The man approached him and whispered: "I just heard at the door that there is someone in your Xinzheku, if she secretly saves the items left by the masters before sending them to the fire, and then transports them out of the palace. I will guarantee you a fortune."
Gu Xiaochun was shocked when she heard it, and said, "Smuggling things in the palace is a big crime."
The man smiled softly and said, "It's about to be burned anyway, who will find out?"
Gu Xiaochun was still waiting for Yinliang to save her mother's life, and she was a little moved when she heard it, but at the same time, she felt that the matter was too risky, so she looked at the man and asked him vigilantly: "Such a good thing you earn yourself. That's it, why do you want to pull me up?"
Unexpectedly, the person sighed and replied: "I originally had someone in Xinzheku, but this person just passed away a few days ago, and now I have no access at all..."
When he said this, Gu Xiaochun had believed in eight or nine points, and the man took another silver coin from his arms and stuffed it into Gu Xiaochun's hands, saying: "You take these to honor those people at the door, do you not do it? You can do it yourself, I won’t force you, get out of the car!"
After speaking, he asked the coachman to stop the car and let Gu Xiaochun get off. When he left, he didn't forget to add: "This opportunity is fleeting. It's up to you whether you can grasp it."
Gu Xiaochun watched the carriage move away, and hurriedly chased it a few steps forward and asked, "Then how can I find you?"
The man turned his head from the car with a smile, and replied, "I will find you."
Gu Xiaochun looked at the carriage disappearing on the corner of the street, then looked down at the silver ingot in his hand, and his mother's old and weak face could not help but appeared in front of him. He gritted his teeth, squeezed the silver tightly, and turned back to Xin. From the direction of the library. When he reached the door of Xinzheku, the silver was handed out, and the guards immediately changed their faces and let him in.
Xinzhe Kuri, Qingchuan heard that Gu Xiaochun came to see her, hurried over and asked eagerly: "Xiaochun, you are finally here, did the fire at home hurt anyone?"
Gu Xiaochun was startled, and couldn't help asking, "How do you know that there is a fire at home?"
Qingchuan said anxiously: "Don't worry about how I know, just say, how are you? How is Auntie?"
Gu Xiaochun sighed and replied: "I'm okay, but my mother was choked by the smoke. The doctor said that if I don't have money to take medicine, I'm afraid I will be in danger of life."
Qingchuan felt guilty when she heard it, "It's so serious? I'm all to blame, I'm all to blame..."
Gu Xiaochun heard this strangely, and asked wonderingly: "What does this have to do with you?"
Qingchuan looked around carefully, pulled Gu Xiaochun aside, and whispered: "Liang Concubine used you to threaten me and asked me to separate from Ba Ge."
"what?"
Qingchuan felt very sorry, and blamed herself: "I'm sorry Xiaochun, but I've caused you again. If my aunt has a long and two shortcomings, I won't be at ease in this life."
Gu Xiaochun knew that there was no way to blame Qingchuan for this matter, so she shook her head and said, "It's none of your business, don't blame yourself. The most important thing right now is to raise money for my mother's illness."
Qingchuan calmed down and asked, "How much does Auntie's illness cost?"
Gu Xiaochun smiled bitterly and replied: "The doctor said that even acupuncture and moxibustion take medicine at least one hundred taels."
Qingchuan was also taken aback. After she was punished by Kangxi into the Xinzheku, all the belongings she had saved before were detained by the people in the palace. If she could still find eighth brother before, she is even now. Brother's path has also been broken, and she hasn't seen him again since that day.
Thinking of Ba Age, Qingchuan couldn't help but feel a pain, shook his head hurriedly, and withdrew his mind to the predicament before him.
Gu Xiaochun looked at Qingchuan and whispered: "I have one way, it is a bit risky. I wonder if you will help?"
Qingchuan said anxiously: "You said."
Gu Xiaochun leaned in Qingchuan’s ear, whispered the method that the man on the road had told him in detail, and said: "He said that many people have done this before, like embroidery, silk, etc. The things you want are easy to sell after going out."
Qingchuan didn't expect that Gu Xiaochun would tell her to steal the things from the palace and sell it, and he couldn't help but hesitate for a while.
Seeing her embarrassed, Gu Xiaochun felt a little uneasy, and quickly said: "Qingchuan, if you are embarrassed..."
"No!" Qingchuan had already made a decision and interrupted him: "Don't worry, I will give you something."
Before breakfast the next day, the female slaves in Xinzhekuli sorted out all the discarded clothes to be burned on the fire ground as usual. Because the eighth elder brother had previously confessed that she was not allowed to give Qingchuan a heavy job, so she sent the job to the fire scene to Qingchuan.
Qingchuan entered the storeroom and randomly checked the clothes to be burned, and said to the female slave next to him: "It is not convenient for us to carry it like this, and it is easy to be disturbed by the wind when it is burned. Wrap it up and take it over."
The female slaves in the room agreed, and they found some furoshiki, packed all the clothes one by one, and after they were all sorted, they went to the dining hall to eat. However, Qingchuan took advantage of everyone's efforts to eat breakfast, secretly swapping out some of the clothes in some of the baggage with something like coarse cloth thatch, and hid it aside.
