rich concubine

Chapter 2289 The Inner Ghost
Full of anger, Ruan Chuyin returned to Xiangxiyuan. As soon as she entered the gate, she saw a maid cleaning outside. The maid lowered her head when she saw her, making her doubtful. Could this be the snarky girl? ?He is really brave. He does things inside her door, and his mouth and ears have grown outside the door.

"Call everyone in the courtyard to my room. I have something to ask." After saying this, she went in.

The maid hurriedly went to call for someone, but after a while, three or five maids stood in front of her neatly in a row. Like stars, they closed the doors and windows and stood beside her.

Ruan Chuyin glanced at her without saying anything, then looked at the people below and said, "I heard that someone was crying and howling in my courtyard in the middle of the night. You guys also live in the courtyard, have you ever heard it? sound?"

Several people looked at each other, and then shook their heads. Only the maid who was sweeping the house said, "I didn't hear the other voices. I just heard the sound of your wife getting up to pour water at night. I wonder if your wife has the habit of talking in her sleep. Sometimes this slave girl talks in her sleep at night." When I got up, I heard noises from my wife’s room.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the lady looking at her with a half-smile, and the next second, Ruxing walked up to her, raised her hand and slapped her, the maid who was beaten was startled, knelt down quickly, and looked at her without knowing why. To the lady.

Ruxing squinted her eyes and scolded: "You eat everything inside and out! You dare to make trouble for me in front of the concubine. I don't think you want that face anymore."

The maid was panic-stricken. After hearing this, she shook her head repeatedly. Looking at the lady who was staring at her coldly, she hurriedly said: "I don't know! Since I came to Xiangxi Garden, I rarely go out. Even if I go out, I have never been to Changliu, and I don’t dare to stir up trouble with my master!”

Ruan Chuyin said: "You got up in the middle of the night and stared at the movements in my house. Is this a coincidence?"

She shook her head repeatedly, took two steps forward, and said, "I just get up late at night, and my latrine has to pass by your door. Sometimes I hear noises in the middle of the night, thinking that I am thirsty at night, and knowing that you don't like to be served at night, I think you get up to pour water." , As for what you said... I really just listened to the sound and didn't listen carefully!"

"Madam, even if you give me courage, I will not dare to talk nonsense behind my master's back!"

By the time he finished speaking, he was already trembling.

"Then why did you feel guilty when you saw me just now?" Ruan Chuyin still didn't believe it. As soon as she walked in, she looked at her guilty look and didn't dare to look at her. It was clear that something was wrong.

The maid explained: "It was my slave... when I went to clean your house, I accidentally spilled the tea and wetted your writing. That's why I was afraid..."

Ruan Chuyin frowned and was about to say something when Ruyue on the other side said: "What Xiaoya said is true. The slaves usually buy very few things. She has hardly left the door these days. When she went out, she went straight to the outside of the house and never went in the direction of Changliu. When she was cleaning, the slave girl was beside her. She was far away at the time. Before she could stop it, the teacup fell down. Speaking of which, it was the slave girl. Negligence, I should have poured out the tea a long time ago."

Hearing this, Ruan Chuyin fell silent and took a deep breath. She thought she had caught the person who spread the rumors so quickly.

Thinking about it carefully, this Xiaoya really doesn't seem to have that courage. When I see her on weekdays, she is so submissive, with her head buried in her chest, and she doesn't dare to speak loudly. How dare she spread gossip.

Ruxing said: "But it's true that you are unruly. You got the master's handwriting wet, and you passed by the master's door at night and had to listen to what happened. This habit is not a good one."

After the words fell, Ruan Chuyin's face darkened again, and before Xiaoya could speak, she said: "Ten Commandments Ruler, go down and receive the reward."

This punishment was not too severe. Xiaoya held her chest in her arms and retreated, her tears still flowing uncontrollably.

Xiaoya was gone, but things were not over yet. She had to catch this mole. Anyone who dared to stir up trouble in her place and make her uneasy must be prepared to be taught a lesson.

However, after some inquiries, everyone here has no suspicion. If not, then there is some suspicion, whether minor or serious.It's really not easy to search for someone like this, and her attitude when she was talking about Xiaoya was even more frightening, so the search ended in vain.

After everyone in the room had gone out, Ruxing said, "Is it possible that the Crown Princess saw that you were living a comfortable life and deliberately used words to comfort you? I have never heard any wailing sounds."

Ruyue also said: "My servants have never heard of it. It's very strange. The palace is heavily guarded, and the masters are usually gentle and kind to their servants. So there will be some wailing sounds anywhere."

Ruan Chuyin pursed his lips and said nothing, his mind was in a mess.

The more she failed to find out, the more suspicious she became. It was groundless, how could it be possible?Someone must have heard something and spread something. Now it is just the wailing sound. Then in a few days, wouldn't her courtyard be a sieve with holes?

"The important thing is not that someone spread the news, right? It's that the person who spread the news dares to spread the news outside my yard. This person is disloyal and I can't keep him here."

"You two, be more alert, listen and watch carefully. If there is any trouble outside, don't let it go. If you really catch the little thief, you will naturally give him good results."

The two accepted the order and said no more words.

That night, Jiang Yimin came, and Ruan Chuyin told him about the matter with tears in his eyes.

"I know that I am incompetent and can't manage the people below me. Someone is causing trouble in this courtyard, and I don't know who it is. The Crown Princess has given me a difficult problem, but I don't know how to solve it. How can I solve it?" Beautiful, I feel really uncomfortable."

Jiang Yimin said: "Since she said it, you should ask clearly who told this matter in front of her and asked her to hand him over."

"But the Crown Princess didn't say anything. Why didn't I ask? She said, she was afraid that she would be retaliated against by me if she told her. God, what kind of heinous person am I? Will I take revenge on others? It would scare people to death if I said it. "

Jiang Yimin frowned, unwilling to listen to her talk about such trivial matters anymore, and only said: "The imperial concubine is the one who decides what happens in the backyard. If you encounter injustice, go to the imperial concubine and make it clear. If you feel angry, then Find out who is behind this, I don’t care about the affairs of the inner court."

After saying these words, she choked back everything she wanted to say. Ruan Chuyin stopped crying, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said hurriedly: "You really shouldn't disturb the prince's purity with these trivial matters. This matter is still I’ll figure it out myself, but what should I do if I really catch the person behind it?”

"This is what the Crown Princess should worry about. If you can catch the person, leave it to the Crown Princess to deal with it. If she manages it unfairly, then deal with it according to family rules."

After hearing the words, Ruan Chuyin felt half at ease and said "yes" hurriedly.
