Chapter 69 Entering the Palace

"Hehe, the future is long."

Li Langzhong said with a smile.

"I'm going to invite the lady right now."

Butler Li saw that Defu had brought breakfast, so he said goodbye and was about to go.

"Butler Li, let's eat something together. Miss is still awake at this point."

Defu, brought over a big bag of bulging steamed buns and biscuits.

"Okay, let's eat something together."

Butler Li paused, thought for a while, and sat down.

He first gave Li Langzhong a sesame seed cake, and then gave Defu a steamed bun, so he ate it on his own.

after a little while.

"Okay, miss, it's time to get up at this point, you guys eat slowly."

Butler Li wiped his hands, then turned and left.

After a while, Zeng Xiaoxiao came over.

This was the earliest time she got up after time travel, and even Defu was stunned.

"Good morning, miss."

"morning."

Zeng Xiaoxiao nodded in response to Defu, and then sat in front of Li Langzhong.

"You guys go down first, I have something to say with Li Langzhong."

Zeng Xiaoxiao waved his hand to signal them to go down.

After seeing them leave, Zeng Xiaoxiao deliberately lowered her voice.

"Li Langzhong, you came here so early, did something happen?"

The concern in Zeng Xiaoxiao's eyes warmed Li Langzhong's eyes.

Then, he spoke eloquently.

"Last night, someone locked the door of my room and set fire outside. My residence has already been burned down."

Li Langzhong smiled wryly, and then he was relieved.

"Fortunately, my books are all right."

Li Langzhong sighed.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

Seeing Li Langzhong coming so early, Zeng Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong.

She didn't expect Concubine Jing to strike so fast and so ruthlessly.

It seems that this time it really violated her interests.

"The old man is fine, the old man is in good health."

In order to comfort Zeng Xiaoxiao, Li Langzhong even laughed.

"That person failed to kill the old man, the old man's life is hard."

"It's my fault that I accidentally dragged you into the water, and let you follow us to suffer this kind of danger."

Seeing Li Langzhong's optimistic look, Zeng Xiaoxiao felt very guilty.

It was unexpected to bring Li Langzhong in.

Concubine Jing has many eyes and ears. It seems that when she and Mu Chuqian left the palace, they were discovered.

"It's okay, I still have a chance to repay the Queen's life-saving grace in this life, I have to thank you."

Li Langzhong's expression is sincere, and every word is true.

"Do you see who set the fire?"

Zeng Xiaoxiao hoped to find some clues. When the time comes to expose Concubine Jing, there will be more evidence.

"No."

Li Langzhong thought carefully about what happened last night. He was locked in the room and saw nothing.

"It's okay, we can find the problem from other places."

Li Langzhong comforted him.

"They definitely didn't expect that you escaped."

Zeng Xiaoxiao was thoughtful.

"Wait a while, Mu Chuqian will come over, I will dress up for you, and we will enter the palace together to see the queen."

"The old man obeys the arrangement."

Not long after, Mu Chuqian arrived as promised.

Sending roast duck to the palace is usually at eight in the morning.

"Miss, the Second Prince has arrived."

Defu ran over excitedly, he thought that the second prince was looking for a date with the young lady again.

So there is no good intention in the smile.

"Okay, Telford, you go down."

Zeng Xiaoxiao looked at the happy Defu, and immediately understood this little thing. He must be thinking about it again.

"Miss, don't you need me to wait on you?"

Telford wanted to pour water and serve tea or something.

Unexpectedly, Zeng Xiaoxiao rejected him directly.

"no need."

"Oh, well, miss, then I'll be busy with other things."

Telford looked disappointed.

In the imperial city, the second prince's record is outstanding, he is a young hero, and he is the object of everyone's admiration.

Especially Defu, he even worships the second prince as an idol, every time he sees the second prince coming to the mansion, he is overjoyed, and often secretly happy to be able to work in Zhongwang's mansion.

