Chapter 34 Heavenly Family Joy Thirty-Four

In the palace, the palace ladies were not only bullied by the masters, but also by the eunuchs. If you don't unite, you can only be bullied permanently. But the emperor didn't allow the palace ladies to be together in private, so they had to join forces secretly. Their ultimate goal is to take care of each other and help their sisters when necessary. Later, a palace maid came up with a way to distinguish identities, and every palace maid who joined the organization had tattoos on her body, indicating that she was a good sister for the rest of her life. In order to maintain confidentiality, members swear not to tell outsiders about the organization's secrets. Mama Xu was originally the backbone of this organization, and Qiao Qing was a cronie brought up by her. But Mama Xu's temper is relatively straight, and she is about to leave the palace, so she relaxed her vigilance. Once when I was talking to Qiao Qing, I was overheard by a little eunuch about the secrets between them. The little eunuch told this secret to his godfather, and the big eunuch used this as a threat to force Mama Xu to tell the secret of the organization and let the organization be used by him. In order to be able to get out of the palace, Mama Xu told the secret that should not be said. Fortunately, Qiao Qing stopped it in time, and united several sisters to secretly deal with the big eunuch and the little eunuch. Afterwards, they decided to attack the traitor Mama Xu, so that Mama Xu could not leave the palace for the rest of her life, and could only let Mama Xu have a relationship with Emperor Zhu Houxi of Jiajing. Without knowing it, Mama Xu was drugged by Qiao Qing for the rest of her life. Of course, Mama Xu was very angry and went to settle accounts with Qiao Qing, but she didn't expect that several sisters in the organization were there with Qiao Qing, and everyone joined forces to break Mama Xu's hands and feet. Everyone suggested driving Mama Xu crazy, so that outsiders thought that Mama Xu was crazy. Qiao Qing still had the unused medicine in his hand, so he poured it into Mama Xu once. Seeing Mama Xu's painful struggle, Qiao Qing and the others felt very enjoyable, so they simply fed Mama Xu a pill every once in a while. Mama Xu's sanity became more and more unclear, so Qiao Qing and the others sent a palace maid who didn't know anything to take care of Mama Xu. In fact, they didn't let Mama Xu die so easily, and wanted Mama Xu to suffer one more time.

Qin Tai asked again: "Where do you have the money to bribe the eunuchs who do things?" And why did the palace maid who was forced out of the palace secretly hide contraband out of the palace? Who is the connector? Who was the person who helped you get rid of the guards back then and allowed you to successfully frame Mama Xu? Who are you serving? ”

Qiao Qing glanced at Qin Tai, and had no choice but to confess the secret he knew. They originally helped some eunuchs and stole some small pieces of antiques, and after some eunuchs sold them, they gave them the money. Because eunuchs cannot enter the master's bedroom at any time, especially some new masters, they are not used to eunuchs who are not men or women entering and leaving their bedrooms. And only the new master's room has good things, all of which are rewarded by the emperor, and besides, the new master is not easy to get familiar with the new environment, and a few small things will not arouse everyone's suspicion. Therefore, the palace maids often help the familiar eunuchs to take things out of the palace, and then the eunuchs who "eat" them are taken outside the palace to exchange for cash. But the eunuchs were very greedy, and they said that they would pay half a cent, but there was almost no money in the hands of the palace maids. The palace maid often had conflicts with the eunuchs because of this kind of thing, and finally simply went to business. The girls marked the price of the stolen things, and the eunuchs bought them with cash if they wanted them, and did not inquire if they did not want to buy them. The palace maids privately collected a large number of antiques and prepared the palace maids to take them out for money. But in these years, the palace has not let people go, and the palace maids can't get out of the palace gate. As soon as they heard that there was an opportunity to go out, the palace ladies tried every means to let their own people go out of the palace first, and after taking things out to exchange for money, they bought fields and land in a safe place, and in the future, everyone would live outside together, never rely on men again, and live the life they wanted. As for who the joint is, Qiao Qing really doesn't know. Besides, Qiao Qing, Zhang Chunhua, and Guo Ying have never had direct contact with each other, and Qiao Qing's status in the organization is not high. Qiao Qing didn't know who was helping them back then, she was just an executor at the time, not a planner, and she didn't know the whole process. However, the organization has a supreme leader, but no one knows who this person is. I only know that this leader provides protection and funding for everyone, and also plans the future for everyone.

With Qiao Qing's confession, Qin Tai asked his subordinates to interrogate all the suspects separately, hoping to ask more secrets. However, he already has a rough idea of the organization, and there are two things to do now. The first thing is to confirm whether the case of the disappearance of the palace maid is really directly related to this organization, and whether the other party killed people after getting what they wanted. The second thing is who the leader of this organization is and what is the relationship between him and the other party. Is it a partnership that leverages each other? Or is it a superior-subordinate relationship? Or is it a temporary cooperative alliance? If it is superior, who is the master and who is secondary? What is their ultimate goal?

