Shou'an Palace has probably always been a place where women have pretended to be angry, so the place is not big, and there is no difference between the front and back yards, and there are only a few houses, which are built scattered in Lingling.

Each house is divided into several small rooms for different people to live in.

Strangely enough, the houses looked scattered, connected by a long corridor.

If Cheng jumps into the air, he will find that these grasshoppers who want to be bigger are forcibly tied together by a large rope.

The eunuchs of the Internal Affairs Office were panicked when they heard Zhuang Siyan's voice at this time, so they dragged people out of the room one by one.

After everyone gathered in the courtyard, Zhuang Siyan saw clearly that in addition to those concubines of the former emperor, there was another kind of people here.

are all those concubines' intimate palace maids or eunuchs.

These people were probably so faithful in the past that they would rather spend the rest of their lives with their masters in a place where they would not see the light of day, rather than go out to serve others.

They looked worse than the old concubines, they were only wearing single clothes in such a snowy day, and everything they could cover up on their bodies was given to the masters.

However, the masters are not as pleasant to them as outsiders imagine, and many people's eyes are cloudy, and they only know how to giggle when they look at people.

Zhou Liping had already brought someone over with clothes and quilts, and the large pile of garbage at the door had almost been transported away.

Standing in the yard for a long time, it can really freeze people into popsicles, so in one of the relatively clean rooms, the stove was propped up, and everyone was brought there.

After boiling hot tea, each of them divided a bowl and drank it first.

In this case, hot soup and hot tea are better than stoves, so after those people drink it, their eyes seem to be clearer.

Since Zhuang Siyan came out, he put away his previous temper, and his heart was filled with deep sadness.

But even so, it didn't stop her from observing everyone at the scene.

She roughly counted that there were nine more masters, and six servants, two of whom were men and four women.

One of the old maids stood behind everyone all the time.

Her eyes didn't look at anyone, as if none of the people in front of her were her master, only on the tips of her own toes.

But Zhuang Siyan noticed that her eyes were brighter than everyone else, and the expression in them clearly didn't look stupid.

It's a very strange phenomenon, these masters are not clear-headed, but the palace people are more useful than them.

At least in this case, they remain rational and faithful.

The room soon warmed up, and the warmth made the already unconscious masters even more lazy, as if they had forgotten that they were once also beauties of the country, and lay down on the ground, taking advantage of the newly brought thick clothes to sleep.

Zhuang Siyan wanted to get closer to see them, but Ling Tiancheng's wrist was holding her, and she was not allowed to take a step closer.

And he had already ordered people to go over, and he didn't do anything else, just lift the corners of those people's clothes to see the skin inside.

At this glance, Zhuang Siyan found something strange, although the stupid masters were wearing thick clothes, most of the meat on their bodies was frozen, and the places with chilblains looked extremely scary, and some of them had lice inside.

The servants, on the other hand, were dressed very thinly when they came, but their skin was relatively better.

When one of them saw someone lifting their clothes, he immediately said, as if he realized something, "We have to go to work every day and serve our masters, so we have exerted our strength, and our bodies are not so cold." ”

Zhuang Siyan looked at her, but saw the person standing in the corner before.

She was also looking at herself.

Her eyes were really too bright, she didn't want to be locked up here for a long time, and when she looked at Zhuang Siyan, that look was not good.

Zhuang Siyan was a little puzzled, where did he provoke her, but the woman suddenly separated the person in front of her and rushed towards Zhuang Siyan.

When the person arrived in front of her, he saw that she had half a pair of scissors hidden in her sleeve.

Ling Tiancheng's hand was very fast, and he instantly dragged Zhuang Siyan behind him, and kicked it out, hitting the wrist of the old palace man.

The scissors came out of her hand, made a not-so-circular arc in the air, and fell to the ground with a "dang" thud.

The people watching from the side were still shocked, and she had already pounced on Ling Tiancheng again.

By this time, Zhuang Siyan no longer knew whether her goal was herself or Ling Tiancheng.

Fortunately, there were a lot of palace people who came with them, and after Ling Tiancheng kicked her again, Li Fuzao took a group of eunuchs up and held her down.

These eunuchs have been in the palace for a long time, but they know where to exert their strength.

At this time, three times and five divided by two tied the person firmly, probably afraid that she would kill herself or something, and stuffed something in her mouth, and directly pressed it in front of Ling Tiancheng.

Ling Tiancheng was not busy interrogating her, but turned to look at Zhuang Siyan and asked, "Yan'er, how are you?" Is there anything I don't feel comfortable with? ”

Zhuang Siyan shook his head, looked at the person in front of him and asked, "What's the matter with her, why did she kill me?" ”

Ling Tiancheng: "He's not here to kill you, he's here to kill me." ”

Zhuang Siyan immediately asked, "Why?" ”

Ling Tiancheng replied without guilt: "Probably because she thought that everything here was caused by work, and her master was also killed by me." ”

Zhuang Siyan: "......"

