Chapter 14 Bribery
It was the autumn of the 17th year of King Yushou, at the first moment of Maoshi on the second day of August, and the sky had not yet brightened.

On the outskirts of Duke Wei's palace complex, there were more than a dozen young eunuchs gathered on the path outside the Internal Affairs Prison, whispering to themselves.If you look carefully, you can find that among the dozen or so people, there is a young eunuch who is Huazi from Qingyang Palace.

At that time, Huazi was secretly stuffing a small bag of coins to the other oldest eunuch, and said in a low voice, "This is the Xiaomu I mentioned to you yesterday. He just entered the palace and was assigned to us. In Princess Ying’s palace, I’m missing my family now, and I want to go out to visit relatives, so I’d like to ask Eunuch Tian to make it easier.”

Eunuch Tian took the purse and weighed it lightly, then nodded in satisfaction.

He looked at a little eunuch standing behind Huazi with his head deeply bowed, and said in a low voice: "Xiaomu, father-in-law, I have to tell you in advance that it is not a problem for me to take you out, but it is just that at today's Shenshi In the past, you had to wait at the place we agreed on, and you must not miss the hour, do you understand?"

The little eunuch behind Huazi didn't raise his head, but replied in a dull voice: "Yes, I understand, Eunuch Tian."

"Okay, let's go." Eunuch Tian nodded in satisfaction, raised his voice to greet him, and walked to the east of the passage together with a dozen or so eunuchs except Huazi.

After everyone turned around, the little eunuch behind Huazi finally raised his head, and it looked like Wei Ying.She patted Hua Zi on the shoulder and said with a low laugh: "Okay, Hua Zi, thank you for your hard work, you should go back quickly."

Huazi's face turned bitter, and he asked in a low voice worriedly: "Princess, is it really okay for you to go out alone?"

Just yesterday, Wei Ying claimed that Huazi was going to bribe the little eunuch in the internal affairs supervisor who was in charge of going out of the palace to buy daily necessities, and let them sneak out of the palace with her. All the attendants in Qingyang Palace naturally disagreed and spoke out Stop Wei Ying.

But what Wei Ying decided could not be stopped by them?In the end, it was Yu'er who begged Wei Ying pitifully, saying that if she sneaked out of the palace, the emperor would never spare them servants in Qingyang Palace.

Wei Ying said with a smile that she had prepared for a long time, and then gave Yu'er a letter, asking her to deliver the letter to his wife Xiao Shi, and Xiao Shi would naturally protect them.

All the servants in Qingyang Palace were speechless, and they dared not speak again, otherwise, if Wei Ying got angry, they would bear Wei Ying's anger in vain, and Wei Ying would still go out.

"Ah, ah!" Wei Ying was in a good mood when she thought of the wonderful world outside, she waved her hand to Hua Zi with a smile, and said in a low voice: "When I lived in my grandfather's house, I was not alone all day long. Go out to play, what's the matter, go back quickly, I'm leaving!"

After finishing speaking, she turned around in a hurry, tidied up the small bundle on her shoulders and a sword hidden in her loose clothes, lowered her head and covered her face with the brim of her hat, and quickly chased after the little eunuch who was in charge of internal affairs.

Huazi watched the group of people including Wei Ying disappear into the darkness in the distance, sighed softly, turned around and walked back and forth helplessly.

As he walked, he couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "Who does a princess like this look like? Mrs. Xiao is such a stable and dignified person..."

The morning sun was slowly rising from the sky, but it could not shine into this deep and narrow alley for a short time. The darkness engulfed all the figures at both ends of the alley, and in vain there was only the sound of light footsteps indicating that someone was passing by here.
