Wei Liao caught a glimpse of a man standing beside a pillar not far away.
That person looked like he was watching the performance on the stage, but his eyes kept sneaking in the direction of Wei Liao and Yu Niaoniao. Coincidentally, Wei Liao had seen him in the Justice Department.
He was an Eagle Guard.
When the Eagle Guard realized that Wei Liao seemed to have noticed him, he immediately retracted his gaze and walked in another direction.
The distance between the two widened.
In the blink of an eye, the Eagle Guard was gone.
Wei Liao had already guessed most of it.
Duke Lang must have been worried about Yu Niaoniao going out alone and specially sent an Eagle Guard to protect her in secret.
Although the Eagle Guards were gone, they must not have gone far. They must have hidden nearby.
He had to keep Yu Niaoniao safe. He could not be too far away from her.
With a thought, Wei Liao suddenly knew how to teach Yu Niaoniao a lesson.
He quickly put on a warm smile as he let go of her lapels and quickly hooked her shoulder with his other hand, deliberately looking intimate.
“Brother Yu, you had a good time in Sky Oriole Garden today, right? Ye Yin served you well, right?”
Yu Niaoniao had yet to recover from his sudden change in expression. When she heard what he said, she was even more confused.
“You’re talking nonsense…”
Wei Liao interrupted her in an extremely ambiguous tone.
“Alright, I know. You like Ye Yin very much. I can’t even say. I’ll just stop.”
“But don’t forget your promise to Ye Yin. You promised to give him something.
You must be more careful when you get back.”
“Come over early tomorrow. Don’t let him wait too long.”
Before Yu Niaoniao could speak, Wei Liao pushed her out the door.
She staggered and almost fell.
Yu Niaoniao turned around angrily, but she realized that Wei Liao had already walked away.
She could only curse angrily.
“You’re crazy!”
As soon as the clerk at the door saw her, he immediately smiled ingratiatingly.
“Don’t worry, I didn’t hear anything just now.” was speechless. “What did you hear?”
The clerk looked around to make sure that no one was paying attention to him before flattering him softly.
“Ye Yin is the new star here. Although he’s a little young, he’s definitely the number one in our Heavenly Oriole Garden in terms of looks and figure! You have good taste taking a fancy to him!”
He had been standing at the door just now, and Wei Liao had spoken loudly. He had no choice but to hear him.
Yu Niaoniao was so angry that her face turned red. “What nonsense are you talking about? I have nothing to do with Ye Yin. If you spread rumors, I’ll get someone to cut off your tongue!”
The clerk was frightened to death and hurriedly apologized.
“I was wrong. I shouldn’t have spoken nonsense. I’ll slap myself now!”
With that, he really slapped himself twice.
He hit himself very hard. Two crisp sounds immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Seeing that everyone was looking over, Yu Niaoniao was afraid that she would make things worse, so she could only run away in a hurry. She rode the donkey back to the Langjun Imperial Palace.
Granny Xiu Yan asked with concern.
“Did it go well outside today? Were you bullied?” waved her hand and said no.
Although she had met that annoying Wei Liao today, she had not been able to gain an advantage over him. The two of them were even.
Granny Xiu Yan said, “Then are you hungry? Are you thirsty? I’ll get someone to prepare some refreshments for you.”
Yu Niaoniao did not answer the question.
“Is the embroiderer in the residence free today? I have something to ask her for help.”
Granny Xiu Yan immediately replied, “Of course she’s free! The residence has spent money to raise several embroiderers. I’ll get someone to call them over.”
Soon, the four embroiderers were brought to Yu Niaoniao.
They knelt down and bowed to Yu Niaoniao in fear.
“Greetings, Princess Consort.”
Yu Niaoniao asked them to get up and casually took out a draft.
“Can you embroider the pattern on this?”
One of the embroiderers took the draft and looked at it. She saw that there were two people drawn on it. Although the proportion of the characters and their facial features were a little strange, it should not be difficult to embroider.
Therefore, the four of them nodded in agreement.
immediately smiled.
“Very good. Get to work now. Embroider the contents of this painting into pillowcase. The pillowcase is about this wide and long. Make it almost as t a real person…”
She gestured above her head as she spoke.
The embroiderers pricked up their ears and listened carefully, memorizin: everything the County Princess said.
After saying all the requests, Yu Niaoniao took out four silver ingots and p them on the table.
“As long as the pillowcases you make satisfy me, these four silver ingots a yours.”
The four embroiderers were naturally overjoyed and hurriedly agreed.
Yu Niaoniao instructed, “Remember, you only have one day. After you fini making the pillowcase tomorrow, put in the pillow core and hand it to Gr? Xiu Yan. She’ll send someone to give me a pillow.”
The four of them replied in unison, “Yes.”
They immediately got to work after returning to the embroidery room.
Whether it was to get on the Princess Consort’s good side or for the four ingots, they had to do their best this time!
At the same time, the Eagle Guards in charge of secretly protecting Yu
Niaoniao had returned to the Justice Department.
He went to report to Lo Pingsha. Unexpectedly, he bumped into Lo Pingsh talking to Duke Lang.
Xiao Juan had already learned from Lo Pingsha that Yu Niaoniao had gone out today. He also knew that Lo Pingsha had ordered one of the Eagle Guards to protect Yu Niaoniao.
He caught a glimpse of someone coming and asked calmly.
“What is it?”
The Eagle Guard glanced at Lo Pingsha before speaking.
“Your Highness, the Princess Consort has returned to the Regional King’s Mansion safely.”
Xiao Juan continued to ask, “Did she encounter any trouble today?”
After asking, he saw the Eagle Guard hesitate and immediately understood that Yu Niaoniao must have encountered an unusual situation outside today. So his face darkened and his voice was cold. “Tell me, what happened?” The Eagle Guard was afraid and did not dare to hide it, so he told the truth. “Today, the County Princess went to the Heavenly Oriole Garden.”
“However, because I did not have a ticket, I could not follow her in and could only look for an opportunity nearby.”
“When I finally found an opportunity to sneak into the Heavenly Oriole Garden, I saw that the Princess Consort had already walked down the stairs. There was a man behind her.”
Xiao Juan frowned. “What man?”
“It was the Vice General of the Sky Wolf Guards, Wei Liao. He seems to be very familiar with the Princess Consort. He even told her… said..
Xiao Juan reprimanded, “If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t hem and haw!”
“Wei Liao mentioned a young man called Ye Yin. He said that he served the
Princess Consort very well and asked her not to forget to prepare gifts for hi He also promised to see her tomorrow.”
Xiao Juan’s expression gradually turned ugly. “Who is Ye Yin?”
“I’ve asked around. Ye Yin is a small actor in the Heavenly Oriole Garden. I heard that he’s very handsome. Many rich daughters spend money to suppo him.”
Xiao Juan was speechless.
Lo Pingsha said nothing.
Heavens! Was the Princess Consort actually raising an actor behind Duke Lang’s back?!
