Yao Xi was stunned for a moment, then his face was excited.Empress is looking for her!The empress cares about her!

Sun Yan's expression was very dignified, she called the palace maid in and asked, "Aunt Liufang asked if Eunuch Yao is in our house, how did you reply?"

"Slave..." The maid pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Slave said I don't know..." Of course she knew about Eunuch Yao's residence at the mansion, and there was such a big commotion when Miss Biao rescued Eunuch Yao back this morning , so that everyone in the whole house knew about it.But the aunt who asked the question belonged to the Empress Dowager, so to lie to her is tantamount to lying to the frightened Empress Dowager!She dare not.

"You actually said you didn't know?" Sun Yan was almost dying of worry.

Yao Xi was almost dying of worry. It's not that this elder sister has never seen her before, so how could she say she didn't know?

"You should say that no stranger has ever visited the house!" Sun Yan was worried that Aunt Liufang already knew that Yao Xi was here. "Hurry up and ask Auntie to come in and talk." Fearing that the maid would slip up again, Sun Yan decided to send Aunt Liufang away in person.

Yao Xi was terrified when he heard it from the side: What do you mean no stranger has ever been here?Miss Biao, are you going to break your promise?

"Miss Biao, you said that the Empress Dowager would let me go when she came here." Yao Xi put down the ginger soup bowl, got up and went directly to Aunt Liufang.Before she could take two steps, she was easily dragged back by the powerful cousin.

Sun Yan just hooked Yao Xi's belt with her fingers and pulled it back lightly, without any effort at all.But Yao Xi's body was so weak that he even took several steps back and fell directly into her arms.

Sun Yan was sitting on the chair, and Yao Xi was sitting in her arms. She didn't push Yao Xi away, but covered Yao Xi's mouth and explained: "Of course I will let the father-in-law go. It's just that I don't know the palace What happened, I don’t know how the empress dowager got here. The empress dowager is famous outside, I’m afraid that if she knows you are in our house, it will harm everyone in the house. It may not be as tolerant as it is for the father-in-law."

"I'm begging my father-in-law, okay? Once Aunt Liufang leaves, I will personally escort my father-in-law back to the palace!" Sun Yan begged Yao Xi earnestly.

Yao Xi nodded. She awkwardly stood up from Miss Biao's arms and said, "Miss Biao has to keep her word. Anyway, if you don't let me go, I will find a way to go back." She has always been different from others, the empress may have known that it was Princess Longyi who kidnapped her if she came here, the princess said that she and the empress dowager are also family members, so it will be fine, but it may not be the case for the Miss Biao and the people in the Changgong's mansion who are involved. up.

Not to mention Miss Biao saved her life just now!

"Yeah. You keep your word!" Sun Yan pointed to the inside and said, "Then father-in-law avoid it first?" The empress dowager's people came all the way, and it was raining again, so there was no reason not to invite people in for a sip of hot tea.

Although Liu Fang did not serve the Empress Dowager for as long as Xian Qian, she was considered an experienced old man in the palace.She asked the little maid Yao Xi if she was here, but the little maid hesitated for a while and said that she didn't know anything about the house and she had to ask the master.Liu Fang didn't expect that Princess Longyi lived in the palace, and there were other masters in the eldest princess's house.

The little maid came out shortly after entering, led a few maidservants who held umbrellas to the front of the car, put up umbrellas for everyone in the palace and said: "It's windy and rainy, our cousin invites aunt to the main hall to talk. All fathers-in-law and sisters Please also go to the side hall to have some hot tea and snacks!"

"Miss Biao has a heart." Liufang smiled and walked under the umbrella of the little maid, and walked across the front yard to the main hall on the wet stone road.

"My servant Liu Fang has met Miss Biao." Liu Fang saluted Sun Yan.She knew from the address that the young lady who got up to greet her should be a cousin of the eldest princess.

Sun Yan asked Aunt Liufang to sit down, and ordered someone to have a tea ceremony: "I heard who is Auntie looking for?"

Liu Fang smiled and nodded: "Yes. The maidservant came here this time to take Eunuch Yao back to the palace under the order of the Empress Dowager. Eunuch Yao is the person who waits on the Empress personally. During the two days he left, the Empress was so haggard that she didn't think about eating and drinking A lot."

Yao Xi was right behind the inner door, and she could hear Aunt Liufang's words clearly.The empress dowager doesn't think about eating and drinking because of her?Yao Xi is both happy and guilty.She eats pretty well...how about she also hold back and eat less?

