The little eunuch gl of the demon queen

After the maid locked Yao Xi's feet, she set out a meal for her, and said with a kind smile: "Eunuch Yao should rest early after eating, if we start our journey early tomorrow, we will arrive at night."

Yao Xi glanced at the key on the maid's waist again, and asked with some disappointment: "Do the two elder sisters live here?" If she didn't live here, she would have no chance to steal the key and escape.

Yao Xi thought about running away.She was tied out of the palace at noon, and she traveled for about half a day until she stayed in the inn at night. The journey was not too bumpy, the carriage should not be traveling fast, and she hadn't traveled too far.If she could unlock the lock on her feet and steal a horse at night to escape towards the palace, she would be able to reach Miyagi tomorrow morning at the latest.

Fortunately, she was going back to the palace, and the people in Gyeonggi knew which direction to go.

It's easy when you get to Miyagi.The Siyuan Bureau has to buy fruits and vegetables every morning, and she knows when the palace gate opens, she just needs to wait outside the palace gate for the people from the Siyuan Bureau to come out and let them take her into the palace.

No matter what she said, she also worked in the Siyuan Bureau for more than a year, and later she lost face in front of the empress dowager.It is no exaggeration to say that she is the living legend of Si Yuanju, a role model for everyone, a success that is difficult to replicate, and a miracle that is rare in a century.I don't know about the other places, anyway, everyone in the Siyuan Bureau definitely knows her.

"Elder-in-law, don't you know the difference between men and women?" The maid's face was a little unhappy, she felt that Yao Xi's question was too rude.How could the two girls be in the same room with a eunuch?Not to mention that this eunuch is still the Empress Dowager's favorite servant. "We live next door."

Yao Xi pretended to be scared and said: "I didn't mean to offend the two sisters. I just thought that the people in the inn come and go, and there might be murderers and robbers breaking in at night? I was locked up and couldn't escape. , if you really got into the villain, wouldn't you just have to wait for death?"

Seeing that the maid's complexion was a little loose, Yao Xi was aggrieved and tugged on the maid's sleeve lightly and coquettishly said: "Please, sister, she knows me, there is absolutely no way she would do something unruly to you two..." After finishing speaking She also blinked pitifully, her face full of innocence.

The palace ladies had a good impression of Yao Xi, they were all called sisters, Yao Xi gave people a very refreshing feeling, while other eunuchs always had a greasy and wretched feeling.This kid Yao Xi is also respectful to others, he has obviously won the favor of the Empress Dowager and Her Royal Highness, but he has no airs in dealing with others, and is always kind.

"Elder-in-law, if you are really scared, we two can make do with the night here on the floor!" the maid said softly.

Her Royal Highness told them not to let Yao Xi escape, but also not to make Yao Xi suffer, and send him back to the fief safely.It's hard to say who they will meet along the way. Her Royal Highness asked the two of them to escort Yao Xi because they know how to punch and kick. It's not a problem to meet ordinary hooligans or road robbers.

There were a lot of good and bad people in the inn, and Yao Xi's ordinary clothes were made of rare materials, he looked either rich or expensive.Maybe there is someone who really wants money rather than life, and it's not known whether he secretly hooked up with Yao Xi.Yao Xi was locked in this room, if something bad happened, it would be terrible.

"Thank you, sister. But, I'll sleep on the floor for the two of you!" Yao Xi said sweetly.

"It's just for one night, it's okay. Father-in-law, let's eat quickly! Otherwise, it will be cold." After finishing speaking, the maid went to the next room, and said to another maid who had already lived there: "Yao Xi said that he was afraid to live alone. , let's hug the mattress and go to make do for the night."

"He's too timid!"

The two laughed for a while and went to Yao Xi's room.Yao Xi finished his meal in a hurry, and lay down on the bed with his clothes closed, and fell asleep with his eyes closed. The two maids closed the door lightly, made a bed on the open space in the room and lay down with their clothes on.

"Whoo~"

Yao Xi closed his eyes when he heard the sound of someone blowing a lamp, and then his eyes went dark.She wasn't really asleep, but was waiting for an opportunity to steal the key.The empress dowager must have found out that she was not in the palace, she had to rush back to the palace as soon as possible, and explain clearly before the empress became discouraged with her.

I don't know what the queen mother is doing now.Was he anxiously searching the entire palace to find her?Or thought she had escaped, and got angry and ordered Concubine Kang to send the beautiful man in the picture of playing the piano to the palace for preparation?

With Empress' personality, no matter how you think about it, the latter is more likely.

The more Yao Xi thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She had to go back as soon as possible, and she couldn't give the empress dowager a chance to change her love.She secretly opened her eyes, and after adapting to the darkness for a while, she turned her head to look at the ground.The two sisters were sleeping soundly facing each other, and one even snored slightly.

