The cause of the incident is actually quite simple.
It was when Xiaozhu went out of "Broken Fangzhai" late at night to do business, and was followed to the place where he was talking. He took advantage of the heavy rain and chose the location in the middle of nowhere, and did not deliberately hide what he had to say.
Then, turning around and walking a few steps, I saw the bag hanging from the dead branches by the roadside.
Xiaozhu is not a fool, he didn't see the bag when he passed by just now, but after saying a few words, there is a bag here.
All this shows that someone has overheard their words here just now. Even, the man followed the little pillar to get there in the first place.
Although no other traces were found, Xiao Zhu knew that something big might be wrong!
The small pillar was an order for the absolutely loyal dead soldier, although the dead soldier was only a slave in this palace, but because the other party did not threaten him, he did not hide all his words.
When I think about what I said in hindsight, it's clear that I've explained everything.
Even Su Tingcheng didn't return to the palace, he said it all.
"It's all my fault! It's all my fault—"
However, Linghua's words did not make Xiao Zhu much thinner.
He admitted that this time he was careless, Su Chengcheng did not return to the palace, this incident made him feel impetuous, and he lost his sense of proportion.
"Let you get up, get up!" Xiao Baozi walked over, dragged him up from the ground, and said, "Now you should find out who the thing in your hand is as soon as possible, otherwise this time, you and I will not be able to repay our sins by apologizing for our sins!" ”
Xiao Baozi pursed her lips, Su Qingcheng hadn't escaped yet, so they dragged her back.
Linghua glanced at Xiao Zhu and snatched the bag from his hand. First I looked at the embroidered pattern on it, and then I looked at the contents inside.
"Mint grass?" Linghua muttered, thoughtful in her eyes.
"Little pillar, what halls did you pass by on the way?"
Xiao Zhu wiped his tears and thought about it carefully: "After passing through the 'Vine Pavilion', 'Zhaoyang Palace', 'Jinle Palace', 'Shanglin Palace', 'Xiangyue Pavilion', and finally ...... Finally ......"
"Finally, I met that person near the 'Guangren Palace', yes or no?" Linghua asked lightly.
In fact, Xiao Zhu is generally responsible for the internal affairs of "Broken Fangzhai", but this big crisis requires the three of them to work together.
Therefore, Linghua told him some "own people" who could be revealed, so there was this bad thing.
So, in the final analysis, she has a lot of responsibility for this matter.
"Aunt Linghua, how do you know?" Xiao Zhuzi gritted his teeth, he did choose the residence of the Empress Dowager who was imprisoned - Guangren Palace!
It is precisely because he chose there that he will be unscrupulous and forget the principle of being cautious in the palace.
"Taste." Linghua didn't say much, the little pillar had the smell of "Thousand Golden Vines" that only existed near Guangren Palace, and she was very familiar with this smell.
"Except for the 'Guangren Palace', it seems that each of the other five places is very suspicious!" Xiao Baozi stood aside and said coldly.
"Yes!" Linghua sat down, looked at this bag carefully, and began to think about it carefully.
After a while, she raised her lips and smiled coldly: "I know who it is!" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Zhuzi and Xiao Baozi were both stunned, and said in unison: "Who?!" ”
Linghua smiled coldly and turned to look at the heavy rain outside. Little master, Linghua will definitely wait for you to come back, before that, the palace can rest assured!
……
Zhu'er saw that Zhao Baolin's mood seemed to be much better, so she persuaded her to continue to rest.
Just before she could speak, there was a sound of footsteps, and when she turned to look, she vaguely saw a little eunuch kneeling on the ground from behind the bead curtain:
"Little master, Aunt Linghua next to Concubine Li is here, and people are already waiting outside!"
Zhao Baolin's face stiffened suddenly, his hands subconsciously clenched together, and his eyes were like a storm.
When Zhu'er and Xiao Luzi saw her expression, they couldn't help but shrink a little. To be honest, compared to other masters, Zhao Baolin's temper has always been better.
On weekdays, he is also gentle and generous, and rarely loses his temper. It is precisely because he rarely does this, so once in a while, his emotions are out of control, which will make these minions tremble.
Zhao Baolin got up from the couch and smiled coldly: "Zhu'er, change my clothes for me!" ”
"Whoa!"
Zhao Baolin watched Linghua approach, she was wearing clothes made of "streamer brocade", this kind of clothing has the effect of fireproof and waterproof, and it is just warm in winter and cool in summer.
She gritted her teeth, this kind of good thing, but the countries below have paid tribute, and there is not much in a year.
There are very few people in this palace who have such a thing.
Although only the hem of Linghua is made of "streamer brocade", and even mixed with some other materials, this luxury is already enviable.
You know, these "streamer brocades" can make several handkerchiefs.
The good things she didn't have were actually worn on the palace maid who served Su Qingcheng, which was really ironic!
Thinking of this, her face was not good-looking. When she was most favored, the emperor had never been so kind to her.
"Aunt Linghua came here late at night, but what's the matter?" Even if she didn't like it in her heart, she still asked softly.
Linghua glanced at Zhao Baolin, and then her gaze swept over Zhu'er and Xiaoluzi on her left and right.
"Does Little Master Zhao want the slave to speak directly?"
Her words seemed simple, but they seemed to contain deep meaning, which made Zhao Baolin cautious for a moment.
She seemed to think of something, and her face turned terrified. Zhu'er stared at her face for a moment, and she didn't dare to look at it again.
"Aunt Linghua said bluntly, but what does Concubine Li want to tell her concubine to do?"
Linghua saw that Zhao Baolin didn't want to talk to her alone, so she didn't care, but said lightly: "Concubine Li Niangniang has always been kind, and every little master and mother in this harem is sincere." If there is no major event, Concubine Li Niangniang will naturally not send slaves and maids to come late at night to disturb the dream of Zhao Xiaozhu. ”
Without waiting for Zhao Baolin to speak, Linghua said with a smile: "Unless, there are people in this palace who don't want to make Concubine Li feel better." At this time, Concubine Li likes to talk about other people's things, such as what happened a few years ago, and she often talks about it. What the slave is worried about is that the concubine is just talking about herself now. However, one day she is upset, and she may say something about someone else, such as ...... Zhao Xiaozhu——"
"You-" Zhao Baolin stood up from his position, his face was difficult to see.
It's a threat!
She pursed her lips, although she knew that there would be such a day, she did not expect this day to come so soon.
Su Chengcheng, you are really ruthless!
She took a deep breath, and only after a while did she let herself ask in a steady tone: "Aunt Linghua has to take good care of Concubine Li, after all, Concubine Li Niangniang is now the emperor's top pet, as for what Niangniang needs to order, leave it to me." ”
