Chapter 17
Dongyue shook her head in embarrassment, "I got out of the dog hole."

The dog hole was hidden deep, and there were dense bushes on both sides of the inside and outside, so it was difficult to find. She also accidentally fell down and realized that there was an exit here.

Nan Zhen thought about it, and it made sense.

She lay back on the rocking chair again, tapped the armrest with her fingers, and asked, "How much do you know about Concubine Xian?"

She deliberately asked Dongyue to release the news that she was not dead, in order to catch the person behind the scenes, and today's release is basically confirmed.

The people from other palaces were just curious and wanted to come over to find out the truth, but the people from Zhongcui Palace came the most frequently, and even the real master came in the end.

Concubine Xian also looked at her strangely, it wasn't out of pure hatred, let alone causing trouble for no reason, it was like several emotions mixed together, making it difficult to distinguish.

The only thing that is certain is that she wants to die by herself.

Dongyue put down the stick, sat next to Nan Zhen, and said carefully, "The concubine Xian comes from the Chen family, her father is the general of the town, and her mother is also a high-ranking lady, but the most famous of the Chen family is Mrs. Chen." .”

"How to say?"

"Old Madam Chen was appointed by the late Emperor to be his Madam. She was very capable. She followed the late General Chen in the army and loved Concubine Xian very much. She would visit her in the palace from time to time."

Nan Zhen lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, but she had some fragmented impressions, "What about Concubine Xian, how is it in the palace?"

"There is no empress in the palace now, so Concubine Xian and Concubine Duan are the two to manage the affairs of the Six Palaces together. According to rumors, Concubine Xian is very jealous and once secretly executed a beauty."

Dongyue lowered her voice, "Everyone said that she was jealous of the beauty's appearance, that's why she killed her."

My mother is so beautiful, it's no wonder that others will come to find fault again and again.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Appearance is a natural thing. If you have it, you have it. If you don't, you don't have it. How can you just take someone's life at will!
Seeing that her cheeks were flushed and puffed up slightly, Nan Zhen couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you so angry at yourself?"

"This servant thinks it's wrong!" Her pursed mouth could hang oil bottles on it.

"A confidante is unlucky, if she has beauty but no ability to protect herself, she will only die faster."

She has seen this kind of thing a lot.

"But I like your attitude." Nan Zhen patted her on the head, "It takes a lot of courage to dare to oppose injustice, but this does not mean acting recklessly, do you understand?"

Dongyue nodded with a half-understanding, Nan Zhen no longer entangled in this matter, and asked again, "What about Your Majesty, who is also very kind to Concubine Xian?"

"That's not true. Your Majesty doesn't come to the harem very often, and I don't see him having a preference for any master."

Nan Zhen raised the corner of her mouth, the emperor didn't come to the harem often, but the concubines kept fighting over it.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, she raised her head and drank the last bit of tea in the pot, then got up, "Clean up and get ready to cook."

"Okay! I'm going now, servant girl."

It is night, and the moon is at the head.

Nan Zhen was wearing white clothes and a white hood, walking in the bright moonlight.

The skirt swayed at the feet, and the steps were light and fast, like a cat at night.

She didn't know the location of Zhongcui Palace very well, and it took a long way to find Concubine Xian's bedroom. When she landed, the bell rang and was blown by the wind.

Nan Zhen moved forward close to the door, and finally stopped outside a room filled with gurgling water and steam.
