Chapter Fifty-Six: Choosing a Palace Maid
Later, the doctor said that if it weren't for the fact that there was a lady who had given birth, that is, Hua Silhouette helped Mrs. Zhong, I am afraid that waiting for Mrs. Wen to come, Zhong Baolin would have been stillborn, and even Mrs. Zhong would be more than lucky.
When Mrs. Zhong wanted to thank the flower silhouette, she found that the flower silhouette had long since left, and she didn't even leave her name.
However, Mrs. Zhong secretly inquired about the name and origin of the benefactor, and wanted to come to the door to thank her in person, but the flower silhouette was just a concubine, and Mrs. Zhong only saw the Jiang family when she arrived in Lifu.
Mrs. Zhong also understood the difficult situation of the flower silhouette, so she never looked for the flower silhouette again, but she kept this kindness in her heart, after Zhong Baolin entered the palace, Mrs. Zhong told Zhong Baolin to help a pear when necessary.
That's why Zhong Baolin deliberately put sawdust in the clothes of the Eighth Prince that were easy to find, in order to remind Li Ling of the matter.
As for why Zhong Baolin didn't come directly to tell Li Ling that someone was doing something inside the clothes of the Eighth Prince, this is Zhong Baolin's cleverness. If Zhong Baolin came directly to Li Ling and said that someone would harm the Eighth Prince in the clothes of the Eighth Prince, Li Ling would only be suspicious, even if Li Ling really found a problem in the clothes of the Eighth Prince in the end, Li Ling would also suspect Zhong Baolin, and wonder if it would be Zhong Baolin himself who shouted to catch the thief. For Zhong Baolin herself, if she directly told Li Ling about this, she would inevitably know that it was Zhong Baolin who ruined her good deeds, and how could that person let Zhong Baolin go when the time came?
But Zhong Baolin uses this way, firstly, to achieve his own goal, to remind Li Ling to repay the kindness of the flower silhouette back then, and secondly, to remove herself from this matter, at least she will not be known by the murderer behind the murder of the Eighth Prince, and thirdly, Li Ling will find Zhong Baolin's head by herself, and her suspicion of Zhong Baolin will be much smaller.
Although I don't know how Zhong Baolin learned that someone was going to kill the Eighth Prince, but since Zhong Baolin would remind Li Ling in such a roundabout way, Zhong Baolin must have a good idea of this person behind the scenes.
Pear Ling has been checking things that she hasn't found for a long time, and now there is a shortcut to take, how can she let it go? Although Zhong Baolin was vague about how he knew about this, Li Ling still understood the identity of the person behind it.
The person behind it is not Concubine Li Xian, who Li Ling guessed randomly, but the person she locked in from the beginning - Concubine Xiao Shu!
It's just that it was Concubine Xiao Shufei who made the plan, but it was someone else who actually operated it, and Zhong Baolin didn't know who the real person was.
It seems that this matter still needs to be investigated.
Mama Yang and Mingxiu are both innocent, and Liling naturally released the two of them, or continued to take care of the Eighth Prince, but Liling felt that the Eighth Emperor was young and Mingxiu was not stable enough, so she sent Lian He to the Eighth Prince's side.
In this way, there are only two henchmen left around Li Ling, Zhihe and Minglu, and Li Ling feels that she should still mention another first-class palace maid to make up for the share of the four first-class palace maids.
Since Chun Yi died, the quota of the first-class palace maid around Li Ling has always been empty. Before, Li Ling had been busy getting pregnant and giving birth, and she didn't have the energy to cultivate another confidant, but now she is a little free, and there are not enough people around her, so it should be on the agenda to make up for the first-class palace maid.
This matter was handed over to Minglu to do, firstly, because Zhihe had been busy checking the eight princes' clothes recently, and he couldn't be busy; The second reason is that Liling wants to try Minglu's ability.
Zhihe and Lianhe are not young, and they will be released from the palace in a few years, and then it will be time for Minglu, Mingxiu, and Mingdan to take the lead. Minglu has been by her side for the past few years, and she has been exposed to it on weekdays, and she has often mentioned it from time to time, and she has grown a lot.
Minglu naturally knew that Pear Ling wanted to test herself, so she also worked hard to pick some people who fit Pear Ling's heart to choose for Pear Ling.
In the end, it turned out that Minglu's ability to do things is still relatively reliable, and among the people she chooses, there are those who are as lively as herself, some who are as calm as Mingdan, some who are gentle, and some who look more aggressive, but there is one thing, that is, the bottom of these people is basically clean.
In the end, Pear Ling chose a third-class palace maid named "Dong'er", Dong'er was born white and pure, her temperament looks a little shy, and her speech is also soft, especially easy to blush, and the main reason why Pear Ling chose her is because her eyes look clean.
After Dong'er was a criminal official, her father was exiled for corruption, she was charged into the palace as a palace maid, Dong'er did not enter the palace for a long time, and her personality was not brilliant. Although she has experienced great changes in her family, Dong'er has been well protected since she was a child, and she has not been exposed to too much dark side of the palace since she entered the palace, so she can maintain relatively clean and clear eyes.
Dong'er asked Li'er to give her a name, but Li'er has always not named the palace people in the palace, so she asked Dong'er to use her previous name.
After Dong'er knew that he was a criminal official, he didn't dare to use his original name, so he followed Minglu and added a Ming in front of his name, which was called Ming Dong.
This little thing, Pear Ling naturally went with her.
The person selected by Minglu also has a palace maid known to Liling, that is, the eyeliner of Concubine Xiao Shufei that Zhihe found before-Caiyun.
Li Ling was originally a little curious, Ming Lu knew that Caiyun was Concubine Xiao Shufei's person, and what did she bring her for? But seeing Minglu's hippie smile, Chong Li blinked.
Li Ling was silent, although Minglu was a little more lively, she still did things in a very measured way, and she naturally had her reasons for doing so.
So in addition to mentioning Ming Dong as a first-class palace maid, Li Ling also promoted Caiyun, who was originally just a rough palace maid, to a third-class palace maid.
Mingdong and Caiyun are thankful, and they won't mention it for the time being.
After everything was done, Pear Ling had time to ask about Minglu Caiyun.
"Niangniang, Caiyun has 'deliberately' helped the slave and maid a lot today, how can the slave and maid not fulfill Caiyun's heart!" Ming Lu said in a strange way.
Although the words were vague, Ri Ling still understood.
This Caiyun knew that Minglu wanted to choose a first-class palace maid for her, so she deliberately leaned forward to Minglu and did Minglu a small favor. Since Caiyun has the heart to climb up for other masters, Minglu naturally wants to fulfill her, so she brought Caiyun here, and Liling naturally rose to Caiyun's level. Only when Caiyun's level is high, and when Caiyun "inquires" about it and tells Xiao Shufei about it, Xiao Shufei will believe it.
Let's see what this colorful cloud wants to do!
