Although the master of Chengqian Palace is not favored, she is one of the four concubines after all. As the eldest maid of Chengqian Palace, Zhen'er has quite a bit of face in front of the nuns of the embroidery workshop.

She went around the embroidery workshop and soon got a clue.

"Master, I have found out clearly. The embroiderer sent by the embroidery workshop to embroider opera robes in Chuxiu Palace is called Aman. She was born in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and she is very good at embroidery."

"Where is she sent by the mother to work now?"

She Shuxian looked at Zhen'er.

Zhen'er's brain is not very good, but she is cautious in doing things. She Shuxian sent her to the embroidery workshop to inquire about the embroidered girl.She failed to bring Aman back, which means that Aman was not in the embroidery workshop when she went to the embroidery workshop.

"Aman has left the palace."

Zhen'er looked at She Shuxian and said in a low voice: "It is said that she had an affair with the guards and committed scandal in the imperial garden. After the Dongchuang incident happened, she was kicked out of the palace!"

"Having an affair with a guard?!"

She Shuxian sneered.

The guards with swords in the palace are all the most loyal and promising young people selected from the upper three banners. Apart from serving as imperial guards, these people also have other official positions. With the privilege of walking in front of you, the probability of getting ahead is much higher than that of ordinary officials.

It is also normal for the court ladies to climb up the high branch of the emperor's former guard instead of the emperor.

but--

Who can enter the palace but be a guard with a knife, who is a lustful person who can't control himself?

She Shuxian realized that there was something else going on, pretended to be angry, and said: "What a noble status as a guard with a sword in front of the imperial court, how could he be so unruly, dare to do such a thing in the palace!"

"This one……"

Zhen'er lowered her head and said in a low voice: "The disciple who did this is said to be the younger brother of the one in Changchun Palace, a famous man in front of the emperor, Fucha's bodyguard."

"Fucha bodyguard?"

That would be even more wrong.

The first time She Shuxian knew about Fu Heng was in "Book, Sword, Enmity and Enmity".

It is said in "Book of Swords and Enmity Records" that Fu Heng's wife was the most beautiful woman in the Eight Banners at that time. She entered the palace to take care of the sick Empress Fucha, but secretly communicated with Qianlong. And finally.Soon after, Fu Heng's wife gave birth to a son named Fukang'an.Fukang'an was favored by Qianlong since he was a child, and his official career was smoother than the most famous Heshen and Zhongtang in the Qianlong Dynasty.

How much credibility the unofficial history has is naturally impossible to verify, but it can also be seen from the unofficial history that Fu Heng is absolutely loyal to Qianlong, and has a very simple and honest personality.

Thinking about it the other way around, how could such a person who fears imperial power do things that ignore imperial power in the Forbidden City where the atmosphere of imperial power is the strongest?

"The Fucha family, who can raise a magnanimous, kind, motherly queen, will never raise a son who doesn't understand the rules and loves money and lust!"

She Shuxian resolutely denied the rumors that Aman and Fu Heng had an affair.

Zhen'er was not convinced, and said: "But all the nuns in the embroidery workshop say so."

"What did they say? Did they name Fu Heng?"

"No." Zhen'er said, "the mothers only said that the person who had an affair with Aman was an imperial guard who had a high status in front of the emperor, and that Miss Aman died of a sudden illness shortly after she was kicked out of the palace. The servant thought to himself , there are a few guards in the palace who have such courage and such great power, it must be..."

"Zhen'er, it's fine to talk about such unfounded words in front of me. Don't mention them anywhere other than Chengqian Palace."

She Shuxian said: "Even if this matter is really related to the Queen and Fu Heng, do you understand?"

"The servant understands that the servant will never cause trouble for Chengqian Palace."

Realizing that she almost made a big mess, Zhen'er hurriedly knelt down and thanked her.

She Shuxian waved her hand to let Zhen'er step back for now.

"Whoo!"

……

The door was closed, and sunlight shone into the room through the glass window, which was still a precious imported product at this time.

She Shuxian looked at that meter of light and fell into deep thought.

There is obviously something else going on about Aman's matter.

The rules of the Forbidden City are strict, and there are strict time rules for the daily life of the court ladies. In addition to doing embroidery work in the embroidery workshop, the palace ladies in the embroidery workshop usually go to the East and West Six Palaces to deliver embroidery and do embroidery work. Treat palace rules as nothing.

As for the imperial guards——

They are one of the few men who can walk freely in the imperial city except the emperor and the imperial physician, and their work and rest regulations will only be stricter than that of the palace maids. After the palace gate is locked, they must not be summoned and cannot leave their posts without authorization.

It can be seen from this that the rumors that Aman had an affair with Fucha Fuheng were 100% fabricated, and the purpose was to pour dirty water on the Changchun Palace.

"Except for Concubine Gao who once asked Aman to do embroidery work, who else would have such a great hatred for Changchun Palace, and could make the nurse of the embroidery workshop allow Aman to leave the embroidery workshop late at night and go to the imperial garden to wait?"

She Shuxian smiled.

