Yang Jingru thought of lines for Liu Jing, and when she matched the words, she found that if Liu Jing didn't sleep in the middle of the night and found that someone was crying, it would be a bit deliberate for her to ask. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

"Then wait a few days, let the palace maid pretend to be a ghost every day, and when the other palace maids are panicked, report it to me, I don't believe in ghosts and gods, so I went to find out when everyone said it was haunted, and then found that it was the little palace maid who was crying there, and then I asked her why she was crying, and I could bring out a series of things behind." Liu Jing said.

"Who are you going to look for, that palace maid?" Yang Jingru asked.

"The one who feels wronged for my little friend and then worries can only be the palace maid of Chuxiu Palace." Liu Jing said, "There is only one palace maid in Chuxiu Palace around me, Dingchun. ”

"And is her loyalty reliable?" Yang Jingru said.

"Loyalty is only known when you use it." Liu Jing said, "Wait until I go back and talk to her in detail." ”

"Anyway, she has to do it, and if she doesn't do it, she has to do it, if it's useless, what use do I want her to do?"

Liu Jing returned to Yonghe Palace and asked Dingchun to accompany him at night. Although Dingchun came out of Chuxiu Palace with Liu Jing, she and Liu Jing did not have a deep master-servant relationship in Chuxiu Palace, so after other palace maids made up for Liu Jing's share of palace maids, she would not stand out.

Today, Liu Jing asked her to accompany her for the night, and she was surprised and eager, and she wanted to serve her mother well. There are still few palace maids who are not pursuing, the little palace maids yearn for the big palace maids, the big palace maids yearn for the Shang Palace Bureau, female officials are not everyone can do, and the henchmen who are mixed with the mother's mother, life is always much better, food and clothing, and you can also greet the little palace maid to serve.

"Dingchun, are you familiar with perilla, ginger, and orchid branches?" Liu Jing, who was lying on the bed, suddenly asked. Dingchun, who was sleeping at the foot of the bed, was heartbroken, and the three people that Niangniang said had all followed the show girl to the Huanyi Bureau. "I'm not familiar with it, Zisu and they are the palace maids in the front hall, and the slaves and maids are the palace maids in the back hall."

"It shouldn't be." Liu Jing said, "You didn't serve in the front and rear halls from the beginning, maybe you are still a group of people who have entered the palace, a group of people who have been trained, how can you not be familiar with it?" ”

"Niangniang, the slave maid and Zisu did enter the palace together and were trained together, but after the training, they were divided into two different places, and when they were assigned to Chuxiu Palace together, we hadn't met and talked for half a year. What Zisu does, the slave really doesn't know, Niangniang, whose person is the slave and the maid? The slave maid has never harmed the mother's heart. Dingchun heard Liu Jing say that they would enter the palace together and be trained together, thinking that Niangniang knew about her relationship with Zisu, and then Zisu pushed her, because she suspected that she was also Concubine Guo, and she was a chess piece placed by Concubine Guo's side, so she came to test her. When the spring is in a hurry, it is natural to show loyalty.

It turns out to be really related. Liu Jing just said casually, anyway, it doesn't matter when the time comes, it will be said that it is related, but if it is really related, it adds a bit of sincerity, the curtain hangs, and Dingchun can't see Liu Jing's smile.

"It's okay, if I don't believe you and think that you are also Concubine Guo's eyeliner, I won't keep you and use you again." Liu Jing said.

"Thank you for believing in the slave." Dingchun said.

"How much eyeliner did Concubine Guo put in Chuxiu Palace?" Liu Jing asked. "She hasn't always been favored by His Majesty, why is she so nervous."

"I can't say how many people have been planted, some are useful, and some have not yet come in handy." Dingchun didn't know why Niangniang was curious about this question.

"It's a bad move." Liu Jing said, "The show girl enters the palace with nothing, and almost all of them will rely on the first palace maid to serve her, if this palace maid has bad intentions and deliberately takes the simple show girl in an unfavorable direction, the show girl's life will be over." ”

"Mother." Dingchun doesn't understand.

"Just like when you are in the palace, you will occasionally miss Shisu who entered the palace together, she just acted according to orders, but she ended up like this, what is a good place for the Huanyi Bureau? The palace maids inside will not live to be thirty, and you can't sleep at night because you miss her situation, and sigh to the moon. ”

Dingchun vaguely figured out what it meant, so he didn't reply, and listened quietly.

"For example, Zhou Yuting, such a beautiful and cheerful person, looks smart, is she such a domineering person? Did someone tell her something, to act like this in order to be beneficial to her, or that the queen mother likes people who do things like this, so she did it, she has just entered the palace as a show girl doing things that only the favored concubine who has been favored for many years can be arrogant and domineering. ”

"Yes, isn't the meaning of the palace maid's existence to be obedient, but obedience has made Shisu fall to the point of being in the Huanyi Bureau, and there is no one to help her." Ding Chun replied, "I heard that Zhou Xiunu is very good to the palace maids, and she is not so bad to other show girls, some show girls come to the palace without long things, and Zhou Xiunu also shares her makeup drawer with her, which shows that she is not a completely bad person." ”

Liu Jing knew that Dingchun knew what she meant, she sat up, lifted the curtain and said to Dingchun, "When the time comes, you will say this in front of the Queen Mother, you don't need to add oil and vinegar, just say that you pity the fate of the sisters who entered the palace together, and feel sorry for yourself so you can't sleep peacefully in the middle of the night, Yin Yin's crying is not intended to scare the sisters in the palace, and she is punished by punishment." ”

"Don't worry, the Queen Mother will ask my opinion, and I will say, having feelings is not necessarily a bad thing, you just did the wrong thing in the wrong place, since you know that you are wrong, you don't need to be punished, and you don't commit it next time."

