Chapter 76 The two old bitches have a conspiracy
The Royal Hot Spring Villa is only lively in winter, and usually only the palace guards are in charge of the yard.
The palace would send maids and eunuchs to clean the place every month.
The villa is very large, with more than 20 hot spring courtyards of various sizes. It takes several days to clean it, and the palace maids and eunuchs will stay there for several nights.
Just happened to be met by Ye Chutang.
The four palace maids chatted and laughed while carrying cleaning tools as they walked towards the largest hot spring pool.
"There will be a good show at Princess An's birthday banquet. Did you know?"
"Could it be that Prince An is planning to plot against Prince Chen and turn him into the husband of Princess Anping?"
"No, guess again."
"It can't be that Prince An is planning a rebellion on this day, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if Prince An has the intention to commit a crime, he doesn't have the guts to do it."
"What is that? Don't keep me in suspense. Tell me now."
The little palace maid pretended to be mysterious and said, "It has something to do with Minister Ye's eldest daughter."
Ye Chutang stayed after hearing these words.
She hid behind the rockery in the southwest corner and eavesdropped with her ears perked up.
"Is she the Miss Ye who grew up in the countryside but has great literary talent and can sell a piece of calligraphy for ten taels of gold?"
"Yes, it's her. Do you want to know what will happen to her on Princess An's birthday?"
"Of course I do. Tell me now."
The little maid held out her hand, "This information is hard to come by, if you want to know, pay the money."
"You miser, I knew you would want the silver, here you go."
The three palace maids placed the silver coins in their hands which were stretched out in the air.
"I can tell you now."
"Listen carefully, the emperor asked Prince An to plot against Prince Chen, so that he and Miss Ye could have physical contact, so that he could grant them marriage."
Ye Chutang: “…”
Why did the Dog Emperor insist on bringing her and Prince Chen together?
Her scumbag father also encouraged her to marry Prince Chen.
These two old bitches must be plotting something!
A maid asked curiously: "Ah? Why?"
"Of course it's because Prince Chen repeatedly refused the emperor's marriage proposal, which angered the emperor, so the emperor wanted to show him his power."
The Emperor wanted to arrange a marriage between Prince Chen and the eldest daughter of the Minister of Revenue, but Prince Chen refused.
Then he would plot against King Chen and make him beg him to grant him the marriage!
This reason sounded reasonable, but Ye Chutang didn't believe a word of it.
Although the Dog Emperor is a tyrant, he does not look at things so superficially. He must have a deeper purpose in pairing her with Prince Chen.
Ye Chutang thought that he had been out for a long time and the palace maid must not know the truth, so he went back to his boudoir.
Not long after returning, Dan'er knocked on the door.
"My lady, dinner is ready."
"good."
Ye Chutang took out a bag of sweet corn kernels from the space, threw away the plastic packaging, found a piece of coarse cloth to wrap it, and left the room.
She said to the people waiting for dinner, "Go sit in the dining room for a while. I'll make some sweet soup."
Shan Er immediately responded, "I'll help you add more fire."
"OK."
While Dan'er was adding firewood to the stove, Ye Chutang replaced the well water with spiritual spring water.
She also mixed the water, starch and beat the eggs.
Put Lingquan water into the pot and cook the corn kernels after the water boils.
Then add sugar and seasoning, thicken with water starch, and finally beat the eggs into egg flowers and serve.
"Okay, let's go eat."
Shan'er picked up the corn soup and was surprised to see the fresh corn kernels inside.
"Miss, the corn has just been planted, right? Where did you get the fresh corn kernels?"
Ye Chutang lied, "I saw it on the street. It cost me five taels of silver to buy this little bit."
Shan'er was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
If you are lucky, you can indeed buy out-of-season vegetables at such a high price.
Ye Chutang urged, "Everyone is waiting to eat, let's go to the kitchen."
Shan Er came back to his senses, "Yes, Miss."
As soon as the sweet corn soup cooked with spiritual spring water was served on the table, Jun'er started to drool.
"Jun'er, this is specially cooked for you, drink two more bowls."
Jun'er looked at Ye Chutang with tears in his eyes, and choked up, "Thank you, elder sister."
Ye Chutang smiled and scratched his nose.
"Aren't you ashamed to cry while eating?"
Jun'er immediately held back his tears, "Jun'er is happy, Jun'er don't cry."
"Good boy, let's eat."
After dinner, Ye Chutang asked, "Shuang'er hasn't come back all day?"
Dan, who was cleaning the table, shook his head and said, "No, she is seriously injured and works slowly. She may not have finished cleaning the toilet yet."
She doesn't feel sorry for Shuang'er at all. It's her own fault!
"Then leave her alone."
After Ye Chutang finished speaking, he took Jun'er for a walk to help digest the food.
She walked deliberately in the direction of Liuliyuan.
The closer they got, the clearer Kong Ru's hoarse screams became.
Jun'er was so scared that he dared not move forward.
He recalled the pain he felt when he was force-fed drugs. It was so painful, but he didn't have the strength to cry out.
Ye Chutang squatted in front of Jun'er and looked at him seriously.
"If you think I did something wrong, I will go and heal your mother."
"She's not my mother."
Ye Chutang didn't take this seriously. He thought Jun'er had been tortured by Kong Ru for too long and wanted to distance himself from her.
"My eldest sister is a good person. Whatever she does is right."
Jun'er said this firmly, suppressing the fear in his heart, holding Ye Chutang's hand, and walked towards the Liuli Courtyard step by step.
He wanted to prove to his elder sister that he was very brave and that he didn't care whether his mother was in pain or not.
After Ye Chutang was sure that Jun'er didn't care about Kong Ru's life or death, he pulled him back.
"Too noisy, so noisy."
Back at Ningchu Hospital, she gave Juner acupuncture treatment.
Because Jun'er's health had improved a lot, she inserted the needles a little deeper to make the acupuncture more effective.
Jun'er was shaking with pain and sweating profusely, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing, nor did he ask why.
Le'er was heartbroken, but she didn't think Ye Chutang did it on purpose.
After the acupuncture, Jun'er collapsed on the bed exhausted, gasping for breath.
Ye Chutang put away the needle and reminded: "Drink the medicine while it's hot."
After saying that, she went back to her boudoir to take a bath and rest.
Midnight.
Ye Chutang escaped underground and went to the national treasury.
The treasury was built right next to the imperial palace. It had a large area and high walls. It was heavily guarded with a sentry post every three steps and five steps.
There are not only gold, silver and treasures inside, but also some necessary supplies.
Food, cloth, metal, etc., to cope with possible famine and war.
Ye Chutang did not rush into the treasury. He first used his earth-related abilities from the outside to sense the situation inside.
There were unexpectedly many guards, even in the warehouse where things were stored, there were quite a few people.
"It seems that the dog emperor is afraid of being stolen, so he took precautions."
It is definitely not possible to force it through, and there is no time to plan a strategy to outsmart us, so we can only give up.
Ye Chutang would naturally not return empty-handed.
She smiled so hard that her teeth were exposed. "If you can't steal from the national treasury, then stealing from the dog emperor's private treasury is the same!"
