Why doesn't this king's concubine compete for favor?

Chapter 239 Sweet talk, easy to pinch

Qiu Yuebai continued:
"The king has now obtained a confession from the relevant person. He learned that Jiubao is a person from Wenmingyue. This king must thoroughly investigate this matter. Liu Pen is following this king's order to interrogate Wenmingyue. I believe there will be a result."

Jiang Xin nodded obediently. The person who was hiding behind the rockery that day was Wenming Yue. She had known about this for a long time, but she never paid attention to this vicious female supporting role.

But when this matter was revealed suddenly, Jiang Xin still felt a little strange, so she asked:
"My lord, who provided this confession?"

Qiuyue Bai said:

"Liu Pen has been secretly investigating this matter before, this time it was Liu Pen who discovered the anomaly in time, so the king sent people to deploy, and finally discovered the sneaky behavior of the little eunuch in the side courtyard."

Jiang Xin knew about Liu Pen's abilities, but he never expected him to be so capable.

"My lord, can I go to the inner prison?" Jiang Xin asked.

As soon as this remark came out, Qiu Yuebai sternly rejected it:
"No, you stay in Nuanyang Palace obediently, you can't go anywhere."

Jiang Xin flattened her mouth, not happy.

Qiu Yuebai's tone slowed down a bit, she put her arm around Jiang Xin's shoulder, and coaxed softly:
"It's almost Chinese New Year now, and there are still many things waiting for you to deal with in the mansion. The huge backyard of the Xunyang Prince's Mansion, now you have the final say. If Xin'er doesn't help the king with some internal affairs, how can the king manage it?" , Xin'er said, right?"

Qiu Yuebai knows that Jiang Xin likes to listen to nice things, and he is also very quick at mastering this kind of sweet talk, and it is easy to use it on Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin was really happy, she raised her face and let out an 'hmm' happily.

Then quickly took the opportunity to say:
"Then Mammy Li and the others are going to sacrifice the stove tomorrow, can I also go with them?"

Qiu Yuebai thought about it, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. This sacrifice to the stove was originally a folk tradition, and the sacrifice to the stove was to worship the God of the Kitchen God. The common people used this to place their expectations on "having enough food and clothing" for the whole year in the future. I don't know when it started At that time, this custom also began to spread among the nobles of the Kyoto family.

The Xunyang Palace has always disliked participating in such activities, so every year it just sent Nanny Li to perfunctory.

Jiang Xin always likes to be lively, so of course she doesn't want to miss such an occasion.

Seeing that Qiu Yuebai did not object, she took another step forward:
"Then I want Master Shu to accompany me."

Qiu Yuebai thought for a while and said:

"The king will arrange guards to escort all the way, and bring more people to ensure safety."

Seeing that Qiu Yuebai agreed, Jiang Xin hurried back to Nuanyang Palace to prepare.
-
Haixiang Mansion.

Hai Xiang looked at his daughter who had been sleeping on the bed, and his heart was tightened. The pain of fear of losing his daughter was really unbearable for him.

It's not easy to agree to Pylorus. To lure a concubine from a deep house to Yuhe, Pylorus really can't do it by himself, so he found him again.

But how can he do it? Just as Prime Minister Hai was racking his brains to find a way, Steward Qian, who was in charge of internal affairs in the backyard of Haifu, came to report that tomorrow's stove sacrifice ceremony had been confirmed to be held in the south of the capital city.

Hai Xiang was so angry that he directly threw an incense burner at hand:
"What time is it, why do you still mention the stove?"

Qian Guanshi was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to admit his mistake:

"The prime minister calm down, the prime minister calm down, the villain is thinking that there are many high-ranking and powerful families participating in this sacrifice, and even the Xunyang Palace has just sent a letter saying that all the nobles of the Xunyang Palace will participate, so the villain is thinking that this is not the case. Small things so, so."

When Prime Minister Hai heard this, two rays of light shot out of his eyes immediately.
