When the two men returned to the Clothes Bureau, the palace officials were busy cleaning the piles of clothes and sheets.
And Aunt Ye walked around among the palace ladies. If she found someone being lazy, she would have to scold them.
At the moment, no one noticed the arrival of the two Huangmen servants.
It wasn't until Aunt Ye turned around to patrol that she discovered that the two yellow door servants were already standing outside the gate of the Huanyi Bureau.
For a moment, she felt very panicked.
Ever since she dreamed about coriander last time, she has been feeling uneasy.
Now that my mood has just improved, I don't expect these people to come to me again.
But although she didn't want to deal with these people anymore, she thought that their master couldn't afford to offend him, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to them.
What she didn't know was that when she walked towards the two Huangmen chamberlains, two lines of sight also glanced in her direction.
Aunt Ye quickly came to the two of them. She only motioned for the two of them to follow her to the deserted yard not far from the Huanyi Bureau.
After making sure that no one noticed the three of them here, Aunt Ye lowered her voice and asked the other two, "What are you doing here?"
"Of course I'm here to see you, Aunt Ye." One of them said with a playful smile.
"What are you looking for me for? Hasn't that matter been settled? Didn't you also say before that in order to avoid causing trouble, it's best for us not to have any contact with each other?" Aunt Ye said in a low voice. .
When the two people heard this, they just said nonchalantly, "That's what I said, but it's not up to us to decide whether to have contact with each other. In fact, we only came here after receiving orders from above. The above said that we should come over for inspection." Check to see if all the coriander’s relics have been cleaned up. If there are any unclean things, it’s best to hand them in as well.”
After hearing this, Aunt Ye's face turned pale again. She just smiled dryly and said, "Didn't they burn them all last time? What else can be left here?"
After listening to Aunt Ye's words, the two people only said, "Who knows? Since the superiors asked us to come over and check, of course we will just come over and check."
After hearing what the two of them said, Aunt Ye could only reluctantly say, "Then come with me."
With Aunt Ye's words, the two followed.
Then Aunt Ye took the two of them back to the yard.
This time their arrival only attracted the attention of most of the maids who were doing laundry.
There were not many young men in this courtyard, and the arrival of the two of them undoubtedly attracted the attention of most of the palace ladies.
And the two guards still walked to the room where they usually rested.
This naturally aroused everyone's curiosity.
Aunt Ye obviously didn't want to attract their attention, and when she saw them, they all looked this way.
She couldn't help scolding her harshly: "What are you looking at? Don't you have to work anymore?"
I have to say that Aunt Ye's scolding scared most people.
They stopped looking here, and Aunt Ye led the people to the direction where Coriander used to live.
Naturally, the two Huangmen guards did not find anything suspicious here this time.
The two people who returned in vain obviously did not give up after searching for nothing.
After all, they really didn't believe that the masters had eaten too much and asked them to come here without success.
If nothing can be found, I'm afraid they won't be able to get the silver reward in vain.
Thinking of this, one of them unconsciously cast his eyes on Aunt Ye.
Aunt Ye was obviously a little disturbed because of past events, and her appearance in the eyes of the two of them was even more related to a guilty conscience.
One of them just winked at the other.
Then the person standing behind Aunt Ye immediately closed the door.
After feeling the door close, Aunt Ye naturally felt a little panicked. She subconsciously looked behind her, and then only whispered to one of them, "What do you want to do?"
"Aunt Ye, what can we do? You should
You should know that since the above can call us here, it is naturally impossible to run away empty-handed. There must be something higher up that we don’t know about. "
"We naturally hope that Aunt Ye can try her best to cooperate with us. Of course, it doesn't matter if you refuse to cooperate. If the above investigation is investigated, if you tell us what you are hiding, we won't be able to control so much. .”
Hearing this, Aunt Ye's face turned whiter and whiter.
As expected, she is not a person who can withstand intimidation.
With trembling hands, she took out a small thing wrapped in silk cloth from her arms.
"This, I only took this. This was given to me by the coriander when he didn't do anything wrong. I thought this thing should be fine, so I didn't tell the people above. I also hope that you two won't say this in front of the people above. I took the stuff. It's all my fault."