After everyone had breakfast, they came to the warehouse to carry some burdens and followed Qingchuan to the fire scene.
Afraid that someone would find out that the clothes in the baggage had been replaced by her, Qingchuan stood at the stove and went inside to stuff the baggage. It was burning, but saw a eunuch brought a pair of extremely delicate and beautiful women's shoes, and raised his hand to throw it into the stove. The female slave next to him hurriedly stopped him, wondering: "Hey, this shoe is so beautiful, why did you throw it away?"
The eunuch replied casually: "This was made by Ba elder brother Shangyijian. It was just finished today. I don't know why Ba elder brother doesn't like it anymore. He told me to burn it here.
After speaking, he threw the shoes into the fire.
Qingchuan suddenly remembered the time when Ba Ge measured her feet with his hands and said that she would give her the most beautiful pair of shoes. Now, this pair of beautiful shoes was finally made, but she never had the chance to wear them again. . On the fire, the flames licked the shoes lightly, Qingchuan was in a daze, and she looked a little dazed for a while.
I heard someone yelling from behind: "Don't burn! Don't burn!"
A familiar figure passed by Qingchuan, and put his hand into the stove without hesitation, quickly snatched the pair of shoes out, patted the flames on them, and then held the shoes tightly into his hands. .
The eunuch saw the eighth elder brother burned his hand, so he knelt on the ground in fright, and cried out: "The slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die."
Qingchuan was bitter in his mouth, and walked forward silently, took out the veil from his arms to bandage the injured hand of Ba Ge. Eighth Brother looked down at her, but opened her hand and said coldly: "I didn't keep these shoes because I wanted to remember something, but to remind myself not to be so stupid in the future."
Qingchuan paused, did not speak, turned around and left with a few companions.
Eighth elder brother stood there blankly, staring blankly at the blazing flames in the stove. It wasn't until the eunuch beside him gave a surprised "Huh" that Eighth Brother came back to his senses and looked at the eunuch questioningly. The eunuch built a fire stick from the ground, pulled out some of the contents of the fire, and motioned to him to see, "Big Brother, look, why is there still thatch in there?"
Eighth-age looked down and saw that most of the baggage was covered with thatch, and there were some clods and coarse cloth. He couldn't help but startled. These baggages were brought by Qingchuan to burn them. It is hardly possible that it has something to do with her. ? He thought for a while and told the eunuch: "No one can tell about this. Go to Xinzheku and follow Qingchuan secretly to see what she does every day."
The little eunuch went, and came back in the evening to report to my eighth elder brother: "The minion just watched the Qingchuan girl secretly throwing some baggage into the underpass of Yuhe. It is estimated that he was going to smuggle those things out of the palace. ."
Eighth prince frowned. Qingchuan is not a greedy person, why would he do such a thing? Who does she ship those things to? A person suddenly flashed in his mind, Gu Xiaochun! Qingchuan must be for that Gu Xiaochun again! He was furious and couldn't take much care of him for a while. He got up and came to Xinzheku. Before he reached the door of Xinzheku, he saw Qingchuan and Gu Xiaochun standing not far from the door, avoiding the guards. Jun, was whispering something.
Eighth brother paused at his feet, did not rush forward, only dodged behind the wall aside.
Both Qingchuan and Gu Xiaochun were a little nervous and didn't notice Ba Ge. Qingchuan glanced carefully at the Guards not far away, and whispered to Gu Xiaochun: "I have wrapped everything up as you wanted and put it in the Yuhe River. The current is very fast these days. I believe I will rush outside the palace soon."
Gu Xiaochun was very grateful, and said guiltily: "Thanks for your hard work. If my mother's disease weren't too serious, I wouldn't let you take such a risk."
Qingchuan shook his head, "I'm fine, how is the situation with Auntie?"
As soon as he mentioned his mother, Gu Xiaochun couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable, and replied, "The doctor said that the medicine must be taken immediately for these two days.
Qingchuan heard it and said anxiously: "Then you quickly change things for money and give her medicine. In a few days, I will go to the street to buy with Mother Jin. Then I will try to come and see you again. I will go back first. It's suspicious."
Gu Xiaochun nodded, and Qingchuan turned and entered Xinzheku. Gu Xiaochun looked a little excited, and walked out in large strides. The Eighth Brother, who was hiding by the side, thought for a while, followed behind him secretly, and saw that Gu Xiaochun really went straight to the exit of Yuhe outside the palace.
Looking down at night, I could faintly see something floating from the secret passage in the palace. Gu Xiaochun jumped into the water with a "puff", and picked up the baggage floating along the river one by one, and threw it into it. ashore.
Eighth Brother rushed up from behind, opened the bag, and saw that it was filled with embroideries and other objects used in the palace. His heart was shocked and angry, and he kicked Gu Xiaochun who was climbing on the shore. , Said angrily: "Mi Qingchuan still treats you as a good friend, you actually asked her to help you smuggle things in the palace, do you know this is a serious crime of decapitation?"
