Chapter 463: Li Guo Detective
Zhen Zhen suddenly said: "Then how did you choose to enter the palace as a maid?" "Generally speaking, those who can enter the palace as maids are from well-off white families in various places, and the daughters of poor families are yellow and thin, and it is difficult to be selected without rules and knowledge, let alone those who have fled.
Guilan said: "Seven years ago, Bingzhou also suffered a disaster, and my parents couldn't sell me to Renyazi in order to survive, and then I was bought into the Xinwang Mansion, because I could comb my hair, I stayed by the princess's side, and later followed into Beijing and entered the palace." ”
Zhen Zhen said: "Is there still a connection with the family? ”
Mama Jiao interjected: "Guilan can honor her parents, and more than half of the monthly money every month has to be brought back to her parents in Bingzhou." ”
Zhen Zhen said: "Oh? That's a filial daughter. Do you have any relatives in the country? ”
Guilan said: "Yes, there are quite a few." In the past two years, the life of the people of Li has also been better, and relatives on both sides have come and gone again. ”
Zhen Zhen said: "That's really good. ”
Guilan said: "Although the slave maid only lived in the country of Li for a few years when she was a child, she has never forgotten the days of picking lotus pods, water chestnuts and catching fish and crabs in the lotus pond. ”
The three of them chatted, Zhen Zhen finished washing, and Mama Jiao went to change the water.
When Guilan changed into pajamas for Zhen Zhen, she said softly: "Miss, there have been some rumors recently, and the slave doesn't know whether to talk about it or not. ”
"You are not guilty. Go ahead. Zhen Zhen said.
Guilan said: "The slaves and maids also listened to the maids in the post house. They said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would marry the crown princess of the Li Kingdom, so that not only could he consolidate His Royal Highness's position, but also tie the Ning Kingdom and the Li Kingdom together, so that they would not be afraid of the Yuantai people coming over. They also said, Miss, you will marry the emperor of the Li Kingdom as the empress, so it is not a grievance against you. It's all said to have noses and eyes. For example, the reason why His Royal Highness would rather keep a funeral than marry you into the door is because he feels that the family affairs arranged by the first emperor are unsatisfactory, and he always thinks about getting out of the marriage. He also said that King Li fell in love with you at first sight; The Empress is also very satisfied with you. The slaves and maids also heard from them that the etiquette of the Li Kingdom is not so strict, and there is a lot of leniency for women, and a talented person like you can only show his skills if he stays in the Li Kingdom. Miss, you have to pay attention to these statements, now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is gone, you have to be careful alone. These shadowless things, maybe someone will take them seriously. ”
Zhen Zhen actually hates this kind of baseless gossip. She doesn't mind herself, but she can't be sure that others will believe that it will be affected, which will affect her external image and credibility.
When he raised his eyes and saw that Guilan was carefully looking at his face, he tried his best to hold his expression and not let his face collapse: "You have heard a lot of words. It's all gibberish, and you can't say it again to anyone in the future, otherwise you'll have to wait for the family to collect your body. ”
Guilan knelt down with a plop: "Miss spare your life!" The slave maid thinks that if the gossip outside reaches His Royal Highness the Prince, but Miss You don't know about it at all, and you don't deal with it properly, which affects the relationship between you and His Royal Highness the Prince. The slave was worried that the young lady would suffer. Although the slave maid has not been with the young lady for a long time, she can feel that the young lady treats us subordinates very well, and the slave and maid are willing to serve the young lady for a lifetime. Ask the young lady to spare the slave's life, the slave knows that she is wrong, and she will no longer talk nonsense. ”
"Okay, I already know all these things, just don't say it again. Let's go down first. Zhen Zhen took off his shoes and went to bed.
"Yes, miss." Guilan laid out Zhen Zhen's shoes and socks, got out of the tent, and withdrew.
Early the next morning, Zhen Zhen found Feng Qi and asked directly, "What is the origin of that Guilan?" ”
Feng Qi's expression was obviously a little flustered: "Miss, the little one really has nothing to do with Guilan!" Little swear! The little one definitely didn't do anything to be sorry for Red Cloud. ”
Zhen Zhen didn't expect to blow up such a big melon, and said with a smile: "I didn't doubt you." I know that she was bought from Renyazi when the Xinwangfu was in Dazhou. Just tell me what you know. ”
Feng Qi said: "When Guilan first entered the palace, she was a teenage girl, with quick hands and feet, diligent work, and a sweet mouth, which was very likable. But after a long time, I feel that she is actually very scheming. Others dare not say it, but Xiao always feels that she always has another purpose in approaching Xiao. ”
Feng Qi said this, and he stopped talking.
Zhen Zhen said: "After finishing speaking, or I will ask the same thing from someone else's mouth, it will seem that you are deliberately concealing it." ”
Feng Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "At first, Xiao thought that she always found an excuse to come to Xiao Shi, which was interesting to Xiao Shi. But after she came, she always asked about His Highness, intentionally or unintentionally. So the little one thinks she's actually interested in His Highness. In the palace, there are more people like her who want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, so the princess is still very strict in governing the family. She didn't get any bargain from me, and I guess there was no better way, but she kept to herself a lot. ”
Zhen Zhen said: "Since you have nothing to do with her for a long time, you reacted so much just now, what is it for?" ”
Feng Qi's face turned red instantly: "After arriving in Li Kingdom, she came to the small room several times, saying that she wanted to chat. The little one was quite polite to her at first. But the day before yesterday, she suddenly hugged ...... Hugged the little ...... Say, say, I like the little one for a long time, and I want to marry the little one. The little one immediately refused, in fact, she knew that the little one was married, and Hongyun was going to give birth. Also, it's so brazen, it's really infuriating! ”
Zhen Zhen said: "Maybe she regrets that she didn't seize the opportunity to marry you in time, and now she wants to make up for it." ”
Feng Qi's eyes widened: "Miss? How do you know? That's what she said. She also said that she would go to His Highness and let His Highness be the master. The little one told her that His Highness was in a hurry to return to Ningguo, and asked her not to cause trouble. She said that I was looking for an excuse to lie to her, and I had to go to His Highness. I was afraid that she would make a fuss and it would be difficult to clean up, so I followed her to His Highness's house and let her see that His Highness's things had indeed been packed up. She also asked if something had happened to Shangdu. I didn't tell her. ”
Zhen Zhen listened carefully and nodded thoughtfully.
Feng Qi was anxious again: "Miss, can you believe Guilan's words, no matter what she says." The little one really didn't mean to take her as a concubine. Even if Her Highness pointed her out to me, I wouldn't want it. ”
Zhen Zhen said: "You, relax." Your Highness will not force you to take a concubine, I can guarantee that. I came to you because I have a question that I need you to arrange for someone to verify. I don't think Guilan is an ordinary person, she is likely to be a spy of Li Guo. ”
"Huh? Li Guo's spies? This...... Is it true? "Feng Qi can't connect the soft and weak Guilan with the spies. 166 Reading Network
