Chapter 193: Whistleblowing

Chapter 193

can only pretend to focus on Ji Changle's body first, even if it is discovered and detected, at most, these women in the embroidery room want to compete and be arrogant, and they are still a family when they close the door.

With Chen Umbrella's help, Guo Xiaoyi's frowning brows eased a little, and slowly smiled, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

——

The night was hazy, and the soft moonlight shrouded the earth.

Ji Changle's face was tired, he knocked on his shoulders that were stiff and painful because of sitting for a long time, and shook his neck, but he didn't go directly to the room to rest, but took out the strip of cloth that Lu Chengxuan handed over to her, and took the lead in going to Liu Manting's residence, who was good friends with her.

"Changle, why are you here?"

Liu Manting had just finished washing, wearing a coat alone, and the ink-like green silk was hanging down on her waist, and she was a little surprised to see Ji Changle.

Among these female histories who went to the embroidery room at the same time, the embroidery level of Ji Changle and Guo Xiaoyi was high, so the clothes and bedding that these favored concubines wanted fell on the two of them, and the birth day of Mrs. Guifei was close at hand, in addition to the embroidery of summer clothes, it was also necessary to prepare everything used by the unborn prince or princess, and the burden became serious.

Ji Changle is either busy in the embroidery room or in his bedroom every day, and it is the first time he comes out to hang out.

Ji Changle didn't waste any time, and directly handed the rags in front of Liu Manting, "Manting, do you know whose clothes are this?" Or have you ever seen one? ”

If what Lu Chengxuan said is true, the owner of this clothing material is out of the embroidery room, then you only need to ask more, and you can ask someone sooner or later!

Liu Manting took it, her slender and slender fingers rubbed on the material, and looked at the texture and stitches more carefully, "Look at this is not something valuable, it should be used by the female history of the embroidery room, and looking at the origin of this material, it should be the fabric woven by the embroidery girl of Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital." ”

Ji Changle's brows furrowed.

Although Liu Manting's words failed to find a candidate directly, they also helped Ji Changle narrow the scope.

Ji Changle's hometown in Jiangnan is not very familiar with this kind of material, but the people in the capital ...... It's still a female history, and it's not too expensive to wear.

Among the embroidered girls in the same year, there don't seem to be too many such people.

"Okay, I see, thank you Manting!"

Ji Changle carefully took the rags of cloth again, turned around and planned to leave, and went to ask elsewhere, but he was stopped by Liu Manting if he didn't want to.

"Changle, what are you asking for, is there anything different about this rag of fabric?" Liu Manting is very strange.

Ji Changle shook his head, "I don't know what the specific role is, I also asked for a friend." ”

Liu Manting frowned suspiciously, "Friend? ”

Ji Changle's personality is very good, but there are not many people she knows, her friends are nothing more than female histories who meet day and night in the embroidery room, they are all in the embroidery room, if there is anything that can't be asked by herself, and it has to be entrusted to Ji Changle to do it, Liu Manting is worried that Ji Changle has been deceived.

"Well, don't worry, Manting, she's not from our embroidery room, that's why she found me." Ji Changle said with a smile.

Liu Manting thought for a while, "I seem to remember that the Chen Nushi family next door lives in the suburbs of Beijing, and she should be very familiar with which cloth village sold it!" ”

The history of Chen Nu next door......

It's Chen Umbrella......

Ji Changle's face changed slightly, and the other people in this embroidery room were okay to say, but Chen Umbrella ...... Chen Umbrella and Guo Xiao are also the same spirit, when they were in the palace maid's house before, they did not oppress the royal maids who were defeated in the same session, and after arriving at the embroidery room, they colluded with the older generation of embroidery girls in the embroidery room more quickly, and began to command them when they gained a firm foothold.

It's not very friendly to yourself.

When there is no direct conflict between things on weekdays, I find fault from time to time to make myself unhappy, if I take the initiative to ask......

Fear of being ridiculed is a small matter, and not being able to ask the truth is the most important thing.

This is what Cheng Xuan asked her to do, she was laughed at for a few words, and delaying Cheng Xuan's important matter would be counterproductive and unhelpful.

Ji Changle bit his lip in embarrassment, and Liu Manting saw Ji Changle's entanglement, "Otherwise, you can hand over this rag to me, and I'll help you ask." ”

Chen Umbrella's relationship with her is not very good, but after all, the face of saying a word will still be given.

