Chapter 102: Falsifying the Imperial Edict
"You're here, of course you have to go there." Chu Liuzheng kept peeking, looking for the target according to the system's text description, and said, "But not now, we will go there after the nobles have left."
Maybe there is hope, and the jade pendant has regained some energy. Seeing that Chu Liuzheng kept looking towards Jinxiu Pavilion, he couldn't help but asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"
Chu Liuzheng retracted his head and stared at Yuzhui's face, "I saw a maid, whose profile looked like yours. If you weren't with me, I would have thought that the maid was you."
"Seriously?"
Chu Liuzheng nodded, took a step back and gave up his position, "If you don't believe it, see for yourself, it's the maid in a emerald blue coat and skirt leaning against the railing on the second floor."
Yuzhui stepped forward dubiously and stuck his head out to take a look.
My eyes wandered back and forth on the second floor of Jinxiu Pavilion, and I did see a maid wearing a emerald blue jacket and skirt, but her back was turned to her at the moment, and her face could not be seen.
Chu Liuzheng asked in a low voice: "Did you see it? She is the only one wearing blue."
"You can't see the face." As soon as Yuzhui finished speaking, she saw the maid turning around to take something, which happened to allow her to see her face.
She was stunned.
This face is like the memory of my mother-in-law when she was young.
When she entered the palace, her sister was only seven years old and had not yet grown up. She did not know what her fifteen-year-old sister looked like now.
But seeing the maid's face, she suddenly felt that her sister should look like this.
She said in a daze: "I seem to see my sister."
Chu Liuzheng pretended to be surprised: "Why is your sister in the palace? You may have seen it wrong."
Yuzhui also felt that he had seen it wrong, but he couldn't help but poke his head out to take a look again.
What I saw this time was the side face of the maid.
The front face looks like it, but the side face looks more like it.
With his heart beating loudly, Yuzhui tried his best to open his dry eyes, trying to see more clearly and then more clearly.
【Oops! Discovered by the eldest princess’s nanny! 】
Chu Liuzheng hurriedly touched the jade pendant with his elbow and wanted to take her away.
[I’ve already seen the werewolf sister on the left and right, so don’t be too hasty to recognize her. 】
It's a pity that it didn't work out.
Aunt Liu had a gloomy face and stared at the two of them with a pair of old eyes.
Chu Liuzheng: "..."
No, it’s coming so quickly, will you show up?
"What are you two doing sneakily here?"
"Mommy, you are kind." Jade pendant stepped forward to block Chu Liuzheng behind him, blessing his body. "We are the maids serving tea in front of the emperor. We were ordered to come to the imperial garden to pick some red plum branches and put them in bottles."
< br>
Although her words were calm, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her palms because of the lie.
"Since you came here under orders, why don't you go over and peek here?" Aunt Liu didn't believe this argument at all and looked at the two of them suspiciously.
Yuzhui shook her hand nervously, her eyes wandering, "We..."
"We didn't know that Her Royal Highness the Princess was holding a banquet in Jinxiu Pavilion. We were worried that her rash appearance would disturb the elegance of the nobles, so we waited here." Chu Liuzheng took over the conversation and looked at Nanny Liu with a smile on his face. There was no trace of panic at all.
[For a trivial matter such as picking plum blossoms, there is a high probability that Grandma Liu will not go to the tyrant for verification, and she should be able to get away with it. 】
When she smiled like this, Nanny Liu suddenly remembered, "Are you the maid who accompanied His Majesty to the Princess's mansion that day?"
Unexpectedly, Grandma Liu still remembered him. Chu Liuzheng nodded, "It's me. Grandma has a good memory."
Recalling that Chu Liuzheng helped the former prince-in-law with a lot of curses, and also supported his princess in time and expressed comfort, the corners of Liu's pursed lips slowly loosened, and her face was no longer as stern as before. "I never asked the girl her name that day. Her Royal Highness the Princess always wanted to thank her."
