Twenty-two, aftermath

Twenty-two, the aftermath of the aftermath

"What?!" Eunuch Hu was shocked. He patted the table and nearly spilled the tea. The maid on the side was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. "More than two hundred people! More than two hundred people! You actually said that there are more than two hundred people."

No one has come back? Isn’t it possible that Prince Gong’s Mansion is impregnable?!”

"Going back to my father-in-law, Prince Gong's palace is no different from other palaces. It's just that there are rumors that Prince Gong is a legendary military commander who can stop hundreds of people with one. I thought it was just an exaggeration. It was more or less the flattery of those who flattered me. Unexpectedly, this rumor turned out to be true.

It's somewhat true... The subordinates' underestimation was their fault."

"More than two hundred people, how capable they are! This damn Prince Gong actually caused the loss of the Sa family's troops! Where is Prince Gong?"

"Prince Gong has bowed his head, but there is something strange."

"speak."

"After my subordinates sent people to check again, they found that the bodies of Prince Gong and others were missing. Judging from the soil renovation, they may have been buried in the yard."

"Ah? Is there a ghost at work? How could such a strange thing happen?"

Eunuch Hu is really not calm anymore. He has done a lot of bad things, so naturally he has something evil in his heart.

For a moment, everyone began to whisper, feeling very unsure. Only General Ge remained calm and composed. He asked the palace maid to serve tea, took a sip of it calmly, and finally spoke.

"Obviously, it was a fish that slipped through the net."

"What does General Ge mean?"

Eunuch Hu glanced at him sideways.

"Someone who slipped through the net saw the bodies of Prince Gong and others and buried them. This means that it must have been done by someone familiar with the palace. Then, it may be someone inside the palace. Even if it was done by other people who admired Prince Gong, then

They are also enemies who are against us, and we cannot let them go!"

"Well, what General Ge said makes sense."

"Lin Cheng, let me ask you, have you ever counted the number of people in Prince Gong's Mansion?"

"Not yet. There is no one alive in the palace, and no suspicious people have been encountered on the road. The city gates are also being strictly checked."

"What are you doing!" General Ge shouted, "If you let the thief escape, there will be endless trouble!"

"Please... please calm down, general! Give... give your subordinates another chance!"

Lin Cheng quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"General, Lin Cheng has done a good job in this operation. Just give him a chance to make up for his mistakes."

Seeing what Eunuch Hu had said, General Ge had no choice but to agree and let him lead the people in person again but confirmed the identity of the people in Prince Gong's palace.

"Is there anything strange about the city gate?"

General Ge asked Xiao Sima.

"Nothing strange." However, the keen little Sima thought for a while and added, "I heard from the guards guarding the city that a little girl who looked like a beggar came to the White Tiger Gate and caused some trouble. The subordinates didn't pay attention, but thought

After thinking about it, there is something fishy about the fact that you are approaching the palace randomly at this unusual time? Maybe my subordinate is overthinking it."

"How old is the beggar?"

"He is about eight or nine years old, thin and dirty."

"Prince Gong has a ten-year-old daughter, Eunuch Hu."

"Could it be that...Lin Cheng, why don't you go to Prince Gong's Mansion to confirm whether there is the body of Princess Qiyun!"

"yes!"

Lin Cheng and his people rushed to Prince Gong's Mansion in a hurry.

Little did Shi Wei know that the remains of her relatives would be desecrated again.