Ji Changle was overjoyed, and coquettishly grabbed Liu Manting's arm, "Manting......"

"Alright, don't be coquettish."

"I'll only help you this time, don't be nosy in the future!" Liu Manting looked at Ji Changle's appearance helplessly, and said in a serious voice.

Ji Changle nodded busily, "Don't worry, I understand!" ”

"Just this once, I won't help people in the future!"

Liu Manting and Ji Changle walked together, but they didn't expect that as soon as the two opened the door, they bumped into a figure head-on.

Ji Changle's body was unstable and he was almost knocked down, and the person opposite also screamed directly, "Wow, how did you walk?" ”

"I didn't see anyone coming! It hurts me to death. ”

The embroidery cloth on the ground fell to the ground, and Liu Manting and Ji Changle looked at the people who were picking up things on the ground and complaining at each other, and they saw embarrassment in each other's eyes.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

The person who was knocked down...... It's Chen Umbrella.

Liu Manting glanced at Ji Changle, and Ji Changle squatted on the ground in a panic to help Chen Umbrella pick up those fallen things, "Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, Chen Nushi, are you okay?" ”

"Are you alright?"

"You see that my wrist was hit red by you, and the embroidery cloth fell to the ground and was dirty, you told me that it was okay?" Chen Umbrella looked at Ji Changle angrily, "You are also an embroidery girl, don't you know how important the embroidery thread is to the history of the embroidery girl, Ji Changle, did you deliberately come to hit me because I was unhappy!" ”

Ji Changle was about to cry, "Chen Nushi, it's not like this, I really didn't mean to." ”

Liu Manting comforted Ji Changle and smiled, "Chen Nushi, you see, we really came out in a hurry just now, so we didn't see anyone outside and hit you, it is true that whoever is knocked down will not be in a good mood, we also understand you, but something has already happened, instead of arguing here about whose voice is higher and whose voice is lower, it is better to think of a practical way to solve this matter, are you right?" ”

Chen Umbrella flattened his mouth, although he was still very reluctant, but he still agreed with what Lin Manting said, "Then what do you say you should do?" ”

Liu Manting smiled gently, "Look at this, we will try our best to help you restore these embroidery threads to their original state, and make up for them with the greatest ability. ”

Unless it is a special precious embroidery thread, there is only one copy, it will be gone if it is broken or embroidered wrongly, but Chen Umbrella's qualifications are not high, and the errands she was assigned to are some ordinary summer clothes, like this embroidery thread, there should be a lot of it in the warehouse, and there will be mistakes when embroidering women, normally everyone has a certain amount of reported loss, even if it exceeds this amount, you can also use your own monthly example to fill it, and it is not impossible to solve it.

Chen Umbrella held the things that fell to the ground back in his arms, and raised his neck high, "Okay, after all, you are still sensible, since you have said so, then I don't need to hold on to it anymore, otherwise it will look like I have to ignore people, and today's matter will give you a face!" ”

Liu Manting bowed slightly, "Thank you." ”

Chen Umbrella was about to leave, but was stopped by Liu Manting again, "Chen Nushi, wait, there is one more thing I want to ask you about." ”

"I don't know if Chen Nushi can recognize the origin of this fabric? Or do you know who the owner of the fabric is? ”

Liu Manting handed the rags of fabric to Chen Umbrella and humbly asked for advice.

Chen Umbrella's pupils opened slightly, but he quickly suppressed it, and the expression on his face returned to normal, "This material...... I seem to have seen it on Jiang Nushi's body, it should be hers, this material is only available in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, she and I are both from the suburbs of Beijing, but I usually don't like such bright colors, but she wears a lot of similarities. ”

Chen Umbrella pretended to be serious and returned the material to Liu Manting's hands, "It's just a material, why are you so nervous?" ”

"Still asking around?"

Liu Manting smiled politely, "I wasn't nervous, I just happened to see Chen Nushi and asked more, thank you Chen Nushi for your advice!" ”

"You're welcome, you remember to take care of all this embroidery thread for me!" Chen Umbrella didn't have time to entangle with Liu Manting and Ji Changle, and after throwing the embroidery box in his arms to Ji Changle, he turned around and left.

But the moment he turned to leave, the expression on his face was panicked and serious.

