Princess, she is playing again

Chapter 49 Who is the owner of the East Wing

"Thank you, Miss San, for helping me speak," Mrs. Li said to Xu Miaoran pretending to be calm, shaking her skirt.

"Li Nanny should know that my eldest sister is now the king of the county, and she is far less easy to talk to than before. If next time Li Nanny still carelessly provokes her, then no one will intercede for you .”

Xu Miaoran's voice was still soft, but the warning implied in it made Mrs. Li fearful.

It was she who ignored it just now. When she was in the waiting mansion, she heard from the old sisters that Xu Zhaoning was much stronger than before. She didn't pay attention to it, so she lost the first battle.

Seeing that Nanny Li's eyes turned, there was a little more genuine respect on her face, and she bowed towards Xu Miaoran, "What Miss San said is that the mother-in-law must pay more attention."

Xu Miaoran caressed the dark lines on her sleeves, without saying a word.

Mrs. Li took the initiative to take two steps forward, "The old lady asked the eldest lady to come here to pray for blessings, but it has a deep meaning, does the third lady know?"

Xu Miaoran paused her movements, glanced at Mrs. Li with a half-smile, and chuckled, "How can Miaoran not understand what Nanny Li is talking about? Grandmother asked her elder sister to come here because she is not in good health and needs to be older. Is my sister praying for you?"

Mrs. Li's face froze, she retracted her words, and echoed, "Yes, the third lady is right, the old lady simply needs the eldest lady to pray for her."

Xu Miaoran glanced at Mrs. Li, hummed and went back to her room.

After lunch, under the big tree not far from the entrance of the East Wing Courtyard, Xu Miaoran grabbed the handkerchief and asked the girl Rose next to her, "But did you find out?"

Yue Ji leaned forward and said in a low voice: "I heard that this nobleman is here to ask for medicine, and the people around him are all masters. Miss can't be wrong."

Xu Miaoran's eyes were deep, yes, that's what she thought.Thinking of this, she raised her foot and walked forward.

"Please stop this girl, this is not a place for you."

The guard at the door pulled out his sword and stopped Xu Miaoran. The cold air of the long sword was so frightening that Xu Miaoran took two steps back.

"Little brother, I have the recipe requested by your master, please pass it on for me."

Xu Miaoran spoke very fast, with a serious expression, but the guard opened his eyes wide and looked at his companion, who quickly turned around, while he stayed where he was, with his long sword two points forward, a distance away from Xu Miaoran. extremely close.

"Who are you! If you talk nonsense again, don't blame my sword for not having eyes."

"I'm Xu Miaoran, the third lady of Zhongyonghou's Mansion. I have the recipe requested by your master. Please pass it on to me." Xu Miaoran frowned, and said the words again, this time putting her identity on the list. first place.

She thought that relying on her understanding of the person inside, she would definitely come out to see her after hearing the name of the Zhongyonghou Mansion and the word "good prescription".

But after a while, the guard who had left turned back and unceremoniously drove Xu Miaoran out, "Let's go, let's go, why did the young lady of the Zhongyonghou Mansion appear in Huangjue Temple? Even the imperial concubine's natal family dared to impersonate, how bold it is!"

"No, brother guard, listen to me, I..."

"There's nothing to say. My master is resting. If you disturb him, can you bear the responsibility?"

The guard was very impatient, and pushed Xu Miaoran away as he spoke, Xu Miaoran didn't expect that she had declared herself as her family, but she still couldn't be seen by the other party, she was very annoyed, she was pushed staggered for a while, and nearly fell to the ground .

Fortunately, Rose stepped forward to support her in due course.

"Miss, why don't we go back first?" Rose persuaded in a low voice, worried that if her lady persisted, the meeting would not look good.

Xu Miaoran glanced into the courtyard, there was a flash of bright yellow in the courtyard, which hurt her eyes, but also strengthened her confidence.

She lowered her head and thought for a while, and when she looked up again, her eyes had returned to indifference, and she bowed in the direction of the guard, "Thank you, brother guard, if your master wakes up, please pass it on for me, and say that Miaoran has something important to tell .”

"Go, go! Why are you so thick-skinned? My words are so obvious that I still don't understand."

The guard became even more impatient, cursing, Xu Miaoran's complexion darkened, she turned around and walked slowly towards the West Wing courtyard.

Xu Zhaoning, who saw the whole process in his eyes, lazily leaned against the tree trunk, playing with the jade flute in his hand, with an extremely calm face.

She could hear clearly Xu Miaoran's words just now, first someone asked for a good prescription, and then there was an important matter to tell, such obvious pertinence showed that Xu Miaoran already knew who lived in the East Wing Courtyard.

But what was surprising was that the people in the courtyard did not come out to see Xu Miaoran, did they feel that the conditions Xu Miaoran provided were not enough to attract him, or did Xu Miaoran guess the wrong person?
Who is the person living in the east chamber?

With Xu Miaoran's departure, the east chamber returned to calm again, and the two guards on the left and right of the door stood firm like door gods.

Xu Zhaoning put the jade flute to his lips, the sound of the flute was soothing, a bird flew over in a hurry, and landed on Xu Zhaoning's shoulders and the branches beside him.

After a while of chirping, the birds left, and Xu Zhaoning also got the information he wanted.

There are two owners in the courtyard, and both of them have extraordinary backgrounds. They checked in yesterday afternoon. One of them seems to be weak, and there are a lot of medicinal materials in the accompanying items.

After listening to the bird's language, Xu Zhaoning already had a rough guess in his heart, and just waited for the right opportunity to verify it.

Back in the west chamber, Mingyue walked over quickly, and asked Xu Zhaoning where he had been just now, hesitating to speak.

"Go out for a stroll, what's the matter?" Xu Zhaoning didn't intend to tell Mingyue what happened to her just now, and Mingyue's reservations became clear in an instant, and then she shook her head, "It's okay, this Huangjue Temple is huge, if Miss wants to go shopping, you can." Let Mingyue go together."

"Okay," Xu Zhaoning smiled secretively.

In the evening, as night fell, candles were lit everywhere in the West Wing Courtyard, and it was time for dinner.

Mrs. Li brought four dishes and one soup to the table one by one, "Miss, hurry up and eat while it's hot."

Xu Zhaoning looked at the meals on the table, they were all extremely simple home-cooked dishes, but the colors of two of the dishes were not quite right.

"Dare to ask Madam, did you bring this food out from the dining hall yourself, and it has not been handled by others?"

"What does Missy mean by this?"

Mrs. Li froze, then forced herself to calm down, and asked Xu Zhaoning loudly.

"It doesn't mean anything else, just a question to Mammy by the way. After all, the Huangjue Temple is built in a deep mountain. If Mammy accidentally let bugs with short eyes touch our food on the road, it would be very bad."

"Miss has the time to worry about such irrelevant things, why not eat half a bowl of rice tonight, after all, I will start fasting tomorrow."

Xu Zhaoning's eyes darkened, it's good, things are getting more and more interesting.
