There was no beginning or end to the words, but soon a waiter knocked on the door and came in, "Sir, what can I do for you?" There was no embarrassment at all about being caught red-handed.
Ximo not only looked at him more, but also felt that this waiter was not an ordinary waiter.
But it doesn't matter.
"Tell your chef to help the woman downstairs, um, that Ling Jing, and give me a portion of steamed and braised chess pieces, and treat the scholar well."
The waiter's expression remained unchanged, "Okay, sir."
Soon, someone came down, said a few words, and took away the chess pieces.
Not long after, she reappeared, carrying two bowls of food to the hall. In front of everyone, she poured the two bowls of soupy food into the chess box. In front of everyone's puzzled eyes, she said to Baili Feiyue, "Miss Ling San, a young master upstairs asked me to make one braised dish and one steamed dish."
He knew clearly that Ximo and Baili Feiyue were on the same side, so he would definitely not point it out.
Steamed? Braised?
When the waiter came to take the chess pieces, he didn’t tell him the reason.
Now Baili Feiyue took a look into the chess box and immediately laughed. After the seasoning was poured on the chess box, wasn't there a portion of steamed black chess pieces and a portion of braised white chess pieces?
This is absolutely amazing!
She glanced towards the second floor and saw that Ximo was indeed worthless compared to her.
"Thank that young man for me." He replied while trying not to smile.
Then he looked at the dumbfounded scholar and said, "Braised chess pieces, this is a great dish. It seems like you got a bargain today."
"Come on, I will feed you myself today?"
"No, don't!" The scholar was so scared that he lost his soul. He looked at Baili Feiyue who was approaching in horror. He wanted to run, but found that he couldn't move!
Su Yi said, "Miss, just let me do this. You don't want to dirty your hands."
Baili Feiyue didn't force it and handed the chess piece to her.
The scholar couldn't move for some reason and could only watch Su Yi feed the braised chess pieces into his mouth.
“Um… no…”
Seeing the scholar with his mouth full of chess pieces, the people in the hall looked at Baili Feiyue with eyes that were beyond description.
Not only look at Baili Feiyue, but also look at Su Yi.
Cruel master and evil servant!
This whole scene, from the beginning when Baili Feiyue and others came here to eat, to the death of someone, and then to the arrival of Young Master Jia and others, lasted for half the afternoon.
The sun was setting outside.
A place like Zuixianju has caused such a big commotion for a long time.
Basically, everyone who should know has received the news.
At the Prince Regent's Palace, a guard-like person just finished reporting the situation at Zuixianju and left. When he came out, he saw the imperial concubine outside the window, and the guard bowed respectfully before leaving.
The lady is well-maintained, but it is also obvious that she was not a beauty when she was young.
His simple features became more elegant and gentle as he grew older.
This person is none other than the hostess with the most special status in the Regent's Palace at present.
Although she was just a nanny, her status in the Regent's Palace was second only to Changsun Wuji and the young master.
The butler would consult her on all trivial matters within the Regent's Palace.
At this moment, Nanny Kang paused and lingered under the window for a moment.
In the end, he didn't go in and turned away.
Inside the house, Zhangsun Wuji, who was wearing a black robe and a mask, glanced at the direction where Nanny Kang had stood before with his purple eyes underneath the mask. The emotion in his eyes was unclear.
Besides, after Nanny Kang returned to her room in the courtyard, she sat down for a long while without saying a word.
Finally, she sighed, "I originally thought that Miss Ling San had a very good personality. The regent princess cannot be a weak and vulnerable person. Even if she can't help the prince, the prince can't have another burden around him."
The nanny next to her, who was only slightly younger than her but dressed like a servant, asked, "Sister Kang, do you think Third Miss Ling is in trouble?"
not good.
Miss Ling is in much worse condition.
Apart from the fact that Huichuntang's reputation has been changing recently, there is nothing good about her.
But being too pure and kind is not a good thing when becoming the Regent Princess.
But, Aunt Kang sighed again, "It's not that she's bad. I'm just a little worried." Looking at her, she repeated again, "Ah Qiao, I'm worried."
Ah Qiao's full name is Yin Qiao. She has been with Aunt Kang for many years. She is also Aunt Kang's sworn sister. She knows her sister to some extent.
"Sister Kang, are you worried about the prince?"
How could I not worry? Nanny Kang sighed again in her heart. At the beginning, the late princess entrusted the prince to her when she was dying. Even before that, when the prince was a child, she was the one who took care of him.
Although she was a servant, she said something she shouldn't have said.
In her heart, the prince is both her master and her child.
Is there any mother in the world who doesn't worry about her own children?
"Nothing in this world is perfect. Miss Ling San is not going to be a... good wife."
"Sister Kang, if you don't think it's a good idea, go tell the prince. I'm sure the prince will consider your opinion."
Yinqiao smiled again, "Or does Sister Kang have a better candidate in mind?"
Seeing Nanny Kang's expression flicker, Yinqiao understood and said, "Princess Jing'an is indeed a lovely girl."
Nanny Kang didn't respond. "That's all. It's just that." She frowned slightly. "Last night, Miss Ling broke into the palace at night and killed a guard of the Blood Shadow Guard."
Yinqiao said in shock, "This..."
"If it weren't for the prince's tacit approval, she wouldn't have killed anyone in the palace even if she was so arrogant."
Yinqiao's face was even more horrified, "Sister Kang, you mean that the prince..."
He didn't finish his words, but he understood it in his heart.
The prince is taking action against the Blood Shadow Guards!
The Blood Shadow Guard is the only one in this great scene that is not under the control of the prince. And its strength is terrifying. What does it mean that the prince attacked the Blood Shadow Guard?
But, "What does this have to do with Miss Ling San?" Yinqiao lowered her voice unconsciously.
"Of course there is." Nanny Kang gently twisted the fine glass beads in her hand, but did not say how.
There was a dark flash in his eyes. How could Miss Ling be the prince's weakness? Besides, she was not worthy of the prince...
In another place in Kyoto, someone also got the news of Baili Feiyue's every move in Zuixianju.
Yin Xuanmo, who was also wearing a black robe but had a completely different temperament from Changsun Wuji, tapped the table lightly with his index finger.
"Miss Ling San has an abnormal temperament?"
The thin old man next to him groaned, "According to the description of the guard just now, I think her temperament is indeed abnormal. Including the maid beside her." This person is none other than the one who worked with Baili Feiyue before. Yin Xuanmo wrote a letter to ask him to come from southern Xinjiang to solve the poison in Rongcheng.
Yin Xuanmo narrowed his sharp eyes slightly, "Could it be a show?"
The old man said, "During the process of removing the poison, I have observed Miss Ling San closely. She is indeed good at treating poisons, but she only knows the basics of witchcraft. Now, the Holy Maiden of the Witch Cult is about to arrive. She is wearing the Ten Thousand Gu Fear Clothes, the King of Gu that Ten Thousand Gu Fears. As the King of Gu gets closer, even people who are infected with ordinary Gu will become violent and bloodthirsty. Not to mention the kind of Gu in Miss Ling San’s body."
"I think that no matter how capable she is, she cannot resist the invasion and control of the Gu. Maybe she herself is completely unaware that she is more impulsive and bloodthirsty than usual." After all, the Gu in Miss Ling's body is special.
Even she would not notice the changes in herself.
