Secret agent crossing: Overbearing prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 252

"Why, what's wrong?" Mo Qingli looked at them pretending to be surprised, and smiled, "This snack came from the palace. It's not uncommon for a kitchen girl or something to come out of the house."

Zhao Richeng and his wife looked at each other, and Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "We didn't know that dim sum can only be made in the palace, but we recruited it when we recruited the cook, and seeing that her hands and feet are quite neat, we stayed. "

"Oh? That's really a coincidence. It's really not easy to eat dim sum in the palace here, but it makes me miss coming from the capital. Call her here, and I will reward her well." Mo Qingli said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhao had no choice but to call the maid who had learned this dessert from Pomegranate before.

"What's your name?" Mo Qingli saw that this person was the maid who served Mrs. Zhao before, and his name seemed to be Caixia.

"My maidservant's name is Caixia." said the servant girl.

Mo Qingli asked, "Did you make this dessert?"

"It was done by slaves."

"You used to work in the palace?" Mo Qingli asked.

The servant girl immediately said the excuse she had prepared, "This dessert was learned by the servant girl later. The servant girl was lucky enough to learn a few of this dessert made by the cook who was recruited in the mansion before. Later, she got a sudden illness and died. , I don’t know if that elder sister came from the palace, we don’t even know.”

"So that's how it is." Mo Qingli nodded, "Your craftsmanship is good, and the cooking is delicious. I will reward you with this ring." She took off the ring on her hand and threw it to the servant girl. Holding the ring inlaid with pearls, the maid couldn't help but kowtow repeatedly.

Mo Qingli looked at the almond cake, thinking that Pomegranate must have been killed by Mrs. Zhao, who couldn't play with such superb skills.Now things are different, and she can't do anything for pomegranate, she sighed in her heart, and it passed.

Seeing that Mo Qingli didn't have much expression on her face, Mrs. Zhao was a little relieved, and said with a smile: "If you like it, let this girl serve you. It is her blessing that she can serve you."

"That's unnecessary, the maid arranged by Madam served her well." Mo Qingli said.

"Be careful, we bought you because of your pity. Everything in our house is fine, especially the rules." The butler here led two girls in maidservants into the sheriff's house. The backyard of the mansion.

Zheng Zirui looked up at the winding corridors, as well as the servant girls passing by, his eyes were calm, Xiaoping was a little nervous, worried that he would reveal his secrets, Zheng Zirui patted her hand, and smiled at the housekeeper : "Thanks for the housekeeper's help, for saving our two little girls in danger, we will definitely do our best."

The housekeeper looked at Zheng Zirui's appearance, and then at Xiaoping's appearance. Zheng Zirui deliberately used bitter ginger juice to turn her complexion yellow, which was not very eye-catching, but she asked Xiaoping to dress herself up beautifully. This is a more attractive idea, and it was precisely after seeing Xiaoping's watery face that the housekeeper came up with the idea to buy the two of them.

"From now on, you will serve the young master, and you will do chores in the yard outside, and you will learn the rules to serve inside." The housekeeper told Xiaoping to go inside, and let Zheng Zirui do chores outside.

Xiaoping bit her lip, but Zheng Zirui looked indifferent.

After the housekeeper took the two of them to Zhao Hao's yard, he explained to the maids in the yard that there was a lack of people in the yard after Xiao He disappeared. She scolded her and kicked her out, and Madam also meant that some newcomers need to be added to get rid of bad luck.

"Be more careful inside." Zheng Zirui confessed.

Xiaoping nodded.

"It's hard for you to bother and still think about it." Mo Qingli said that she would come to visit Zhao Hao. Mrs. Zhao was very grateful and took her to Zhao Hao's yard. When she saw the housekeeper, she asked, "Housekeeper, what do you do here?" what?"

The housekeeper hurriedly said respectfully: "If you go back to Madam, this is a newly bought maid for the young master's room. It is a rough envoy and a servant in the house. She is explaining the rules, and then I will ask Madam to take a look."

Mrs. Zhao started watching directly here.

Zheng Zirui only glanced at Mo Qingli. Although she changed her appearance, Mo Qingli could still recognize her.

"Master, do you know what to do?" Mo Qingli asked.

Zheng Zirui understood, and immediately lowered his head and said, "This servant has some basic knowledge of medicine."

Mo Qingli said indifferently: "That's great. I often say that the people around me don't know medicine, and it's troublesome to teach them. There is someone who knows medicine in the young master's room. Everything is much cheaper."

That night, Zheng Zirui was sent by Mrs. Zhao to serve Mo Qingli. Compared with serving Zhao Hao, it is more important to please Mo Qingli.

"It seems that they are really flattering you, but they all regard you as officials around the emperor. If they know your true identities, will they see that your knees can't stand straight?" Zheng Zirui also had a heart in half a day After inquiring about some situations, he spoke directly.

Mo Qingli looked at her upright posture, and said lightly: "I don't know if they can stand upright on their knees, but if they see a rough envoy who is sent here speak so confidently, their jaws will drop in surprise. .”

