The Lord who use immortals as food

Pei Ye actually didn't know what the symbolism of communication through a water channel was, and what kind of intentions and purposes were hidden behind it.

But he believed that the cold blade that suddenly appeared in Mingyue Palace that night did not come suddenly. It must have its foreshadowing. Otherwise, they had too many better opportunities to take action. Why did they choose to do it in the dormitory on that spring night?

In other words, if they were free enough, they could make too many people disappear quietly over the years. The Liguan case would not be committed, the Taiping Cao Gang would not be destroyed, Yuan Zhao might not have the chance to ascend to the position of minister, Xu Chuo The bodies may have been separated long ago.

Even for the mirage who seems to have mastered certain laws, the spiritual realm may be too "quiet and secluded" and inhumane.

What's more, that was twenty-three years ago, and maybe they were still using the most bloody and brutal method to select a Green Wind user.

So they must have made a lot of preparations in the palace before they finally made that sword strike on the spring night. However, at that time, people had never heard of such a thing, so many signs seemed so ordinary. Like the birds passing by at the edge of the field of vision, no one will specifically cast any thoughts on it.

It was the early morning of the next day. Pei Ye didn't take anyone with him. He picked up the jade tiger and tied the Yanjian brand around his waist. He walked westward from the Zhujing Palace through the entire Ming Palace, leaving the residence of the emperor's sons and concubines, and passed through two roads. High wall, entering the Yeting Palace on the west.

If Pei Ye lives in the side palace of Zhu Jing, Ye Ting is the side palace of the entire palace city. A large number of palace maids and eunuchs live here, and they are in charge of washing, mulching silkworms, breeding horses, funerals, and labor services... It provides all access to the Daming Palace, as well as all expenses, food and clothing. The Yeting Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs controls this area, and everyone is registered, just like another small county town.

In fact, this is indeed the case. People who live here often spend their entire lives in this land. Many people come here in their teens and never see outside the palace walls again until they die of old age, illness, and illness. Only those concubines or widows who were literate or talented in singing and dancing were assigned to the bookstore and music studio, or they still had the possibility of leaving or entering the Daming Palace next to it.

When Pei Ye walked in, she could see the busy atmosphere. A dozen maids wearing headscarves poured cold water into the ditch and warmed their red hands under their armpits. The older woman next to her urged her. Drying; an ox cart filled with ingredients drives in from the south gate and is driven by several eunuchs wrapped in coats. The ingredients will be unloaded in Yeting for preliminary processing, and then sent to the back of the imperial dining room according to the order. kitchen.

Pei Ye walked north along the road. The names of various offices were written on the courtyards on both sides. Some were open and kept coming in and out, some were closed, some were noisy and some were quiet, and the sounds in his ears were biased. Xijian, first of all, there are mostly women here, and secondly, the remaining men are eunuchs.

But these courtyards were not what Pei Ye was looking for. He walked all the way to the north end. There was no trace of water on the ground here, the courtyards were sparse, and there were a few low-rise pavilions. He raised his head to identify it and stepped into a courtyard with an open door. The three words on the plaque were "Xi Guanju".

Although it is not a crowded place, there are many people coming and going.

"Eunuch He, you have to be eight or nine with me. The cloth is so heavy, and the girls' arms are sore after unloading it. How can they do the delicate work." A dignified female official stood in the courtyard, "The deadline is already tight, and there are so many tricks. It’s so complicated.”

"The embroidery workshop will have to wait." The narrow-eyed eunuch surnamed He took a pamphlet and stood it in the courtyard and wrote it. He looked calm and didn't have much energy to speak, "Everyone has been sent out. I want to set up a fight, come back at night, and I can meet the four of you tomorrow."

He raised his eyes and glanced at the young man who had just come in. After a quick look, he raised his eyebrows high, and then slowly gestured towards him to the seat.

"If you need it urgently today, I will write you a warrant, and you can take it to the Internal Servants Bureau to borrow a few." Eunuch He turned around, turned over a piece of white paper, and wrote on it.

"The Internal Servant Bureau is..." The female officer frowned slightly and said, "Eunuch He, next time you come back to Lefang, don't be so generous and leave some for us."

Eunuch He lowered his eyebrows and said: "Big things are coming, it won't be easy. Please be considerate."

He tore off the written paper and handed it to the female officer. He handed the booklet to the little eunuch next to him to deal with. He turned around and looked at the young man standing quietly next to him: "What is the purpose of this strong man? Did he run to the wrong place?"

