Chapter 468: Ni Xiner's whereabouts exposed
After Xiao Jinzi returned to the palace, she began to inquire about Ni Xiner's news. It's a pity that there was no progress in the past week, but when she was at a loss, she accidentally heard the name Nixiner.
Ni Xiner was hungry that day, so she went to the imperial kitchen to find something to eat. It happened that Xiao Jinzi was taking care of the affairs in the imperial kitchen. Originally, Ni Xiner didn't say that her name was Ni Xiner, so others didn't know her name was Ni Xiner, but it happened that Niss also came to the imperial kitchen.
Niss eats a lot and gets hungry quickly, so she often goes to the imperial kitchen to find something to eat. When the people in the imperial kitchen saw the two women dressed in bright clothes, they mistook them for the first emperor's concubines, so they did not stop them. They are slaves, and although concubines are outdated, they are not willing to offend.
Some concubines have very complicated family backgrounds, and offending them is not a good thing to eat.
When Niss saw Ni Xiner in the imperial kitchen, she called out to Ni Xiner's sister, and it was this call that Xiao Jinzi heard. At the moment, Xiao Jinzi kept calm and continued to urge the imperial chef to cook quickly, while the queen mother was waiting there.
"Cook quickly, Zajia tells you, you all use dim sum, if you don't do it well and anger the old queen mother, you can just wait and lose your head."
"Yes, we must be careful."
The head of the imperial kitchen, Nuonuo replied.
"Hey, who are they? Why haven't the Zajia met?" Xiao Jinzi looked at the two women who were looking for food and asked at the head of the imperial kitchen.
The imperial dining room has a very large space, and it mainly provides food for the emperor and the people in the harem. The two women are on the west side of the imperial kitchen, and Xiao Jinzi is next to the landlord of the imperial kitchen.
The head of the imperial dining room was an old eunuch. After years of fighting, he still complied with Eunuch Lu to get a job as the chief executive of the imperial dining room. In fact, he was a sixth-rank eunuch. Much, is a fat poor.
The head of the imperial kitchen replied respectfully: "Father-in-law, who can run around in the palace dressed like this, who else is there?"
Xiao Jinzi said: "The concubines who were favored by the late emperor, all the family knows, but there is no them."
The general manager of the imperial kitchen said: "Father-in-law is better off doing more than one thing. The fact that they are able to enter and leave the important area of the imperial kitchen shows that their identities are not simple."
Xiao Jinzi nodded and didn't ask any more questions, but her ears perked up and she paid attention.
The imperial dining room is the important part of the palace, and not everyone can enter it casually. The two women can come and go freely, which means that their identities are not simple. There are so many guards in front of the imperial dining room, but they are not decorations, and strangers will not be allowed to enter the imperial dining room.
Food safety must be guaranteed, because the identity of the person eating is no trivial matter. If something goes wrong, the entire imperial kitchen will lose their heads.
Since the two women were able to come in, their identities were obvious and very noble, so they did not dare to go up and ask more.
After a short while, the head of the imperial kitchen said in a low voice, "Father-in-law, everything is ready."
Xiao Jinzi was thinking about something just now, and was awakened by the general manager of the imperial kitchen. After finishing her mood, she went outside and brought in all the maids she had brought before, and each left with a plate of food in their hands. Before leaving, Xiao Jinzi glanced at the two girls and thought about it.
That night, Xiao Jinzi left the palace. Xiaojinzi also has another identity in the palace, that is, purchasing eunuchs. First, purchasing eunuchs is expensive, and second, it is easy to go out of the palace without causing suspicion.
"Yo, father-in-law, it's so late, where are you going?" The guards at the palace gate greeted Xiao Jinzi enthusiastically.
"Hehe, brothers have worked hard, the miscellaneous family is going to buy some things, and Eunuch Lu is still waiting to ask for it." Xiao Jinzi also stopped to chat with the palace guards.
Xiao Jinzi is the celebrity in front of Eunuch Lu, the godson of Eunuch Lu, and the guards at the palace gate naturally want to curry favor. The guards at the palace gate are in charge of the palace gate, and Xiao Jinzi wants to have a good relationship with them, so he will also talk to them, and sometimes invite them to have a drink.
"Oh, the father-in-law is working hard, but the father-in-law has to come back quickly. When the time is up, the palace gate will be closed."
"Okay, the miscellaneous family will pay attention."
"Alright then, you're good to go."
"Thank you brothers, when the miscellaneous family returns, I will bring back a few pots of good wine for the brothers."
"Father-in-law, how embarrassing that is."
"Hey, it's all your own brothers, so what are you polite?"
"Many thanks, father-in-law. If father-in-law has dispatched in the future, just let him do it."
"Hehe, the miscellaneous family will go first."
