Chapter 382 Check the Xiao Mansion
The two little eunuchs were completely dumbfounded.
They couldn't imagine why Rupin, who was supposed to be walking at this time, came back suddenly.
Since when did you come back?Did you hear the two of them talk?
The faces of the two little eunuchs were so pale that they dropped the food box in their hands to the ground in fright, and they fell to their knees with a plop, "Ru, my lady, please forgive me, my lady, please spare my life."
They slapped themselves hard, wishing they could bite off their tongues right now, regretting why they talked too much just now.
Rubi didn't look at them, she looked ahead and said coldly, "I ask you, where did you hear what you said just now?"
The two eunuchs looked at each other, seeing fear in each other's faces.
One of them shook his body and replied.
"For example, my concubine, please forgive me, slave, the servants don't know. The slave heard it from others. It was spread in the palace, and I don't know where it came from. For example, my concubine, it's the slaves who talk too much. Please don't remember the villain's mistakes, please spare the slaves' lives."
Yulan waited on the side, watching Rupin standing quietly in place, from just now until now, she hasn't said a word.
Yulan deliberated and reprimanded coldly: "Go away! Shut up your mouths, and next time your mother sees you chewing your tongue carelessly, she will pull out your tongues!"
As soon as the two little eunuchs heard that they could go away, they hurriedly picked up the food box on the ground as if they were being pardoned, and ran outside.
Rupin's complexion was extremely pale when she heard the sound of footsteps gradually going away. She didn't expect the matter to develop to this point.
The rumors and rumors of the past few days are nothing to worry about, but if Ye Mohan takes the rumors now seriously, it will kill Xiao Nanchen.
Xiaoxia hurriedly supported Rupin to walk in, let her sit on the chair, and then hurriedly poured her a cup of tea.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, His Majesty may not believe what these people say."
Rupin didn't think optimistically, it's the same thing if His Majesty believes it or not, but if there are too many people saying this, His Majesty will be forced to believe it.
Even if His Majesty doesn't like him, no man can allow a woman in his backyard to have an affair with another man.
Rupin took a sip of tea and calmed down, she must let Brother Chen live well!
But now who can she ask for help?
Concubine Xiao?Queen Mother?
Rupin sat down firmly and forced herself to calm down.
At this moment, Xiao Yueyao was slowly waking up from the bed, habitually looking to the other side of the bed, Lu Chun listened to the movement inside, and came in to serve her, "Your Majesty, are you awake?"
Xiao Yueyao first put on an unlined garment for herself to cover the marks on her body, and then stood up from the bed, lest Lu Chun, a woman who has not left the cabinet, would be too shy to look around after a while.
Xiao Yueyao walked over lazily, and asked casually, "Your Majesty is gone?"
Lu Chun nodded: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is going to the morning court today, and left early in the morning, slave, slave maid will help you wash and change your clothes."
Xiao Yueyao nodded, and obediently sat down on the chair, Luchun carried the copper basin over, who knows, while Luchun was walking, she accidentally threw the copper basin out of her hand, fell to the ground, and the water spilled all over the floor.
Luchun exclaimed, and hurried over to clean up.
Xiao Yueyao was also taken aback by the sound, watching Luchun lying on the ground wiping the water stains on the ground, she realized that there was something wrong with Luchun today.
The look of being absent-minded.
Xiao Yueyao took the man's hand and pulled him up, "Don't do it, you sit down and rest, it's my negligence, there are at least five or six people serving in the other concubines' palaces, our palace is just you and Yuanyuan, it will indeed be harder, change the Japanese palace and let the Ministry of Internal Affairs send some maids over."
Lu Chun sat on the chair, shaking her head with red eyes, "Your Majesty, it's not because of this, Your Majesty..."
Lu Chun faltered and hawed, and finally spoke out.
"Ma'am, something happened to the young master!"
Xiao Yueyao's heart sank, she couldn't figure out that not long ago the Empress Dowager intended to give Xiao Nanchen a marriage, why did something happen now?
Is left and right just a matter of giving a marriage?
Xiao Yueyao comforted her: "It's because of the elder brother's gift of marriage. I don't think you should worry too much about it. There are times in your fate, and there is always a fate. Don't force it. Maybe the elder brother has no fate with them."
Lu Chun heard the words, couldn't hold back the tears, and rolled down one by one.
"No, empress, but...the news about the eldest young master and empress Rubin was reported."
Xiao Yueyao's complexion also sank, and she asked uncertainly: "What do you mean?"
Lu Chun continued: "There have been rumors inside and outside the palace for the past two days that the young master and the concubine had an old relationship, and that the young master refused the marriage offer from the queen mother, yes, it was because of the concubine, the servant girl, and the servant girl who heard about it last night, but because your majesty is here, I really dare not tell the empress..."
Xiao Yueyao's head froze for a while.
"But there are not many people who know about it. The Xiao family and the Cai family intend to suppress this matter, so even those who know do not dare to speak out at the risk of offending the Xiao and Cai families."
"Where did this rumor start? You write a letter to ask your father, and let him focus on investigating Xiao's residence."
Hearing this, Lu Chun stopped her tears, feeling that she had finally found her backbone, and hurried down to work.
In less than two hours, Xiao Suyang asked someone to answer. This rumor did not come from Xiao's residence.
In this way, the suspicion that the subordinates who knew the inside story of the matter would tell the matter was ruled out.
It is also possible that it came from the Cai Mansion.
But when Cai Kang learned about this, he lost his temper. Cai Kang is the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, so he would check their mansion to see if anyone had any unreasonable thoughts.
Luchun went to inquire, and no servants in Cai's mansion were beaten to death or punished this morning.
If it's not the Xiao Mansion or the Cai Mansion, then it's not from outside the palace, but from inside the palace.
Xiao Yueyao settled her mind, her eyes dimmed, she didn't know what to think.
"Ma'am...?"
Xiao Yueyao returned to her senses, and said coldly: "Change clothes, I will go to Qingfang Hall."
Lu Chun shook his head: "Young lady, you can't do it. The eldest young master and Rupin empress have had this incident. If the empress goes there alone, then those people don't know how to spread the word. They will definitely involve this on the young master. I feel that you must know about the relationship between the young master and Rupin when you go to Rupin's, empress. At that time, empress, you will definitely be inseparable."
Xiao Yueyao narrowed her eyes and slowly sat down.
Luchun went out for a while, and came in with a basin of warm water.
"Your Majesty, it's time to have lunch in a while. Your Majesty sent someone to send a message, saying that he will come over in a while, and this servant will help you change your clothes and put on your makeup."
