Chapter 939 A blind cat encounters a dead mouse

Jiayin was worried about how his brothers were doing in the exams. He got up early in the morning and wandered around the courtyard after dinner.

Zhilan Palace has a lot of flowers and plants, which are already a bit green at this time of year.

Several maids were carrying buckets of water, and they quickly bowed when they saw her.

Jiayin waved his hands, rolled up his sleeves to help, and passed the time.

The little maids were a little reserved at first, but gradually they found that Jiayin had no airs and was very kind.

They began to take courage and chat with the good news.

“Princess, they all say that Broken Gold Beach is a geomantic treasure land, and gold grows everywhere. Is it true?” A round-faced little palace maid looked curious and surprised, and her words made everyone smile.

Jiayin pulled up two grasses and responded with a smile, "That's right. The soil in our Broken Gold Beach is suitable for growing jade melons and golden fruits, which are particularly sweet and delicious.

“When a jade melon is the hottest, it’s really worth exchanging a silver jade melon for a jade melon. So, you can also say that Broken Gold Beach is really worth the money.”

The round-faced little palace maid obviously loves to eat, she can't help but swallow her saliva, with a look of envy on her face.

"It would be great if my slave was born in Broken Gold Beach. They say that if you put the jade melon in the well water for stabilization, when it's hottest, you can take a bite and you won't trade it for a god! It's very refreshing and very sweet."

The other little maids also nodded and agreed with smiles.

“Yes, the father-in-laws in the royal study have eaten jade melon. The emperor gave it to General Manager Yi, and General Manager Yi divided it.

"It's a pity that we are not waiting in the imperial study room."

“I heard that the jade melon has a green skin on the outside, but the inside is red. It’s so magical.”

Jiayin was never stingy, so he said, "The Broken Gold Beach is my fiefdom, and I am the one who is most in need of jade melons. Why bother envying others when you protect me."

“You take good care of the princess. In the summer, I will send some more jade melons over. Everyone in Zhilan Palace can taste how sweet the jade melons are.”

“Seriously? Thank you, Princess!”

“Thank you, Princess, Princess, that’s great!”

“Woo, can I really eat jade melon? Thank you, Princess.”

The third princess heard the noise in the house and came out to join in the fun.

The little maids instantly turned back into shrinking quails, saluted quickly, and then ran away with their buckets.

The third princess couldn't help rolling her eyes and pretending to lose her temper.

“Li Jiayin, you bribed my slaves again! Hum, if I let you live here any longer, my Zhilan Palace will become yours!”

Jiayin has lived with her for so long and is very aware of her "duplicity" problem.

So, she gave the third princess a hard look and snorted coldly, "If you say that, then I will leave the palace immediately? I can't live in a good home, so I come here to suffer with you. What a **** I am!"

The third princess immediately hugged Jiayin and laughed to please her, "No! You must stay with me. If you leave, I won't have anyone to play with!"

Jiayin slapped her arm away and said with emotion, "I miss Baozhu so much. That girl is the cutest and most obedient! I haven't seen her for a long time. If I send a letter home again, I must ask Aunt Mei to send some fruits and vegetables to Baozhu. ”

“Woo, good news, you can’t be so partial! I also want to eat fruit, no, I want to eat bananas and peaches, I can’t sleep thinking about them. The princess will reward me with some, okay?”

The third princess drooled with greed, and couldn't help but curse again, "It's all because of that old witch who acted like a monster. Even in a good life, she can't even leave the palace!"

Jiayin was afraid that what she said would be overheard by the eunuchs and maids, so she quickly changed her words.

"Forget it, if you want to eat it, just ask someone to send the message. Send the fruit to the palace and hang it with a rope!"  "This is a good idea!" The third princess immediately agreed, and when she was about to speak, Shui Ling came over and said , "Princess, Shuiyun's Shaqima failed. Please give me some advice."

The third princess entered the kitchen impatiently. When she heard this, she said, "I'll go back and change my clothes. Let's go to the small garden for snacks and tea later?"

“Okay, I’ll go take a look. Shaqima goes best with milk tea. I’ll give you a taste later!” Jiayin coaxed the third princess and quickly returned to the side hall.

Sure enough, Mu Jue was sitting on the couch in front of the window eating roast chicken. When he saw the good news coming in, he handed her a chicken thigh.

Jiayin smiled and said, "Oh, is this the time-honored roast chicken restaurant in the south of the city?"

She took a bite and asked, "My eldest brother must have done well in the exam, otherwise you wouldn't be in the mood to go so far to buy roast chicken?"

Mu Jue raised his eyebrows and his smile became more ruthless.

“The eldest young master and the sixth young master have done well in the exams and have now entered Gongyuan again. They are doing well at home. The eldest young master is giving you a spring shirt so you can wear it when you go home next time.

"Suijintan is getting ready for farming. The village chief is very busy, leading the villagers to plow the land and pick up fruit trees. My uncle asked me to tell you, don't forget to prepare melon vines."

These things are trivial, but hearing the good news makes me feel extremely relieved.

As the two of them talked, she ate all the chicken legs with great appetite.

Mu Jue then said, "When the eldest young master and the others were in Gongyuan, someone deliberately caused trouble and told them the news that Zhilan Palace was sealed.

“The Marquis and Uncle came forward and found out the perpetrators and those behind the scenes, without delaying the examinations of the eldest young master and the sixth young master.”

Sure enough, Jiayin frowned immediately. No wonder he felt that he had overlooked something before.

It turns out that someone really took advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble for the brothers.

Mu Jue poured tea for Jiayin and advised, "The people behind this are the Wen family. Mr. Wen has already dealt with it, and the Marquis has also greeted the Gongyuan people. No one will plot against the eldest young master and the sixth young master anymore.

At the end of the day, as long as your place is good, they won’t care about you or be distracted. "

Jiayin nodded, understanding the truth, but still felt uncomfortable.

“My brothers were taking exams, but I didn’t help them. On the contrary, I hindered them.”

The girl's bright face seemed to be covered with a layer of dark clouds, a little dim, which made Mu Jue feel panicked for no reason.

He wanted to persuade, but he was not good at using his words, so he had to change his words quickly.

“When I came back just now, I unexpectedly came across a big discovery. Let me tell you about it first, and then go to the Marquis to report it.”

Jiayin reluctantly cheered up, blinked her big eyes, her eyelashes flickered like small fans, and asked, "What big discovery? Is there anything new happening in Xindu?"

"No, there is a secret passage in the palace that leads to the outside. I found the tunnel exit by accident!" Mu Jue was proud, throwing the orange in his hand and laughing, "I can't find anything even if I break through iron shoes, it takes no effort at all to get here."

"Oh, please tell me how you found it? Where is the tunnel entrance?" Jiayin was very curious.

In the past few days, Shoukang Palace had closed the palace under the pretext of avoiding illness, just to do some small things in private. Therefore, not only the emperor and the marquis, but also the good news sent little foxes there for a walk, just to find the queen mother. The problem.

Whether she is secretly contacting the outside world or has other arrangements.

Unfortunately, nothing was gained.

Unexpectedly, Mu Jue went out once and unexpectedly encountered a dead mouse and solved the problem by accident!
