Chapter 137 The Bitter Meat Scheme
Luo Lan took A Cai and A Hong on the stone road in the Imperial Garden. Two palace maids from Dening Palace followed closely behind, staring at the three people in front, as if they were afraid that the three of them would get lost at any time.
As he was about to walk out of the gate of the Imperial Garden, Luo Lan raised the handkerchief in his hand, covered her face and coughed lightly, blinked her eyes, and gave Ah Hong and Acai a wink. Ah Hong nodded instantly.
Suddenly, she hit A Cai with her elbow. A Cai turned around and looked at her with some displeasure, shouting:
"Are you blind? Why don't you look at the road?"
"Who told you to walk slowly? What's wrong with hitting you? No one will die."
"You can't hit me, you won't admit your mistake after hitting someone. You are really uneducated."
"Are you well educated? You're not a girl. If you have the ability, you can be a lady and pretend to be a noble person."
"Who are you talking about? Try to say another one?"
"Just say it, I just say it, you can just pretend to be noble, what's wrong? What can you do to me?"
The two of them became more and more fierce as they quarreled. Luo Lan looked at them, stood aside with her arms in her arms and watched quietly.
At this moment, A Cai suddenly looked at the two girls behind him who were at a loss, and suddenly pulled Ah Hong's arm to them, waved his arms and shouted:
"You judge me, are you watching it carefully? She obviously hit me, but she refused to admit it and apologize. Are you too much about her? "
Ah Hong said with anger without hesitation:
"What's wrong with hitting you? You won't hit you, what are you doing with fuss? You also comment on me. Is she a big deal? Who hasn't been careless yet, Ji?"
These two people were shouting here with each other. The two girls were at a loss by them. They looked at this and that, and they didn't notice that Luo Lan had disappeared.
After a quarrel, the two girls suddenly noticed that Luo Lan was missing. They looked around in panic, but where was there any trace of someone?
One of the girls stomped their feet, blushed and said angrily:
"What should I do? The Empress knows that she must beat us to death."
"Yes, the Empress asked us to look at her, but we didn't watch it. What should we do?"
After saying this, the two girls looked at A Cai and A Hong together.
One of them pointed alertly at the two of them and questioned them.
"I understand. You must have deliberately diverted our sight and then took the opportunity to let Princess Yu escape."
The other girl nodded with some understanding, "Yes, you must have deliberately left and go with us to confess your guilt."
Yan Luo, the two girls each pulled Ah Hong and A Cai and went to Dening Palace angrily.
After arriving at Dening Palace, he knelt in front of Concubine Chang. A Cai and A Hong looked reluctant, and the two girls hurriedly knelt on the ground and cried.
"Empress, just now on the road, they deliberately quarreled, separated us from Princess Yu, and then took the opportunity to let Princess Yu run away."
"Yes, they quarreled on purpose, let us judge. We were destined to be divine for a while. When we reacted, Princess Yu was gone."
Hearing this, Concubine Chang's brows frowned. She looked at Ah Hong and A Cai and asked slowly:
"If your Princess Yu wants to run away, she doesn't have to come to the palace to run away. Tell me, what did she do?"
A Cai pouted, turned her face to the side without saying a word.
Ah Hong also lowered her head and knelt on the spot and refused to speak.
Seeing that the two of them were not speaking, Concubine Chang raised her voice and shouted sternly:
"You two are not really asking me to hit you? Could it be that I want you to hit your board?"
Hearing this, Ah Hong hurriedly knelt down and begged.
"Grandmaster, please spare me. We don't know what the princess is going to do, we really don't know."
A Cai also knelt down and kowtowed:
"Empress, we are just girls. We will do whatever the master says..."
"Shut up."
Ah Hong shouted at Ah Cai, glared at her vigorously, and then said to Concubine Chang:
"Empress, A Cai is talking nonsense. I just hit her. She was unwilling to accept that, so she said this on purpose. Empress must not trust her."
"I didn't say nonsense. I just saw the princess blinking at you, just asking you to hit me on purpose. Don't lie to me."
A Cai looked at Ah Hong with a righteous and angry look.
Ah Hong's face turned blue and white, and when she looked at Ah Cai, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Concubine Chang's eyes suddenly tightened. She looked at Ah Hong and said word by word:
"Your name is Ahong? I know that Princess Yu trusts you more. You are also a person who speaks little by little, but Princess Yu is not familiar with this palace. If you don't tell me where Princess Yu is going, she will cause trouble in this harem, and I'm afraid she will be unable to take care of her."
Listening to Concubine Chang's words, Ah Hong's hands were clenched together, looking at a loss.
Seeing that she was moved, Concubine Chang continued:
"Although Princess Yu is more sane, the Emperor will personally examine her fake identity tomorrow. This is not a trivial matter, but a major matter related to life and death. So tonight, it is hard to guarantee that she will be unable to think about it and do things that ordinary people cannot understand. So I think that if you really think about her, you might as well tell me where she is going. Maybe I can help her."
Hearing her say this, Ah Hong suddenly looked up at Concubine Chang and asked with inquiring eyes:
"Is the Empress really willing to help the princess?"
"Of course." Seeing Ah Hong's tone relaxed, Concubine Chang nodded and replied:
"Of course I will help her. No matter what, she is also Yu'er's princess. How could I watch her die?"
Ah Hong bit her lips tightly, looking like she was reluctant to speak.
Concubine Chang looked at her half-squinted. Seeing that she was still hesitating, she comforted her again:
"Princess Yu treats you well normally, you can't let her do something stupid. If you don't believe me, it's too late to regret it if you wait for her to cause any trouble."
Concubine Chang's voice was harsh and threatening. Ah Hong's body shook, lowered her head, and did not dare to look at Concubine Chang.
At this time, A Cai beside her pouted and muttered to her:
"You said, just say, don't be clever. If you don't report it, the princess will be punished by the emperor because you know it and you will be punished by the emperor if you do something wrong, you will have no master to serve. Maybe you will be implicated."
Ah Hong glanced at A Cai, then whispered to Concubine Chang with her lips:
"Empress, this is how it is. Before leaving Dening Palace, the princess told me to find a way to get her out. Then I made this bad decision. I deliberately bumped into A Cai and quarreled with her, and then attracted the sight of the two young sisters behind, so that the princess could take the opportunity to leave at this time."
Hearing this, Concubine Chang's brows tightly and asked coldly.
"Where has she been?"
"she……"
Ah Hong tightened her lips and suddenly kowtowed to Concubine Chang and said:
"I beg the Empress to save the princess, she... she really wants to do something wrong."
Seeing Ah Hong's expression was so nervous, Concubine Chang was as excited as if she was about to pick up a treasure, and asked with a raised voice:
