Chapter 59 Goodbye Emperor (9)

Shijiu didn't stop, and his tone was slow: "I know that people won't pick it, so I waited until there was no one at night before coming back."

The maid still felt bad, and persuaded: "Concubine Wen, now Concubine Li is in charge of the palace, she has very strict rules, if she is found out, it will not end well."

In the time of speaking, Shi Jiu had already grabbed several precious flowers in his hands, the maid's face was flushed with anxiety, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Shi Jiu glanced at her, put the flowers in her arms into her arms, and patted her on the shoulder comfortingly: "Don't worry, there are so many flowers here, if I cut some flowers secretly, no one will know, and even if someone knows Yes, and I’m the one who stands up to it, so you won’t be punished.”

"What you have to do now is to hold the flowers for me properly."

The palace lady felt relieved when she heard Shi Jiu's words, but she was still very nervous. Those who followed Shi Jiu and held the flowers and looked around were afraid of encountering patrolling people.

Shi Jiu walked around the flowers in the Imperial Garden, cutting off two or three flowers, and refused to go back after about a stick of incense.

The following maids, except for the two carrying the lamps, each of them held a bunch of flower branches in their arms.

The maid close to her reminded Shi Jiu in a low voice: "Concubine Wen, we should go back, if you cut it off, we won't be able to take it."

Shi Jiu, who was half squatting, turned around when he heard this, and saw that they were really struggling to hold the flowers, so he clapped his hands and stood up and said, "Let's go, go back."

The maids looked at each other cautiously and breathed a sigh of relief.

The palace maids were worried all the way, afraid of being seen by the patrolling guards and reporting it to Empress Li, it would be a serious matter.

But fortunately, I didn't meet anyone along the way, and it's not normal for things to go smoothly.

Shi Jiu didn't care about these at all, and excitedly started looking for vases to arrange flowers when he came back.

A vase of flowers had just been placed, and before she had time to put the vase on the bookshelf, she heard noisy footsteps outside.

Shi Jiu frowned, handed the vase to the maid, and asked the maid to put it on the bookshelf, then turned and walked out the door.

Her courtyard was illuminated by lanterns as bright as day, and there was a group of people standing under the steps. The leader was a woman wearing a palace dress embroidered with peony flowers, with exquisite makeup, and supported by two maids on the left and right. It looks elegant and luxurious.

The palace maid who followed behind reminded her in a low voice: "Concubine Wen, this is Concubine Li."

Shi Jiu raised his eyebrows, and a decent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Concubine Li came to my place late at night as a guest, but I haven't entertained you enough, come in and sit?"

Concubine Li heard the sarcasm of her late-night visit in her words, she smiled at her without a smile on her face and said: "I won't go in and sit down, Ben Gong is here to confirm something."

Shi Jiu didn't force her to come in, but just gave her an expression of listening attentively.

Concubine Li glanced at the maid behind her, and said in a stern tone: "The flowers in the imperial garden have been destroyed, and someone saw that it was done by the maid in your palace."

"According to the palace rules, all the maids involved in this matter will be given [-] slaps, and they will be sent to the Clothes Bureau."

The maid behind Shi Jiu shook her body violently when she heard this, Shi Jiu was still smiling.

Seeing that she didn't react, Li Fei quickly flashed a calculation in the depths of her eyes.

She waved to the eunuch behind her, and the eunuch rushed behind Shi Jiu.
