Lin Xi took Qin Sihuang's family into his True Strength Pill space, turned into a speck of dust again, and quickly approached Kunning Palace underground.
In the map Han Chufeng gave him, he had already firmly engraved the location of Kunning Palace in his sea of consciousness.
Kunning Palace is the bedroom of the second prince's mother and the current emperor's concubine Yi, commonly known as the West Palace.
Concubine Yi's natal family was powerful and had a powerful and far-reaching influence in the empire. It is said that Qin Zheng was able to successfully seize the throne because Concubine Yi's natal family stood up at the critical moment and clearly expressed support for Qin Zheng's ascension to the throne.
The only condition is that Concubine Yi become the Queen Mother of the East Palace.
But because Qin Zheng and Concubine Yi have no heirs yet, and the eldest prince has already been born, his mother's family, although not as strong as Concubine Yi's family, is not ambiguous.
In addition to the ministers of the court and the military, there is no problem in letting Concubine Yi become the Queen Mother, but it can only be the Queen Mother of the West, and it can only be when a prince is born, otherwise it can only be Concubine Yi.
It is true that the Yi family is powerful, but the conservative forces that support the Queen Mother of the East Palace and the eldest prince are equally powerful.
In the end, both parties compromised. The Queen Mother of the East, the mother of the eldest prince, handed over the management of the harem to Concubine Yi, while she retained her identity as the crown prince's mother-in-law and the Queen Mother of the East Palace.
Qin Zheng came to power because of the support of Concubine Yi's family, so he naturally allowed the family to develop. He doted on Concubine Yi in every possible way and obeyed everything he said and did.
This created a pattern where as soon as the second prince was born, there were countless forces to support him and overwhelm the eldest prince.
At this time, Lin Xi melted onto the ground and quietly entered Kunning Palace.
Seeing that Kunning Palace occupies a vast area with continuous palaces, and the palace of Qin Sihuang's mother, one is in the sky and the other is underground.
The place where the eunuchs and maids lived was a side courtyard. Even so, it had rockeries, flowing water, vines and branches, and high roofs with colorful tiles. It was very luxurious.
There are more than a thousand rooms in it.
According to the map of Kunning Palace, Ke'er lived here, sweeping the courtyard every day and being abused by the palace maids and maids.
With excitement and expectation in her heart, Lin Xi turned on her night eyes under the ground and scanned everyone.
However, there were countless maids and maids here, but Ke'er was not found.
This made Lin Xi uneasy and anxious.
At this moment, a palace maid who looked like a female official was gesticulating and scolding some maids who were slow and slow in their work. She seemed to be a powerful person.
At this time, Lin Xi decided to capture this female official and get the exact information about Ke'er from her mouth.
After venting her anger, the female officer walked proudly towards her room.
Lin Xi followed quietly and sealed the house.
The female officer didn't react at all and was immediately suppressed by Lin Xi.
The female officer herself was only as strong as the King of Martial Arts. She could bully and beat a maidservant, which was more than enough. However, under Lin Xi, she was not even as strong as a weakling.
Lin Xi sat at the table and looked calmly at the female officer floating in front of him.
"Don't ask me who I am. I don't want to know who you are either."
"I just want to know, where is the girl who was captured from the Fourth Prince's Mansion and whom Concubine Yi regarded as her adopted daughter?"
The female officer could not move at this time, and her soul was also imprisoned.
But that doesn't stop her from speaking.
At this time, the female officer, who was already scared out of her wits, stuttered and said:
"You, you, you, don't hurt me. What did you ask? What did I say? I know almost everything about Kunning Palace, but please don't hit me. I'm afraid of pain..."
Lin Xi was speechless and stared coldly into the female officer's eyes.
"I don't want to search your soul, but I tell you, I can do it. So, if you don't want me to do you harm, it's best to tell the truth!"
Soul search?
The female officer was so frightened that she immediately peed.
"No, soul searching is too scary. My slave's false god is so weak, how can I withstand your soul search? I'm afraid that the false god will be destroyed immediately, and the body will die and the soul will disappear. I, I, I will tell the truth now. The little girl you are talking about,
She, she, she...is gone..."
boom!
Lin Xi stood up in an instant, losing control of all her strength. With a loud bang, she hit the female officer directly against the opposite wall.
The female officer screamed, her internal organs were injured, and she vomited blood.
Lin Xi grabbed him.
"Say it again? What happened to my sister?"
The female officer's breath was dying and her pupils were out of focus:
"Spare your life... Ke'er... she just disappeared. She really... disappeared..."
Lin Xi was on the verge of going berserk at this time. She shouted angrily:
"What does it mean to be missing? How could such a living person disappear? Please explain it clearly to me, but if you tell a lie, I will immediately cut you into pieces!"
The female officer was almost speechless at this time.
"I, I'm going to die... what I said is true, I'm missing..."
"Why did she disappear? Where did she disappear? When did she disappear? Why does the intelligence outside say that she is still here?"
Seeing that the female officer was about to die, Lin Xi took out a level six healing elixir from the Zhenjin Dan space, crushed it into pieces, and injected it into the female officer's body.
Female officials in the Martial King Realm can only withstand pills of this level at best.
While talking, the female officer's injuries stabilized, she slowly recovered, and she could speak normally.
Lin Xi suppressed his rampant demonic thoughts and took a few deep breaths.
"That's it..."
The female officer's injury was slightly stable, so she began to explain hurriedly.
As early as half a year ago, he had been left in this yard, sweeping dust, carrying water and chopping firewood, and doing all kinds of dirty and tiring work. When he was fetching water in the garden, he never came back.
When I saw Ke'er returning from carrying water in the kitchen, I remembered that Ke'er was missing.
This incident alarmed Concubine Yi and the second prince.
After verification, people searched the entire Kunning Palace, including the deep well, but there was no trace of Ke'er.
After this incident happened, Concubine Yi and the second prince ordered that the news of Ke'er's disappearance was strictly prohibited from leaking, otherwise the family would be confiscated, the entire clan would be confiscated, and the family would be beaten to death.
Gradually no one paid attention to this matter.
Lin Xi didn't believe it after listening to the female officer's explanation.
At this time he only asked:
"Have you ever beaten or abused Ke'er?"
The female officer was so frightened that she changed her color and trembled. After a long time, Lin Xu knew that this female officer deserved to die.
Lin Xi put his palm directly between her eyebrows, and his consciousness rushed in without hesitation, suppressing a screaming and fleeing virtual god, and directly looked through her memory.
It turned out to be true.
Lin Xi was anxious, not knowing whether Ke'er was alive or dead, her heart was furious, and her eyes were boiling with evil intent.
Just a shock of consciousness destroyed the female officer's soul.
