She didn't bring any pearls or agate. After all, this was the emperor's palace. Not many people dare to wander around here at this time.
The palace is much more grand than the palace, with golden glazed tiles and vermilion palace walls. Don't be solemn and solemn.
Lin Mengya and Bai Su were hiding in the corner, but their eyes fell on the guards in the distance who were constantly circulating.
"I have already investigated. There are four groups of these guards. They patrol continuously day and night for 12 hours. No one except the imperial doctor can enter. Those concubines come to greet them every day. They can only stand there. Outside the palace, entrust the eunuchs to bring the things you have brought in."
Bai Su whispered in her ear, and Lin Mengya nodded.
The guards are so tight, it seems that the possibility of sneaking in is too low.
"These guards, can they take a break during their shifts?"
Bai Su shook his head solemnly. In fact, the guards in the palace were much smarter than those in the palace. Even if she is good at martial arts, she is still difficult to get close to.
"That's it. We are trapped in this palace now. Sooner or later we will find a chance to get in. Don't pry for the next few days, lest you be discovered and cause trouble."
Things in the palace were more complicated than she imagined. She has already thought of how to suppress Duotian Root. As long as she can prepare neutralizing medicine and then pour it on the herbs near Duotian Root, the power of the medicine can slowly make Duotian Root wither. Furthermore, those herbs no longer contain this toxin.
It's a delicate job, and luckily these days, not many herbs survive. Duotiangen is also in a state of suspended animation, otherwise, this method may not work.
The consequence of being in a good mood was that Lin Mengya accidentally ate too much at night. She has a habit of tossing and turning at night if there is food in her stomach.
So, naturally, I took Bai Su and walked for who knows how far.
Everyone said that the palace was magnificent, but in Lin Mengya's opinion, the palace was full of red walls and green tiles, but it was actually very boring.
After walking for a while, Lin Mengya felt that everything was the same everywhere and there was nothing to see, so she had no choice but to go back to the small courtyard with Bai Su.
But just as he turned around, he felt a small rubber ball hit his waist.
Looking down, I saw a colorful takraw ball. It was small and delicate, and seemed to be a child's toy.
Picking it up casually, Lin Mengya looked at it curiously. Although it was covered in dust, it could be seen that it was well maintained. Just when I was curious, a voice came from behind and yelled in a milky voice:
"Where did this slave come from? She picked up my prince's ball and refused to return it. Could it be that she wants to keep it for herself?"
With such a loud tone, Lin Mengya turned around and looked at the little boy who was not even as tall as her waist in a funny way.
A soft tofu-like little face, with a pair of watery apricot eyes. Her pink mouth was pouting at the moment, as if she was very dissatisfied with her.
The maroon clothes on his body have long been stained with mud. He doesn't look like the prince, he looks like a little mud monkey.
Yuxue's cute appearance makes her look like a mini little dragon Tianyu. Although the brothers of the Long family all look human, this child especially looks like Long Tianyu.
Lin Mengya immediately became interested, squatting in front of the child, playing with the sepak takraw ball in her hand.
"You said this ball is yours, but this is an ownerless thing I picked up. Do you have any evidence to prove that this ball is yours?"
As if squeezing his little face, Lin Mengya restrained her claws that were about to move. Seeing the other person's little face turn red, my heart felt extremely happy. This feeling is like bullying Long Tianyu!
"You - no one in this palace knows that this ball belongs to my prince, please return it to me quickly. Otherwise, I will ask my mother-in-law to punish you."
The little child, resisting the urge to cry, threatened Lin Mengya in a serious manner.
Lin Mengya couldn't hold it back, so she stretched out her hand and gently pinched the little guy's tender face. I screamed in my heart that I really wanted to take the little guy away. This feeling was simply extraordinary!
"What are you doing? You bitch! How dare you be rude to this prince!"
The little prince did not expect that the woman in front of him would dare to reach out and pinch his little cheek. In the palace, when the maids and eunuchs saw him, they would only salute and say hello to him.
Suddenly, the grievance in my heart surged like a tide. However, the Long family's natural reluctance to admit defeat prevented him from surrendering easily.
Therefore, after realizing that the struggle was useless, the baby teeth that had not been completely replaced immediately bit the back of Lin Mengya's hand fiercely.
Yo? Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and looked at the little guy biting her like a little wolf.
Although it didn't hurt much, what she didn't expect was that this little mini Long Tianyu was actually a stubborn little guy.
"Hurry up and let go, the person in front of you is not a cheap maid, but Princess Yu!"
