Chapter 195
Liang Huanqing knew that when Concubine Mei planned the Chinese New Year's Eve feast, there must have been a lot of people coming and going, including many palace concubines.
She didn't dare to guarantee what kind of person the person who helped Lu Huiling was now, she was thinking about how it would be more appropriate to ask, so that Aunt Yun Xi could remember that person in an instant.
This matter is very important, there is no evidence that can accuse Lu Huiling at present, Xiaolian is dead, the aunt on duty was also killed and dumped the body, Lu Huiling did not leak, it is not possible to find that person, and you have to know what kind of connection there was between the other party and Lu Huiling, which can make Lu Huiling trust that person so much, and also make that person willingly do things for Lu Huiling.
"When Concubine Mei was planning a feast and a hunt, did anyone ever give constructive advice?" Liang Huanqing asked such a sentence for a long time, her eyes were serious and solemn, she stared at Yun Xi intently, eager to know what Yun Xi would say next.
Yun Xi was a little stunned, she didn't understand why Princess Jing asked this, but thinking that Princess Jing was so frightened during today's hunting, the feather arrow was about to shoot into her heart, she must want to know the truth.
Yun Xi didn't have time to think about it so much, she felt that someone might have deliberately framed Mei Guifei, deliberately wanted to make Mei Guifei ugly, and on such an important occasion, Mei Guifei couldn't get off the stage, and the first thing Yun Xi thought of was the palace fight.
But in a blink of an eye, if it was a battle between palace concubines, who would take such a big risk? Destroying the state banquet and endangering the life of the princess is a great crime to punish the nine clans.
When I think about it later, it may really be like some people say, it is the spies of other countries who deliberately want to destroy the feast of the Celestial Empire, and the purpose is not Liang Huanqing, but it is very likely that they want to do something in the chaos.
But Yun Xi didn't have time to think about these things, Concubine Mei was unconscious, and the princess and princess still needed her to take care of them, so she didn't have time to think about them at all.
"It's... It's me. Yun Xi's mind was blank, she only remembered that the hunting matter was brought up by herself, although she didn't know why Princess Jing asked this, and she didn't know what the consequences of asking this would be, but she still answered truthfully.
"Nope! It won't be you! Liang Huanqing said categorically, the person she asked was Lu Huiling's minions, the person who did things for Lu Huiling, without this person, Lu Huiling would not have been able to complete this matter.
This person also has a characteristic, that is, there must be some benefits that only Lu Huiling can give, or there must be some handle in Lu Huiling's hands.
Now I don't have time to carefully understand Lu Huiling's social circle in the palace, Lu Huiling has been favored in the palace, naturally there are many people who befriend Lu Huiling, but this person who helps Lu Huiling will definitely not let people know that she has been to Minghuatang, if Mei Guifei knows that this person has been to Minghuatang and has been to Lu Huiling, she will definitely not trust her.
It must not be Yun Xi, Yun Xi can't do such a thing, she is by Mei Guifei's side all day long, and she has no chance to contact Lu Huiling at all, especially in this busy day, Mei Guifei can't do without Yun Xi's care at all, even if Yun Xi has a heart, it is impossible to have the opportunity to do this.
Moreover, according to Yun Xi's loyalty to Mei Guifei, if Lu Huiling told Yun Xi about it, Yun Xi turned around and told Mei Guifei that Lu Huiling would not take this risk.
"The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Yun Xi was taken aback by Liang Huanqing, and hurriedly thought of someone and said it.
"No... It's too obvious. This is still not the answer Liang Huanqing wants.
It is very possible for the head of the Internal Affairs Office to do this kind of thing, but he has no way to interfere with Mei Guifei's thoughts, besides, the head of the Internal Affairs Office is still inseparable from today's feast.
Some time ago, Lu Huiling was punished, and the head of the Internal Affairs Office was also punished, he definitely won't help Lu Huiling anymore, and besides, this is a head-off deal, and no one will agree.
The person who helped Lu Huiling with his errands must have a reason why he had to help.
Yun Xi pondered for a while, she thought about it carefully, Mei Guifei was worried about the feast game before, and she mentioned hunting to Mei Guifei, hunting can allow everyone to participate, and it is also relatively ornamental, for safety, a little rabbit was also placed in advance for everyone to shoot arrows.
But now it has developed into shooting people with flat-headed arrows...
"Nobleman!" Yun Xi suddenly thought of the nobleman, and hurriedly exclaimed, "It's the nobleman!" The matter of shooting people with flat-headed arrows was brought up by her to Concubine Mei! ”
Everyone seemed to see hope, they looked at each other, and asked in unison, "Who is the nobleman?" ”
Yun Xi shook her head and said: "She was a concubine who entered the palace a few years ago, when Empress Mingxian had just been buried, just because the emperor felt that her lips looked very much like Empress Mingxian during the draft, so she was elected to the harem and made a nobleman." But the nobles themselves do not fight or grab, and their family background is average, and the emperor is not much interested in her. Originally, if she had come to talk to the concubine earlier, or... With the other concubines, it was a little better that day..."
