At this time, it was already late at night, and the fire had not been turned off except for one stove in the dining room, and hot water was prepared, just in case the master wanted to eat something temporarily. The three little eunuchs www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion were guarding, and they also made wine and food full of oil.

Hu Jiu led people to the dining room, and the three eunuchs heard the movement and hurriedly cleaned up the mess on the table. But even so, as soon as Hu Jiu entered the door, he smelled the aroma of wine and food.

Scold.

Hu Jiu suddenly sneered, although the people in the dining room have always eaten more and took more oil and water, but they were on duty late at night, and they still dared to drink? I'm not afraid to fall asleep, what's going on in the dining room?

Looking at these little eunuchs coldly, Hu Jiu only wrote it down in his heart, planning to take care of it when he was idle. Anyway, he is also a consular eunuch now. Although it is not his turn to take care of the affairs in the dining room, he can speak.

Hu Jiu pointed to Hu Yu, who was over, and his legs were so weak that he couldn't even walk, and asked, "Do you know her?" ”

One of the little eunuchs said hesitantly: "The little one has a little impression, it seems to be a third-class palace maid." ”

"It's good to know." Hu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, but apparently he was relieved too soon. Because the trip to the dining room was as smooth as before, but the clues were broken at the back.

Hu Jiu unceremoniously asked them to call Eunuch Pang, who was in charge of the kitchen, and after some inquiry, they also found the people who had been on duty for a few days. One of them, when he saw Hu Yu being held up, his face changed.

"What's your name?" Hu Jiu asked.

Although the eunuch's face flashed with melancholy, he still replied respectfully: "The little one is called Huanghai, and everyone calls it Xiao Xiaohaizi on weekdays." ”

Hu Jiu raised his eyebrows, motioned him to look at the lake rain on the side, and asked, "Do you know her?" ”

"Small realization." Huang Hai replied directly: "People who often come to the dining room to eat, even if they don't know their names, can recognize them." ”

Hu Jiu was more direct, curling the corners of his mouth and asking, "Why did your face change after you saw her just now?" ”

This time, Huang Hai's tone hesitated a little, and said, "The little one thinks that this one has probably committed something." ”

"It's as simple as that?" Hu Jiu didn't believe it at all.

After some interrogation, this Huang Hai really knew the inside story. It turned out that Hu Yu thought that no one was paying attention that day, and when he came to the dining room with the cloth, he was seen by the Yellow Sea.

At that time, Huang Hai thought that Hu Yu was giving away with a cloth, and he snickered in his heart, guessing who would be Hu Yu's good friend in the dining room. Because of my curiosity, I paid a little more attention to it later.

Although he didn't see Huyu throw the cloth into the swill bucket, he saw that her hands were empty when she left, and then he began to look at whose hands the cloth had fallen into.

It was all the more strange that he turned around and found that no one had received the cloth. He assumed that someone had taken the cloth and hid it, and looked around in the dining room.

At this glance, I noticed the swill bucket, and the reason was that there were a few bubbles bulging in the swill bucket. Then he stirred it with a stick, and picked up a cloth that was not like a word that had been soaked in oil and water.

Huang Hai said a little uncomfortably: "Of course, I was just a little curious, so I took out the fabric and threw it outside, planning to go back and ask her again." ”

"If you don't want it, can you give it to me?"

Hu Jiu looked at Huang Hai's eyes fluttering left and right, and knew that what he said was not the truth. Would the person on duty in the dining room look at the same cloth as it was destroyed?

He sneered directly, with a smell of blood, and said coldly: "Everyone should know what happened in our palace today." It's the middle of the night, you don't think I'm here to chabu, right? ”

"Take it away!"

Huang Hai was startled, and he wanted to howl when he opened his mouth, but Hu Jiu was already impatient, and with a direct wave of his hand, someone covered Huang Hai's mouth and dragged him out.

Hu Jiu turned around and smiled at Eunuch Pang, who had been present, and said, "I am investigating the case on the orders of my master, Master Pang doesn't mind in my heart, I will take this person away first." ”

"If it's okay, I'll send it back to you."

Eunuch Pang knew the severity and was not angry, patted his stomach, and sighed: "Naturally I don't mind, this matter should be investigated as soon as possible, otherwise don't say that the master is not restless, and we will not sleep well." ”

Hu Jiu smiled with satisfaction.

Huang Hai was a soft bone, and as soon as the whip came out, his face turned pale with fright, and his legs trembled. After a few whips, he peed his pants and trembled.

"Have you figured out how to tell the truth?" Hu Jiu stood in front of him and asked slowly.

The gagged Huang Haitou nodded straight.

“...... I say. After removing the gag cloth, Huang Hai gasped and said: "I have bad intentions and have thoughts about that girl in Huyu, but any girl who is a little angry will not look down on a little eunuch like me." ”

"When I saw the cloth in the swill bucket, I felt that there was something strange in it, so I fished it out and washed it with great effort, and then planned to take it to the lake rain after it was dry."

"If there is really something inside, then I can threaten her with this and force her to marry me."

The sneer on Hu Jiu's face stiffened.

It's really enough, these eunuchs are one by two, and their love lives are richer than his. Listening to Huang Hai's words, he suddenly felt that he was not as good as he was.

"What about the cloth?" Hu Jiu's eyes became more and more vicious.

“..... Lost? Huang Hai felt the wetness of his pants and said with a look of humiliation.

"Lost?" Hu Jiu became irritable for a moment when he heard this, snatched the whip and whipped it a few times, and scolded angrily: "Fucking Lao Tzu has been busy until now, but you told me that you lost it?" ”

"It's a real loss!" Huang Hai shouted bitterly: "The cloth is dyed with oil and it is difficult to wash, I soaked and rubbed it to make a appearance, and then quietly found a place where no one went and dried the cloth." ”

"When I went to look at it again, the cloth was gone."

Now the clue is broken.

Hu Jiu angrily whipped a few more times before turning around and leaving this temporary torture room with hatred. He stood at the doorway, looking up at the moon that had already set to the west, with a melancholy expression.

The imperial concubine has instructed, if you find something, you must return immediately, and now there is a bloody dress of unknown origin, does it count?

Slowly came to the door of the house where Mama Qi and the three of them were closed, and after Hu Jiu stood for a while, he suddenly opened the door and called out the people who were guarding inside.

"You all go back, I've already checked, and these three people are probably fine. But it's better to be locked up overnight and try it again tomorrow. ”

Although the eunuch didn't know why, he nodded and retreated. Seeing that the people were gone, Hu Jiu personally locked the door, looked left and right, and then turned over and swept onto the roof.

Of the three people in the house, Mama Qi exhaled even a sigh, but she had to curl up on the chair and fall asleep.
