Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

The defense of the Duke's mansion is very strict, especially around Catherine's room. In order to prevent Catherine from sneaking away, they raised the defense level to the highest level, which is already comparable to the Duke of Kerak.

"I asked you to send more people to Catherine today, have you sent them?" Kerak said lightly.

"It's already been dispatched. If that person dares to come, he will definitely be able to catch her." Tove said with a serious face.

"What do you think that man sneaked into Catherine's room for?" Kerak said with a hint of sophistication.

"This...could it be Catherine's friend? Came to visit her?" Tove hesitated.

"No." Karak shook his head, squinted his eyes, and said indifferently, "Catherine is not reconciled, watch her, the maids come in and out, remember to search, and send two maids to watch."

He understands his daughter's temperament, after all, it is so easy to understand, all emotions are shown on her face. The mysterious woman went last night, and Catherine ate. There was no change, and he didn't believe it.

Then there is a possibility that Catherine wants to escape marriage, which will change Catherine, after all, she has been dying before.

"Yes." Tove responded quickly, and he immediately arranged for someone.

...

At noon, the maid walked to Catherine's room with lunch, and saw two middle-aged maids at the door.

"Who are you?" the maid asked in surprise.

"We were sent by the master to help. You need to check yourself when you go in." The middle-aged maid said flatly.

"Give me my lunch, and after the inspection, you can go in."

"You..." The maid hesitated, but obediently let the middle-aged maid touch her body, and after finding nothing, she brought the lunch in.

"Kagji..."

"Huh... who is it?" The maid was annoyed in her heart, and closed the door after finishing her lunch.

"How is it?" Catherine asked eagerly.

"Miss, nothing happened, it was still the same last night." The maid reassured.

"Really?" Catherine frowned, nothing happened, what happened to the knight outside?

"Miss, someone searched me at the door just now." The maid said without distraction.

"Huh?" Catherine was stunned for a moment, her face immediately turned solemn. She knew that the Leopard-eared Lady had been exposed, otherwise she wouldn't have searched again.

Now that it was over, Catherine sat on the chair weakly, her face was pale, and her guard was even tighter. It would be even more difficult for Liu Feng to rescue her.

"Miss, let's have lunch." The maid set the lunch, saw Catherine's face was ugly, and said, "The chef in the kitchen was really interesting just now, and said that this lunch was learned from Xiyang City. I didn't expect Xiyang The city's food reputation has spread here, and that person doesn't even look at it to tell anyone, doesn't he know that we have been to Xiyang City?"

"Stop? Did you learn cooking skills from Xiyang City for lunch?" Catherine's golden eyes widened. She immediately thought that Nicole had told her that Xiyang City's cooking skills were not passed on to outsiders, could it?

"Yes, that's what that person said." The maid nodded affirmatively.

Catherine thought of a possibility, picked up the chopsticks and turned over the lunch, and after turning over a steak, she found a small bamboo tube stuffed in the steak.

Such a method of information transmission? ? ?

Chapter 0635 information transmission (below).

"Huh? Why is there something here?" The maid looked at the bamboo tube the size of her index finger in astonishment.

"Hua'er, keep your voice down." Catherine glared at the maid Hua'er, carefully picked out the bamboo tube from the steak with chopsticks, and then wiped it clean with a sackcloth.

She flipped through it, carefully picked out the plug from one end of the bamboo tube, and found a note stuffed inside.

"This..." Hua'er widened her eyes, looking at this scene in astonishment, it was really miraculous.

"As expected of Jones, this method can also be thought of." Catherine raised the corner of her mouth, and her golden eyes looked at the unfolded note.

A few words were written on the note: I am Jones, your room is under martial law, and you can't sneak in for the time being. The chef in the back kitchen has been bribed. You can stuff the letter into a bamboo tube and bring it out to me.

"..." Seeing the young lady's smile, Hua'er thought of the abnormality of the young lady yesterday, how could she still not understand it, and then thought of what the chef said just now, she covered her mouth and looked at her young lady in surprise.

Miss, this is related to Xiyang City. Could it be that Mr. Liu Feng is having an affair with Miss? Oh my god, no wonder the young lady is unwilling to marry the eldest prince.

In other words, apart from being the future king, the eldest prince really has nothing to do with it. After all, Xiyang City has delicious food, as well as fun things to make people feel comfortable. If Miss married Mrs. Liu Feng, would I also Can you live in Xiyang City?

Not to mention the wild thoughts of the little maid Hua'er, Catherine immediately rolled the letter written last night into a roll and stuffed it into the bamboo tube, then sealed the stopper, put it back into the steak, and then fiddled with the color of the dishes.

"Wait a minute, take this lunch back to the kitchen, as before." Catherine instructed Hua'er.

"Understood." Hua'er assured.

"Be natural." Catherine warned, she didn't want this long-term information channel to be discovered.

"Yes." Hua'er nodded seriously, and then teased, "Miss, who gave you that letter? Could it be Lord Liu Feng?"

"You're the one who has trouble." Catherine raised the corners of her mouth and rolled her eyes. "If something goes wrong, I'll marry you to Er Mazi."

"Ah? No, I want to follow Miss." Hua'er turned pale in astonishment.

Er Mazi is a fire cook in the back kitchen. His face is covered with spots and he is very courageous.

"It's good if you know it, it's done, and you'll vomit after eating delicious food." Catherine was lying on the bed, and the days of waiting like this were not easy.

"Absolutely no problem." Hua'er patted her flat chest for assurance.

"Go ahead, just say I have no appetite." Catherine waved her hand.

"Okay." Hua'er wiped the chopsticks, put them back on the tray, checked carefully, and left the room with her lunch.

"Kagji..."

"Stop and check."

Sure enough, Hua'er was stopped when she went out, and her clothes were checked again, and she even glanced at her lunch.

"Why didn't you eat this lunch?" asked the middle-aged maid.

"Miss, I've lost my appetite again." Hua'er pretended to sigh.

"Go." The two middle-aged maids had also heard about Catherine, and they didn't suspect anything.

Hua'er breathed a sigh of relief, took the lunch to the back kitchen as usual, and handed it to the chef in the back kitchen.

"Flowers, won't Miss Catherine eat it again?" The chef looked at the lunch with twinkling eyes.

"Yeah, Miss has no appetite." Hua'er said helplessly, "You should deal with it according to the old rules."

"Okay." The chef nodded quickly. According to the usual rules, the food that the young lady can't finish will be thrown into the fire and burned, so that no one will eat the young lady's food.