"After that, we will return to the palace twice, and we don't have to worry about the rest of the matter."

"Concubine Guo is also coming at me even if she fights back, she won't harm you, if I am knocked down by Concubine Guo, I will arrange for you before that." Liu Jing said, "Don't worry, I still have this righteous anger." ”

Sure enough, since the second night, there has been an intermittent cry in Yonghe Palace, and when I was about to look for it, there was no sound, and so on, people thought about ghosts.

When Xingui was waiting for Liu Jing to change her clothes, there were two big blue and black balls at the moment, and she looked low in energy, Liu Jing laughed at her, "Why did you go last night?" So uninspiring. ”

"Didn't you hear that at night?" asked Xingui.

"Hear what?" Liu Jing asked rhetorically.

"It's nothing, the wind is blowing." Xin Gui hesitated and said that Niangniang was not favored in the first place, and if there was another rumor of the haunting in Niangniang's palace, then His Majesty would not think of Niangniang.

"I heard the little palace maid say something in the morning, saying that there are ghosts at night, is it what you heard at night?" Liu Jing asked, anyway, today is the day of chasing ghosts.

"Niangniang Ji is a celestial person, how can there be a ghost where Niangniang lives." Xin Gui said, "Xu is that the wind blows to strange places at night, so there is this association." ”

"That's true." Liu Jing said, "Then I have to see what the demon wind of this demon is coming from tonight." ”

I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, waited until the crying started, and then immediately went to find it, this time the crying did not disappear in time, and Dingchun, who had red circles under his eyes, was caught by a group of people, "Dingchun, what are you doing here?" ”

"Mother?" Dingchun was also very helpless when he was discovered, and hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt.

"No ghosts, it's Dingchun, it's all scattered." Xin Gui said that crying is very taboo in the harem, and the less people know about it, the better.

"Dingchun, why are you crying here?" Liu Jing asked.

Early the next morning, Liu Jing hurriedly went to Cining Palace to ask for peace, and said to my aunt that I had grievances and wanted to meet the Queen Mother.

Empress Dowager Li sat upright and saw Liu Jing coming in, "What grievances do you have?" ”

Liu Jing saluted dignifiedly, "Actually, it's not a concubine, it's a concubine's palace maid." ”

"In the past few days, the concubine's palace can always hear the sound of whining and crying at night, although the son is silent and confused, but he has been letting it, and he is afraid of rumors. So when I heard the palace maid muttering, I didn't sleep last night, and I wanted to know who was crying again, and later found out that it was the concubine's palace maid who was crying.

"She cried not for herself, but for her sisters, I missed her heart, and thought that if what she said was true, then this matter should also be known to the mother, so the concubine came early in the morning." Liu Jing said.

"What's the matter?" Empress Dowager Li asked.

Liu Jing asked Dingchun to come out and speak.

Dingchun knelt on the ground, his shoulders trembled, obviously very scared, and kowtowed after he finished speaking, "The slave knows that she is wrong, she shouldn't cry at night in the palace, and she also asks the queen mother to be gracious, and the slave and maid don't dare anymore." ”

"What you say is true?" Empress Dowager Li asked, "Then why didn't you say it during the first interrogation?" Why didn't you cry when she first went to the Raccoon Bureau. ”

The slave maid saw that Zisu's testimony had not changed, and remembered that Zisu had told the slave maid that she was doing things for Concubine Guo, and Concubine Guo would protect her, so she didn't want to do too much but spoil her business. But Zisu has been going to the Huanyi Bureau for a month, and there is no news of her return, and the slave is worried that Concubine Guo has forgotten her, so she is worried in her heart, so she is out of shape. ”

"Haven't you done anything for Concubine Guo?" Empress Dowager Li asked.

"Xu is Concubine Guo's mother thinks that my mother is not a threat, so she didn't come to coerce and lure me to do things for her. Although the slave maid is dull, she still has eyes to see, Fang Ruo is Wang Beauty's maid, Wang Meiren's makeup was suggested by Fang Ruo at the beginning, what is Fang Ruo's fate now, and Zisu. Dingchun said from the heart, "Even if Concubine Guo finds a slave and asks the slave to harm Concubine Liu, the slave will never do it, the slave will tell the mother, and if the pillar is killed again, no one will threaten me to hurt the mother." ”

Concubine Liu listened and tried her tears with a handkerchief, "The concubine lived in the apse at the time, and the situation in the front hall really doesn't know, but Zhou Yuting occasionally came to the apse, judging by her words and deeds, she really doesn't look like a person who can do evil deeds, if the slave maid uses her name to bully other show girls, it makes sense." These concubines did not dare to guarantee the authenticity, and asked the Queen Mother to make a clear decision. ”

"But Wang Meiren's matter, the concubine is her own experience, the queen mother did not bother to deal with Wang Meiren's illness at the beginning, Wang Meiren made a big fuss with Fang Ruo, and the queen mother mediated it, saying this, other girls have also said, why don't you see other show girls listen, you don't have the ability to distinguish what to blame the palace maid. Wang Meiren is really sad and pitiful, the only person who comes to the palace to rely on the show girl, the queen mother, everything in the palace comes from the palace maid, if the palace maid is suspicious, it is no wonder that the show girl has deviated. ”

"The mourning family knows, this matter must be thoroughly investigated." Mrs. Li said with a serious face. "You guys stand down, someone is going to summon Zhou Yuting."