"That's a pity." Sun Yan moistened her mouth with tea and said, "No one has ever come to the mansion."

"That's not what the people in Miss Biao's house say." Liu Fang looked at the palace maid who was holding an umbrella to escort her to the main hall and said, "This younger sister didn't say that Eunuch Yao is not here."

"My aunt asked, of course the little girls dare not talk nonsense about things they are not sure about. She didn't say that Eunuch Yao is here, did she?" Sun Yan said looking directly at Liufang.

Liu Fang refused to give up a single step: "I will not lie to Miss Biao. The Empress Dowager gave the servant a token and ordered the servant to search the eldest princess's mansion. If the father-in-law is here, Miss Biao will hand him over to us, so we can talk about it. Otherwise, whether he is in the mansion or not Now, you will only find out after searching your residence."

"Auntie, please do what you want." Sun Yan glanced anxiously at the back of the main hall.

Liu Fang noticed the direction of Miss Biao's gaze. The other court ladies and eunuchs were having tea in the side hall, so she got up and went to the back hall alone.

Yao Xi was hiding in the inner room on the right side of the main hall, and Sun Yan deliberately distracted Aunt Liufang to gain time to hide Yao Xi.She quickly dodged into the room, took Yao Xiti, who was eavesdropping behind the door, to the main hall, covered Yao Xi's head with her hand, and shoved him under the former queen's spiritual case. It happened to cover Yao Xi.

"Elder-in-law, don't make a sound." After Sun Yan instructed Yao Xi softly, she went to the back hall.Aunt Liufang was searching carefully, and Sun Yan stepped forward to remove the table, chair, cabinet and screen for Aunt Liufang herself. "I told you I wasn't here. My aunt just didn't believe it."

After Liufang searched the back hall, she went to the side hall to call all the maids and eunuchs who came with her, and searched the Princess's mansion all over.

They failed to find Yao Xi.Because Yao Xi was hiding in the main hall where Liu Fang had been sitting for a long time, and it was under the table that enshrined the coffin of the former empress, no one dared to touch that place.

Although she couldn't find Yao Xi, Liu Fang had an intuition that Yao Xi was at the eldest princess's residence. "I don't know if the servants and others can rest in your mansion for a night before leaving? They came all night, and everyone didn't sleep much last night."

"It should be." Sun Yan ordered someone to send the empress dowager to the guest room.Aunt Liufang and her party moved into the guest room, so Yao Xi couldn't stay in the guest room any longer.After spending half a day with Aunt Liufang, it was almost time for dinner when everyone dispersed.

Sun Yan returned to the main hall as if nothing had happened, planning to take Yao Xi, who didn't even bother to eat lunch, to another place to hide.

"Elder-in-law, you can come out now." Sun Yan patted lightly the thick silk cloth covering Yao Xi that was spread on the coffin case.

It was quiet under the table and there was no response.

Sun Yan lifted the silk cloth and saw Yao Xi curled up on the ground, sleeping soundly.Fortunately, Eunuch Yao doesn't snore much when he sleeps!Sun Yan thought with lingering fear.

She stretched out her hand to wake Yao Xi up, but after thinking about it, she withdrew her hand.She heard from the maid guarding Yao Xi's gate last night that the lights in the guest room were on and off several times in the middle of the night, and Yao Xi must have been up all night and wanted to escape.She was so frightened again in the morning, seeing Yao Xi sleeping soundly, Sun Yan couldn't bear to wake him up.

When Aunt Liufang searched the house, Yao Xi kept her promise and kept hiding. Sun Yan was very grateful for that.The child who can be given up in order to return to the palace, when he heard that it might bring everyone in the house and be punished by the empress dowager, he was willing to hide under this spiritual case for half a day hungry.

Yao Xi kept her promise so much, she couldn't break her promise.When Aunt Liufang leaves tomorrow, she has to send Yao Xi back to the palace quickly.People who have just been exposed to the rain will definitely get sick if they sleep on the cold ground for a long time. Sun Yan ducked under the table, easily hugged Yao Xi, got up and went back to her own room.

Aunt Liufang, her boudoir, had searched it herself in the afternoon, so she probably wouldn't search it a second time.Especially Yao Xi is a eunuch, men and women can't get along well, Aunt Liufang must never have imagined that she would hide Yao Xi in her own room.