When Zhan Xiaoxiao rushed back with a lot of gains, the Shen Criminal Division and the Master of Ceremonies had already used their means to ask for everyone's confessions. The confessions of these people are almost the same as Qiao Qing's, but they have confessed some things with different priorities. Qin Tai almost roughly calculated, only except for the Fengxian Palace, which managed the ancestral temple, almost all palaces and departments had their people. Fengxian Hall is because of the place where the spiritual seat of the first emperors of the past dynasties is enshrined, and women are strictly forbidden to enter and exit, so there are no palace maids on duty. That is to say, as long as there are palace maids in the entire palace, almost all of them have people from their organization. The power of this organization is almost comparable to that of the eunuch group composed of eunuchs. Although they do not have the ambition of the eunuch group, nor are they as vicious as the eunuchs, their strength and destructive power should not be underestimated. The evidence brought by Zhan Xiaoxiao, although it is not big, is all good things. Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao may not know each other, but these big eunuchs of the celebrant will not be unaware. Everything here is priceless and symbolic.

Qin Tai took a piece of Tianhuang printing material and said to the eunuch of the celebrant eunuch: "Is this true? If so, the value is not to be underestimated. This kind of seal can also be taken out, which is really a big skill. Are your checks on entering and leaving the palace really so lax? ”

The celebrant hurriedly explained, "No, we checked very carefully. It's just that they're all women, so they can't be stripped naked and examined carefully, right? Besides, who would have thought that the palace maid would also learn to be carried out of the palace like this. But I caught a little eunuch who hid something bigger than you have. I can't even imagine how he managed to get in. When he took it out, he was bleeding all over the ground, and the man was crippled. ”

Qin Tai looked at the printing material in his hand, feeling sick again and again. But suddenly he was shocked, and he looked at the printing material for a long time and stopped talking. Zhan Xiaoxiao and the eunuchs on the side didn't dare to disturb him, so they had to wait for Qin Tai to come to his senses. Unexpectedly, Qin Tai was like crazy, standing up and running outside. No matter how much he went to the inner palace, he didn't say where he was going. If it weren't for the people who followed Zhan Xiaoxiao and the celebrant eunuch, Qin Tai would have been killed on the spot by the guards.

Qin Tai said a little incoherently: "Quick, take me to see Feng Bao." No, take me to see Meng Chong. I have something important, so I asked Meng Chong directly. As he spoke, he forced the celebrant to take him to see Meng Chong.

It was late at night, and not only was the palace locked, but it was also quiet. Qin Tai had to enter the palace, but seeing that everyone was reluctant to go, he simply took out the gold medal and forced everyone to let them go. A steward eunuch who was in charge of ceremonies had no choice but to take Qin Tai and his wife to see Meng Chong, and he was not sure if Meng Chong would agree to meet Qin Tai.

But Qin Tai didn't speak so well, came to Meng Chong's courtyard, and pushed away the little eunuch who was blocking him. Qin Tai shouted loudly, "Meng Chong." The celebrant seals the eunuch Meng Chong. You get the hell out of here. If this official Qin Tai asked you on behalf of the current emperor, if you are negligent, you will be guilty of bullying the king. Meng Chong, you give me to come out immediately. ”

Not long after Meng Chong fell asleep, he finally fell asleep and was woken up by Qin Tai. If Meng Chong hadn't heard Qin Tai say his own Qin Tai, it would have been possible for Meng Chong to kill this person who caused him to not be able to sleep well. It's just that as soon as Meng Chong heard that Qin Tai was looking for him, he immediately shuddered, and immediately went out to greet Qin Tai, the "troublemaker", after he came to his senses. At this time, Meng Chong didn't dare to offend Qin Tai, otherwise the consequences would be quite serious.

Before Meng Chong could speak, Qin Tai said, "Meng Chong." Is your seal still there? "The seal that Qin Tai said is not Meng Chong's personal seal. Rather, it refers to the big seal that the celebrant is in charge of. The inner court is different from the cabinet, the head of the cabinet is in charge of the cabinet's seal, and officials at all levels also have their own official seals, representing which aspects of affairs they manage. It's just that the big seal supervised by the celebrant is the most majestic seal in the world, that is, the heirloom jade seal that symbolizes imperial power. The eunuch who holds the seal of the eunuch is the guy who manages the meal on behalf of the emperor, so he has this official position.

Meng Chong glanced at Qin Tai, the biggest task of he, the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant seal, is to take care of this jade seal, how can it not be in his hands? The jade seal is placed in the signing room on the left side of the imperial study. This signing room is also the special office of the eunuch who holds the seal of his celebrant and seal. There are not only jade seals inside, but also various archives and imperial approvals from Emperor Longqing. This thing is more important than Meng Chong's old life, the place where the jade seal is placed is not only full of organs, but also the best guards outside are constantly guarding, even if Meng Chong wants to come out with the jade seal, it is impossible.
