Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 337 Eavesdropping
Hearing Wei Changzai yell, a black shadow flew past the window.

"Who! Who's outside!" Wei Chang hurried over to open the window, but there was no one outside.

A court lady heard Wei Changzai's voice, thought something happened, hurriedly came out from the side room, and asked: "What happened, Young Master Wei?"

Wei Chang took a look, it was a young maid, the height gap was too big compared to the shadow she saw, so she asked in a cold voice: "Did you see anyone who ran past just now? "

"Human? Well... it seems that there is a father-in-law, ah, that Eunuch Kang who is in charge of the backyard!" The little maid lowered her head and thought, and suddenly remembered the name: "Yes, I see that he is leaving in a hurry, as if It's like being chased by someone, thinking that something happened, I came out to check, but I heard Chang calling for someone."

Wei Changzai narrowed her eyes slightly, she coughed lightly, and said, "Go and call that Eunuch Kang over."

After the little maid saluted, she didn't dare to neglect, and hurried to find someone.

Chen Wenxin sat in the room, a little uneasy, she asked: "What's the matter, who is eavesdropping outside?"

"I don't know, my concubine saw a person flashing past just now, and a little girl came over and said it was Mr. Kang." Wei Changzai frowned tightly, his face full of anxiety.

"Little girl?" Chen Wenxin asked suddenly.

Wei Changzai was about to ask who Eunuch Kang was, but when Chen Wenxin asked her, she was a little surprised, and just nodded: "Yes, it's a little girl. The figure I saw was as high as half a window, and that little girl only It's half a body higher than the window, so it shouldn't be that person."

Chen Wenxin's complexion did not improve, she continued to ask with a sullen face, "What does she look like?"

"Just wearing the clothes of a court lady, um... she has big eyes, and she looks quite cute. There is a mole under the corner of her eye, and it is here." Wei Changzai pointed to the corner of her right eye. She saw Chen Wenxin His complexion was even worse, so he asked, "Why isn't she from here?"

"No, it should be from my palace, it's just..." Chen Wenxin said as she glanced at Bai Lu, who immediately nodded and trotted out.

Seeing Wei Chang sitting on the side with a guilty face, Chen Wenxin realized that his attitude should have frightened her, so he slowed down and said: "My palace has just been rectified, and all the little maids have been kicked out. A few big ones were caught, and a few outsiders were locked up in the firewood room, and they haven't been tried yet."

"Could it be..." Wei Chang realized that she felt even more guilty.

"Probably, but you don't have to blame yourself. Even if I find out that she is outside, I may not be able to catch her." Chen Wenxin said in relief. She originally wanted to keep those two people and asked them who they were. Who's who.

It's just that Xiao Xiazi committed suicide in fear of crime, which means that there must be cruel people behind them, so they might not confess.

Chen Wenxin raised her head, seeing that Wei Changzai was still not relaxing, she sat down and patted her hand: "And maybe it's not those two girls."

Wei Chang nodded and said nothing.

Chen Wenxin sighed, and was about to say something, but Bai Lu came back, with some doubts on her face: "Qingwenxiwen is being watched."

"It's not them, is there a girl with a mole on the corner of her right eye in the palace?"

"...This slave girl asked Yingge, and they all said that there was no one else except Qingwen who had a mole in the corner of her eye." Bai Lu shook her head, and she also specifically asked the guard guarding the firewood room. Not a step left, and someone confirmed what they said.

It shouldn't be that they colluded and lied, but in this way, who can sneak into Yikun Palace quietly.

The guards outside did not all withdraw. The emperor was afraid that Chen Wenxin would be jealous of her because she was released, so he asked them to stay to protect Chen Wenxin.

Those are all people from the front of the imperial court, how could Wei Changzai find out that they could sneak into Yikun Palace from under their noses.

The three of them fell into confusion, but it was Chen Wenxin who came to his senses first. She patted Wei Changzai on the shoulder: "No matter what, no matter who it is, let's keep an eye on Su Liang first. If there is nothing wrong with him, we Just follow the plan."

Wei Changzai nodded, because she felt guilty, she volunteered to go back to find someone to look after Su Liang, but Chen Wenxin didn't keep her, and let her go first after saying a few words of greeting.

After the people left, she revealed her worry: "Who is this? Why is it listening to the corner outside? The doors and windows are not closed, and there are maids cleaning the yard outside. Didn't she see it?"

What Chen Wenxin asked was the little palace lady who was pruning the branches and flowers outside the window. She didn't let Bai Lu go out to guard because she saw someone standing outside. She didn't expect that even so, it was still a loophole.

It's just that the court lady Bai Lu also asked, she said that she saw only one person carrying tea, she thought it was the tea delivery person, so she didn't care, so she didn't know when she left, let alone where she went.

