Si Xi didn't understand why and said: "To tell you the truth, Xiao Wu is indeed my disciple. He was the one who welcomed the queen when she entered the palace."
Ling Ruo spoke clearly and clearly: "I want to ask my father-in-law to let Xiao Wu go to the Prince's Mansion. I said that if Concubine Jin has something to do, please ask the second elder brother to come to the palace."
"Empress Jinfei?" Si Xi raised her head in astonishment. Everyone knew that Imperial Concubine Jin and her second elder brother had never had any contact with each other, and they didn't talk to each other very much on weekdays. How could they come to see the second elder brother for something and specifically talk to her?
Talking about this matter, he asked Xiao Wu to tell the second elder brother. After thinking for a while, he still couldn’t figure it out. He said carefully: "Can I please allow me to ask more, why does Concubine Jin not let her palace servants tell the second elder brother?
"
"This is exactly what I want Eunuch Xi to help with, and I hope Eunuch Xi won't ask too many questions. In addition, Xiao Wu went to pass on the second elder brother like this, but when he asked Concubine Jin why she wanted to pass on the second elder brother, Eunuch Xi simply said
Xiao Wu heard wrongly, the person Concubine Jin really wants to pass on is the fourth elder brother." Ling Ruo heard this and Si Xi became even more confused, "May I ask, which elder brother Concubine Jin wants to pass on?"
"It's the second elder brother, but when I asked, he said it was the fourth elder brother. I wonder if my father-in-law can help me with this?" If Sixi refused, he would have to ask the palace attendants around the Guarjia family to tell the story, but
Far inferior to Xiao Wu, the apprentice of the chief internal manager.
It has weight. It is very likely that Hongshi will not pay attention to the summons. If he does not enter the palace, then all the plans will become empty talk. If not for this concern, Ling Ruo would not have said this to Sixi and directly asked Guar
Jia's family just needs to send a palace official to spread the news.
"This..." Si Xi hesitated and didn't dare to agree. This kind of thing can be big or small. If something happened, he, a slave, couldn't bear it. When Concubine Xi opened her mouth, he really didn't know what to do.
If he refused, if it had not been for the help of Imperial Concubine Xi, he might have died.
Ling Ruo saw his worry and said: "Don't worry, Eunuch Xi, nothing will happen to you. Besides, you can just excuse yourself and say that Xiao Wu misunderstood. It won't involve you and Xiao Wu."
Seeing what Ling Ruo said, Si Xi gritted his teeth and agreed. After returning to the Yangxin Hall, he called Xiao Wu to him and said: "Go to Prince Ding's Mansion immediately, and ask the second elder brother to go to Xian."
Fu Palace, Concubine Jin wants to see him for something."
Xiaowu said inexplicably: "Master, if Concubine Jin has something to do, why do you want us to tell it?"
How could Si Xi explain it? He was still confused. He slapped Xiao Wu on the back of his head and said, "Where's all this nonsense coming from? Just go if we ask you to. Hurry up and don't miss anything."
"Yes, Master." Xiaowu agreed aggrievedly, and quickly went to the Jingsi Room to get his waist badge. When he arrived at Prince Ding's Mansion, Hongshi was in the mansion. On the recommendation of his servant, he went to Hongshi's study and said respectfully: "
I would like to pay my respects to the prince."
With Hongshi's current status, he can still be called the second elder brother in the palace, but outside the palace, he has a title commensurate with it.
Hongshi walked down and said: "Get up, you came to see me, but did you follow the emperor's order?"
Xiao Wu accompanied him with a smile and said: "To tell you what the prince is saying, it is not the emperor, but Concubine Jin who asked me to come here and ask my second elder brother to go to Xianfu Palace if I have something to do."
"Concubine Jin?" Hongshi suddenly frowned. In his memory, he had no contact with this empress. He was asked to go to Xianfu Palace for no reason, and he still asked Xiao Wu to pass on this message.
"If it's Concubine Jin's wish, why are you here to pass it on?" Hong Shi's words stunned Xiao Wu. If only he knew, he rolled his eyes back and forth and said with a smile, "In return to the prince,
The master asked the slave to teach it, but I don’t know why.”
Hongshi didn't ask further, just thinking about what the Guarjia family called him to go to, and to pass it on through Sixi. Could it be that what the Gualjia family wanted to say had something to do with Huang Ama? If that was the case.
, he had to go.
Xiaowu waited for a long time without seeing Hongshi speak, and whispered: "Your Majesty, you..."
Hongshi knew what he wanted to say, waved his hand and said: "You go back to the palace first, I will go to Xianfu Palace later."
Seeing Hongshi say this, Xiaowu said knowingly: "Hey, I'm resigning."
Shortly after Xiao Wu left, Hongshi came out of the study and said to Wang Zhong who was following him: "Prepare the sedan chair for me, because I want to enter the palace." After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to go to the palace.
When he arrived at Xianfu Palace, Congxiang Chao Hongshi Fu Yifu said: "Your Majesty is talking to Mr. Zhang in the side hall. I will take you there."
"Master Zhang, which Master Zhang?" Hongshi asked strangely. Ordinary officials are not allowed to enter the harem. Unless they are like Yingge, the younger brother of the queen, or they have obtained permission from Yinzhen, otherwise they are regarded as
Breaking into the palace without permission.
"The second elder brother is talking about Mr. Zhang Chengzhang who has just been ordered to return to Beijing from Tianjin. When the emperor was still in the dormitory, he served the emperor. He seemed to be called... called..."
While Congxiang was still trying to think of a name, Hongshi already had some impressions, "Didn't you call me a dog before?"
Cong Xiang nodded repeatedly and said: "Second elder brother has a good memory, so he is called Dog." As she said this, she led Hongshi to the side hall. As soon as she pushed the door open a crack, she saw a palace man rushing towards him.
, eagerly said: "Auntie, just now the master asked the slave to get a ginseng to make ginseng soup, but for some reason all the ginseng in the warehouse was rotten. There were more than a dozen branches. This... what should I do?
?”
Upon hearing this, Congxiang also became anxious and asked: "How could the good ones rot? Is it because the people in the warehouse were careless and allowed these ginseng to get damp?"
"I don't know!" The palace servant was almost crying as he spoke. Seeing this, Congxiang said quickly, "Okay, please take me to see it quickly." Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered that Hongshi was still there.
, hurriedly said: "Second Brother, the master is inside, how about you go in by yourself?"
Although Congxiang's words made Hongshi feel a little uncomfortable, he didn't say much, nodded and allowed Congxiang to leave with the palace man.
After they walked away, Hongshi opened the door and was about to go in when he suddenly heard an exclamation from inside. The voice should be Guarjia's. It was strange. What surprised her so much? Or did Zhang Cheng tell her?
What?
Thinking like this, Hongshi's hand holding the door involuntarily stopped, and he leaned a little closer to the palace door, listening carefully to the voices inside.
"Zhang Cheng, is everything you said true?" Guarjia stared at Zhang Cheng with a face filled with shock, with a tremor in her voice.
Zhang Cheng shook his head and said: "How could Wei Chen lie to Concubine Jin? It's absolutely true. Alas, if I hadn't mentioned it to you today, Wei Chen wouldn't have said this."
"I didn't expect that the queen would use such insidious means to kill Ye in order to get her second elder brother. I am totally shocked when I hear this."
