Hongluan glanced at Xing'er: "You are injured and lie on the spring bench, think about what you have to say to me." ”

Xing'er could tell that it was the palace maid beside Hongluan, who was sent by the masters of the palace; She lowered her head and whispered, "It's better to let the slave and maid kneel, my lord." ”

Hongluan glanced at her appreciatively: "You are very clever. Then he raised his voice and said, "Is it Madoka?" Come on in. ”

Xing'er took a few steps back to her knees and knelt down, although the injury was extremely painful during the movement, but she didn't think it was a little pain.

Xiao Yuan came in and saw Xing'er's eyes flashing, and she said to Hongluan: "I asked the people in the courtyard, and Aunt Da Niu was called away by Concubine Li's people." ”

Hongluan thought for a while: "Because of things? ”

"I don't know." Xiao Yuan lowered his head: "The palace slaves in the courtyard don't know which palace people they came to, I guessed it based on the color of the people who came." ”

Hongluan really couldn't guess that Concubine Li would call the girl to do it.

Seeing that Hongluan was still sitting, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but speak softly: "Sister, you haven't thanked Concubine Li." ”

Hongluan patted Xiaoyuan lightly: "You are very good, we will go to thank the concubine in a while; She looked at Xing'er and said, "You go to the concubine now, and ask the concubine for peace on my behalf; Come back soon. ”

Of course, Xiaoyuan understood what Hongluan meant, and she hurriedly gave a salute and left: she wanted to go to see Concubine Rou quickly, not because the eldest girl went to Concubine Li, but because there were too many things to say to Concubine Rou; Of course, she also has to talk about the big girl.

After Hongluan saw Xiaoyuan leave, he immediately called in two palace maids, who were sent by Liang Concubine and others, one was named Cuiyu and the other was named Lanxiang; Tell them to call Cui, Mei and Chunhua.

Apricot knew it was time for her to speak after the two of them left, and after a quiet reflection just now, she understood one thing: as long as she could prove that the more useful she was, the more promising she would be; Even if it is impossible to be a palace maid in the future.

After thinking about it, she spoke more coherently and clearly. It turned out that when the summer was approaching, the insects were extinct until the autumn, and they did not do anything other than to remove insects and catch birds; Other times, it's mainly about catching birds.

This work is not easy to say, like insects: some need to be caught during the day, such as cicadas; And some insects need to be caught at night, such as textile girls.

Insects and birds are still living creatures, and the insects in summer are not like you will never have insects here after catching one place, nor will there be tomorrow after catching them today; And not all nobles require that they can't hear insects every day: sometimes nobles can't have any insect chirps, but sometimes nobles like insects and birds; So, it all depends on the mood of the nobles.

The noble lady likes insects and birds to chirp today, and maybe the palace slaves will catch some insects and birds and put them in her yard and its surroundings; And the next moment: maybe just put the insects and birds for a moment, maybe an hour or two, maybe a day or two, no one knows the exact time of this fall - anyway, the nobleman doesn't like the insects and birds, so the palace slave will immediately give the nobleman a quiet place.

This kind of repetition can easily make the palace slaves need dozens of people when they are busy, and they may not need one when they are not busy; Fortunately, the nobles in the palace are not often in a mood - it should be said that they will not show ups and downs, so the palace slaves under the Mei Palace maid are not so busy every day.

After listening to this, Hongluan finally understood that Cui and Mei had more people on their hands, and finally knew that they had done something wrong.

Xing'er looked at Hongluan, she didn't say that Hongluan did something wrong, she just needed to say what she knew: "Auntie, Xu Nushi has received the kindness of the flower wicked, and Xu Nushi regards herself as a slave in front of the flower villain." Seeing that Hongluan's expression remained unchanged, she boldly lowered her voice and said, "Also, Yang Diangong is the sister of the eunuch who is the evil man." ”

Flowers bloom and there are eunuchs on the opposite side? Hongluan really wanted to grab Xiaoyuan and ask her, but there were still many things she hadn't told herself; She nodded lightly: "That eunuch, rank?" ”

"He's dead." Xing'er's voice couldn't be lower: "No one mentions him anymore, it seems that he was a little taboo when he made mistakes; I heard that the flower villain was only involved in order to help him get rid of his crime, so Yang Diangong was very good to the flower villain. She paused slightly: "Yang Diangong didn't get involved in her brother's affairs back then, but because her brother died, she was soon demoted from a priest to a female historian due to her mistake, and later she was promoted to a pawn because of her merits." ”

