After Chen Debao made up a random excuse to prevaricate, he heard the nobleman say slowly: "Stealing property from the palace? That is indeed a felony."

Hearing this, the corners of Chen Debao's mouth turned up. Sure enough, trustworthy people can be favored, and he is a smart person who knows the current affairs.

He was about to send a letter to the nobleman, but when he heard the voice of the nobleman in front of him change, his original sweet voice became chilly, and he even sneered twice: "Because it is a felony, how can you let you talk nonsense. Today I I also brought the palace lady with me, but I can go into the nearest house and check if the palace lady has any belongings." It happened to ask Qiushuang to help Yinqiao tidy up his clothes.

Chen Debao was stunned.

Jiang Heng didn't give him time to think and continued to ask: "There is one thing, I have to ask first, what is the property in the palace that Guanshi Chen mentioned? What kind of property can a court lady in Jingqi Pavilion steal? Let steward Chen travel thousands of miles from the main room of the respect room to the most remote Jingqi Pavilion to pull people?"

Jiang Heng stared at his face, and his tone could not hide his disgust: "If it is fabricated out of thin air, and the crime of slandering someone and stealing, does Eunuch Chen know what will happen to him?"

Chen Debao was dumbfounded, this, this... how come this is still on the line!

Jiang Heng looked at the old eunuch's cloudy eyes, his malicious expression, and the complacency that he took it for granted that no one would offend him for a little maid, and let him do evil, it was disgusting.

She has never been so bored with a person since entering the palace.

Jiang Heng turned directly to the eunuchs of the Yonghe Palace he brought, and asked them to guard and escort Chen Debao for a while, and then went to the respect room: "Take this to the Punishment Department first, and then tell Zhang Yuzhu, Zhang Guanshi, that his subordinates in the respect room have internal affairs. The prison committed evil, wronged the court lady for stealing without reason, and extorted property, and I have already sent him to the Punishment Department for him."

Chen Debao was really dumbfounded, he was also a respectable eunuch in the palace, and the trustworthy nobleman was not even the chief, so he was directly sent to the Department of Punishment.He raised his eyes and said, "My lord, you are wronged..."

Qiu Shuang stopped immediately: "It is said that the respect room is in charge of all the eunuchs in the palace, and it is a place where rules are taught. Who knows that you, the steward of the respect room, are the first to have no rules! The nobleman is giving orders, why are you so talkative? If there is anything to distinguish, go to the Punishment Department and explain it clearly. Okay, the rules and punishments in the palace have their own consequences, and there is no reason for the masters to tell you!"

Jiang Heng also ignored Chen Debao, and continued to say to Qiu Shuang: "After returning to the palace, ask Qiu Xue to mention today's matter to Su Gonggong."

Nowadays, the maids and eunuchs of the various palaces cannot represent their masters to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to see the Emperor, but they are also members of the palace, so they can still meet Su Peisheng.

If you have something to say, you can tell Su Peisheng and let him report it to the emperor as appropriate.

Of course, not everyone has the face to let Su Peisheng decide what to do.

Of course, Chen Debao also understood, so the resentment and the courage to want to reason just now withered after hearing the word Su Gonggong.If nobleman Ruoxin was only outraged for a moment, and he was sent to the Department of Punishment, he could still do a thing or two.It is believable that the nobleman is so unafraid that he is going to bring this matter to the imperial court?

After the eyes and ears of the emperor, who would dare to take the risk to save him?

His connections, flattery, and backing in the palace for many years are enough for him to run rampant in normal times, but he is paperless in front of the word 'emperor'.

Only then did Chen Debao's face show clear fear. When he saw Jiang Heng just now, he just bent down to salute. Now he knelt down in a 'thump': "Your nobleman! The slave is humble, and I offended the nobleman for a while. I also beg the nobleman to raise your hand , Let this slave go, in the future, I will be like a bull and a horse to repay the nobleman, and your Yonghe Palace is the slave's top priority!"

Jiang Heng saw that he was crying and felt that he was too dirty, so he quickly took two steps back, and then smiled coldly: "Do you know what my top priority is?"

Chen Debao raised his head blankly: Should he continue to be favored?Or position?Is it Nian Guifei?

