Chapter 238 Mixing in
For the past two days, the city lord's palace has been preparing for the Thousand Autumn Festival. The steward was so busy that he hit his head on the back of his head. Even if Wu Tu wanted to find someone to send a message, he couldn't reach the steward's ears.
After Wu Tu got the news, he had already used his connections to find someone. The other party heard that the person was kidnapped by people from the city lord's palace and expressed that he was helpless.
The only hope lies with the chief steward.
"Dad Niu, the chief steward of the City Lord's Mansion is a distant relative of yours, can you accommodate me?"
The more Qi Ju thought about it, the more she became afraid. There was a remote house in the city lord's palace, and the body was often taken out at midnight, just in case Qi Lin was stubborn and refused to die...
"I only have this younger brother, who is the incense of the Qi family."
The more Qi Ju thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became. She shouldn't have asked someone to go back and deliver the message, and fell into self-blame again.
Wu Tu rubbed Qi Ju's back soothingly, hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally agreed: "The chief steward is a righteous man. Although he is far away from my relatives, he may have some dignity when talking about his uncle in the clan. "
After Utu finished speaking, he didn't even believe it.
If he really had the dignity, the drinks at home would have been exclusively supplied to the City Lord's Mansion.
Besides, he is still a relative who cannot be beaten with eight poles.
The person in charge is very careful with his money, he only cares about money, and he doesn't care about human feelings at all.
Rather than gambling on the other person's conscience, it is better to prepare more generous gifts. Money is attractive and for the sake of money, difficult things become easy.
After the preliminary agreement, Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao returned to the guest house.
When night fell, Jiang Yuzhu was not sleepy at all, and she always felt that counting on Wu Tu seemed unreliable.
"If we are separated in the kitchen courtyard, how can we find out the news?"
Qi Lin's characteristics are relatively obvious, and he was arrested in the past two days to make up for the loss. As long as the benefits are enough, he can be released.
Jiang Huaiqing is different. Once the couple makes inquiries, their identity will be exposed easily.
"My subordinates sent a message that the troupe has been targeted by barbarians recently, so we should not act rashly."
Assuming that the couple infiltrated the troupe, it would be safer to enter the city lord's palace with Wu Tu.
Although it is in the fringe area, the advantage is that no one is paying attention, and you can adapt to changes when the time comes.
Xie Zhao took out a drawing of the City Lord's Mansion from his pocket and compared it with Wu Tu's sketch, it looked extremely detailed.
"Ma'am, you have to imprint the layout in your mind."
That day was the Qianqiu Festival, and the city lord's mansion was full of people, so there was a greater chance of fishing in troubled waters, but the prerequisite was that one could escape smoothly.
Xie Zhao's men were transferred to a corner gate as guards.
"That man has a mole on his lip."
Xie Zhao took out the portraits of his men again, and when Jiang Yuzhu recognized the good person, he threw them into the oil lampshade and burned them to ashes.
We guarantee that there will be no emergencies on that day.
Xie Zhao held Jiang Yuzhu's hand and warned: "Madam, once you realize that the person in the City Lord's Mansion is the second brother, you must hold on tight."
It is important to rescue Jiang Huaiqing, but the prerequisite is to protect yourself.
Xie Zhaozhen was afraid that Jiang Yuzhu would ignore her impulsively and endanger herself.
"Once you and I are forced to separate, don't panic. Your face will not be recognized now."
Xie Zhao drew a circle on the drawing and agreed on a meeting place.
There are also things to note about Ling Ling Zongzong, which Xie Zhao explained in great detail.
Jiang Yuzhu remembered it in her heart and promised: "Husband, I have a plan in my heart and know how to choose."
On the day of the Qianqiu Festival, Jiang Yuzhu was awakened by the sound of firecrackers.
It's still just dawn, smoke has already risen from every house, and the smell of meat is floating in the courtyard.
After washing properly and eating a bowl of fresh mutton wontons, Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu followed Wu Tu out of the house.
