Chapter 545: Savoring the Tender Feelings over and over again
Jiang Ning felt silly for forgetting that Huang Ying, who had been in the palace for a long ti, knew many people and had access to a lot of information.
Otherwise, Jiang Ruobai wouldn’t have assigned her to serve Jiang Ning when she was about to leave the palace.
“Take a closer look at these characters,” Jiang Ning said, holding Huang Ying down and offering her tea. “Here, have so tea.”
Huang Ying was frightened and stood up, “Master, please don’t frighten like this. This only confuses , and I can’t rember anything.”
Jiang Ning realized her overexcitent and laughed, “I was too anxious. Huang Ying, take your ti to think about it, there’s no rush.”
Huang Ying picked up the letter and read it carefully. Then she asked, “Master, what’s the situation with this letter?”
“These are Denghua’s letters.”
“Denghua?” Huang Ying thought for a mont, “Oh, the maid by Concubine Jin’s side.”
“Are you familiar with her?” Jiang Ning asked.
“Not very,” Huang Ying shook her head. “I entered the palace around the sa ti she did. But we served in different places. I served the Empress Dowager while she was assigned to Splendid Palace. We only greeted each other when we occasionally t. I didn’t expect Denghua to have a secret love affair in the palace.”
Huang Ying read the remaining letters with great interest, shaking her head as she read, “This is too sentintal and nauseating.”
Jiang Ning asked, “Can palace maids and eunuchs pair up inside the palace?”
“No, if discovered, their legs will be broken.” Huang Ying quickly shook her head, “But it’s impossible to prevent it privately. It’s not like we really want to find a eunuch to be with, it’s just that life in the palace is too hard to bear.”
Jiang Ning asked softly, “Huang Ying, are you unhappy in the palace? You were originally old enough to leave the palace and get married, but you followed back in.”
Huang Ying laughed, “I used to be a slave in the Jiang Family, and I’ve gotten used to the life in the palace over these years. Actually, I had a decent life in the palace, and it wasn’t hard. However, so young palace maids who just entered the palace without anyone to care for them are bullied by other maids and eunuchs. They can’t help but want to find soone to rely on.”
“And so eunuchs with power and influence would actively seek out palace maids, right?”
“Yes, but there are not many of them.” Huang Ying laughed, “Eunuchs are not considered n and can’t do those things. It’s pointless to bother a woman and dean both of them. Master, do you suspect that Denghua has a secret relationship with a eunuch?”
“Actually, I suspect it’s an imperial guard. After all, there are very few eunuchs who can read and write such beautiful characters.”
“True, these characters are so beautiful. No wonder they’re familiar to . I must have seen them sowhere before.” Huang Ying looked at the letters for a while, “The person who wrote the letters is very cautious. He always reminded Denghua to burn the letters after reading them. Why didn’t she burn them?”
She was very puzzled.
This was equivalent to leaving evidence for others.
Jiang Ning laughed, “One glance and anyone can tell that you’ve never had a sweetheart.”
“How is that?”
“Just think about it. If a man you really like writes you many sentintal words, would you imdiately burn the letters after reading them once or carefully preserve them to cherish them from ti to ti?”
Huang Ying didn’t hesitate to answer, “Compared to the potential serious consequences, I would choose to destroy them imdiately.”
Jiang Ning smiled, “Perhaps it’s because Denghua is so infatuated that she’s being used by others.”
