Walking in front of this almost one-person high water tank, Luo Qingluan looked through the gap, and the water tank was really empty.

She reached out and touched the crack, and then looked closely, the crack was obviously new, and it should have broken in the last few days. From a visible smash about a foot at the bottom, it seems that someone must have hit the tank with a heavy object, trying to break the tank, but it only caused a crack.

It is estimated that the effect is almost the same, anyway, this water tank is unable to store water, this person did not start again in the end, but still placed this water tank here, it is not easy for people to notice.

"What's the matter, Miss Luo, what's so nice about this water tank?" At this time, the voice of Concubine Rou came from behind him. Luo Qingluan turned her head to look, she looked at the water tank with some curiosity, but she didn't notice anything, but frowned with some disgust, and then stood a step away.

The palace maid beside her frowned and said, "Niangniang, this is the fish play lotus leaf tank of Yushu Palace, there are two in total, which are usually used to raise fish, and also store water to prevent fire." In the past, no one lived in Yushu Palace, and the slave remembered that there seemed to be no fish, but there should always be water storage, why did you find that it was broken today? ”

As he spoke, he looked at the one in the corner of the wall on the other side, walked in, and was immediately surprised: "Hey, Niangniang, Miss Luo, there is no water in this?" ”

Ruan Concubine suddenly said in a deep voice: "These minions are too disagreeable, no one lived in the past, is there no one living now?" Even this little thing will be missed, but I think it's usually too idle. ”

Originally, Luo Qingluan just accidentally discovered that this water tank looked very beautiful from a distance, with a dragon head ring shape at each end, which was very chic. Usually she has been here, and she didn't pay attention to it, this will probably be thinking that she is about to return to Xichu, and she has some emotion about the grass and trees here, so she paid attention to it.

But when she heard Luo Mei say this, she immediately sensed that something was wrong.

A large vat to prevent water walking, which is a must in every palace, is to strictly prevent accidents. Although the tank is large, it is actually not valuable, and no one will do anything to this thing, since it is usually full of water, and it has rained recently, so it will not suddenly be empty.

Thinking that he had just discovered that the rift was new, and that he had done it on purpose, Luo Qingluan felt more and more that he had noticed something.

Unless someone deliberately didn't want this tank to be able to store water, so they secretly broke it, and in order not to be noticed, the tank was not completely broken, at least this crack could not be seen from a distance, if it wasn't for careful, it wouldn't have thought that there was actually no water in this tank.

If one tank is broken, it may be a coincidence, but if both tanks are out of water, it is very wrong.

Before she had time to ask Cui'er to check whether the other tank was also broken, she had already knelt down in a panic: "Miss Luo, the slave maid only checked it last week, this water tank is good, there was still water in it at that time, and nothing happened at ordinary times, so the slave maid was negligent for a while, so she didn't notice that the water tank was broken......

"I don't blame you, get up!"

Luo Qingluan interrupted her and said, "Cui'er, you weren't responsible for this in the first place, how could I blame you." You get up first, go and fetch the man in charge of this tank, and I have someone to ask him." ”

"Yes, slave and maid will go." Cui'er wiped her tears, a trace of annoyance flashed on her delicate and immature little face, and she hurried away.

Seeing that Luo Qingluan was so cautious, Concubine Rou also sensed that something was wrong: "Miss Luo, is there something wrong with this water tank?" ”

"I'm not sure yet, but just ask."

Ruan Concubine's eyes moved, and she suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Could it be that Miss Luo thinks that someone from the Xia Palace did it?" ”

Rou Guifei gasped: "Won't it?" She is still so bold that she doesn't want to live? ”

Breaking the water tank that drained the water is clearly trying to set fire to the house. This is the Jade Shu Palace, the real Queen's Palace, which has extraordinary significance, she doesn't believe that Bai Yixuan has such courage.

But Luo Qingluan didn't think so, she knew Bai Yixuan, since it had reached the point where Han Xun could not be recovered, then Bai Yixuan would do everything, this is a crazy woman. Not only to others, but also to yourself.

In a moment, a middle-aged eunuch came, although he looked very respectful, but his eyes were a little evasive, a pair of slender eyes looked very shrewd, and the flattering smile on his face was a little exaggerated.

As soon as he approached, the eunuch saluted respectfully and said, "Slave Zhang Quan, I have seen Miss Luo, Guifei Niangniang, and Concubine Ruan." I don't know what happened to Miss Luo looking for a minion? Please also command. ”

"Our girl asks you, why are these two water tanks broken?" Cui'er said immediately, looking indignant.

She was so shocked that the girl was so good to her, but she was derelict in her duty, and this little thing was not done well. If she really went to the water and burned the entire Yushu Palace, then she would not be able to atone for her sins even if she died.

Zhang Quan's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said: "Miss Luo, the villain is really careless, these two water tanks are placed here all the year round, and they are usually useless, and few people care about them." I don't want it to be broken, it's really the villain's negligence, and the villain will immediately go to replace it with a new one......"

"No need!"

"Ah......h

Zhang Quan was stunned, not knowing what Luo Qingluan meant.

