The Jishuitan Horse Farm under the jurisdiction of the Clothes Washing Bureau and the Imperial Horse Prison are located at the same place. One is west of Deshengmen, the east side of Jishuitan, and the other is west side of Jishuitan. The two units are considered to be across the lake.

The reason is that both units need water, and Jishuitan, as the largest water source in the capital, was naturally favored.

As the unit with the most people in the Twenty-four prisons, there were no less than a thousand palace people at the peak of the Washing Clothes Bureau, and most of them were the "elderly" and the perpetrators replaced in the palace.

At present, there are more than 800 palace servants in the Clothes Washing Bureau, which is mainly because the bureau mainly washes clothes for the palace. This clothes are not only for the emperor's concubines, but also for eunuchs, female officials, and even ordinary people's clothes are regularly sent to be cleaned. In addition to clothes, quilts are even more important.

In the words of Wei Liangchen in his previous life, in addition to the dresses of the chairman and his wife, the security guards and cleaning work clothes were also washed here.

The total number of eunuchs and palace servants in the entire imperial city is more than 10,000, but I can imagine how much work it is.

However, compared with the end of the Zhao women from the Jinguo Washing Bureau, the palace laundryers who wash clothes for the Zhu family are much lucky. At least, they don’t have to worry about being beaten to death.

However, the eunuch in charge of the washing clothes bureau is not a good person.

Wei Liangchen could know this without investigation. As a unit that mainly labors hard, the palace people are definitely unwilling to come here, so there will naturally be "unwritten rules", which can be money or physical.

The "food" that prevails in the palace are not all about mutual affection and mutual affection, and most of them are still entangled with interests.

In such a closed environment, the palace maid who has no power and no power and no money at home will suffer from any difficulties and forced people, and can even think of it with their butts.

As far as Wei Liangchen knew, Baba was forced by the Wei Dynasty. If the second uncle had not come forward to take Baba to ask for Xili, the boy from Wei Dynasty might have succeeded.

The darkest part of the Washing Clothes Bureau is not this, its darkest part is that it can kill people at will.

Not all the older palace maids who were sent to the Washing Clothes Bureau were involved in the crime, as well as the concubines and female officials who failed to compete for favor. Once these people were confiscated to the Washing Clothes Bureau, their opponents would inevitably bribe the eunuch in charge of the Washing Clothes Bureau to humiliate the other party, and even take the other party's life.

Sometimes, it is even more terrifying for women to harm others.

The emperor will not know or care about how a person dies.

After taking the notes from the imperial concubine, Wei Liangchen rushed to the Washing Clothes Bureau. In order to shock the people from the Washing Clothes Bureau, he specially summoned Cui Yingyuan to bring a team of Dongchang men. This scared Jiang Fu, the eunuch in the hand-in-chief of the Washing Clothes Bureau, and hurriedly brought a group of eunuchs under his command, and the eunuchs in the supervisory office greeted him respectfully.

"We want to pick some people from your clothes washing bureau, and I hope Eunuch Chiang will cooperate." Wei Liangchen handed the note from the imperial concubine to Jiang Fu.

After reading it, Jiang Fu was a little surprised, but he did not dare to go against the imperial concubine's will. He hurriedly asked Wei Liangchen who he wanted to choose, how many people he wanted to do, and what he was doing.

But I never thought about that dirty place, because if the father-in-law in the Uzuki wanted women, the young and beautiful people in the palace were more suitable. Even if they were sent to the washing clothes, they were all thick-handed and thick-legged after washing their clothes for several months.

"Let's see first."

Wei Liangchen didn't say anything, walked towards the lake with his hands behind his back, and there were hundreds of palace people cleaning clothes in his sight. It would be summer, and it would be nothing, and it was even cooler, but in winter, washing clothes would be a torture life.

There are supervisors by the lake, all of them are mates. The washing machine does not have female officials. The eunuchs are responsible for major and minor matters. Seeing the seal of the handwriting, Eunuch Chiang accompanied a young father-in-law to come over, the supervisors rushed over and bowed to the orders, while the palace people squatted on the shore with expressionless faces to continue cleaning. This is the rule. If there is no supervisor, if they dare to get up and look around, they will be scolded at least, and if they are serious, they will be poked.

Each unit has its own rules. Wei Liangchen would not criticize the system of the Clothes Bureau. He could not interfere so much. When he glanced at the lake, he found that his old hair had turned white. Many palace lags slightly when they stood up and squatted down. Obviously, there was a problem with their joints. Looking at some people's fingers, they were obviously stiff. It was the cause of tendonitis due to washing clothes for many years.

The palace people wore coarse cloth clothes, either knocking them with wooden sticks, or cooperating with the two of them to knead water, carrying buckets of clean clothes away, and then buckets of clothes were sent.

Not far away is a drying yard, which is very large, covering an area of ​​one or two square miles. The yard is full of clothes lined up, and all kinds of clothes are hung, but they are all clothes of ordinary eunuchs and palace ladies.

There are several smaller venues in the east. Judging from the color of the clothes being sunken, they are considered to be high-level eunuchs and female officials, and there may be concubines.

Jiang Fu didn't know what Wei Liangchen was looking at, and didn't dare to ask, just apologizing for a smile.

"Eunuch Chiang will summon everyone." Wei Liangchen suddenly turned around and ordered, pointing to the clothes drying yard, where he meant to go.

"ah?"

Jiang Fu was stunned and did not dare to disobey, so he hurriedly asked his subordinates to summon all the palace servants in the bureau.

Wei Liangchen gave an order to Cui Yingyuan, and the other party nodded after hearing this and took someone to do it.

There were many palace servants in the Clothes Washing Bureau. At this time, it would take some time to gather them all in the Clothes Washing Bureau. Wei Liangchen was not in a hurry and brought people to the clothes drying yard and watched Jiang Fu's men pack up their clothes and quilts so that they could leave the space.

There was a sound of gongs ringing in the distance, and it was everywhere. It was supposed to be the one used by the Clothes Washing Bureau to gather people. With the sound of gongs, palace maids from all directions rushed to the clothes drying ground under the leadership of eunuchs. The palace ladies by the lake also put down their clothes, wiped the water stains on their bodies, and walked quickly under the urging of supervisors.

All Wei Liangchen heard in his ears was the urging of the eunuchs from the supervisor, and no palace servants chirping, which made him feel a little silent.

After hundreds of palace people were taken to the clothes drying ground, they didn't know anything, but they didn't dare to inquire about each other. They stood there cautiously, dared not look around or speak, for fear that the supervisors and eunuchs would see it.

"Eunuch Wei, everyone is all there, do you see?"

Jiang Fu was careful on his face, but in his heart he secretly scolded the little eunuch for taking advantage of the concubine's favor and running to his clothes washing bureau to act as a hero.

Wei Liangchen nodded slightly, stood up and looked around the field, and asked, "Are they all together?"

"It's all together, it's all together." Jiang Fu was very sure.

"oh?"

Wei Liangchen suddenly pointed to the southeast, "What's going on with those people?"
