When Emperor Wu dressed as Darcy's sister
Chapter 77
The warm orange winter sun hangs low on the tops of the sycamore trees near the Haisen mansion. The soft and warm light reflects the whole mansion as if soaked in rich salted duck egg yolk. It must be from Gaoyou.
"Have you inquired? Is there any insider in Xiriels?" On the sunny and most suitable balcony of the entire mansion, Wu Zhao asked the young lady who just came back from the outside, while watching the garden outside the window. The busy servants came out on rare warm days.
She was nestling in a large rocking chair on the balcony, and she still had the scented tea that Sara had just taken out this afternoon. It had been cellared for a whole year, and the original tea leaves were soaked in a strong scent of roses, making her very comfortable. .
On the contrary, the young lady who was standing not far away seemed to have just rushed back from somewhere, with a trace of water on her hair, she replied respectfully: "Yesterday, I found out from an old friend of Mrs. Molly's. Miss Lisa's biological mother was met by the lady on the way back when she was visiting a friend who was in labor outside of London. Seeing that the woman was about to give birth, and adding that she was begging to have no children, she felt pity for her— —just by accident, so no one knows what her last name is, but it is said that she was a very mean-looking woman, younger than the lady."
"There were two maids who went with me at the time. They were fired during the financial crisis of the Lord's Mansion. Now they are living in the slums. I have asked someone to find their whereabouts. They said that it has been too long and I can't remember clearly, even if Even if we meet face to face, we may not be able to recognize him, but I remember that person has a southern accent."
"Also, on this place on her chest," Qing Niang pointed to the center of her chest, and gestured, "there is a red mole. It was seen by one of the maids by chance when she was delivering the baby—there is nothing else .”
Wu Zhao nodded, "It's been a long time, and it's not easy to find any traces. You are very lucky to find these."
Sara was coming over to change the water. Hearing this, she smiled and said, "Then I'll send a letter back to ask them to look at the red mole on a pair of Sirels? It won't take long before they know."
"Okay, let someone go." Wu Zhao thought for a while and agreed, "By the way, it's time to beat Lydia. I've been so busy these days that I didn't pay attention to her—what is she doing?" gone?"
Sara was taken aback, for some reason Wu Zhao suddenly mentioned Lydia. Fortunately, she kept an eye on this restless girl, not to mention knowing her well, but she still knew the general whereabouts of Lydia every day.
She quickly replied: "Let her follow the maids outside to do some chores every day, nothing more than cleaning and tidying up - but after a few days, I think she is almost at the end of her patience. She couldn't get out of bed this morning. Missed breakfast and complained horribly."
Wu Zhao smiled unsurprisingly, which was exactly her purpose, to grind Lydia down on purpose, "And then? Have you had breakfast?"
"How is it possible!" Sara shook her head, "It's already past the time for breakfast, and the servants below only hate that there is not enough food.
, Some people didn't come, so many people are willing to eat more.When Lydia passed by, she complained that there was no breakfast, and was mocked loudly by Lazera in the kitchen, saying that she considered herself a lady and could eat whenever she wanted?It was Mrs. Reynolds' kindness that I got up late and didn't get scolded. "
"Lydia is no match for Lazera." Wu Zhao smiled and shook his head, "That's a sharp-tongued guy."
Lazera was also the cook that Mrs. Reynolds had brought from Pemberley Manor, and she was the most authentic of these cooks.She was a widow when she was young, and she gritted her teeth and brought up three children by herself. Anyone with a weak temper would not be able to survive.
No matter how loud Lydia could be, she was just an innocent little girl spoiled by her family, and she had no chance of winning against Lazera.
"You have someone take her back to Pemberley Manor." Wu Zhao thought for a while, and decided to send Lydia away in advance, "I will probably go back after Christmas, and it's only a few days away. The situation is unstable now, London is not Knowing how many spies there are, Lydia will only add to the chaos here, and maybe she will be used by those who want to."
Sara thought the same thing, Lydia has such a temper, she can't do much to help her, and it's really not worthwhile to ask a good person to watch her, "You mean, I'll ask someone to take her back."
"More than that, you don't need to let her go to Pemberley Manor if you take her back." Wu Zhao lowered his head and picked up the warm rose tea, and said calmly, "You go back in person and send her to the farmer whose hand was chopped off because of theft. The family—I remember such a family?"
Wu Zhao looked up at Qing Niang. She was the most familiar with the situation on these farms, and Wu Zhao only heard Qing Niang mention it by chance.
Qing Niang nodded and replied: "There is such a family whose left hand was cut off by the ruthless master for stealing wheat seeds, and her man died of alcohol poisoning last year because of gambling and drinking. Now only she and the two are left. There are two children, the oldest is only three years old, and the youngest is less than one year old."
"That would be even better." Wu Zhao smiled heartily, "There is no better place for Lydia to go through the experience than this family and see what the consequences of her actions will be - just let someone pay attention, don't be serious. Frozen and starved to death."
