Chapter 4 As Expected, the Nanny Took Action!
The north wind howled.
Xiao Chuchu woke up halfway, and while drowsily drinking milk, she heard the sound in the hall.
"Yingda, this nanny is indeed problematic, plotting something bad, and we caught her red-handed!"
Xiao Chuchu opened her eyes with difficulty and found that Liu Yingda was holding her, and seemed to be lying on the long couch in the inner study.
Not in the original bedroom.
"Tie her up, and ask the eunuch in charge of the clan house to come!"
Liu Yingda gave the order, but she lowered her voice for fear of waking up her daughter in her arms.
Xiao Chuchu was dazed, as if the crisis of their serious illness caused by the wind on winter nights was resolved?
Did they catch the person in the act?
It's good that she's fine.
She hummed twice, but couldn't stand the tiredness of the baby.
After eating, Liu Yingda gently patted her back and fell asleep again.
On the second day, Xiao Chuchu woke up in the arms of her fragrant mother. Just as she stretched her legs secretly, she heard a sharp and thin voice in the room.
"I didn't know people well. I let this ignorant and murderous slave close to the little princess."
"Please forgive me!"
While he was talking, Xiao Chuchu had already opened her eyes curiously.
I saw this eunuch in charge of the Zongrenfu, who was of medium height but had a wide body and a round face, stuffed a gold bag to Qiuli, the maid of Liu Yingda!
The Zongrenfu, which manages slaves, has always been a lucrative job.
If the concubines want to find a reliable slave or maid, they have to give some benefits to the Zongrenfu manager.
It is rare that the Zongrenfu gives money to the concubines!
Especially those of low status like Liu Yingda.
Xiao Chuchu smacked her lips.
The maid Qiuli, who received the gold ingot, also looked at Liu Yingda in doubt.
Liu promised to refuse sternly, but she felt the little girl's feet in her arms move.
[After this incident, the eunuch who assigned this nanny to Liu promised to be afraid of being implicated, and in the novel, he also sent money to my mother early in the morning. ]
[But my mother confiscated it, and ended up being hated by this eunuch. ]
[Later, the eunuchs assigned to my mother by the clan government were all crooked, stupid, lazy and useless. ]
Liu promised to breathe heavily.
After last night, it has been proved that the voice of the little princess she heard was true!
At this moment, Liu promised to ignore what she heard. She hurriedly followed her daughter's voice and looked at the eunuch bending over with a smile in front of her.
[This eunuch recognized Wang Zhi, the eunuch who served in front of the palace, as his adoptive father. This incident with the nanny did not affect him later. ]
[Strictly speaking, he did not deal with the dirty thing that the nanny wanted to freeze my mother and me to death. 】
Xiao Chuchu, who was in the swaddling clothes, looked at the money bag with envy.
【Alas, but my mother refused the ten taels of gold he sent. Not only did she lose money, but she also offended the villain, which would cause endless troubles. 】
Xiao Chuchu couldn't help but open her mouth and anxiously said to Liu Da Ying, "Ah, ah!" twice.
Liu Da Ying's beautiful eyes flashed, and she nodded slightly to the palace maid Qiu Li.
Qiu Li understood and hurriedly accepted the gold bag from the eunuch in charge.
【Wow, my mother's palace fighting level is not low, so smart! That's right, the investigation is the investigation, and the money is the money. Who said that you can't accept money when investigating people! 】
【If you don't accept it, it's a waste~ There are ten taels of gold in it~】
【You can order meat and vegetables for a month in the kitchen~】
Xiao Chuchu grinned happily.
If it weren't for the baby's body, she would have wanted to give Liu Da Ying a thumbs up.
Liu Da Ying couldn't help but smile at her cute little smile.
The eunuchs of the Imperial Clan Court standing below immediately felt relieved when they saw this.
This Liu Da Ying is a smart one.
He thought she was going to scold him and send him to the Ministry of Punishment for investigation. If that was the case, he would have to ask his godfather to make some arrangements and fight Liu Da Ying to the death.
But now she has accepted the money and still smiles at him, which makes her sensible.
In this case, he should return the favor and not fool her with those perfunctory words.
The eunuch in charge of the Imperial Clan Court bowed to Liu Da Ying sincerely this time.
