Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 586 Old ginger, watertight

Raising his eyes, Chu Sijiu looked at Shiquan, "Don't you feel it?"

Shiquan was slightly startled, "How do you feel?"

"That court lady named Damei was beaten to death alive, so you have no compassion?" Chu Sijiu looked at him seriously.

Shiquan lowered his eyes and said dryly.

"The noble concubine, the servant girl's hometown was flooded, my father drowned, my sister starved to death, before my mother died of illness, I asked someone to send me to the palace to be a eunuch. Although I was missing a piece of my body, I could eat a full meal The servants have been in the palace for these years, and every month they see eunuchs or maids being punished with sticks or sinking wells because they did something wrong. The compassion of the servants is exhausted."

Chu Sijiu was stunned.

After a moment of silence, she asked lightly, "What about the third thing?"

Shiquan seemed to take a deep breath, and said slowly, "The old eunuch Zhaofeng threw himself into the well, and Eunuch Fuhai tried his best to track down his movements before his death."

Chu Sijiu raised her eyebrows, "Why?"

Shiquan frowned in a rare way, and looked at her sideways, with a somewhat complicated expression, "This servant knows a rumor, which can correspond to a guess."

Chu Sijiu looked at him quietly, "Let's listen."

"This has a lot to do with it, and the empress will let it go after hearing it." Shiquan said seriously.

"Okay." Chu Sijiu answered simply.

Shiquan nodded, if he didn't want to hug his thigh, he wouldn't have thrown this kind of private thing out.

"Your Majesty should know that most people would not send their children into the palace to be eunuchs unless they were in a desperate situation. Correspondingly, if the eunuchs in the palace are not orphans, they have a poor family. Your Majesty also You should know that the harem is the most complicated place in the world. All the dignitaries of the previous dynasty wanted to get their hands on the harem, and they would set nails in the palace. Especially the eunuch with a poor family, after being selected as a nail, there will be someone every month If you give money to his family, if you give ten times or even a hundred times the money for a month, it means that you need to do things with nails. Generally speaking, it is life in exchange."

Chu Sijiu felt that his body was chilly, that was a dead soldier.

If there is such a nail who accepts the order to kill her and rushes directly, there is no way to prevent it.

Seeing her gasping for breath, Shiquan comforted him, "Don't worry, the matter of nails was dealt with severely by the late emperor like the poison of the past. Many people were killed inside and outside the palace, and they even got married with several big families. We made an agreement, and now there are almost no nails in the palace."

"Oh." Chu Sijiu let out a sigh of relief.

"Almost none, doesn't mean none at all."

Shiquan came back again, "I also heard from an old eunuch. He said that if there are still nails in the palace, they must be very old. Mr. Fuhai is a veteran, and he attaches so much importance to Zhaofeng's death." , presumably this Zhaofeng is suspicious."

Chu Sijiu looked at him approvingly, "That's right, there has been some progress."

Shiquan pursed his lips, concealing the pride in his heart.

Chu Sijiu glanced at him thoughtfully, "Shiquan, the information you provided today is very useful, and the analysis is also in place. I plan to reward you, tell me, what do you want?"

Shiquan was a pedant, so he didn't realize that Chu Sijiu actually gave him the discount because he couldn't bear it after hearing about his life experience.

He seriously took out two copper coins from his sleeve pocket, "I want to exchange two ingots of silver with my mother."

Chu Sijiu couldn't help laughing, and took the copper plate wordlessly, "I'll give you the silver later."

"Aren't you going to turn around?" Shiquan asked.

Chu Sijiu was convinced, and handed him one, "Come and see."

"Okay." Shiquan was not polite.

He took it, held down the sleeve, twisted his fingers, and the small copper plate was evenly stressed, and it spun slowly, without falling down for a long time.

Chu Sijiu was taken aback, and her dark eyes were fixed tightly.

at last.

The speed of the copper plate slowed down, and with a "click", it fell down.

