Chapter 437: Quirks


Isn't it said that the palace is well guarded, and even a bird flies in and out, and the secret guards know it well?

Why is it that no one knows that there are secret guards coming in and out of Songhe Courtyard?

Shen Yue was confused, so she asked directly.

Qin Qi said, "In the past, the palace was indeed well guarded, and there was no blind spot.

There were nine hundred-year-old trees in the palace, which were well-proportioned.

They were where the secret guards stayed.

As long as there were no people on the trees, no movement in the palace could escape the secret guards.

"There was originally a tree in front of Songhe Courtyard, and the secret guard was on it, so he could have a clear view of Songhe Courtyard.

However, after the old prince died, the century-old tree also died."

Originally, the prince wanted to transplant another one, but a century-old tree, not to mention how difficult it is to move into the palace, and it is extremely difficult for a century-old tree to survive when transplanted.

When the prince suggested it, the old princess blocked it.

She said that Songheyuan was where she lived and it was in the northwest corner.

It did not involve the secrets of the palace.

Outsiders only knew that the palace was strictly guarded.

How could they know that a century-old tree had died in the palace?

, the guard relaxed.

Besides, even if someone breaks in from Songheyuan, can they still escape the eyes of the secret guards and steal military secrets in the front yard study?

This is simply impossible.

Whether the big tree in front of Songheyuan is dead or alive is not that important.

On the contrary, the palace transplanted a century-old tree, which reminds those who are interested that if someone sneaks in, it will be more difficult to steal things.

God, it's easy to destroy a few trees.

What the old princess said was exactly what the prince was worried about.

Transplanting a century-old tree would definitely arouse speculation about Feifei.

After weighing the importance, the prince gave up the idea, but still strengthened the defense outside Songhe Courtyard.

But who would have thought that there would be secret guards coming in and out of Songhe Courtyard.

Shen Yue felt that the secret guard belonged to the old princess, but Qin Qi and Qin Liu did not make random guesses.

They would just wait until the prince and the prince came back to report the matter to them, and they would do as they were told.

Shen Yue was also curious, "How did that century-old tree die?"

She felt that it was unusual for the tree to die.

Qin Qi said, "He was eaten to death by termites."

Termites ate up the roots of the big tree, and the leaves of the evergreen tree gradually withered and turned yellow.

By the time the prince realized something was wrong, there was no way to save him.

At that time, the tree collapsed and so many termites were dug out at the roots that it took a long time to kill them.

Time, thinking about it now, still makes me feel sick.

But after that, the prince became more concerned about the other century-old trees, and there was no such thing as a century-old tree being eaten to death by termites.

Shen Yue thought of the cold look in the old princess's eyes.

She always felt that the old princess's domineering attitude was based on a kind of confidence.

Once the century-old tree died, the defense of Songheyuan was lax.

Although it would not allow people to steal the secrets of the palace, it would be much easier for the old princess to get in and out of the palace if she had secret guards.

You can't just send a message and have the maids and servants go in and out of the palace.

Not to mention delaying things, there are too many times in and out, and there is no guarantee that no one will notice that something is wrong.

The secret guards of the palace are very alert.

Qin Liu told him everything he knew.

Shen Yue knew that he was weak due to poisoning and asked him to detoxify first.

If he had anything to say, he could wait until Chu Muyuan and the prince came back to talk about it.

As soon as he finished speaking, Poria came in from outside, with his back to the tub, and said with a blushing face, "Prince Concubine, Concubine Gu asked the maid to deliver several boxes of Dongzhu."

Shen Yue was stunned when she heard this.

Really delivered

This was beyond her expectation.

Shen Yue stepped out of the house and saw Concubine Gu's confidant, Mother Zhao, coming with two maids.

The two maids were dressed in ordinary clothes.

They were holding big red lacquered wooden trays with two boxes on them.

That box was much more exquisite than the one Chu Ang gave to Zhao Chanyun before, and was inlaid with many gems.

When Shen Yue saw it, she smiled and said, "I've prepared the apology ceremony so quickly."

Mother Zhao came forward to greet Shen Yue with a look that could not be said to show much respect, but her etiquette was so polite that no one could fault it.

She said, "Concubine Gu has been managing the internal affairs of the palace for more than ten years, and she has handled more than this amount of money.

I'm afraid The imperial concubine was in a hurry, so she asked her servant to deliver it."

This is telling Shen Yue that the prince trusts Concubine Gu as the housekeeper, and tells her not to try to steal Concubine Gu's stewardship.

Concubine Gu has a deep foundation in the palace and cannot be shaken by a newly arrived princess. of.

Shen Yue listened and smiled but said nothing.

With that said, she told Banxia and Zisu, "Grow better.

If you don't hurry up and pick up the things, please invite Mother Zhao and the others to come in for tea."

Banxia hurriedly stepped forward, while Zhao's mother said, "The apology gift has been delivered by the servant.

Concubine Gu and the old princess are very anxious, and there are many people outside watching.

I hope the prince concubine and the princess will not delay."

Shen Yue smiled and said, "This is natural."

Banxia and Zisu took the box, and Mother Zhao resigned.

After they left, Shen Yue turned around and went back to the house.

Banxia and Zisu carried the heavy Dongzhu and followed Shen Yue into the house.

Thinking that these four boxes of Dongzhu were all given away, the two maids couldn't bear to part with them.

After entering the room, Shen Yue poured herself tea and said with a smile, "Put it down first."

Zisu said, "Do you want me to go and inform the princess?"

Shen Yue nodded, "I want to inform the princess that I won't go to the Kong family today."

Zi Su was stunned, Zhao’s mother had just urged the concubine not to delay, but it was still early now, so why didn’t she go?

Could it be that the Crown Princess is too tired?

That must be the case.

Zi Su covered her mouth and smiled before retreating.

Shen Yue laughed so hard that she couldn't understand.

Could it be that this maid was enlightened and smart enough to know that she planned to take possession of all these Dongzhu?

Shen Yue opened the box, admired it, and had lunch.

After lunch, it was almost time for Qin Liu to steam his medicine.

Shen Yue went to check on him and felt relieved when she saw that all the poison in his body was discharged and his life was saved.

It was okay, and since I was feeling sleepy, I went to bed to rest.

Shen Yue usually slept on the small couch for more than half an hour.

This time she went to bed to rest, which meant that she would sleep for at least more than an hour.

Before going to bed, she told Zisu that she was looking through medical books to find a way to cure General Kong's leg as soon as possible.

She would not see anyone who came.

If anyone wants to tell her, just say that if she interrupts her treatment, she will no longer treat this patient.

That's how quirky it is.

Then, he fell into bed and fell asleep.

When she fell asleep, Concubine Gu and the old princess were very angry, and an apology gift was prepared for her.

She said she was busy reading medical books, so she said she wouldn't go.

You can't disturb her yet, otherwise she will give up and not treat General Kong.

The apology ceremony was very heavy, perhaps as big as a leg of General Kong?

Concubine Gu didn't hesitate and regretted asking Mother Zhao to send the apology gift to Shen Yue.

She was provoked by Shen Yue and deliberately sent several boxes of Dongzhu to suppress Shen Yue's arrogance.

If Shen Yue didn't go, she would Let Mother Zhao take the things away.

With Shen Yue's instructions in front of them, Banxia and Zisu ignored Mother Zhao. s::
