When Hua Rong returned to the main courtyard, she saw Iron Dog and Erhu kneeling in the courtyard.

"What are you doing on your knees?"

"The slave didn't finish what the county lord told him, and he almost caused trouble for the county lord, and he deserves to be punished!"

Iron Dog spoke, his expression grim, as if he had committed some heinous crime.

After all, they are still children, where is the opponent of a battle-hardened person like Jiang Yunfei?

Hua Rong didn't want to punish them, but seeing that the two of them were so serious, she changed her mind and said: "You failed to complete what I confessed, essentially because you are not strong enough now, and in the future, everyone will have to wrap sandbags on their legs and arms every day with half a stick of incense." ”

The gatekeeper and the little guy in the Zhongyong Mansion's are all going to practice some fist and foot kung fu, Hua Rong doesn't know the moves, but he also knows how to practice the basic skills.

The two breathed a sigh of relief, not only did they not have enough to eat, but they also had to endure all kinds of beatings and scolding, and Zama and sandbags were not punishment for them at all.

The two got up and prepared to leave, Hua Rong said: "In a few days, I will take you to the Yamen to register, if you still remember your original name, you can change it back, if you don't remember, I will give you another name." ”

Names like Iron Dog and Erhu are too arbitrary, and now that they haven't grown up, it's okay to call them up, and it's somewhat inappropriate to go out and walk around in the future.

The next day, Hua Rong instructed Yueqing: "Now they grow fast, this season each person only makes two sets of new clothes is enough, winter clothes wait for the cold dew and then measure the size, make one more set of good washing, you are now a first-class maid in my yard, you don't have to do these yourself, you can go directly to the garment shop to find a tailor or hire an embroidery girl to the house." ”

"The slave and maid understand, and tomorrow the slave and maid will go to the city to find the embroidery girl."

Hua Rong took ten taels of silver to Yueqing: "In the future, you will pay four taels per month, two sets of new clothes per quarter, the business in the shop is good, and I will give more rewards at the end of the year. ”

Yueqing was very surprised, when the Internal Affairs Office came to pick people, it was implying that the county lord of Lingqing donated the family property of King Qi, and he was driven out of the palace penniless, and he was a poor man with no relatives.

It is precisely because of this that Yuebai dares to be disrespectful to flowers like that.

But now Huarong is not only rich, but also very generous.

Not only has Yueqing's monthly money not decreased, but the work to be done is much easier than before.

Yueqing hurriedly thanked her, and then heard Hua Rong ask, "Before you left the palace, did you see the queen?" ”

It is true that Hua Rong is now an orphan girl, but the Queen Mother and Emperor Showa have shown their love for her in public before, Yuebai is just a small palace lady, if no one instructs her, how dare she be so arrogant?

Yueqing was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said: "The queen mother is very busy in the harem, and the major families have been raising funds recently, and the mother has not found time to meet us." ”

Hua Rong is not bad at the moment, and Yue Qing is also cautious in her speech, taking care of Hua Rong's self-esteem.

If the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother really cared about Huarong, they would naturally tell everything in person, and they would not let her suffer any grievances.

Hearing the kindness in Yueqing's words, Hua Rong changed his question: "Who chose you to leave the palace, and what did he say when he came to choose people?" ”

Yueqing said the man's name and the words at the time.

That person is Cao Wang, the godson of the head of internal affairs, because the head of internal affairs is a popular person in front of the emperor, Cao Wang's status in the internal affairs office is also very high, and the people he contacts on weekdays are the serious masters of various palaces, and he is very snobbish.

After Yueqing finished speaking, he thought that Yuebai was still locked up in the firewood room, and couldn't help but say: "Cao Wang wanted to find Yuebai to be his counterpart before, and the relationship between the two is very good, and the county lord has been keeping Yuebai locked up like this, I'm afraid it's not a way." ”

Cao Wang's person is not only snobbish, but also very small-minded, if he knew that Hua Rong was so good to his heart, he would inevitably want to make a stumbling block behind his back.

He can't go out of the palace as a eunuch, but he can't do anything, but he can chew his tongue and sow discord in front of the nobles in the palace, and there are more opportunities to do things.

Hua Rong knew that Yueqing was warning herself in disguise, nodded and said: "I am measured, you don't have to worry, she has no intention of recognizing me as the master, so she doesn't need her to do things for me, and it is nothing to raise an extra mouth." ”

"Yes."

At noon, the people of the Night Patrol Division came to inform Hua Rong to identify the body.

Wang Qingyun died.

Hua Rong was a little surprised, afraid that Iron Dog and Erhu would not be able to bear the stuffing, so she took Yueqing to the Night Patrol Division.

Wang Qingyun died a miserable death, he was shot into a sieve by arrows, his body was full of blood holes, and there were bruises on his face that were beaten out by the iron dog and the second tiger.

"His neighbor said he had seen the county lord go to his house before, can the county lord recognize this person?"

It has been several years since Hua Rong went to see Sanniang, and this neighbor is afraid that he will have such a good memory after receiving money.

Hua Rong didn't speak, and Yue Qing glared at the person who asked: "Verifying the identity of the deceased is what the people of the government should do, if anyone can bite the county lord, what else do you want you to do?" ”

After all, Yueqing was trained in the palace, and she was not afraid of dealing with people in the government at all.

The person who asked the question didn't take the flower in his eyes, thinking that she was a soft persimmon that could be handled casually, but who knew that the maid next to her had thorns as soon as she opened her mouth.

He didn't want to be pressed down by a little maid, so he sank his face and scolded coldly: "The government has its own reason, how can you be a slave who can put your beak?" ”

"The slave maid went to serve the county lord on the order of the queen's mother, just for the county lord to give up this life, the government is unreasonable, why can't the slave and maid ask?"

Yueqing was not frightened, and argued with reason.

When the man heard that Yueqing was a person from the palace, his face changed slightly, and then he heard Yueqing say: "The county lord has a noble status, it is impossible to get acquainted with any indiscreet people, as for some old things before, Your Majesty is afraid that the county lord will be sad and no one is allowed to mention it, do you still want to deliberately block the county lord?" ”

Yueqing was so articulate that the man couldn't speak.

Hua Rong then spoke: "I do know him, but I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know why he died suddenly and tragically." ”

"But ......"

The man wanted to ask something else, but before the words fell, Jiang Yunhua strode in with a calm face.

"Jiang Tingwei, why are you here?"

The man tensed, his voice a little weak.

Jiang Yunhua glanced at Hua Rong first, and then looked at the man after making sure she was fine: "The county lord of Lingqing is the orphan of King Qi, who gave you the right to summon her?" ”

"My subordinates heard that the deceased knew the county lord, so I wanted to ......"

Jiang Yunhua directly interrupted: "The dead one is a gambler, he has been wandering gambling houses, wine shops and Fengyue places all year round, have you checked those places?" ”

The man was at a loss, and he didn't dare to defend anymore, and whispered: "The subordinates know their mistakes, please punish them!" ”

"Twenty canes and two months!"

"Yes!"

After the man left, Jiang Yunhua's face eased and looked at Hua Rong: "The county lord is frightened, please come with me." ”
