"How can the old slave know so much about the personnel of the East Palace! It was he who thought of it, I just asked him to look for an opportunity, and there was no time limit, and it was only when he gave me a return afterwards that I realized that he had planned so carefully. ”

"How old is that eunuch entrusted by my father-in-law this year?"

Sun Qingyang asked this because as far as she knew, there were no very old eunuchs in the East Palace Prince's Mansion.

"Thirteen." As soon as he finished answering, Wang Gonggong frowned, "Miss Sun, I remembered your question, although that kid is still clever on weekdays, it is not difficult for him to find an opportunity to make a trip for you, but if he thinks so much before and after, even if you want to have a supper at night, he doesn't have that ability." ”

He told his father-in-law that he was looking for Xiao's sister-in-law in the big kitchen, but as far as I know, what was eaten in the house that night was steamed buns, and it was the original stove girl in the big kitchen who made the buns, Jiamo, she used to be the big girl in front of Wang Liangyuan, and she was framed before she was relegated to the big kitchen to do things, and Xiao's sister-in-law's daughter Fuguo, and the comfrey who framed Jiamo, also framed the Fuzhi in my yard. Does my father-in-law have any thoughts after hearing this? ”

Hearing Sun Qingyang's twisted words, He Jiayu was stunned, the matter here is so complicated!

Wang Gonggong asked softly, "What does Miss Sun want to explain?" ”

Sun Qingyang shook his head, "I just think it's a little weird, since the buns weren't made by sister-in-law Xiao, why did Xiao Chenzi pretend to be in her name?" The father-in-law has to think about it again, Qingyang is young, and the things in this palace are inextricably linked, and they are unreasonable. ”

When the princess heard her say this, he also felt that his expectations were too high, after all, she was an eight or nine-year-old girl, even if she was smarter and articulate than other children, it was impossible to see the joints in it.

But there was also Princess Xianning present, even if he had the heart to protect the little eunuch, he didn't dare, because she was a young girl, the princess was favored since she was a child, and she was personally brought by the emperor and Queen Xu, and she was influenced by these two, and there are probably not many things in this palace that she can't understand.

At the moment, he replied seriously to Princess Xianning, "According to the old slave's thoughts, it is nothing more than two reasons, first, he said the truth, but he didn't know that he was cooking that night, and second, he said a lie, and the reason for telling a lie is that there are other people behind him, and second, he has colluded with other people in the prince's mansion, and wants to take advantage of this matter to get rid of Miss Sun by the way." Now that he thinks about it, how could he take the liberty of entrusting this matter to that sister-in-law Xiao? Isn't he afraid that the other party will denounce him, when he says this, he obviously knows that Xiao's sister-in-law's daughter has a holiday with Miss Sun, and uses the other party as a shield. ”

The implication is that it has been affirmed that the eunuch Xiao Chenzi has told a lie.

While Wang An was determined to speak, he had already regarded Xiao Chenzi as an outcast, after all, there were other people available in the East Palace, and if he blindly protected him, the princess would suspect that Xiao Chenzi and him were not simply a master-apprentice relationship, but his eyes and ears buried in the East Palace, it would be very bad.

Princess Xianning also nodded, "Judging from various clues, this matter is indeed the case, but is he doing things for other people, or is he colluding with other people in the Prince's Mansion?" ”

Sun Qingyang interjected: "Is it possible that he is doing things for other people and colluding with other people in the house?" ”

"Qing Yang can say this?" Princess Xianning knew that Sun Qingyang was not a person who was climbing for no reason, and she must have a deep meaning when she said this.

Sun Qingyang told everyone about Jiamo being framed by Zicao that Fuzhi said, and then said: "Although there is a possibility that the steward may be absent from the time, judging from the fact that he helped Zicao frame Jiamo, this person is scheming, if there is no involvement, why did Xiao Chenzi only entrust Xiao's sister-in-law?" If it's a coincidence, that's too much of a coincidence! I suspect that this matter was the handiwork of that Steward Chen, who used Xiao's sister-in-law as a smoke bomb to wash him and the comfrey. ”

The prince listened to Sun Qingyang's words, and hurriedly said: "The old slave remembers that Xiao Chenzi has a relative in the prince's mansion, and he asked the old slave to help transfer him to the East Palace, and he said that there was an uncle who was also there, and he went to take care of each other. ”

Sun Qingyang nodded: "The news of the prince has confirmed Qingyang's speculation, it's not good, both of them are on an errand for the person behind the scenes, but I don't know, the person behind the scenes and the person who set fire to the concubine's house that night are not alone?" ”

Because the assassination and injury of the emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Zhanji was hidden from the outside, they only said that the crown princess was in the fine house that night, and even Sun Qingyang's injured mother-in-law was brave enough to save the princess's injuries.

Anyway, the woman is seriously injured and has not been able to speak so far, and she can't live to see it, but the money she gives her family is more abundant, so she doesn't have to worry about being leaked.

The others, except for Mama Yu, who is in charge of the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law in the palace in Zhaoyang Palace, can't tell the difference between those rough mothers-in-law who are on errands in that courtyard.