Chu Sijiu let out a long sigh of relief, and turned her head to stare at Shiquan, she must have been sent by God to scare her.

Shiquan looked at her suspiciously, "Your servant has practiced many times, if the empress is not satisfied, you can do it again."

"Satisfied, very satisfied." Chu Sijiu really thanked him.

……

On a hot day, Fuhai didn't care about the scorching sun, he went through every palace, called all the eunuchs and maids, and asked them carefully.

As a result of the investigation, today Zhaofeng first received a letter from home and read it calmly.After that, as usual, I went to each palace to check the flowers and plants.

When you see the withered ones, move them out, and then bring in the fresh ones.

Nothing wrong with it.

Fu Hai thoroughly searched his residence, and all the letters disappeared.

A court lady said that she saw Zhao Feng burning weeds in the corner of the palace.Not surprisingly, all the evidence was burned by him.

"It's old ginger after all, it doesn't leak water." Fu Hai sighed.

Thinking about it carefully, he has been favored by people for so many years, and this time before he leaves, he really can't leave trouble for others.

After such a big incident happened, Fu Hai was also full of black lines.With staggering steps, he walked depressingly to the meeting hall to report.

Dongfang Hao's complexion was dark, and he listened to his report patiently.

He pondered, and tapped his fingers lightly on the desk.

After a while, he asked in a low voice, "From your point of view, which family will Zhaofeng be the thorn in the door?"

Fu Hai frowned, "Your Majesty, to be able to raise a nail of Zhao Feng's age, it must be a well-established mansion, and there are several houses in Yecheng that meet the conditions. This old slave dare not speak nonsense."

Dongfang Hao frowned, narrowed his bottomless eyes slightly, and said in a calm tone, "If the nail moves, it must be a major event. Is there anything strange in the harem?"

Fu Hai rolled his eyes, and said uncertainly, "Concubine De killed a court lady today."

Dongfang Hao's eyes flashed, "Is there any doubt?"

Fu Hai shook his head slowly, "It's not a big deal for the concubine to beat the maid to death. What's more, the maid did make a mistake."

A coldness flashed across Dongfang Hao's eyes, "Word has passed that Zhaoyang Palace closes the palace gates and no one else is allowed to visit."

Fu Hai was slightly startled, "What does the emperor think?"

"Let's do it." Dongfang Hao didn't explain, he lowered his head and continued to read the memorial.

Fu Hai didn't dare to ask further questions, "Yes, Your Majesty."

He stepped back slowly, but his mind was complicated, silently guessing the emperor's train of thought.

……

Zhaoyang Palace.

Murong Qingxue wore her favorite pale yellow palace dress. The skirt was embroidered with yellow silk butterflies about to fly. The wide skirt meandered to the ground, elegant and luxurious, and also gave off a bit of dusty temperament.

She smiled, looking at Dongfang Yanjin with warm eyes, "Is the concubine beautiful?"

"Pretty, mother concubine is the most beautiful." Yan Jin nodded vigorously.

Murong Qingxue pursed her lips, the halo of beauty was very dazzling, "Yan Jin is good, you must remember the appearance of mother and concubine."

Yan Jin was a little uneasy, his black eyes fixed on her, "Where is the concubine going?"

Murong Qingxue knelt down and touched his face, "Mother Concubine is going to embroider."

"Oh." Yan Jin let out a sigh of relief.

Standing up, Murong Qingxue looked at the palace maid Baoli behind her, and said in a calm voice, "You heard about that day, right?"

Baoli's face turned pale, "Your Majesty, this servant has never told anyone."

Murong Qingxue smiled, and said slowly, "Yan Jin was brought up by you, and when he reaches the last step, you know who to take him to."

"Your Majesty." Baoli clenched her fingers tightly, and her palms were covered with sweat.

"Don't be afraid, everything that should come will come." Lowering her eyes, Murong Qingxue glanced at Yan Jin again, feeling a lot of reluctance in her heart.

Yanjin, you will have a future when your mother and concubine are gone.

Don't worry, your father will protect you.
