When the old woman took the heavy gold hairpin, she already looked uneasy.
Hearing Concubine Taisun ask her name, she became even more panicked: "I have a low status, how can I deserve a name? Everyone in the palace calls me Aunt Zhuang..."
"Mother Zhuang." Ya Ge intercepted her words and her tone became sincere: "I am new here and I am not familiar with everything. I just need a caring person. From now on, you will follow me."
When Aunt Zhuang heard this, she was stunned at first, then she was flattered, and immediately knelt down to thank her, Mingzhi: "It is a blessing that I have earned over several lifetimes to be appreciated by my empress. I swear that I will be loyal to your empress. Otherwise, I will not be able to teach you."
What a death!"

Then he said: "Mother Zhuang, don't think too much. I just want to know more about His Highness. Don't worry, no matter what you say in front of me, I guarantee that it will only go in and out of my ears!"
Aunt Zhuang is an old person in this palace, and she also wants to find a supporter for herself, so that she can always rely on her.

But it was nothing more than the imperial edict in the dream.
Ya Ge already knew this. What she wanted to know was what happened after the execution of the nine clans of the Li family.
For example, what happened to the virtuous concubine after she was demoted to a commoner? What does "gone" mean?
Aunt Zhuang recalled it and said: "It's really hard to tell what happened after that. Concubine De became a commoner and was thrown into the cold palace. But a few days later, the cold palace caught fire. Afterwards, the Imperial Guards carried out a body.
The burnt body was said to be that of Concubine De; Concubine De was just gone; but..."