Yao Xi woke up from hunger, and found himself lying on an unfamiliar bed.

The last time she woke up like this was in the Empress Dowager's bedroom, here is... Yao Xi got up and looked around, and saw Miss Cousin sitting far away at the table under the window having dinner.It means that when she smelled the tempting food just now, she thought she was getting hungry in a dream.

Yao Xi didn't eat breakfast or lunch, and was already so hungry that his chest stuck to his back.She got up and got out of bed, and sat down opposite Miss Biao. Just as she was about to eat, she found that there was only a pair of chopsticks and a bowl.

Is Miss Biao planning to eat alone?Yao Xi pouted unhappily, secretly swallowing.

"Are you awake?" Seeing Yao Xi's greedy look, Sun Yan smiled: "Eunuch, wait a minute, I'll order the kitchen to make some new food."

Yao Xi straightened his neck to see Miss Biao go out, quickly took Miss Biao's chopsticks, picked up a mouthful of vegetables from the other end and hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth.She was really starving, and she couldn't wait for the kitchen to be ready to be delivered, so she just wanted to pad her stomach with whatever pads she wanted.As for the matter of starving to accompany the empress dowager, it was thrown out of the blue, the instinct is really hard to resist!

Sun Yan didn't go to the kitchen, she ordered someone at the door to send a message to the kitchen and came back.Turning around, she saw that Yao Xi was stealing food. Afraid of Yao Xi's embarrassment, Sun Yan stepped outside the house, hoping to wait for Yao Xi to finish eating before going back.

Yao Xi didn't dare to eat too much, so she only took two chopsticks. She fetched a towel, wiped the tops of the chopsticks clean, and returned them to Miss Biao. She sat obediently at the table, swallowed and waited.Sun Yan had been standing outside the house, waiting for the kitchen food to be ready and carrying it in herself.

"Eunuch, please use it!" Sun Yan said as she put the bowl and chopsticks on Yao Xi's behalf.

The portion of the food is not small, after Yao Xi ate up all the CD-ROMs, he said shyly, "Is there any more?" She was already full, but still wanted to eat. "The food at your house is delicious. I'm leaving tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it in the future." She had to go back to the Queen Mother to live the poison test again.

"Why can't I eat? Come whenever you want, and it's not far from the palace." Sun Yan poured a cup of tea for Yao Xi and said, "By the way, Eunuch doesn't mind sleeping here tonight, does he?"

Yao Xi saw that this was Miss Biao's boudoir. Although she knew that she belonged to a girl, she was still an eunuch in the eyes of outsiders. Hearing Miss Biao's suggestion, she hesitated and did not answer.

"Aunt Liufang will definitely search the house. This place is relatively the most comfortable and safe. You can't let your father-in-law hide under the ghost case overnight?" Sun Yan explained. "It's not a trivial matter to offend the empress dowager, so I have to wrong my father-in-law for another night. Is it okay?"

can be can. "Where does Miss Cousin sleep?" Yao Xi asked innocently.It's impossible for Miss Biao to sleep in the same room as her, right?

Sun Yan said indifferently: "Of course it's here too." She picked up Yao Xi's finished bowl and got up and said, "I'll ask the kitchen to make more food for my father-in-law."

There was panic on Yao Xi's face.There is only one bed in this room!

***

Wan Yu dropped a piece on the chessboard and looked at Emperor Ming Cheng with disgust: "The emperor lost again."

"Come again!" Emperor Ming Cheng originally thought that the little eunuch was not in a good mood without Yao Xi, the queen mother didn't eat well, and he didn't sleep well, so he took time to come here to play chess with the queen mother to relieve boredom.But he kept losing and losing, and gradually lost his temper. "Lan Jieyu is also good at chess, I can already beat her, why can't I beat the Queen Mother?"

"Stupid child. Aijia told you that she let you on purpose." Wan Yu watched Ming Chengdi pick up the chess piece, and could only say weakly: "The next game is the emperor, go back! State affairs are important, Aijia I don't need you to accompany me."

She only wanted Yao Xi to accompany her, but Yao Xi never heard from her.If it really doesn't work, I can only force Longyi to hand over Yao Xi, so if you turn your back on it, turn your back on it!It's not a biological child anyway.

Ming Chengdi really wanted to win a game against the Empress Dowager. When he handed the pieces he had picked up to the Empress Dowager and was about to play another game, Ping'er excitedly ran in and said, "Your Majesty! You found Yao Xi!"