Pei Ye raised his waist card, cupped his fists and said, "Xianrentaiyan inspects Pei Ye and comes to your place to inquire about some matters."

Eunuch He's eyes were very narrow, but Pei Ye still saw him roll his eyes, his eyebrows drooped a little, then he cupped his hands, turned around and said, "Why do you want to be so disrespectful? Please come in."

He gathered his clothes and climbed up the steps, muttering to himself: "Trouble comes one after another - what do you want to ask?"

Pei Ye, who had a very good ear, followed behind and smiled slightly: "Eunuch He hasn't listened to my words yet, how can he know that Ma is not troublesome?"

Why look back and say: "No trouble, I won't see the hanging man."

"..." Pei Ye's expression remained unchanged, "Xiguan Bureau is the place where the palace is responsible for the work. If you want to build in this dynasty, you have to do it from here."

"That's true." He Zi frowned at him, and the two of them walked into the house, "But there haven't been any palaces built in the palace for many years - do you want to ask about the three sheepfolds that Ye Ting built last year?"

He pulled out his chair and said, "I'll check your paperwork first."

Pei Ye put all the tokens and the like on his table, supported the case and said, "I want to ask about the Jade Grain Garden built by the Daming Palace more than 20 years ago."

Why was he stunned? He stopped even checking his hands and frowned: "Do you mean Yurong Garden or Jade Grain Garden?"

"Jade Grain Garden."

"..."

Why frown at the documents in your hands?

Pei Ye said: "In the Jade Grain Garden, a water channel was introduced. It was led from the landscape pool, surrounded the garden, and then flowed into the Taiye Pool. You should have maintenance records here. I want to find out who built it. ”

"Nonsense, when did Jingchi have a water channel?" He Su frowned and put down the document and looked up at him.

Pei Ye also frowned: "Oh? Why did my father-in-law cover up the construction of this canal?... I will note it."

He lowered his head and opened the booklet.

"Eh?!" He Wu immediately turned around to stop him, and slapped his hand on his booklet.

Pei Ye looked at him, and he looked at Pei Ye. The two frowned and stared at each other for a while, then slowly moved away their hands and rolled their narrow eyes.

"Don't talk nonsense to me. I only came to this place nine years ago. Just check." The man turned around, lit a lamp and held it, and walked into the dark inner room.

Pei Ye followed him.

After years of paper and ink atmosphere, this place is obviously different from the archives room of the government office. Documents and materials are just thrown on the shelves casually, and no one has come in to search for them for many years. Why bother to count forward by the calendar, frowning and murmuring: "Jade Grain Garden...Who knows when this garden was built?"

Pei Ye said: "You may not be looking for Jade Grain Garden. I will give you a year and dig out all the training from the first year of Suolin to the fourth year of Suolin."

"Follow your orders."

He counted for a while and picked up a large pile of dusty documents, some of which were stained with mold. He put it on the table and flipped through it, looking for it for a while. Suddenly, the candle was shining brightly, and Pei Ye put his hand on the thin old paper.

"...It really does exist." He Zi stood up and murmured, "'Xiujing Pond passes through Yuxie Garden to Taiye Liangzhang Canal. Approval document'...'Autumn of the third year of Suolin'."

Pei Ye glanced at him: "Who built this canal?"

"Three years of lock-up, my lord, who knows this?" Seeing that there really is such a canal, why should we be more serious, "Xi Guan Bureau is the yamen that works, and holding this document in your hand is a certificate and promise to start construction. With this promise, you can work, no matter which nobleman gives it... When the saint first came to the throne, everything was waiting for improvement, and everything was not so strict. "

Pei Ye pointed out: "There is a stamp here, whose stamp is it?"

"It's not 'who', it's from the Ministry of Internal Affairs." He Sui glanced at it and said, "There's no problem with that. We all follow other people's orders, and they made it very clear - 'The Jade Grain Garden needs to be diverted for irrigation and irrigation.' For aesthetic purposes, the Taiye liquid is low and far away, so it leads to the scenery pool and reaches the Taiye liquid."

Pei Ye just lowered his head to check the drawings and continued to ask: "Eunuch He is older. Do you remember who was in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for three years?"

"...Then," He Su paused and said subconsciously, "Of course it's Superintendent Yu, there's no one else."
