Chapter 331 Tuan Tuan Little Genius
The two little ones couldn't sleep either, and they excitedly made noises in bed with their parents for most of the night.
Gu Huan was so tired that she simply fell asleep on the bed, letting the two little ones take care of Mu Junyan while she fell asleep.
The next day.
Mu Junyan did not leave early, but had breakfast with the children together with Gu Huan.
The people in the palace understood that they could spread the news that the prince and princess had reconciled.
Yin Tao and Yiyun still strolled in the garden every morning, but they were not allowed to go to the prince's study.
In order to know more about what was going on in the mansion, they usually walked around the garden and listened to the servants' conversations.
Suddenly, Yin Tao looked sharp, grabbed Yiyun and pointed to a patch of grass.
Yiyun saw a piece of wood sticking out of the grass, and looked around in panic. Seeing that no one noticed them, the two of them hurried over.
Yin Tao pretended to appreciate the flowers. Yiyun squatted down and picked up the wooden hairpin. She took a look at it and confirmed that it was a token given by the Queen. She immediately put it into her sleeve and stood up as if nothing had happened.
Yin Tao lowered her voice and said, "Go back."
It was also the first time for Yiyun to do such a thing, so he nodded quickly, and the two of them left in a panic.
Not far away, a maid looked up at them, then continued to work with her head down.
The two hurried back to the courtyard, opened the wooden hairpin, but found it was empty.
They were both dumbfounded.
"What does this mean? You received the token and threw it back to us. Are you playing hide-and-seek?"
Yin Tao looked puzzled: "We don't know who picked up the hairpin or who lost it, how can we find it?"
Yiyun held the hairpin and thought for a while: "At least it proves that there are still people belonging to the Queen in the palace."
Yin Tao suddenly realized: "Yes, the hairpin appeared in the garden, which means that the person is in the mansion and can enter the inner courtyard."
She thought for a moment: "But how do we know who it is?"
Yiyun was calm: "Be patient, he will show up."
…
In the garden, a large group of servants trotted along with the two little pink balls.
"Miss, run slower, be careful not to fall."
Yuanyuan waved the round fan in her hand and said, "I won't fall, Tuantuan, let's have a race to see who can run faster."
Tuantuan took small square steps politely and shook his head: "No, I won't run."
Yuanyuan was holding a round fan, catching butterflies and jumping around.
Looking back at his brother taking slow steps, he could not help but feel dissatisfied. He stopped with his hands on his hips, looking disgusted: "You are so slow, like a girl."
Tuantuan rolled his eyes at her and said in a baby voice, "You act like a boy, not a lady."
Yuanyuan got angry, and rushed over waving her round fan, staring at Tuantuan, and yelled fiercely: "Then let mother stuff us back into her belly. I like being a boy. Let you be a girl again."
Tuantuan ignored her and kept his eyes on the ground.
Seeing that he ignored her, Yuanyuan became even angrier: "I'll tell mom that you don't respect my elder sister."
Tuan Tuan suddenly squatted down and looked at the ground in the grass seriously.
Yuanyuan pouted and leaned over to take a look. She immediately forgot about the previous topic and asked curiously, "Why are there so many ants?"
Tuantuan: "Because it's going to rain."
Yuanyuan looked suspicious: "What's the connection between ants and rain?"
Tuantuan: "When it rains, the ants migrate."
Yuanyuan tilted her head and said "oh", then squatted down and watched the ants moving next to Tuantuan.
Seeing a long line of ants with white objects stuck on their heads, Yuanyuan excitedly shouted, "Ants are moving with food on their backs."
Yuanyuan thought it was fun, so she raised her round fan and fanned the ants. Soon, a group of ants were blown away.
But there was a group of ants in the grass that seemed unable to move, as they were stuck by something yellow.
Tuantuan tilted his head to look at the pile of ants, chanting, "Zi, Western Wall."
Donghua took a closer look, also full of curiosity.
The ants actually formed three words. Although the words were arranged in a circle, they could be vaguely seen.
Tuantuan reached out and touched the yellow thing, which was sticky and looked like candy.
The ants seemed to have discovered a new escape route and immediately climbed up along his finger.