At this moment, Chen Debao really raised the question of whether to betray the noble concubine in exchange for the noble hand of the trustworthy nobleman.But thinking about it, if he entered the Punishment Department and offended the imperial concubine, he would really have no way out.

So he just kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Don't worry about the important matters of the nobleman, just order the slaves!"

Jiang Heng waved his hand, and let the eunuch of the Yonghe Palace step forward to press down on him: "Go to the Punishment Department to think about it."

She looked at Chen Debao who didn't dare to struggle anymore after she mentioned that she wanted to report to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and thought to herself: Holy Grace is really easy to use, and it can be regarded as an invisible salary.

Chen Debao couldn't believe it until he was pushed away: What's going on, how could someone offend the deputy in charge eunuch for the sake of the humblest court lady.

One must know that for him to be able to stay in the palace until now, there must be some connections behind him.

Why doesn't Mr. Xin refuse to take care of you and me, and let each other pass each other to save face?

How could Mr. Xin offend the eunuch in charge of the respect room for a lowly court lady like me?

Chen Debao, who was suppressed by the Yonghe Palace eunuch, didn't understand, and the rescued lead bridge didn't understand either.

Until Jiang Heng walked over, Yinqiao's mind was still muddled.

Jiang Heng looked at the approach bridge, feeling very sad.

Today is only the second day that the lead bridge was transferred from Jingyang Palace, she was afraid that the lead bridge would be entangled by the old eunuch, so she counted the time as soon as possible, but it was still a little late.

I saw that Yinqiao's hair was a little disheveled, the blue cloth clothes on her body were already worn out, a piece of her left sleeve was torn, and her right hand was the worst.Only when Jiang Heng got closer did he realize that she was holding a piece of broken porcelain in her right hand, which had cut her palm and was still bleeding.

It is only mentioned in the book that she was persecuted a few times, but Chen Debao always tried.

Only now did Jiang Heng know how this threat was attempted. Every time Yinqiao resisted, he had a will to die.

Qiushuang saw that the master was watching the maid's wound dripping blood, and wanted to untie the handkerchief herself, so she quickly took out her own handkerchief and wrapped it around Yinqiao. She introduced: "Our master is the nobleman of the Yonghe Palace."

When approaching the bridge to salute, his eyes were still red, and his expression was sick and haggard after being excited.

Her eyebrows and eyes are indeed a bit like a little fox, and there is a charming curvature at the corners of her eyes.But now, it looked like a poor fox that was drenched in heavy rain and messed up.

Jiang Heng looked at the approach bridge, it was a very poor little fox.But Yinqiao looked up and saw Jiang Heng, but thought he saw a god walking down the clouds.

There was a lot of blood on Yinqiao's hands, and the blood was still oozing when a handkerchief was tied on. Jiang Heng tied his own handkerchief on her again, and said, "I'll get someone to bring you the medicine in a while. Maybe today I'm going to give you medicine." Someone came to you to ask about your talents, but it is not good to ask you to go to Yonghe Palace to get medicine."

The deputy manager of the respect room is not an ordinary eunuch, and the Punishment Department will definitely collect evidence.

Only then did Yinqiao slow down, knelt down to thank him, and after being helped up by Jiang Heng, he first told Mr. Xingui everything that happened to him.

"The nobleman's great kindness is engraved in my heart by this servant!"

If it weren't for the endorsement of her, a noble person, and the trustworthy nobleman publicly stated that he was not afraid of bringing this matter to the imperial court, even if the approach bridge was hit and killed at the gate of the Punishment Department, it would probably be useless.

Jiang Heng saw that she was still in a daze, and he didn't know how much he had heard about what happened just now, so he emphasized to her again: "The charge I made people force him to go to the Punishment Department is 'wronging the court lady for stealing without reason, This is extortion of property'. Chen Debao will not dare to take other crimes on himself, don't worry, what happened today will not be spread outside."

Even in modern times, when a woman is violated, no matter whether it is attempted or not, many people will choose to swallow their anger, lest they have to suffer another humiliation of reputation, being pointed at by others and even dying in society.What's more, in this era, if a woman is bullied, many people will throw themselves into the river to show their innocence.

It's not that Jiang Heng can't understand, or anyone can't understand the social status quo that can be changed.