Yao Xi didn't get up and take action immediately, but was patient, waiting for them to sleep more soundly and soundly before making a move.There was no chance of escaping. If she missed, what was waiting for her would not be thin iron chains, but five knots.

After waiting for a long time, Yao Xi guessed that both of them had fallen into a deep sleep, before Yao Xi picked up the iron chain with his hand and quietly got out of the bed.

There was no light in the room, it was very dark, and Yao Xi couldn't see where the keys were at all.She didn't dare to light the candle, so she could only hold the iron chain with one hand to prevent it from making a sound, and slowly touched the waist of the maid in charge of the key with the other hand.

She gently touched the palace maid's stomach to both sides, and her fingertips suddenly felt cold.Yao Xi took a deep breath excitedly, she found the key.It's just that the key ring seems to be on the belt, and she can only take off the key by untying the belt...

No matter how you think about it, this scene is very obscene.

She is a eunuch, and she unties her belt while the maid's sister is asleep?If someone finds out, he will definitely be beaten to death as a pervert, right?She was very careful, squatting on the ground, and started to undo the belt with her nimble fingers.

Sudden!Yao Xi felt that his hand was being grabbed.

"Eunuch Yao!" The maid in charge of the key opened her eyes suddenly, and quickly pressed Yao Xi's scheming hand. "I really didn't expect my father-in-law to be such a person! It's useless for our eldest princess to value her father-in-law so much. She is afraid that her father-in-law will be harmed by the empress dowager, and she will take the risk of sending her father-in-law away from the palace!"

Longyi didn't mention Yao Xi's real identity to the people around him, only said that he was worried that something would happen sooner or later because Yao Xi was serving by the Queen Mother, in order to save Yao Xi's life, and also to anger the Queen Mother, he secretly sent Yao Xi out of the palace.

Everyone knows the grievances between the eldest princess and the empress dowager, and the maids did not suspect that the eldest princess really wanted to anger the empress dowager by kidnapping Yao Xi because of the humiliation of the previous empress.

Yao Xi looked terrified: "Sister, listen to me to explain..." She is not a pervert!really not!

Another court lady also woke up, seeing the scene in front of her, she quickly lit the lamp.

The two looked at Yao Xi with contempt in tacit understanding.

Yao Xi's little brain turned quickly again, and she said with a bitter face: "The servant is not trying to make trouble with my sister, but I am so anxious that it is inconvenient for my sisters to solve it in the Gong bucket inside the house, so I want to take it." The key unlocks the chain and goes downstairs to the latrine..." A lie needs superb acting skills to match, Yao Xi covered his stomach with a painful expression.

The maid frowned: "If it's just internal urgency, wouldn't it be fine to wake us up? Is it worth sneaking around?"

"I understand that the two sisters are very tired after driving for half a day, and they will have to travel all day tomorrow. I don't want to disturb the rest of the sisters because of my trivial matter." Yao Xi was very sincere and worked hard to make up nonsense.

"Your eunuch is thinking of running away, right?" The maid became suspicious.

Yao Xi hurriedly waved his hands: "I know Her Royal Highness has good intentions, how could she be so ignorant? It's really urgent. Oops! I can't bear it anymore!" Yao Xi clamped his legs exaggeratedly.

The two maids also panicked: "Then let's go back to the next room. Eunuch can solve it with Gong bucket in the room!"

"Big one! I can only go to the latrine!" Yao Xi held his breath and turned his face into a pig's liver, with a painful expression on his face: "Unlock the lock quickly! Or something serious will happen!"

Fearing that Yao Xi would really be unable to hold back, the palace maid hurriedly unlocked the lock for her, telling her, "It's dangerous at night, father-in-law, hurry up and come back."

As soon as the lock was unlocked, Yao Xi rushed downstairs like a flying arrow.

The maid who lit the lamp said anxiously: "Aren't we going to follow up to see? What if people run away?"

The maid in charge of the key bowed her head and tied her belt, "Don't worry! He is so timid, where would he dare to go in the middle of the night?"

Seeing that the palace maid did not catch up, Yao Xi breathed a sigh of relief.She ran downstairs, walked through the inn lobby, and was about to go out when she was suddenly called out: "Where are you going, sir?"

Yao Xi turned around and saw the waiter behind the counter who was yawning.

"I'm in a hurry and have to travel all night, so I'll take my leave first." Yao Xi calmly explained, and was about to open the door latch.

The waiter at the night watch came out from behind the counter, walked to Yao Xi's side with his abacus in his arms, and said with a smile, "It seems that the guest officer is really in a hurry, but no matter how urgent the bill is, you have to pay it, right?"