Hearing Yun Xi say this, the noble man is the one who agrees with the tepid character who does not fight, does not rob, and such a temperament that does not fight or grab, as long as he finds a reason, he can win the trust of Concubine Mei.
"And then?!" Liang Huanqing lowered his head and pondered, and Qin Ruilan hurriedly asked.
Yun Xi looked at Qin Ruilan, I don't know why they asked so much about the harem, but after all, they are all good friends of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and their impression of them is also excellent, so she told the truth.
Later, Concubine Mei was worried about the feast, and she couldn't spend anything else. At this time, Concubine Ming was rising again, and many concubines in the palace could stammer with her, but the nobles came to see the noble concubine and help manage the Chinese New Year's Eve feast, so they also proposed the game system of shooting people with flat-headed arrows. Yun Xi frowned and said, feeling remorseful in her heart, she shouldn't have let Mei Guifei agree to Xue Guiren's proposal in the first place, if she had known it earlier, there would not have been so many troubles now.
"The concubine believes it?" Qin Ruilan was a little incredible.
It stands to reason that Concubine Mei can climb from a small nobleman to her current position, although they can't empathize, but they all know that all this is not easy.
Mei Guifei can get to this position now, I don't know how many things that ordinary people can't bear, besides, a few years ago, Empress Mingxian has not died, but Mei Guifei can still share the emperor's favor with her, how can she easily trust a strange concubine now?
Yun Xi shook her head and said: "No, she is gentle, she does not fight or rob, and she does not accept the willow branches thrown by anyone in the palace, even Concubine Ming once intended to let her go to Minghuatang to sit, but she also refused because of illness." In such a situation, she still came to talk to Concubine Mei every day, and she didn't see anything strange about her..."
And it's no wonder. If it weren't for Liang Huanqing and the others who knew in advance that it was Lu Huiling who did this, they wouldn't have thought that Guiren was Lu Huiling's minions.
But how could such a nobleman, who has not fought or robbed since he entered the palace, agree to help Lu Huiling do such a thing to punish the nine clans?
Liang Huanqing couldn't figure it out, and Qin Ruilan couldn't figure it out, but now he had to know the secret behind the nobleman's body, so that it was possible to reveal Lu Huiling's original form.
And now it is impossible to personally go to the nobleman to ask the nobleman what is hidden behind this, if the nobleman can agree to Lu Huiling this kind of thing, I think only Lu Huiling can help the nobleman get some of the things that the nobleman desperately wants, not as superficial as glory and wealth, nor is it the honor of the saint...
So what could it be?
Yun Xi is also a little worried that the nobleman has harmed Concubine Mei, but I don't know why, does the nobleman have the courage to make such a big move?
"What has happened to the noble family lately?" Liang Huanqing asked suddenly.
Liang Huanqing didn't deliberately ask Yun Xi, because she knew that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, and the nobles had been in the palace for so many years, and suddenly wanted to do this kind of thing, thinking that something was wrong at home, and Lu Huiling's family was in a high position, as long as Lu Gaohong was willing, he could cover the sky with one hand, and the nobles could give Lu Huiling whatever they wanted, and the only thing the nobles could do was to listen to Lu Huiling's words.
What Lu Huiling likes is the noble person's desireless and unwanted, non-fighting and non-grabbing temperament.
And Liang Huanqing lives in the palace and does not do political affairs, so naturally he doesn't even know who the noble lady's mother is, but the people who can enter the palace draft are more or less court officials.
Yun Xi naturally didn't know this, she shook her head blankly and looked at Liang Huanqing, she didn't know what they were doing, but she could clearly feel that they were investigating the truth behind this matter, Yun Xi had been a palace maid for so many years, so she naturally knew what to ask and what not to ask, if they didn't say it, she wouldn't take the initiative to understand.
Qin Ruilan, Yuebai, and Xiao'er also shook their heads together, they have been in the boudoir for so long, naturally they don't know what happened in the court, and they, like Liang Huanqing, don't know who the noble lady's mother is.
At this time, Wei Shen, who had been silent for a long time on the side, seemed to have thought of something, he looked at Aunt Yun Xi and asked, "Dare to ask what is the real name of the nobleman?" ”
"Yin Xue is the only daughter of the original five-grade Yin Qianhu." Yun Xi said in detail.
"Wupin Yin Qianhu, a month ago, was imprisoned with dozens of officials on suspicion of embezzling the amount of grain and grass on the front line, and then the emperor ordered Prime Minister Lu Cheng to personally investigate the matter, Yin Qianhu was just an accomplice, and did not embezzle grain and grass money, and then he was dismissed and sent back to his hometown in Jingzhou." Wei Shen solemnized his expression and said word by word.
When this corruption case came out, they must have been indignant as military personnel, and then they felt strange when they heard that Yin Qianhu had overturned the case, but Prime Minister Lu's evidence was conclusive, and the amount was logarithmic, so they did not pursue it further.
