Chapter 329: The news behind the curtain blew through
One day after the rain, Ma Cairen came to Furong Palace with a palace maid.
After entering the door, tea was served, and the queen said to Liang Jing: "Go to my uncle's house, pick up half of the items that your majesty rewarded me yesterday, and send them over. Ask the princess again if there are any ready-made clouds.
There’s no slice of cake.”
"The cloud slice cake must be freshly steamed. The little one will wait half an hour for it." Liang Jing said, "The talent just happened to be here. Let's talk to my wife for a while to relieve my boredom."
The Queen smiled and said to Ma Cairen: "I am used to asking him to serve me. I always have to go through his hands for big and small matters. In fact, it is not impossible to send someone else for such a matter."
"Who doesn't know that Mr. Liang is the rarest thing? He is considerate, thoughtful and capable, and one person can stand up to a hundred. So we are not lucky," Ma Chunping also laughed, "Everyone in this world is well matched, like Mr. Liang."
An outstanding person should naturally be used in front of the Empress.
As for me, I only deserve to have two burnt papers by my side."
"Talent is ridiculous. How could the person you have trained be any worse?" Liang Jing has always been respectful to Ma Chunping and will not change anything because of her lower status.
After Liang Jing finished speaking, he turned around and went out.
Ma Cairen watched him walk out of the palace door, then lowered his head and took a sip of tea.
The queen asked her: "Has my sister heard anything these days?"
"I really did find out a lot," Ma Cairen put down the tea cup, "I just didn't dare to ask too detailed questions because I was afraid of disturbing others."
"Tell me what it is," the queen said.
"When the girl named Xue first entered the palace, Qian Sanchun, the manager of the Fourth Division, really wanted to give her to Manager Liang as a meal, but nothing happened later.
The empress also knew that Qian Sanchun committed suicide by throwing himself into a well out of fear of sin, but she didn't know whether it was because Xue refused to agree or because he didn't have time to complete it.
I have asked many people about this matter, and it is indeed true.
Last year's spring banquet was short of manpower, so Xue was temporarily transferred to the front.
I think your empress must still remember what happened when the palace lanterns were put out in the Taiye Pond, right?" Ma Cairen stared at the queen's expression as he spoke.
"But the wishing lotus said that she would be a crown princess?" Of course the queen still remembered, "That little palace maid is not named Xue."
"It's the little palace maid named Lin who is serving Qiongying now! That black cat only likes to be hugged by her." Ma Cairen said, "At that time, Manager Liang was asked to investigate the matter, but in the end it was not found out.
Is something wrong, Mr. Cairen?"
"What does this have to do with the person named Xue?" the queen asked, "I didn't know."
"Otherwise, this girl is hiding deep. She is the real insider in this matter." Ma Cairen said, "Xue Hengzhao and Lin Fufei lived in the same room at that time. After the magic lottery was discovered, the empress
Didn't they send someone to arrest Lin Fufei first? At that time, Xue Hengzhao asked her to follow him.
After meeting Manager Liang, Xue Hengzhao said that Lin Fufei was wrongly accused and she had a way to prove it."
Then he explained in detail how Xue Hengzhao peeled off Lin Fufei's cocoon.
He added: "This Lin Fufei is stupid. She still doesn't know what happened. She only knows that Xue Hengzhao saved her.
Since Xue Hengzhao later stopped her from coming to him, when Mr. Liang reported the situation to you, he must not have mentioned the palace maid named Xue, right?"
"Liang Jing didn't mention a word." The queen lowered her eyes and said, "I also specifically told him that what Yu Cairen did was a scandal and must be kept secret.
If some irrelevant palace maids and eunuchs find out, they must be removed as well."
"As for what General Manager Liang is thinking, I don't dare to speculate." Ma Cai said, "But in the past few days, someone saw General Manager Liang meeting the palace maid named Xue again. It didn't last long,
But something was passed on."
"What?" the queen asked.
"It's a cage, covered with green silk cloth. It was originally carried by Xue Hengzhao, but later she left empty-handed, and the cage was in the hands of Mr. Liang." Ma Cairen said, "But there was a little eunuch who was tending the flowers and trees and said that he
I saw it, it must be a gray rabbit inside."
"When did this happen? I want to know the exact time." As soon as the queen heard about the gray rabbit, a string in her head couldn't help but tighten.
"It's before the Dragon Boat Festival. It can't be wrong. I asked several people and they all said the same thing." Ma Cairen was very sure. "There was also a young palace maid who said, and then the manager Xiaoliang came over. If the empress wants to confirm it again,
You might as well ask him."
Manager Xiao Liang is Liang Jing’s apprentice Liang Xiao.
As soon as she said this, the queen made everything right in her mind.
The reason why I became suspicious of Concubine Xian was because of the rabbit Liang Jingti brought.
When he showed it to the sixth prince, he said it was the same as the one his mother and concubine raised.
But later Concubine Xian proved her innocence and dug up the dead rabbit that had been buried for a long time from the backyard of Jiaolan Palace.
She also asked Liang Jing where the rabbit came from, but Liang Jing just said in an understatement that it was brought in from outside the palace.
If it is true, as Ma Cairen said, that this rabbit was given to Liang Jing by Xue Heng, then she must also know everything about it.
Liang Jing's temperament and status as a queen were very clear. He was a very cautious person, but such a person would actually be so close to Xue Heng.
Putting aside everything else, it is unbearable for a little palace maid like Xue Hengzhao to get involved in the affairs of Ronghua Palace?!
"Mother, this is what I asked about, and there are only so many. Although it is not detailed, it can be seen that the palace maid named Xue is a scheming person, not an idle person. And she is in front of Concubine Fu.
She is highly valued, and Concubine Fu almost obeys her words. According to Concubine Chen, she must have deliberately approached Mr. Liang. As for what purpose, I dare not say for sure."
The queen asked Ma Cairen to investigate, mainly to see if there was any relationship between Liang Jing and Xue Hengzhao.
If the two people are not in conflict with each other, then there is no need to continue to investigate.
If there is indeed a connection between the two people, then the queen will continue to investigate and must find out the true story between the two.
"I understand, thank you. This matter should be kept secret from others." The queen smiled at Ma Cairen, "Don't look at me sitting in this seat, surrounded by people, it's so lively. In fact, I can trust you wholeheartedly.
Not many. Thanks to you, otherwise I really don’t know who else to trust."
The queen's words made Ma Cairen very sad. He lowered his head and smiled again: "I will depend on the queen for my whole life. Only when the queen is well can we, mother and daughter, be well. No matter when the time comes, I will always be happy."
