Hagi Niang felt that it made sense, so she said to her kindly: "You can go with me, after all, you still know the cause and effect of this matter best, and I don't know where the place of Huanyi is." ”

Zhou Jia smiled proudly: "The slave is naturally willing to accompany you, but Sister Deng Xin is not in the Huanyi at this time, but in the yard to help clean it together, she is lazy, the slave will take you to the place where she rests on weekdays." ”

Hagi Niang's beautiful eyes revealed a gentle smile, and said appreciatively: "I saw you a little stupid before, but I didn't expect you to be quite capable, worthy of being the person I fancied, after all, you still have some ability." ”

Zhou Jia's face flushed excitedly, and he said happily: "Sister Hagi, how can the slave be as good as you praised, but you only see the goodness of the slave and the maid, but you don't know how unpopular the slave and maid are clumsy on weekdays." ”

Hagi Niang hurriedly comforted her and said: "A gentleman is quick to act, but not to words." The nagging woman is a long-tongued woman, and her words and deeds are the style of a gentleman. ”

Zhou Jia didn't understand the meaning of these words, she raised her blank eyes and glanced at Hagi Niang secretly, but when she saw Hagi Niang's look full of appreciation, she knew that it must be a good word, and her heart was even more joyful, and the wind was blowing under her feet, and she hurriedly walked to the front yard with Hagi Niang.

As Hagi Niang expected, Deng Xin, who was hiding behind the gloomy ancient tree, really denied it, saying that she and Yu Dong were not familiar at all, and had no contact at all, and Yu Dong's affairs had nothing to do with herself.

That posture is simply ruthless, and he doesn't recognize people at all.

Hagi Niang asked dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you use Huanyi together before, how could you not be familiar?" ”

Deng Xin's cunning eyes turned, and he said to him: "Now that Yu Dong is working in the kitchen, we don't live together on weekdays, nor do we work together, how can I say that I have a relationship with her?" ”

Zhou Jia immediately debunked her lies, and said righteously: "You are talking nonsense, I saw the two of you getting together last evening, talking in a low voice, and I don't know what you are discussing. ”

Deng Xin's face turned pale, and he said angrily: "It's strange that I said that it looks like someone is peeping, it turns out that you are a little hoof, who loves to eavesdrop on the privacy of others, and has no tutor at all!" ”

Hagi Niang was too lazy to meet her in general, and seeing that she had acquiesced in talking to Yu Dong, she hurriedly asked: "What did you and Yu Dong say yesterday, you tell me one by one, if there is half a word to hide, I will ask Niang Niang to send you back to the palace." ”

Although Deng Xin pretended to be scared, she was obviously happy, and she was obviously willing to return to the palace.

"You misunderstood, I didn't let you go back to the palace on an errand, I guess you should know what kinds of punishments are in the palace, Niangniang will naturally let you taste them one by one, until you are willing to tell the truth." Hagi Niang saw her face with joy, and added a few words coldly.

Deng Xin was really a little scared, and said tremblingly: "We, we didn't say anything." It's just talking about some old things in the palace. ”

Hagi Niang glanced at her with a smile, naturally dissatisfied with her answer.

She seemed to inadvertently grab Deng Xin's right hand, looked at the strings of white beads the same size as beads in her hands with appreciation, and said lightly: "The beads on Yu Dong's head are no longer ordinary things, and the beads in your hands are worth a lot of money, I have already inquired, the two of you are not from noble families, I am afraid that you may not be able to afford these two kinds of jewelry even if you are bankrupt, is it possible that the ordinary little palace maid in the palace is so high?" ”

Deng Xin hurriedly retracted her hand and said sneeringly: "This bracelet was rewarded by Miaoyin Niangniang." ”

"Oh? Is it? Then let's go to meet Miaoyin Niangniang together and see if she still remembers you, the little palace maid. Hagi Niang said disapplaudedly, she had already discovered that Miaoyin rarely dealt with low-level palace maids at all, and it was impossible to send such valuable things to a Huanyi maid.

Deng Xin saw that Haginiang's oil and salt did not enter, and made up her mind to ask herself, so she could only honestly kneel on the cold mud ground, and kowtowed again and again: "The slave and maid are guilty of death, I just ask you not to tell the slave and maid about this villain, if the slave and maid know, she will definitely blame the slave and maid." ”

"That's not necessarily, I can only promise that if you honestly explain all the things, I will ask my mother to forgive you so that you don't have to suffer too much." Hagi said leisurely.

Deng Xin said no, didn't say no, didn't say no, was very embarrassed, and finally could only say slowly: "Yesterday, Yu Dong and I were indeed talking about some old things when we were in the palace. At that time in the palace, although Miaoyin Niangniang was noble, she was not the most powerful ...... in this palace after all."

Hagi Niang listened to her chatter as if she wanted to start from the beginning, and said impatiently: "I have long known that you are doing things for the Queen Mother, what I want to know is what you have done for her, and how do you contact the Queen Mother now." ”

Deng Xin said suspiciously: "Now? Now in this wilderness of Cuihua Palace, how can the Queen Mother contact us, you are really joking, even if the Queen Mother is in the palace, it is impossible to stretch her hand so long. ”

Hagi Niang no longer dwelled on this matter with her, and only said: "Then you can tell me about the conversation between you and Yu Dong yesterday." ”

Deng Xin replied obediently: "On that day, we were ordered by the Empress Dowager to secretly go to the Empress Dowager's palace on a regular basis to report to her the letter period of Miaoyin Niangniang, but other than that, we did not do anything else for her. Yesterday, the slave maid and Yu Dong secretly discussed the matter, just like now, when you come to ask us, do we want to tell the truth. ”

Zhou Jia interjected disapprovingly: "How can it be so simple, I see that when you all know that Suosuo has discussed a cup of tea, how can you just say three or two sentences." ”

Deng Xin glared at her and continued: "The slave persuaded Yu Dong at that time, you and Miaoyin Niangniang are both lenient people, and they will not be too harsh on us for such a thing, even if you tell the truth, there is no big sin, but if you hide it, it will make Niangniang even more suspicious, wouldn't it be worth the loss." ”

What he said seemed to be elevating Hagi Niang, but in fact, the real purpose was just to squeeze Hagi Niang with her words and make her not good at punishing the two.

In fact, Yu Dong is dead, Hagi Niang didn't want to hurt people anymore, she just smiled when she heard this, neither agreeing nor immediately refuting it.
