Chapter Twenty-Three: Save Xiao Yuezi
After a spring rain, the cuttlefish spent two days in a row, staying in her Chengxi Hall except for napping and sleeping, that is, eating and drinking, no one came to disturb again, nor did there be any outing, and the small life can be called a moist and leisurely.
The size of Changchun Palace is not much, with Ruyi's careful arrangement, cuttlefish does not need to worry too much, she can put all her energy and thoughts on her own private affairs.
At this time, the cuttlefish, holding the hot minced meat cake, sat cross-legged at will, while chewing the cake, while slapping his thigh and sighing that this is a peerless delicacy, he is very happy to eat. I have to say that Xiao Anzi's craftsmanship in the dining room is good, making this minced meat cake charred on the outside and crispy on the inside, the minced meat is oily, salty and sweet, the taste is thick and mellow, and the color is bright, which has a unique flavor.
Of course, food is the love of cuttlefish, but this is not the reason why she lives the life of a master with a false identity, these days, she has not forgotten the promise she made to Su Promise for a moment, and always wants to secretly find out the real culprit behind the murder of Su Promise.
If the killer is really found, what should be done with it?
For this problem, the cuttlefish has not come up with a specific method, and it can't just watch it get away with it, but it may not have the ability to correct it on the spot, asking for a life to pay for a life, so when the time comes, it can only take one step at a time.
The top priority at the moment is to keep an eye on Gu Changzai, if she is the murderer, she must find out conclusive evidence, but in case she is not the villain who harmed her master, she must also find proof to rule out her suspicion, and she must be justified and well-founded. We can't wronged anyone lightly, and we must not let the real murderer get away with it.
"Master, master, something happened, something is wrong!" It was Xiao Anzi's voice, before he saw him, he heard his voice first, he was so anxious that he must have important news to report.
The cuttlefish wiped the rice stains on the corner of his mouth, and his expression unconsciously became strict, the comfortable days are almost over, and it is time to get ready to do business.
Xiao Anzi ran all the way wildly, stumbled into the house, and hurriedly spoke as soon as he saw the cuttlefish, "Oh no, master, Xiao Yuezi has an accident, he found out...... No, it was discovered. ”
Hearing this, the cuttlefish's heart moved, and he asked nervously, "What did you find?" Don't worry, say it slowly, what did Xiao Yuezi find? ”
In order to get a deeper understanding of the Gu family, the cuttlefish sent Xiao Anzi and Xiao Yuezi to Zhongcui Palace to investigate the news, Xiao Yuezi once said that he had some friendship with the eunuch on duty in Yiyuan Palace, and it was not good to get all the information about Gu Chang in the near future.
Xiao Anzi shook his head desperately, and explained with a sad face, "No, it was Xiao Yuezi who was discovered, he was caught by Gu Changzai and has been tied up." ”
The cuttlefish looked incredulous, his face changed greatly, and he asked in a lost voice, "What did you say?" He was discovered by Gu Changzai and was caught, how could this be, Xiao Yuezi is okay? Tell me something about it. ”
The corners of Xiao Anzi's eyes were a little moist, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, clearly explaining what had just happened, "At that time, Xiao Yuezi asked me to wait for him outside the door, and he entered Zhongcui Palace to find Wang Yuntao to say a few words, but before he could say a few words, he was heard by Gu Changzai's maid Caiyun, and soon ordered someone to tie up Xiao Yuezi, not to say that he had a bad heart and came to harm Gu Changzai." How dare Xiao Yuezi harm his masters, but he can't say that you sent him, for fear of ruining your reputation, he can only be arrested without a hundred words. ”
The cuttlefish bit his lip after hearing this, regretting that he shouldn't have arranged Xiao Yuezi to go on an adventure so hastily, although Xiao Yuezi was just a eunuch who had just come in, but he couldn't directly confess the cuttlefish, and he could be regarded as a loving and righteous person, and he couldn't let him be tortured in the hands of the Gu family in vain.
Xiao Anzi saw that the cuttlefish didn't speak, so he had to choke up and beg, "Master, you let us go and find out about Gu Chang's affairs, and we as slaves naturally didn't dare to ask the reason, so we had to honestly obey the instructions and do as they were told." Xiao Yuezi and I are both responsible people, and when we came to our Changchun Palace, we just wanted to serve the master well and save our own lives. But now Xiao Yuezi didn't do anything wrong, but he was arrested by Gu Changzai because of a misunderstanding, it's really wronged, Gu Changzai is not a good stubble, I'm afraid he won't let him go lightly, please come forward to save him for the sake of Xiao Yuezi's loyalty. ”
How could the cuttlefish not know Gu's ruthlessness, she herself had suffered from it, and of course she didn't want others to be poisoned by Gu again for her. The cuttlefish made up his mind, nodded, and instructed Xiao Anzi, "Get up quickly, what do you look like when you cry?" If you really want Xiao Yuezi to come back safely, don't delay the time, you go and tell Yu Ruyi about this, I will prepare first, and we will save people in a while. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Anzi quickly got up from the ground, wiped away his tears, and went to find Ruyi.
The cuttlefish put on a new set of clothes, tidied up the messy hair, and put on gorgeous hair accessories that are not commonly used.
This trip is to save people, not to ask for people, the cuttlefish does not have any intention of giving in to the Gu family, if it is a last resort, it is inevitable to fight with the Gu family, no matter what, the innocent Xiao Yuezi will be brought back.
With the mentality of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, the cuttlefish came to Zhongcui Palace with Ruyi and Xiao Anzi.
The main seat of Zhong Cui Palace is Ning Concubine Niangniang, and when she comes, she naturally has to say hello to Ning Concubine first, and the cuttlefish has had several contacts with Ning Concubine, and feels that she is not as unreasonable as Gu's, and she can be regarded as decent and good at talking, so she is ready to explain this to Ning Concubine in advance to find help.
Unfortunately, Concubine Ning was not in the palace, and the little hope she had was shattered.
"Master, do you know other people in the Zhongcui Palace, see if you can help with this? With your relationship with Gu Changzai, it's best not to rush to her. Ruyi leaned into the cuttlefish's ear and whispered.
Where will the cuttlefish know others, except for Xiao Chuan, she has no one to rely on in the palace. At this moment, Gu Xiaochuan can't do anything even if he has the heart, how can the Gu family listen to the words of a subordinate? The cuttlefish thought about it and thought about it, and planned to hide this matter from Xiao Chuan, and he couldn't be involved anymore.
The cuttlefish looked at Ruyi helplessly, so he had to give a negative answer.
At this moment, a short and thin figure walked over, chuckling lightly and saluting contrivedly, "Su promised auspiciousness, Su promised Wanfu, my family Gu Changzai didn't invite you kindly, why did you come here by yourself?" ”
