035 acquaintance
Seeing that the sky was gradually getting dark, the afterglow of the sunset shone on everyone's black robes, which made Qin Mofeng's face more gloomy.
Seeing that the situation was not good, a minister turned his head and asked Bai Shaoqing, "Why did the national master come here?"
"Looking for someone." Bai Shaoqing answered truthfully that she really wanted to confirm the voice of the man in the hall, otherwise she would have left long ago.
The minister said, "It's ridiculous! This is a forbidden place, and no one will come here. Is the national teacher pushing it?"
"Of course, what I said is the truth. You were not here at that time. How can you say that I am a deference?"
"So... can the national teacher have a witness to prove it?"
Bai Shaoqing was slightly stunned and remembered the maid of honor sent by the queen to lead the way for her, but there was no trace of the maid here. Thinking of the always dignified queen's unusual performance today, her heart suddenly brightened and she scolded herself for being confused, but she did not answer.
When the minister saw that she didn't say anything, he said, "It seems that no one can prove it. The national teacher, it's not that I don't believe you. What the national teacher can do is what our ministers admire, but now it is not easy to put on this matter, and the national teacher also said that he was willing to take responsibility. Those who have entered the forbidden land since ancient times are nothing more than two ways. One is to go out of the hall and die! Second, he was imprisoned in the hall for life. How to choose, the national teacher is at your own.
Before Bai Shaoqing answered, Qin Mofeng over there had already shouted angrily: "No, I am the king of a country. I am the imperial edict. Let her come out immediately!" But the ministers around him ignored what he said. Several people raised their heads and looked at Bai Shaoqing.
At this point, she knew that she had to make a decision. She turned her eyes on the faces of the ministers, returned to Qin Mofeng, and said indifferently, "I would like to..."
Qin Mofeng shouted, "Don't say stupid things!"
At the same time, another voice suddenly said, "I... can testify for the national teacher."
Everyone was stunned and turned their heads, but they saw an eunuch standing at the edge of the hall. Under the hazy sunset, he lowered his head and was indeed dressed in the inner eunuch's clothes.
Qin Mofeng seemed to see a glimmer of light. He ran down the steps in person, pulled him up and said, "Say it quickly. What do you see?"
The eunuch didn't dare to let him hold his hand. He hurriedly pulled out his hand and bowed to the ground and said, "I did find someone to come in when I saw the national teacher."
"Where do you work? Why are you here?" A minister asked.
"I am the flower slave in the royal flower courtyard. Today, I am on duty at the flower garden over there. In the afternoon, I saw the national master following a little maid of honor. Later, the maid of honor suddenly covered her stomach and left. The national master was here. She waited for a while and didn't see the maid of honor come back, so she found here."
"Where is the maid of honor?"
"I've met him once. It's Chu Yun, the little maid of honor from the queen."
"Go and send it now!" Qin Mofeng shouted, and an eunuch behind him suddenly ran away.
Although Bai Shaoqing couldn't see the man's face, he was somehow indescribably familiar with his voice. While thinking about it, he heard a minister ask, "Even if you get lost and walk here and the door is closed, the national teacher should also turn his head. How did he get to the hall?" What you said is not true, but be careful to suffer.
The eunuch said, "I came in with the national master, but I saw with my own eyes that the door was open when the national master came."
As soon as this statement came out, both Bai Shaoqing and the ministers were shocked. Bai Shaoqing was surprised that this person did not hesitate to make up lies to help her, but the ministers shook their heads and scolded, "How is this possible? There has always been a royal army here for generations, and no one can come in.
The eunuch said, "It's true. At that time, there was no imperial army here. If I had half a false statement, I would immediately thunder and die."
The minister snorted and said, "Have you been guarding here?"
The five royal troops looked at each other, but suddenly they were ashamed. One of them said, "It's really guarded here, but this afternoon, I always saw someone probe their heads here. At that time, we went to the surrounding fork in three ways to find people."
The ministers were suddenly in an uproar. Qin Mofeng said, "In this way, is there really someone who has an idea here to lead the national teacher here? Humph, his heart can be killed. Although he said such cruel words, it was not difficult for anyone to hear the joy in his words.
The ministers were silent for a moment, and then saw the summoning eunuch hurriedly coming and kowtoed, "Your Majesty... the maid of honor... jumped into the river!"
"What?" Everyone turned around and exclaimed at the same time.
"What's going on?" Qin Mofeng's voice was really low this time, as if he had seen the clues in it.
The eunuch said, "I was fine when I brought her here. She didn't say anything all the way. When she walked through the royal garden, she suddenly jumped. I... couldn't know water. When I called someone to pick her up, she was already out of breath."
Qin Zuofeng raised his cold eyes and looked at the harem for a moment. He hummed coldly and said, "Can you let the national teacher out now?"
The ministers looked at each other, and the one who had just said said, "The person who entered the forbidden land is not ordinary. Whether the national teacher enters by mistake or has the intention, people always go in..." As soon as he said this, he only heard the emperor snorted heavily. He hurriedly said, "But the national master is the Dongliang of the Qin Dynasty. If it is because of some people's calculations. I'm wrong to blame the national teacher, but I'm afraid it's a way to lose virtue. The national teacher, please come out, but this matter still needs to be found out. During this period, is it okay to ask the national teacher to ban his feet?
The imperial troops looked at each other and then took back the halberd. Bai Shaoqing slowly walked out of the hall and nodded, "Yes, the national division should obey it."
Such a thing can be solved in this way. Qin Mofeng was so unhappy. Looking at her close at her, he was happy in his heart and waved his hand to let the ministers disperse. He turned around and left with her, but saw that she stopped slightly beside the little eunuch. He immediately understood and smiled, "You have made a lot of contributions this time. In the future, you can follow the national teacher. I will reward you again." The eunuch kowtowed and followed the two of them with his head down.
Returning to the Xianhua Palace, Qin Mofeng sighed, "I didn't expect such a normal day to live and die. Tianyan, it was my negligence. It seems that you have an idea in this palace. Why on earth are you going there today? I remember that you don't like to enter the inner palace.
Bai Shaoqing looked at him, but didn't say much. He just said, "I didn't mean to go there. Your Majesty will worry about it."
"Don't you want to say it? Humph, I can also guess a few points!" When Qin Mofeng thought of this, the tenderness on his face suddenly turned fierce. Bai Shaoqing comforted him and finally sent him away. She immediately waved her hand to let the eunuch come in. The man stood outside the door for a moment before he carefully stepped into the room.
Bai Shaoqing dismissed the maids and asked, "Why do you lie to help me?"
The eunuch's body suddenly trembled slightly. After a moment, he heard his sobbing voice. Bai Shaoqing was about to ask again, but he raised his head. A pair of similar eyes were full of tears. His voice choked with excitement and stammered, "Are you... a... princess? Is it Princess Ping An?
