Chapter 545: Savoring the Tender Feelings over and over again


    Jiang Ning felt silly for forgetting that Huang Ying, who had been in the pce for a long time, knew many people and had ess to a lot of information.


    Otherwise, Jiang Ruobai wouldn’t have assigned her to serve Jiang Ning when she was about to leave the pce.


    “Take a closer look at these characters,” Jiang Ning said, holding Huang Ying down and offering her tea. “Here, have some tea.”


    Huang Ying was frightened and stood up, “Master, please don’t frighten me like this. This only confuses me, and I can’t remember anything.”


    Jiang Ning realized her overexcitement andughed, “I was too anxious. Huang Ying, take your time 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 moment, “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 pce around the same time she did. But we served in different ces. I served the Empress Dowager while she was assigned to Splendid Pce. We only greeted each other when we asionally met. I didn’t expect Denghua to have a secret love affair in the pce.”<div>


    Huang Ying read the remaining letters with great interest, shaking her head as she read, “This is too sentimental and nauseating.”


    Jiang Ning asked, “Can pce maids and eunuchs pair up inside the pce?”


    “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 pce is too hard to bear.”


    Jiang Ning asked softly, “Huang Ying, are you unhappy in the pce? You were originally old enough to leave the pce and get married, but you followed me back in.”


    Huang Yingughed, “I used to be a ve in the Jiang Family, and I’ve gotten used to the life in the pce over these years. Actually, I had a decent life in the pce, and it wasn’t hard. However, some young pce maids who just entered the pce without anyone to care for them are bullied by other maids and eunuchs. They can’t help but want to find someone to rely on.”


    “And some eunuchs with power and influence would actively seek out pce maids, right?”


    “Yes, but there are not many of them.” Huang Yingughed, “Eunuchs are not considered men and can’t do those things. It’s pointless to bother a woman and demean both of them. Master, do you suspect that Denghua has a secret rtionship 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 me. I must have seen them somewhere 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 Ningughed, “One nce 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 sentimental words, would you immediately burn the letters after reading them once or carefully preserve them to cherish them from time to time?”


    Huang Ying didn’t hesitate to answer, “Compared to the potential serious consequences, I would choose to destroy them immediately.”


    Jiang Ning smiled, “Perhaps it’s because Denghua is so infatuated that she’s being used by others.”
