Uncle, don't overdo it

The two masters and servants carried their bedrolls overnight and carried their belongings to the hut at the corner of the backyard that Ximen Jingxuan had mentioned.

That room was really small, sitting alone in the corner of the courtyard, out of tune with the pond and small bridge passing in front of it, it was a small room equivalent to a pile of sundries.

Pushing open the door, the dust blows in, there are sticks and other things on the ground, and you will trip over if you are not careful. The unknown sundries leaning against the wall occupy most of the room, and there is no place to shelter The place.

Such a house cannot be directly lived in, and it has to be tidied up after dawn.

"Miss, what should I do?" Yan'er didn't know what to do.

Lin Xiner looked around, the sky was already dark, and there was faint candlelight in the yard not far away.

"That should be Madam Zhiqi's residence, right?" Lin Xiner said, she remembered that was where the female corpse appeared, "Let's go there and have a look."

Yan'er followed Lin Xiner to the gate of Mrs. Zhiqi's courtyard, the door was closed tightly, Yan'er stepped forward and knocked.

After a while, a maid came out and opened the door. Seeing that it was Lin Xiner, she hurried in to welcome her in.

"My concubine's body here can't compare to Plum Blossom Court, it's very rough, don't be disgusted by the princess."

Mrs. Zhiqi knew that Lin Xiner had just been reprimanded, so she invited her to the soft couch, and said very politely.

This is the first time Lin Xiner has met Mrs. Zhiqi, and she is as expected from the information she has obtained. She is gentle and generous, and she is worthy of being a person who comes from the side of the empress in the palace. She behaves calmly and decently, and she should be regarded as a virtuous wife. look.It's just that it seems that he hasn't recovered from the shock of the previous few days, and his complexion is a little weak.

"What's Madam Zhiqi talking about? Yan'er also said just now that I was relegated to a corner room in the backyard, and I'm nowhere near your place." Lin Xiner said.

"Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger. It's the same with the prince. Occasional punishment is unavoidable. When the prince's anger subsides, the princess will still be the master of the Plum Blossom Garden." Mrs. Zhiqi said.

"Thank you Madam." Lin Xin'er smiled, this Madam Zhiqi's speech is really measured, but no woman who can enter the gate of Prince Xuan's Mansion is not easy behind her back.Especially women who serve the same man, they should listen to them in reverse.

"The concubine thinks that the concubine is speaking against her will?" Mrs. Zhiqi said, "The concubine was the first to come to Prince Xuan's mansion under the orders of the empress. Just let the concubine serve the prince, the concubine knows her origin, unlike Mrs. Shui Qing in the Shangshu Mansion and Mrs. Mei, the princess of the Yuehua Kingdom, it is my duty to serve my master with all my heart. One is already a mighty Hong En, and I have never imagined anything else."

"Sometimes even if you don't think too much, good things will come. If the wife gives birth to a son and a half daughter for the prince, and the mother is more expensive than the son, how can you live a poor life in the future?" Lin Xiner said casually.

"Children? A concubine is never extravagant." Mrs. Zhiqi smiled lightly.

Lin Xiner saw that there was a bit of helplessness hidden in Madam Zhiqi's smile, did she not have extravagant demands, or did she have to give up knowing that she couldn't get it?

After a few words, the two both excused their physical discomfort to rest.

Early in the morning, Yan'er insisted on applying medicine to Lin Xiner's wound before letting her get up. The two said goodbye to Mrs. Zhiqi, and came to the side house, only to see Yang Chen was already waiting there, the house was covered After a simple tidying up, all the things inside were moved to the side of the house, and a few wider wooden boards were picked to support two wooden beds, and a simple table was nailed and placed inside the house.

"That's right, thank you, the lord, for being so considerate. You didn't let us, the master and the servant, struggle. Otherwise, we don't know how long it will take." Lin Xiner circled around the room, clapping her hands.

"Since there is nothing wrong with the princess, I will take my leave." Yang Chen cupped his hands.

Lin Xiner didn't say a word. If she said that she wanted to build this place into the Plum Blossom Garden, would it be a problem?

After Yang Chen left, Yan'er had to go to the dining room for dinner after making the bed, leaving Lin Xiner to secretly recruit Yueyao, and Xingyao also followed.

At this time, she was in the remote part of Prince Xuan's Mansion, close to the courtyard wall of the Palace. Compared with the Plum Blossom Court, it was more convenient to do things.

This is why Lin Xiner deliberately led Ximen Jingxuan to drive her here. The backyard is close to the edge of the palace, which is more convenient for meeting.It's just that Ximen Jingxuan's decision was more ruthless than she expected. Originally, she thought that Ximen Jingxuan would let her live in the place where Mrs. Shui Qing lived, but Ximen Jingxuan ordered her to live in this dilapidated house .

"Why, have you found out all the news?" Lin Xiner didn't expect Xing Yao to return so soon, and asked suspiciously.

"No." As Lin Xiner expected, Xing Yao shook her head.

"When my subordinates investigated the matter between Yuehua Kingdom and Xiaoyaohou, they encountered great resistance. They led people from Shuiyue Palace to carefully investigate every suspicious place, but every time they found clues, After being destroyed by others, several days passed, and the subordinates made no progress." Xingyao said with some frustration, nothing that Shuiyue Palace always wanted to investigate could not be found, it was only a matter of time, but this time it was unexpected It's so difficult, the other party seems to have grasped their every step and can set up defenses in advance.

"There is such a thing?" Lin Xiner was also very surprised. Shuiyue Palace has been doing business in the Jianghu for so many years, and has never failed, including this time when she personally went out to sneak into Prince Xuan's mansion. She must find the imperial doctor, Shuiyue Palace The reputation cultivated over the years is not in vain.

However, this time they encountered such a big resistance?Who is the opponent?

"In this case, stop the action first." Lin Xiner said, she is not a stubborn person, she knows that she can advance or retreat, and there is no constant success. Anyway, she is still connected with Ximen Jingyu and the mysterious master of Yuehua Kingdom. The line is also a breakthrough.

"Yes." Xing Yao said.

"I am now sure that the imperial doctor is not in the palace, but in the hands of Ximen Jingxuan, most likely in Prince Xuan's Mansion." Lin Xiner said, this is the purpose of her finding Yueyao.

"In Prince Xuan's Mansion?" Yueyao was a little surprised, but she didn't expect the matter to be a coincidence.

"Yes." Lin Xiner nodded, "So, we have to focus on this, and we won't be able to use Ximen Jingxuan as a target."

"But Prince Xuan's attitude towards the Young Palace Master is very bad, and he is not easy to get close to." Yueyao said.Although it was rumored that King Xuan doted on the concubine, they themselves knew how King Xuan used him to treat the Young Palace Master.It's not easy to get close to King Xuan, not to mention the fact that the young palace lord was expelled from the Plum Blossom Court, the rumors of being favored before will definitely change.

Moreover, compared with the imperial palace, Prince Xuan's mansion is more difficult to carry out operations because of King Xuan's presence, and it is even more difficult to discover the secrets of the palace.This is the reason why it is rumored that one King Xuan can guard the entire southern border, just because there are more King Xuan, everything becomes more difficult.If the relationship with Prince Xuan is not good, or even regarded as a thorn in the side, it will be even more difficult to do things, and the danger will be greater.
