Chapter 81: Strange Performance

But like the former emperor of the Zhao family in the north, he had a period of time, obviously the most favored was Concubine Li, but he always put the concubine in front, which was to protect Concubine Li, shield, although Concubine Li was later disgusted, but when the emperor of the Zhao family in the north favored her, it was also a real favorite.

Gu Banqin is like the former concubine, an eye-catching symbol erected in the harem.

Maybe his own master has also discovered this problem, but it is just difficult to ride a tiger.

There is no way, Jia Jinlu has received a great favor, and he doesn't want to watch his master go all the way to the dark, so he can only try his best to help her.

Gu Banqin's words to Jia Jinlu can also be understood, her material needs are not high, as long as she does not worry about food and clothing.

Although I also knew that the other palace concubines couldn't think like this, I still felt strange, Su Liangyuan hadn't been in the palace for a day or two, so why couldn't she wait for this month?

Although Jia Jinlu didn't listen to her and asked Liu Baiye to bring her out of the palace, Gu Banqin could know if she thought about it, she must have asked the Su family to help and let the emperor spoil her.

Hey...... Su Liangyuan is really!

But that's not normal.

Because Su Liangyuan is a delicate beauty, with a good background, she was definitely raised by the family, and it can be seen that she should not have suffered any setbacks.

Such a girl is squeamish, even if she has the heart to climb high branches, but she shouldn't be so anxious, it's a more troublesome thing to spread the word from the palace, and she does it three times a month!

This is...... I'm in a hurry.

Could it be because Helian Hongyi favored Gu Banqin during this time, so Su Liangyuan was in a hurry?

But Helian Hongyi didn't spoil her for a day or two, why did Su Liangyuan start to be anxious this month alone?

Gu Banqin thought for a while and then said to Jia Jinlu: "You go to see where Su Liangyuan's money is used, if it is really as you said, just for food and clothing, three thousand taels of silver is too much." ”

Jia Jinlu wanted to speak and stopped, but he still decided not to raise the bar with Gu Banqin, and went down in response to the order.

The next day, I went to Cining Palace to ask for peace, and I wanted to see Su Liangyuan again, but Su Liangyuan sent someone to take leave early in the morning.

It's okay now, four Liangyuan, only Fang Liangyuan, Du Liangyuan, and Shi Liangyuan came.

Shi Liangyuan is a nerd, since Gu Banqin wrote that tutorial, Shi Liangyuan obviously admires Gu Banqin a lot, and when she saw Gu Banqin walking over, she took the initiative to stand up and salute Gu Banqin.

Gu Banqin returned the salute, and then looked at Shi Liangyuan next to him, Shi Liangyuan is a small jasper, thin figure, small facial features, born in a family of four-grade military generals, her father was a striker for the first emperor back then, and rose all the way.

Shi Liangyuan followed her mother, studied since she was a child, was literate and hyphenated, usually didn't talk much in the harem, always with a little inferiority, Gu Banqin's impression of her stayed in the way she followed Su Liangyuan and didn't speak.

It's just that Shi Liangyuan seems to be a little different from usual today, and his expression seems to be a little more confident, although he still doesn't talk much, but the whole is a little different.

Gu Banqin glanced at her twice and found that her hand was always in her sleeve.

Gu Banqin saw it several times, whether it was sitting or standing, and Gu Banqin remembered that Shi Liangyuan didn't like to wear wide-sleeved clothes very much before, her mother was from Jiangnan, Jiangnan women were so delicate, and she herself was petite, and her wide-sleeved clothes inevitably felt lightheaded and not beautiful.

Gu Banqin was observing Shi Liangyuan, Zhong Cairen, who was sitting in front of her, turned around and shouted softly to her, Gu Banqin came back to her senses and looked at Zhong Cairen, only to see Zhong Cairen secretly pointing at the Queen Mother, Gu Banqin looked over, and saw that the Queen Mother was staring at herself, as if waiting for her to do something.

Gu Banqin hurriedly stood up, the Queen Mother saw her soulless appearance, her face was cold, and the grandmother beside her reminded Gu Banqin: "Jieyu Niangniang, the Queen Mother asked you about the emperor's recent situation." ”

The Queen Mother likes to pull hatred for her as always, but Gu Banqin is used to it, and replied stubbornly:

"The Queen Mother forgives her sins, the concubine was distracted before, and she didn't rest well at night."

As soon as the phrase 'I didn't rest well at night' came out, it was unanimous contempt from the other concubines.