As for the other mother-in-law who went to Linggu Zen Temple to serve Sun Qingyang with that mother-in-law that day, because she inhaled too much smoke, she choked her throat and became dumb. The dumb woman didn't recognize a single big character, and she was transferred to Zhaoyang Hall as an errand afterwards, and the monthly price rose by half, and it was impossible to leak a little rumor.

"It's very likely." Princess Xianning listened to what the two said, and frowned slightly: "Except for the princess and sister-in-law, no one sent buns, and tung oil was used to set fire on both sides, obviously to make the fire start quickly, so a large amount of tung oil is not something that anyone can get." ”

In fact, that night, the crown princess was in the house, and the fire was fired from the outside with a rocket, but the tail of the rocket was coated with tung oil, and when it hit the courtyard, it splashed everywhere, so the fire was bigger.

Yuan Weiwei, who had been listening to the side and did not speak, said: "Yuanwei has an idea, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" ”

Princess Xianning looked at her coldly, "Speak." ”

"After listening to Sister Sun and Wang Gonggong talk about the causes and consequences just now, Wei Wei thought, is it possible that Xiao Chenzi and Steward Chen are actually just helping the people behind the scenes to make it convenient, after all, according to their identities, it should be impossible to have access to such a high level of confidentiality, but because Steward Chen and Sister Sun have personal grudges, so they took the opportunity to start, and it is precisely for this reason that everyone in the house where Sister Sun is located has eaten steamed buns, but the princess has no steamed buns to send over?"

He Jiayu almost hated Yuan Yuwei in her heart, and when she heard her words, she snorted coldly, "Did Sister Yuan think that there are all adults in the courtyard of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and the people who serve her from Her Royal Highness are not easy to fool, so they don't use buns, so as not to alarm but bad things?" ”

He Jiayu's analysis is also very reasonable, but Yuan Yuwei smiled lightly, "What Sister He said, on the surface, this is also a statement, but if this is the case, Sister Sun's courtyard is full of little girls, and the maids and daughters-in-law can't take it seriously, and it's not worth being ruthless, a fire is burned, and they don't necessarily have to run out, so why bother spending so much time, and they are drugged and set on fire?" ”

Sun Qingyang listened to it, and sighed in his heart, everyone said that he was smart, but after listening to Yuan Yuwei's careful analysis, he saw Princess Xianning's look of understanding, and his own talent was not enough to see.

Although He Jiayu was not convinced by her, she also heard that although Yuan Yuwei's inference was not true, it was not far away, and she regretted that she underestimated her on weekdays.

If only a dog that bites doesn't bark, she thought to herself with hatred.

Seeing that Princess Xianning didn't speak, the princess accompanied her and said, "The old slave also thinks that what Miss Yuan said is reasonable, yes or no, let that little Chen Zi and Steward Chen know as soon as they ask." ”

Yuan Yuzhi sneered on the side, "Even a fool like me can think that at this moment, those two people may not be able to open their mouths, why is my father-in-law confused?" The father-in-law also said earlier that the insider was either killed or disappeared, even if the father-in-law of Steward Chen didn't know about it before, why did the father-in-law think that this little Chen Zi was not an insider? ”

When she asked, the princess broke out in a cold sweat, he said that he did so before just to avoid further investigation, and he didn't want to make a mistake for a while, but he was caught by this little girl.

Because he saw that there were all some little girls here, he was a little contemptuous when he spoke, and other people listened to this old words, I am afraid that they would not remember what they said before, but this little girl did not say a word, and remembered carefully.

Within the walls of this palace, there is not a single flower that is a dog's tail grass, and the flowers are full of flowers all year round.

The outside is charming, and the inside is as thin as a needle.

Even if it hasn't grown yet, it has become a landscape of its own, and that Ling Ran trend is not comparable to mountain grasses and wildflowers.

After listening to Yuan Yuzhi's words, Wang Gonggong raised twelve points of caution, bent his waist down, and his body looked more rickety, "What Miss said is that the old slave is old, and some things can't be distinguished. Xiao Chenzi was an apprentice who was treated like a nephew when he was a nephew, so although he committed a crime, in the heart of the old slave, he really didn't think he was in the know, and only thought that he was doing what I had entrusted him, so he thought about it. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Princess Xianning cautiously, "If it is found out, he is just instigated by someone to provoke, and he doesn't know the truth, and I hope that the princess will be gracious and leave him alive. ”

After hearing this, Princess Xianning sighed, "My father-in-law is a person who values affection, and it is not in vain that my father said in the old days that you are loyal to the Lord and benevolent in your work." Don't worry, if that little Chen Zi is really deceived by others, I promise you to intercede with the princess and sister-in-law to save his life. ”

The princess knelt down and looked at his head, and for a while he burst into tears, "Princess, the princess is merciful, and the old slave is ashamed!" If it weren't for the old slaves participating in the competition between these children, things would not have evolved to this point...... The old slave was punished by the princess. ”

Princess Xianning was most afraid of this kind of scene, and hurriedly said to the princess: "The princess is serious, you also cherish Jiayu, I know her temperament, and she has made some nonsense. When I give this matter to the princess and sister-in-law, and then talk about other things, after all, it is a matter in the prince's brother's house, and I don't want to act as a substitute. ”
