"Why did you bring two?"

Mingyue frowned slightly when she saw Qianniu Guards brought two women, one big and one small.

Don't underestimate her because she is just a personal maid beside Li Lizhi.

But in front of outsiders.

Especially at this moment when he was holding the imperial token bestowed by His Majesty, he looked extremely majestic.

"My dear, both of them were found in the inner quarters of Duke Ying's mansion, and both claimed to be the second wives of Duke Ying's mansion.

It is difficult for me to tell whether it is true or false, so I can only bring them all. I hope the young lady will forgive me!"

Facing Mingyue's questioning, the leader of Qianniu Guard knelt on one knee and hurriedly explained.

"Oh? So they all belong to Duke Ying's Mansion."

Mingyue nodded, turned and left, "Come with me!"

Because of Li Lizhi's attitude just now, she was very angry.

Therefore, Mingyue's attitude towards them naturally couldn't be any better.

As soon as Wu Shuner entered the mansion, she was stunned by its magnificence.

He was timid all the way and didn't even dare to raise his head.

On the contrary, it was Wu Zhaoer who discovered that the Qianniu Guards did not bring her and her sisters to the imperial palace.

But it was behind a mansion next to the imperial palace.

I couldn't help but wonder, could this be the imperial palace villa that was just built not long ago?

Or, can we go straight into the imperial palace from here?

When she entered the mansion, she noticed that there was no plaque hanging in front of the door.

Along the way, Wu Zhaoer didn't dare to look around blatantly.

But those big watery eyes still couldn't help but glance around secretly.

His eyes were full of curiosity and desire.

He even couldn't help but secretly take out a jade pendant from his arms.

He ran to Mingyue in three or two steps and pretended to put it into her hand accidentally.

"Sister, I have worn this jade pendant since I was a child. Although it is not expensive, it is also unique.

I am delighted to see you today, sister. I would like to give you this jade as a gift."

Ha! Giving gifts? You know how to give gifts at such a young age! ? ?

Mingyue was immediately shocked by the little girl's actions.

At the same time, I also understand why those Qianniu Guards made mistakes.

After all, no one could have imagined that the little girl in front of her was actually Wu Erniang, the one she was looking for with the "As if I were here in person" token.

It is not surprising that the girl next to him... with a plump and round figure, was also sent to the princess's mansion.

Faced with the little girl's gift, Mingyue accepted it without hesitation and continued walking forward.

When Wu Zhaoer saw Mingyue accept her jade pendant, she was immediately delighted.

She quickly took the opportunity to step forward and tried to find out why His Majesty had summoned her.

"Sister, I wonder why His Majesty summoned me here?"

She asked cautiously, fearing to offend the seemingly noble maid.

However, Mingyue did not answer.

He just glanced at her coldly, with a hint of displeasure on his face.

Wu Zhaoer's heart trembled when Mingyue looked at her, as if being blown by a cold wind.

She couldn't help but lower her head in fear.

But Wu Zhaoer did not give up, but tried to find out the information in a different way.

“Sister, I…I’m just a little nervous and don’t know how to respond to His Majesty’s summons.

Sister, can you give me some pointers?"

Her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of pleading and expectation.

At the same time, he couldn't help but slander in his heart.

The maid in front of me is so bad and hateful.

He clearly accepted the jade pendant, but was reluctant to reveal any information.

That was the jade pendant of love that my mother gave to him.

However, Mingyue still did not respond to her, but just continued to move forward on her own.

Seeing this, Wu Zhaoer didn't dare to ask any more questions.

She knew that everything can be done once or twice, but not three times.

Since you didn't answer after being asked twice, asking again will only make people annoyed.

Mingyue led the two women forward.

It took nearly half an hour to walk to Cuizhuxuan in the backyard of the princess's mansion, which was also Li Lizhi's main residence.

"You wait here." Mingyue left a word and turned to go into the room.

Wu Zhaoer and Wu Shuner looked at each other and saw the tension and anxiety in each other's eyes.

They stood obediently in the yard waiting, not daring to move.

But Wu Zhaoer's naturally curious eyes couldn't help but look around.

She thought to herself that the layout here seemed more refined and the atmosphere more private.

Could it be that... this is the private residence where His Majesty collects beauties from all over the world outside the palace?

But...why did he summon me to a place like this?

Could it be that he has some special hobby?

Just like what is said in those stories...

…

Mingyue stepped lightly into the inner room.

Li Lizhi was seen gently hugging the "little princess" and sitting in front of a beautifully decorated dining table.

The table is filled with all kinds of delicious food, colorful and fragrant.

Obviously they are all carefully cooked and selected.

"Your Highness," Mingyue called softly, "The second lady of the Wu family has been brought here and is waiting in the courtyard."

"And on the way here, he gave me a jade pendant!"

As she spoke, Mingyue took out the jade pendant that Wu Zhaoer had given her and placed it on the dining table.

Upon hearing this, Li Lizhi nodded slightly to show that she understood, but did not respond immediately.

She continued to pick up a piece of "delicious food" and put it to the "little princess's" mouth, "Ah~ open your mouth~!"

"Sister, I'm really full!"

Li Haoze made a bitter face, rubbing his slightly swollen belly and complaining helplessly, "I'm still pregnant!"

"Seven more and I'll burst!"