The waiter in the shop held the abacus and read while dialing: "You are the son who lives in the third and fourth rooms on the left side of the second floor with the two wives, right? Both rooms are Tian Zi, eight coins per night. Three meals a day The shop is covered, but the first-class tea and snacks ordered by the two ladies are extra, and the fragrant soup for the ladies to bathe is also extra...plus the fodder fee for the horses. The total is three, two or six dollars silver."

The waiter smiled graciously, and handed Yao Xi the abacus with both hands.

"Ahem! The two wives haven't left yet, and they will give you the money. I have an urgent matter, so I really can't delay any longer." Yao Xi went out again with a serious face.Unexpectedly, the waiter in the shop directly blocked the door, with a compensating smile on his face: "My lord, I don't know, but there are rules in this shop, customers who haven't settled their bills are not allowed to leave."

The door is close at hand.As long as she crossed this threshold, she could return to the empress dowager's side.But who ever thought that at this juncture, they would be blocked by three or six coins?She had nothing on her except the booklet that Aunt Xianqian gave her. She used to have a good habit of sewing bank notes on her body, but since she became penniless, she also threw away that habit.

"Guest officer, should I pay the bill now or..." the waiter asked with a smile.I have already become suspicious of this handsome young man who looks like a man: Is he a hollow pole who has no money and wants to renege on his debts?

Yao Xi estimated the chances of him escaping head-on with the shop boy, and resigned himself to his fate, he turned and went upstairs.

***

Wan Yu fell asleep very late, and finally fell asleep for a while in a daze, before waking up again before dawn.

Xianqian stayed outside the palace all night. Seeing that the empress was in an unprecedentedly bad mood, she didn't dare to leave her body, and moved in after ordering the rebuilding of Ning'an Palace.Hearing the commotion in the bedroom, Xianqian asked softly through the door: "Your Majesty, it's still dark, do you want to sleep a little longer? Or is it that the servants are calling someone to help your Majesty to dress up now?"

"Don't sleep anymore." Wan Yu just came out of the Nuan Pavilion and said in a low voice while sitting in front of the makeup mirror.

She is busy today, Yao Xihuo wants to see people die before seeing corpses.If the person is still alive and well, she will just pick it up again.If something happened... Wan Yu's heart was stabbed severely again.

Then she has to avenge Yao Xi too!

The face in the mirror was terribly haggard, the eyes were so red and swollen that they could not be opened, the dry tears hung on the face, the hair was glued into pieces by the tears, and the whole person looked messy and dirty.She can't put on such a ghostly look, Yao Xi may come back at any time, if the girl sees her like this, she will despise her, right?

She had to wait happily for Yao Xi to come back.

Wan Yu took out a towel from her bosom to wipe off the tears on her face, Xianqian had already brought in a few court ladies, stood behind her and said, "Your maidservant attends to your empress' makeup."

"Prepare bath soup. Ai's family needs to take a bath and change clothes." Wan Yu cheered up.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, Wan Yu went to the main hall, and Qian Qian persuaded her distressedly: "Your Majesty, pass on the breakfast! You ate a meal yesterday."

"How's the palace search going?" Wan Yu sat on the grand master's chair, staring coldly at the dark entrance of the main hall.She has no appetite at all, Yao Xi is still missing, she can't swallow anything.

"There is still no whereabouts of Yao Xi." Xianqian replied.

"Then find out who has been out of the palace yesterday! Isn't there a record at the gate of the palace? Send the record to Aijia." Wan Yu said angrily.She was very anxious, afraid that something might happen to Yao Xi, but she seemed to be the only one who was anxious, and everyone in the palace poked and moved.

"Yes." Yuanqian quickly agreed.

"You know why don't you go quickly?" Wan Yu glared at Xianqian.

Xianqian didn't dare to delay, she immediately led two people with lanterns, and went to the palace gate to ask the guards on duty at night to record the booklet of people entering and leaving the palace.

Not long after Xianqian left, Fu'er, who was sent to wait by Lan Jieyu's side, came. "Your Majesty, Lan Jieyu went to Princess Longyi's Palace overnight. The slaves followed me secretly, and when they saw the lights in the Empress' Palace were still on, they started talking back and forth."

"Longyi?" Wan Yu's knuckles were turning white while holding the armrest of the chair. She never suspected that this matter would be related to Longyi.

"You go back to Qianqing Palace!" Wan Yu said to Fu'er, then got up and walked outside the palace, and said to the maid guarding the door: "Ai's family is going to Princess Longyi's place, if there is news about Yao Xi, come and tell Ai immediately. Home."
