"Niangniang, why did you give birth to a young master and go to the concubine Niangniang?"

The prince went to see the concubine, and the second uncle listened to Yang Gongchun.

He didn't take it seriously at the time, but the more he thought about it when he returned to the stove room, the more wrong it became, because it was well known that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the concubine Niangniang were not in harmony, and the two almost never met unless necessary. Didn't the outside say that the thief Zhang Cha was instructed by the noble concubine to kill the master?

happened to see Xi Li Niangniang, and the second uncle said this confusion.

In this East Palace, it is true that Xi Li Niangniang and his mother treat his second uncle very well.

Other people are good to the second uncle, and they all go for the silver in the second uncle's pocket, and the second uncle also knows this, but his old man is arrogant by nature, and he regards money as dung, and he also likes to touch cards and drink, so he is at ease.

"How do I know about the master, and I don't dare to ask."

Xi Li smiled and asked the palace people to take his daughter outside to play, and then said to the second uncle: "The master has ordered, I want to mention you to listen to things, did the prince tell you about this?" ”

"Ah, listen?"

The second uncle was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't believe his ears.

Listening to things is the duty of the palace from the eighth grade, although it is still a petty official who is not in the stream, but compared to the fireman, the handkerchief, and the ebony card, it is the difference between the upper and lower people.

It can be said that the second uncle can be obedient, and for his old man, that is the real place to get ahead, after all, he has been in the palace for almost thirty years, and the second uncle has always been a fireman.

"Look at the people who make you happy, you are stupid, no wonder people call you a big fool." Li Niangniang smiled and picked up the unfinished handkerchief and embroidered it with a needle.

On the Pa is a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water.

"The old slave is illiterate, how can he be obedient..."

The second uncle's heart was pounding, and he was also puzzled, because there is a prerequisite for the palace to be a high-grade position, that is, he must be able to read and write.

And his old man was illiterate.

"What's wrong with being illiterate? As for your credit for catching the thief and protecting the master, don't say it's too much to hear, even if you give you a seven-grade job. ”

Xi Li looked embarrassed and afraid, "Do you know, I heard that there were thieves in the palace at that time, and my brother and I were scared to death." ”

When the second uncle heard this, he hurriedly straightened his waist and grinned: "Niangniang, with me Wei Zhongxian, which thief dares to harm Niangniang and my school brother!" As far as the old slave is concerned, don't say that there is one thief, even if there are ten more, the old slaves will beat them up! ”

After saying that, the back injury he suffered from the fight with the thief that day was brought out, and the old man bared his teeth in pain.

The second uncle amused Xi Li like this, and said casually: "It's not a family, if you don't enter a family, you and your nephew are so good at bragging." ”

"My nephew?"

The second uncle was stunned for a moment, and laughed Hanhan, "No, my nephew really looks like me." ”

Xi Li suddenly stopped the needlework at hand and asked the second uncle: "Does your nephew have a letter to you recently?" I heard that he was locked up in the East Factory, which was quite scary. ”

"What? My nephew called Guan to the East Factory? I didn't know yesterday! Mother, what's going on, my nephew has an accident? The second uncle was shocked and anxious.

"It's okay, don't worry..."

Seeing that the second uncle didn't know about this, Xi Li hurriedly comforted him and said that the matter had already ended, and his nephew had already been released.

"That's good, that's good, hey, it's probably Yang Lian's dog thief who hurt my nephew..."

The second uncle was angry, and his old man already thought that Yang Lian's dog thief was a big traitor. The next time, if you ask him to bump into this dog thief, you can't hit him with a spoon, you have to chop him with a kitchen knife.

Xi Li also wanted to ask the second uncle if his nephew had a family letter, but the young master came over. She hurriedly asked the second uncle to go down first, and welcomed the young master into the palace.

........

"Where's your child?"

Zhu Changluo came with his eldest companion Wang An, and when he saw that his daughter Zhu Huiyuan was not there, he asked where Xi Li went.

"I'm out there."

Xi Li said that he was about to ask the palace people to bring his daughter back, Zhu Changluo waved his hand and said let his daughter play. He sat down with a solemn expression, looking obviously troubled.

"Your Highness is not happy to go, how can you go?" Xi Li sat next to her husband, and she was quite curious about her husband going to see the concubine.

Zhu Changluo moved his fat body, he has become more and more fat over the past year, so that every time he comes to Chenhua Palace, he always has to let Xi Li be on the top, and he is below, otherwise he will be tired and out of breath after a few strokes.

"Let's sit down, too."

Zhu Changluo raised his hand slightly, but Wang An didn't sit down, but only said to Xi Li: "It's not okay if the master doesn't go, otherwise the people outside who don't know really think that His Royal Highness framed the concubine." ”

"The prince is talking about the thief who made the assassination?" Xi Li was a little surprised, she had always been shrewd and understood her husband's intention to go to see the concubine, but after hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but say, "But isn't it more suspicious that the young master is going this time?" ”

Wang An smiled bitterly, he had already mentioned this consequence to the master, but the master couldn't help but go. There is no way to choose the lesser of the two powers. If you don't go, how can you get the debt that the master doesn't pay.

"Okay, I'll go, I'll go too, I'll tell my father about it, so be it."

Zhu Changluo was quite depressed, feeling that he had never been so cowardly in his life, even if he was bullied by the little eunuchs when he was studying, he was not as shameful as he is today.

The dignified prince was forced by the creditor to do something against his will, which is a strange thing in the world.

That Wei Liangchen is not a good thing, when I ascend the throne, I will send him to Fengyang to guard the tomb!

Zhu Changluo secretly swore that he might pay back the money he owed to others, but he was determined not to pay back the money of the slave.

Zhu Changluo also hates his sister Shou Ning, but Shou Ning is his own sister after all, and she is Concubine Zheng's daughter, so it is understandable to help her mother calculate her brother. He, who is an elder brother, can forgive her, but Diao Nu surnamed Wei must be punished, and if he is not killed, he Zhu Changluo will be merciful.

"Master is not going to pursue it?" Xi Li asked from the side.

Zhu Changluo sighed and said, "How to investigate?" My father has always been partial to the concubine, and he protects her in everything, this is the case in the country, two demon book cases, and one demon rebellion case, do I really want to implicate her? ”

Xi Li was silent after hearing this.

Wang An said on the side: "The reconciliation of the two palaces is also a good thing for the master." ”

Zhu Changluo asked him, "Big Companion, what should I do next?" ”

Wang Andao: "When His Royal Highness entered the palace before, the old slave bumped into the school brother teacher Sun Chengzong on the road, and mentioned this case, he said that it was about the East Palace, and he had to ask; But even the concubine, don't ask deeply... The old slave thought about it, why not draft a "Message from the East Palace" on behalf of His Royal Highness, and also said that this was a madman who strayed into the East Palace... Most of the rumors in the outside world are untrue, and it is up to His Majesty to decide how to deal with the case. ”

"Then there's Lao Daban, and... Tell the outside to stop making trouble. ”

Zhu Changluo waved his hand weakly, and everyone else bowed their heads to Concubine Zheng, and promised in front of his father that he would not talk about this case again, and he would not let this case continue to make trouble.

Soon, Wanli saw the edict issued by the East Palace, he was very satisfied, and ordered the prince to reward him with a few thousand taels of silver.

It's just that not everyone is willing to accept the prince's message.
