Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore
Chapter 654 Similar
After landing firmly on the ground, Hua Manman immediately put Li Xun down and said to him.
"You follow Xiaohua first, it will lead you to find a place to hide."
Li Xun hurriedly asked: "Then what about you?"
Hua Manman: "I have to go back, otherwise it will arouse the suspicion of Concubine Zhen, but don't worry, your grandmother and I will come out soon, and then we will leave the palace together."
Li Xun looked at her reluctantly.
"Come out quickly."
"it is good."
Hua Manman watched Li Xun and Sanhuamao leave.
When the people were far away, she used lightness kung fu to climb over the wall and return to Yufu Palace.
She returned to the dining room with the food box, took out the warmed egg yolk pastry and put it on the food table.
Concubine Zhen stretched out her slender jade fingers and pinched a piece of egg yolk crisp, but instead of eating it, she sighed.
"If Manman were here, she would definitely like to eat this egg yolk cake."
Suddenly hearing her own name, Hua Manman couldn't help but feel her heart tighten.
She lowered her head again, trying to reduce her sense of existence.
Thinking of her deceased daughter, Mrs. He felt very sad.
But she still tried to force a smile on her face.
"Manman has passed away for so long, so don't mention her again, so as not to make your mother feel sad."
Concubine Zhen: "Nowadays in the capital, there are not many people left who can still remember Manman, and only my mother can talk about her affairs with Bengong."
At the end, she put the meringue back on the plate, her expression still sad.
Mrs. He comforted her a few words.
Too bad it didn't work.
Concubine Zhen's mood never improved.
She didn't have the appetite to continue eating, but she didn't want to waste He's kindness, she caught a glimpse of Hua Manman standing behind He from the corner of her eye, and asked casually.
"What's your name?"
Afraid of arousing suspicion, Hua Manman replied cautiously.
"The servant's name is Hongdou."
Concubine Zhen: "Red beans...the name is quite nice. I will reward you with these egg yolk cakes. You can eat them while they are hot."
Hua Manman hurriedly thanked her, picked up the egg yolk pastry, stepped aside, and started eating with her head down.
The egg yolk crisps after heating are extra sweet, crispy in the mouth and endless in aftertaste.
In order not to be seen by others, she did not dare to reveal her true nature, she always ate in small bites, and was careful when chewing, not letting herself make any noise.
Concubine Zhen couldn't help but look at her more.
He noticed this and asked tentatively.
"What are you looking at, ma'am?"
Concubine Zhen pointed to Hua Manman, and said: "I finally know why my mother keeps her by my side. She is indeed somewhat similar to Manman, especially when she eats. She is so cute that people can't bear it." I also want to eat more when I live.”
He smiled: "Yeah, it's really quite similar."
Hua Manman: "..."
She has deliberately slowed down her eating speed, why is she still seen as similar?
Concubine Zhen asked her, "Is the egg yolk cake delicious?"
Hua Manman hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth, and replied respectfully.
"delicious."
Concubine Zhen smiled slightly: "In the future, if you stay in the palace, you can eat as many egg yolk cakes as you want."
Hearing this, Hua Manman and He Shi were both shocked.
Mrs. He hurriedly said, "What do you mean by your mother's words?"
Concubine Zhen had just said that casually and didn't take it seriously, but now seeing Hongdou's frightened appearance, she couldn't help but think of her second sister again.
The expressions of the two of them were exactly the same when they were shocked.
This made Concubine Zhen suddenly have an idea in her heart——
It's better to leave the red beans in the palace.
In the future, if she misses her second younger sister, she will call Hongdou to her and have a look, so that she can get some comfort in her heart.
Concubine Zhen: "Red Dou is cute and fits my eyes very well. I want to keep her in the palace. When she is free, she can still talk to me. I wonder if mother is willing to part with her?"
He wanted to say no.
But rationality told her that she was not qualified to reject Concubine Zhen now.
She tried to keep herself calm.
"It's a blessing from Hongdou's previous life that the imperial concubine has a crush on Hongdou. Is there any reason for me not to agree?"
She turned her head to look at Hua Manman, and said in a low voice.
"Don't you hurry up and thank the imperial concubine?"
Hua Manman knelt down towards Concubine Zhen.
"Thank you for your love, my concubine. I am honored to be able to stay here to serve my mother. But I still have my parents at home. Can you give me two days to let my servant go home to accompany my parents at the end?"
After she finished speaking, she kowtowed heavily, full of pleading.
Knowing that she was trying to delay the time, He chimed in.
"The child Hongdou has always been filial, and I hope that the imperial concubine will be perfect."
Concubine Zhen looked at Hong Dou and asked, "Where is your Patriarch? I sent someone to take you back."
Hua Manman complained endlessly in his heart, but he had to pretend to be flattered on his face.
"Can't make it, can't make it!
The servant's parents have never seen much of the world, so they are very timid.
If they saw people from the palace coming to the door, they would definitely be terrified.
The kindness of the imperial concubine and empress is appreciated, the servant and maid can just go back by themselves, there is really no need to bother the imperial concubine or empress. "
Concubine Zhen: "Since that's the case, I won't force you. You can come back to the palace in two days."
Hua Manman kowtowed to her again.
"Thank you, my concubine!"
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I got past this level.
Lunch has been used up.
He bid farewell.
Concubine Zhen: "It's rare for mother to enter the palace, why don't you sit for a while?"
He Shi: "I also want to spend more time with my wife, but there are too many things at home, I can't stay outside for too long, I hope my mother will forgive me."
She took Hua Manman and turned to leave.
When the two walked to the door, they suddenly heard Zhen Guifei say something.
"Wait a moment."
Both Hua Manman and He's heart skipped a beat.
Shouldn't it be seen as a clue?
Mrs. He tried her best to pretend that nothing happened, and asked, "Is there any other orders from your empress?"
Concubine Zhen pointed to the plate of unfinished egg yolk crisps and reminded.
"Take this home and let Hongdou's parents taste it."
Hua Manman showed a grateful expression: "Thank you for your reward!"
She picked up the egg yolk crisps, put them in the food box, and followed Mrs. He out.
Concubine Zhen didn't call them back this time.
The two walked out of the gate of Yufu Palace smoothly.
Finally got away!
Both Hua Manman and He Shi breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, they saw a group of people walking towards them in front of them.
The leader is Prince Li Qiong.
Although Li Qiong is only one year older than Li Xun, his temperament is much more stable than Li Xun.
"Grandma, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
He smiled and said: "I'm fine, are you going to visit your mother and concubine?"
Li Qiong: "I came here this time not only to visit my concubine, but also to see my cousin Li Xun."
He Shi and Hua Manman immediately became nervous again.
Why doesn't the prince come sooner or later, why is it coming at this juncture? !
