8. Chapter 8 King Jin Mansion

Following Uncle Li into the palace, he walked windingly into a yard. Uncle Li stopped and turned around and made a gesture of inviting people. "Young Master, what do you think of this place?"

Xiyan looked at the yard in front of her and there was a wooden sign with the words "Xiaoxiang Xiaozhu" written on it horizontally on the open wooden door. There were also some Xiaoxiang bamboos in the yard, and even the houses were made of bamboo. Elegant and unconventional, which was what she liked.

"Thank you, Uncle Li, I think it's very good. Uncle Li really has a pair of sharp eyes."

Uncle Li smiled and said, "Since the young master likes it, how about rest here? The young master goes in and rest first, I will call a few girls to come and serve."

"Then... it's time for Uncle Zhong. Xiyan nodded and walked into the courtyard on her own.

Except for the lack of a pond, this place is somewhat similar to her house in the Qilian Mountains in Xicheng.

Sitting on the soft collapse without hesitation, curling her lips. If it weren't for that guy Wanyan Yi, how could she have disclosed the news to Nangong Jin? If it weren't for Wanyan Yi, she would have been sleeping comfortably in Biluo now! Where would she stay here and be monitored by someone?! Although this place is good, although she can't monitor her, it is not her own territory after all...

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Xiyan immediately jumped up and sat upright on the stool. After a while, the knock on the door rang out.

Bang bang-

"Young Master? I am Xiao Qiao. The housekeeper asked me to clean up the bed for you."

"Come in,."

Xiaoqiao heard the lazy voice of the people in the house and carefully opened the door with her arms.

Xiyan looked at her like that. She just heard the footsteps of her alone, thinking that she was just here to serve her tea or something. Unexpectedly, a maid came to her with a brocade quilt and clean up the bed.

Han Xiao walked up to take the quilt from the girl's hand and joked, "Why are you the only one? Could it be that Butler Li was so stingy that he asked you to serve me, or he intended to make things difficult for you?"

Xiaoqiao was going to refute her words, but when he saw him grabbing the quilt from his hand, he was stunned for a moment and was anxious to snatch the quilt back.

Xiyan shook her head, "I'd better help you put the quilt on the bed, and you can clean it up again. Such a small body holds such a thick quilt, which is tormenting."

"No..." Xiaoqiao followed her and walked into the inner room, explaining to her eagerly: "Butler Li did not mean disrespect to the young master, nor did he deliberately make things difficult for me. He said that the young master was a lonely person, and he was afraid that he didn't like many people, so he called me to serve the young master alone. It was me who was lazy and brought the bedding in one go... all over..."

"Uh, come and clean it up. Once you have packed it, go and have someone prepare hot water for me to take a bath. I'll go to the yard to take a break first." Unexpectedly, the butler who looks like an old-fashioned person is quite good at guessing people...

Xiyan put the quilt on the bamboo bed and turned around and walked towards the yard.

The palace, in the Panlong Hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Nangong Jin yelled anxiously, "Brother, I just got the news that Jin Xi had already left my Dayue, but it's true?"

Nangong Yu glanced at him, Jin Xi left Dayue? When did this happen? Why didn’t he, the emperor, know? "Who did you hear? If you leave, why would you still pay tribute every year? Why didn’t you have any news from Shangguan?"

Nangong Jin thought his emperor brother didn't believe him, although he also thought the emperor brother was right, but...
