Chapter Eight
Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, Rufeng hid in the woods with the Wu brothers, paying attention to the movements at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion at any time.
"Your Highness, you've already done this now, why hasn't anyone come out yet?" After almost an hour of guarding, Wu Yi couldn't hold back.
"Wait a little longer, there will always be someone coming out." Rufeng whispered to comfort Wu Hu for impulse and was afraid that Wu Hu would make a bad thing.
After a while, the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was opened, and a maroon official sedan carried by four people came out of the door. Rufeng knew that the person sitting in the sedan must be Gao Zhao, the prime minister of Qin.
Gao Zhao is diligent and has gone out long ago. Why is this servant of the Gao family so lazy? No one has come out until now!
Looking at the official sedan chair that was leaving, thinking for a moment, Rufeng sighed softly. He was so anxious that his servants were all going to the side door, how could he wait at the main door?
"Wu Wei, take Wu Hu to the side gate on the east side to guard. If a servant comes out, follow him quietly and give me some silver to see if I can ask something. Wu Yi and I are here to guard. I have met Gao Chuang. If he passes here, I will definitely recognize him."
After hearing Rufeng's orders, Wu Wei responded and took his brother to the east door. Rufeng and Wu Yiran continued to guard the place, but no one was in and out again.
In less than an hour, Wu Wei rushed back.
"Your Highness, there is news!" He gasped, and his tone revealed excitement.
"Tell me quickly, I'm so anxious!" Wu Yi couldn't change his impatient attitude.
"We found out that the morning before yesterday, Gao Chuang did bring a girl back. The servant said that he saw him holding a girl, but he couldn't see the girl's appearance. However, Gao Chuang was not in the mansion and just sent the girl to the backyard, he was called away by the person sent by the Emperor of Qin."
"In this way, according to time, this girl is Yu Han. Fortunately, Gao Chuang is not here, and Yu Han is not at risk now." Rufeng stretched out his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief.
"But, I heard from the servant that Gao Chuang will come back in three days. If he is really a princess, we must rescue the princess within three days, otherwise..." Wu Wei did not dare to think about it anymore. Like the thousands of subjects of Zhao State, Princess Yuhan is their sacred goddess and cannot be desecrated by anyone.
"Wu Hu, go and find out which store this prime minister's mansion buys ingredients. We pretend to be guys and mix into the mansion with the ingredients."
"Okay, I'll go and inquire now!" Wu Hu always believed in Rufeng and knew that he could find a way to rescue Yuhan.
After the discussion was completed, they began to prepare separately. Wu Hu went to inquire, and Wu Wei and Wu Yi followed Rufeng to buy clothes and ingredients. The four of them agreed to meet in a tavern near the prime minister's mansion.
In the Gao Chuang room in the backyard of the Prime Minister, Yu Han had just finished washing and changed into a light blue Shu embroidered long skirt with red plums on the skirt. He tied the slender waist that could not be held by just a white brocade, tied a head of black hair into a Ruyi bun, and inserted a plum blossom jade hairpin as an embellishment. Although it was simple, it was fresh and elegant.
Xiao Cui and Yue'e placed the red bean meal porridge, Ruyi rolls and a few light side dishes on the table, stood on the left and right, serving Yuhan for dinner.
Yuhan sat at the sandalwood square table, showing an unhappy look on his face. The two little girls didn't know the reason, and thought Yuhan was feeling uncomfortable, so they hurriedly stepped forward to ask. How could they know that this delicate princess, known as the number one beauty in the Central Plains, was not happy with meat. How could she eat this table of vegetarian food!
According to the eating habits of the Prime Minister, breakfast is mostly light, and various porridge and snacks are essential. Only at noon and at night can the diet be rich.
Yuhan has already started to miss homesickness, not only her father and mother, but also the money fish belly, snow and moon lamb, and purse crab meat made by the imperial chef in the palace...
"Girl, is the breakfast prepared by Xiao Cui suitable for your appetite?" Xiao Cui, the little girl, was very clever. She saw the change in Yu Han's face and asked tentatively.
Yuhan's bright eyes were dull, and he was just thinking about how he was so excited that he noticed Xiao Cui's question.
"Girl, girl..." Xiao Cui called out twice before Yu Han woke up and looked at Xiao Cui in confusion, with a confused and cute look.
"Girl, Sister Xiao Cui is asking you that breakfast is suitable for your appetite..." Yue'e was young after all and was not steady enough. Seeing Yuhan was stunned, she couldn't help but smile.
"Uh, this porridge is delicious, I... like it very much..." Yuhan reluctantly swallowed the red bean porridge and squeezed out a smile. There was no way, she had never been interested in this vegetarian food. Even if she drank porridge, she had to eat side dishes such as peach kernel chicken and three fresh duck tongue.
Even if she doesn't like it, it's the Prime Minister's Mansion, not the Zhao State Palace, and she can only eat it.
After breakfast, Xiao Cui left the front yard to do business, leaving Yue'e, standing by.
In the colorful ceramic incense burner, the best spices are burned, and they smell it in their noses, and they only feel the ironing. Yuhan's mood is also infected and becomes particularly calm.
Yuhan leaned on the soft pillow, closing his eyes slightly, looking drowsy, but his mind was very clear. She was wondering how to attract the guards outside the door, and then replace the incense from the brocade bag with the incense, fascinate the people, and escape along the path.
She took a deep breath. Based on her understanding of incense, the incense burner was burned with Qianbu Xiang, the tribute from Nanjun. This incense stick is fragrant. After scenting people's muscles and bones, they will not cause any disease. It is the best among the spices.
Yuhan pondered for a moment and came up with a plan.
"Yue'e...What spices are you using in the incense burner?" Yu Han held up, his voice weak, pretending to be uncomfortable.
"Go back to the girl, this incense burner is Qianbuxiang, the tribute from Nanjun, which was given to the master by the emperor. The young master asked for some... " Yue'e replied proudly.
"That's it, no wonder I feel uncomfortable. Yue'e, please find a doctor to come and prescribe some medicine for me. I have never smelled this expensive spice, I'm afraid I'll be panting again..." After saying that, Yuhan pretended to be in a state of difficulty.
Yue'e had never seen this situation before, and she couldn't help but get confused and agreed to push the door and run out.
In the huge bedroom, Yu Han was the only one left.
Seeing Yue'e running away, Yuhan was not as good as wearing shoes, so she walked down the couch, lifted the incense burner, took out the incense slices, poured the prepared incense in, and put the kudzu flowers in her mouth. After a while, she felt that the fragrance in the room was strong enough, so she shouted: "Help, come, help..."
Yuhan's shouting was extremely delicate, revealing sadness and despair. When the guards outside the door heard it, they all ran towards the inner room.
They all know the importance of Yuhan and dare not make any mistakes.
If Yu Han had any mistakes, Gao Chuang might have killed them.