Yuanyuan screamed: "Brother, there are ants crawling on your hands."
The wet nurses came up quickly and used handkerchiefs to clean the ants off Tuantuan.
A maid holding a hoe and a bamboo basket came over quickly: "Oh, young master and young lady, ants are so dirty, you should not play here. Be careful not to dirty your clothes."
As she spoke, she put the bamboo basket down, right where the words written with sugar were stuck with a bunch of ants.
The two wet nurses picked up Tuantuan and Yuanyuan respectively.
Donghua also smiled and said, "Let's go back and have some snacks."
When Yuanyuan heard about snacks, she immediately forgot about the ant incident and counted on her fingers happily: "Mom said she would make buttered abalone, smiley faces, da nai cake, and fried dough dumplings for Yuanyuan today."
Tuan Tuan was carried away by the wet nurse, but his eyes were fixed on the maid who was tending the flowers and plants.
Back at Fulu Hall, Tuantuan pulled Donghua's sleeve and said in a baby voice, "Go catch that sister."
Donghua squatted down and asked him, "Which sister?"
The little face was serious: "Sister, sister, sister."
Donghua tilted her head and thought for a while: "Tuantuan is saying that the maid also saw the ant character just now?"
Tuantuan nodded vigorously.
Donghua was suddenly shocked: "Mammy, I'll go find the princess."
"Okay, go ahead."
The nanny in charge of Tuantuan took a clean handkerchief to wipe Tuantuan's hands.
Gu Huan was busy in the kitchen watching someone make snacks for the two little babies. Dong Hua came in hurriedly and whispered, "Madam, I have something important to report."
Seeing that she looked strange, Gu Huan left the kitchen.
Donghua said anxiously: "There is a gap in the mansion."
Then she told Tuantuan everything about how he discovered the ant word.
Gu Huan's face was serious: "Go and ask Dong Mo and Chi Yu to come to Fu Lu Tang to see me."
Akabane and Dongmo were not surprised after hearing Donghua's retelling.
"This person is the one who is in contact with Yin Tao and Yiyun."
Gu Hua looked at Chi Yu: "You have been watching, right?"
Akabane nodded: "We kept an eye on them without alerting them. We wanted to see what information they wanted to send out. They should be the Queen's men."
Gu Huan was relieved. "Well, since you have set your sights on them, just keep watching. Donghua, you have to keep an eye on Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. Don't go to the garden to play until they are caught. Just stay in Fulu Hall."
Donghua nodded: "Yes."
"By the way, have you found out the backgrounds of Yin Tao and Yi Yun?"
Akabane: "I knew before that Yin Tao grew up in a brothel. Yiyun's father was originally the governor of Gongzhou. He was sentenced to exile for reselling official salt. She was the only daughter. She and her mother were sent to the Jiaofangsi together, but her mother committed suicide. She was in the Jiaofangsi of Bianjing for half a year, and was selected by Empress Sun to enter the palace and became a maid beside the empress. At the same time, Yin Tao was also selected to enter the palace. The two exchanged their identities and were sent here."
"Is her father still alive?"
"Alive, the place of exile happens to be in Yongzhou in southern Xinjiang."
"Oh, have you checked on his current situation?"
"Someone has been sent there. He should be back in the next two days."
Gu Huan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you guys just keep an eye on it first. Let me know as soon as there's any news."
"yes."
As soon as they left, Gu Huan and Dong Hua went to the room where the children were playing.
When Tuantuan and Yuanyuan saw their mother, they excitedly rushed over to them, and Gu Huan quickly hugged them one by one.
She looked at Tuan Tuan with curiosity and venom: "How do you know it will rain when ants move?"
"It's written in the book." Tuantuan said in a baby voice, tilting his head.
"Can you read?"
Gu Huancai didn't believe it.
Donghua smiled and said, "I did read it to the young master. But the book was chosen by the young master. He likes to listen to these miscellaneous books the most."
Gu Huan touched Tuan Tuan's little head in surprise.
Her son is so smart and has amazing observation skills.
It seems that I have to discuss with Mu Junyan and find a good master to teach me.
