first class maid

Chapter 39
As soon as he got out of the gate of the Shang Palace Bureau, Xun Zhen couldn't help but say, "Master Shang Gong, there are still doubts about Xie Sizhi's death, should we let it go like this?"

Xu You glanced at her, then looked at the blue sky, "You also know that dead bodies cannot be kept in the palace. Whether Xie Yuzi committed suicide or homicide, the important thing is that she has confessed to her crime and died. We don't have the right to pursue it to the end. If she still Alive, that's okay."

The coldness on Xun Zhen's body was even worse, the life of a court lady was indeed worthless, and the grass and trees were flourishing, and there were still literati and poets to remember.

The next day, Mo Huayi, Yu Ruyi and others involved in the case were all released, but Nalu Caiping was stripped of her tongue and demoted to be a rough envoy for making rumors.

In the middle of the night, when Xun Zhen got up to go to the toilet, she passed a bunch of flowers, and there was a smell in the air, as if something was burning. She followed this smell slowly, and saw someone unexpectedly During sacrifices, throwing paper money into the brazier, which is the most taboo thing in the palace, just sparks, and the outline and face of that person are clearly presented in front of the eyes.

As if feeling her gaze, Mo Huayi turned his head to look in Xun Zhen's direction, and the two looked at each other across the air, one silent and the other slightly provocative.

Mo Huayi washed out the sparks in the basin with water without haste, and then sprinkled the water in the copper basin into the inner river in the palace, and walked towards Xun Zhen as before, "What about you?" I can't grasp the reason to sue, Xun Zhen, I will keep the matter of my aunt in my heart."

"That's what you and Xie Sizhi are to blame for, no one else, and I don't intend to tell Mr. Shang Gong what I saw tonight." Xun Zhen didn't want to argue with her and turned to leave. There is no evidence, and secondly, she has also experienced the feelings when her relatives passed away.

"Do you think I will be grateful to you if you do this?" Mo Huayi sneered.

Xun Zhen looked back at her, "I haven't done anything for you to be grateful for, so you don't need to be grateful."

Mo Huayi stood there with the copper plate in his arms and looked at her leaving back, with resentment in his eyes, thinking of the paper that was handed to her by the man in the mysterious cloak that day in the prison of the Shang Palace Bureau, The last letter left by her aunt was full of warmth, expressing that she would not be involved in the crime if one person was to bear the crime, but she must avenge her after she went out. If she hadn't recognized her aunt's handwriting, she would have thought it was the person who was there on purpose. trick her.

"Auntie, Qiong Huayi will let the person who killed you go to Huangquan to keep you company throughout his life."

Concubine Feng Gui could not sleep peacefully at night, worrying about many past events, got up and read the scriptures for a long time before she felt a lot of peace of mind, suddenly the door of the secret room was pushed open by someone "babbling", and someone came in quietly.

"Miss."

Concubine Feng looked back at the man taking off the cloak, "Is everything settled?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, now that Xie Yuzi is dead, the Empress will not catch her. Besides, I have also kept the kindling that the Shanggong Bureau should keep. It's just that it's not appropriate to take any more actions now."

Concubine Feng stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, the gratitude on her face didn't seem to be feigned, "Why do you still help me like this?"

"Your Majesty's great kindness to my servants is always remembered by your servants, but it is not easy to have too much contact with your Majesty on a daily basis. It is not easy to hide it from the eyes and ears of the two empresses, Situ Hui and Xu You. I’m afraid that even I will pay for this rectification.”

"Even you don't know the karma between them and the queen?" Concubine Feng tried to win over the two, but in the end it was fruitless. It is not easy to become a diehard loyalist.

The man shook his head, "I've tested the inside and outside of the words, but it's a pity that they are all very smart, but I have vaguely found out that it has something to do with their antagonism back then. As for what it is, don't worry. The servants will come to report the empress's affairs as soon as possible. It's just that after this incident, the queen's power in the harem has become more stable, so the empress should avoid the front for the time being."

Concubine Feng Gui smiled and nodded at her concern, "I know." Seeing the man put on his cloak and leave, she knelt back in front of the Bodhisattva and recited scriptures. So what if it's covered in blood?

Yu Wenchun, who was in the corner of the Guiqi Palace, watched the man in the cloak melt into the night and hurried away. He looked at his mother's bedroom with complicated eyes, and left quietly with his hands on his head, finally Still not working?

Xun Zhen, who was walking quickly, was not indifferent to the resentful gaze behind him. After passing through the corridor, he opened the door and went in. Seeing that Lu Rong's breathing was long and seemed to be sleeping well, he was relieved and pushed Qian Fang'er, who was sleeping beside her, said, "Fang'er, I'll just watch over here, you can go back to sleep."

"Is this okay? Master Shanggong told me to stay here."

"It's okay, I'll take care of it."

Only then did Qian Fang'er get up and leave.

Xun Zhen felt sleepless, poured himself a bowl of cold tea, stood in front of the window with his clothes on and looked at the dark night outside, thinking of his own mother and aunt, wondering how they are doing now?After seven years of separation, I really want to see them again.

This rectification did not take much time. The high-ranking maids of each bureau have been rotated to varying degrees, and one-third of the personnel have also gone.

The Shanggong Bureau also gradually restored the tranquility of the past. Today is Xun Zhen’s first day in charge, and he changed into the clothes he was in charge of. Standing in front of the bronze mirror and looking at it, he always felt a little awkward, so he sat down. She picked up the wooden comb and was about to comb her long hair when suddenly someone grabbed her wooden comb and looked back to see it was Lu Rong, "Rongrong, what are you doing?"

Lu Rong combed her long hair with a smile, and joked: "Zhen'er, you are in control now, why don't I rush to curry favor with you?"

"So what about control? Isn't it your sister?"

Lu Rong braided her hair in a bun, then pinned the hairpin on and inserted a purple silk flower, "If you weren't my good sister, I wouldn't come here, it's done, we are so beautiful." Pressing on Xun Zhen's shoulders, the two looked at the youthful face in the bronze mirror, "Zhen'er, how about choosing me as your female history later?"

"Rongrong, don't you feel wronged?" Xun Zhen turned around and grabbed her hand.

"Are you my sister, would you abuse me? Besides, it's my right to be in charge. I'm going to come to you to be lazy, and it's justifiable to be lazy with you covering me in the future." Lu Rong laughed.
