Chapter Twenty-Six: Xiuying
Chapter Twenty-Six: Xiuying
Gu Qinghuan didn't really want to buy any perfume.
"Zhang Gongzi."
Zhang Tingyu saw that Yinzhen's matter was almost settled, and he was about to leave. Just crossed the threshold and was about to keep up with Yinzhen, but was suddenly stopped by the person behind him.
"Miss Gu."
Zhang Tingyu smiled very politely.
"Gongzi Zhang doesn't have to call me a girl so politely, I'm just a slave, just call me Qinghuan."
Gu Qinghuan was also down-to-earth and generous, took out a knot from his sleeve, and said, "After thinking about it, there is nothing to repay the son, so I tied a knot." β
Zhang Tingyu looked down and found that it was a knot hanging a jade pendant.
The knot style is ordinary, and it is the kind commonly used by men. Such things are sold on the roadside.
"The knot is ordinary." Gu Qinghuan explained: "It's just that the slave maid doesn't have any special skills, so the embroidery is not bad." It is inconvenient to send personal items such as sachets and purses, so they tie knots. β
Embroidery is different for everyone. Gu Qinghuan embroiders well, and careful people can detect it from the stitches.
Purse sachets often contain special meanings, and she is still careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.
"Thank you."
Zhang Tingyu didn't twist it at all, and after taking the knot, he said, "Miss Qinghuan, you don't have to be so polite. Tingyu small character Hengchen, you can call me Hengchen in the future. β
"Yes, Brother Hengchen."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and then they left the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion one after another.
When Gu Qinghuan returned to the carriage, Ah Shuang had already fallen asleep on the side.
She was frightened and hungry again. After eating something and drinking the soothing soup, sleepiness hit, so I simply squinted.
"Huh?"
There was movement on the side, and when Ah Shuang opened her eyes, she found that it was Gu Qinghuan, and she suddenly woke up for three minutes, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" β
"I don't know yet."
Gu Qinghuan shook his head and said, "We bought the fragrance dew, let's hurry back to the palace." β
If it's really Suiyuan...
Gu Qinghuan remembered the smiling face, and his heart sank.
"Hmm." Ah Shuang didn't think about it so much, and grabbed Gu Qinghuan's hand hard.
β¦
Agori.
Yinzhen instructed Su Peisheng to put the two people tied into the palace into the firewood room, and immediately ordered Su Peisheng to find Xiuying from the Huanyi Bureau.
When Aunt Yuehua heard the news, Yinzhen told the story of what happened outside the palace.
"Suiyuan is a thoughtful person, I have known this for a long time. It's just..."Aunt Yuehua's tone paused, and said, "I never thought that she was so capable. β
So many people inside and outside the palace can be mobilized, it's really amazing!
"yes."
Yin Zhen also nodded and asked, "Where is she at the moment?" β
"It's still in my house." Aunt Yuehua said: "I have dried some herbs in the past few days, saying that I will make some facial dressings for me to use." β
"Hmm." Yin Zhen bowed his head and said: "Mama Zhuang, keep an eye on it, don't let her notice anything unusual." β
"The slave understands."
When Gu Qinghuan was carrying Xianglu back to Brother's office, he happened to see a team of people hurrying back to Brother's office.
Walking in front is Su Peisheng.
"Father-in-law Su?" Gu Qinghuan shouted, and Su Peisheng immediately turned his head to look at Gu Qinghuan. His expression was solemn, and his brows were about to frown.
"Something happened again?"
Gu Qinghuan's heart sank suddenly, and he subconsciously asked, "Yaqi, she..."
Could it be that Sui Yuan took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the palace and attacked Yaqi?
"No, no, no." Su Peisheng hurriedly shook his head and said, "Yes... Something happened to Xiuying! β
After Yinzhen and Su Peisheng returned to the palace, Su Peisheng almost immediately took people to the Huanyi Bureau.
Xiuying was also an authority at the beginning, and she might be able to know some information.
However...
Su Peisheng's talent had just arrived at the Huanyi Bureau, and he saw that the Huanyi Bureau was busy. Say yes... From the well, a round of female corpses was fished out!
Immediately, Su Peisheng knew that something was wrong. hurriedly went over to take a look, only to find that it was really Xiuying.
They were swollen and looked dead for days.
"This..."
Gu Qinghuan took two steps back, and couldn't help but gasp.
They were still a step too late.
Xiuying.
Another innocent life.
"Let's go back to life quickly!" Gu Qinghuan said, and hurriedly followed Su Peisheng back and went to Yinzhen.
Yin Zhen was sitting and drinking tea, and he was talking to Aunt Yuehua about things.
Su Peisheng's face was also solemn, and as soon as he entered, he knelt on the ground and told the story again.
ββ¦β
Yinzhen and Aunt Yuehua glanced at each other and fell silent.
There are a lot of palace maids in the Huanyi Bureau, and occasionally there will be lazy palace maids. Sometimes one or two people disappear without a trace and don't attract much attention.
What's more, Xiuying didn't go long ago, and no one she knew knew was missing.
It dragged on for a few days, and it wasn't until today that someone smelled the smell coming from the well that they knew that the person was gone.
"Bastard!"
Yin Zhen was so angry that he clenched his hands into fists and said, "This palace has been stirred up like this!" β
In the past, when his emperor was still alive, how could he ever be like this?
These pickled things are really disgusting.
"Fourth elder brother is angry."
Su Peisheng's eyes moved, he thought about it and said, "Although we don't have enough evidence now. But... The suspicion of the Suiyuan girl is the greatest. It's better to..."
It's just a palace maid, and it's nothing to dispose of.
Over the years in the palace, are there still fewer palace maids who have disappeared for no reason?
"No way!"
Yinzhen categorically refused.
"This matter is in the Chengqian Palace, if it is handled so unclearly, what will it look like if it is spread out? If this matter is really Suiyuan's doing, Brother Ben must deal with it seriously to set an example! β
The woman who is a little similar to Suiyuan doesn't know what she's doing.
These people, he will not indulge lightly.
"Right now..."
Aunt Yuehua looked at Yin Zhen angrily, so she persuaded: "The evidence is not enough at the moment, it is better to start the investigation from the situation in Suiyuan's house." I remember..."
Before Aunt Yuehua could finish speaking, a eunuch's shouting voice suddenly came from outside.
"Concubine De is hereβ"
As soon as these words fell, everyone in the room was stunned.
Concubine De... How did it come?
PS: Good night~
Let's talk about the setting of Concubine De here, and I won't put it in the text to talk to you.
From the fact that Yinzhen moved to the Elder Brother Institute before, Concubine Tong came to see Yinzhen, but Concubine De only cared about her youngest son, and she could know that Concubine Dezhen was not very concerned about Yinzhen at present.
Maybe it's because Yinzhen has been raised under the knee of Queen Xiaoyi since he was a child, and he calls others Eniang. And Empress Xiaoyi and Concubine De are neighbors, so Concubine De will inevitably react in her heart.
Therefore, now that Concubine De is coming, everyone will be surprised. In the eyes of others, the relationship between Yinzhen and Concubine De is similar to that of strangers.
