Zhong Su's heart tightened, and he quickly calmed down.

De Yin bowed his head and nodded, glanced at Zhong Su, then froze for a moment.

The contrast between this woman and Mr. Ji is too great.The woman has only the word "dirty" all over her body, and her face is even more unbearable to look at; as for Master Ji, he is clean and tidy, even holding the imperial-given knife in a decent manner, with every gesture. The demeanor of Confucian generals.

Could it be...

Deyin immediately concealed his slightly surprised expression.

Mr. Ji is a famous person beside the emperor, and he has always regarded himself very highly. This time, there must be a lot of inside information to have a court lady like this by his side.

It is very likely that this is what the Ninth Five-Year Lord above Mr. Ji meant.

Xiao Yinzi has been in the palace for many years, it is not easy to get into this position, she considers the severity of the matter to be quite standard.He thought quickly, then bowed respectfully to Ji Munian, then turned to bow to Zhong Su, and said: "I don't know which palace the girl is working in, Xiao Yinzi can help the girl check."

Before he finished speaking, the person sitting on the chair waved his hand first, interrupting Deyin's questioning.

"She said she just arrived in the palace and forgot where she was on duty."

"..." Is that okay?Can such a woman enter the palace?De Yin thought to himself, when did the Accounting Department get down to the point where he would pick people at will, regardless of food or food.

But he was also considered calm and seasoned, he concealed what he was thinking, and asked the woman again.

"Then dare to ask where the girl lives?"

The residences of the maids of honor had their own arrangements, and he could also find out where the women came from and where they went to work by checking the residences.

The person sitting next to him listened and waved his hand again.The movement of waving his hands is more crisp and agile than before.

"She got lost last night and forgot where she lived."

"..."

There are few rare flowers in the world, and this one is in front of you.

Deyin thought about it for a while, finally weighed it, and asked cautiously: "Then dare to ask the girl's surname? If you have a name, Xiao Yinzi can also find out the distribution in the palace."

No matter how bad a person is, he will always remember his name.

Hearing that Xiao Yinzi's question was correct this time, Ji Munian was full of smiles, thinking about how the woman should answer.

Zhong Su paused.When he came here, he wanted to use the name of "Xiao Xi" to get away with it, but after seeing the flogging by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and hearing Ji Munian's intentional or unintentional warnings, he naturally didn't dare to say the name of Xiao Xi again.

Although Xiao Xi died in the name of Concubine Qi, he could not live in Xiao Xi's name.

He was silent for a while, seeing that the eyes of the two people beside him were staring at him, he couldn't help but murmur.

"I am Mr. Lee."

Zhang, San, Li, Four, Wang, and Five, are the top three surnames in Han Dynasty, and the Li surname is even at the top of the list, which has not fallen all the year round.

Zhong Su thought, if you say the surname Li, you can fish in troubled waters.

Then, he closed his mouth and said nothing.

Ji Munian slightly closed his eyes, silently tapping on the table with his finger bones.

Sweat broke out on Deyin's forehead.

Just a surname Li?This woman is not going to say her name?

He heard Ji Munian's knocking on the table slowly, and then gradually became faster, as if urging him to check the register quickly.

De Yin reacted quickly, and ran to the shelf to get the roster to check.

There were so many palace ladies in the Forbidden Palace, so he didn't go through every one of them, he just picked a few palaces that were closer to the emperor's residence to have a closer look, and then he picked out the names of those people from among a bunch of people.

"May I ask if the girl's name is Li Xiu'er?"

Zhong Su didn't dare to answer directly.

"Li Xiu'er, who is in charge of clearing soil outside the Imperial Study Room, just entered the palace a few days ago." De Yin said.

Of course, he wouldn't say that even though this Li Xiu'er had just entered the palace, somehow she was fished out of a well in the corner outside Fengmei Garden.

There were many intrigues in the palace, and one or two people would die every few days. Most of these people had offended several powerful masters, and no one dared to investigate after death.

If it wasn't for Li Xiu'er's vacancy in the roster that came up early today in the public newspaper of the Imperial Study Room, he would not have known that the female corpse was this guy.The reason for this matter was known to no one but him, but the woman in front of him called herself Li, since Mr. Ji came here at the emperor's will, naturally he had to flatter her.

Ji Munian opened his eyes, stopped knocking on the table, and spread out a palm.Deyin immediately handed it over, and Ji Munian glanced at it for a while.

"From Qutian, Huizhou." He raised his eyes to look at Zhong Su, and suddenly smiled.

"Sure enough, he's a countryman."

"..." Zhong Su remained silent, feeling surprised.

"Still a sweeper."

"..."

"Tsk tsk!"

"..."

Ji Munian nodded while talking, "Xiao Yinzi, this matter is well done."

Deyin was overjoyed, and immediately bowed down: "Thank you Mr. Ji for your compliment."

Ji Munian threw the booklet back on the desk, got up and patted his back, passed by Zhong Su, but strode away again.

Zhong Su immediately followed again.

Doubts arose in his heart, thinking of what Ji Munian did just now, he felt full of doubts.

Zhong Su hadn't admitted that he was Li Xiu'er yet, but it was Mr. Ji who did it first.He thought carefully about Mr. Ji's words about going to the Accounting Department, and his heart shuddered.

Mr. Ji probably knew that he had something to do with Shen Jinggong.

But he was hiding his needles in the cotton, and he didn't reveal his intentions at all, probably to observe his behavior.

It's just that Zhong Su came to this world for the first time, and he wasn't even familiar with the road in the palace, and he didn't dare to move around, so he didn't show any flaws.

The only flaw may be that his behavior does not look like a woman in this person's eyes.

Zhong Su smiled wryly in his heart.

He was never a woman.

Zhong Su was thinking secretly, when Ji Munian, who was walking in front, suddenly stepped aside, the man frowned slightly, covering his mouth and nose with his sleeve.

After he made way, three people walked on the road, two were standing, and one was dragging on the ground.

Zhong Su fixed his eyes and saw that the person dragging on the ground was upside down, and was dragged horizontally on the ground by the two people who were walking on the ground, drawing a long bloodstain where the dragging passed.And that man's face was ferocious, his eyes were staring at one side, his eyeballs were protruding, revealing the frightening whites of his eyes, his pupils dilated, he was already dead.

The person who was dragged to the ground was the woman who had just entered the House of Internal Affairs and was flogged.

The woman's death was tragic, and it was estimated that she was beaten to death abruptly.

Zhong Su was used to seeing life and death in the past, when he looked at the dead body, he just avoided it.

Ji Munian covered his nose with his sleeve and continued walking.The woman was dragged all the way there, so the road was dripping with blood, which was shocking.

The two walked straight on the road, and after a while, they heard the sound of splashing water and sweeping the floor.

Ji Munian's footsteps paused slightly, and then he turned a corner.

The gate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is just ahead.

But there was a group of people standing at the door, some of them were cleaning up the blood, and another eunuch with good decoration materials knelt down on the ground, and a thousand people bowed down behind him, but in front of this eunuch, there was a piece of red sandalwood. There was a big wooden chair with a layer of sable fur on it. A beautiful woman in a gorgeous dress sat on it, with long sleeves and a peach-colored shirt embroidered with dark red peonies. She was gorgeous and elegant.Behind her stood several court ladies and eunuchs, waiting by her side.

The gorgeously dressed beauty seemed to have noticed Zhong Su and Ji Munian, and looked in their direction.

Ji Munian put down his hand covering his nose, walked silently not far from the beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes, raised his clothes, knelt on one knee in a clean place, lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head.

"Chen Ji Munian knelt down to see the imperial concubine."