Bai Su became anxious and blurted out Lin Mengya's identity.
But the little guy blinked his big eyes and looked at her blankly. It was just his teeth, but they no longer bit her hard.
"Why don't you bite? I saw you were biting quite vigorously just now?"
Lin Mengya withdrew her hand and ignored the small teeth marks on it. Just think of it as being bitten by a puppy. I couldn't help but think of the two little guys at home.
She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Ever since she came here, there were always all kinds of things filling her life. Inadvertently, I missed a lot of beauty.
She couldn't help but reveal a self-deprecating smile. She was really an irresponsible person.
"Are you the Third Emperor's Wife?"
Xingzi's eyes suddenly widened and her mouth opened slightly, as if she had seen something terrible.
Lin Mengya just thought this little guy was so cute, so she pinched his little face and played with him:
"Yes, I am your third prince. I remember you just said, asking me where I am a cheap maid. It seems that I have to go back and tell your third brother that you insulted me."
She just wanted to amuse the child, but the little guy burst into tears. One sound was louder than the other, and it was simply miserable.
"Okay, okay, just now you were as brave as a little wolf. I was just teasing you, I won't tell your third brother. Now, can you tell me who you are?"
This little guy's face changed really quickly, with a few crystal tears hanging from his curved eyelashes. After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, he said softly:
"My name is Long Yinghua, and I am the tenth prince. Third sister-in-law, please don't tell my third brother, okay?"
Lin Mengya was secretly proud, looking at the little guy's fawning eyes, she didn't expect Long Tianyu to be so intimidating to children.
After pretending to hesitate for a moment, he nodded. This little guy is very interesting. He looks like he is only six or seven years old. I'm afraid it's because of my young age that I haven't contracted the crude habits in the palace.
"Thank you, Sister-in-law, I'll give this ball to you."
Ying Hua said sweetly, but there was clearly a bit of reluctance in his bright black eyes.
How could Lin Mengya bully a child? She handed it to him smoothly. Patted his little head and said:
"Give this ball back to you. I don't want a child to be fond of you. Don't worry, I won't tell your third brother, but in the future, you can't be so rude to others!"
Ying Hua nodded hurriedly and hugged the ball tightly in his arms, for fear of being snatched away.
However, a pair of eyes secretly glanced at the third sister-in-law in front of her.
"Okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. I think you ran out on your own. Do you have a maid or nurse by your side?"
She had been a little curious since just now. It was said that this child's clothes were not shabby. However, after talking to her for so long, why didn't she even see anyone who came out to look for her
Ying Hua also looked around, with a somewhat doubtful look in his eyes.
Lin Mengya felt pity. Although there were guards and eunuchs everywhere in the palace, the adults would definitely be anxious if the child was lost.
He stretched out his hand to Ying Hua, with a warm smile on his face, and said:
"Come, I'll take you back to the palace."
Ying Hua hesitated for a moment, but still put his fleshy little hand into Lin Mengya's palm.
One big and one small, under the protection of Bai Su, walked towards the deep palace.
Although I don't know where Ying Hua lives, the concubines' bedrooms are all in the inner courtyard. The place where she lives is a little outside the courtyard.
But after walking through three palace gates, there was still no one in sight.
The palace lanterns were already lit at dusk. At this moment, although there were dim lights as fingerprints, the quiet corridor still made people feel a little scared.
The doubts in Lin Mengya's heart became more and more intense. Something was wrong. Normally, every palace gate should be guarded by eunuchs or maids.
It's just getting dark, why is no one missing
Her naturally sharp intuition made her squeeze Ying Hua's little hand tightly. How did a young child 'just happen to' walk so far and then bump into her again
"Ying Hua, when you came out, where were the people who followed you?"
No one in the palace was cheering and cheering, let alone a minor prince like Ying Hua.
After thinking about it carefully, the little guy said:
"The wet nurse was left in the palace by the mother-in-law. I didn't like the others. So, I hid on purpose. I didn't come out until they were all gone."
The little guy's words were definitely correct, but Lin Mengya's heart thumped. After giving Bai Su a wary look, he bent down and picked up Ying Hua.
"Then let's play a game. After a while, I will take you to hide, and then quietly return to your mother's palace, okay?"
The child naturally agreed. Lin Mengya looked around and then disappeared into the darkness under the cover of Bai Su.
Ying Hua's eyes widened with excitement.
"From now on, no matter who we meet, you can't say anything? Otherwise, we will lose!"
