Chapter 160 People Walk for Tea

On the morning of the second day, Yao Yulu came to the Yuemei Palace. Yao Yulu stood in the East Hall. It had already been empty and desolate. Yao Yulu was sad. She thought that today was Xu Yanning's seven-day period. When she left, she was lonely. Since she came back for the last time, she could not let Xu Yanning be so wronged. .

"Wu'er, go and ask Grandpa Qiu, the chief of internal affairs, to come."

Yao Yulu opened the door, and a smell of tide surged. She frowned slightly, but it had only been a few days. The smell of tide was so strong. Lv Pang Xiao entered the room and opened the windows. Yao Yulu waited for the air to circulate before entering. She looked at the familiar room and couldn't help crying.

"Little Lord is auspicious."

A voice came from behind, and Yao Yulu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Then she turned around and stood in front of Yao Yulu with a halfbow.

"Eunuch Qiu, go and ask a few people to clean this place. If Sister Ning comes back, she will be sad to see this." Yao Yulu said.

Eunuch Qiu turned around and said a few words to the little eunuch behind him, "Little lord, I have explained it, and someone will come to clean it in a moment."

Yao Yulu wiped the chair with a handkerchief, and then sat down. The sad look on her face had long disappeared. Instead, she became extremely lonely. She looked at Grandpa Qiu with his head hanging below, "Duke Qiu, Sister Ning has only died a few days ago, and no one has cleaned here? Where's the maid here?"

Grandpa Qiu listened to Yao Yulu's question and seemed to have no idea how to answer. Yao Yulu looked at him like this and couldn't help wondering. What's wrong with this?

"Eunuch Qiu, you can say whatever you want. There is no need to hesitate." Lv Panxiao scolded loudly.

"Well, I just said, please don't be surprised." After saying that, there were mysterious colors on his face, "It was indeed four maids who came here, but since Shuilan hanged himself on the beam, it was rumored that there were ghosts here. The other three said that they could see white shadows in the inner hall at night, and they all said that Xu Cairen came back, so no one dared to stay here, so It's empty."

Yao Yulu was shocked when she heard Qiu's words and hurriedly asked, "Do you think that Shuilan is dead?"

Grandpa Qiu looked up and nodded. Yao Yulu gritted her teeth fiercely and looked at Grandpa Qiu. Originally, she came here today to interrogate the water blue man. She didn't expect her to come late. What a murderer.

"When did Water Blue die?"

"I found it yesterday morning." Grandpa Qiu replied.

Yao Yulu stood up. The murderer was so cautious that he didn't even let go of a little maid and committed suicide? Are there fewer suicides in this palace? She turned around and walked to the inner hall. Xu Yanning's dresser was neat. She slowly walked there and touched every place. Suddenly, she found that there was a jade pendant in the corner of the dresser. She looked behind them, and they all hung their heads. Then she slowly picked it up and put it in her clothes.

"Pang Xiao, let's go back." Yao Yulu opened her mouth lightly and took the lead in going out.

When I came out, I happened to see Guan Guiren. Guan Guiren saw Yao Yulu coming towards her. Yao Yulu looked at her and thought that she had also lived here for a period of time, and Guan Guiren was also good to her and greeted her directly.

"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you so thin?" Guan Guiren asked with concern.

Yao Yulu couldn't help smiling bitterly. These days, she felt uncomfortable when she thought about Xu Yanning, so this person seemed a little haggard.

"Thank you for your concern, Yu Lu may not have slept well these days." Yao Yulu affectionately took Guan Guiren's hand and said, "Sister, can you speak further?"

Guan Guiren's face remained unchanged and nodded. The two walked aside. Yao Yulu saw that she had gone far away, so she asked.

"Sister, what sound did you hear on the day Sister Ning fell into the water?"

Guan Guiren has obviously guessed what Yao Yulu was going to say. His face remained unchanged, and then he shook his head. "Sister, the queen has said that Sister Ning has fallen into this matter. Yulu, why do you have to bother about this matter again?"

"But it's not known whether it's really a mistake or being harmed, right?" Yao Yulu stopped and looked at Guan Guiren and said that she should know something after listening to Guan Guiren's words, but she obviously dared not say it. So the one who framed Sister Ning must be the favorite concubine. Although Yao Yulu had previously speculated that it was Xiao Shufei, she suffered from no evidence, and the speculation was just speculation.

"Sister, in this palace, you can't talk nonsense. If some things have passed, don't pursue them anymore. In the end, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of coquettishness. After all, my sister has something to do, so she will leave first." After saying that, Guan Guiren turned around and left directly, and Yao Yulu did not move, just thinking about her words.

Yao Yulu turned around and looked at the Moon Rose Palace. A lot of things happened here. It has long been not as calm as when she lived here. Thinking of the word calm, Yao Yulu couldn't help smiling. How can it be calm here? Are there few undercurrents surging under this so-called calm?

Yao Yulu returned to the palace, and three days later was the Empress Dowager's birthday. Although a talented man died, people seemed to have a tacit understanding and never mentioned this matter, as if there was no such person in the palace.

Yao Yulu yawned and finally embroidered the hundred-life picture, and fatigue surged up. Yao Yulu did not care that it was daytime, but lay directly on **.

"Wu'er, if anyone wants to see me, just say that I'm sick and don't see the guests, do you know?" Yao Yulu ordered.

"I know, little master." Wuer went out and closed the door. Yao Yulu fell asleep at ease. When she woke up, it was already noon, and she also felt sore all over, so she got up.

Walking to the front hall, Wuer handed her a cup of hot tea. She sat on a chair and took a sip. "Where's Pang Xiao?"

"Return to the little master, my aunt hasn't returned yet." Wuer said, "Does the little master pass on the meal?"

"Well, pass it on." Yao Yulu rubbed her neck and said.

Seeing that the meal was almost finished, Lv Panxiao came back. Yao Yulu couldn't help wondering, "Where have you been? Have you been there all morning?"

"Little Lord, I'm just going to inquire about what color of clothes the Empress Dowager's birthday concubines are wearing, just in case." Lv Pangxiao wiped the sweat on his forehead and said.

"Auntie, there are still three days before the Empress Dowager's birthday. Isn't it a little early for you to inquire now?" Xiao Xuanzi said, Yao Yulu looked up at Xiao Xuanzi and always felt that Xiao Xuanzi always cared about the Empress Dowager, and there seemed to be something unusual in his eyes that Yao Yulu couldn't guess what it was.

"I'm also worried about our little master. After all, the queen has repeatedly said that she can't make a trip. Of course, she should be more serious." Lv Pangxiao said.

Yao Yulu couldn't help nodding, "My aunt has always been as careful as dust, and I can rest assured that I have an aunt in everything."

"Lord, you made fun of me again, but I really didn't hear anything this morning." Lv Pangxiao spoke helplessly.

"After all, there are still three days left, and it's really a little early to inquire." Yao Yulu opened her mouth faintly and thought of the jade hairpin given by the queen. I don't know whether to wear it on the Empress Dowager's birthday or not? If she didn't wear it, she would be caught by the queen. The queen said such a sentence that day and couldn't help sighing. Her head hurt a little and she no longer thought about it.
