Nongmen's clever daughter-in-law: hook a general and give birth to a cub

Chapter 147 The Ghostly Old Eunuch

As soon as the words fell, I heard something crawling on the ground, suddenly!

"Your Majesty, the servant finally caught you, you should let the servant out quickly!"

The ankle was grabbed by one hand, Du Yao didn't even dare to take a breath, she could only stand there stiffly, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and her heart beat faster.

"You dog slave, you dare to scare the guests of Ai's house, do you not want to live?"

The queen mother's reprimand made the hand loosen, and a black shadow quickly retreated into the corner, huddled into a ball, trembling all the time.

Shhh!
Seeing that she was going to say something again, Du Yao quickly put up a finger near her mouth to make a mute gesture, and then cautiously approached the shadow.

"What are you afraid of? Why do you want to leave here? Is someone trying to harm you?"

While asking softly, she propped her knees and squatted down, "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I came from outside the palace."

"Outside the palace?"

Shadow raised his head from between his arms, and looked at Du Yao with a pair of sparkling eyes, "Did you really come from outside the palace? Did you take me out? Take me away quickly, I beg you Now, even if it's for you to be a cow or a horse, I really don't want to stay in the palace."

"why?"

Closing the distance between the two, he sat next to him, "There are so many bad people out there, and you have no way to survive. What else can you do if you leave the palace? Why don't you stay with the Queen Mother and enjoy the blessings?" Isn't it just asking for trouble if you want to go outside to suffer?"

An incomplete eunuch would be laughed at even if he was released from the palace.

In other words, after so many years of fighting, the life of ordinary people is not as good as every year. If you pay attention a little bit, you don't earn enough silver taels. When winter comes, the whole family will be frozen to death. It's very pitiful. .

The vermilion-lacquered palace gate separates two worlds.

On the one hand, there are wine pools and meat forests, singing and dancing, and even a small court lady and eunuch can earn a living without worrying about how to live.

On the other side, even in the capital city that everyone yearns for, people are still starving and dying everywhere. If there were not good people who opened food warehouses, more people would die.

"Even if I die outside, even if I starve to death and freeze to death, I will never stay in this man-eating palace, please, please take me out!"

Shadow suddenly became very excited, and grabbed Du Yao's arm, "Girl, I can tell at a glance that you are a kind-hearted person, and you will not die without help. As long as you are willing to take me away, I can do anything. "

"Really anything?"

Knowing that the outside world is difficult and dangerous, but still wanting to leave the palace, it is obvious that there is something more terrifying lurking in the palace, which makes him so abnormal.

"Okay," Du Yao squeezed her chin, and said thoughtfully, "It's not that this girl doesn't want to take you out, it's just that everything must be fair, I gave you benefits, what benefits can you give me ?”

"I...I have no money."

"I don't want money!"

The big fish has already taken the bait, Du Yao immediately took the fishing line, "Just tell me, what exactly did you see in the queen's palace more than 20 years ago!?"

As soon as the words came out, the shadow suddenly jumped up from the ground, "I didn't see anything, I really didn't see anything, there is nothing there!"

"Since there is nothing, I can't send you out of the palace."

Du Yao didn't chase after and beat her up, but used a soft policy, "There is no good thing to exchange, and there is no need for this girl to risk her life to save you."

After all, the man stood up from the ground, patted the dust stuck to his clothes, and walked out the door.

"do not want!"

Being grabbed by the arm again, this guy's strength is really great, "You have to promise me, as long as I tell you everything I saw, you will be able to send me out of the palace safely, and you won't kill me. "

"of course."

There was a joyful smile on the corner of her mouth, and she blinked at the queen mother again, "I am a good friend of the queen mother, as long as I say a word, the queen mother will definitely send someone to escort you out of the palace, and give you enough money to spend the rest of your life. This is a rare opportunity."

The shadow didn't talk to her, and her breathing became heavier.

"it is good!"

A word, as if squeezed out from between the teeth, with all my strength.

"Please start your show."

Du Yao pulled the hand on her arm, pulled the person out of the darkness, and carefully looked at the person in front of her. It really can be described as terrible.

The white hair covered half of his face, the exposed eyes were empty and lifeless, the clothes on his body were torn and old, and his body was as thin as a skeleton. I really don't know how he survived these years, it must have been very hard.

"Empress Dowager, please order someone to bring some food."

"Damn girl, you dare to order the old ancestor, you really think you are..."

"Medicine! Shut up!"

The Queen Mother glared at Si Yao, then turned around and walked towards the small kitchen, "Look at what ingredients we have here, let's make everything we can."

Every half a month, the imperial dining room will send vegetables and fruits. Even the horseshoe cake and the high-quality Dahongpao tea, which the ancestors liked most, were ordered by the queen to prohibit sending them here. housekeeping.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is nothing more than deliberately making things difficult.

"Old Ancestor, why do you care so much about that little girl? It's just a wild girl with no background, she can be blown out of the capital directly."

"Aijia does things, when will I explain to you?"

The Empress Dowager accused displeasedly, Si Yao scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, and followed her master, "Old Ancestor, I know you don't want to listen to me, but this servant always thinks that woman named Du Yao is not simple."

After one step and three turns, the wooden door has been closed from the inside.

"Little Shuanzi has been trapped in the wooden house for so many years. No matter who asks, she can't ask anything. But it only took her a moment to pry her mouth open."

Si Yao is no longer the little maid she used to be, and in two months, she will be forty. Although she is not married and has children, she is very experienced for her age.

But even so, there is no way to take the little embolus all the time.

"Think about it, if she is really an ordinary peasant girl, how could she..."

"In extraordinary times, only extraordinary means can be used."

The Empress Dowager stood at the door of the small kitchen and summoned the maids and eunuchs who were in charge of cooking, "It's good to cook a table of meals. If you dare to be a little sloppy, don't blame Aijia for driving you all out and telling you to serve the queen!"

"The slaves obey the order."

"The slave obeys the order."
