Chapter 352: Guard against the slightest possibility

Although the intention of expelling people was very obvious, Lin Yi did not show any dissatisfaction and did not go far. He just retreated to the pavilion and stood with his hands down.

He picked up the bait and re-hooked it. The reason why he had been holding the bait in his hand before was because if it was left casually, the bait would dry out and become hard when exposed to the wind. The reason why the bait was still soft at this time was undoubtedly because when he left

During this period, Lin Yi had been holding the bait in his palm.

Just by doing this, you can see that Lin Yi is a careful person. He hung up the bait and threw it into the water. He brought the remaining bait to his nose and smelled it. He found that there was no smell of powder on it, so he was relieved.

Come on, because if the bait smells like powder, the fish will not bite the hook.

After smelling the bait, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and waved to the three maids standing outside the pavilion, "Come here."

Hearing the call, Lin Yi and the other two people came quickly, grabbed their hands and smelled them one by one. They found that the hands of the other two maids had the smell of powder, and only Lin Yi's hand had the smell of fish bait.

Then he smelled Lin Yi's arm and found that there was also the scent of powder. This meant that Lin Yi did not apply makeup, but that he had washed his hands before grabbing the bait.

The other two maids didn't know why they acted like this, but Lin Yi must have known it, and his expression was a little more calm than the other two. .??.

He waved his hands to the other two maids, then pointed to the corridor chair where he was sitting, "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lin Yi thanked him and sat down. The chair was very long, so she did not sit next to him, but sat at the end of the chair.

"You are very attentive." He said casually.

"This slave is scared." Lin Yi was a little nervous.

"Did you enter the palace voluntarily or were you forced to enter the palace?" asked.

"Returning to your Majesty's question, the slaves and others are ordered to enter the palace," Lin Yi said. "The imperial court has an order that all the daughters of officials of the seventh rank and above, who are waiting for the title of maid, must enter the palace and wait for selection."

Said, "Do you want to go home?"

Lin Yi didn't know why he asked this question and tilted his head in confusion.

Said, "If you want to go home, I will let you go."

Lin Yi didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't dare to answer the question casually.

Seeing how nervous she was, he said, "Don't be nervous, I'm telling the truth. I'm not used to being served by others. I'm not used to having so many maids and maids in the palace. If you want to go home, I'll

Let you go back, not only you, but also those maids will be let go."

"If the prince is willing, I would like to stay." Lin Yi replied.

"Why do you want to stay?" Xiao asked.

Lin Yi bowed his head shyly.

once again

He smiled and said, "Listening to your previous words, you seem to know something about me. You should know that I have someone in mind."

Hearing the words, Lin Yi stood up in fear, knelt down and said, "I dare not overstep my bounds."

"Haha, get up," he said with a smile, "you three go and gather all the maids in the house to the front yard. I will go over and talk to you in a moment."

"Your Majesty wants us to leave?" Lin Yi was shocked.

"Go." He waved his hand to Lin Yi and turned his attention to the float in the water.

Lin Yi knelt down for a moment, said nothing, then stood up and left sadly.

I really want to get rid of these young maids. There are many reasons for this idea. First, I don’t like being surrounded by too many young women, especially young ladies like Lin Yi, who all come from official families.

Advance and retreat in a measured manner, and be knowledgeable and reasonable. If you get along day and night, there will be no guarantee that something will not change.

The second is that he doesn’t want to be popular. Just one woman he likes is enough. Having a group of wives and concubines seems to be a blessing to everyone, but in fact it will distract the mind and increase the burden. As the saying goes, children love each other but heroes are short-tempered.

If you are immersed in the land of gentleness, your blood will definitely diminish, your fighting spirit will inevitably wane, and you will have no time to think about anything else.

Third, everything has two sides, yin and yang, and the same is true for men and women. Young, beautiful, graceful, sweet-sounding, and infinitely tender. This is just a beautiful side, but there is another side. The first is distraction. Not only does it require

If you are distracted from caring for and protecting them and their families, you also have to deal with the various changes and emotional fluctuations that may occur to them. Human energy is limited. Too much energy is spent on the personal affairs of children and should be used on business matters.

Your energy is bound to decrease. Beauty is good, but behind all beauties there is a lot of trouble.

The fourth is fear. The tragedies of Chen Liqiu and Miss Zhao are still vivid in my mind. I have made enemies everywhere, and my enemies, whether overt or covert, cannot do anything to me. They will probably attack my woman. If someone like Miss Zhao appears,

Under such circumstances, he will definitely follow in Chen Liqiu's footsteps.

The fifth is to avoid suspicion. I have no intention of stealing melons and picking jujubes, so I will definitely not do anything in the melon fields. If Zhang Mo comes one day and sees a group of beauties around him, even if he doesn't feel grudge, he will definitely not be as good as him.

It's good to be surrounded by ladies and aunties.

Regardless of whether a man or a woman, the greatest respect for the other person is not to do anything that may cause the other person to misunderstand, rather than just wandering around under the melons and plums, and then hope that the other person will believe that they did not steal melons and pick jujubes. If the other person does not

I believe that I am still full of grievances. I don't know how to avoid suspicion like this, and I always do what I want to do.

