I am Kangxi Bai Yueguang [Qing wear]

Empress Xiaozhao, Niu Hulu family.

Passed out and died suddenly on February 26.

Now the sword pointed at Su Yang who had just returned from Xiyuan, and blocked the Changchun Palace, saying that it was the Empress Dowager's order.

During the trip to Duanyang Xiyuan, the concubine came back first, and the emperor was delayed for two days because of something. Liang Jiugong was the eunuch next to Kangxi, and he didn’t come back this time. Su Yang asked Ningxia to find Liang Jiugong, and he suddenly panicked god.

They should go to Wei Zhu, right? Wei Zhu is the head of the imperial court.

Now that the Empress Dowager is in charge, it is estimated that it is better to find the emperor than anyone else.

The Changchun Palace was in a mess. The two little maids knelt on the ground tremblingly, with haggard and uneasy expressions.

Su Yang tapped the tabletop with his finger, and said: "Don't cry, just clean up the room, if something is missing, report to the owner."

If she committed the crime, there is really evidence to convict her? At this moment, instead of asking the fierce mother to block the door and prevent her from going out, she will be directly escorted to Dali Temple for interrogation and accountability.

Didn't make the matter absolutely,? It shows that there is still a turning point for this matter.

As soon as the master spoke, the two little maids naturally didn't dare to kneel down and cry. They helped each other up, one was holding a broom, and the other started fiddling with tables, chairs and stools.

Ning Dong also bent down to pick up the broken cup on the ground.

The jade-colored cup had already been broken into several pieces, sharp and scratchy.

Su Yang stopped her: "Ningdong,? Be careful, let them sweep it away, don't reach out to pick it up."

Ningdong's hands trembled slightly, she lowered her head to look at a piece of debris in the palm of her hand, and raised her head with a smile: "Master, the slave just needs to be careful."

Ningdong persisted, but Su Yang didn't stop her anymore.

Her eyes stared quietly at Ningdong for a moment, and suddenly remembered what Ningxia told her before.

"Master, Ning Dong... Ning Dong has been in a daze lately, giggling for nothing."

She expressed her opinion cautiously: "Is it... Did you meet the little father-in-law for 'fair food'?"

In the palace of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it was not uncommon for maids to find eunuchs for food.

The reason why she said to meet her father-in-law was because Ning Xia didn't have the opportunity to meet the rooted guards.

Since moving to Changchun Palace, Su Yang seldom let her go out with Zi, but let her handle internal affairs in Changchun Palace, and taught the two little maids by the way.

To deal with internal affairs, it is inevitable that you need to go out to deal with people in other palaces.

For example, the monthly quota and fixed food are all negotiated by Ning Dong.

Let Ning Xia, who is cautious and quick, go, it is naturally good, organized and orderly, Ning Dong is impatient, Su Yang intends to calm her down, and then entrusts her with housework. If there is nothing to do, she is very free .

When people are idle, they can't help but daydream.

If he really went to find his father-in-law for a 'conversation', it would be impossible for Su Yang to kick him out.

As long as you don't commit crimes in front of her or the emperor, everything is easy to talk about.

There is nothing to do in the harem, and she is free to relieve loneliness. Ning Dong is only over 16 years old, and it is very normal to want someone to accompany her and find someone to support her.

Su Yang didn't worry about it at the time, but after Empress Xiaozhao passed away, she spent many days chatting with the Empress Dowager, and she was so busy that she forgot about it.Now that she can't leave the Changchun Palace and is blocked by others, Su Yang's mind is fixed, anyway, it's impossible for her to do anything, it's just a small trial in love, it's inevitable.

Simply ignoring the messy things in front of her, she lowered her head and asked, "Ningdong, my lord hasn't cared about you for a long time recently, is Changchun Palace's housekeeping in order?"

Ning Dong carefully picked up the fragments, lowered her head restrainedly: "If you go back to the master, the internal affairs of the Changchun Palace will be fine, there is only one time..."

"The slave goes to the House of Internal Affairs to get daily necessities in winter. After the master is promoted to nobleman, in the third month..."

She was stuck, the third month happened to be when Su Yang came back from Xiyuan, she was in poor health for a long time, the middle emperor didn't go to the harem for a while, everyone felt that Su Yang was left out in the cold, at that time the imperial dining room held high Low, the daily chicken is not well done.

Su Yang was busy dealing with Concubine Rong, and didn't take much care of the Changchun Palace's internal affairs, and she didn't care too much about food and drink, so she didn't know much about the doorways in the middle.

"In the third month, the servant went to collect red charcoal, but was deducted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. When he came back and weighed it, he found something wrong and went to them to argue, but they said that if the item left the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it would not be closed to them. It's over, the slave talked so much that he was almost scolded."

Thinking about it now, Ningdong still has lingering fears: "These trivial matters in Changchun Palace are handled by slaves, and they dare not take the ears of these dirty masters. Later, a little eunuch from another palace stood up and said that their red Luotan this time , was also deducted, just came to theory theory."

"One person's Hong Luo charcoal share may be a little less by coincidence, but when several people are together, they all say that it is less. This must be calculated again. At that time, the matter was expanded in a small range, which led to the Department of Internal Affairs. Two or three people were dragged out and confiscated the things of those concubines over the years. Fortunately... fortunately, the slave lived up to everyone's expectations and took back the Hong Luo Tan that was owed!"

For example, the red Luo charcoal portion of the nobleman is 20 catties a month.

At that time, she came back and said that it was only more than [-] catties, which was a full catty less.When this matter was investigated, two or three young eunuchs who were in charge of Hong Luo Tan's regulations, one of whom was a court lady, were punished directly.