"Don't worry." Qing Niang nodded calmly, "Even if Lydia didn't come over, I have ordered someone to take care of every household on the farm, so that no one will die of freezing and starvation this year."
"That's good. You'll be safe, I believe it." Qing Niang was in charge of the Daming Palace, which was so big back then. Could there be mistakes on a farm?Wu Zhao was very relieved of her, "Since this is the case, Sara, you can take someone back tomorrow. Also, take a look at how everything is going on in the manor. If there is anything you can't decide, you can deal with it first."
Sara quickly bowed down and pulled the young lady down to get ready.
Wu Zhao continued to take out the book and idly flipped through it until the sun was sinking outside and the maid came in lightly and lit the lamp in the room, then got up and stretched, and asked, "What time is it?"
The maid quickly extinguished the fire in her hand, and whispered back: "It's almost seven o'clock—do you want dinner?"
"Yeah
. "Wu Zhao took a few steps to move his numb legs and said casually, "Let Mrs. Reynolds get ready—by the way, did you receive a letter from my brother today?" "
Darcy and Stuart's return journey has been delayed again and again, and the latest note only briefly stated that the return date is delayed. Counting, Wu Zhao has not received a letter or a message from Darcy for three or four days. up.
The maid was busy trying to reply, but she didn't receive it, she suddenly looked up and saw a few lanterns floating in the distance from the path in the middle of the lawn, she immediately shouted excitedly, "Miss, look, is that Mr. Darcy's outside?" carriage?!"
Wu Zhao's back was facing the window. Hearing this, he hurriedly turned around to look, and couldn't help being happy, "Yes, it's my brother who's back!"
She hurriedly asked the maid to put on a coat for herself, then changed the sleeping shoes on her feet, and hurriedly ran downstairs to the hall.
Just when Wu Zhao came down the stairs, there was a long click on the huge wooden door connecting the hall to the outer hall, and the travel-worn Darcy strode in with a dusty face covered with running around.
"Brother!" Wu Zhao quickly lifted the hem of her skirt, laughed and threw herself into Darcy's arms, wrapping her arms around his back, the joy on her face was so overflowing, "Why are you back today! "
Responding to her was Darcy's half-clenched fist, which also patted her on the back a few times, "I am so happy to see you, and I feel the same way, Gina."
Wu Zhao smiled and stood on tiptoe, and lightly touched Darcy's cheek left and right, and then slowly retreated.
"This is really eye-catching."
Wu Zhao was not surprised to see Stuart walking in from the door, but he still raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, it's so late, why don't you go back to your Earl's Mansion?"
Stuart frowned exaggeratedly, "This is really sad, dear Miss Gina, we just met, do you want me to go back?"
He took a few steps forward with a smile, and put a sticker on Wu Zhao's raised hand, "It seems that London is not so depressing. At least you look good."
"However, I have brought some bad news today." Stuart straightened up and said seriously, "Unfortunately, miss, the frontline battle has failed, and our army may have to take another step back."
Wu Zhao's heart jumped a few times, she turned her head to look at Darcy, and got a slight nod in response.
"If France succeeds in the war in the north, I'm afraid this will be the sixth defeat of the alliance." Stuart's face was calm, as if this incident had no effect on him, and he was not as calm as a A former officer with great influence in the army, son of the previous Marshal.
"So, Gina, I'm sorry to say that this year's Yule Ball is cancelled."
"Cancel the Christmas ball?" Wu Zhao glanced at Stuart in surprise.
"Yes, the decision made by the Queen." Stuart spread his hands, "To support the soldiers on the front line—although I don't think it's useful, it's an attitude anyway."
"So you came back this evening just to tell me the dance is cancelled?"
"Not all," said Darcy shortly, "London
It's going to be a mess for a while, and there's going to be a cleanup.I don't trust you, so I want you to go back to Pemberley. "
"Why are you always in a hurry lately?" Wu Zhao couldn't help laughing, thinking about just rushing to London from Nesfield a few days ago because of this, she didn't want to go back to Pemberley before waiting for a few days.
"Don't be so anxious this time." Darcy added, "You can stay in London for a few more days. Although the Yule Ball will not be held, Christmas will always be over. You can say goodbye to your friends."
"Okay." Wu Zhao agreed. In fact, she didn't want to leave London so soon, mainly because Asha's matter had not yet been resolved.
She always felt that this matter was not that simple, and she had to tell Darcy and Stuart to make them also prepare.In case someone really wants to start with shipping, it is also to prevent in advance.
Wu Zhao pondered for a long while without speaking, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that she had followed Darcy and Stuart to the reception room and sat down at some point, and Stuart was still covering her legs considerately. a blanket.
"Thank you." Wu Zhao patted Stutt's arm with a smile, causing him to look at Wu Zhao several times. Before Stutt could speak, Wu Zhao said immediately, "There is one more thing about Shipping—although shipping has nothing to do with me, I think there is something strange about this..."
She was about to tell the story of Yasha's family, when Stuart smiled slowly, "Who said shipping has nothing to do with you?"
