Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 134 Enemy or friend?

The fire in Xue's house was like a breeze, and it didn't attract too many people's attention.

Mrs. Xue has always been very low-key, rarely going out, and she can only be seen during palace banquets.She was burned to death, and some of the secrets were dishonorable, so Xue Qing didn't plan to do anything big.

All the governments simply sent people to pay their respects.

Xue Qing looked coldly at the few people coming and going in the mansion, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his heart.It's one thing that he doesn't intend to make a big deal, but it's another thing to be perfunctory by others.He even suspected that the reason why those people dared to perfunctory him was that his mother had sent the words, otherwise he would not believe that those people dared to have such boldness.

Although he knew that Mrs. Xue was not his biological mother, on the surface she was still Mrs. Xue, his Xue Qing's mother!

These people don't take the old lady seriously, which means they don't take themselves seriously, how can Xue Qing bear this tone.

Knowing that Jing Bianhou brought his daughter of the princess to visit the door to mourn, Xue Qing was a little confused for a while.

He has no close friendship with Jingbianhou, and there is still a lot of suspicion. He doesn't understand why Jingbianhou came to the door at this time, and it is not easy to ask, so he can only wait patiently.

Yun Xi silently lit three incense sticks, bowed three times and thanked the servants for their kindness, took the incense sticks and inserted them into the incense burner with her own hands, and then stepped aside.

Jing Bianhou just stood aside and watched silently, and after Yun Xi finished offering incense, he exchanged a few simple greetings with Xue Qing, and then took Yun Xi away.Only Xue Qing who was confused was left standing there.Xue Qing frowned and looked at the slender figure, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.He was afraid that Marquis Jingbian would come up with some bad idea again.

If Yunxi knew what he was thinking, he would definitely tell him that you think too much!The father and daughter came here only because Yun Xi wanted to offer incense to the old lady with her own hands.

……

The news about the overhaul of the Shoukang Palace spread, and the East Palace first sent 5000 taels of silver, and then the second prince and the third prince were not far behind.

When the ministers learned that the princes had taken action, they sent housekeepers to send all the money to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.In just one day, the Ministry of Affairs received nearly 30 taels of silver, which made the emperor a little unexpected.

These silvers don't just come from court officials.When some rich merchants heard the news, they also sent silver taels one after another, trying to please the Queen Mother.That's why so many silver taels can be collected in one day.It is imperative to overhaul the Shoukang Palace this time.

Usually, this kind of thing is directly assigned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then people will design it according to the situation of Yongshou Palace, and then overhaul it.But this time the queen mother directly rejected the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and she asked to find someone to repair it.This made the Ministry of Internal Affairs very embarrassed, because this is the palace, and it is really against the rules for outsiders to repair it.But the queen mother made such a request, and they had no choice but to go to the emperor.

"An outsider?" the emperor asked.

"Yes, that's what the empress dowager said. I also feel that this matter is a bit out of order, so I come here to ask the emperor what should I do." Wang Quan was in such a dilemma for the first time since he took the job in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"There is something wrong with this matter. Since the Empress Dowager wants to hire craftsmen from outside, I think it's better for your Ministry of Internal Affairs to invite some craftsmen from outside. In this way, the Empress Dowager can also do business."

Wang Quan was overjoyed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion!"

This is an excellent opportunity to send people to sneak into the Shoukang Palace, and the emperor will fully support it.

Xue Qing learned that there was no turning point for this matter, so he had to start with the craftsman.All of a sudden, the craftsmen in the capital became very popular.Because there are not a few craftsmen needed for the overhaul of Shoukang Palace.So much so that craftsmen around the capital were also recruited.

Yunxi didn't make any move.Someone will take care of this matter. Ever since she got the news from Yue Tian, ​​she knew that this was not something she could interfere with.

The Shoukang Palace started the overhaul as scheduled, and the craftsmen arrived soon, so Yun Xi stopped paying attention to this matter.

"Is there any news about those masked people in Qingyun?" Yunxi asked.

Qing Yun frowned and said: "Master, I have used all my connections but have not found out. Those people are hiding very deeply."

"It's not your fault, it's so easy to become the emperor's hole card. Let our people be careful!"

Hong Yi said from the side: "Master, what shall we do next?"

Yunxi looked up at the sky and smiled lightly: "Of course her minions have been eliminated. How are you doing what I ordered you?"

Hongyi took out a list from her pocket, "This is from Bailin, there should be no mistake."

Yunxi took the list and her fingers trembled slightly.The names of the people above really startled her. Many people here are in important positions. Although they are not the person in charge now, they are all people who can become the person in charge at any time. If the person in charge appears If there is any accident, they will be able to step up immediately.

There are six departments on the list, and they are all in the barracks.

This is still part of the Queen Mother's power, coupled with the power on the surface, she has a great chance of overthrowing the court. What is she waiting for?

Yun Xi looked at the list but didn't know what to do. This matter is too important, if it is not handled well, it will startle the snake.

At this time, Qing Yun, who had just left the house, came back in a hurry, and said anxiously: "Master, something happened in the palace!"

Yun Xi put away the list and said softly, "What happened?"

"The news just came out. According to the palace, the Shoukang Palace encountered assassins. It seems that many people died. The news we got is that a group of masked people broke into the Shoukang Palace and were noticed. The two sides fought. They They are all masters, so the noise is a bit loud."

"How is Qing Zhi? Has he ever been injured?" Yun Xi asked quickly.

Qingyun's heart warmed, and he hurriedly said: "Master, don't worry, Qingzhi is fine. Master doesn't know, he is best at escaping. When we were training, he was known as the No. 1 escape."

Hong Yi immediately laughed, and Yun Xi felt relieved seeing this.

"Notify the palace that all operations have been suspended recently. It is too dangerous at this time!"

"Yes, this subordinate understands!" Qingyun backed out again.

"Hongyi, who do you think these masked people are? Why did they enter the Shoukang Palace?" Yunxi said.

Hongyi thought for a while, then said: "Master, could it be that the emperor asked them to investigate something?"

Yun Xi laughed, "That's right, that's probably the case. They match up, we don't need to do anything for now, just wait and see. We need to find out the identity of the masked man as soon as possible."

"Let Tsing Yi deliver the letter in person, and let Bai Lin find out their details!"

Hong Yi immediately went out to look for Qing Yi.

In Prince Xuan's mansion, Xiao Muyun sat at the head and listened to the report from the secret guard, tapping the table lightly with his fingers.

"Are you sure you read it right?" Xiao Muyun said.

"Master, that figure is indeed very similar, and his movement is indeed very similar to his subordinates and others. It's just that the situation was urgent at that time, and he escaped before he had time to catch up. But this subordinate will never be wrong!"

Xiao Muyun's fingers stopped, and he frowned.

Who is that man?Send someone to the palace to find out what?Does the old man know?
"Order, next time you meet this person, keep an eye on me, don't startle the snake."

Xiao Muyun misses Xiao Cheng very much at this moment, if he is still alive at this time, he will have someone who can give an idea...
