Chapter 401: Affection
Among the concubines in the harem, in addition to Ji Promise, it was Bai Promise who left a better impression on Xia Chutao.
After settling down the affairs of Qingquan Palace, Xia Chutao went to the palace maid of the Shangyi Bureau and came to the Jinren Palace where Bai promised like she did that day.
"You're from the Shangyi Bureau? But the master of our family didn't say anything to call someone from Shangyi Bureau, what are you doing here? ”
This was just when he arrived at the door, and Xia Chutao was stopped by the palace people guarding the door.
Xia Chutao has always kept her head down, and her hood is tightly wrapped and her face is not revealed.
Thinking about it, Xia Chutao gave the sachet that Ji promised in his hand to the palace people guarding at the door.
"If you give this to your master, she will naturally come out to see me."
The palace man seemed to be a little hesitant to take the sachet handed over by Xia Chutao, she looked at it carefully, and said with some surprise.
"This sachet is like the handiwork of our master."
Xia Chutao nodded.
"Exactly, let's take it quickly."
When the palace people heard Xia Chutao say this, they immediately took the sachet given by Xia Chutao and went in.
After a while, the people of the palace became polite, and said to Xia Chutao with a smile.
"Our master invites you in."
Xia Chutao stepped into Jinren Palace, and under the guidance of this palace person, he came all the way to Bai Promise.
"You go down first, bring the door up, just guard the door, and if nothing else, remember not to let anyone else in."
When the man heard that Bai had promised such an order, he bowed respectfully and replied.
"Yes."
As he spoke, he gently closed the door of the temple.
Bai promised that this was the person in front of him, and said a little anxiously.
"How can you have Xiao Ji'er's sachet? Did you talk about her? I've been looking for a way to see her all this time, but I haven't found a chance, how is she in prison, is she doing? Did you get bullied? ”
Before Xia Chutao could speak, Bai Yu began to ask questions to Xia Chutao like a cannon, and a series of things didn't give Xia Chutao a chance to breathe.
Xia Chutao smiled faintly.
"Bai promised to rest assured, although Ji promised that his life in prison was a little harder, but fortunately, this matter was still not investigated, and the jailer did not dare to slack off, but the person lost a little weight, and the rest was nothing."
Hearing Xia Chutao say this, a big stone in Bai Yu's heart finally fell.
"That's fine, I'm afraid that she will be wronged in prison or something, which really makes me worry and be afraid. I just don't know you, why do you have Xiao Ji'er's sachet in your hand? She gave it to you? ”
"Exactly."
Saying that, Xia Chutao slowly took off his hood, Bai promised to look at the person in front of him fixedly, and found that this person was none other than Xia Chutao, Bai promised to be slightly surprised.
"Shang Yi...... Aunt Shangyi? ”
Bai Yu looked at Xia Chutao with some astonishment, he didn't expect that Xia Chutao would come to him at this time, and he felt that this matter was a little strange.
"Auntie...... Isn't it still under lockdown? ”
This matter is originally a rare thing in the palace, and they have all heard of the feet of the forbidden concubine, but it is the first time that they have heard of it when it is said that it is the foot of a Shangyi, and what do you know is that now people are standing in front of them, which suddenly makes Bai Yu feel at a loss.
"Also, aunt...... Why did you come to me with Xiao Ji'er's sachet? ”
She also knew that Ji promised to befriend Xia Chutao before, just because of this matter, Ji promised that she hadn't come to her for some time during this time, and she complained in private, but in the end, it was all Ji who promised herself, and she was not easy to ask anything.
"Bai promised Mingjian, and the slave maid made a special trip to beg Bai to help Ji agree."
"Ji promised to say that there was something to ask Bai to agree, but now it is really difficult for people to come out of prison, this is to call the slave maid to pass the word, but I am afraid that Bai promised not to believe it, so I handed over the sachet to the maid."
When Bai promised to hear this, it turned out to be such a thing, and looked at the sachet of Ji Promise in his hand meaningfully, but he also knew that Ji Promise was now isolated and helpless.
"Auntie, tell me, what does Xiao Ji'er want me to do?"
"Presumably, Bai promised and didn't believe that Ji promised to do such a thing, the slave and maid themselves watched this matter, and it definitely wouldn't be Ji Promise's doing, but now Ji Promise was falsely accused of being imprisoned, and many things are involuntarily, and he really can't do it himself."
"That prescription was appraised by the Tai Hospital before, but the Tai Doctor who said that there was no problem with this prescription had already escaped from the palace at this time, and someone had already been sent to chase him, if the person chased it and told the truth, I only asked Bai to promise to be able to go to His Majesty in front of Ji Promise to intercede."