Ling Tian's fruit was still powerful, he had seen everything Zhuang Siyan had seen when he came in, and it was more far-reaching than she thought.

The people in the Shou'an Palace have been reassigned, new people have been arranged to come in, and the Internal Affairs Office has sent everything inside, who is deducting half a pen, Ling Tiancheng will not spare them.

Then he sent the murderer to Xinzhiku.

It didn't take much effort to get all the news out.

This woman's name is Chunhua, and her master has long gone.

When Chunhua was young, she was sold to the palace to do rough work because her family was poor, and she occasionally met her master, and saw that she was clever in her work, so he asked her over and stayed by her side.

No one thought that the love of the master and servant in this half way was more reliable than those brought from the mother's house.

The first emperor died, Ling Tiancheng ascended the throne, and all the old concubines related to the struggle for power were basically given to death, and those that had nothing to do were placed here.

Chunhua came in voluntarily with her master, and at first she had some hope.

But fortunately, I soon found that this hope was redundant, because entering here is actually no different from going to the ghost gate.

In fact, judging from her age alone, she is not very old, only in her thirties, if it is placed in modern times, it is not an exaggeration to say that a woman in her thirties is in her prime.

But because she has been in that environment for a long time, with hatred, she has not eaten enough and is not warm, and she has been bullied, so her face looks like she is sixty years old.

Chunhua's face was full of tears, but there was no crying at all.

Her tears seemed to have no feelings, just casually stuffed into her eyes, and fell in strings when she moved.

She said: "......Shou'an Palace, it's a good place to listen to the name, I thought so at first, so when the master wanted to go in, I followed her in, but she didn't have Shou'an at all." ”

Her voice grew lower and lower, until it was almost in her throat, muttering only two notes.

Zhuang Siyan sat a little far away from her, and there were several layers of guards, eunuchs, and palace maids in the middle, in short, if Chunhua wanted to do it to her again, she didn't want to think about it.

In fact, according to Ling Tiancheng's meaning, he didn't want her to come, but Zhuang Siyan wanted to know how these things were going on, even if she could string together the general plot and still wanted the parties to say it, she also believed that Chunhua must want to pour out her grief and anger to others.

After a long while, she finally spoke again: "The eunuchs of the Internal Affairs Office, one counts as one, and they all come to bully us. Before the master entered the Shou'an Palace, they were out of reach, and once they entered that place, they became the target of their violence. They can't do anything, but they also do things that are more disgusting than beasts, but if anyone resists, they will have to add their fists and kicks, and they will have to detain the lunar eclipse. ”

She spoke very slowly, with a staccato passage, and sometimes when she spoke of sadness and anger, she would be stunned for a while.

Zhuang Siyan sat inside for more than two hours before listening to all her words.

The eunuchs were still very young at first, and the women of the main womb were still interested, but it was the same after many times.

The immediate effect of their loss of interest is that they no longer have to find excuses to withhold their food and clothes, and they can be detained openly.

In Chunhua's words, in the past two years, they have hardly worn the clothes sent from outside, and sometimes their bodies are torn.

Zhuang Siyan and the others saw them later, they were all taken from the people who died before.

When a person dies, or doesn't die, someone can't wait to rip off her clothes and protect themselves.

Chunhua's master died, and she had no scruples, but became the overlord inside.

Other palace people are not necessarily loyal to their masters, but most of them can't fight her.

But no matter what, she is only powerful in Shou'an Palace, and she has nothing to do with the outside, the Internal Affairs Office, which is only open for half a day every month.

There is not a day when Chunhua doesn't want to go out, in addition to getting out of such a life, she also wants to avenge her master.

The opportunity came from a year ago, when the Ministry of Internal Affairs opened the door again to send things inside, which were actually some spoiled bran rice, and some leftovers that the palace had to dispose of and throw away.

Even if they are not willing to throw these away, they can eat them quickly, and if they can't eat them, they will spread them out and dry them, and keep them for the rest of the day to eat slowly.

Among the people who gave them things that day, there was a new face, and Chunhua noticed it at once.

This new face came in differently from the others, he didn't scold them, and he didn't even have the slightest disgust or ridicule in his eyes, he just tried his best to put things down.

Chunhua also saw her help a stupid woman who was about to trip.

This shocked Chunhua and gave her some new hope.

So, the next month, before the new face arrived, she was ready.

As soon as the door of the half-day was opened, she used the cooperation of other people in the Shou'an Palace to surround the palace people who entered, and then quietly brought the new face open.

Zhuang Siyan already understood that this new face was the girl who died in the Internal Affairs Office.
