After fetal transfusion: Huang Ama, your royal mausoleum has been stolen

Chapter 272 Eavesdropping on the Conversation Openly

In the conversation between these two masters, the meanings of various terms were expressed very vaguely.

The disciples were confused and had no idea what was going on.

They could only look at each other pitifully, wanting to ask but not daring to.

All kinds of conflicted expressions were revealed on their faces without any concealment. Yuan Fuhai didn't need to bother guessing. He could understand it all at a glance.

"What a promising future." Yuan Fuhai raised his hand helplessly, pointed at the two of them in the air, and cursed with a smile.

"Don't worry about this matter. I'll find a chance to talk to Zhang Shan later. If we can reconcile, that's great. But if they don't want to give in, then we have nothing to fear."

Without any intention of discussing further, Yuan Fuhai made the decision directly.

He still had some confidence, "If it doesn't work, we can still..."

"Eunuch Yuan?"

Yuan Fuhai was interrupted by a noise coming from outside the house before he could finish his words.

The sudden sound, happening at such a timely moment, really startled him for a moment, and the tea bowl in his hand was even tilted and shook.

The tea that had just been filled in the bowl immediately poured out as the angle shifted.

The rain dripped down and soaked Yuan Fuhai's pants.

"Who's outside?" Without taking the time to tidy himself up, Yuan Fuhai put down his tea bowl and stood up to look outside.

He wanted to see who dared to eavesdrop on their conversation outside.

If he were caught, he would...

"It's very lively here, Eunuch Yuan." To Yuan Fuhai's surprise, the man who was talking outside did not dodge or avoid them, but walked straight towards them.

He didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt as one would feel after being caught eavesdropping.

On the contrary, the moment he saw the person's face clearly, his expression changed several times.

Finally, he put on a smile and said, "It turns out to be Miss Qingque. You are really a rare guest."

The palace maids' residences were of course not in the same place as the eunuchs', especially those like Qingque who served their masters closely, and rarely set foot in the back chamber.

Therefore, when Yuan Fuhai saw her, he was so surprised that he was unable to react.

I was so anxious that I suppressed all the thoughts in my mind.

Since this person is the one who has come, Yuan Fuhai is helpless. Even if she intends to eavesdrop, what can he do?

"Miss, if you have something to do, just tell someone. Why do you have to make a trip in person?" Yuan Fuhai stood up and greeted her, still speaking politely.

In this palace, the palace maids were born into the bondservants of the upper three banners, so their status was naturally higher than that of the eunuchs, let alone a first-class palace maid like Qingque.

Therefore, when Yuan Fuhai and others faced Qingque, not only did they not dare to be arrogant at all, but they also naturally showed some respect.

"But does the princess have anything to say?" Yuan Kangshou was only half a step behind and quickly took up the conversation.

The four masters and apprentices met Qingque in the yard in front of the cottage.

However, they did not dare to invite her into the house to sit down, so they could only ask their disciples to bring tea to the guest.

"No need to trouble you. I'll just say a few words and then I'll go back." Qingque called the two younger ones in a gentle tone.

Then he didn't waste any more time on them and said directly, "My master heard that Eunuch Xiao Yuan encountered some problems in the Qianqing Palace, which seemed to be related to corn, so he wanted to send me to inquire about the situation."

"But, from what you all said just now...is this matter difficult to handle?" Adhering to the principle of seeing through but not speaking out, Qingque very considerately chose to use a more tactful way of saying it to tell them that he had heard everything.

He also tentatively extended an invitation to them, "If you are still free at this moment, why don't you come with me? I think some things should be explained to the princess in person."

"What do you think?"

Qingque had a smile on his face from beginning to end, but when Yuan Fuhai and others heard these words, they inexplicably sounded unquestionable.

"Young lady, what you said is true. The princess has summoned us, so it is not our turn to refuse." Yuan Fuhai was helpless, but he had to compromise and said, "Then please lead the way, young lady."

He would have to go to Xirui to give an answer anyway, so there was no need for him to explain it again to Qingque.

I was thinking of letting them listen to it together later.

Qingque nodded, without any intention of being polite with them, and turned around and walked back in the direction he came from.

Yuan Fuhai and the others didn't say anything more, they just followed silently.

Following him all the way, we arrived outside Xirui's own residence.

Xirui was still curled up on the kang bed by the window sill.

As soon as he heard the report, he sat up straight, "Didn't I ask Qingque to go and question him? Why did he bring a bunch of people back to me?"

Especially, there is a Yuan Fuhai among that group of people.

What a bright logo.

He followed Qingque around for most of the circle and stopped in front of her door.

How can she keep a low profile?

Yun Hui saw her master sitting up suddenly, and fearing that she would stretch herself again, she quickly came close to support her, "Master, be careful. If you don't want to see them, tell them to go away first, and only leave Qingque to reply."

After all, this just makes them make one more trip, and it's not a big deal.

How could it be worth the master's worry about it?

"Hmm~" Xirui was feeling upset at the moment and didn't want to explain too much to her. He just covered his head and kept thinking.

In the end, she chose not to call them in before Yun Ya came in and passed the message for the second time.

After all, they are such big targets, and they are already standing outside. I believe it won’t be long before my mother finds them.

In order to make it easier for her to explain later, she decided to take a few more steps.

"Why did Qingque come back so soon?" Xirui shouted outside, but he did not quicken his pace and still walked slowly to the outside of the hall.

"Didn't I tell you to go and question him? Why did you bring him back?" Xirui asked as he walked and came to the corridor and sat down with a clear goal in mind.

He waved his hand again, motioning Qingque to come forward and answer.

"To reply my master, when I went there, several eunuchs Yuan happened to be discussing this matter, so I overheard it." Qingque walked quickly forward and stood beside Xirui.

"It is said that this matter involves quite a bit. Xiao Yuzi's master is about to be promoted to the head steward of the imperial kitchen." When saying the second half of the sentence, Qingque did not dare to speak loudly, so he had to lower his body and lean close to Xirui's ear and replied.

No matter where Yuan Fuhai and the others heard the news, since they hadn't made it clear yet, they couldn't just say it out loud.
