Chapter 4 Clues
When Gu Qinghuan woke up the next day, what he heard was howls from outside.

At this moment, the courtiers and wives have all knelt in the Chengqian Palace to show their grief.

"woke up?"

Yaqi was still guarding by the side of Gu Qinghuan's bed, seeing Gu Qinghuan waking up, she was busy serving tea and water.

Among the three maids selected by Aunt Yuehua to enter the palace, Gu Qinghuan and Wusuli Yaqi had actually only had a distant relationship in the past.

But since…

Ama in Yaqi's family was ill last month, and after Gu Qinghuan took her own money to subsidize her once, she was very grateful to herself.

This time, she was in a bad situation, and even more so, she stayed by the side of the bed.

"You're just guarding me like this, I'm exhausted." Gu Qinghuan was a little emotional, and asked, "Is there any news from Yunzhu?"

Don't be like the ones on TV.If something goes wrong, he commits suicide. Let's cut off all the clues.

Yaqi shook her head.

"Yun Zhu is just in charge of delivering meals. She only said that when she came to deliver your meals, she found you lying motionless and thought you were dead. She was afraid that there would be some commotion when Empress Daxing passed away, so she made her own proposals. "

"I see, although what she said is rigorous, it is still full of loopholes."

Yaqi thought for a while, and then said: "We come from a slightly cold background. Although Aunt Yuehua said that she would continue to investigate. But I think she is as busy as a spinning top, so she may not be able to help us."

When Gu Qinghuan heard it, he understood.

This matter, you have to check it yourself.

Since she herself became ill more than a month ago, she may have been killed by someone.As for whether it's this Yunzhu...it's still open to debate.

"I'm fine now."

Gu Qinghuan thought for a while, got up and put on his clothes, and said: "At any rate, my aunt personally picked us out. It's not unreasonable to be sick all the time. We should go to the Queen's funeral to watch over us."

"Are you... all right?" Yaqi was worried about Gu Qinghuan's bravado, and wanted to persuade her, but she saw the determination on Gu Qinghuan's face.

Yes.The three of them who can be picked by Aunt Yuehua are naturally not the ones who will collapse when the wind blows.

At the other end of the mourning hall, Aunt Yuehua heard that Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi were coming, so she got up and went over to take a look.

"Are you alright?"

Aunt Yuehua took a look at Gu Qinghuan.

Yesterday when Zhang Tingyu came back carrying Gu Qinghuan who was in the straw mat, her face was pale and bloodless, and Aunt Yuehua was shocked.

"It's much better." Gu Qinghuan succumbed, and said: "The empress is dead. The servant girl is uneasy, and still wants to come to serve the spirit. By the way... I would like to thank Mr. Zhang."

Aunt Yuehua nodded, pointed in the direction of Zhang Tingyu for Gu Qinghuan, and said: "Later, when everyone is gone, let's go."

"Yes." Gu Qinghuan complied, and followed the crowd to kneel in front of the spirit of Empress Daxing.

There were sobbing and whimpering all around.

Listening to these cries, Gu Qinghuan recalled the scene of watching her mother die in front of the hospital bed, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Aunt Yuehua saw all this calmly, and was a little more satisfied with Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi.

The whole day of crying finally ended, and most of the people wanted to leave with hoarse voices.

Gu Qinghuan finally found an opportunity and came to Zhang Tingyu.

Zhang Tingyu's knee was sore, he helped Ama by his side, and was about to leave.

"Young Master Zhang stay behind."

When Gu Qinghuan shouted, Zhang Tingyu and his son turned their heads in unison.

Zhang Tingyu recognized Gu Qinghuan at a glance, whispered something to Ama beside him, and walked over.

"Is it you? Are you okay? Those slaves are really hateful! They should be severely punished."

"I'm fine." Gu Qinghuan said: "Thank you Mr. Zhang for saving the servant. The servant has nothing to repay, and I will definitely find a chance to repay you in the future."

Zhang Tingyu hurriedly waved his hands to express that he didn't need it, and then asked, "How are those servants who hurt you now?"

"Eunuch Cheng?" Gu Qinghuan said: "Little Chunzi under his hand said that he took the money from someone and thought I was dead, so he wanted to send me out of the palace."

"But the person who thought I was dead only found me lying motionless on the bed when the meal was delivered in the morning, and didn't reveal anything else."

"... "

After hearing this, Zhang Tingyu really couldn't draw any conclusions. After thinking about it, she could only say: "With Aunt Yuehua here, she will definitely give an explanation. You still need to take care of yourself first."

Gu Qinghuan nodded, asked Zhang Tingyu a few more details about that day, then turned and left.

What Zhang Tingyu said was the same as what Yaqi told her.It seems that if she wants to get more information, she has to meet that Yun Zhu again.

In the kitchen of Chengqian Palace.

Yun Zhu was holding her own baggage and wanted to leave in despair.

When Gu Qinghuan passed by, he happened to bump into Yunzhu.

"You are..."

Yaqi didn't know why, so she stepped forward and blocked Yunzhu's way.

With a blank expression on her face, Yun Zhu cast a cold glance at Gu Qinghuan and the two of them, and said, "I was wrong. I thought you were dead, so let Eunuch Cheng send you away as soon as possible to get over the bad luck."

"Now Aunt Yuehua is going to punish me to go to the Clothes Bureau, so it can be regarded as compensation for you."

At Aunt Yuehua's place, after the investigation into Yunzhu, there was nothing more to say.Yunzhu insisted on what happened, and Aunt Yuehua couldn't find out more details.

In this way, it can only be punished in this way.

The Clothes Bureau, that is the place where you have to wash clothes from morning till night.Compared with the small kitchen in Chengqian Palace, it is indeed a heaven and an underground.

"Historically, palace maids always have a thin coffin and subsidize some money for their family members after passing away."

Gu Qinghuan clenched her fists tightly, and asked, "You are just a court lady sweeping the floor in the kitchen, how did you come to be so capable that you can even command Eunuch Cheng?"

"I heard that you gave five taels of silver back to go out. I'm afraid you have to go without food or drink for half a year to accumulate these five taels of silver?"

To the point, Yunzhu's complexion did not change at all.

"I just don't eat or drink for half a year, so what if I want to throw you out?"

Yunzhu said: "Why are you the one selected by Aunt Yuehua to serve Brother Si? I'm not reconciled, so what if I want to kill you?"

"It's because I'm not as good as others. I thought that if you were sick, I could get you away without anyone noticing. Unexpectedly, you are lucky, and there are noble people who saved you!"

After Yun Zhu finished yelling, she threw down the burden in her hands, and was about to come up and scratch Gu Qinghuan waving her paws.

Lu Qinghuan hurriedly kicked back, but bumped into someone better.

At the same time, the hand that Yun Zhu just stretched out was also grabbed by another stronger hand.

"What are you doing?"

A stern voice came from behind, and all the people in the courtyard knelt down one after another.

"Fourth elder brother!"
