By the time Yun Lan came, Luo Ge had already selected the books she wanted to read today, and was waiting for her on the chaise longue in the Linhua Palace.

"The slave has seen the mother."

Luo Ge didn't let her kneel, but directly beckoned her to the front, and said in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "Do you know who is the inner servant Qianle who came to the Huadian to ask that day?" ”

"Back to Niangniang, this person Han Yu has gone to investigate before. That man was Wang Fuhai's apprentice, and he was a fellow villager, because Wang Fuhai took pity on him and took him into the palace. Now he is a fifth-class chamberlain in the palace, mainly responsible for all kinds of cleaning work. ”

"Then Han Yu can check why Qianle has a relationship with Mrs. Qiu?"

"This specific Han Yu has not been found yet, but now it has been determined that he is the person who matched the gap between Lady Qiu and the queen."

Luo Ge pondered for a moment and said, "Find a way to invite the king's servants." Before that, I would like to ask the king to come to the Linhua Palace. ”

Before Luo Ge's words fell, Mu Ziqin entered the Linhua Palace.

Luo Ge got up and said, "The palace hasn't found anyone to invite the king, how did the king arrive?" ”

Mu Ziqin entered the house with a smile and said, "Last night, Gu asked Yun Lan to arrange a good person, as long as you wake up, you will notify Gu." That's why I came back so quickly. ”

"Then the king has nothing important to discuss today?"

Mu Ziqin smiled and said, "Something important? It was solved yesterday. Today is nothing more than writing a review of the book. Later, I will accompany the queen mother to visit this summer resort. She couldn't sleep all nights today. ”

"Why can't you sleep peacefully? But it's too hot at night? ”

Mu Ziqin shook his head and said, "This summer resort was originally built in a cool and ventilated place in summer, and in order to make the queen mother not so hot, I also specially ordered someone to put ice cubes to cool off the heat, but it still didn't work." ”

"That's ...... Sick? Luo Ge said a little hesitantly, but according to his words, Luo Ge already roughly knew what the situation of the Queen Mother was.

"Hmm." Mu Ziqin nodded, "Master showed it to the Queen Mother yesterday. Said I should spend more time with her. Don't go against her mind too much. ”

"Then you can accompany the Queen Mother well."

After the matter on the Queen Mother's side was finished, Mu Ziqin asked, "You said that you want someone to invite me." For what? ”

"Didn't I suspect that An Wanqiu and Su Qingyu were colluding in private? So I arranged for someone to spy on them, but I didn't expect a new development this time. Han Yu found a very key person on his side, and he was the key person in the matchmaking between the two. This is a man that we didn't expect. ”

"Tell me about it."

"He is Wang Fuhai's apprentice - Qianle. A fifth-class chamberlain commonly used in the chamber. ”

"I know the man you're talking about." Mu Ziqin smiled when he heard the name, and he said: "This person originally planned to come to me to pick up Wang Fuhai's class, but he didn't expect that he would go wrong on the first day of duty with hundreds of officials from various prefectures who were going to come to the audience. Although I didn't say anything, according to the rules, he never came to the front of the palace. ”

"Do you know anything about this person?"

Mu Ziqin shook his head and said, "He and I have a one-sided relationship, and Wang Fuhai never mentions this person in front of me." So it's not familiar at all. ”

After Luo Ge heard this, he immediately asked Yun Lan, who was standing outside the hall to wait, to invite Wang Fuhai to come.

"Did you let Wang Fuhai come just for the sake of Qianle?"

Luo Ge looked at Mu Ziqin, who was nervous on her side, she smiled and said, "You don't have to be so nervous. I just want to make sure that Wang Fuhai is involved, and if he does, then we will be in great trouble. If not, then you just need to find out what is the relationship between Qianle and An Wanqiu? ”

"Wang Fuhai, you don't have to ask. I'm sure he can't have anything to do with either of them. Mu Ziqin said very definitely, "After all, he is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, he has been in the palace since his grandfather was still in the palace, and he has served in front of the palace for forty years." From the age of ten to the present, there are also people who are fifty years old. If he had a different heart, he would have had a problem a long time ago, so why wait until he returned to his hometown? ”

"But be careful to make the Ten Thousand Year Ship." Luo Ge still didn't agree with Mu Ziqin's certainty.

"That's fine." Mu Ziqin saw that she could only give up, "You ask." ”

Luo Ge was still thinking about how to ask Wang Fuhai this time, but he didn't notice Mu Ziqin's emotions.

Wang Fuhai came every moment. In his fifties, he didn't come as fast as he used to, and his movements were a little sluggish. By the time he arrived and knelt down with His Highness, he was already panting.

"The old slave has seen the king, Concubine De."

"Get up. Bestow the seat. Luo Ge opened his mouth first, completely ignoring Mu Ziqin's emotions.

"Thank you, Niangniang."

Wang Fuhai sat down, and Luo Ge immediately spoke: "How many years has the king been in the palace?" ”

"It's been forty years since I returned to my mother's words. The king is also the third lord of the old slave's service. Wang Fuhai was full of pride when he said this.