Hongluan nodded lightly: "Xing'er, you are indeed useful; Let's go down and recuperate first, and then come to my room to be on duty when healed. She suddenly smiled again when she said this: "You don't think that I am going to be calculated to succeed again, so you will turn against you on the spot, right?" No mistakes, not a lot of words"

Xing'er's face turned pale: "Don't dare." The slave and maid know that the death of the wicked person is related to the slave and the maid, and many people hate the slave and the maid very much, and now only the adults in the palace can survive here; If you don't cling to the adult, the slave will soon die silently. ”

"Hmm." Hongluan waved his hand: "I am not wrong about you, you are indeed a little clever person; But don't do that kind of clever but clever mistake, otherwise I won't be able to save you; No one in the world can save you. ”

"Yes, the slave knows." After kowtowing, Xing'er got up with difficulty and climbed onto the spring stool, and was carried back.

If there is a choice, of course Xing'er is not willing to be tied to Hongluan, who has no foundation at all; But from the moment she was chosen by the flowers, she was destined for today.

Hongluan paced slowly in the house, sending Xiaoyuan out to see if Concubine Rou knew or if she had seen through it - she didn't know if she would be tricked, because she was originally just a naïve little girl, and later she was just a little beggar, and her time in the palace was too short and she knew too little to be calculated.

Concubine Rou is not her, she should have seen through it a long time ago; Even if she didn't know before, she knew about Madoka this time; What will she do next?

Concubine Li doesn't need her to be tempted, she is calculated and Concubine Li is more or less inseparable; And noble people such as good concubines and quiet concubines are characters in this matter? And those people in the Shangqin Bureau, and they played a role in this matter?

Except for a concubine, Hongluan couldn't be sure who the enemy was; And even if Concubine Li is confirmed, how can she take a dignified concubine with her little female history.

She raised her head slightly: Cui, Mei and Chunhua haven't arrived yet, even if they don't come to spread the word, the palace maids should come back; Also, at this time, the big girl was called away by Concubine Li, and it will be because?

Time passed bit by bit, and Hongluan felt like an ant that had been half-cooked on an iron pot, although he was still alive, but being alive was torment.

Chapter 118: Three hundred taels

Hongluan couldn't count how many steps he paced in the house, but he couldn't wait for anyone; So he sent Erya and Zhao Di to look for someone.

Originally, she didn't call Erya and Zhaodi directly, because she was afraid of things, and there were people who were called to her by the nobles of each palace, and she really didn't give the nobles face if she didn't use it.

But Erya and Zhao Di also disappeared without news, although Hongluan told them to come back as soon as the word arrived, and not to delay for anything, but they were still nowhere to be found.

Less than half an hour had passed, and Hongluan knew that he couldn't wait any longer.

She wanted to step out of the door, and at the same time knew that there must be one or two competent people around her, otherwise she couldn't run everything alone at an emergency, right? There are many mistakes, she is not a palace slave or a palace maid now, she is a female history.

Everything can only be done by herself, and she can move her legs, which will make people despise three points; If it continues to be like this after a long time, it is not just contemptible; has not become a laughing stock yet, but I am afraid that the palace maids under my command will think of another - I don't know if the masters of each palace sent people over, whether it was already in the calculations of Li Guifei and others, so after calling the big girl away, she became a loner.

Hongluan can't be sure, but now she can only go out to find someone by herself; When she saw Xiao Shunzi and Xiao Pingzi, she called the two of them, and ordered four palace slaves to follow.

She doesn't expect the palace slave to do things, because the palace slave is too timid to be useful, just like Erya and Zhao Di: usually a word is okay, but when it comes to things - such as the time when they were asked to beat people, they were scared and fell down first.

The two little eunuchs were given by Rong Concubine, of course Hongluan couldn't talk about trust, and they were only used as a façade; If something really happened, Hongluan really didn't expect them to be able to use it.

The matter has come to an end, but Hongluan can only sigh when he looks at the people around him, there is no one available; She herself was a little discouraged: she had to accept a few of her own people as soon as possible.

Hongluan thought carefully and decided to go to find the palace maid Cui, and as soon as he walked around the corner, he heard a commotion from the palace slave behind him, and couldn't help but look back and found that they were all looking south; Following their gaze, she saw two stumbling men approaching in the distance.

