Everyone stayed in the imperial dining room in the evening, so Xia Yi couldn't be absent.

She was staring at by Liu Yuchu, and she would not add this one to Liu Yuchu.

The whole imperial dining room was full of lanterns, which made it as bright as day.

And the imperial chefs all make themselves look very busy.

The imperial dining room, which contained more than 100 people, was also strangely silent. Without the sound of chatting in the past, there was only the sound of cutting and cooking.

When master Tang went to take vegetables next to Xia Yi, he couldn't help asking Xia Yi in a low voice: "Miss Xia Yi, I heard that this mu king has a bad temper. Is it true?"

"Well?"

Xia Yi was originally cutting vegetables. When she heard that master Tang suddenly asked her about Xiao Linmu, she almost cut her own hand with a shake.

Master Tang said, "you've cooked in the palace, and you've been hunting with the princess of the southern region. Have you met King Mu?"

"Yes, I have." Xia Yi nodded.

"As it is said?"

Xia Yi thought about it and replied, "I'm a little bit cold."

Master Tang sighed and whispered: "we should be more careful in a moment. If we offend King Mu, it may be fatal."

"..." Xia Yi takes a serious look at master Tang and reminds him of his seriousness. It's funny that master Tang treats Xiao Linmu as a murderer.

Xia Yi can't help refuting for Xiao Linmu, "it's not that serious, is it?"

"Alas, they are royal families. It's as simple as crushing an ant to death if you want a human life. It's a short time for you to come to the capital, and you don't know..." master Tang said a few more words when he saw that Xia Yi didn't like it, and he didn't feel anxious for Xia Yi.

Just then, I heard a cough nearby.

Master Tang was surprised and immediately closed his mouth.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw that Xiao Linmu was not far away from them.

Xiao Linmu's temperament is cold. When he doesn't smile, it really gives people a feeling that strangers are not near.

In addition, what master Tang said just now is not a good thing. I'm afraid that Xiao Linmu will hear it. At this moment, my heart will jump out.

Xiao Linmu didn't speak, turned around and left.

Wei Chu, who was standing behind Xiao Linmu, said, "what are you two talking about?"

Master Tang's legs and stomach began to tremble, and he said with a white face, "if you come back to me, I didn't say anything."

"Is it?" Wei Chu continues to press to ask a way.

"Yes... Yes..." master Tang's words are not sharp.

Wei Chu is noncommittal, but turns his eyes to Xia Yi.

"You said

Xia Yi droops a way: "return adult's words, really didn't say what?"

Wei Chu picked an eyebrow to express his disbelief and pointed to Xia Yi: "you, come here..."

Then he turned and went out to the imperial dining room.

Xia Yi turns her head and whispers to master Tang: "don't worry, I won't say it."

Finish saying just follow Wei Chu to go out.

After people go out, there is a very low voice.

"People from outside the palace just don't understand the rules. Now, I've offended the king of hell..."

"Who said no, it's going to be bad luck!"

Master Tang over there sat on the ground as soon as his legs and stomach softened.

After Xia Yi follows Wei Chu to the imperial dining room to prepare for Xiao Linmu's rest, Xiao Linmu has finished a cup of tea.

Xia Yi picked up the teapot on the table and said to Xiao Linmu, "you are so scared by master Tang."

Xiao Linmu said, "I heard it."

His tone is somewhat aggrieved, as if he was accusing Xia Yi.

Xia Yi hands a meal, the water in the cup spills out some.

Xiao Linmu explained with no expression: "since I was young, my ear and eyesight are better than ordinary people."

Xia Yi grinned and said, "master Tang has no malice. He just wants to remind me..."

Xiao Linmu drooped his eyes and said, "well, I'm just looking for an excuse to call you out."

"I see." Xia Yi nodded and handed the cup to Xiao Linmu. "Why did you come to inspect the imperial dining room all of a sudden? What's the matter?"

Xiao Linmu took the cup with one hand and put it on the table. With the other hand, he pulled Xia Yi a little closer. Then he said, "let's talk about the rules of tomorrow's competition. By the way... Look at you. Are you still used to living in the palace?"

"Habits." Xia Yi nodded, arranged her in Tangyuan alone, and specially assigned a little eunuch to take care of her daily life.

Listen to, Xiao Linmu light comment way: "Kou Gonggong is a can handle affairs."

"It's you?" Xia Yi suddenly understood why he would have this special treatment.

"Well." Xiao Linmu said, "it's just that you can't arouse other people's suspicion, you can only do it to this extent."

Xia Yi said: "it's just good. It's clean enough. Xiao Anzi is smart."

Speaking of residence, Xia Yi really has something to ask Xiao Linmu.

"Whose residence was this Tangyuan before? How could it be so long? "

Xiao Linmu pondered for a moment, then said: "I remember things, Tang Yuan is empty, only heard that there is an old friend of my father."

"Old friend?" Xia Yi asked.

"Well, I haven't seen it. I've also heard that it has something to do with the Chu government."

After getting this answer, Xia Yi just managed to connect up. Since it has something to do with the Chu house, the bracelet in the box of the dowry and the bracelet given to her by the old lady of Chu are actually a pair.

Where is the owner of the bracelet?

From the old lady of Chu, Xia Yi roughly knows that the owner of the bracelet has been missing for nearly 20 years. She doesn't know whether she is alive or dead.

The backyard of Tangyuan is still clean and original. Are you waiting for the owner of the bracelet to come back?

I don't know the meaning of the summer.

In addition to these, Xia Yi and Xiao Linmu also scattered some other things.

For example, nanqianyue didn't even come to Tangyuan to eat all kinds of silk dishes for two days.

Another example is that Xia Yi picked up a little cat from tangyuan. It's clever and humane, and she especially likes to eat steamed bread, so Xia Yi named it steamed bread

But Xia Yi also did not stay in the room more then went back.

Before going back, Xia Yi did not forget to settle the steamed bread.

Taking steamed bread out of the imperial city is difficult for Xia Yi, but it is a small matter for Xiao Linmu.

Just before leaving the palace, Xiao Anzi gives the steamed bread to Xiao Linmu.

"I'll go first." Xia Yi wants to take her hand out of Xiao Linmu's, but she finds that Xiao Linmu's grip is tighter.

I'm confused. Suddenly I feel soft on my lips.

Xia Yi breathes. When she reacts, her hand has been sent away, and Xiao Linmu's smiling face is still close at hand.

When consciousness comes back, Xia Yi remembers that Wei Chu is also in the room.

She looked back at Wei Chu, but saw that he had turned his back.