She can't "retrace the facts and act chivalrously" for herself, but instead kill Yinqiao's life.

Yinqiao is a smart girl, she soon understood what Jiang Heng meant to protect her.But a bit of struggle flashed across her face, and she finally gritted her teeth and said, "My lord, I'm not afraid! As a manager, if he is only accused of extorting property, he might just take away the power of the deputy manager, and it's still not painful! I would rather take the lead Report him for coercing the court lady to eat with him, and let him be rewarded with evil!"

Jiang Heng looked at the approach bridge: After all, it is still the approach bridge of 'childhood'.

At this moment, she is full of pain and humiliation, and her thoughts are extremely strong. She would rather hurt one thousand enemies and one thousand eighties.

The lead bridge in the book, relies on the heroine's gold to temporarily escape Chen Debao's clutches.At that time, Chen Debao had nothing to lose, he was still working as the deputy manager of the respect room, and he was even a little eager to move her.Leading the bridge has been patient until she is strong enough, and then does not hurt herself, tossing Chen Debao to survive or die.

"There's no need to sacrifice myself for such a filthy person." Jiang Heng met Yinqiao whose eyes were red with hatred at this time, and said softly: "It is a serious crime for a eunuch to force a court lady to eat, but besides that, Chen Debao also committed a crime. other mortal sins."

"You just mentioned that he gave your parents 100 taels of silver?"

Mentioning this matter, Yinqiao still felt a sharp pain in her heart, which seemed to split her whole body apart.

But she quickly realized: "Your honor means that Chen Debao committed the crime of collusion."

Jiang Heng nodded: "Yes, he took advantage of the fact that the eunuchs were able to go out to the palace to do business, and bought the parents of other palace people, and threatened them with money. In the future, these palace people who are threatened by him may do something against the palace. It is not good for the master. This has always been a taboo in the inner palace."

Yinqiao's eyes gradually lit up: "Your servant understands!"

She is just a little maid of no rank, and Chen Debao coerced her into confrontation, and he still tried to coerce her. The crime is really not connected with the inside and outside!In this way, she doesn't need to waste her own reputation, but she can also make him fade away!

"By the way, what's your name?" Jiang Heng walked to the door before turning around and asking her, unlike ordinary palace people who would report their name first when responding, Cai Yinqiao kept avoiding his own name just now.Jiang Heng thought, she probably didn't want to call Yindi anymore.

"The servant leads... the bridge."

She used to be called Yindi.

After learning that she was sold to the old eunuch by her parents, she once wanted to die in the past.Although the maid's suicide would hurt her family, she thought, if she really hurt her family, it would kill two birds with one stone, wouldn't it?

She had already walked to the bridge of Yudai Pond, but she didn't jump.

The sky is going to be a dead end, so she has to grit her teeth and try this dead end.She jumped down, but Chen Debao was alive and well, she didn't want to just jump down like this.

After getting off the bridge, she didn't want to call Yindi anymore.

Today, when the nobleman asked her name, she magically gave her a new name—her name is Yinqiao, the bridge that almost jumped off the bridge.

From then on, she was the lead bridge.

After Qiushuang returned to the palace, she felt a little scared. The person who was sent to the Punishment Department by the master just now was the deputy manager of the respect room. Chen Debao has served in the palace since the first emperor. After decades, there must be someone behind him.If it is fished out...

Seeing that the master started unpacking the new book with great interest, Qiu Shuang pulled Qiu Xue out and repeated what she had just scolded: "You touch my hand, it's still cold now!"

Just now Zhang Fei’s aura of drinking off Dangyang Bridge disappeared, at this time Qiu Shuang said in a small voice: "The master is kind, but after all, he is the deputy steward of the respect room. I am always scared in my heart. Qiu Xue Sister, I did not say anything wrong."

Qiu Xue, who had already heard what happened from Jiang Heng, patted Qiu Shuang on the shoulder as encouragement: "You have done a good job. The words you said to Chen Debao were also very clear. There is no one who flinches and throws away our Yonghe Palace. Don't worry, The master is not the kind of impulsive person, she must have her own plan if she stretched out her hand."

Qiu Shuang also laughed when she heard the words: "Hey, I didn't expect that one day I would be able to point at the deputy manager of the respect room to reprimand me!"

