Sanfu dragged his inconvenient legs and feet, knelt down and said solemnly: "The master is not hypocritical, but compassionate, every drop of blood stained by the master is forced to be helpless, and he has never taken the initiative to harm others." ”

"You don't have to comfort Hongu." Ling Ruo threw the blood-stained handkerchief on the small table and sighed: "Maybe it was like this before, but since this palace used Yingchun to harm the Liu family and her children, this palace has become no different from the queen, cold-blooded and cruel, treating human life like a mustard, such a self is really terrible to think about." ”

As soon as these words came out, Yang Hai and the others all knelt down, and before they could speak, Ling Ruo had already waved his hand and said: "Okay, there is no need to say anything nice to comfort the palace, since it is the path chosen by the palace itself, whether it is right or wrong, it will continue to walk." Not to mention Liu's ...... It is indeed a fierce opponent that should not be underestimated. After that, his eyes fell on Sanfu, "What, can you think of a way to save Yingchun?" ”

Sanfu pondered: "If you want to save people under the queen, you can only go one step ahead of her in everything, once you let her find Yingchun, it will be too late." ”

"This palace also thinks so, do you know where Yingchun will go after leaving the palace?"

Facing Ling Ruo's question, Sanfu frowned and said, "The slave remembers that Yingchun said before that she still has a family living in the capital, and Yingchun alone should go to her family." They seem to live in a place called Stone Hutong, and as for where the Hutong is, the minions don't know what to do. “

"Zhilu Road is a stone alley, and if you ask a family, you will definitely be able to ask where Yingchun's family lives. Without further ado, Yang Hai, you ......" The words suddenly stopped here, making Yang Hai a little confused, and said tentatively: "The master wants the slave to go out of the garden to find Yingchun's family?" ”

"No, you can't go." Ling Ruo's answer surprised several people, if Yang Hai is not allowed to go, then who will go? Water show? She is a woman, and she is definitely not more convenient than Yang Hai, let alone Sanfu.

Or Sanfu guessed Ling Ruo's thoughts first, "Master, do you think Sanfu will attract attention if he goes?" ”

"Yes, the queen wants to avoid suspicion, why doesn't the palace need to avoid suspicion, and boldly let Yang Hai out of the garden, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble." As soon as Ling Ruo's words fell, Shui Yue picked up and said: "The master is too worried, according to the emperor's trust in the master today, even if someone chews his tongue, he is just a villain in vain." ”

Ling Ruo stared at her, slowly evoking a slightly bitter smile, "The emperor's heart is as deep as the sea, the emperor can believe in this palace today, and he can also not believe in this palace tomorrow." As a concubine, one thing you have to remember is not to believe in yourself too much, otherwise you will die sooner or later. ”

Although Shui Yue didn't quite agree, but seeing that Ling Ruo was smiling so bitterly, he didn't dare to say more, Yang Hai took the opportunity to take over the topic and said: "According to the master's words, the slave and Shui Xiu are not suitable for going out of the garden, so who should be handed over to handle this matter." ”

These words stumped Ling Ruo, and his fingernails lightly tapped on the armrest; Yes, the henchmen around me can't be sent, who should be sent, there are so many pairs of eyes staring in the garden, and if one is not good, someone will take advantage of the problem to play. What I am most afraid of is that the person who sent out Lu has two hearts or is not strict in his mouth, so that not only is the person not saved, but he himself has caused a sao.

The room was so quiet that there was only the sound of fingers tapping on the armrest, and the candle flame burned silently in the lampshade, and I don't know how long it took, Sanfu raised his head and said, "Master, the slave remembered something." ”

"Say it, Hongu listen." After that, seeing that Sanfu and the others were still kneeling on the ground, he raised them and said, "What are you doing on your knees, you all get up and talk back." ”

After kneeling for a long time, Sanfu's other leg was also numb and difficult to move, but Yang Hai helped him before he stood up, "Master, do you remember the poisoning of the second elder brother?" ”

Ling Ruo was slightly stunned, and was surprised that Sanfu suddenly mentioned this matter, "Are you saying that the Nian clan instructed Nanqiu to poison the second elder brother's tea, and then framed the palace?" Hongu naturally remembers. ”

The slave knew that in order to wash away the grievances for the mother that day, the fourth elder brother had gone to the imperial pharmacy to look for clues, and was found by the Nian family, and at that time there was a guard surnamed Liu who was punished by the Nian family to the Shen Penal Division for punishment, and then the fourth elder brother also went to see him. Although the slave doesn't know what the relationship between the guard of Lu Dao and the fourth elder brother is, he should be a trustworthy person, and the most important thing is that he does not have too much to do with the master, even with the fourth elder brother. When the minion was still on an errand with the queen's mother, she never let the minion pay attention to this person. Therefore, the slave thought that if he was to do the matter, he should be able to avoid the eyes and ears of many people. ”

Sanfu's words made Ling Ruo's eyes light up, yes, how could she forget Liu Hu, this person was able to help Hongli at that time, it can be seen that he is a loving and righteous person, and he will not betray him. Moreover, the guards do not live in the garden except for being on duty, so it is up to him to find Yingchun, and no one will notice it, and he is really the most suitable person. The only question is whether Liu Hu drove to the Old Summer Palace.

After thinking for a moment, Ling Ruo raised his face and said to Yang Hai: "You go and call Hongli here, just say that the palace has something to ask him." ”

After a while, Hongli came in with Yang Hai, and after a formal salute, he said: "Eniang called her sons to come, but there is something to order?" ”

Ling Ruo nodded, motioned for him to come closer, and then said, "E-Niang remembers that you are quite good with the guard Liu Hu, right?" Do you know if he came to the Old Summer Palace with him this time? ”

Hongli looked at Ling Ruo strangely, not understanding why she suddenly asked Liu Hu, who had become a guard, "Back to Eniang, Liu Hu has come to the garden, and Erchen also saw him patrolling the garden a few days ago. ”

Hearing that Liu Hu was really in the garden, Ling Ruo's spirit was shocked, and he helped Hongli's shoulder and said, "Hongli, Eniang needs the help of Liu Guard, can you help Eniang bring him a letter?" ”

Hongli's expression changed slightly, and he blurted out: "I don't know what Eniang wants Liu to do, although he has a very personal relationship with his son, but there are some things that he may not be willing to do." ”

Although Hongli said very implicitly, Ling Ruo still heard the clue, flicked it on Hongli's forehead, and pretended to be unhappy and said: "What, are you afraid that Eniang will let Liu Guard do something to be a traitor?" ”

Being pierced by Ling Ruo's thoughts, Hongli looked embarrassed, lowered his head and didn't speak, until Ling Ruo's cold voice came into his ears, "Why do you think E-Niang would do these things, do you think E-Niang is a bad person?" ”

"It's not!" Hongli hurriedly shook his head, then pinched the corner of his clothes and muttered: "Erchen doesn't know why Lu Dao said that just now, please don't be surprised." ”

Looking at the son in front of him, who was taller than himself, Ling Ruo's heart was full of indescribable feelings, and gently stroked his face with distinct facial features, "You are the son of this palace, no matter what you say or do, this palace will not blame you." ”