And the second prince didn't let him down, he often found excuses to come to Zhongwangfu when he had nothing to do.

"Xiao Xiao, Li Langzhong."

Mu Chuqian was a little surprised to see that Li Langzhong was already in Prince Zhong's Mansion.

Logically speaking, isn't Li Langzhong in the medical clinic?
how?

Just when Mu Chuqian was confused.

Zeng Xiaoxiao quickly explained the ins and outs.

"Hmph, the action of disregarding human life is really fast."

Mu Chuqian snorted coldly.

"I'll make her pay."

Mu Chuqian showed a ruthless expression and clenched his fists.

For a while, Zeng Xiaoxiao couldn't understand why Mu Chuqian was so excited.

"I'll dress you up, and I'll follow Defu into the palace to deliver roast ducks later."

"Telford?"

Li Langzhong was puzzled.

"Telford is a capable young man. I specially asked him to exercise and learn a lot."

Just as he was talking, Defu suddenly appeared.

"Miss, are you calling me?"

As if following the wind, Defu rushed over upon hearing the sound.

"Send roast duck today, you bring the three of us."

Zeng Xiaoxiao ordered.

"Take you? Do you still need me?"

Telford asked in surprise.

"Hey, don't ask too much, it's not good for you if you know too much. In short, you just take us in, and don't let others find out our identities,"

Zeng Xiaoxiao didn't want to explain so much, time was running out, and it would be too late if she didn't leave.

"Okay, miss, at your command."

"Ah."

In this way, a group of people disguised themselves as delivery boys and arrived at the gate of the palace.

Like last time, they were again questioned by the palace guards.

"who?"

"Master Jun, I'm Prince Zhong's Mansion. I'm sending roast ducks to all the ladies. Please do me a favor and be accommodating."

Defu's voice came.

"I'm going to check inside."

The guards ignored him and forced to open the curtain of the carriage.

"My lord, my lord stay here."

It was obvious that Telford was already in a hurry.

Zeng Xiaoxiao was extremely nervous.

Although they have disguised themselves as servants, once they are discovered, they will never be able to enter the palace at all with Concubine Jing's means.

"Don't say so much."

While speaking, a guard with a knife came to the carriage.

He opened the curtain, and the air froze immediately.

Surprisingly, the guard just glanced inside, then paused for three seconds, then lowered the curtain.

"Okay, let's go in."

The guards did not question the people inside the sedan chair, but let them go directly.

"My lord, this is to honor you."

Defu took out a roast duck and handed it to the inspecting guard.

"no, I'm fine."

The guard repeatedly refused.

"Master, this is your favorite food, why don't you want it today?"

Seeing that the guard was so polite, Defu forced it to him.

"If I say no, I won't."

The guard sternly refused.

Hearing the argument outside, Mu Chuqian was afraid of causing big trouble, so he went out.

Zeng Xiaoxiao didn't even have time to call him.

I saw Mu Chuqian winking at the guard.

"Okay, then I accept it."

The guard glanced at Mu Chuqian, lowered his head and accepted it.

"Thank you, Lord Jun, for letting me go."

Telford thanked, and then drove the carriage in.

"Miss, when you enter the palace later, carriages are not allowed to pass, so we can only put the carriages in the corner of the imperial dining room."

Telford got into the carriage and reminded the three people.

"Okay, I see."

Zeng Xiaoxiao responded.

"Wait a while, the three of us will go to the Queen's Palace to deliver the roast duck."

"No, three people, it's too ostentatious."

Mu Chuqian quickly refused.

"Or, you and Li Langzhong, I will find a way to hold Concubine Jing."

Mu Chuqian thought for a while, then said.

"But, but you alone."

Zeng Xiaoxiao couldn't help feeling a little worried.

If Concubine Jing meets Mu Chuqian, she will definitely not let him go easily.

"Are you worried about me?"

Mu Chuqian laughed, out of tune with this tense atmosphere.