It seems to be Erya and Zhaodi? Hongluan frowned slightly, how could he look as if he was injured.

She instructed the palace slave behind her, "Go and see." ”

Immediately, two people greeted him, and after a while, they helped someone over, and sure enough, it was Erya and Zhao Di; It's just that the clothes of the two people are torn and bloody, their hair is scattered, there are slightly red and swollen palm prints on their faces, and the corners of their mouths are broken and bloodshot is flowing out.

When the two of them came near, they knelt on the ground, but they didn't even cry except kowtow. It is because of this that it arouses more pain and anger in Hongluan's heart: palace slaves are not allowed to cry, even if they are beaten, they can't cry.

Of course, the two people were extremely aggrieved when they were beaten, because they were not bold and would never dare to provoke right and wrong; But when he came back after being beaten, he didn't do a good job, and he had to face Hongluan's anger: at least Erya and the two of them thought so, they were extremely afraid and painful, but they still didn't dare to shed a tear.

Hongluan didn't let them get up, and stepped forward and pulled up Zhao Di's sleeves, which were covered with purple bruises, large and small, and looked like they were smoked with a feather duster, and some people pinched and twisted them.

The scars on the arms of the two people had changed their faces greatly, but the injuries on their hands made everyone gasp: their fingers were dripping with blood, and a closer look revealed that their nails and fingers were pierced with needles, and now they were bleeding outward.

"What's going on?" Hongluan put down Zhao Di's arm and asked in a deep voice.

Erya and Zhaodi only knew how to kowtow and ask for sin, and they couldn't say a single word.

Hongluan was angry and painful, and when he saw that they were so angry, he really wanted to kick over, and immediately stomped his feet fiercely: "If you still want to live, think about what you should do, you are not stupid people who can live until now." After she finished speaking, she stopped looking at them, and led the people to hurry away in the direction where the two of them came.

Go to Chunhua first, I'm afraid that Cui and Mei will be there with her.

Erya and Zhao Di glanced at each other, bowed their heads and knelt for a long time, suddenly Erya got up, Zhao Di also followed, and the two of them hurriedly chased after Hongluan: they were cheap, in the eyes of many people, their life and death did not count at all, but in the eyes of Hongluan, they were different, they were human in the eyes of Hongluan.

I really want to live until I have the life to leave the palace, and now the only hope is in Hongluan; They did not want to keep them alive when they tortured them in this way: for they would not leave themselves in trouble, and would surely get rid of those who might take revenge on them afterwards.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Hongluan slowed down.

"Lady Shi, the three aunts are all with Aunt Chunhua." Erya caught up and opened her mouth.

Just like Hongluan said, she and Zhao Di are not stupid people who have survived until now, and since they have made a decision, they know that they should say it first.

Hongluan nodded lightly: "What's the matter with your injuries?" I'm just asking you to send a message. ”

"It's all ...... blame," Erya replied casually, but after saying two words, she coughed: "Lord Nushi, before the slaves and maids entered the door, they were instructed to take the handle, take the long-necked flask, and hand it to the person standing on the chair; When the slave took the bottle and handed it to the man, she saw that the man's hand was firmly caught before she let go, but she didn't want the man to suddenly let go, and the bottle fell to the ground and shattered. ”

"Aunt Cui said that it was given by the concubine, and asked the slave and maid if she had intentions, no matter how the slave and maid said it, she beat the slave and maid, and used needles to force the slave and maid to ask what the slave's intentions were." Erya frowned in pain: "The slave and maid naturally couldn't say it if they didn't have the heart, and in the end, the aunts let the slave and maid go, and the slave and maid were thrown out without letting the slave and maid speak." ”

After hearing this, Hongluan looked at Zhao Di: "What about you?" Also smashed the bottle given by the concubine? ”

Zhao Di shook her head: "No, after the slave and the maid went to move the table and put it away, the man asked the slave and maid to help the small embroidered screen on the table, but the slave maid's hand just touched the embroidered screen, and the embroidered screen fell on the table and broke." ”

Her voice lowered: "The slave and the second maid were beaten almost at the same time, and when the slave and maid were thrown out, the aunts said that they would let the slaves and maids prepare three hundred taels of silver to pay two things, otherwise they would go to the concubine Niangniang to ask for death for their sins." ”

Hongluan thought of the two palace maids who had been used before: "Have you ever met the two of Cuiyu?" If they are also beaten, they really have to "discuss" with the three of Cui Gongnu.