Concubine Gao is indeed ruthless and poisonous in her actions!

As for the man who molested Aman...

Most of them are the accomplices of Concubine Gao.

"...It's just, who has such a big face, puts on the clothes of the guards, goes to the royal garden to molest the maids, and then retreats unscathed?"

She Shuxian fell into deep thought again.

Although Empress Xiaozhuang Wen had long been instructed by the palace that the harem should not be involved in politics, but when did the harem really cut off the connection with the previous dynasty? !

"Perhaps, I should go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a walk?"

She Shuxian calculated carefully, yesterday Qianlong spent the night at Concubine Gao's place, if Concubine Gao kept her promise to intercede with Qianlong on her behalf, it would be time for the results to come out.

Of course, if Concubine Gao hadn't asked Qianlong for favors for herself, as a woman, she was worried about her old father's comfort, and she went to the Minister of Mental Cultivation to kneel and beg to see the emperor, which is also reasonable.

"Okay, go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation!"

……

……

The Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Qianlong era is not the Hall of Mental Cultivation for tourists in later generations. Although the pillars are still the same pillars, and the railings are still the same railings, there are strict armaments along the road, and officials file in and out.

She Shuxian brought Zhen'er to the outside of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and before explaining her intentions, Li Yu had already greeted her with a whisk, and said, "My servant greets Concubine Xian."

"Eunuch Li Yu, can the emperor see his concubines now?"

She Shuxian pretended to be a poor daughter worried about her father, with a look of trepidation and uneasiness.

Li Yujiang and She Shuxian looked worried, knowing that she came here for Naerbu, so she said: "Yesterday, the imperial concubine asked the emperor for mercy for Lord Naerbu, and now the empress is interceding for Lord Naerbu in the hall. With these two empresses interceding in turn, the emperor will definitely give Lord Narbu another chance!"

When he said this, Li Yu was very puzzled.

The empress has a gentle and gentle personality, and she will indeed intercede for Concubine Xian just because she is pitiful. This Concubine Gao has always been a merciless master, so why is she willing to speak to Concubine Xian?Could it be that although this concubine Xian is not favored, she is superior among concubines?

Of course, these mutterings are just churning in my heart, but I dare not say them out.

She Shuxian learned that not only the imperial concubine kept her promise, but also the empress took the initiative to intercede for her father. Knowing that Narbu's acquittal was a certainty, she couldn't help showing a relaxed expression, and said, "Thank you, thank you!"

Li Yu said with a smile: "Mother, if the Queen comes forward, Lord Naerbu and Lord Changshou will be fine. Do you still need to stay in the Hall of Mental Cultivation and wait for the face saint?"

"Need," She Shuxian said, "Not only do I want to stay in the Hall of Mental Cultivation to face the saint, but I also want to thank the empress in person. Father-in-law Li Yu, please pass it on."

"The servant understands!"

Li Yu walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a smile.

She Shuxian was also taken to a side hall by the maids serving in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, waiting to be summoned.

Because she didn't know when Qianlong and Empress Fucha would finish talking, She Shuxian was sitting in the side hall, but her eyes kept looking out.

Suddenly, she saw Prince Yi.

Thinking of her father's case, She Shuxian called out to stop Prince Yi.

Prince Yi stopped and asked: "Concubine Xian called to stop Weichen, but do you have something to ask?"

"Is there really no room for maneuver in my Ah Ma's case?"

She Shuxian looked at Prince Yi earnestly.

Prince Yi said: "Narbu knew that he violated the law, and his crime is unforgivable. But empress, don't worry, the imperial concubine has already interceded for him, and the queen has also interceded for him. This matter should be exposed soon."

"Can it be uncovered soon? How fast?"

She Shuxian's rhetorical question surprised Prince Yi.

She Shuxian quickly covered it up, saying: "Ama is old and weak, I'm worried that he won't be able to bear it."

"So that's how it is," said Prince Yi with a smile, "Your Majesty, just rest assured, as long as the matter of Naerbu is approved by the Emperor Jinkou, he will be released and go home for reunion within half an hour!"

"That's great."

She Shuxian looked at Prince Yi gratefully.

Prince Yi showed embarrassment, and said: "Your Majesty, you have broken my humble minister."

It was only then that She Shuxian realized that the way she looked at Prince Yi was a bit too direct. In this era of male and female defense, she, who is already the emperor's concubine, cannot look at other men with such eyes.

Even if that man is the emperor's cousin.

"I heard that Ama can go home without incident. I will inevitably be excited, and I will be rude for a while. Prince Yi, don't take offense!"

She Shuxian hastily apologized.

Prince Yi smiled and said: "I understand, I will not talk nonsense."

He cupped his hands and said, "My minister is taking my leave."

"Prince Yi, slow—"

Before the word "go" came out, She Shuxian suddenly heard the sound of fighting in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Why is there the sound of fighting in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation? Could it be that I heard it wrong?"

She Shuxian asked Prince Xiang Yi in puzzlement.

Prince Yi glanced at the source of the voice, and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty heard correctly, there are indeed people fighting outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
