Ning Yuanhou tried his best to get no news of Ling Yixuan's conversation with the king, and he was always uneasy, not sure if Ling Yixuan knew anything, and he was not sure what the king would do with him. But after a few days in a row, this matter was not advanced, no one pursued it, as if it had never happened at all, although he had doubts, he put his heart back in his stomach, and when he looked back, the Ling family had no power, no power, and no evidence, and they couldn't do anything with him, so they were even more fearless, just thinking that they could wait for another time to pull out the thorn coefficient in their eyes.

Five days after the assassination of Yunmengjian outing, Rong Huatai finally came with the news, and Mrs. Rong sent someone to send a message to Ling Qingyu, saying that the palace had been taken care of, and she could go to Liyantai to investigate. Ling Qingyu was naturally very happy, she could finally start investigating the cause of Mrs. Hualing's death back then, and with Zhongsun Limo not returning to Xuandu, she could go to meet that Aunt Hui openly.

Mrs. Rong does have more brains than the queen, just take over the matter of leaving the funeral platform, Mrs. Rong has done a very beautiful job, taking advantage of the good mood of King Tianxuan, saying that there are so many rights and wrongs recently, he wants to do something good for the king to accumulate more merits, and asks the king to let him take stock of the people in the palace, and let the old palace people and concubines who have made minor mistakes go home, King Tianxuan feels that Mrs. Rong is very pot-bellied and kind, so he naturally agreed.

In this way, Mrs. Rong can take stock in the name of the king and confirm that she can release the palace people, not only has a sufficient reason to take over the funeral platform, but also grasps the power of all the concubines who have committed crimes in the funeral platform to leave the palace, and is not afraid of not being able to inquire about useful news, and this move will most likely only make the queen think that it is a means for Mrs. Rong to wantonly curry favor with the king, and it should not be thought that they are investigating the affairs of Mrs. Hualing back then.

After Ling Qingyu entered the palace, he first played chess with Gongzi Qi in Ronghuatai for an hour, and then accompanied Mrs. Rong to Liwutai.

"Qingqing, we have been uneasy recently, I want to be inseparable from the party of Marquis Ning Yuan, no matter how much the queen targets me, the prestige of erecting respect and debasement cannot change the fact that the prince is unscrupulous, now that Chen Tang has joined forces, Mrs. Chen has made it clear that the Chen family will support Gongzi Qi, as long as the Wang family nods, Marquis Ning Yuan will definitely be unable to return to the sky." After a few days of recuperation, Mrs. Rong's spirit was slightly better, but her face was still a little haggard, thinking of the queen's intentional targeting, and the merciless punishment was really hateful.

"It's okay, it's all grasshoppers after the autumn and can't be bounced for a few days, why should Mrs. be angry about this matter anymore, are she afraid that she won't be able to recover this debt after she becomes a waste in the future." Ling Qingyu said with relief, although she didn't know what her father and King Tianxuan said, but she was sure that her father and King Tianxuan had exchanged some conditions and reached some consensus, and her father said that she should let go and investigate the matter of Mrs. Hualing, and he would look at the matter of changing the crown prince with Prime Minister Tang Cheng, so there was no need for her to interfere.

Away from the funeral platform in the westernmost part of the palace wall, if you go out of the palace wall to the west is the forest of hunting in the western suburbs of Xuandu, along the way, the palace people are gradually reduced, except for the forbidden army guards on duty to patrol routinely can hardly see other people, even in this summer day, the wind in the laneway blows the dust and smoke that no one cleans also makes people feel an inexplicable chill, deep into the flesh and bones.

When passing by the Jade Soul Terrace, Ling Qingyu subconsciously looked up, thinking of Zhongsun Limo, he seemed to be coming back soon after he had been away for many days, his evil and crazy appearance appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth when he remembered the night he was drunk, not paying attention to the fact that she began to remember a person, a person who had nothing to do with the overall situation of the world.

"Madam, Rong Huatai has arrived, get away!" The head of Rong Huatai, Gong E, stopped her shoulders and helped Mrs. Rong down, and the palace maid who left the funeral platform had already gotten the news, opened the palace door, and found the faded red brocade from nowhere to pave the main road, and the old palace maid who came from the funeral platform with a slap that could be counted was waiting by the door.

The lady in charge of the palace beside Mrs. Rong really didn't like this, and said uneasily: "Madam, this place is too yin and unlucky, so don't go in." ”

Mrs. Rong looked at the broken door, the mottled wall paint, and the cold air faintly revealing from the crack in the door, and couldn't help rubbing her arms, and she was indeed a little worried in her heart, but this time she used the name of rectifying the funeral platform, how could she not go in, besides, she responded to Ling Qingyu in person, and now she couldn't say anything about retreating, and hurriedly scolded: "What are you panicking about!" Mrs. Ben was born with a precious life, so what is there to fear. ”

Ling Qingyu naturally knew that Mrs. Rong's lust was fierce, and hurriedly flattered her and said: "Madam is born with a phoenix life, so there is no need to worry, and then you came here to benefit all the people here, and it is also considered a merit, and if you accumulate good fortune, you may be able to resolve some of the grievances in it." ”

Mrs. Rong pursed her lips and smiled, she felt much more comfortable when Ling Qingyu said this, so she walked in with her affectionately, and the two stepped on the red brocade and entered the hall of the main hall of the funeral platform, and they didn't see half a figure.

Mrs. Rong and Ling Qingyu sat down and said strangely, "What about the other people who left the funeral platform?" Why didn't you see it? ”

"Mrs. Qiqi, there are many evil and crazy people in this funeral platform, and the old slave is afraid that those people will shock Madame, so he takes it upon himself to take charge and temporarily lock them all in the side hall." The person in charge of the palace who left the funeral platform was called Gui Qiu, who was very strong, and when he heard Mrs. Rong's question, he hurriedly stepped forward and smiled flatteringly, the fat on his face was really not good-looking, and when he saw her like this, he knew that the food and clothing allocated to the funeral platform on weekdays were basically on her.

Mrs. Rong sighed lightly, and continued: "Why I came here, I think you must be clear, you bring this personnel book from the funeral platform, and I will see who can be released from the palace and go home, so as not to suffer in this cold palace." ”

After Gui Qiu left, Madam Rong said to Ling Qing: "That person will come over with a personnel booklet in a while, if you want to know anything, just ask, here I have taken care of the inside and outside, and there will be no words that will be passed on to the queen, nor will it arouse half suspicion." ”

Ling Qingyu felt that this Mrs. Rong was doing things very properly, no wonder she was able to climb to this position and be pampered for many years, and when Guiqiu came up to the palace again, Ling Qingyu said: "How many people live in this Litai, and when and why they moved in, you can tell us to listen." ”

"Yes, the slave will report it." Gui Qiu opened the booklet when he heard the command and read it casually.

But Ling Qingyu felt that it was wrong, that Guiqiu was still reading smoothly at the beginning, and the more he got to the back, the more he stumbled, this is not just a matter of reading, why would he look at the bamboo slip booklet and still stumble, but it was more like he was memorizing, or the kind that was very rusty in his memory, and hurriedly interrupted: "Stop, just follow the recitation Why are you so stumbling, could it be that you can't read at all!" ”

According to the general rules of the inner palace, ordinary palace people can be illiterate, but the presiding palace people must master the necessary writing and ink in order to receive the degree of each palace and publish the routine matters of each palace. (To be continued.) )