You must not want the person who did the thing, because most of them really stole the melon, but they were not caught. To say the least, even if they did not steal the melon, they did not consider the feelings of the other party at all. In fact,

It's selfish.

After half a stick of incense, he estimated that the maids and maids had gathered together, so he put away his fishing rod and carried a fish to the front yard. This fish was not caught by him, but killed with the bait in his hand.

, it doesn’t look good to go back empty-handed after fishing for a long time.

Back in the front yard, the maids had been waiting for a long time, and without saying any nonsense, each of them received two hundred taels of silver, which was both travel expenses and dowry. They all left immediately, leaving no one behind.

The maids went back to the house to pack their things, and they called for the servants, each with one hundred taels each, and they all left without leaving any one behind.

At this time, Datou had finished feeding the eaglets and came to the front yard. He was surprised to see that all the maids and servants in the palace had been dismissed, "Sir, the palace is so big, there must be a few cooks and sweepers left."

"No, we have our own people," he said, "I'll write a letter and give it to Song Cai. The Ni family has a big business, and suddenly all the shops in Chang'an have been closed. There are always some older men and women who are not available."

Let them come to the palace to settle down and cook and work."

"Yes, this is a good idea. It kills two birds with one stone," Datou nodded in agreement, "Don't write a letter, I'll go ahead and tell you."

"Okay, go ahead," nodded, "It doesn't matter if you're a man, but if you're a woman under thirty, I don't want it."

"Oh." Big Head turned around and stepped forward.

"Wait, let's be forty years old, not those under forty years old." He added.

Hearing the words, Datou grinned and frowned, "This is your palace, it's not good if it's full of old men and old ladies."

"Okay, you can figure it out." He said casually.

When he was about to leave, he remembered that he was carrying a fish in his hand. He wanted to find someone to take it to the kitchen, but the servants and maids in the mansion were busy packing their things, collecting money and leaving, and no one could give them instructions.

.

Just as he turned around to look around, a young maid walked straight towards him.

This maid came here empty-handed. She didn't know what the man wanted to do, so she looked directly at the man and waited for him to approach.

The maid came closer and said in a cold voice, "How did you know I was among them?"

He did not know this person, but the moment this person spoke, he immediately knew that this person was Hattori Kana, because the other person only changed his appearance and did not deliberately hide his voice. The most important thing is that this person spoke Japanese.

Dismissing the maids and servants was purely a temporary decision, and Hattori Kana was not thought of at all.

Hidden in his palace, he was surprised when she suddenly revealed her identity, but he didn't want Hattori Kana to see that he was doing it unintentionally, so he said casually, "I'm just suspicious, not sure."

"You really know Japanese." Hattori Kana curled her lips and sneered.

What he spoke before was in Chinese, not Japanese, but he answered Hattori Kana's question, which shows that he can understand Japanese.

"So what if I know Japanese?" he asked casually. During the surprise attack on Qilin Town, he had used Japanese to confuse the Japanese pirates there, so he knew very well that his knowledge of Japanese had been exposed.

"The fact that you can speak Japanese means you can understand what Princess Sachiko said." Hattori Kana said.

"Who is Princess Sachiko?" Asking questions knowingly, people who lie have a common characteristic, that is, they will repeat the other person's words to buy time to think. The sudden incident was no exception, because he had already guessed the Princess Sachiko in the other person's mouth.

It was the young woman who tried to take away the holy bones that day.

"That's the woman you kicked down and took away the things in her arms." Hattori Kana said.

"Oh? What did she say?" I asked again knowingly.

"When you were leaving, Princess Sachiko shouted, 'They stole the holy bones,'" Hattori Kana said. "You may not have known what you had taken away, just because Princess Sachiko held it in her arms.

You thought this object was very important, so you turned around and snatched it away. Later, Princess Sachiko shouted in panic, and you realized that what you had snatched was a sacred bone."

Hattori Kana's reasoning was well-founded, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment, so she casually asked, "What are the sacred bones?"

"Stop pretending," Hattori Kana pulled out a few silver needles from behind her ears and restored her appearance, "You have done us terrible harm. In the past few days, we have dispatched civilians to cut off the water and cut off the water, turning the Suihe River upside down.

The bottom is upturned."

"Why are you cutting off the water?" He forced himself to endure it and never laughed.

"You shaped a rice ball into the shape of an altar, pretended to be unintentionally disappointed, and misled General Toyoda and others," Hattori Kana gritted her teeth. "How can you find the rice ball if it falls apart in water?"

Before she could speak, Hattori Kana frowned and waved her hands, "Don't deny it anymore. We have found the old man selling the rice balls. You took away all the rice balls in a pot that day. How did you three eat so much?"

Hearing what Hattori Kana said, he knew that the matter could no longer be hidden, so he simply stopped pretending, "What rice balls are called rice dumplings?"

"Since you like trading, let's do another deal," Hattori Kana said, "Tell me, what do you want?"