"Other things... the servant has never met."

Even if we meet, some small things are nothing to worry about.

In order not to let the master feel that she is not good at handling things.

Ning Dong is very satisfied with the current arrangement.

Ning Xia accompanied the master out of the palace all day long, and it was her who greeted her.

She only needs to deal with the daily sundries in the palace and teach the little maids, other than that, it is almost her free time.

Su Yang nodded, and asked with a smile in the mess without changing his face, "Ningdong, have you...have a sweetheart recently?"

The army was in front, oh no, several nuns surrounded the Changchun Palace, and did not let the palace people inside come out, they must have thought that the people in this palace at this time encountered such distress, and their hearts were full of surprise and anxiety.

I'm afraid I can't eat it even if I bring a meal.

In the end, no one thought about it. In such a situation, the master of the palace was still worrying about the emotional dynamics of the palace maid with a smile on his face.

Ning Dong forced herself to be calm, "I don't have any sweethearts for a slave. Don't talk nonsense, master!"

Su Yang smiled: "Really?"

If you like someone, whether you have a sweetheart or not, you can see the difference from the past from the words and deeds.

For example, a person who doesn't care much about his appearance, who is external, suddenly starts to love beauty and likes to dress up, even though the court lady's clothing may be just one or two, trying to attract the attention of his sweetheart, or separate from other court ladies.

Even if someone else came to ask, Su Yang couldn't tell the truth, saying that he was in love with so-and-so, so he had to hold back or not tell.

For example, in this era, if it is discovered that the court lady and the eunuch are eating each other, it is not a good idea.

Ning Dong wanted to hide it, but Su Yang could only insinuate who the other party was, or ask someone else.

But sweethearts are one thing...

Anything else, is another story.

Su Yang watched her quietly: "Ningdong, do you have anything else to say to me?"

Ningdong's eyes trembled slightly, she thought for a moment that Su Yang had seen something, but with the keenness of the master, not to mention that she used to be the Su female official of Chengqian Palace, so she was more than enough to handle other trivial matters.

After being promoted to concubine, I didn't have the mind to take care of these things.

What she did, the master would never think of himself.

Ningdong replied steadily: "Master, there is no more. The slave slave should tell the master, the master knows."

Su Yang casually took a surviving cup beside him: "In this case, there is nothing to say."

"Ningdong, let others clean up the ground. The owner is thirsty, so go get a cup of tea."

"Yes!"

After Ning Dong opened it, Ning Xia turned sideways, picked up a chair beside her and put it aside.

"Master... Is Ningdong hiding something from us?"

"You see it too?"

Su Yang smiled and sighed lightly: "Whether to hide it or not, we will see in two days."

Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager knelt on the futon, her eyes closed quietly, and the Buddhist beads in her left hand were constantly twirling.

Su Ma stood on her right hand and said: "Mr. Su Gui has already returned to the palace. Two quarters of an hour before returning to the palace, a...a doll was found inside."

"What doll?"

Aunt Su Ma's tone paused slightly, and her voice was a little indescribably low.

"The doll with the horoscope of Empress Xiaozhao's birthday written on it."

The Empress Dowager's hand, which was violently turning the beads, stopped, and with a "click", the beads broke from between her fingers and splashed everywhere.

"Did you see clearly?"

She opened her eyes instantly and said lightly.

"The servant came back from the Chengqian Palace and saw a group of people rushing in. A nun was holding a doll in a palace costume. Looking at the style, it was worn by Empress Xiaozhao during her lifetime."

Surrounding the Changchun Palace was an order from the Empress Dowager.

Searching the palace is dominated by Concubine Tong of Chengqian Palace.

When she came yesterday, she was in a hurry and said: "Old ancestor, old ancestor, this concubine got a piece of news, the news is too terrible, I dare not tell the emperor, and the emperor is still in Xiyuan, so I can't come back in time , so I thought about it and came here to discuss with my ancestors."

"Yesterday morning, my concubine got the news that Empress Xiaozhao died of a strange cause. She passed away very quickly and the imperial physicians hadn't arrived at that time. It would be useless if they did."

"This is a man-made disaster!"

Concubine Tong with a solemn face, also knelt down to the Empress Dowager who was kneeling on the futon: "I got the news that Su Guiren used to hide witchcraft dolls, and used needles to prick acupuncture points from time to time, muttering something, saying that he was too far away I couldn't hear what was said clearly, but I could see Empress Xiaozhao's name from that doll."

Empress Xiaozhao, Niu Hulu family.

In this harem, for the time being, there is only the queen with this surname.

Empress Xiaozhao passed away suddenly at a young age. Although she had a physical illness, if it was found out, it would be human...

"She said that the emperor dotes on Su Guiren very much, and he dared not and didn't have the courage to take the opportunity to report."

"This time Su Guiren followed the emperor to go to Xiyuan, so he got the opportunity to come to Chengqian Palace to inform my concubine. In the past, Su Guiren was the person who inherited Qiangong. Since she came to inform my concubine, she must be thinking, concubine. Now that I am in charge of the Sixth Palace, I dare not cover up and conceal this matter, and because of the huge involvement in this matter, I am terrified, at a loss and dare not make any claims, so I came here to ask my ancestors for advice."

"Old Ancestor, look, how to deal with this?!"

"Search Palace."

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and quickly twirled the new beads with a calm expression.

"Tomorrow when the concubine returns to the palace, Mrs. Su Gui will also come back. If she comes back, first surround the Changchun Palace and prevent anyone from entering or leaving."

"go."
