Chapter IV: Clues

When Gu Qinghuan woke up the next day, he heard a wail outside.

At this moment, the courtiers and women have all knelt in the Chengqian Palace to show their grief.

"Awake?"

Yaqi was still standing on the edge of Gu Qinghuan's bed, and when she saw Gu Qinghuan wake up, she was busy serving tea and water.

Among the three palace maids who were selected into the palace by Aunt Yuehua, Gu Qinghuan and Ussuri Yaqi actually had a faint relationship in the past.

But since...

Last month, Yaqi's family Ama was sick, and after Gu Qinghuan took her own money to subsidize her, she was very grateful to herself.

This time she was so embarrassed that she stayed on the edge of the bed every step of the way.

"You're guarding me like this, and everyone is tired." Gu Qinghuan was a little emotional, and asked, "Is there any news from Yunzhu?" ”

Don't look like it's on TV. Something happened, and he committed suicide, and the clues were cut off.

Yaqi shook her head.

"Yunzhu is just a person who is responsible for delivering meals. She only said that when she came to bring you food, she found you lying motionless and thought you were dead. I was afraid that Queen Daxing would make some noise when she passed away, so I was good at advocating. ”

"I see, although she said this clearly, it is still full of loopholes."

Yaqi thought for a while, and then said: "We come from a slightly poor background, although Aunt Yuehua also said that she would continue to investigate. But I think she's busy like a spinning top, and she may not be able to help us. ”

When Gu Qinghuan heard this, he already understood.

You have to rely on yourself to find out about this.

She herself has been sick since she fell ill more than a month ago, and she may have been victimized. As for whether it's this Yunzhu... But it is also up for debate.

"I'm fine."

Gu Qinghuan thought about it, got up and put on his clothes, and said, "We were also personally selected by our aunt, and it doesn't look like we've been sick all the time, so we should go to the spirit of Queen Daxing to guard it." ”

"You... Is your body okay? Yaqi was worried about Gu Qinghuan's recklessness, and wanted to persuade a few words, but saw the perseverance on Gu Qinghuan's face again.

Yes. The three of them can be picked by Aunt Yuehua, and they are naturally not the ones who fall down as soon as the wind blows.

At the end of the mourning hall, Aunt Yuehua heard that Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi were coming, so she got up and went over to take a look.

"Is your body okay?"

Aunt Yuehua glanced at Gu Qinghuan.

When Zhang Tingyu came back yesterday carrying Gu Qinghuan in the straw mat, her face was pale and bloodless, and Aunt Yuehua was still startled.

"Much better." Gu Qinghuan obeyed and said, "The queen is gone." The slave and maid were uneasy, but they still wanted to come and serve in front of the spirit. Incidentally... Say thank you to the Zhang family. ”

Aunt Yuehua bowed her head and pointed in the direction of Zhang Tingyu for Gu Qinghuan, before she said, "Later, when everyone is gone, let's go again." ”

"Yes." Gu Qinghuan obeyed, and followed everyone to kneel in front of the spirit of Queen Daxing.

Whimpering sounds all around.

Gu Qinghuan listened to these cries, remembering the scene of watching her mother die in front of the hospital bed at that time, and tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.

Aunt Yuehua quietly saw all this in her eyes, and was a little more satisfied with Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi.

The day's wailing was finally over, and most of the people were hoarse and wanted to leave.

Gu Qinghuan finally found an opportunity and came to Zhang Tingyu.

Zhang Tingyu's knees were sore, and he supported Ama on his side, and was about to leave.

"Zhang Gongzi stays."

Gu Qinghuan shouted, and Zhang Tingyu's father and son turned around in unison.

Zhang Tingyu recognized Gu Qinghuan at a glance, whispered something to Ama beside him, and walked over.

"Is that you? Are you alright? Those minions are abominable! It should be punished severely. ”

"I'm fine." Gu Qinghuan said: "Thank you Gongzi Zhang for saving the slave." The slave and maid have nothing to repay, and they will definitely find an opportunity to repay you in the future. ”

Zhang Tingyu hurriedly waved his hand to say no, and then asked, "What happened to the minions who killed you?" ”

"Father-in-law?" Gu Qinghuan said: "The little Chunzi under his hand said that he received people's silver, thinking that I was dead, so he had to send it out of the palace." ”

"But the man who thought I was dead only found me lying motionless on the bed in the morning when he delivered the meal, and he didn't reveal anything else."

“…”

When Zhang Tingyu heard this, he really couldn't make any judgments, and after thinking about it, he could only say: "With Aunt Yuehua here, she will definitely give an explanation." You still have to take care of your body first. ”

Gu Qinghuan bowed, asked Zhang Tingyu a few more details about that day, and then turned around and left.

What Zhang Tingyu said is no different from what Yaqi told herself. It seems that she wants to get more information, and she has to meet that Yunzhu again.

In the kitchen of the Chengqian Palace.

Yunzhu was holding his baggage and was about to leave.

When Gu Qinghuan passed, he happened to bump into Yunzhu.

"You are..."

Yaqi didn't know why, so she stepped forward to block Yunzhu's way.

Yun Zhu's face was expressionless, and he glanced at Gu Qinghuan and the others coldly, and said, "It's me who is wrong." I thought you were dead, so let Cheng's father-in-law send you away quickly, don't be too bad. ”

"Now Aunt Hua is going to punish me for going to the Huanyi Bureau next month, which can be regarded as compensating you."

Aunt Yuehua's place, after investigating Yunzhu's body, there was no follow-up. Yun Zhu insisted on how things happened, and Aunt Yuehua couldn't find out more details.

In this way, it can only be punished in this way.

Huanyi Bureau, that's a place where you have to be tired from morning to night. Compared with the small kitchen of Chengqian Palace, it is indeed a heaven and an underground.

"Historically, palace maids have had a thin coffin and subsidized some silver for their families."

Gu Qinghuan clenched his fists and asked, "You are just a palace maid sweeping the floor in the kitchen, how can you have such great ability that even Cheng's father-in-law can command?" ”

"I heard that you gave five taels of silver back to go out. These five taels of silver, I'm afraid you have to go without eating or drinking for half a year to accumulate them, right? ”

In the words, Yun Zhu's complexion did not change at all.

"I just haven't eaten or drunk for half a year, what if I want to throw you out?"

Yunzhu said: "Why was you the one who was selected by Aunt Yuehua to serve by the fourth elder brother?" I'm not reconciled, what if I want to hurt yourself? ”

"It's because I'm not as good as others, and I think that if you're sick, I can get you away without knowing it. Unexpectedly, you are lucky, and there are nobles who can save you! ”

After Yun Zhu finished yelling, he threw down the burden in his hand, and he was about to come up and scratch Gu Qinghuan with his claws.

Gu Qinghuan hurriedly stepped back, but it was better to bump into a person's body.

At the same time, Yun Zhu's hand that had just stretched out was also grabbed by another more powerful hand.

"What are you doing here?"

A sharp scolding came from behind him, and everyone in the courtyard knelt down one after another.

"Fourth Elder Brother!"
