When Lu Bai heard what Gu Qinghuan said, he knew that he had been excited for nothing.
After implementing this step by step, there is still a lot to do.
At least how Eunuch Bai entered the palace without purification and how he got Liu Cuilian pregnant was a major difficulty.
This happened more than 20 years ago, and many people have forgotten it. If you want to find out the truth, you have to bury your head in a pile of old stories.
The only good thing is that in a place like the palace, every move is recorded. As long as Lu Bai sorts it out slowly, he can always find Bai Henian's crimes.
However, Lu Bai still miscalculated.
The enemy he faces is far smarter than he imagined.
When Lu Qinghuan saw the Queen Mother coming back, she immediately sent someone to Jinyiwei to invite Lu Bai.
When Lu Bai returned to the study, he saw Gu Qinghuan standing by the window, looking at the Qinhuai River, eyebrows deep in thought, and tapping his fingers on the window sill.
"What was found?" Lu Bai asked her.
Gu Qinghuan slowly turned around and said, "This man is far smarter than we thought."
"oh?"
Lu Bai listened to Gu Qinghuan's next answer.
Gu Qinghuan told Lu Bai that she had already asked the Queen Mother about the emperor's birth date. If calculated forward, his birth date would be in the month recorded in the daily note in Lu Bai's hand.
"What!" Lu Bai was surprised.
If this is true, it proves that Liu Cuilian was pregnant on the day recorded in the daily notes, and she was still the son of the Supreme Emperor, and not a child conceived one month before the Supreme Emperor's death.
"I, my inferences are all wrong?" Lu Bai frowned.
If he was wrong about the emperor not being the Supreme Emperor, then his inferences going forward were also wrong, and then Liu Cuilian's death would be an unsolved mystery again.
"Don't rush to overturn your guess."
Gu Qinghuan paced back and forth in the room, "There are still many doubts about this matter."
Under the leadership of the Queen Mother, Gu Qinghuan went to the inner treasury where the Daily Notes were collected this morning and found the original of the Daily Notes. "That Daily Notes is not much different from what is recorded in the Daily Notes in your hand. There is only one doubt -"
"What's the doubt?" Lu Bai couldn't wait.
This almost determines whether he should speculate on miscarriage or seek rescue.
"On the daily notes on the transcripts collected in the inner library, it says Liu Cuilian, and his name is Pianxi Lian." This is what Gu Qinghuan has been meditating on. "This may be the reason why there are transcripts and original notes on the daily notes."
The only thing that Gu Qinghuan was undecided about was that she didn't know whether the transcript of the daily note was due to the wrong name, or whether the name was changed intentionally.
"Liu Cuilian?!"
Lu Bai was surprised, "Is this the name of the emperor's biological mother?"
Gu Qinghuan nodded.
She asked the Queen Mother, and she was not sure. After all, Liu Cuilian was an insignificant person before she was pregnant with the prince, and most of these people from the countryside were illiterate. To them, there was almost no difference between Liu Cuilian and Liu Cuilian. Most of the people who registered could not
to confirm which word it is.
"The Queen Mother had someone check it out before confirming that Liu Cuilian is the name of the Emperor's biological mother."
Lu Bai was convinced.
After searching for a long time, the name he found turned out to be wrong.
"Perhaps the eunuch wrote Liu Cuilian when he recorded it. Later, because she was favored by the Supreme Emperor and her name had to be strict, she changed it back to Liu Cuilian, so the daily notes had to make a copy?" Lu Bai guessed.
Then he and Gu Qinghuan looked at each other and dismissed this possibility.
No matter Liu Cuilian or Liu Cuilian, now that the emperor's biological mother is dead, she still killed her intentionally. Therefore, they cannot let go of any doubt. They must use every doubt as a wedge to solve the case and smash it hard, so as to break out some
Come to fame.
Then, Gu Qinghuan told Lu Bai some unfortunate news, "Baihexiang entered the palace after Liu Cuilian became pregnant."
Lu Bai was stunned.
This was equivalent to cutting off the most important part of his speculation, almost cutting Lu Bai's argument into pieces.
Lu Bai sat slumped on the chair.
Lu Qinghuan walked up behind him, put his head against his chest, and slowly massaged his temples, "It's not scary to go in the wrong direction, but giving up is scary. This is what you taught me. You were not so impatient before.
Why are you so impatient when it comes to these cases?"
Lu Bai smiled bitterly.
He also knew that he was impatient.
From the moment he caught Tang Zhu, he fell into a state of impatience. On the one hand, when investigating the Ooty Demon case, the presence of the mastermind behind the scenes gave Lu Bai a headache. On the other hand, Lu Bai was too eager to solve the case.
Only by solving this case can he enter the ascension realm.
"I was too anxious." Lu Bai nodded.
If he were to step into the Ascension Realm now, I am afraid that he would be unprecedented and unprecedented, and he would be able to compete for the youngest immortal. Even the Sword Immortal was enlightened by the Martial God through the back door and only ascended after he was forty or fifty years old.
Because of this, Lu Bai's steps in handling the case got into trouble, and this time it got even more involved.
"By the way, you just said that Baihexiang entered the palace after Liu Cuilian became pregnant?" Lu Bai closed his eyes and rested.
"good."
Lu Bai asked whatever he thought of, "So, Baihexiang entered the palace after he became an adult?"
Lu Qinghuan told Lu Bai that it was not uncommon for adults to enter the palace. After many people could not survive, if they had the opportunity, they would choose to leave the palace to serve the nobles. Although the eggs below were gone, at least they would not die of hunger.
"Ho!"
Lu Bai admired such people, who were not only cruel to others, but also cruel to themselves.
"Whose path did he follow?"
Lu Bai asked one more question, "Wu Gen, an old eunuch, has been dead for many years."
"It's hard to check."
Lu Bai shook his head, and suddenly his heart moved, "Baihe Township, Madam He, Baihe Township and Madam He!"
He suddenly sat up straight and turned around to look at Lu Qinghuan.
"Baihe Township and Mrs. He?" Gu Qinghuan muttered, thoughtfully, "Are you still doubting Baihe Township?"
Lu Bai said firmly, "It's not suspicion, it's him."
He told Gu Qinghuan the information he found out about Madam He, "Mrs. He is good at female nemesis, and the crane clothes she wears are the best female nemesis, which is still fresh in the memory of Tang Zhu and the people in the pig-killing business. Do you remember what I said,
Was the phoenix temporarily embroidered on the phoenix garment Liu Cuilian was wearing when she died?"
Gu Qinghuan remembered.
She gradually became more and more discerning, "Are you starting from the female celebrities?"
This is a clue.
But at most it only makes people doubt Bai Hexiang a little more, and Lu Bai still lacks direct evidence.
"Do you remember Gu Jin's mysterious death when we were investigating Gu Jin's case?" Lu Bai asked thoughtfully, "Before their leader Sang Jin was found, Gu Jin surrendered in the prison of Jinyiwei Zhao Prison.
People were killed.”
"You mean, Baihexiang is a fellow disciple of Gu Jin. He turned into a palace maid and entered the palace. After messing up the palace, he used another trick to make the Supreme Emperor take advantage of him. He left the palace to purify himself and then entered the palace. Thus,
Stay by the emperor's side and take care of him?" Lu Qinghuan felt that this was too complicated, and it was confusing even if she repeated it.
Lu Bai stood up and said, "To find out the truth now, we have to start by investigating the palace maids, whether Liu Cuilian and Liu Cuilian are the same person, and whether Bai Hexiang has ever pretended to be a palace maid in and out of the palace."