"Forget it, you ask Yingge to send someone to investigate, and carefully question the people in the palace, but you must tell if you see anything wrong. Now there is not so much time to waste on this, Zeng Guiren and the princess Things..." Chen Wenxin said, she suddenly frowned: "Why do I feel that these things happened so strangely?"

"What's wrong? Your Majesty means that someone caused these things on purpose?" Bai Lu speculated.

"I can't tell... In this way, you can find someone to find Zhang Guiren, call her, and let's go and see the Zeng family together." Chen Wenxin always felt that it was not a coincidence that these things were so concentrated, maybe someone was hiding in the dark Trying to do something about her.

If this is the case, then Zeng may have been provoked by someone. If she knew who was behind her, she might be able to follow the clues to catch that person.

Although Bai Lu didn't know what Chen Wenxin was thinking, but seeing her like this, she knew that she must have an idea, so she sent someone to invite Mrs. Zhang without asking.

Unexpectedly, it was a coincidence that Mrs. Zhang was about to see Concubine Qin, and the maids of the two met on the way. When Mrs. Zhang heard Chen Wenxin said that she was going to see Mrs. Zeng, she waited halfway.

After receiving the reward, Chen Wenxin tidied up a bit and got up.

Mrs. Zhang was waiting at the Katydite Gate, which was not far from Yongshou Palace. She led the palace servants there, but she saw Mrs. Zhang scolding a young maid.

"Which palace are you from! Tell me quickly!" Zhang Guiren seemed very angry, and the little maid was kneeling at her feet, sobbing non-stop.

"What's wrong, nobleman? Why are you here to reprimand the servants?" Chen Wenxin hurriedly walked over, she looked down at the little palace lady, she couldn't tell which palace she was from, there was a large red birthmark on her face, she looked very attractive people.

Zhang Guiren was reprimanding that person, but when she heard Chen Wenxin's voice, she turned her head and saw that it was Chen Wenxin who had come. She saluted quickly and walked over, with lingering anger still in her tone: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, my minister The concubine heard the news from the empress and waited here for the empress, but who knew that this girl rushed over without even looking!"

"That's right, Concubine Qin. This court lady rushed towards her as if someone was chasing her from behind, but she bumped into her head, and almost knocked her down! But this girl, standing up and thinking Let's go!" The maid next to Zhang Guiren became very angry when she mentioned this.

She pointed at the little maid and scolded: "She has no rules at all. I thought she was from the Empress's Palace when she came from the Empress's Palace. The slave asked her where she was from. She said it was from the Yikun Palace. Then she suddenly changed her words and said it was Xin Zheku, and this servant felt that this girl must have done something shameful!"

As soon as the little maid heard her so much, she lowered her head even lower, as if she didn't want others to see her face.

Seeing her like this, Chen Wenxin became curious.She sneered and looked at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu also had the same thought. She walked over and grabbed the little maid's shoulder, lifted her up for comparison, and said, "It seems that this is karma. Let's go, my aunt has something to ask you."

……

The katydid gate over there caught a prisoner and made a mess. Unexpectedly, the Yongshou Palace was already in chaos at this time.

"Guo Changzai, what do you mean by this sentence? A concubine is the same concubine of the emperor as you, and now I am a nobleman, and you are just a little Changzai. If you are so bloody, aren't you afraid that I will tell the emperor! " Zeng Guiren sat in his palace, looking at Guo Changzai sternly.

Guo Changzai had never had a good face towards her, even if he knew that she was a nobleman, even nobleman Xiao Tong gave her a symbolic gift to congratulate her, but she didn't go to congratulate her.

Zeng Guiren didn't even have any good feelings for this Guo Changzai. Back then, the city was full of turmoil, and his own face was thrown outside the Great Wall. He never thought that he could enter the palace so brazenly.

Now it is even more so, actually caught that matter and made a big fuss in her place.

Guo Changzai was wearing blue clothes, with a cloak of white snow and red plums outside, holding a golden carved and hollowed-out hand stove with hundreds of flowers blooming in his hand, with only light makeup on his face, and a big red flower on his forehead.

At first glance, she is a cold beauty, but the twisted and sarcastic expression on her face adds a hint of evil in the coldness.

She raised the corner of her mouth and sneered, "What do you mean? That's what you mean. Mr. Zeng, you are so embarrassed to say that as a nobleman, you don't know how to behave with the guards! If you have the courage to tell the emperor, go Tell it."

Zeng Guiren's face was even more gloomy. She looked at Guo Changzai coldly, and squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth: "Guo Changzai shouldn't spitting blood, you have to rely on evidence."

Guo Changzai burst out laughing when she heard this, she stared at Zeng Guiren, and said: "Okay, Zeng Guiren wants to see the evidence, my concubine will show you the evidence, come here, give me the things Bring it up!"