Qiuxue looked at the figure of the nobleman concentrating on reading and practicing calligraphy through the exposed tile window, and said with a reassuring smile: "Wait, the respect room needs to give us an explanation first! Then Chen Debao has lived in the palace for many years, In the end, he was still overwhelmed by Manager Zhang, and could only be the deputy manager of the respect room, which is also useless."

Then he told Qiushuang: "You serve the master well at home, I will go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to find Eunuch Su and explain this matter clearly."

Before Qiu Xue came back from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Zhang Yuzhu arrived in person.

There was a sincere apology on his round and white face.And it's outrageous to have a good attitude, repeatedly expressing that he has no way to restrain his subordinates, offended the nobleman, and made the nobleman laugh.He also promised that he would never intercede for Chen Debao, and that he would be investigated in the Punishment Division and punished as he should.

Jiang Heng was not surprised by Zhang Yuzhu's attitude.

These two people obviously don't get along: a young manager in his early thirties, and an older deputy manager in his 50s, the relationship is very complicated when you think about it.

Zhang Yuzhu guessed that Chen Debao was also an eyesore.

Jiang Heng believed that he would never pull Chen Debao because of his colleagues in the respect room, and probably would take the opportunity to kick him a few times.

But even so, she still seriously expressed her dissatisfaction and anger towards Zhang Yuzhu: "Director Zhang doesn't know, but for some money, this eunuch Chen is going to kill people! Very well-behaved, if he hadn't declared his family name, I wouldn't believe that he came from the respect room."

Zhang Yuzhu had a bitter face: "I can't do anything about this slave, this Chen Debao has always been in the palace for a long time, so he doesn't obey the slave's control."

Then he pointed to the west, intending to indicate that Chen Debao was behind the noble concubine Nian.

After pointing, I found that something was wrong: the Yonghe Palace is at the easternmost point, and the range of pointing to the west is too large.And to the west of the Yonghe Palace is the Queen's Empress Chengqian Palace first.Don't give any wrong hints to the nobleman.

Zhang Yuzhu was trying to understand a little more, so he heard the nobleman say: "Needless to say, I know a little bit." Zhang Yuzhu was surprised and wondered: Master Xin is so well informed, is there someone who hugged his thigh earlier and better than me? ah.No, I have to work hard.

I was thinking hard, so I listened to the nobleman and said: "I have one more thing to ask Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Yuzhu immediately bowed down: "Just give orders, my lord!"

"Chen Debao's character, I want Mr. Zhang to be clear. It's one thing to convict him, but Mr. Zhang, don't implicate innocent people just to convict him. It has tarnished the girl's good reputation. What does Manager Zhang think?"

Zhang Yuzhu's heart trembled, and then he repeatedly assured: "The servant knows."

Chen Debao has had a grudge against him for a long time. He knows Chen Debao's virtues very well, and he knows that Chen Debao always stares at the beautiful court ladies with squinting eyes.That's why when the news reached the respect room, Zhang Yuzhu didn't believe that Chen Debao was going to blackmail the money to connect the inside and outside, he must be going to coerce the maid!

Zhang Yuzhu originally wanted to find out this crime and add a big crime to Chen Debao, but now he listened to the nobleman's words, so he had no choice but to stop this idea.

If Chen Debao's matter is discussed seriously, he will also be responsible for the leadership. At this moment, you can't trust the nobleman. She told the emperor that she would also be in bad luck.

Seeing Zhang Yuzhu leaving with thousands of guarantees, Jiang Heng thought: This matter is now settled nine points.

The last point depends on God's will: if the emperor is not busy recently and she can see him, then Chen Debao will change from being guilty to being extraordinarily guilty.

Jiang Hengjing waited for the result.

Since Zhang Yuzhu has a good relationship with Su Peisheng, he had such an opportunity, of course, he immediately asked his beloved "brother". The older brother asked Su Peisheng for help: "It's also the word "damn" written in his life. The thing is immoral, and it happened to be bumped into by the nobleman. I saw that the nobleman was very angry, and I thought it was disgusting. My brother spoke to the emperor for me. If the emperor wants to ask the nobleman, he will definitely be able to Knock this thing to death, nail Chen Debao to death!"