Gu Banqin didn't feel it, and continued: "The emperor has been doing well recently, and his appetite is good, and he ...... in all aspects All good. ”

Gu Banqin thought that the Queen Mother had already pulled hatred for her anyway, even if she was modest, others would still hate her, just a word, so that the other concubines hated her so much, but they were helpless against her.

When the Queen Mother heard her say this, she nodded: "Well, be careful, and recommend other sisters in the harem if you have the opportunity, don't just care about yourself being favored." ”

These are clichΓ©s, and Gu Banqin received the order: "Yes, the concubine knows." will definitely persuade the emperor to be wet with rain and dew. ”

The Queen Mother waved her hand and asked Gu Banqin to continue to sit down.

After Gu Banqin sat down, she continued to look back at Shi Liangyuan, who knew this, but found that Shi Liangyuan was also looking at her, but she didn't look at each other.

Shi Liangyuan seemed to be looking at the pair of hollow gold carvings inlaid with rubies on her head, Gu Banqin moved her head, Shi Liangyuan reacted, and when Gu Banqin found out, she hurriedly retracted her gaze, lowered her head, and continued to put her hand into the wide sleeves.

When he came back from Cining Palace, Jia Jinlu came to report:

"Niangniang, Su Liangyuan doesn't seem to have anything to do with other places in the palace, and it's just the expenses in the Splendid Palace, and it is estimated that the three thousand taels of silver tickets are for personal use, and they haven't used them all."

"There's no money anywhere else?"

This is even more strange, a person with Su Liangyuan's personality is always pampered by the family, and he has never lacked silver, as long as he has money left in his hand, he should not be able to keep it.

And if it's three thousand taels, what did she want?

Don't eat, wear, or do anything, so what does she want money for?

Gu Banqin had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and said to Jia Jinlu: "You go to explore again, this time it's not Su Liangyuan, you go to explore Shi Liangyuan and see if there is anything strange about her recently." ”

Jia Jinlu really didn't understand what Gu Banqin meant, at first he said that he wanted to find out the way Su Liangyuan sent the news out of the palace, but now how could he find out about Shi Liangyuan again. was about to go down, but was stopped by Gu Banqin and said:

"Wait, don't go, let Liu Wu go, she will talk to those little palace maids the most, it's not appropriate for you to go."

What Gu Banqin said is true, Jia Jinlu let him travel around the palaces, he still has some ability, but let him talk to the little palace maid, he really doesn't have the talent of Liu Wu, after receiving the order, he went to call Liu Wu, conveyed Gu Banqin's order, and went out of Fanghua Palace with Liu Wubing in two ways.

Helian Hongyi finished approving the recital, and was having lunch in the apse of the Taihe Palace, when he called Wang Shun's father-in-law over and asked:

"What has happened in Fanghua Palace in the past two days?"

It has been two or three days since he asked Gu Banqin to find trouble with Su Liangyuan, not only did Gu Banqin not move, it seemed that he had not even touched Su Liangyuan's face, but only heard Wang Shun's father-in-law say:

"Back to the emperor, there has been no movement in Fanghua Palace recently, Gu Jieyu is fine, it is said that the Queen Mother said a few words when Cining Palace asked for peace today, but it doesn't matter, it didn't hurt."

Wang Shun's father-in-law thought that the emperor was worried about Gu Banqin, so he said so.

Helian Hongyi put down the bowl in his hand, picked up the warm and wet towel on the side and wiped his hands, then stood up and walked to the front hall.

Wang Shun's father-in-law looked at the table of imperial food that had barely moved on the table, and wondered in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask anything, so he hurriedly shook off the dust and followed, Helian Hongyi sat back behind the dragon case, picked up a fold, opened it at the same time, and instructed Wang Shun's father-in-law:

"Let Bi Geng in."

Gu Banqin felt that Shi Liangyuan had a problem at first, and judging from her strange behavior, there was no tangible evidence and direction, so she didn't have much hope for the results of Liu Wu's investigation.

It's just that when Liu Fu came back, she was a little surprised by the news she knew.

"Mrs. Zhang, who specializes in boiling water for Shi Liangyuan, listened to Shi Liangyuan's personal palace maid Chuntao said that Shi Liangyuan has been a lot more generous in terms of money recently, Shi Liangyuan always said good things to them in the past, and the silver that she said was to be rewarded never really took out, but now she doesn't know what's going on, and she actually made up for the money she owed them in the past."

Liu Wu's words made Gu Banqin put down the pen in his hand and was stunned.