"I interrogated the nanny all night yesterday."
"She said she was jealous of the queen being able to be with the little princess every day, so she couldn't help but do it."
"Because when she saw you mother and daughter relying on each other, she thought of her three-month-old son. Thinking that she entered the palace to serve the princess, but couldn't feed her own child, she hated the princess to the bone!"
"If the princess died young, she could go home!"
What a twisted logic!
Liu promised to be very angry.
The nanny should enter the palace voluntarily.
If she didn't report it herself and took the initiative to register at the clan house, she wouldn't be on the list of nannies.
Even if she regretted it after entering the palace, she could tell her clearly that she wanted to go home to nurse her own child. Would she not let her go?
How could this nanny harm such a young child for this!
Liu promised to be angry and scared.
But the eunuch of the clan house glanced at her vaguely.
"Let the promise know that this nanny is from Hangzhou."
Liu promised to be stunned.
Hangzhou?
This came out of the blue, but Liu promised to understand it after a little thought.
She listened to her daughter's voice and accepted the money, just not to pursue the eunuch's statement.
The eunuch did her a favor and hinted at the real reason why the nanny murdered the princess?
Hangzhou, related to the mastermind?
[Wow, Chen Changzai's nanny is from Hangzhou~]
Xiao Chuchu also recalled the eunuch's words and hummed quickly.
[But the nanny who committed the crime insisted that it was her jealousy. Under the torture of the Ministry of Punishment, it was not found out that it was related to Chen Changzai. ]
Chen Changzai, it turned out to be her!
Liu promised to be shocked. She and Chen Changzai entered the palace at the same time and lived in the Donghua Palace of Minpin.
For many years, they were both unpopular and close like sisters.
Xiao Chuchu blew bubbles tiredly, [Hey, Chen Changzai is jealous of her mother who is as unpopular as her, but has two children...]
Liu promised to be stunned.
After a long time, Liu agreed to take a deep breath, "Thank you, eunuch, to go with me to see Minpin."
She lived with Xiao Gege in the right hall of Minpin's Donghua Palace. Usually, according to the rank, she was below Minpin, so if there was anything, she had to inform Minpin first.
What's more, this matter was probably related to Chen Changzai who lived in the left hall.
The eunuch of the clan government immediately bowed, "Just promise to order!"
*
At five o'clock in the morning, the third drum sounded.
In the Ganxi Wusuo where the princes lived, the fifth prince specially asked the eunuch to get a basin of cold water and put a towel on his face to wake him up.
He tossed and turned last night and almost didn't sleep all night.
In his mind, he was thinking about the strange voice of his sister heard yesterday.
Could it be true?
If there was a bold and cunning servant who murdered his sister and mother at night, it would prove that his sister's other voices might also come true, including the tragic ending of him and his mother's family.
The Fifth Prince thought about these things last night, regretting that he didn't care enough about his mother, and reflecting on his own lack of strength.
And more importantly, he was worried about whether his mother and sister had escaped the murder of the slave in the middle of the night.
He was so entangled that he couldn't sleep all night.
At this moment, the Fifth Prince pressed his forehead with a cold towel, but his eyes were always looking at the door of his courtyard.
Soon, a little eunuch ran into the courtyard in a hurry in his field of vision. The other party ran too fast and almost fell.
The Fifth Prince's heart immediately trembled.
His eyes were like swords, and before the other party lifted the curtain, he asked, "How is it!?"
The little eunuch panted, "Fifth Prince, I just went to get an early meal. As you said, I went to the gate of Donghua Palace to find the purse you dropped there. As a result, I saw Liu Ying taking the little princess and tying the wet nurse to the main hall of Minpin!"
The Fifth Prince stood up and threw the towel into the basin!
At the same time, in the Liu Mansion on the back street of Xifang in the capital.
The old lady of the Liu family also had dark circles under her eyes, and looked towards the direction of the palace with worry.
"Madam, a note was sent from the palace. It said that there was a problem with the wet nurse next to our concubine!"
"Our concubine cried to Concubine Min, and Concubine Min asked the queen to let our Liu family recommend two familiar wet nurses to serve the little princess!"
Madam Liu knocked over the blue and white teacup next to her with a bang.
