Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 136: The Secret (3)
Her lips twitched, and she said with difficulty: "Xiangzi said, she will definitely not go back to Mei's house at this time. If you need Xiangzi to do something, just ask."

Qiu Yebai looked at her, with a faint smile: "It seems that Miss Xiangzi is more knowledgeable about current affairs than I thought, then our deal has been concluded, Ben Qianzao will protect your safety in Huainan until we have to go back. Capital, as for the price you have to pay, Ben Senza will tell you when the time comes."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Yebai stood up and told Zhou Yu: "Take out my luggage, and leave it here to Miss Xiangzi."

Zhou Yu nodded immediately, and went to pack Qiu Yebai's luggage.

When Qiu Yebai walked out the door, she paused, and looked at Mei Xiangzi again: "And from today onwards, there will be no Miss Mei Xiangzi here, only the servant girl Xiaoxiang who is serving by Ben Qianzuo."

Mei Xiangzi was taken aback, is she going to be a maid?

She is a majestic young lady...

Qiu Yebai saw that Mei Xiangzi was struggling, without any movement or response, so she snorted slightly: "Of course, Miss Xiangzi can also choose to continue to go back to Mei's house to be a young lady who is waiting to be married. You need to lower your dignity to be a girl of a fourth-rank official."

After finishing speaking, she turned and left, Zhou Yu hurriedly followed, and closed the door of the cabin, leaving only Mei Xiangzi standing in the cabin in a daze.

After following Qiu Yebai out, Zhou Yu hesitated for a while and said in a low voice: "Sir, do you want to live in the subordinate's room?"

His cabin is a little worse than Qiuyebai's cabin, but it is also one of the best cabins here except for Qiuyebai's cabin.

Qiu Yebai was not polite, and let Zhou Yu carry his things into the cabin.

After Zhou Yu asked Xiao Yanzi to tidy things up for her, he brought a pot of tea over to serve her, and then said with some hesitation: "My lord, Miss Mei, this subordinate feels that taking her is not a matter after all. , if you let Xin catch the handle, I am afraid that we will all cause trouble, then Mei Su is not a good friend."

Qiu Yebai sat by the side of the boat, sipped tea and said leisurely: "You think I don't know, but Mei Xiangzi is already on our boat, I'm afraid it will not be easy to let her go down, let alone you know Mei Su is not a good friend, I am afraid that it will not be too long, at the latest tonight, he will know that Mei Xiangzi is still on our boat."

At that time, she just risked Mei Xiangzi hiding under the lifeboat, which was regarded as a blind spot at the time, but as long as she thought about it afterwards, she could still think of places that were not searched on the whole ship, not to mention the pier. It was sponsored by the Mei family's business, and I don't know how many Mei family's eyeliners, he only needs to check carefully to guess that Mei Xiangzi is probably still on her boat.

"Since he can guess that Mei Xiangzi is on our boat, he will definitely come after him. If we send Mei Xiangzi away, Mei Xiangzi is also stubborn. If something happens along the way, instead It brought things to an impasse." Qiu Yebai thought she was still a bit judgmental, Mei Xiangzi ran out this time, if she sent her back, maybe the girl would throw herself into the water or commit suicide. If something else is born, things will get out of hand.

Zhou Yu was stunned, his eyes flashed: "So why don't you just keep her, maybe you can keep Meisu in check in the future?"

Qiu Yebai glanced at him sideways, raised the corners of her lips, and kicked his calf: "You are not stupid, but we'd better sail along the river, let the boatman hurry to Huainan, and avoid Meisu. The chasing soldiers are one day at a time, so don’t confront him head-on if it’s not necessary.”

Zhou Yu laughed dryly and scratched his head. He knew Mr. Qian was talking about the stupid things he drove out before.

"By the way, when we get to the place, don't let those under your command cause any big troubles, just maintain that kind of foolishness." Qiu Yebai suddenly changed the subject and ordered.

Zhou Yu was stunned, a little unresponsive: "My lord, didn't you just train them to look like a factory guard before you went out, why..."

Qiu Yebai smiled slightly, his eyes were full of unpredictable light: "Ben Qianza has his own reasons."

The boatmen were ordered by Qiu Yebai and rewarded by Zhou Yu. Naturally, they worked very hard and did not rest at night. They arranged three groups of people to row desperately in turns. The boat that Meisu chased that night was thrown away by a lot.

And Mei Xiangzi finally figured it out after being locked up in the room for a day and a night. The next day, she simply washed up and came over dressed as a boat lady to greet Qiu Yebai.

Qiu Yebai looked at her quiet and well-behaved look with her head down, and admired her flexibility, and didn't make too much trouble, but gave her a pill, let her melt in the water and wash her face, so that her pink and delicate face It turned dark yellow in an instant, and her original beauty was reduced to only five points, and she looked like a prettier girl in the house.

At the same time, he also ordered Xiao Yanzi to teach her a girl, even a big girl, what to do for her master on weekdays.

Although Mei Xiangzi was reluctant to learn from a young eunuch whom she looked down upon, she was willing to obediently obey Yanzi's orders only after Qiu Yebai was about to throw her overboard again.

Royal Palace
Green tiles and glazed, deep palace walls.

The summer is hot, and the Empress Dowager Lafayette recently moved to the Qingliang Waterside Pavilion to escape the heat. The originally slightly remote Waterside Pavilion has become much more lively.

"The Empress Dowager Lafayette has been in good health recently, and it will enter the dog days in a few days. Even so, don't use too many ice bowls, so as not to hurt your body's harmony and cause gastrointestinal disorders." The doctor of the Tai Hospital is a 40-year-old doctor. A middle-aged man of many years, with a high nose, a square mouth, and a short beard, he looked quite energetic. While putting away his pulse pillow, he respectfully said to the Queen Mother.

The queen mother nodded, and asked lightly: "Yes, the emperor's health has improved recently. Ai's family saw that it was too hot in Qianning Palace. Why not let His Majesty move to a cooler place."

Hearing this, the doctor looked helpless and sighed: "Queen Dowager Lafayette, Your Majesty's health improved a little after the spring, but because the maids in the palace took good care of her, some old illnesses became worse after the summer. Recurrence, but now it is not good to move, the old minister still wants to ask Lafayette to advise His Majesty a little bit."

The so-called good service means that the emperor favored women more frequently, which led to the relapse of old diseases, but even so, there was still no good news, and even if there was good news, those empresses would not be able to keep them later.

The empress dowager is over fifty but still looks as beautiful as a woman in her 30s. An angry look flashed across her face, and she snorted coldly: "They are all coquettish girls, and the empress is really useless. She only knows how to eat fast and chant Buddha. Even my own men can't stand it, how could the Du family produce such useless things."
