"How much is it to die a lot?" Fu Yuanling asked.

"There have been twenty or thirty in the past six months, and there was no such number in the palace in the past year." Xue Ningshuang has been in the palace and knows some secrets in the palace.

Some concubines in the palace like to raise cats and dogs, but they don't necessarily like these little things, they are just angry objects.

But generally speaking, they don't dare to go too far, and most of them will let the little things take a breath and live.

It's really rare for twenty or thirty animals to die in half a year, so Zhang Chengcai felt that something was wrong.

Fu Yuanling always felt that since the beginning of the spring and the establishment of the prince, there have been more and more strange things, just like this cat and dog matter, who would care about this before.

But now that it suddenly appeared, Fu Yuanling's heart was a little hairy.

I can't tell you how it feels, but I'm upset.

Xue Ningshuang definitely didn't say this to herself on a whim, Fu Yuanling looked at her, "Zhang Cheng asked you to give me a message, did you ask for something?" ”

Xue Ningshuang knew that the princess would definitely be able to guess, so she said solemnly: "Yes, the slave maid came out of the palace, and after arriving at the palace, Princess Domeng gave the slave and maid a chance, so that the slave and maid can have today." Although you said that you don't need me to call myself a slave anymore, in the heart of the slave and maid, you will always be my master. ”

Fu Yuanling chuckled, "It doesn't have to be like this, what are your plans with Zhang Cheng?" ”

Zhang Cheng is a rootless person, they will naturally have no children in the future, and those who have no children will be out of the house, and now the two of them are young and strong, and when they are older, they will become the object of bullying and oppression by others.

Fu Yuanling could already guess what Zhang Cheng wanted, she glanced at Xue Ningshuang again, although Zhang Cheng had physical shortcomings, but it was really good for her.

"Zhang Chengcheng wants to stay in the palace for a few more years, and when he arrives in the future, he will return home." Xue Ningshuang hesitated to speak, in the final analysis, their husband and wife still wanted to get the protection of the palace.

Fu Yuanling understood that Zhang Cheng was on the side of the King of Chu, and that day in the future would mean after the new monarch ascended the throne, and before that, Zhang Cheng would become their secret stake in the palace.

It's really out of the way, you must know that Zhang Cheng has been safe in the palace for so many years, just because he is alone.

Fu Yuanling nodded, "You tell Zhang Cheng and say that I agreed." ”

Xue Ningshuang sighed lightly, "Thank you, princess." After speaking, without waiting for the princess to continue to ask, she carefully explained the matter carefully.

Raising cats and dogs in the palace must be recorded, and the life of the cat and dog must be recorded clearly.

Speaking of which, the cat and dog room is actually not valued in the palace, it is basically a place for the elderly, very leisurely, Zhang Cheng can find such a place with some status and can be good alone, which shows how powerful he is.

The cats and dogs in the cat and dog room are also graded, and the best bloodline breed is naturally prepared by the masters of each palace, but there are also some cats and dogs that are not so outstanding, and these will be taken away and raised by palace people with some status in the palace.

There are also some cats and dogs are the lowest, whether it is the appearance or the bloodline is the lowest, such cats and dogs are not willing to raise the palace, many times most of these cats and dogs are to wait in the cat and dog room to be assigned to the remote palace room to catch mice.

And these cats and dogs are also the most messy, and the records in the booklet will not be so rigorous. Because of the large place in the palace, there are very few beauties in the harem of the saint today compared to the front of the palace, so many palaces are empty.

The number of these cats and dogs is not enough to allocate one or two to each palace, so in most cases, these cats and dogs are often here today, and tomorrow they are borrowed elsewhere.

For such a situation, it will not be recorded every time, so this batch of cats and dogs is the most chaotic.

And now all the dead cats and dogs are from this batch, Zhang Cheng only found out when he read the summary of the semi-annual book records, and he was suddenly shocked to sweat.

faintly felt that something was going to happen, but he didn't dare to check or ask, so he could only pretend to be blind in the palace to save his life.

Now that he is going to marry a daughter-in-law, he can't just think about himself, so he gritted his teeth and decided to take refuge in King Jin.

After listening to Xue Ningshuang's words, Fu Yuanling asked carefully: "How did these cats and dogs die?" ”

"Those who died of illness were almost the same, they were all gradually weakened, and when they died, they became skinny and skinny, so no one cared about them at first." Xue Ningshuang sighed, "Everyone dies of illness, let alone these little things." ”

"It's all a symptom of illness and death? If so, how could no one find out? Fu Yuanling felt even more strange.

Xue Ningshuang said: "Princess, you haven't been in the palace, and you don't know that some places in the palace are dark and don't see the light of day. Don't talk about these little things, even if a palace person dies of illness, he will only take a mat and throw it to the mass grave, and then the word "death" will only be added to the list. ”

People won't care, let alone cats and dogs, if it weren't for Zhang Cheng's careful discovery that things were unusual, anyone who was careless would not think it was a big deal.

Today's harem is considered Qingming under the governance of the queen's mother, and there are very few palace people who die for no reason in the palace every year.

Speaking of this, Xue Ningshuang looked at Fu Yuanling and whispered: "Zhang Cheng feels very strange at this time, another dog died in the palace yesterday, but he didn't dare to find someone to see how he died, so he wanted to ask the princess if she wanted this dog." ”

Fu Yuanling: ......

Well, a daring one!

"Yes!" Fu Yuanling said categorically that Zhang Cheng did not dare to let people investigate the cause of death because he was afraid that this matter was really man-made, and if someone found out what he had done, he was only afraid of getting into trouble.

But if a dead dog is quietly sent outside the palace, and then checked by King Jin's mansion, it will naturally not be noticed.

Xue Ningshuang said: "Ming'er will be sent to the palace early in the morning." ”

These things are transported out of the palace in the middle of the night, and dead things cannot alarm the living and commit taboos.

So if you send it out of the palace in the middle of the night, you can stop it and transfer it to King Jin's Mansion as long as you do a little trickery.

"I asked people to wait outside the palace." Fu Yuanling let out a long breath and looked at Xue Ningshuang, "You let Zhang Cheng protect himself, and be sure to investigate the movements in the palace as much as possible without alarming others as before." ”

Weak and dead cats and dogs, Fu Yuanling always couldn't help but think of the persecution that the prince was subjected to when he was born.

The queen is gone, so after no one suppresses it, is this harem going to be a group of demons dancing again?

And who did it when the prince was born weak?

This matter has not been conclusive, and now that this phenomenon has suddenly appeared in the palace, it is impossible for Fu Yuanling not to be afraid.