"I don't deserve a thank you from Your Highness, the eldest princess, but don't try to hurt me." Chu Liuzheng waved his hand, "My surname is Chu, and my name is Zheng. The flowing water flows, the palace merchant Jiao Zhengyu's Zheng, and the nanny calls me Liuzheng. Just fine.”
Aunt Liu was slightly stunned. Didn't she change her name when serving in front of the emperor?
Seeing that Chu Liuzheng's hands were wrapped in gauze, she asked with concern: "What's wrong with the girl's hands?"
"I accidentally got burned." Chu Liuzheng hid his hand back in his cloak.
[It seems that the rumor about me causing trouble in the Huaqing Palace has not spread very widely. Even Grandma Liu doesn’t know about it. 】
Chu Liuzheng had just finished thinking this, and the next moment he heard Nanny Liu sigh: "It turns out that the girl is the brave man who caused trouble in Huaqing Palace."
【Oh haha! It's too early to be happy. Will everyone who sees me in the future sigh like this first? 】
Thinking of that scene, Chu Liuzheng's scalp went numb with embarrassment, and he could have built a palace on the spot.
However, Nanny Liu looked her up and down with great interest, as if she wanted to find something "brave" about her.

Chu Liuzheng: "..."
[How about you wait until I develop my eight-pack abs before you watch? 】
"Since the girl injured her hand, how could your majesty send the girl to do plum-breaking work?" Aunt Liu is not that easy to fool. Even if she has a good impression of Chu Liuzheng, she will not let Chu Liuzheng go. Flaws in words.
Chu Liuzheng: "..."
That's a good question.
"Because..." Chu Liuzheng tried to blame Mr. Zhou, but as soon as he started speaking, he heard a cold jade-like voice, "What are you doing standing here?"
When everyone heard the sound and looked around, they saw a group of people walking slowly on the path paved with bluestones. The leader was Xiao Jingfan, who had just left the court and changed into black regular clothes.
Behind him were the second prince of Xixia and the third prince of Goryeo.
"Your Majesty, stay safe." Everyone knelt down in unison.
Yuzhui was worried that Chu Liuzheng would fall, so he reached out to help her.
"Everyone, get up." Xiao Jingfan waved his hand and looked sideways at Grandma Liu.
Mammy Liu lowered her head and reported: "In reply to Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess held a banquet in Jinxiu Pavilion. The servants found these two people peeking here, so they came over to inquire."
Hearing this, Zhou Yuande glanced at Chu Liuzheng in surprise.
Why is this man, who is not resting well in Nongyun Garden, going to the Imperial Garden to peek at the eldest princess in the cold weather? It’s not like I’ve never seen it before.
[Damn it, how did the tyrant come by such a coincidence? If we continue to ask this question, Yuzhui and I will fall into the grave sin of 'falsely conveying imperial edicts'. 】
Chu Liuzheng secretly thought that he was unlucky, and while thinking of ideas, he secretly winked at Yuzhui, so be careful.
Yuzhui bit the inside of her lower lip, suppressing her panic, lowered her head and looked at the ground, silently praying for good luck.
But today's good luck was obviously not on their side. Xiao Jingfan did not ask further questions, but Aunt Liu continued: "I never thought it was a misunderstanding. The two girls were ordered by His Majesty to break red plum branches. They were worried about disturbing the princesses. Just waiting here.”
Zhou Yuande was shocked when he heard this and looked at Chu Liuzheng and Jade Pendant.
Your Majesty has never issued such an order. These two are so brave that they dare to falsely pass on the imperial edict. Do you think it is too comfortable to live?
【Finish the ball! 】
Chu Liuzheng wailed in his heart and did not dare to raise his eyes to look at Xiao Jingfan's expression.
Yuzhui turned pale with fright, and her legs were trembling under her skirt. She secretly regretted the excuse of being ordered to break plum blossoms, as she was afraid that Liu Zheng would be implicated and die together with her today.
