Chapter 5 Integrity First
However, Xiang Toon got into Gongsun's mansion, and Bai Ji got into Shen's mansion.

Xiang Toon took cover near the window, looked at Lu Chaoyan who had been sitting in the study for a whole day, and was full of displeasure while drinking tea while reading.

Bai Ji hid in the corner, looking at Shen Lili who was in a hurry, and immediately felt that following her was a little insulting.Shen Lili stared wide-eyed, holding the needle in his left hand and the thread in his right hand, his hands were trembling, and he wanted to go through it.Looking at Shen Lili who was so clumsy, he once suspected that this needlework was really so difficult.

As the sun was setting, the toon was leaning against a tree with a piece of grass in its mouth. The more he looked at it, the more impatient he became; Bai Ji stood behind the rockery, listening to Shen Lili sighing for a long time.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the two walked towards their respective mansions and met again on the way.

Xiang Toon couldn't stand not saying a word for a long time, and Lu Chaoyan, who didn't hear anything outside the window, stopped Bai Ji.

She said in a commanding tone: "You, at this hour every day, at this place, tell me everything your Lord Marquis does, who you meet, and what you say! Did you hear that?"

Bai Ji felt that Xiang Toon was sick, "boring." As he was about to leave, Xiang Toon grabbed his hand, "Oh! I haven't finished talking yet! I will tell you everything about my young lady at this hour! Save the two of us staring at boring people every day."

What Xiang Toon said about Bai Ji was indeed a bit emotional, but who knew if she was lying to herself? "How can I trust you?"

She took out a token from her body and handed it to Bai Ji: "As a trust, exchange each other's waist tokens, that's fine!"

He glanced at the token in her hand with disdain and contempt, took out his waist badge from his body, and exchanged it with Xiang Toon, "If you dare to lie to me, you will know what will happen."

After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Back in the mansion, Xiang Toon looked at the embroidery in Shen Lili's hands, her jaw almost dropped in shock, "Miss, did you embroider this?" Take the initiative to embroider, and embroider so well! "It's only the first day, the young lady has such a skill, and within a few days, she will be able to compete with the madam!"

Shen Lili looked at the cow's head that she embroidered was wrong, and the flowers that were stumbling around, looked at the toon with a dark face, "Actually...you don't need to flatter, I know that my embroidery is ugly..."

She lowered her head in self-knowledge in shame, but Xiang Toon held her hands and said very affectionately: "Miss, you have never wanted to see these things appear in your yard since you were a child, and today you not only allow them to come in, And it's embroidered like this...Slaves...I'm really touched!"

Xiang Toon tried hard to squeeze out tears, but no matter how hard she tried, it was useless. Shen Lili let out a "huh", shook off her hand, and asked the business, "What's the situation with Lu Chaoyan?"

"Oh, that idiot! I just read a book in the study for a day and didn't do anything else. It's very boring!"

"Oh." She picked up the handkerchief and changed the topic, "How is the embroidery? To be honest."

"It's extremely ugly." But afraid of hurting Shen Lili's young heart, Xiang Chun immediately added, "But the young lady has the courage to try, the courage is commendable!"

It is she who wants to tell the truth, and she cannot be blamed for being a slave.

After listening, he was not angry, but just sat down with a sad face, which puzzled Xiang Toon.

"Miss, what's the matter with you?" I thought, maybe it's because I didn't bring back the news she wanted, so I'm so depressed?
She waved her hands weakly, and said: "Do you know what the letter Uncle Yang sent to Mother today is?"

"The slave does not know."

This matter was well-hidden throughout the whole house, and she couldn't find out anything about it.

"Ah." She was lost in thought as she watched the butterflies flying in the yard, thinking about how to avoid unnecessary trouble with Meng Wanzhou.If she didn't help her today, there will be no tragedy of extermination in the future.

But if he wants to take refuge in Gongsun, the great backer, what method should he use more effectively?After thinking about it, she made a big decision!

In the name of Mrs. Shen, go to Gongsun Mansion to visit Mrs. Gongsun!

But the idea is very good, the reality is very skinny, her mother and Mrs. Gongsun have never met, how to solve it?
The two were talking, when the housekeeper suddenly appeared with an order, "Miss, madam has an order, stay at the house for the next two days, don't go out." Before Shen Lili could ask, the housekeeper left.

"Uncle Yang has made a mistake again, and he can't even explain it clearly!" Xiang Toon was more anxious than Shen Lili, and angrily spat at the butler's back.

In the outskirts, a group of troops is marching in the direction of the capital.

"Princess, it's a long and bumpy journey to make peace with Xiguo this time. Let's stop and rest for a while." Zhu Lan was riding a horse in front, slowed down, and respectfully said to the people in the carriage.

It took a long time for a voice to come from the carriage, "How long will it take to arrive in the capital?" The girl sitting in the carriage is dressed gorgeously and is the most favored princess on the grassland. Na Tuya, the person she is going to marry is the future of the Western Kingdom. emperor.

Zhu Lan glanced into the distance, "It will probably take another day." The voice in the carriage recalled again, "This western country is no better than the grasslands. I don't know what kind of dangers there will be on the road. Don't delay, order to go down and speed up the journey!" That picture Ya was afraid of something going wrong on the road, so she didn't dare to delay for a moment.

"Subordinates understand!" After Zhu Lan got the order, he shouted at the soldiers, "Princess has orders, speed up the schedule! Make no mistakes!"

The place where the army passed was dusty and the wind was howling. The soldiers continued to move forward in the cold wind, and they didn't know when they would reach the capital.

Although the Lantern Festival was greatly affected by the incident of Meng Wanzhou falling into the water, some people still continued to play near the cruise ship in order to commemorate the annual festival, regardless of the officers and soldiers' orders.

In the middle of the night, supper has been banned in the capital, and there are only people on the street who are in charge of patrolling, except for the watchmen.

Two black shadows shuttled through the night, they cleverly avoided the patrolling people, and arrived at the Gongsun Mansion.

"Miss, can this plan work?" Xiang Toon leaned against the wall with his hands against the wall, looking around worriedly.

"Why not?" Shen Lili was full of confidence in his plan, and when no one found out, he climbed over the wall and entered Gongsun's mansion.

According to the news brought back by Xiang Toon, the two easily turned into Lu Chaoyan's yard.There was a faint light in the room, and two people could be vaguely seen in the room, and they knew it was Lu Chaoyan and Bai Ji without guessing.

"Go." Shen Lili specially brought the drug from the pharmacy, and he didn't believe that they couldn't get rid of them.

But just as she inserted the bamboo tube and blew, she found that the smoke didn't go in, but instead sprayed her face.

Someone blocked the bamboo pipe hole!

"Miss!"
