Seeing her like this, Su Mengyan couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the person Situ Yao sent was indeed not a simple person. As the queen, if she was an ordinary palace maid, she would be a little scared when she saw her, or she would be curious about her palace.
But looking at this palace maid, her eyes are looking at her nose and her nose is looking at her heart, her head is slightly drooping, her eyes are looking directly at the ground, her back is straight, and she does not feel humble at all even when she is kneeling on the ground.
"Get up!" After all, this was someone sent by Situ Yao, and Su Mengyan didn't want to let him kneel on the ground all the time. Although she didn't know whether Situ Yao arranged this person to take care of her or to monitor her, Su Mengyan could only respond to his moves as they came.
Remember what the eunuch said just now, this palace maid is a useful person. Su Mengyan thought of An Lirong's matter, and asked her maids to investigate, but there was no clue.
Looking at Biyun's expressionless face, Su Mengyan had an idea: "Biyun, right? Go check on the affairs of the Minister of Revenue, especially regarding the concubines. You must find out everything."
Since he is a useful person and will be around me in the future anyway, why shouldn’t I use him?
Although Biyun didn't know why Su Mengyan asked her to inquire about this matter, she thought of what Situ Yao said before she came, so she agreed.
In the Willow House in the Garden, Lin Xiangru felt embarrassed to go out for several days since his last so-called waiting in the bedroom, for fear that he would hear people talking about him if he went out.
Of course, she is not afraid of those things, but she also doesn't like it. After all, she is a girl and is thin-skinned. She can't stand others saying that she can't keep people.
But during this period, Situ Yao never came to her again, and she didn't want to go out. For a while, she was extremely bored.
Thinking of the letter Cui Mixue wrote to her some time ago, she wrote a reply and released the pigeon.
However, logically speaking, the letter should have reached Cui Mixue's hands and should have returned by now. Why haven't we seen the pigeon come back yet?
Lin Xiangru was a little worried. After all, it was the first time he used a pigeon to deliver a message since arriving at the palace. Could the pigeon be lost?
With this idea in mind, Lin Xiangru felt that she could not sit there and wait for death. She wanted to go out and take a look. In case the pigeon could not find its own palace because the palace was too big, she could bring it back if she saw it.
In this way, Lin Xiangru dressed up appropriately and left Wanliuju. Along the way, he looked up from time to time to see if there were any pigeons flying by.
When she reached the imperial garden, she smelled a strange smell.
What is this? Lin Xiangru sniffed carefully and it seemed to be the smell of barbecue. Lin Xiangru looked at a nearby forest. The smell came from there.
As I strode into the woods, I heard two people chatting: "This pigeon doesn't look big, but it has a lot of meat."
"Isn't it? We two brothers have transformed our lives this time."
Pigeons? These two words fell into Lin Xiangru's ears. Lin Xiangru had already seen the two people at this time. Looking at the things they were roasting on the fire, what else could it be but pigeons?
"How dare you! What are you doing here?" Lin Xiangru was annoyed. He had been worried for so long, but his pigeon was roasted by two guards. It was outrageous.
The two men were shocked. They were secretly roasting pigeons in the palace, and now they were discovered. How could they not be worried?
They quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy: "Please spare our lives, our Excellency. We know we are wrong."
Thinking of the letter on his pigeon, Lin Xiangru was a little worried. What should he do if the letter was discovered by these two people?
"Where did you catch the pigeon? What's the difference between this pigeon? Are you trying to kill yourself by eating it in the palace?" Lin Xiangru deliberately scared them to see if they would notice the letter.
Upon hearing this, the two men hurriedly said, "Sir, this isn't a pigeon my brothers shot. It was accidentally shot down by Miss Chen while she was practicing archery. We just thought it was a waste, so we picked it up and ate it."
What? Miss Chen, Lin Xiangru felt that things were becoming increasingly complicated.
"Then you shouldn't be cheating in the palace." He breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these two people should not have discovered anything wrong.
However, Miss Chen, if you dare to hit my pigeon, I will never forgive you.
After teaching a lesson to the two guards who ate his pigeons, Lin Xiangru rushed to Lady Chen's residence in anger.
Miss Chen's name is Chen Yalan. She is the daughter of a general and likes horse riding and archery, which are not popular among ordinary women.
It was precisely because of this that he was restless in the palace. Thinking that he could not neglect practice, he practiced archery in the imperial garden. Unexpectedly, he shot down Lin Xiangru's pigeon.
"Chen Yalan, come out." Lin Xiangru rushed into Chen Yalan's yard without stopping. Chen Yalan was resting in the room. When she heard the voice and was about to go out, she saw Lin Xiangru coming in.
"Oh, isn't this Concubine Lin? What brings you here?" Chen Yalan has always been a casual person. Now that the person has rushed into her room, there is no need for her to be polite.
"What's the matter? Why did you hit my pigeon?" Lin Xiangru became even angrier when he saw Chen Yalan's expression. It was clearly her who did something wrong, so how could she dare to speak like that?
"Oh, so that pigeon is yours? And you wrote the letter on it, too?"
What? She actually knew about the letter? Lin Xiangru's anger instantly extinguished a lot. What should he do? What should he do?
"You, what nonsense are you talking about? I don't know what letter you are talking about."
But her reaction made Chen Yalan realize that the letter was written by the woman in front of her: "So you didn't know!"
Lin Xiangru nodded hurriedly, as if afraid that Chen Yalan would not believe him, and said, "Yes, yes, I don't know what faith is."
"Is that so?" Chen Yalan propped her head up with her hand, pretending to be in deep thought. "In that case, I can only hand the letter to the emperor."
No, I must not let the letter reach the emperor. If the emperor knew that I was collaborating with Cui Mixue, I don’t know how he would punish me!
"My dear sister, the letter was indeed written by me. Why don't you return it to me?" Lin Xiangru had to admit at this time that she had to get the letter back first.
"Didn't you just say it's not yours?" Chen Yalan looked confused, as if she couldn't understand the current situation.
"How about this, I can't take it for free. I'll give you a set of jewelry, and you give me the letter, okay?" Even if Lin Xiangru was reluctant at this time, he had to give it up.
Chen Yalan thought about it and said to Lin Xiangru: "Okay, since you want it, I'll give it to you. It's not important anyway."
She is not a fool, and there are some things she doesn't want to get involved in. A letter can't do anything to Lin Xiangru, so she might as well sell Lin Xiangru out.
