The next day, before dawn, the palace maids in the Qinzheng Hall started working.
Some of them were ironing the court dress that Suman was going to wear, while others were preparing morning tea. Everyone was very busy.
No one noticed that at the corner gate, a little palace maid was laboriously placing a large bag of clothes that needed to be washed on the laundry cart.
The wheels of the cart rolled on the gravel road, stopping and starting along the way, and finally stopped in front of the laundry room.
The palace maids inside took the clothes they were responsible for washing according to the marks of each palace. For a while, there was a constant sound of water and pounding.
In the afternoon, someone moved the worn-out clothes thrown in the corner onto a cart and transported them out of the palace.
These clothes were often transported to relief homes in the capital and distributed along with food to the poor and homeless people.
One of them was stained with a red mark and was taken away by a beggar-like man.
She was dressed in rags and had a bad smell, so no one wanted to approach her.
After receiving the food and clothes, she mixed in with the beggars and left.
-
"That person was very cunning. He chose to go to crowded places. If you didn't keep an eye on him, he would disappear."
Speaking of this, Wu Xia looked self-blaming, "It's Wu Xia's incompetence that made such a good opportunity slip away."
"No problem."
Su Man had long thought that the person behind the scenes would not be caught so easily, and did not hold much hope for her.
"Where did you lose me?"
"Wuliu Lane."
Su Man narrowed her eyes. "Wuliu Lane, are there any mansions around there?"
For a living person to disappear when so many eyes were staring at him, there must be someone to pick him up.
Wu Xia nodded, "The residences of Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of Personnel and Mr. Miao from the Ministry of Revenue are both there, and also..."
Wu Xia pondered deeply, and suddenly she remembered something, "Oh yes, there is also the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Prime Minister's Residence?"
There was a hint of surprise in Su Man's eyes, but she didn't say much. She said lightly, "I understand. You can go down first."
"yes."
After Wu Xia left, Su Man found a map of the capital, marked the location of Wuliu Lane, and fell into deep thought as she looked at the mansion she had circled on the map.
Judging from all that happened before, this traitor must be a powerful person.
But judging from this point of view, these three seem to fit the bill.
The first is Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of Personnel. As the person in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, she has always remained neutral and always looks like she has no desires or demands. No matter how you look at it, she doesn't seem like someone who would betray the country and collaborate with the enemy.
The current Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Miao Ruicai, was promoted by her, so she would not repay kindness with enmity.
There is also the female prime minister. She is an old minister and has always been a royalist supporting Diman. Moreover, her son is the Feng Jun of Dayong. With her current status, she really has no reason to rebel.
There is insufficient evidence at the moment and Suman cannot be sure.
Fortunately, she had used Di Zixiao as a trap yesterday, making them mistakenly believe that Di Zixiao was going to rebel. In order to avoid exposing their plan, they would definitely make a big move next, so she just had to wait and see.
Thinking of this, Su Man called out to the outside of the hall, "Someone come."
"What do you want, Your Majesty?"
The person who came in was Nong Shuang. Looking at the purple bruises under her eyes, I could tell that she didn't sleep well last night.
Seeing this, Su Man deliberately said, "Let's go and see Di Guijun."
Hearing Di Guijun's name, Nong Shuang's face froze for a moment, "Yes."
-
In the next few days, Su Man was with Di Zixiao almost every day.
With the care of the imperial physician, his health improved and he could even walk in the yard with the help of his servants.
That day, Di Zixiao was sitting in the yard basking in the sun. After all this ordeal, he became very thin, and the lines on his face became more obvious. Compared to his original delicate appearance, he looked more masculine and tough.
Seeing Su Man staring at him, Di Zixiao felt a little uncomfortable, "Is there something on my face?"
Su Man smiled and shook her head. "Nothing. I just feel that days like this are great."
Di Zixiao was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked around.
The early summer sunlight was soft and warm, shining on his body. The surrounding green plants had been trimmed and looked rejuvenated, which actually gave him the illusion that time was peaceful and tranquil.
Di Zixiao became alert. No, if he continued like this, he would be like boiling a frog in warm water.
He didn't continue to follow Su Man's words, and said coldly, "Your Majesty is joking."
"Are you kidding?"
Su Man was not annoyed by his reaction. Instead, she laughed at herself and said, "It would be unfair to you to make you like an ordinary man."
Before Di Zixiao could react, Su Man got up and left.
Di Zixiao opened his mouth in vain. No sound came out. He just clenched his fists, as if he was suppressing something.
-
For the next few days, Su Man did not go to Di Zixiao, which gave hope to all the male favorites in the harem, and they tried their best to win his favor.
Whenever Su Man goes out, she either meets someone dancing or hears someone playing the piano. Seeing these talent displays, Su Man wishes she could pack them up and send them off to form a group.
Ji Xiangying was naturally not idle either, but he had no talent, so he simply dragged Su Man to drink and forced Su Man to have sex after drinking.
Unfortunately, Su Man's alcohol tolerance was quite good, and Ji Xiangying slipped under the table while drinking, and Su Man had to pull him up by his hair.
As time went by, I didn't keep the favor, but I lost a lot of hair.
The harem is bustling, and the front dynasty is also not peaceful.
In the capital city, a large-scale armed fight broke out right under the feet of the emperor.
