"Master, the food is still prepared for the girl. She has worked hard all day, why not let her have a hot meal first."
The subordinate at the side stepped forward and kindly reminded him.
It was already this late. If it were a normal day, they would have already gone to bed. But Chaoge was their honored guest, so how could they show disrespect to him?
"Yes, yes, yes, go and bring the food, and clean up the room prepared for the girl. The girl has just arrived in Beipinglu, so the charcoal basin is also necessary. It is too cold at night."
The subordinate obeyed the order, bowed and left.
When the subordinate brought the food up, Chaoge felt inexplicably sad when he saw a piece of meat bone, a bowl of rice porridge and two white steamed buns in front of him.
The Beggars' Sect shouldn't be so poor, right?!
As if they had noticed the surprise in Chaoge's eyes, Master Bai and his subordinates' faces suddenly turned red.
"I'm really sorry, young lady. We at Baiping Hall don't get a single order all year round, and sometimes we only get one order every few years. The headquarters subsidizes us 200 taels of silver every year, but there are so many brothers, sometimes we can't get food, so we have to come to the hall to eat, so this is... I wanted to go out to buy some good food for you this evening, but the store was closed."
Looking at the embarrassment on Hall Master Bai's face, Chaoge felt a little guilty for not restraining himself just now.
She had thought that the Beggars' Gang was just like the Beggars' Gang she knew in her previous life, appearing poor on the surface but actually not poor at all.
Who would have thought that the Beggars' Gang brothers far away in a foreign country were so poor and destitute that even the leader of a gang was in such an embarrassing situation.
If I don't give them the 100 taels of gold notes today, I wonder if they will have any money left?
"It's nothing, Master Bai, you don't have to apologize, this is already very good."
It was indeed good. While eating, Chaoge activated his wood-related skills and looked towards Bai Pingtang’s kitchen.
In the huge rice jar, there was less than half a pound of rice, thirty pounds of flour, and two sacks of sweet potatoes and miscellaneous grains, but that was enough food for hundreds of brothers for the entire winter.
It's covered in snow outside. Let alone going out to beg, most people have already stocked up food for the winter and never go out. Where can they go to beg?
No wonder Master Bai, knowing full well that it was like an egg hitting a stone, was determined to lead hundreds of his brothers to fight against the thousands of Tianhu Gang members.
But what Chaoge didn’t understand was that the Bai Pingtang was so poor, how could the people from the Tianhu Gang think that the head of the Bai Hall could come up with five thousand taels of silver?
Or is this just an excuse to get rid of Bai Pingtang?
After Chaoge finished his meal, he received a rough layout map of the imperial palace hand-drawn by Master Bai.
It seems that she underestimated the Beggars' Sect after all.
Can a person who can memorize the layout of a country's imperial palace be an ordinary person?
"Miss, this Beiping Lu is good at mechanical devices. There are mechanical devices everywhere in this palace. If you accidentally touch one, it will be difficult to escape, so you must be extremely careful."
Chaoge withdrew his gaze from the palace layout map and nodded gratefully to Master Bai. "Thank you for your reminder, Master Bai. I will be careful."
Chaoge rested for a while in the house prepared by Master Bai, until the second half of the night when everyone went to bed. She directly bought a bunch of rice, flour, pumpkin, winter melon, radish, cabbage, a few slaughtered pigs, and some quilts, cotton clothes, and cotton shoes and piled them in the house.
He also drew a construction diagram of a "kang" for them and wrote down methods on how to build and use it before he disappeared.
Everything was silent. The only sound in the entire Baiping Hall was the sound of the wind and snow at night.
Chaoge arrived at the imperial palace and headed towards the palace specially marked by Master Bai.
In fact, she felt vaguely uneasy.
For someone of Yun Chaohao's age, who was abandoned outside the city of Taichuan Prefecture, even if he was picked up and brought to the palace, he would probably live as a slave, right?
If Yun Chaohao really became a eunuch, I wonder how heartbroken Yun Chang would be?
Never mind, it’s better than serving others here.
After searching for a while, Chaoge finally found the palace marked by Master Bai. However, she didn't expect that there was still a faint candlelight in the palace at late night.
I gently pushed open the door of the palace and walked in. A gust of cold wind blew into the palace, and the sound of reading inside stopped immediately.
The child couldn't help but curl up his body. His drowsy head was suddenly awakened by the cold wind.
"Young Master Yan, you'd better not recite it. It's already the middle of the zodiac hour. You're still growing. If you work so hard, what if you don't grow taller?"
As soon as Chaoge came in, he was shocked by the scene in front of him!
She was feeling uneasy at first, but when she saw the child sitting cross-legged on the carpet with his hands on the table, she was completely stunned!
"No, the Imperial Concubine said that she wants to check tomorrow. These acupuncture point maps are too difficult to remember. I can't let the Imperial Concubine down."
Hearing this, the young eunuch had no choice but to pick up the teapot that was warming on the tea stove beside him and pour a cup of hot tea for the child.
"This is Canglanchao's tea. It has a refreshing effect. Young Master Yan, take a sip first to refresh yourself."
Hearing this, the child picked up the teacup and drank it all. He then poured himself another cup and drank it again. Then he continued to hold the book and recited.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chaoge didn't know whether he should disturb him.
He seems to be doing well.
Indeed, this person should be Yun Chaohao, but he is completely different from what they imagined.
But at least, he was still alive, not homeless, not freezing or starving. This was the best ending.
Chaoge shot out a silver needle, knocking the young eunuch serving nearby unconscious. He then appeared behind a pillar in the bedroom.
"Chao Hao."
A soft voice was heard amid the faint sound of recitation. Yun Chaohao, who was concentrating on reciting, paused and looked up in fright!
He didn't hear wrongly, what he heard was Canglan Chao's words!
Unlike here, what others say about the Canglan Chao talk!
His eyes fell on the unconscious little eunuch, and the child's heart tightened and he became panic-stricken.
Looking at the slender figure coming into sight, Chaoge took off the wide hat on the cloak on his head, revealing a fair and beautiful face.
Yun Chaohao, who was sitting on the carpet, looked up blankly at Yun Chaoge who was standing in front of his desk. He was completely stunned!
"Chao Hao, don't you recognize me?"
"you......"
When Chaoge left, Yun Chaohao was only about five years old. He had experienced so much in between, so how could he still remember what his eldest sister looked like.
But he subconsciously felt that the face in front of him was so familiar...
