The sun is thinning towards the west, and the glow is pleasant.
A palace maid hurriedly walked along the corridor. She saw her brother Shu Wuluan coming from a distance, and she hurriedly quickened her pace.
"Master Geshu is here just in time. The queen has something to do and she has asked you to take care of it!" Gong E said as she gradually came to the woman.
The woman stopped, looked up at Gong E and asked, "Dan'er, what's going on?"
This is the palace maid who takes over the daily chores of serving the concubine. She is also cautious and smart.
"His Second Highness's birthday will be in a few days. The empress wants you to leave the palace immediately and go to Yaxian Pavilion to pick out a birthday gift!" Gong Edan'er said respectfully.
Ge Shu Wuluan raised his eyebrows unexpectedly. She had been a little worried about the case these days, and she actually forgot that Su'er's birthday was coming soon. She only remembered it after being reminded.
Speaking of Su'er, this child usually likes things outside the palace. Therefore, every time it is his birthday, the concubine will order her to go out of the palace to choose gifts.
"Are you going now?" Brother Shu Wuluan looked at the sky and said in surprise.
"Yes!" Gong E replied.
"I know this, please go back to your mother-in-law!"
Gong E bowed, turned around and walked away.
Qiu Hu listened behind the woman for a long time. When he saw Gong'e walking away, he stepped forward and said softly: "Sir, let others handle this matter. You don't need to do it yourself!"
The reason why he said this was because he was afraid that after leaving the palace, there would be too many people in the market to keep an eye on her.
However, Ge Shu Wuluan is so shrewd, how could he not see his little thoughts
Her face turned cold, and she yelled slightly sulkily: "How presumptuous! The king ordered you two to accompany me, not to dictate to me!"
Her cold eyes made Qiu Hu startled, and he hurriedly explained falsely: "I don't dare to be humble! I am just showing sympathy for your hard work!"
The case was still pending, so he had better not offend Lord Jin Yihou easily, otherwise, he would suffer the consequences when her innocence was proven one day!
The woman sneered coldly, her eyes wandering between Qiu Hu, who was clasping his fists and frowning, and Wang Long, who was bowing and silent, "As a minister, how can I talk about hard work? If you feel it's hard, you can resign and go home to sell money." Sweet potatoes, where do all the complaining words come from?”
"My lord, what I'm trying to teach you is that lower-ranking people will benefit a lot!" the two replied with stunned expressions.
Seeing that the two of them became more submissive after being intimidated by her, Brother Shu Wuluan smiled faintly, his expression suddenly changed, and he sighed in a strange way: "Hey! Speaking of Young Master Su's birthday, I have to choose something carefully. A congratulatory gift to make the Second Highness smile!"
Her words made the two of them surprised, "What did your Excellency say? With your current status, why do you need to go to such great lengths to please His Highness?"
"Why do you think I got the position of Marquis of Jinyi? Of course, I can't relax my hand for a moment! Hey, learn a little, it will be useful in the future!" This statement obviously means that she got it by flattering her. The current status is not deliberately supported by the concubine!
Of course she had a purpose in saying this. She thought that when she came to the imperial palace, she would secretly report her every word and deed to the monarch. If she didn't put on a flattering face, how could she dispel the monarch's suspicion of the concubine
At the end of the conversation, he patted the two of them on the shoulders, shook their heads and walked away, leaving the two of them staring at each other for a long time with their mouths twitching.

Ge Shu Wuluan received the order from the concubine in the evening, hurriedly changed into a set of men's clothes and left the palace. Of course, the two "dutiful shadows" were inevitably behind him.
The sky is getting dark and the night lights are starting to turn on.
Dongdu Street is crowded with people, noisy, and very lively. Most of them come to catch the night market.
A light blue figure crossed the main street and walked slowly towards Zhenxi Lane, a side street.
This alley is not too long, and there are not many shops on both sides. However, the facades are extremely simple and elegant. The goods sold in these shops are some treasures, calligraphy, paintings, and antique jades, which are unparalleled in the Eastern Capital City. Called second to none.
Brother Shu Wuluan walked to the door of Yaxianxuan, looked back and said, "Just a moment, you two, I will come out after selecting the gifts."
"Sir, I have a humble position and the king's orders. I'm sorry..."
The two imperial guards bowed behind her. Before she could even finish the words "I'll accept my orders", they were interrupted by the woman who coldly waved her sleeves and said, "Stop! Come in together. Remember, stay five steps away from me." Get out!"
People walk on their backs and drink cold water until their teeth are clogged!
If she is followed by these two annoying guys for two more days, I'm afraid she will go crazy!
This is not possible. She needs to find a strategy quickly to get rid of the surveillance. Otherwise, she will not be able to investigate this case!
The ultimatum given by the Maharaja to Tieli was to close the case within seven days, and Tieli naturally wouldn't look for any clues. He was eager to take her into custody and sentence her immediately! Seeing that this day was wasted in vain, if she can't find any evidence to prove her innocence, when the seven-day deadline is up, I'm afraid she will really have to taste the prison of the Supervisory Camp!
