Chapter 356: A Messy Concubine Relationship

Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager saw Empress Dowager Sheng and Yang Mu come in together, and she already knew what the two of them were for.

After saluting, Yang Mu told him about today's events.

Empress Dowager Sheng didn't have the heart to quarrel with an old man and a child, and said directly: "Empress Dowager, let the Vermilion Bird Army set up a torture hall to torture the assassins, this matter is not in accordance with the rules, and it should be handed over to Dali Temple." ”

The Empress Dowager glanced at the Empress Dowager Sheng and said, "The Empress Dowager is afraid that she did not read the laws of Dashun well and assassinated the royal concubine and the prince, according to the law, it will be handed over to the three divisions for trial, not Dali Temple." ”

Empress Dowager Sheng pursed her lips and said, "Dali Temple is in charge of the highest judgment and criminal law, and there is nothing wrong with handing it over to Dali Temple." ”

The Empress Dowager said: "Dali Temple was born in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and he is very close to you on weekdays, and everyone knows about it. The Queen Mother should avoid suspicion! ”

Empress Dowager Sheng frowned and said, "What does Empress Dowager mean by this?" Could it be that I can still send someone to assassinate Concubine Shu's mother and son? ”

The Empress Dowager said: "The Zongren Mansion has discussed this matter with me, and since it is a royal matter, I still forget it." ”

Empress Dowager Sheng was silent for a moment, it seemed that the Zongren Mansion was on the old woman's side in this matter.

Thinking of the fact that the Zongren Mansion and the old woman forced the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces to release King Huan, the Empress Dowager Sheng secretly hated it in her heart, and she didn't bother with the two anymore, talked a few words, and left.

After the Empress Dowager Sheng left, she gave Yang Mu a seat and carefully asked about the details of the assassination.

After Yang Mu answered one by one, the Empress Dowager glanced at the old lady beside her with a smile and said, "Look, I'll just say that you will go out of the tiger girl!" ”

The old lady also praised: "The empress dowager's eyes have long seen the ability of the princess to protect the country. ”

The Empress Dowager said: "Since the Empress Dowager of the two palaces has agreed to reward meritorious deeds, this matter must be well publicized." ”

Yang Mu's eyes lit up, and she also had this intention.

Seeing that Yang Mu understood, the Empress Dowager smiled even more comfortably, looked at the dark circles under Yang Mu's eyes, smiled and asked her to rest earlier, and let her go.

Yang Mu left Cining Palace and went back to Dingwangfu directly, but instead of resting, he found Mrs. Bao and said a few words.

Knowing that Lin Xiao had not returned from the barracks, he stopped staying and hurried to the palace.

After Yang Mu read all the rules and regulations of the palace and became familiar with them, he was finally able to rest, but his heart was still not quiet.

She rode to the camp, found the armory camp, and instructed her to build more furnaces and speed up the construction of steel blades and armor before returning to the duty room of the palace, where she slept slightly on the marching bed.

But after two hours of sleep, it was dawn.

Yang Mu habitually wanted to drink sweet water, so he remembered to give it to Lin Xiao, counting it, Lin Xiao had also drunk it for several days, and he didn't know how much his internal strength had recovered.

If, according to what he said, ten days and a half months would be fine, it should be soon.

After Yang Mu crossed his knees to breathe, he stretched his muscles and walked out of the duty room.

Bai Yao came in with washing things and said, "Deputy Commander, the sisters who died yesterday have been sent back to the valley cemetery, and the wounded have already been taken care of by military doctors. ”

Yang Mu nodded, thinking in his heart that it was still necessary to speed up the replacement of iron with steel, which could reduce battlefield casualties.

Bai Yao continued: "The two people who were arrested yesterday were detained separately and are already being interrogated. It's just that both of them are masters, and the interrogation is quite difficult. ”

Yang Mu said while washing: "Don't worry, you can become a master, and your mind is naturally firmer than that of ordinary people." You send someone to Bai Zewei to ask how the five wolf killers who were caught at the beginning confessed. ”

She smiled evilly and said, "Let's learn from the experience." ”

Bai Yao didn't know anything about killing wolves, and seeing his deputy commander smiling evilly, it must be something interesting, so he answered and ordered someone to go.

