Chapter 940： Take risks

Chapter 940 Taking risks

Mu Jue peeled the orange, gave half of it to Jiayin, and then said, "When I came back with the roasted chicken, I wanted to take a shortcut, but the roasted chicken tasted so fragrant that it attracted a few beggars.

"I felt soft-hearted so I gave one of them and chatted for a while. As a result, the little beggars said that the abandoned yard where they often stayed had been occupied recently and was to be rebuilt, but the people who occasionally came in and out didn't look like craftsmen, and there were no Timber and stone delivered.

“I felt something was wrong, so I watched for a while, and happened to see people coming in and out.

“This man pretended to be a steward, but the way he walked and the way his left hand subconsciously rested on his waist, he looked like he was from the military.

“There are also traces of moving bricks and stones in the courtyard, and it is only two miles away from the palace wall. Maybe they really dug a tunnel and caught a ‘big rat’.

“I told a few beggars to take turns to help keep an eye on the yard. I will go see the Marquis later and ask him to arrange more manpower. Maybe there will be definite news in a few days.”

"Oh, then go quickly! Be careful that those little beggars miss the mark and miss the important event." Hearing the good news, he was happy and anxious, so he hurriedly chased them away.

Mu Jue stuffed half of the orange into his mouth and complained, "I'm afraid that the roasted chicken will get cold, so I'll bring it back to you first!"

As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Remember, you are in Zhilan Palace. If you have anything to do, don't go out. I'll be back soon!"

"Go quickly, I'm not a piece of paper. If someone is really bad for me, it's not necessarily who will be unlucky. Don't worry about me, it's the serious thing to go and help my adoptive father quickly."

Jiayin continued to chase people away, not forgetting to explain, "If those little beggars are willing, send them to the relief department and let my second uncle arrange for them to do things and learn how to support the family."

"I know, don't worry." Mu Jue was relieved. He glanced at the good news and couldn't help but feel a little mixed in his heart.

In such a big event, she did not forget to accommodate a few beggars, which shows how kind-hearted she is.

In other words, as long as anyone helps her a little, she will never forget to repay them.

There are not many girls like this in the world.

If he had been in the quagmire of hatred and was lucky enough to meet her, wouldn't all the things that made him regretful have happened...

The third princess changed into a beautiful dress and waited in the garden for a long time. Finally, when she saw Good News arriving, she couldn’t help complaining, "Good News, where have you been and why are you here!"

Jiayin took a piece of golden, fragrant and soft Shaqima and stuffed it into her mouth, and said angrily, "The palace door is closed, but I can still grow wings and fly! Hurry up and block your mouth! If it weren't for making you a fresh snack , can I delay for so long? "

The third princess took a bite and immediately smiled and praised, "Wow, this Shaqima is really delicious, but the name is a little weird. I'll give it to my father..."

Halfway through, she became discouraged again and muttered, "Forget it, don't say we can't get out. Even if I give the snacks to my father, he won't dare to eat them. The whole palace treats us like a scourge." Be on guard."

In the past few days, the fruits, vegetables, rice, food and supplies needed by Zhilan Palace were delivered outside the courtyard wall and placed in baskets.

Everyone pulled the rope to hoist the basket up, which was very troublesome.

But this avoids contact with outsiders.

Even so, people outside still avoid them like wild beasts, as if even looking at them from a distance can easily be infected with strange diseases...

Not only that, because the third princess was favored by the emperor, several concubines were very fawning to her and often visited her.

But since the palace was closed to the present, none of these people have sent anything to express condolences, as if the third princess is already dead.

I have to say that the third princess once again tasted the warmth and warmth of human relationships.

Good news doesn’t matter.

When a disaster strikes, both husband and wife can go their separate ways, not to mention they are outsiders and have nothing to do with each other in the first place.

The milk tea is mellow and the Shaqima is sweet and crispy.

After a while, the third princess felt relieved.

Including Shui Ling and Shui Yun, as well as a personal maid whom the third princess loved, and five masters and servants, they were sitting in the small garden, enjoying the breeze, chatting, eating and drinking, and they were quite comfortable. If an outsider saw this scene, their jaw would probably drop in surprise.

Zhilan Palace, which the palace and even the whole of Xindu thought was miserable, was actually living such a leisurely life...

Jiayin was thinking about Mu Jue and went back to the room early after dinner.

As a result, after waiting and waiting, it was not until the third watch that Mu Jue came back with a chill.

Jiayin quickly cooked him a bowl of beef noodle soup to warm his stomach.

The beef soup has been cooked long ago and warmed on the tea stove, and the noodles are dry noodles produced in the family's workshop, which is convenient.

Mu Jue had been running around for most of the day, and the water and rice were not yet used up. At this time, he could no longer be polite. Xili Hulu ate heartily, and finally he leaned on the soft table and said a few words.

“We guessed it right. There is indeed a tunnel in that poor courtyard, which leads to a corner of the royal garden of the palace. There is a small wooden house where tools are kept. The guard of the wooden house is an inconspicuous mute eunuch.

“If we hadn’t traced his secret contact with Shoukang Palace, we really wouldn’t have been able to discover his identity, it was too deeply hidden.

“I have also found out some people outside the palace who have corresponded with Shoukang Palace. Not talking about civil officials, you don’t know even if I talk about it, but there is a military officer, you should know.”

“Who is it?” Jiayin was extremely curious.

After all, the military power is now in the hands of the adoptive father, and the military attachés must either be used by the adoptive father or retire.

I really can’t guess who will take the risk and support the Queen Mother.

“Marquis of Zhenbei!” Mu Jue said a name, which surprised Jiayin but also felt that it was natural.

Mrs. Wen was originally his ex-wife. Mrs. Wen reconciled with him and remarried, but he always felt betrayed.

Even the military power in Jiangbei was in his hands at the beginning, but unfortunately he was not capable enough, and was finally taken over by the Marquis. After many battles, he achieved today's glory.

He will not reflect on his own faults, which is why he lost his wife and authority.

Instead, they put all the faults on others and put themselves in the position of the victim!

Such people are not uncommon.

I just didn’t expect that besides being selfish and stupid, he also had such courage!

However, if he is eager to stand up and takes desperate risks, it will be justified!

“What did the adoptive father say?” Jiayin asked.

Mu Jue yawned and responded, "The Marquis wants you to eat well and sleep well, and don't worry about this matter. With this key clue, he and the emperor plan to take the opportunity to pull out all the forces of the other party. But this may not work. The timing of the net will be postponed, perhaps until the beginning of the Northern Expedition."

Jiayin nodded, she really couldn't help with this matter.

At this time, it would be good if you don’t hold back and distract your adoptive father and family.

"Okay, then go to sleep. If you have nothing to do from now on, remember to go to your adoptive father's house. If you can help, it's better. If you can't help, you can always listen to the news."

Jiayin gave instructions, Mu Jue nodded, turned over and lay down on the couch, and started snoring almost the next moment.

Jiayin glanced at his shoes and socks and felt that there was a sour smell in the room.

After enduring it, she did not wake Mu Jue up. She just returned to the screen and entered the space directly...

Let’s not talk about Jiaren and Brother Li who are working hard for their future in the Gongyuan, nor the busy good news in the space, but only talk about the distant Quanzhou. Mrs. Li and others finally gathered a boat full of good things and arrived at the envoy’s departure. days…