Zheng Zirui raised his hand to pour water for her, and subconsciously took a sip after pouring it. After realizing it, he smiled and said, "I've never served anyone before, so I'm really not used to it."

"That's because you are too stupid."

Thinking about how she played many identities back then, she served both the queen mother and the empress, she also served the magistrate's wife when she came here, and she also fought with Zheng Zirui, all of which have not been exposed.

"Could it be that you can do better than me? Although I have heard stories about you back then, I do admire you somewhat, but you can learn the ability to serve others with ease? "Zheng Zirui didn't believe it.

Zheng Zirui is now sitting on the small couch, eating two bites of snacks, although he is wearing the clothes of a rough servant girl, he looks like a nobleman, his demeanor cannot be covered by clothes.

Seeing her like this, Mo Qingli, as the second head of the family, has always been superior to others. I am afraid she is not in such a mess. If she wants to hide her identity and pretend to be a servant, Mo Qingli said: "Of course I can do better than you. The person I play is not as good as you. It was discovered."

Zheng Zirui didn't take it seriously, "It must be someone letting you go. With your posture, you are so conspicuous wherever you go. Wouldn't it be a loss if you were only a servant girl? It must be an ordinary person who can let you pretend to be a servant girl. No sight at all."

"If you say that, you're not scolding yourself." Mo Qingli sat opposite her, and she didn't need her to pour tea for herself. She poured herself a cup of tea, and when Zheng Zirui said this, she bent her lips. .

Zheng Zirui was a little surprised, looked at Mo Qingli and said, "You mean, you also played the role of servant by my side? How come, didn't you come to Yixian Island with Jun Shecang?"

Mo Qingli laughed when she heard the words, "Of course I am not with him. If I were with him, he would never go to Yixian Island. In fact, I was picked up from here by your Luo family. The second leader , I also tasted my craft back then, why, you don’t recognize me?”

"You are Shi Lan?" Zheng Zirui opened his eyes wide, looked at Mo Qingli who was smiling slightly, shook his head and said, "Impossible, Shi Lan, isn't Shi Lan already dead? If you are Shi Lan, you can do it." Dafangfang pretended to fall into the water and was rescued, can't he continue to hide by my side?"

"I think so too. He didn't want me to take risks, so he just gave me an identity by his side. Otherwise, the current situation would be hard to say. I'm already ready to be obedient by your side as the second leader." Mo Qingli said.

Zheng Zirui said with emotion: "Sure enough, you people in Beijing are very calculating and calculating. It's helpless for the elder brother to lose in your hands. I, Zheng Zirui, have never admired anyone, but you, I really admire you."

Mo Qingli lowered her eyes, "We are just a way to get out of the court. You don't need such calculations at sea, because everyone is working on their own, and everyone is busy. You have to deal with the wind and waves at sea. , such a life full of uncertainties will inspire each of you to move forward, so you are all capable but less minded, this is not a shortcoming."

Thinking about those people who died in the capital, they were all victims of court battles and family house battles. Everyone must have a great spirit to survive the calculations of others.

Such a situation was beyond the imagination of Zheng Zirui, a person from the sea, and she also could not see the current scenery and how many bones were stepped on behind her.

"Since he likes you so much, why does he let you go into danger? Could it be that my Luo family really poses such a big threat to your Liukong Kingdom?" Zheng Zirui was puzzled, "He is the king of a country now, you shouldn't be here Do you enjoy happiness in that resplendent palace?"

Mo Qingli coughed twice, and Zheng Zirui said, "Do you have a stubborn illness?" After asking, she shook her head and denied it, "No, if you have a stubborn illness, why would you practice martial arts? There are really too many stories, if not in such a situation, I must ask you to tell me all of them."

"So you still know what situation you are in. I thought you just thought you had returned to the first-line island." Mo Qingli always spoke so mercilessly.

Zheng Zirui frowned after hearing this, "No matter where you are, as long as you want to live freely, you can live freely."

People in the sea have always been open-minded, and Mo Qingli has seen enough, but this is not the sea, but Yongcheng, which is still in danger, so she confessed: "Okay, you enter the mansion, restrain yourself, the mansion There should be spies from the Luo family, do you know that?"

"I only know a few of them. I don't know if these people are loyal or not, so I sent them all away." Zheng Zirui leaned over and told Mo Qingli the names and identities of those people.

Mo Qingli nodded.

In the next few days, the Sheriff's Mansion was not peaceful. The gardener in the garden dried up the peony that the master liked the most, the lady's clothes were torn, and the maid who took care of the clothes was sent to the window.

"I don't know what's going on these days. These servants are becoming more and more careless. It's okay if this continues. Seeing how busy we are, they know how to hide." Mrs. Zhao punished another broken teacup at night The servant girl said to Zhao Richeng angrily.

Zhao Richeng waved his hands and said impatiently: "What's the matter? Don't talk about it. The most urgent thing is to catch those Luo family members and interrogate them. Don't let them bite us."