"Okay, father-in-law, walk slowly."
Just like last time, Xiao Jinzi turned several streets and saw that no one was following him before he went to the place where he hid his clothes and put on a black outfit. The whole person was integrated with the night.
Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Jinzi hurried towards the Ximen family. Knocking on the back door, answering the code, and in one go, he was taken to Ximenhe's study in a short time. At this time, Ximen He was not in the study, so he stood there and waited for a while.
Ximen He was offering incense to his son just now, and when he waited for his close friend to report, Xiao Jinzi came to the study room after he had already arrived.
When Xiao Jinzi heard footsteps, he knew that Ximen He was about to come in. When only Ximen He came in, he lifted the black hat covering himself, revealing his original appearance.
Before Xiao Jinzi could speak, Ximen He was the first to say, "Is there any news?"
Xiao Jinzi said: "Going home, Xiao Jinzi has lived up to the trust of the owner, and it has been found out that there is Ni Xiner in the palace."
Ximen He was inexplicably surprised, laughed twice, and said, "Well done, well done. By the way, how did you find out?"
Xiao Jinzi said: "My subordinates have been investigating for a week without any progress. Coincidentally, today, while I was working in the imperial kitchen, I happened to meet this girl named Ni Xiner, and her name was called by another woman. I heard it very accurately at the time, and it was impossible to make a mistake.”
Ximen He said: "Okay, it's good that she is in the palace now, other things have nothing to do with us, you can go back now, don't talk about it to others."
Xiao Jinzi responded with a sound and stepped back.
Ximen He looked at the back of Xiao Jinzi who was leaving, and praised himself for his foresight and foresight, and laying chess pieces in ambush early. The current affairs have nothing to do with him, and let the Holy See of Light take care of everything. In order to get rid of a dark saint, the Holy See of Light gave the Ximen family so many benefits, so they would never let it go.
The Holy See of Light is eager to catch the Holy Maiden of Darkness because of its own considerations. The Holy Maiden of Darkness is the second figure of the Holy See of Darkness. She is the spiritual leader of the Holy See of Darkness and has the same status as the Holy Maiden of Light in the Holy See of Light. Therefore, as long as you capture the Holy Maiden and force her to surrender That would be a big blow to the Dark Holy See.
The worst thing is to kill it, and it also gives a shock to all the forces in the mainland.
This time, the Holy See of Light attached great importance to it, and sent the saintess and the two archbishops to come over, knowing that they were not good people.
Although Ximen He got the news today, he did not rush to tell the Holy Maiden, because it was not early and it was not suitable. Early the next morning, Ximen He sent someone to invite the Holy Maiden. The saint did not rest last night, but practiced magic overnight. When Ximen He's people came, she just finished practicing.
Lisi said, "Patriarch Ximen, is there any good news?"
If Ximen He hadn't had good news to tell him, he wouldn't have invited him in early in the morning. Lisi handed this matter over to the Ximen family, and she knew that they could do it quickly and easily, because they were local snakes, unlike the Holy See of Light, which was constrained everywhere in the Purple Dragon Empire.
Ximen He smiled and stroked his beard, and said, "Live up to the expectations of the saint, my people have already found out that a woman named Ni Xiner has indeed lived in the palace recently, and she is not very old. The facial features are also very consistent.”
Liz murmured softly: "She really hid in the palace."
Ximen He said: "Saint, I have something I don't know yet."
Lisi said, "Patriarch Ximen, please speak."
Ximen He said, "How does the Holy Maiden know that she is hiding in the palace?"
Liz said: "To tell the truth I chased Ni Xiner to Walna some time ago, but then for some reason, she met the local lord Ye Shengtian, and later I learned that she was hiding in the lord's mansion. , When I asked for someone in the past, she had already come to the imperial capital. Our Holy See has already checked the entire imperial capital, so we suspected that she was hiding in the palace."
Lisi's words were half-truths. When she learned that Ni Xiner was in the lord's mansion, she was healing, and she didn't have anyone in the past, but disclosed the news to the Dark Holy See. It was just an accident, Ye Shengtian didn't pay any attention to the people of the Dark Holy See, and drove them away directly. But before she could do anything, news of Longren's critical illness came from the imperial capital, causing Ye Shengtian to go to the imperial capital.
After Ye Shengtian left, she was good at doing things. It was only when she received the Pope's order that she hurried to the imperial capital to find out the cause of Longren's death, so she left two archbishops there to supervise and came to the imperial capital in a hurry.
After the matter in the imperial capital was settled, she was about to rush to Volna, but something unexpected happened to her again, that is, Ye Shengtian's wives disappeared, which made Lisi anxious, so she thought about it. Thinking, in the end, it must have been someone sent by Ye Shengtian to take him back to the imperial capital.
