the tunnel and waited for a long time before hearing the voice of the princess: "I'm so sleepy, take a bath and go to bed."
The King of Qin's heart was beating fast!
[Would you like to take a sneak peek later? I don't want to see anything else, I just want to see how big those big feet are? ]
"Ruhua, Yingchun, the two of you stay by the bathtub. Honggu, you stay by the east wall.
When I took a shower these past two days, I always had a creepy feeling as if I was being spied on by a thief. I remembered that there should be a tunnel in this room leading to the outside of the palace.
I just came in and searched for a long time. The inner diameter of this room does not match the outer wall. The tunnel exit should be inside the east wall. But I can't find the switch for the tunnel exit."
The King of Qin was shocked when he heard this! [This alert, observant, and thoughtful person is his silly princess? ]
"Miss, you said the exit of this tunnel is inside the wall?" Hong Gu asked curiously.
: "Yes! It should be inside the east wall behind you. If you don't believe me, knock on it. The north half of the east wall is a hollow wall."
Hong Gu turned around and started tapping with the back of her hand.
The King of Qin felt nervous!
[If the King of Qin was caught peeping at the Princess bathing, how could that be? Wouldn't this brain-dead guy be furious?
...What are you afraid of? If they find out the trap, it won't be too late to sneak away. 】
Hong Gu knocked on the wall a few times and said, "It's really inside this wall. This part of the wall makes a hollow sound when I knock on it."
"I'm going to take a shower first! Hong Gu, you stay there and look for the mechanism. Don't let anyone know about this. If we can find the mechanism, we'll have another way to escape in the future."
Hong Gu knocked here and pressed there, and tried to turn any round object, but found nothing after searching for a long time.
"Miss, this tunnel is so cleverly designed that it's impossible to find it!"
The King of Qin was very proud!
[The mechanism at the exit of this tunnel was designed and manufactured by the leader of the Luban Sect himself. Is it so easy to find? ]
Luo Li soaked in the water, feeling soft all over.
"If we can't find it today, we can look for it slowly. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to run away. The mechanism is in this room. We will find it sooner or later."
Yingchun was startled when she heard this!
:"princess!"
Luo Li looked up at her and said righteously, "Yingchun, don't be afraid! When we really want to escape, I will definitely take you with me.
If Banxia, Wanqiu and Yingxue are willing to follow me, I will take them with me as well."
Yingchun's voice trembled with excitement: "Thank you, Princess! I want to follow you anytime!"
King Qin snorted in his heart!
[Has the maidservant in the Qin Palace been bribed by the princess and become completely devoted to her in just a few days? ]
Luo Li laughed happily, "Yingchun, let's not talk about anything else, I am the most protective person!
As long as you follow me, I can bully you for fun, but I will never let you suffer any loss outside!"
Ruhua smiled and said, "The young lady will not bully us! The young lady only bullies outsiders, and will only protect and love her own people."
