At night, a figure came to the east palace through the streets and alleys. With the percussion of the copper ring, after a while, a crack opened in the heavy gate, and the old guard's head came out. He obviously knew the comer. Without asking, he opened the door and let him come in, and took him to a room with light.

The Porter said respectfully, "Your Highness, the bodyguard is here."

After a long silence, a voice came from the room, "let him in."

Bodyguard Fang walked in cautiously. There was charcoal burning in the room, warm as spring. There was no cold outside at all. He looked at Yu Huai, who was sitting on the table and looking at the memorial, and said in a soft voice, "I've seen your Highness the prince."

Yu Huai put down the fold in his hand, looked up and said, "have you been there?"

Bodyguard Fang knew who he was asking and said respectfully, "yes, I've been there. Now I've been back to the palace."

"What did you say?"

"The empress doesn't allow the humble servants to come near, so she can't know. But after she comes out of the prison, the empress's expression is much more relaxed. The humble guess is that it's a good talk."

"Good talk..." Yu Huai's index finger slowly clasped the table and said in a cool voice, "it makes people curious. They've all been put into prison. Where can they go?"

"Maybe..." Fang bodyguard said in a low voice: "they have thought of a way to retreat from the whole body."

Yu Huai gave a cold smile, "I'm not going to forgive you lightly..." In the middle of the speech, he suddenly stopped his voice, showing a thoughtful look, "is that the idea they are fighting?"

"What's the idea?" Bodyguard Fang asked curiously. As soon as he said that, he regretted it. This is not what he could ask. He quickly said: "I'm a humble officer. Please forgive me."

"That's all." Yu Huai waved his hand and said, "who heard them?"

Fang's bodyguard thought a little and said three names neatly, "ah Zi, ah LAN, and Huang Jiu."

"I see. Go down." When bodyguard Fang was about to walk to the door, he suddenly said: "ah Zi's mother is old and her legs are not flexible. When she got up at night, she accidentally fell and broke her leg bone. Let her go back to have a look."

The bodyguard was stunned and asked subconsciously, "how does your highness know?"

"Just say that." With these words, Yu Huai picked up the memorial again, obviously not intending to explain it.

Bodyguard Fang understood what he meant and had to go on with doubts. Shortly after he left, Ning Yue came in with a freshly brewed tea in her voice. "Your Highness, please have tea."

Yu Huai was surprised and said, "how are you?"

Ning Yue had expected that he would ask, and immediately said, "the teahouse is short of people, so my uncle asked the maidservant to help."

To Huai pick an eyebrow, "Jiang An asked you to come?"

"Well." She spat out her tongue and said, "my uncle thinks that the work of the maid is too easy. Just because the teahouse is short of hands, he came to help for a while."

When he heard that it was Jiang An, Yu Huai let go of his guard. Jiang An followed him for many years and was honest and reliable, otherwise he would not be the manager of the east palace.

Yu Huai never imagined that Jiang'an had been controlled by Ning Yue. Under the charming and lovely face that had cheated countless people, he was more cunning and terrifying than a fox.

As soon as the lid was opened, a mellow aroma floated out with the water vapor. The tea was orange and thick. Yu Huai said unexpectedly, "Pu'er tea?"

"Well, it's cooked Pu'er. It's mild and has the effect of warming and nourishing the stomach. It's the most suitable tea to drink in winter."

"Do you know tea?"

"My father liked to drink tea most when he was alive. He often talked to me about tea tasting. As time goes by, I will remember it. Father said that there are two kinds of Pu'er: raw tea is suitable for summer, heat clearing and fire removing, and cooked tea is suitable for winter, warming stomach and nourishing qi. What's more, because ripe tea is warm in nature, if it is used to soak feet, it can promote the blood circulation of feet, dredge channels and collaterals, and prevent frostbite. "

Yu Huai said with a smile, "it's right to let you work in the teahouse."

Ning month turns black and white clear eyes, small voice way: "that slave maidservant can rise a month money?"

Yu Huai Leng for a moment, immediately funny way: "you this Ni son, boasted a few words will rise monthly money, really can climb along the pole, how, monthly money is not enough for you to spend?"

Ning Yue broke her fingers and said, "jewelry, rouge powder, snacks and clothes are tight every month. With that, she said with a smile," Your Highness is so kind-hearted that you will understand your maidservant. "

"The ancient spirit is strange." Yu Huai was in a good mood to be complimented by her. "Just look at the fact that you have two jobs at the same time. Let's have two monthly payments."

Ning Yue was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to kowtow, "thank you, your highness." Hidden in the shadow of the corner of the mouth quietly curved, just a few liang of silver monthly money, she did not put in the heart, the reason is so, is to let completely dispel the wariness, believe that she is just an ordinary girl.

She took a look at the cup of Pu'er tea that hadn't been touched, and urged without any trace, "Your Highness, please try the tea making skill of your maidservant."

Yu Huai nodded and took a sip of the tea. The tea was slightly bitter at the beginning, but it soon penetrated through the teeth and penetrated into the gums. It turned bitter into sweet, fragrant and refreshing."It's really good." Hearing Yu Huai say these two words, Ning Yue felt relieved and said with a smile, "that slave will make it for you every day."

She put the powder from Liu Sanniang in the tea, and it was double in weight. Green tea was light in taste and easy to taste abnormal. Pu'er was different. The tea was mellow and strong enough to cover up all the abnormalities.

"How's Sanniang?" Hearing Yu Huai ask himself, Ning Yue quickly calms down and says, "today I look better, but I'm still weak."

"Let her have a good rest and let the doctor come to see her in a few days."

"Yes." Ning Yue agreed and looked at Yu Huai. Seeing her look, Yu Huai said: "what's the matter?"

"Your Highness..." Ning Yue twisted her clothes and said in a low voice, "what do you plan to do with the king of Qi?"

Yu Huai's eyebrows moved. "What do you want me to do?"

Ning Yue glanced at him and said timidly, "I dare not say that."

"Let's just talk. There's so much nonsense." Seeing Yu Huai's impatience, Ning Yue showed her panic and fear. She bit her lip and whispered: "the king of Qi almost killed Sanniang. Of course, I hope your highness can punish her severely, but He is the elder brother of his highness and the son of the empress. As the saying goes, if you don't look at the monks' face and the Buddha's face, if you punish him severely, the empress's face will not be able to pass, and it will bring you blame, so I don't know what to do. " After a pause, she said: "Sanniang has been saying it, don't hurt the kindness of you and the empress..." Before he heard the sound of "bang", Yu Huai put the tea cup on the table heavily, and his face was as gloomy as iron. "Empress, empress, you are really happy. Just go to the Changxin hall to wait on you."
