Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 679 Confession
Gu Xiang sighed, stuffed the things in his hand back, and closed the whole box.

Zhang Ming stared eagerly, but he didn't see what Gu Xiang was pinching in his hand, and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Gu Xiang turned around and saw Zhang Ming's expression, so he smiled and said softly, "It's a good thing you haven't seen this thing before."

If I have seen it, I am afraid that I will not be able to live now.

"Snow Eagle, let the deceased be buried in the ground... We are going home."

As for Zhang Ming, Gu Xiang hesitated for a while, but he didn't kill him. He directly asked Xue Ying to tie him up, and didn't send him to Wangzhi County. Instead, he found a tiger's cave in the mountains around Guzhuang, and tied him up. Tuck it in and settle down.

There is still an imperial envoy to be found, who needs to see people in life and corpses in death.Moreover, when Gu Xiang saw the contents of the box in the coffin, he suddenly felt that everyone involved would not be able to die. It would be better to live as long as possible and send them to the capital, hand them over to the Imperial City Secretary, and hand them over to the emperor for disposal.

The first volume of letters that Gu Xiang turned out was the confession of an eunuch.

The eunuch claimed to be surnamed Li, and was assigned to the Luanfeng Pavilion of the Lanmei people 20 years ago. He has been in charge of pouring the night incense.

Originally, eunuch Li would probably live in the palace all his life. When he was old, he would live his retirement life in the palace like other eunuchs who were old and frail.

It was only later that he had parents and a younger brother outside the palace. The younger brother was ill. He couldn't hold back that year, so he stole some things from the palace and gave them to his parents.

Things like this, once you do it, you become addicted, and you can't stop it.

Eunuch Li is also an ordinary person, and like ordinary people, he is getting more and more comfortable with these things. He has been in charge of pouring Ye Xiang, and no one is willing to investigate carefully. One of the eunuchs serving the Empress Dowager in the Baoci Palace in the palace was arrested.

Unexpectedly, the eunuch was very merciful and did not send him off, but instead adopted him as a godson. At first, eunuch Li was very grateful to the eunuch, and he was really filial to him as an elder godfather, and he was as filial as the elders in the palace. It's different, their life as eunuchs is much more difficult. At any rate, the maids still have a chance to go out of the palace to marry, but they don't. If they have similar temperaments and no conflicts of interest, it is better to report to the group for warmth. Better to be alone.

But he never thought that the eunuch's purpose in accepting him was not pure.

The eunuch also often communicated inside and outside, sending things out of the palace, and transporting things from outside the palace to the palace.

This dynasty's palace is strictly forbidden, it's not a joke.

Even if Eunuch Li stole some items from the palace, it was because of his condition that he was in charge of pouring Ye Xiang, and he didn't dare to steal any big items, they were all small items that could not be seen carefully.

Seeing his godfather doing these things, Eunuch Li was naturally afraid, so his godfather comforted him, saying that father and son are nothing but small people, and if the sky falls, there will be a taller one to support them, so what are they afraid of.

He thought so, and his parents were old and weak, and his brother was young and in poor health. He was short of money and money, so he gritted his teeth, ruthlessly, and continued to do it.

For more than half a year, he worked carefully and never made a mistake, and gradually he felt that this was not a big deal.

Indeed, as his godfather said, the water in the palace is deep, and their father and son are small shrimps, eating leftovers coldly. There are many eunuchs and maids who secretly do this kind of moneyless business, and he becomes more calm in doing things. As a result, a year Much later, something big happened.

That year the most favored concubine in the palace, Concubine Lan, was pregnant. The imperial doctor in the palace said it was a son. Everyone in the palace was very happy, and the emperor was even more happy.

On the day when Concubine Lan gave birth, Eunuch Li received an errand from his godfather. When his godfather asked him to do work that day, he deliberately knocked Ye Xiang down and fell on the path north of Luanfeng Pavilion superior.

The godfather gave a lot of money, and Eunuch Li just acted like some empress in the palace hated Concubine Lan and wanted to make her feel unhappy on this day.

Although this is an errand that must be punished, His Majesty is merciful, and it is the day of Concubine Lan's birth, so blood must not be seen.

He reckoned that at most it would be a fine of some salary.

But the reward given by his godfather was much higher than the salary.That day, he listened to his godfather and obediently followed the instructions from above. When the baby was crying in Empress Lan's bedroom, he pretended to be careless and knocked Ye Xiang to the ground.

Immediately there was chaos on the road, he was fined half a year's monthly salary, and several eunuchs pointed their noses and scolded him, and made him clean the toilet for three months, but as he expected, Empress Lan Fei gave birth to a big Prince, the whole world is celebrating, and His Majesty is naturally happy too. He is also safe and has passed the customs safely.

The eldest prince born by Empress Lan Fei did not survive safely, but in March, the child died of illness, apparently healthy at birth, but in the end it turned out like this.

He was just like the others, and it was enough to regret a few times, even if it was His Majesty, and the one who went was His Majesty's prince, it didn't have much to do with him.

But that day when he went to deliver snacks to his godfather, the ground was slippery, and he accidentally fell down. The whole person accidentally touched the mechanism and fell into a dark pothole.

As soon as he fell in, he heard his godfather was arguing with someone, maybe he was too involved in the quarrel, and he didn't notice him.

On that day, Eunuch Li discovered a major event—his godfather, and two other eunuchs, secretly changed the prince of Concubine Lan!
The prince who died was actually Li Daitao's stiff fake. The real prince had asked them to collude with Mrs. Wen and the court lady as early as the day Concubine Lan gave birth, and the eunuch gave...

Eunuch Li was so frightened that his whole body trembled and his teeth seemed to be chattering. He didn't know what he did, but he was so lucky that he crawled out safely.

This is not just a matter of losing his head. If this matter is exposed, he, his parents, and brothers will not be able to live.

Eunuch Li insisted on keeping his mouth shut, and after suffering for more than half a year, he slowly contracted a serious disease, and begged his godfather to save him and let him go out of the palace.

Even though his godfather did such a decapitation business, he still had half a cent of sincerity towards him, and he tried his best to curry favor with his filial piety on weekdays.

Eunuch Li originally wanted to rot in his stomach for the rest of his life, but a few years later, his parents and brothers were gone, and he himself was seriously ill. Well, if the nobleman wanted to investigate this matter, he simply told the truth about everything he knew, signed and pledged, and promised that if the nobleman needed it, he could go to His Majesty to explain the matter at any time.

"But now the statement remains here."

This is the story, right?
Gu Xiang glanced at the box in Xue Ying's hand, which seemed to be as light as a feather, and suddenly missed An Guogong a little bit.

It's not how dependent she is on that noble man, it's just a matter of the moment, she really wants to be the hands-off shopkeeper.

Throwing it to the professionals of the Imperial City Division is obviously the best choice.
