Chapter Seventy-Seven: Sleepless Nights

Things that don't see the light of day have always been done at night.

In the second watch of the night, the cuttlefish has not yet slept, a pair of apricot eyes are brighter than the light, tonight is the day to meet Xiao Anzi, she sits on the couch and waits for Xiao Anzi, hoping to hear some useful news.

After a while, two cat meows sounded outside the window, and the sound of "Mi Mi" made people panic, when did Xianfu Palace have a cat? The cuttlefish looked at Ruyi suspiciously, and just wanted to go out to have a look, but suddenly tapped his head and remembered that this cat call was a secret signal from Shungui! The cuttlefish had told Shungui before, if Xiao Anzi came alone, he would call her twice casually to inform her, who would have thought that Shungui would be able to make such a realistic cat meow......

The cuttlefish coughed twice and motioned for Shungui to bring Xiao Anzi in.

"The slave asks for peace to the master, and the master is blessed with gold."

As soon as Xiao Anzi came in, he happily knelt on the ground to greet the cuttlefish, and he ran all the way, running out of breath, and even gasping for breath when he spoke.

Seeing this, the cuttlefish hurriedly asked, "Get up, it's also troublesome for you to come over at night, tell me quickly, what's going on with Gu Chang over there these days?" What did you stumble upon to find in your eyes? ”

With Xiao Anzi as the internal response, the news of Yiyuan Hall can be more or less passed through, so that the cuttlefish can have a number in his heart.

Xiao Anzi tidied up the messy hem of his clothes twice, and replied busily, "Gu Changzai fell out with Guo Guiren, the two of them didn't even say hello when they met, and they said a lot of bad things about each other behind their backs. ”

Guo and Gu live in the same house, and they don't see anyone when they look up, and the relationship is too stiff, and both of them must be unhappy. But this is not what the cuttlefish cares about, what she wants to know is the secret that the Gu family does not know.

"Looking at your hot appearance, I thought you brought some big news, but it turned out to be just this trivial matter, what do they have to do with me if they have a conflict?" The cuttlefish couldn't help but complain, and his tone couldn't hide his loss.

Xiao Anzi was a little anxious when he heard this, and defended aggrievedly. "Master, don't worry, the minion hasn't finished talking yet, the minion is really a big deal, you will be surprised when you hear it." ”

"Big stuff, big stuff. Also ginger, onions, garlic, too. The cuttlefish rolled his eyes and urged him to say quickly, "Don't sell guanzi in front of me, since it is a big ingredient that is stronger than ginger, onion and garlic, say it quickly." ”

Hear her say that. Ruyi and Shungui, who were standing on the side, couldn't help grinning, Xiao Anzi scratched his head, laughed embarrassedly, and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Xiao Anzi said solemnly, "Once or twice, Guo Guiren scolded in front of us, saying that Gu Changzai's father betrayed the official mantle, and sooner or later he will be found out and punished, not only her father, but even Gu Changzai himself is also doing this transaction in the harem." took the opportunity to collect a lot of money. ”

Gu Changzai's father served as a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and the Servant of the Ministry of Officials was a fat man, and it was not difficult to make some oil and water for private purposes.

Buying and selling officials? This is indeed a felony, the cuttlefish thought thoughtfully for a while, this was good news to bring down Gu Changzai, but because there was no evidence in her hands, just a few nonsense words from Guo Shi could not tell Gu Changzai.

What's more, this matter is related to the previous dynasty, she can't make big waves alone, and the officials always protect each other, and I don't know how many people's interests are involved behind this. She can't act rashly, be careful of digging a big hole for herself.

The cuttlefish picked up the money bag on the table, grabbed some broken silver and gave it to Xiao Anzi, and then commanded. "This is a reward for you, as long as you have the heart to do things for me, I will naturally not treat you badly, you go back first, don't make people suspicious if you come out for so long." ”

I thought that this amazing news would make the cuttlefish happy, but Xiao Anzi looked at her for a long time and didn't see her half happy. Qing XΓΉ couldn't help but fall down, and replied casually, "Don't worry, master, no one will suspect it, anyway, there is not only one slave who comes out at night." ”

He received the reward and muttered, "Before the slave came, I saw that Caiyun had just gone out, and I didn't know what to do. ”

When Xiao Anzi said this, the cuttlefish was still dozing, but in the next second, as soon as she heard Caiyun's name, she immediately came to her senses.

"What, you said Caiyun, she also went out of Zhongcui Palace at night?"

Xiao Anzi replied truthfully, "That's right, the slave really sees it, it's her." ”

The cuttlefish stuffed the money bag on the table into Xiao Anzi's hand, and immediately said, "From now on, you will also help me keep an eye on Caiyun's movements at night, she is always holding back, and it is estimated that she will not be able to do anything good when she goes out at night, you have to keep an eye on her." ”

The heavy money bag was filled with broken silver, which was three times more than the cuttlefish had just rewarded, Xiao Anzi was holding the money bag, and there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart, how could there be any reason not to agree.

He nodded and agreed, "Thank you master, thank you master, the slave will do his best to do this errand for you, you can rest assured." ”

After Xiao Anzi left, Shungui also retreated, and only cuttlefish and Ruyi were left in the house.

The cuttlefish was a little tired, took a cushion and put it on her back, and leaned on it in a comfortable position, she saw Ruyi with a worried look, and asked, "What's wrong with you, I just saw that you were depressed, could it be that you have something on your mind?" ”

"What can the slave and maid have on their minds, as long as the master is happy and peaceful, the slave and maid will be fine, but sometimes it is inevitable that they will be disturbed by irrelevant people and things, and they will be slightly unhappy." Ruyi replied in a low voice, depressed.

Ruyi's strange appearance aroused the curiosity of the cuttlefish, "Irrelevant people and things? Let's hear it, I just can't sleep for a while, so let's talk for a while. ”

I found that the master was interested in Ruyi and regretted her talking, she didn't want to say more, but she couldn't help but say it.

Ruyi hesitated again and again, but still opened his mouth, "The slave maid heard that Shungui said that he had an acquaintance over there in Xinzhiku, so he asked him to inquire about Chunxiang's situation, but he really inquired, but it was ......"

"But what?" The cuttlefish asked anxiously.

She was dying after being caned, and then she had a high fever and was full of nonsense, and when the stewards came to see her again, they found ...... It was found that she was out of breath. ”

Haruka died, just like that, in a dilapidated and dirty low room in Xinzheku, scarred and bloodied, and hastily ended her short and bleak life.

The cuttlefish's eyes widened, clutching the silver hairpin in his hand tightly, and he was speechless in shock. (To be continued.) )
