Bring your son to chase after your wife, please go home

Chapter 479: The Mountain Rain Is Coming
Listening to her tone of voice, Baili Changge did not look like a delirious person, so he asked, "Have you ever seen Wei Hai, the eunuch who is close to the emperor, come to look for female official Tongshi?"

"Slave... I have seen it." The old maid hung her head, her messy white hair was hanging casually on the ground, the dead air brought out by living in the dark for a long time was incompatible with the surrounding environment, she seemed to be very afraid of light, only in the I just glanced at Ye Hen and kept looking at the floor.

"Then do you know what happened after he came in?" Baili Changge asked again.

"The maidservant heard the quarrel." The old maid answered truthfully, "It seems that Eunuch Wei asked the female official Tongshi to take out the records of a certain concubine for inspection, but the female official Tongshi refused, so the two started arguing."

Looking at Ye Hen, Baili Changge continued to look at the old maid, "What happened next?"

"The maidservant doesn't know what happened later." The old maid's voice was a bit vicissitudes, "The maidservant is just a maid in charge of cleaning, and dare not stay too long outside the courtyard of the adults."

"I mean, besides these two, is there anyone else who has been to this yard?" Baili Changge walked over and squatted beside her and said in a low voice, "Here are all the people of His Royal Highness King Jin. You don't have to be afraid, just tell the truth."

"I don't know." The old maid shook her head, the protruding veins on her haggard hands were like snakes, and her voice sounded strangely hoarse.

Baili Changge's eyes moved.

Although it was early summer, the old maid still seemed to feel cold and shivered uncontrollably.

Baili Changge took off his coat and put it on her body.

The old maid froze, and slowly raised her head, the corners of her mouth twitched, her cloudy eyes had already covered up the clarity that should have been there, after a while, she slowly uttered three words, "Thank you."

Baili Changge didn't speak, just smiled.

"Master Yuan, take her to the Palace of Yonghe and take care of her. If the emperor asks, tell her that this is our most important witness." Ye Hen ordered Yuan Guanghao.

When the old maid heard the word "emperor", she quickly shook her head desperately, "The slaves and maidservants only belong to Yongning Lane. I never thought of going out one day. I beg His Royal Highness King Jin and the two adults to help me."

Yongning Lane is a truly peaceful place in this deep palace. Those who can live in Yongning Lane are all maids who have never been assigned to serve in other palaces. Some people have been waiting here since the day they entered the palace until His head is full of white hair, and the years are wasted.

"Don't be afraid." Baili Changge comforted her softly, "We are investigating this case, and I'm afraid we will need you to testify at that time."

"Your servant only knows how to sweep and sweep, and doesn't know anything else." The old maid took off the coat she was wearing and returned it to her, stood up tremblingly, and ran outside. When she ran to the door, she suddenly stopped and looked back. Ye Hen took a look, then turned his head resolutely, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Based on feeling, she must know you." After the old maid left, Baili Changge's eyes still stayed at the place where the old maid stopped.

"But I don't know her." Ye Hen's gaze also stayed at that position, and his eyes were a little dazed, as if he heard the words that the old maid said when she first came in.

She said: unexpectedly...it has grown so big.

"You really have a lot of royal secrets." Baili Changge looked back and sighed slightly.

"The harem has always been a place of right and wrong." Ye Hen murmured: "As you said, some people may hold a secret in this deep palace until they die and no one cares about it."

"You're right." Baili Changge nodded, "Whether it's a concubine who has fallen out of favor or an old maid who has been guarding Yongning Lane all her life, there are resentments buried in the wrinkles on their faces of varying shades. The air of darkness has even become the air of death." After a pause, he added: "Compared to the dark and rotten palace wrapped in rich clothes and fine food, I still yearn for a life of indulging in mountains and rivers."