Qi Ju stroked her swollen belly, waved her hand reluctantly and said, "Godfather, Godmother, you two, please be careful!"
The jewels that the godmother used to redeem others were obtained by gangsters in the underground.
Logically speaking, Qi Lin has never contributed, and Qi Ju should not want this benefit.
Qi Ju was moved when she saw her godmother's sincerity. She would never have another child at her age. Qi Ju thought about being a filial daughter and providing for her godmother until her old age.
Qi Ju stopped refusing, and Jiang Yuzhu was relieved. She really didn't know that Qi Ju had so much inner drama.
The group of people came to the shop, counted the water and wine, loaded the car, and arrived at the city lord's mansion smoothly.
During the Qianqiu Festival, people were constantly coming and going in the kitchen courtyard.
Jiang Yuzhu observed secretly and could see that the city lord's mansion was well managed, and no idlers were allowed to approach the kitchen.
Wu Tu and Xie Zhao went to carry water and wine, and Jiang Yuzhu found a room to rest, thinking about ways to leave the kitchen courtyard and walk around to get a chance.
"Quick, here come two food delivery people carrying food boxes!"
After the kitchen steward reprimanded the cook, he was extremely busy.
Today there is already a shortage of manpower, and the young lady is still pressing for the boy's breakfast.
Ask her, when did a male favorite become so valuable?
There are some leftover leftovers from last night, so I'll make do with some heat.
At this critical juncture, we must add to the chaos!
However, the city lord only has one girl, and the kitchen manager dares to be angry but dare not speak out, so he has to do as he is told.
"The city lord temporarily ordered to add some big dishes. Originally, we had just enough manpower, but now we are not enough."
The lady in the kitchen stood up and spoke in barbarous language.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't understand. As soon as she showed her face, she was stopped by the kitchen steward.
"Where did you come from?"
Jiang Yuzhu pretended not to understand the barbaric language spoken by the kitchen steward and pointed to her ear.
The kitchen steward showed contempt and asked again in Daqi dialect: "Who did you come in with?"
"My man and I are here to deliver the drinks."
Wutu mentioned that the people in the City Lord's Mansion understand Daqi dialect, and if they are questioned, they can dispel suspicions by being generous.
The kitchen steward scanned around and saw that only Jiang Yuzhu was idle. He immediately ordered: "Take the food box and follow to deliver the food. Remember, don't say what you shouldn't say, don't look at what you shouldn't see, and be careful when asking around. Brain!”
Jiang Yuzhu's face turned pale, showing a look of fear.
Next, she followed a barbarian woman and put all the food boxes into a small cart.
The aunt led the way, walking quickly and swiftly, and Jiang Yuzhu followed closely behind, pushing the cart alone.
Entering the backyard from the kitchen courtyard is guarded by special personnel.
The mother-in-law took out a gray token. The guard looked at it before letting her go.
During the whole process, the guards did not look at their faces at all, recognizing the sign but not the person.
The sign is the key to clearing the customs. Jiang Yuzhu felt itchy in her heart. With the sign, she could escape openly!
"aunt!"
Jiang Yuzhu suppressed her throat and tried to keep her voice as low as possible.
As soon as she opened her mouth, the aunt in front of her immediately stopped and glared at Jiang Yuzhu. First she spoke excitedly in barbaric language, and then switched to Daqi language and said: "Who are you calling aunt? You don't take a picture of your face." The pleats on the clothes are enough for mosquitoes to split open! Are you the only one who can dress up like this? Old cucumber should paint it green!"
Jiang Yuzhu: "..."
"elder sister?"
Jiang Yuzhu is now an aunt. After reflection, she found that it is indeed difficult to assume the role.
The barbarian aunt's face became even worse, and she cursed: "That's what you Daqi slaves are like. You either like to call me sister or sister, and you insist on marrying someone to take advantage. I'm warning you, if you see the steward of the inner courtyard, don't look around! "
