Chapter 33: Ling'er Rises at Night

I listened to this and wasn't too surprised. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because "Ling'er is the person of Concubine De", I have known for a long time, and I have been on guard for a long time. If that's all Dong'er told me, I'd suspect that she was trying to get my trust in exchange for Ling'er. But the next thing she said made me shocked and a little flustered.

"Little Master...... Ling'er ...... Today Hurt the little master!" The panic on Dong'er's face did not diminish because of my calmness, but because of my calmness, I probably thought that I didn't believe her, my body trembled a little, and I said in a panic.

When I heard this, I couldn't calm down. I stood up from my seat suddenly, a little puzzled, and a little nervous and said, "How did you know about Ling'er?" Naturally, I was afraid. Not only was I afraid that what Dong'er said was true, and that I was about to face a conspiracy, but I was also afraid that if Dong'er was sent by someone else, my situation would be even more dangerous.

"Little Master...... What the slave and maid said is true, if there is half a sentence to conceal, then the slave and the maid will be thundered and struck in the sky, and they will not die well......! The night before yesterday, because I drank too much water before going to bed, in the middle of the night, the slave maid got up at night, and found that Ling'er was not in the room in a daze......" said, as if recalling the scene that night, and continued with some confusion in her eyes: "The slave maid was just outside Ling'er, and she also got up at night...... It's just that before the slave maid reached the Gongfang, she saw Ling'er quietly open the palace gate and sneak out......"

The slave was just curious, where was Ling'er going in the middle of the night, so she didn't think much about it, and followed her out of the palace. The slave maid had the slightest idea of startling her, so she didn't call her, but just followed her left and right into a small alley that she didn't often visit. The slave waited for her to come over, and followed. Finally, I found out that there was a eunuch over there who connected with her!"

Speaking of this, Rong Yan and I couldn't help but glance back at each other, and we both estimated it in our hearts, and I interrupted her words: "That eunuch is the person next to Concubine De? It's just a black light, how do you know that he is the eunuch next to Concubine De?"

Dong'er saw that I still had questions, so she explained carefully: "Back to the little master, the slave maid didn't know where the eunuch came from...... I thought that I was going to come back first, and then I would teach her well when she came back, so that she would break off the relationship with the eunuch...... It's just that the slave and maid were just about to leave, when they heard the eunuch vaguely saying the words 'Wen Guiren', so the slave and maid did not go away, but stayed and continued to listen to what they said......"

"And what did they say?" I asked, feeling a little impatient, as I heard her say. Rong Yan shook his head at me, meaning that he didn't want my question to interrupt Dong'er's train of thought, I saw that her expression was solemn, and I also knew in my heart that I had been asking a little unruly. No matter what happens, I should be calm and think carefully about how to solve it. If you mess with yourself, you will only allow the enemy to take advantage of the opportunity. It doesn't do me any good. I nodded at Rong Yan, meaning to tell her I understood. Then listen carefully to Dong'er's narration and no longer interject.

Dong'er carefully recounted the whole story, as if she had never seen my eye contact with Rong Yan, sorted out her thoughts, and continued: "The slave is quietly listening...... I just listened to the eunuch...... We want to take this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone...... What else... Let the noble people don't think about having a chance to turn over..."Dong'er thought carefully about what she heard that night, her little face was full of solemnity, and she didn't seem to be able to remember it.

After thinking about it, he said: "The slave and maid were far away that day, and some of the words were not so true, but the slave and maid were sure that the slave and maid heard the eunuch say that day, 'This thing is done, Concubine De Niangniang will naturally reward you well', and I still remember mentioning the palace banquet, what pastries, Li Guiren and other words." ”

The slave and maid remembered that the eunuch had said that she wanted Ling'er to blame the little master! The slave and maid came back in a panic and lay down on the bed and pretended to be asleep. Later, Ling'er came back and took a closer look at my bed. The slave's heart jumped to her throat at that time, and she only pretended to be asleep. After Dong'er finished speaking, she suddenly remembered a sentence and hurriedly added.

Rong Yan stepped forward at this time, circled around Dong'er, but asked lightly: "Oh, then since you are so surprised, why didn't you tell the little master earlier? Do you know that if this really happens, the little master is unlucky, and you, as the slave of the little master, how can you escape the responsibility?"

When Dong'er heard this, she hurriedly kowtowed and pleaded guilty: "The slave and maid should die, the slave and maid wanted to hide this matter...... It's just because the slave maid has been like a sister with Ling'er since she entered the palace, and she always supports each other with Ling'er in everything, and Ling'er is kind to me! It is indeed a capital crime for the slave and maid to conceal it, but the slave and maid also have their own hardships......"

After a pause, he said, "Aunt Rong Yan, you should know that if the palace maid is sick, she will be sent to the deserted garden, and she will be left to fend for herself, so as not to give the master too much sickness." Back then... The slave and maid accidentally caught a cold and had a fever, and it was Ling'er who guarded the slave and maid all night and took care of the slave and maid, and the slave and maid came back to life!"

Rong Yan was unmoved: "It's not easy to be a palace maid, I do know it." It's just that if, as you say, Ling'er is kind to you, but you still have to confess her, isn't it ungrateful? If you are so ungrateful, how can you make the little master believe that what you say is true?"

Dong'er smiled bitterly: "The slave maid really thought that even if she was tortured or lost her life because of this matter, she would not give Ling'er up...... It's just that... It's not just Ling'er who is kind to the slave and maid, the little master... There is also a great kindness to the slaves and maids!"

Rong Yan was a little confused at this time, but I understood a little. He simply asked, "You know everything?"

Dong'er didn't hold back the tears in her eyes for a while, and warm tears flowed from her two dark pearl-like glasses. She said: "The kindness of the little master, the slave and maid cannot be repaid...... The slave maid only found out yesterday that the last time Xiaofuzi went out of the palace, he was to send a letter to the family for the little master, and the slave in the Xianfu Palace was afraid that the adults would have sent someone to go through it a long time ago... The adult cured the slave's mother... I also arranged for my younger brother to go to school... Slave ......"

As she spoke, Dong'er became even more excited. I asked Rong Yan to help her up, and poured her another cup of tea to let her relax. She took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears. He continued: "When the slave maid entered the palace at that time, she wanted to exchange herself for silver to serve as her mother's medical expenses... Now the little master's move has fulfilled all the expectations of the slave and maid, and the slave and the maid are not able to repay the kindness of the little master even if they are cows and horses, so naturally they can't watch the little master being framed!"