Could it be that she came to herself on purpose, just to ask, and nothing else? He was shocked.

With a faint smile, Luo Qingluan looked at Zhang Quan: "I don't know how much moon silver Zhang Gong has when he is fair?" ”

I couldn't figure out why Luo Qingluan would ask this, this was not what she should care about. Zhang Quan was stunned again, and said: "Miss Luo is laughing, the villain is a minion, and the moon silver is not enough to mention, how can it be worth worrying about the girl." ”

"Miss Luo asked you to say, you just said, nonsense!"

At this time, Concubine Rou also saw that something was wrong, a slave like Zhang Quan, at most, was a small manager of Yushu Palace, and it was normal to detain the little eunuch and show off his might, and for people like him, there were not a thousand but eight hundred in the harem.

But Luo Qingluan actually grabbed such a trivial matter to ask, and it is conceivable that there must be a reason.

"Yes, yes!" was reprimanded by Concubine Rou, Zhang Quan's heart beat hard, and he immediately said: "The villain's monthly silver is one or two or five dollars, if you do well and nothing goes wrong, there will be a reward of two taels on the top, but it will not be there until the end of the year." ”

"That father-in-law also has twenty taels of silver a year, which is not bad."

Luo Qingluan smiled very gently: "When did Gonggong Zhang enter the palace, and how many years have you been there?" ”

Feeling more and more strange, Zhang Quan didn't dare to lie at all, and said it one by one. Luo Qingluan said with a smile: "So, Gonggong Zhang has been in Yushu Palace for five years, or has he only had more moon silver in the past two years, counting it, excluding expenses, he doesn't save much now, no more than one hundred taels?" ”

"Yes, yes, girl Mingjian, the villain is a minion, how dare you think of anything else." Zhang Quan almost knelt on the ground, nodding like pounding garlic.

From Luo Qingluan's inquiry, he already felt something, this Luo girl was simply caught off guard, and he was not allowed to deny and lie, even if he wanted to go back to do something, it was too late.

"Since Grandpa Zhang has said it, then Cui'er, you take someone to Grandpa Zhang's house to see how much silver Grandpa Zhang has......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Quan had already screamed and kept kowtowing: "The girl spares her life, the slave is wrong, the slave is wrong." The slave eats lard and is blinded, he shouldn't deceive the girl, the girl spares her life......"

finally knew that Luo Qingluan was suspicious of him, although he didn't know if it was a coincidence or a certainty, but Zhang Quan didn't dare to bet. As long as you send someone to search, you will know that he can't deny it at all. He said that he only had savings of a hundred taels of silver, but in fact, his money was much more than that.

Concubine Rou and Concubine Ruan on the side were puzzled, this Zhang Quan was obviously called to ask about the water tank, why did it become a problem now? What the hell is going on?

"Miss Luo, ...... are you" Concubine Rou frowned and said, "Is there a problem with this minion?" ”

Ruan Concubine didn't ask, and stared at Luo Qingluan, wanting to hear how she explained.

Regardless of whether Zhang Quan begged for mercy or not, Luo Qingluan only asked Cui'er to take someone to his room to search, and when she came back, Cui'er took a blue-skinned bag, which was heavy, and spread it on the ground to see, there were not only scattered silver, but also some worthless silver hairpins and beads. But the most surprising thing was that there was still an ingot of fifty taels of gold.

Gold cannot be equal to silver, a eunuch like Zhang Quan is impossible to get it in normal times, and even if he encounters a reward, it is absolutely impossible to have gold to reward. Moreover, a gold ingot of fifty taels is almost equal to five hundred taels of silver, which is almost impossible for a eunuch.

Cui'er said, "Girl, these are what we found in his house. ”

Concubine Rou sneered: "Zhang Quan, you are a chief eunuch, how can you have so many things?" Where did these things come from, and they still don't confess honestly? ”

"You don't have to confess to understand." Luo Qingluan seemed to have expected it a long time ago, but after it was really proven, he was even more relieved: "Let me ask you, is it Anxin girl who gave you these gold?" ”

Zhang Quan immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, Miss Luo Mingjian, it was indeed given by Miss Anxin." He asked the minions to break the two water tanks, but not to be seen, and he didn't say anything else, and the minions thought it was a trivial matter, so ...... So when I was dizzy, I agreed to her. ”

"Peace of mind?" Concubine Rou seemed to remember something, and a gleam flashed in her eyes: "Isn't she the personal palace maid of the queen's mother?" Could it be ...... It was the queen who wanted to break the water tank, and then ......"

Needless to say, the water tank is broken, and naturally it can't store water, and now it's early autumn, and it's the time when the weather is dry and dry.

Thinking of this, Concubine Rou and Concubine Ruan's faces changed greatly: "It turns out that she still has no intention of dying!" ”

If you want Bai Yixuan to die, it's not that simple. But for Luo Qingluan, this is what she has been waiting for. Maybe Bai Yixuan also has a source and knows that she is about to leave, so she jumped over the wall in a hurry, wanting to make a ruthless one, it is best to burn her here directly, and she will never go back.

The conspiracy that is already known is not a conspiracy, Luo Qingluan smiled slightly.