"Then when will the king's chamberlain return to his hometown?"

"If you go back to your mother, when the Spring Festival is over next year, the old slave will be able to return to her hometown."

"What are the king's chamberlains? Where do you go after leaving the palace? ”

"The old slave took a fancy to a few thin plots of land in his hometown, and planned to buy those thin plots of land after leaving the palace, and live a day of idle clouds and wild cranes, farming and watching the sunset."

"Then there are still people in the palace of the king's chamberlain?"

"Back to Niangniang, the old slave still has a little fellow villager in the palace. Because his parents died at an early age, his family's property was encroached upon by his clansmen. I saw that he was pitiful, so I let him enter the palace. He called me a master. This kid is smart, but he's too timid. His name is Qianle. ”

"Then this Qianle can serve in front of the king's palace?"

"Back to Niangniang's words, this child is blessed, and the first time he was on an errand in front of the king, he messed things up, so there was no chance to be an errand. It's been almost three years since I entered the palace, and I'm still coming out of the ranks of the fifth-class chamberlain. ”

"The king's servants are all old men in the palace, why don't you mention your apprentice more? Wouldn't that allow him to stand firm in the palace faster? When you leave the palace, he will be easily bullied. ”

Luo Ge's words provoked Wang Fuhai to laugh for a while, and he said: "This is just that the mother is too worried." Although Qianle is a child who does not have the ability to do things in front of the king, he can find a way to live in the palace himself. So the old slave is not worried. This may be a benefit to him, as long as he doesn't fight or grab, he can spend this life in peace, find a suitable person to eat, and when he is about the same age, he will go out of the palace like an old slave and enjoy his old age in peace. ”

"Then how much do you know about Qianle?"

As soon as Luo Ge said this, Wang Fuhai understood Luo Ge's ultimate purpose, and he didn't expose it, and said directly: "Although this kid is smart, he is timid. He never liked to do risky things. Not to mention that the old slave served for every imperial service he could arrange. He'll find a way to push it off. The old slave often said that he had no pursuits, and he was happy for me to say this about him. After all, according to his own words, he still hopes to live a mediocre life. ”

"Then he is still familiar with the terrain in the palace? I heard that because he was lost before, he delayed the king's hundred officials. ”

"Back to Niangniang, he has only recognized the terrain in the palace for more than a month, this child doesn't know why, and he can't remember the way. He memorized the roads in every palace, but he still couldn't remember them. So it took a long time to memorize all the routes and palace locations in the palace. ”

"I see." Luo Ge nodded, "By the way, the king has served you to take care of the king for many years, and the king wants to arrange for you to live in the eastern capital." ”

Wang Fuhai was shocked, he turned his head to look at Mu Ziqin, but found that Mu Ziqin had always maintained the same face, not surprised, unhappy, or even without any slight fluctuations.

"You don't have to look at the king, this matter is discussed between the palace and the king. The king originally wanted you to return to your hometown, but the palace felt that your hometown was remote, and no one could take care of you if you encountered any illness, so he still planned to let you stay in the eastern capital. The main palace thought that there was originally a house in the suburbs of the eastern capital, and it was not big. It was originally the residence of Lord Wang, who had been assigned, and the size was moderate in the eastern capital. Therefore, this palace said on the Internet, give you a house to retire in the future, and the original slaves in this house will also be rewarded to you. If you are not satisfied, it is up to you to buy or change a batch. The money for the replacement of slaves was to be paid by the public. ”

Wang Fuhai knelt down with a puff and said gratefully: "How can the old slave stand the king's love? The old slave felt that it was better to return to his hometown. ”

Luo Ge immediately rejected his words and said, "How can it be, I have said that I will leave you in the palace and send a slave to take care of you, you have been paying for the royal family for forty years, then I must thank you well." So, don't shirk it, you don't have to leave the Eastern Capital after the Spring Festival next year. Just stay in the Eastern Capital. ”

"But the mother ......"

"Needless to say. The king agreed, and so it was decided. Luo Ge said as he tugged at the corner of his clothes.

Mu Ziqin had nothing to say, feeling the strength on the corner of his clothes, he could only sigh, and then pushed up a smile and said, "Concubine De has already said it, Gu has already arranged your residence." I remember that you have also seen the courtyard, and at that time you were still boasting about the chic construction of the yard with the orphan. Why is it that it is given to you now, and you do not want it? ”

Wang Fuhai kept kowtowing gratefully and said, "Such a great favor, the old slave really doesn't know how to thank the king." After all, it is the duty of the old slave to do his best for the king. ”

"For so many years, you have been serving in front of the palace, helping Grandpa Wang, Father and I to make a lot of decisions, in addition to many ideas, but also to avoid a lot of trouble. This thank-you gift is as it should be. Don't say no again. You just take care of your subordinates, and when the time comes, you will shoot a few more capable people to take care of you. If there are big or small things, just come to the palace to report back. ”
