Chapter Seventy-Three: Checking People
On that day, Chu Tianze went to Yanxi Palace to talk to Concubine Chen, although Concubine Chen was a little relieved, but she still couldn't stop her worry about Yun Yi. Chu Tianze's words could only make Concubine Chen barely understand his thoughts and worries as a father, but for a strange official, especially when it comes to Yunyi, she has no way not to doubt the other party's intentions, she can't trust it completely, and she can't rest assured. Therefore, in the past few days, Concubine Chen in Yiyuan has sent people to pay attention to it at all times, and she has to report to Yanxi Palace if she has any situation, especially every move of Guanguan.
"Niangniang, the people from Yiyuan came to report that the official beauty did not go to Yiyuan today. Rusu made a cup of tea and handed it to Concubine Chen, who was sitting quietly in front of the desk, and told Concubine Chen the news brought from below by the way.
"Do you know what the reason is?" Concubine Chen was a little surprised, she thought that she would listen to the following report to Guan Wan as she did a few days ago about what she did in Yiyuan, and how Yun Yi was doing today...... I didn't expect her to go.
Rusu shook her head and replied: "Seeing that the official beauty didn't go to Yiyuan, mercy sent someone to check the whereabouts of the official beauty." Qiwuyuan confirmed that the official beauty went out at about the same time as usual, but there was no one in Yiyuan. And it's strange to say that I can't find out where this official beauty is. ”
"Can a good person still disappear into this palace?" Concubine Chen frowned, "Isn't there a girl by her side?"
Rusu replied: "It's really not, that official beauty has always been alone when she goes to Yiyuan." ”
Concubine Chen's eyebrows furrowed even tighter. This official's behavior is too different from that of ordinary concubines, how can any concubine go out without bringing palace people with her? Now she doesn't even know where to go in the palace? The more mysterious Guanguan is, the more worried Concubine Chen is. Let a person with such a deep mind and such an inscrutable mind stay by Yun Yi's side, where can she put her mind at ease.
"But ......" Rusu's words interrupted Concubine Chen's contemplation.
"Huh?" Concubine Chen raised her eyebrows and motioned for Rusu to continue.
"Although the official beauty didn't go today, Miss Xuan went. Rusu said.
"Ah Xuan, what is she going to Yiyuan for?" Concubine Chen wondered. It stands to reason that Fu Xuan should be waiting in the Qianqing Palace at this moment.
"Listening to the little girl in Yiyuan, Miss Xuan accompanied the princess in Yiyuan for a while. Ru Su was not very sure and said, "The princess seemed to have asked her questions about the official beauty, and Miss Xuan simply replied that there was something to do, and she would come back tomorrow." ”
Concubine Chen smiled when she heard this, it turned out to be like this.
Seeing Concubine Chen's clear look, Rusu wondered: "Niangniang, do you know what's going on?"
"Since Ah Xuan went to Yiyuan to accompany Yun Yi on behalf of Guanguan, and it was also her explanation to Yun Yi, what else could it be?" Concubine Chen smiled, unable to see the joy and sorrow, "It is naturally the emperor's intention to let Ah Xuan come forward." ”
"What does Niangniang mean that the official beauty was summoned by the emperor?" Ru Su said in surprise.
Concubine Chen nodded: "It's no wonder that the people sent by mercy can't find out where Guanguan is." The emperor won't let him find out, who else can find out in this palace?"
Ru Su also nodded clearly when he heard this. It's just that the emperor actually summoned officials and beauties alone, which is really special. Looking at Concubine Chen's face again, it seems that she is not as sad as she imagined. Rusu thought about it, but still relieved without a trace: "Niangniang, maybe the emperor is looking for an official beauty just to ask about the princess's current situation......
Concubine Chen smiled lightly and waved her hand, where would she think about it more.
At that moment mercy came into the inner sanctum.
"Niangniang, Anzi is here. "Compassion reports.
Concubine Chen sat upright when she heard this, and said calmly: "Let him come in." ”
After a while, a eunuch followed him into the temple. "Minions see Niangniang. ”
"Flatten. Concubine Chen glanced at Anzi and asked, "How are you doing?"
Anzi stood up, but still bowed down and replied respectfully: "Back to Niangniang's words, the slave is fortunate not to be dishonored, and I have found out some situations in the past few days." ”
"Tell me. Concubine Chen said calmly.
An Zi bowed his head in the direction of Concubine Chen and replied: "This official beauty is the second daughter of the young secretary of Dali Temple, Zhiyuan's family, and there is a sister on it, who is famous in Beijing for her 'book', and is known as 'amazing and beautiful official Muyan'." Compared with her sister, the second lady of the official family is much more low-key and mediocre......"
"What you said, I can go to the inner prison or the household department, or go outside to find a few people to ask. If that's all that, why bother looking for you?" said dissatisfiedly, "Have you found anything special?"
Anzi smiled and said to mercy: "Don't worry, girl, the slave replied to Niangniang's words as soon as he entered the hall, and he found some unknown ......."
Concubine Chen immediately waved her hand to stop Anzi's words, looked at him and said coldly, "This palace doesn't want to know anything else about Guanguan, just need to know whether she is innocent and how she has been since she was a child, and there is no need to say anything else." ”
Anzi was surprised when he heard Concubine Chen's words, the master in this palace didn't want to dig up as many things as possible when he asked him to do something, where did he just listen to this? Alas, it's a pity......
Although Anzi was a little disappointed, he still didn't dare to offend Concubine Chen, and still replied respectfully: "This official beauty rarely appeared at the banquet of the young lady of the Shangjing family in the past, and few people know her well. The slaves searched all over the relationship in Beijing, and many people said they didn't know. There are not many people in this official house, and they are all loyal, and their mouths are very tight. Fortunately, an aunt who had left the palace that the slave knew was a relative of a girl in the house, and she talked a little and learned something. ”
Concubine Chen listened carefully, her brows stretched slightly, so it seems that at least the family style is good. Concubine Chen motioned for Anzi to continue.
Anzi nodded and continued: "That girl has been in the government for some years, and she knows a lot. According to what she said, the lord and wife of this official family are all kind to people, and the official Zhiyuan is honest and honest, which is not extravagant in the mansion, but it is good to the few subordinates in the mansion. The second lady of the official family also follows her parents, and her appearance, temperament, and conduct are all the best......"
"With what one person says, where can you trust it?" Mercy didn't like Guanguan very much, and when he saw Anzi boasting like this, he interrupted questioningly.
"The girl should believe in the slaves. There are many people who have seen the slaves, and there are many people who have checked them, and there are still numbers in what words are credible and what are not trustworthy. There are some people outside who have status, and sometimes they can't see what a small minion next to them sees. ”
"Hongu letter. Concubine Chen suddenly said calmly. Then he turned to Rufu and made a look, "Reward." ”
As he understood, he took a bag of silver from the box on the desk and handed it to Anzi.
"Xie Niangniang is clear, Xie Niangniang is rewarded. Anzi took it, smiled and thanked him respectfully. Looking at the weight of the bag in his hand, and thinking of Concubine Chen's trust, Anzi said rarely, "Niangniang really doesn't want to know any more ......"