"This ......"
When Bai promised to hear that this was such a thing, he was instantly embarrassed.
"I am really not favored among so many concubines, and since entering the palace, Your Majesty has not even been to my Jinren Palace, I am afraid that I have no way to speak in front of Your Majesty about this matter, and I am a low-spoken person, I am afraid that it is difficult to talk about this matter."
But Xia Chu Tao continued.
"Bai promised to be more talkative than the slave maid, and now the slave and maid are also grounded in the Qingquan Palace, and it is even more difficult to see His Majesty. Ji promised to the slave maid in prison, and the only one who can be trusted in the palace is Bai Promise you. ”
When Bai promised to hear that Ji promised to trust himself so much, his already wavering heart was even more hesitant.
Bai promised and Ji promised to have a good friendship in Su Ri, and they can be regarded as a pair of snuggling up to each other in the palace, no matter what, they are considered to be on the side with a lower position, and it is better to support each other in the palace.
Bai promised to think about this matter carefully, and only felt that if he did it well, it might not be without benefits.
"It's not necessarily necessary to promise Ji, but there must be conclusive evidence, I don't dare to go directly to His Majesty without anything and say big things without evidence."
Hearing Bai promise say this, Xia Chutao knew that Bai promised to be relieved, and hurriedly smiled.
"Bai promised to rest assured, this matter can naturally be arranged well."
Hearing this, Bai agreed and nodded.
"Then I know about this matter, if you have time to see Xiao Ji'er again, remember to tell her to take care of her body in prison, I am waiting for her to come out."
Xia Chutao owed slightly, and said respectfully.
"Yes."
……
After settling the matter that Ji promised, Xia Chutao felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, so he slowly walked back to Qingquan Palace.
Before leaving, Nanzhu knew that Xia Chutao had gone out, and when she saw Xia Chutao coming back, Nanzhu was full of sorrow.
Seeing Nanzhu's performance, Xia Chutao also felt strange.
"What's going on, what's going on?"
At the beginning of the summer, Tao asked Nanzhu to wipe the corners of his eyes, and when he looked closely, he was actually a little wet.
"I just heard a message from someone in the riot room that the jade pot couldn't bear the punishment of the riot room and committed suicide in the storm room."
Xia Chutao's heart sank, after she experienced the events of that day, she also believed that this matter was not made by the jade pot, maybe the jade pot was just a victim in this matter, but now that she thinks about it, she has borne all the faults of this matter, and she has always been a little embarrassed.
"...... like this"
Xia Chutao slowly handed her outer cloak to Nanzhu, and she couldn't help but feel a little heavy in her heart.
She sat down on a stool to the side, a little distracted, looking at the preserves on the table.
Nanzhu sobbed quietly, in the end, they all have some feelings for the jade pot, and they have worked together for a lot of time before, but now they are separated by yin and yang, so they must be uncomfortable in their hearts.
"Are you familiar with the family of the jade pot?"
Nanzhu sobbed a few times and looked at Xia Chutao.
"I know, the jade pot is also bitter in the house, so the people in the family sent the jade pot into the palace. There is a seriously ill old mother in the family of the jade pot, and then there is an elder brother who likes to gamble, no matter how much the jade pot takes out of the palace, it is for the brother of this white loser to gamble out, I heard that this brother still owes some gambling debts, and now he doesn't even dare to go home, and there is a dying old mother left in the house, how can this be good......"
Nanzhu said that he was moved, obviously sympathizing with the family of the jade pot, and Xia Chutao also felt very unpleasant when he listened to it in his heart.
She now believes that in such a family background, there is a reason why the jade pot has done this series of things, but there is no way to verify why it is now.
"It's not easy to ......"
Xia Chutao sighed, and then said to Nanzhudao.
"Something like that...... You just go to my jewelry box and pick out some jewelry, aren't you planning to go out of the palace to buy some things in the afternoon? Now that you can go out of the entire Qingquan Palace, you will be able to go out in the afternoon, and when you go out in the afternoon, you will take these jewelry as subsidies for the jade pot's home. ”
Nanzhu looked at Xia Chutao with some surprise, but she didn't expect that Xia Chutao was willing to pay out of her own pocket in this matter.
"Auntie......"
She originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a long time, she still didn't say a word.
But Xia Chutao said lightly.
"In the end, it is also the person who has done things under my hands, the master and servant, but there is also some affection, you just do what I say, and by the way, you will carry me out with a letter."
"Letter? To whom? ”
"General's Palace."