Ji Changle and Liu Manting looked at the back of Chen Umbrella leaving, with doubts on their faces.

"Manting, is what you said Chen Umbrella just said true?"

"Is this rag really Jiang Yubai?" Ji Changle always felt that Chen Umbrella was not so kind, but there was no need to lie to them, after all, Chen Umbrella didn't know what they were going to do!

In addition, the color that Chen Umbrella wears on weekdays is very plain, Jiang Yubai really wants to see some of it, this material is purple, and Jiang Yubai is very likely.

Liu Manting frowned, "I don't know, but since Chen Umbrella has already given the answer, you can reply to the friend who entrusted you with something." ”

"As for whether Jiang Yubai is white or not, you can ask your friend to judge."

So many people have asked people to investigate, but they refuse to say why, most of them are unseemly things, if it is an unseemly thing, even if she asks Jiang Yubai in person, she will not admit it.

And Liu Manting believes that the person who is looking for Ji Changle behind his back should also have the object of speculation in his heart, so he wants to use Ji Changle's hand to tell the person he wants to tell.

Liu Manting told uneasily, "Remember, you just need to tell her the whole process of your investigation, I believe she will understand." ”

"Okay, I got it!"

Ji Changle nodded heavily, "Manting, you are still thoughtful." ”

"I also know that you are so cautious and cautious for my sake, but Cheng Xuan is not a bad person, wait for the opportunity for me to introduce you to each other, and you may like her at that time!"

She and Liu Manting are neighbors, but the Liu family has declined in this generation, there are no high-ranking officials, and the children of the Liu family are also studying for the imperial examination, so Liu Manting is not qualified for the draft, but directly entered the palace to participate in the embroidery girl, two years earlier than Ji Changle.

Although Liu Manting's embroidery is not very outstanding, it is not bad, it is better to be careful and cautious, and it can be assigned to work with Liu Manting on errands, and Ji Changle's whole person is also a lot easier.

"Okay."

Liu Manting nodded, for Ji Changle, she is more like taking care of her sister, if she really has the opportunity, she also wants to see how Cheng Xuan in Changle's mouth is, after all, her vision is more accurate, and she sees people more sharply than Ji Changle.

After she saw it, she could rest assured that Ji Changle would get along with Lu Chengxuan.

——

The other end.

Soon after Chen Umbrella pretended to be angry and returned to his room, he quietly passed through his door, always looking at Ji Changle and Liu Manting, until they left, and then dared to go out and run to Guo Xiaoyi's room.

Originally, Chen Umbrella promised Guo Xiao to test Ji Changle, but he didn't want her to take the initiative yet, so Ji Changle and Liu Manting took the initiative to send it to the door.

When the broken step material was just taken out, Chen Umbrella recognized it at a glance!

That's Guo Xiaoyi's clothes!

The material was indeed bought from Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, and it was also through her hands, but at that time, Guo Xiao also saw it and felt that she liked it very much, so she took it, but fortunately, Chen Umbrella was witty, and when he saw it, he casually found an excuse to prevaricate the past, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be a mess.

It's just that Guo Xiao also wore that set of clothes, what did he do? Can he be caught by Lu Chengxuan and Ji Changle? Still asking around?

knocked on Guo Xiaoyi's door, and Chen Umbrella hurriedly walked in, "Xiaoyi, do you know?" ”

"Lu Chengxuan and Ji Changle are asking around in the embroidery room with the broken step material of your clothes, and they are looking for the owner of the material!"

Chen Umbrella was very puzzled, "What did you do that Lu Chengxuan got the handle?" ”

Guo Xiao couldn't help but tighten his face, "You mean, the material of my clothes?" ”

"Yes, it's the set you took from me!" Chen Umbrella nodded honestly, "I'm pretty sure it's yours, otherwise I wouldn't have come to talk to you." ”

Guo Xiao also sighed in his heart, and his expression became panicked.

When she went to look for Hao Caiyi that day, she accidentally scratched the skirt of the morning glory rack in the company's room.

It's a pity that it was dark at the time, and she didn't pay attention at all, waiting for the next few days when she was washing clothes, she found out, and it was too late to find it.

There has been a great change in the division room, Hao Caiyi was imprisoned in the Shen Criminal Division, and for a while, the division room was waiting for her, she had no chance, and when Guo Xiao also found the opportunity to go to the division room again, she was gone!