Su Peisheng was entrusted by Yonghe Palace and Zhang Yuzhu, so he found an opportunity to raise this matter in front of the emperor.

The emperor has always disliked eunuchs being meddlesome, not to mention collusion.As soon as he heard it, he frowned and asked the Department of Punishment for a detailed investigation.With the word "detailed investigation" from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Chen Debao was almost ashamed.

It just so happened that these days, the emperor had nothing important to do other than preparing to go out of Beijing to the Hunting Garden.I heard that Mr. Xingui directly sent Chen Debao to the Punishment Department this time, so he overturned the sign the next day.

When Jiang Heng arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor thought of this incident and asked curiously: In his opinion, it is unreasonable for the soft-tempered girl of the nobleman to have a good temper. Zhou promised to cut off her beard before, but she didn't do anything. He had to reward a pomegranate tree.Why did he suddenly become annoyed this time, and immediately escorted him to the Punishment Department.

Jiang Heng didn't hide anything from the emperor, but told the truth.

She talked about the porcelain in Yinqiao's hand, and the eunuch's words and demeanor—it was the first time the emperor saw her showing such a disgusted expression.

The emperor seldom saw Jiang Heng frowning. In his impression, the nobleman always seemed to have a smile on his face. When there was no smile on his lips, his eyes also had a natural smile, as comfortable as the breeze and the moon.

It is rare to see her frowning tightly, her face seems to be pale with disgust, and her heart becomes unhappy, and she turns to Su Peisheng and says: "Department of Destiny and Punishment will deal with it more severely! The respectful room is to teach the little eunuchs to behave Yes, it was my own family who had trouble first. Thinking about it, memorizing the palace rules a thousand times is better than watching the bloody case once, so that they can remember it long. This guy knows how to be afraid if he has to see people die. "

The emperor ordered that the crime be punished more severely, and the Punishment Department immediately complied.

Chen Debao's own crimes are clearly here, and he was quickly regarded as a typical example. He was fined with money, beaten and sentenced to Yili as a slave. The eunuchs were all punished together.

The imperial concubine was extremely annoyed when she got the news.I called the palace maid Gan Tang to ask: "A few days ago, Chen Debao was asked to investigate the details of the Yonghe Palace. The matter has not been completed yet, but he committed such a serious crime and was sent to Yili. Are you How do you do it!"

Let's say that the imperial concubine is a very proud person, looking at the concubines, they are all "little trash here", let alone the eunuchs and maids.

Chen Debao was able to curry favor with the imperial concubine, who was in full swing and was the only favorite last year. Of course, it was not because the imperial concubine treated an old eunuch like him differently, but because he was able to curry favor with the eunuch Bai Ling and the court lady Gantang who were beside the imperial concubine.

After the noble concubine became hostile to the nobleman Xin, it was also when Gan Tang offered advice, thinking that it was time to use Chen Debao.

As a result, nothing was found, and Chen Debao won the honor of a one-way trip to Yili. Even before he set off, he still had to carry the shackles and the scars of punishment on his body, and let the eunuchs in the palace visit him once or twice, as a wake-up call.

Of course the concubine was angry.

In order to avoid the wrath of his master, Gan Tang of course had to try his best to clear himself up first: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This servant has known Eunuch Chen for a long time, and he often comes to kowtow to your Majesty. This servant sees that he is not a greedy person. It's very strange, no one has been to this Jingqi Pavilion for hundreds of years, how can you believe that the nobleman went there on that day, and caught Eunuch Chen's handle."

"The servant thinks that the nobleman knew that Eunuch Chen was facing the empress, so he used a trick to frame Eunuch Chen. The servant had seen the maid of Jingqi Pavilion before, and she was very indecent. At that time, all the palaces were not Willing to want her, I think it's possible for her to seduce Eunuch Chen in order to get ahead, or let Mrs. Xin buy her and deliberately frame her up."

Rather than admitting that she had lost her sight, the imperial concubine was of course more willing to blame others, and snorted coldly: "She has the skills, and she lost a deputy manager of the respect room without humming."

Then he asked Gan Tang, "Didn't the Punishment Department find out what I ordered Chen Debao to do?"
