The cannon fodder fake prince at the beginning, I won by hugging thighs

Yan Yuanhao's last words made Kuilang give up the idea of quibbling.

I had to confess honestly: "I just don't like him."

“Just because you don’t like her, you erase everything she did?

Just to say that she defended the entire Guiyan Pavilion and didn't give the chief steward a chance to make trouble, that's something you can't do."

Kuilang didn't know why, but he was still stubborn as if possessed: "Maybe he's just lucky."

Yan Yuanhao was somewhat disappointed with Kuilang.

“I didn’t expect your likes and dislikes could affect your judgment.

Forget it, you don't have to go to the northwest, go back to Huainan and exchange Cang Jiao for you!"

Kuilang suddenly panicked. Going back to Huainan to keep an eye on the Prince and his wife was not as challenging as following the Crown Prince in the capital.

He softened instantly: "Prince, please don't! Can't I just be wrong?"

"Where did you go wrong?"

Kuilang hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.

After a long pause, he finally managed to utter: "I've already apologized, what else do you want from me?"

"Do you really realize your mistake? Have you apologized to Lu Jiao?"

Kuilang wanted to argue a little more, but Yan Yuanhao chased him out: "Go back and reflect on it. If you don't understand what went wrong, go ask Xingxuan and Liuhuo."

Yan Yuanhao felt a sharp pain in his head and didn't want to continue talking to this stubborn donkey.

As soon as Kuilang walked out, Liuhuo came in with a plate of cakes.

He placed the plate within Yan Yuanhao's reach and stepped aside to serve as a background.

Yan Yuanhao was originally rubbing his temple, but when he smelled the sweet scent, he couldn't help but touch it.

When I came to my senses, a piece of milk roll had already been swallowed.

"Is anyone going to Zhiweizhai to buy anything today?"

"Lu Jiao brought it back."

Yan Yuanhao nodded. She was the only one who had the spare money to buy pastries.

"Have the former shopkeeper and his staff been found?"

“The old shopkeeper said that he was too old and mentally weak to take care of things, so he recommended his son.

Their family is probably on their way to the capital now.

Because the guys are quite common, and the people in the dental industry change hands, there are no special records, so it is difficult to find them. "

Yan Yuanhao sighed. It was because he was young that his mother's dowry could only be controlled by his stepmother.

If I had not been reborn before going to Beijing, I would not have been able to get back all these dowry shops of my mother.

"We'll try our best to find them even if it's difficult. It's because I'm young and can't protect them."

"Sir, you don't have to be too hard on yourself."

"By the way, ask Xing Xuan to come over."

In the next few days, Lu Jiao taught Yan Yuanhao's guards everything he could.

If she still can’t learn it, then it’s a problem of IQ, it’s not her fault.

As soon as Yan Yuanhao returned home that day, he sent someone to look for Lu Jiao.

"What's the matter? Why are you calling me here in such a hurry?"

As far as Lu Jiao knew, Urgutu had his men sift out the sand and gravel from the grain and piled it in front of the Guo family's doorstep overnight.

On the first day of the new year, Guo Xi almost missed the time to attend the grand court meeting.

This incident made him a huge laughing stock in Beijing.

If you don’t know, you might think that it was some political enemy of the Guo family who was playing a prank on them.

Those who know, such as the Guo family, understand that what is supposed to come will eventually come.

When Lu Jiao went to Guo's house to secretly inquire about Lu Shan's news, he happened to run into him and eavesdropped on what was going on.

It seemed as if nothing else happened to me.

Yan Yuanhao came back today and he looked obviously a little uneasy.

"In a few days it will be the fifth day of the lunar new year, the Dragon Boat Festival again.

This year, the emperor ordered that everything be kept simple, so the trip to watch the dragon boat race outside the palace was cancelled and replaced with a palace banquet. "

At this point, he hesitated a little.

"You want to enter the palace?"

"I must go to the palace. I wonder...if you can...change into women's clothes and accompany me to the palace with Xingxuan."

Ga?

Lu Jiao was so surprised that she quacked like a duck: "Why me?"

“In the palace, except for officials and female relatives, the guards cannot follow me into the palace, so they can only wait in the side hall near Donghua Gate.

Maids are different.

Besides Xing Xuan, there was only Nanny Tong in Guiyan Pavilion. She definitely couldn't accompany me into the palace, and no one would believe Kaiyang and the others even if they changed into women's clothes.

It’s just you.”

Lu Jiao had a feeling that he hadn't told the whole truth: "Xing Xuan alone is enough, why do we need two?"

"Because... Miss Gu of Zhennan Palace will also be there. I plan to ask you to pass on the message for me then."

Lu Jiao thought carefully about Yan Yuanhao's situation.

If I were to find a maid in the mansion, not to mention the palace etiquette, just from the perspective of the chief steward, there was no way he would miss such a good opportunity.

If anything out of line happened at the palace banquet, it would definitely be very disadvantageous to Yan Yuanhao.

It seems I have to do it myself.

"But...I've never worn women's clothes!"

This means agreed.

Yan Yuanhao was nervous for a long time on the way back home before he decided to speak to Lu Jiao.

Now she agreed, and her previous nervousness turned into a smile: "I owe you a big favor this time!

Xing Xuan often appears beside me, which makes it quite inconvenient for me to move around. You are a stranger, so when you go to the women's side, you won't attract other people's attention."

Lu Jiao teased, “It’s very valuable to be able to make you owe me a favor.

I will not use this favor lightly."

The two of them practiced Tai Chi for several rounds and finally finalized Lu Jiao's task of entering the palace that day.

"Oh, by the way, I have one more thing to ask of you."

"besides?"

Lu Jiao was puzzled. Apart from the matter of Roudun and the things that needed to be delivered to Miss Gu, what else could be bothering her?

"I'd like to trouble you to go to the Zhennan Palace and draw a defense map of the entire palace.

This way, when I send someone to deliver the letter in the future, I can avoid those secret guards."

"Okay, then I'll keep an eye on it for a night and figure out the guards' deployment and shift changes."

"Thanks a lot!"

Lu Jiao did not take this little matter seriously and went to the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion that night.

The Prince of Zhennan's Palace is located in Chongmingfang, which is right next to the imperial city. It is adjacent to Mingzhaofang where the Prince of Huainan's Palace is located, but it is closer to the imperial city, which shows its favor.

Because the Prince of Huainan was not favored by the emperor, his title was demoted to a lower rank, and even the regulations of his house were lowered accordingly.

Compared with the Zhennan Palace, it is smaller in area.

However, being close to the imperial city naturally has its advantages.

At this moment, Lu Jiao stood on the towering city wall of the imperial city, looking down and taking in the general terrain of the Prince of Zhennan's Palace.

Lanterns were hung in the corridors that connected all parts of the mansion, making it much more convenient for the guards to patrol.

But at the same time it also made things convenient for Lu Jiao.

In addition, Lu Jiao’s mental power was not idle, and he explored several places with large heat sources.

But the strange thing was that Lu Jiao did not find any trace of the secret guards in the mansion.

Could it be that Prince Zhennan is so confident that his successor princess will guard the entire palace alone?

Lu Jiao's question was soon answered.
