2660. Chapter 2660 Xiao Xian's life experience 【01】
Qu Shui knew that this matter was of great importance, so he put away his trademark lazy smile and said seriously: "Princess, don't worry, I will definitely fulfill my mission."
Shen Mingzhu asked Xiao Xian to go aside first and not to eavesdrop on their conversation, let alone eavesdrop with internal force.
Then she told Qu Shui several questions, and also taught him how to talk about the Xie family and how to ask the questions she asked. She was even ready with the specific questions. All he needed was for Qu Shui to follow her instructions.
If so, just repeat it.
Qu Shui took the order and left Dali Temple all the way to Princess Yan.
Before dawn, two rows of red lanterns were hung outside the Guangliang gate of Prince Yan's Mansion, with the three official script words "Prince Yan's Mansion" written on the lanterns.
The seven rows and nine columns of sixty-three copper rivets on the vermilion palace gate gleamed under the light.
Qu Shui did not say hello to the gatekeeper at the door, but directly greeted the patrolling servants inside and outside the courtyard, then floated into the palace and went all the way to Concubine Xie's courtyard.
At this time, the sky had begun to get bright, but it was still hazy, but Concubine Xie usually went to bed early and got up early, and as she got a little older and had something on her mind, she would sleep lightly.
So when Qu Shui asked her personal maid Yu He to call her gently, she woke up immediately.
"Greetings to the concubine." Qu Shui stepped forward and knelt down, saluted and said hello.
Concubine Xie sat up and said through the bed curtain: "Qushui, please forgive me. Is there something urgent so early?"
Qu Shui nodded, "Toffee, the princess asked her subordinates to come to confirm something with the concubine."
As soon as Concubine Xie heard that Shen Mingzhu asked him to come, she immediately asked Yu He and Wenzhu to wait for her to get up, put on her cloak, and then sat on the big Kang near the window, and asked Qu Shui to sit down as well.
Qu Shui sat down on the chair he had taken and told Concubine Xie what Shen Mingzhu had told him.
Finally, he said: "Your Majesty, the Princess wants her subordinates to come and ask if she is an old acquaintance of the Xie family whose house was confiscated back then."
Hearing this, Concubine Xie's face changed obviously. She looked at Qu Shui in a daze before she continued: "Back then, the Xie family was divided into the south and the north. The two Xie families had little contact with each other. One was civil and the other military.
Being an official in the capital city, both civil and military, it is inevitable to have contacts. It's just that General Xie Jinwu is a bit arrogant, and our family doesn't like to hang out with them. In addition, they are the favorites of the late emperor..."
Concubine Xie spoke very slowly, with a hint of sadness uncontrollably showing on her face, as if it was something she tried her best to forget. She thought she had forgotten something that was not the same thing, but one day someone uncovered it, somewhere in her heart.
It still feels like a corner has collapsed, with some pain and some soreness.
Qu Shui did not interrupt her, but listened to her carefully.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Xie stopped talking and didn't want to continue talking. She asked, "Why did Mingzhu ask about General Xie's family?"
Qu Shui said: "My dear concubine, the princess said that there is something she doesn't want to hide from you, but she must say it. Because she has already felt the crisis brought about by that matter, that is the Prince of Yan County who you are trying so hard to cover up.
The secret you know."
"What? She, she knows?" Concubine Xie straightened up in shock and looked at Qushui with a panicked expression. But then she realized that she had lost her composure, and immediately returned to her dignified and indifferent appearance, slowly
