The turmoil outside has subsided in this matter, and Shen Xingyue still has heard about it. However, this has not changed much in her life, she has always enjoyed the highest standard of food and clothing in the palace, and the sound from outside is not easy to enter.

On this day, Shen Xingyue put the two children to sleep, and when she saw that they had stopped, she thought of the maid she had sent into the Xin Zheku a few days ago.

She was silent for a moment, and then called Liu Xiu over.

"You come with me." Liu Xiu and Takiyan are both objects that Shen Xingyue can trust, but she went in secret this time, and she can't rely on it so much, so she is only ready to call someone to go with her.

Liu Xiu immediately put down the work in his hand and said to Takiyan again, and the two of them went out from the back door of the Moon Viewing Palace.

"Mother, where are we going?" knew that Shen Xingyue had a good temper, and she would not be harsh on her, and over time, Liu Xiu became a lot more lively by her side.

Liu Xiu was also beside her that time, so as soon as Shen Xingyue said that she was going to Xin Zheku, she immediately understood who she was going to, and obediently led the way in front.

The location of the Moon Viewing Palace is the best in the entire palace, and the Xin Zheku is a general term, so if you want to go from the Moon Viewing Palace to the Xin Zheku, it still takes a long distance, the two walked silently, and no one spoke.

After a while, the two of them finally walked over, there was no one in there at this time, and one of the palace maids who was washing clothes in the courtyard was the one sent in by Shen Xingyue before.

She was washing her clothes and didn't notice Shen Xingyue's arrival.

Occasionally, nobles would come here to pick up things, so no one was too excited because Shen Xingyue came over, after all, they had already been sentenced.

"What are you thinking?" Liu Xiu moved a stool for Shen Xingyue, and Shen Xingyue didn't dislike it, so she sat down directly and asked the palace maid.

The palace maid was stunned for a moment, then looked up and saw Shen Xingyue, and the expression on her face was also wonderful. However, after a short brain shutdown, she quickly stood up and was about to kneel in front of Shen Xingyue, but was pulled by Shen Xingyue and asked her to sit back.

"Concubine Yue's mother......" The palace maid didn't expect Shen Xingyue to come here, and she was at a loss at this time, and she didn't know what to do.

"What are you thinking? Hongu just saw that you were doing laundry, but your soap horn has been useless for a while. Shen Xingyue repeated the previous question.

If she was really doing the laundry, she wouldn't have to use soap for so long, right?

Shen Xingyue still stood next to her for a while, and at this time she was also able to realize the distraction of the palace maid.

The palace maid lowered her head: "The slave is guilty." ”

"What are you guilty of?" Her nervous appearance made Shen Xingyue's doubts about her a little deeper.

When she was in the Moon Palace before, she was not so nervous, but behaved extremely steadily.

"Slaves and maids shouldn't be distracted when they wash clothes for nobles, it's all bad for slaves and maids, please punish Concubine Yue." The palace maid lowered her head, and her voice was very small, I don't know if she was frightened, or if she was afraid of revealing Shen Xingyue's identity.

"This palace is not angry with you because of this, but you can tell me, why are you different from you at that time?" Shen Xingyue looked at the palace maid in front of her with interest, and always felt that there must be big news about her.

The palace maid bit her lip and looked around again, there were many palace maids who were busy working next to her, which was obviously afraid of too many people.

Shen Xingyue suddenly understood: "Then find a place where no one is around." ”

With Shen Xingyue by her side, even if the palace maid left at this time, no one dared to say anything.

The three of them found a secluded corner, and the palace maid knelt on the ground and was about to kowtow to Shen Xingyue, but was stopped by Liu Xiu in time.

At this time, there were already tears on the palace maid's face.

"If you say anything, Concubine Yue will not embarrass you, as long as you tell the truth." Liu Xiu knew that Shen Xingyue couldn't see anyone like this, so he also persuaded the palace maid.

The palace maid finally calmed down, and then nodded: "The slave and maid know, but the slave and maid don't know what to say." ”

"Whatever you know, just say it." Shen Xingyue looked at her, and there was no contempt or impatience in her eyes that palace maids were familiar with.

Maybe Shen Xingyue was too gentle, and the palace maid finally said it.

She was originally the only daughter in the family, but when she was a child, the family adopted another boy. When she grew up and entered the palace, her brother, the adopted son of the family, also came to the capital.

Because the palace maid was assigned to work in the imperial dining room as soon as she came in, she was able to get a good time with her brother by virtue of her sweet mouth, and she also got the job of going out to buy every week, and whenever that time came, she could have a good time with her brother.

At first, her brother was still poor and needed her to pick him up.

But recently, my brother has changed. He wore silk and satin, and he also had his own house, and he was served by subordinates when he went in and out, and it was not at all what he had seen before.

She suspected that her brother had done something bad, and when she asked him, he was annoyed and unwilling to tell her.

On a shopping opportunity, she saw her brother appear in a restaurant, and she also took the opportunity to follow him, and found that he was communicating with several people in black, saying that he wanted to arouse public opinion and make Concubine Yue's reputation ruined.

She fled in a hurry, but after returning to the palace, she still couldn't forget this incident, and the next time she went out to buy, this matter had already spread outside.

She was a little scared, hoping that this matter could reach the nobles, so that they could deal with it as soon as possible, so as to avoid other uncontrollable consequences if it spread further.

"What about your brother?" Shen Xingyue asked out loud?

The palace maid lowered her head: "It was after I heard my brother discuss with those people, when I left the palace for the second time, my brother had disappeared, and no one knew where he was." ”

Shen Xingyue also frowned slightly when she heard this, according to what the palace maid said, her brother should not be a person who can easily let go of power, so he disappeared, and it is estimated that he was killed and killed.

"I'm sorry for my brother, I didn't dare to tell others about it, and I didn't dare to face my brother, and even deliberately let Concubine Yueniang transfer me out of the imperial dining room for this reason, and escape these ...... by not leaving the palace"

As she spoke, she hid her face and began to cry.

A little girl who grew up in a home with a thousand pampered children, where has she ever seen such a thing. I was nervous and didn't say anything, now that my brother's whereabouts are unknown, she obviously has some thoughts, but she doesn't dare to say it, so she can only deceive herself, hoping that she can feel better.