Yang Mu washed up, ate breakfast, and began to inspect.

This is the first time she has inspected the palace since she took over, so she has to look carefully.

Bai Yao followed behind her, looked at the huge palace, and said with emotion: "The royal palace is really magnificent, the palace is already such an imperial authority, I don't know what kind of scene it is in the palace?" ”

Yang Mu stood by the lake, looked at Concubine Zhu casting bait in the pavilion over there, and said: "The palace is not as big as here, and the scenery is mainly magnificent and atmospheric, and it is not as comfortable as here." ”

Bai Yao also saw Concubine Zhu in the pavilion and said, "Deputy Commander, these concubines don't seem to be in harmony. ”

"Huh?" Yang Mu turned his head to look at Bai Yao.

Bai Yao said: "I heard from the sisters who guarded the dormitory that these three concubines were snarky and smiling when they met. ”

Yang Mu asked: "Aren't Concubine Xue and Concubine Fang on good terms?" ”

Bai Yao nodded and said, "Concubine Xue's words are very difficult to hear, and Concubine Fang is also very ruthless in her counterattack. ”

Yang Mu was a little distracted, it stands to reason that they have already come to the palace, so it has nothing to do with being jealous, besides, Emperor Xibao and Emperor Cargill have been dead for a long time, why do they still speak mean when they meet?

Is it because of the forces behind it?

Behind Concubine Xue is the Empress Dowager Sheng, and behind the Concubine Fang should be the Empress Dowager Tao.

Or because when Emperor Xibao was alive before, what grievances did he have?

It's a mess.

Yang Mu asked again: "Is Concubine Zhu also arguing with the two?" ”

Concubine Zhu is the concubine of Emperor Cargill, and the relationship between the two should belong to the mother-in-law.

Bai Yao said: "The strange thing is that Concubine Xue and Concubine Fang hate Concubine Zhu very much, and sometimes the two join forces to squeeze her. ”

Yang Mu: "......"

"What about Concubine Shu?" Yang Mu asked.

Bai Yao said: "After Concubine Shu came yesterday, she hasn't gone out yet, and these concubines haven't gone to take a look. ”

Yang Mu said: "Let the people in the scout camp inquire about the palace maids and eunuchs who serve in the palace, and see if they can ask about the grievances between them." ”

Bai Yao said with a smile: "There is no need for the deputy commander to order this matter, the sisters of the scout camp have already started to inquire yesterday, but the results have not yet been presented." ”

Yang Mu nodded, and could only wait.

Yang Mu and Bai Yao took a good tour of the palace, and some inappropriate places were adjusted in time, and then they went back to the duty room.

There was a man in the duty room wearing a five-grade eunuch uniform, who was already sitting in the guest seat.

When the guard was changed that day, Yang Mu saw this person, who was Wang Qing, the chief eunuch of the palace.

"Mr. Wang." Yang Mu arched his hand and came in to sit on the main seat.

Wang Qingle took a sip of tea, stood up and saluted Yang Mu, and said, "Princess, the old slave is here to send the list of people who have entered and exited the palace recently. ”

He took out a roster and handed it to Bai Yao, who in turn handed it to Yang Mu.

Yang Mu opened it and took a look, it was about ten days to enter and leave the palace roster, divided into two parts.

The first half of the part is not large, there are high-ranking officials or eunuch female officials, these are official affairs; There were also some noble ladies and noblewomen, and most of these were guests of several concubines.

The second half of the group is more numerous, and they are palace maids and eunuchs who go out to buy or meet their families in the palace.

Yang Mu's beautiful big eyes looked at Wang Qing through the booklet, and said slowly: "Manager Wang, this roster is wrong, right?" ”

Thanks for the lazy bug's tip!
