Chapter 47: The Time of Jingzhu Garden Meets the Old Mouse Again

  Tang Gu and Mo You accompanied me and my maid into the bamboo garden. The others stayed outside.

  "The yard is quiet, but... hasn't this place been burned by fire? Why are the walls all black?" Tang Gu asked doubtfully.

  I shrank my neck and deliberately ignored the murderous gaze that swept over me. This guy is really something, his eyes flashed with such a heavy killing intent! Alright alright, it seems I have to take action myself.

  "Hmm, Princess, you don't know, this bamboo garden hasn't been inhabited for decades (how many years has this prime minister's mansion been built?). It's inevitable that weeds and snakes, insects, rats, and ants are running around everywhere! So I simply took the initiative to burn it all down with one fire! Do you think my method is good?"

  "Uh-huh, it's fine." Tang Gu nodded and went into the house.

  The ghost of that dead man stored in my heart and argued with me, saying: "How can you call yourself 'I', this is a behavior beyond your rank."

  "It doesn't matter, I'll give her special privileges anyway." Tang Gu said, sitting on a wooden chair: "This house is really clean."

  "That's right, princess, you don't know that I spent three whole days and nights without sleep or rest to sweep the house inside and out until it was spotless!"

  Xiao Qian's inner monologue: Shameless! Not only did you exploit me, but you also tell lies without even blushing!

  "Hmm..." Tang Gu looked around and suddenly shouted: "A rat!"

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, a big fat mouse was squeaking in the corner of the wall. I thought to myself, it looks just like the mouse I met last time. But apparently my daydreaming wasn't timely. Mo Yu picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it at the corner of the table, throwing it forward, the mouse's body was pierced through, and it stopped moving instantly.

  "Someone, clean this up!" After Mo You gave the order, he turned to me and said: "How did you sweep? Disturbing the princess, take him out and beat him with fifty big boards first!" As soon as the words fell, two large inner guards rushed over to drag me away.

  "Hey, wait a minute." The princess beckoned to stop: "This palace, this palace just likes watching mice, and earlier this palace was shouting out in surprise."

  My eyes are brimming with tears: You're really my good sister, you can come up with such a ridiculous reason. If I said this, I guarantee that the next day Mo Yu would definitely throw me into the pit of ten thousand rats.

  Ying Mo Yu seemed somewhat unwilling: "Since it's the princess's intention, put her down."

  I escaped and ran to the princess's side with a triumphant smile, proudly raising an eyebrow at him: Now we have a powerful backer, I'm not afraid of you!

  Ying Mo Yu saw it, and directly treated me as an invisible person. He said to Tang Gu Xiang: "The princess will temporarily stay here for the time being. Three days later, the imperial palace will send someone to pick up the princess. I'll retire first."

  He didn't even give me a glance and turned around to leave the hall.

  Tang Gu's smile remained until Mo Yu's figure disappeared, then she poked my forehead with her finger and said in a resentful tone: "You, you, causing me so much trouble!"

  "Ouch ouch ouch!" I said, covering my forehead: "Don't you like mice?"

  "Yes, I also like eating mice!" Tang Gu said with a glare at me.

  "Huh? I didn't expect your taste to be so unique, how do you usually eat mice, deep-fried? Steamed? Or boiled?" I excitedly asked as I leaned forward.

  "I'll have you cooked!" Tang Gu scolded me with a glance.

  "Hehehe." I went forward and hugged Tang Guo, coquettishly saying: "I know you're the best, so forgive me, okay?"

  Tang Gu rubbed the virtual sweat on his forehead: Fortunately, he didn't let a few maidservants follow in, otherwise they would see this scene and it wouldn't be a big mess?