Seeing her confessing her crime so quickly, the two men couldn't help but admire their keen observation skills.
And when they saw Aunt Ye shaking like this, they couldn't help but be curious to see what was hidden there.
I didn't want to open it, but there was nothing more than a crudely made gold hairpin inside.
No matter how you look at this thing, it seems that there is obviously no need to go to war over it.
So they couldn't help but ask again, "It's okay if I don't say you took it, but is this really the only thing you have in your hand? Did you really hide nothing else?"
Aunt Ye then immediately swore, "This is the only thing. It's not unclear to you two. Not long after you dealt with the coriander, the two father-in-laws from Ye Ting came directly to clean up the coriander's relics. I don't have enough time to go there." Looking for her stuff.”
"Besides, I'm not someone who takes other people's things casually. If she hadn't given it to me, I wouldn't have taken it at all. If I lied, God will kill me!"
Seeing that Aunt Ye was explaining and swearing, the two of them just believed Aunt Ye's words and said no more. Although they didn't know what the golden hairpin was for, they tried their best to find it. Got something.
As for whether this thing was what the people above were looking for, they didn't know. After all, the people above didn't tell them what they were looking for.
After the two brothers got the gold hairpin, they stopped staying. After they parted ways with Aunt Ye, they headed towards the people above them.
During this period, the two of them obviously didn't notice a figure that was just following them.
And the person following the two of them is naturally Cuiqiao.
Cuiqiao was ordered to follow the two men closely when they went to their real boss.
Cuiqiao has always been very good at this kind of thing. She even heard about how the two of them threatened Aunt Ye in the house just now.
So when she realized that these two people had really defrauded Coriander's relic, her first thought was that she had to get it regardless of whether there was any problem with the relic.
Therefore, when the two people passed by a palace path, she just deliberately waited at the corner. Seeing the two people walking towards this direction in a hurry, she went straight and hit the person with the golden hairpin. passed.
After knocking the opponent down, Cui Qiao immediately said in shock, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Liu Cheng, who was hit, obviously still hadn't recovered. He just cursed loudly, "Don't you have eyes when you walk?"
However, after discovering that the other party was a little palace maid, and that the little palace lady only apologized to him, he couldn't help but continue to scold the other party.
Therefore, he only had a stinky face and said softly, "Don't hit anyone again next time."
The little palace maid just nodded in agreement.
Li Ming on the side said, "Okay, what are we arguing with this little girl about? Business is important, let's go quickly."
Liu Cheng nodded when he heard this.
Then when Liu Cheng got up, the two of them went to the corner.
Cui Qiao just now raised her hand, revealing a small paper bag. Unexpectedly, she didn't know when she had secretly obtained the golden hairpin they had just deceived from Aunt Ye. She stuffed the golden hairpin into her sleeve pocket, then continued to hide her figure, following from a distance
Li and Liu.
Li Ming and Liu Cheng didn't know how long they walked around the palace. Then they only stopped in front of a palace with two red vermilion doors and two marble lions in front of them.
After talking to the two guards at the door, they were let in.
Although Cuiqiao also wanted to follow in, she soon discovered that the guards in this palace were obviously stricter than those in other places.
And there are only a few secret guards hidden in those hidden corners.
Cuiqiao knew that it was impossible for her to follow him in, so she stopped not far away.
But before leaving, she still took a look at the name of the palace.
After Cuiqiao left, the two people also walked into the inner courtyard of the palace.
When an eunuch in the inner courtyard saw them stepping in, he was a little surprised and said, "Which palace are you from? How did you get here?"
When the two people saw each other asking about their origins, they immediately explained their purpose of coming, "We are here to see Eunuch Feng."
"Eunuch Feng? He is not here now. If you have anything to do, just tell us directly, and we will tell him on your behalf." One of the chamberlains said this directly.
Naturally, it was impossible for those two people to directly tell the unknown waiter about this scandalous matter.
Therefore, the two of them just waved and said, "Since the father-in-law has not come back, let's wait here for him to come back."
However, the eunuch in charge said arrogantly, "If you want to wait, please do it yourself, but this is not a place where you can come. If you want to wait, go out and wait!"
After saying this, the eunuch and eunuch chased these two people away.
