Yun Shang just thought that it would be good to try her luck, which was better than doing nothing, but she didn't expect that it was a blind cat that met a dead mouse, and it happened to be the right one.
Qian Yin's voice also contained a bit of excitement, "That Qi'er was indeed originally from the Jing family. She was serving Mr. Jing before, but she was often taken out as her personal maid, and everyone looked familiar to her.
Some young masters usually go out with their servants. Qi'er has only been waiting in the inner courtyard and has never left the house, so no one has seen her. I'm afraid it was Jing Wenxi's idea, because she never thought about it.
He was exposed, so he simply went to find the maid in the mansion."
"Really?" Yun Shang listened to Qian Yin's words and shook his head lightly, "Jing Wenxi is a very delicate person. How could he make such a mistake and leave others with no clue? And Qier appeared in Qinmeng.
The time with her is not short, it has been more than two months. At that time, Jing Wenxi probably did not know that she could not become the queen, so how could she have arranged for Qier to wait by Qin Meng's side so early, and
I thought it was Jing Wenxi who framed my mother and concubine before, but after thinking about it carefully, I realized that such a clumsy method was probably not Jing Wenxi's."
Listening to what Yun Shang said, Qian Yin also felt that this matter was a bit strange, but couldn't think of any other reason, "Then if it's not Jing Wenxi according to what the princess said, then who is it?"
Yun Shang pondered for a moment and then said calmly, "Whose maid is Qier?"
"Mr. Jing's." Qian Yin didn't understand why Yun Shang asked like this, but she answered honestly.
Yun Shang smiled and said, "Since it belongs to Mr. Jing, why can't it be ordered by Mr. Jing? Have someone go to the palace to find out whether Mr. Jing has entered the palace in recent months and whether he has met Qin Meng."
Qianyin suddenly understood, covering her mouth as if she felt a little unbelievable, "The princess is saying..."
Seeing that Yun Shang was smiling and not answering, he quickly said, "I will let someone go check it out."
Since there are many people placed by Yun Shang in the palace, it is not complicated to investigate the matter. However, now that there are eyes outside the palace, the difficulty is how to bring the news into the palace and how to bring it back. Yun Shang thought about it.
Thinking about it, he asked the housekeeper to prepare a carriage. He only said that he suddenly fell ill a few days ago. He was afraid that Concubine Jin would be worried when he received the news. He went into the palace to pay tribute to Concubine Jin and asked Qianyin to dress her up carefully.
She even put on makeup for the first time, and then she was helped by Qian Yin to get on the carriage and go to the palace.
But because her body was so weak, she almost fainted while talking to Concubine Jin in the palace. Concubine Jin was anxious and angry, so she left Yun Shang in the palace for the night, and everyone in the palace inquired.
When they arrived, Yun Shang stayed in the Jinxiu Palace without leaving the house, and Concubine Jin was watching over her. But the servants in the Jinxiu Palace were confused. They went to the imperial hospital to find the imperial doctor, brought water to prepare hot water, and
After brewing the medicine, almost all the concubines in the palace came to visit. Even Emperor Ning made a special trip to the Splendid Palace to sit for a while during dinner.
In the afternoon of the second day, Yun Shang said that she was feeling better and wanted to go back to the palace. Concubine Jin wanted to stop her, but Yun Shang persuaded Concubine Jin with a few words, "Shang'er is already married. Lai is here."
It's not good to stay in the palace after all. Now there's no one in the palace who can make the decision, and Chang'er doesn't feel at ease."
Concubine Jin had no choice but to ask Emperor Ning to send an imperial physician to attend the palace. Yun Shang could not shirk the request, so she had to take the imperial physician back to the palace.
"Princess, I have already heard that Mr. Jing has been to the palace several times recently. After the emperor and the imperial concubine returned from Lai Fengxing Palace, they held a banquet for the courtiers, and Mr. Jing also attended. Later, the little prince's hundred-day banquet,
There were small New Year banquets, New Year's Eve banquets, and year-end banquets, and Mr. Jing went every time. But Meng Jieyu was only present at the New Year's Eve banquet for the first time. She heard that Mr. Jing played a song when the courtiers were having a banquet for the first time.
Qin, the emperor also praised it repeatedly." Qianyin said softly as she helped loosen the heavy bun on Yun Shang's head.
"Oh? What else are you asking about? I have specifically asked you to inquire carefully before and don't miss any details." Yun Shang looked at the pale and stunning woman in the mirror and said softly.
Qianyin picked up the comb to comb Yun Shang's hair and said softly, "I remember the princess's instructions. During the first banquet, Meng Jieyu was too drunk and left the party in the middle. Later, Mr. Jing left for a while.
The time was about half an hour. Later, every time when Mr. Jing entered the palace, if Meng Jieyu was not present, Meng Jieyu would go to the imperial garden alone to stroll around. If Meng Jieyu was present, she would leave early.
Mr. Jing would leave for a while every time. Qi'er appeared next to Meng Jieyu during that time. She was a palace maid who entered the palace normally. It happened that the person waiting beside Meng Jieyu was punished for stealing the master's things.
Meng Jieyu was short of people around her, so several new palace people came in, and Qier was one of them. The servant heard that someone in the palace seemed to have seen Meng Jieyu and Mr. Jing being very close, but the palace people didn't see it.
If you don’t understand clearly, you don’t dare to speak nonsense.”
Yun Shang smiled coldly, "I heard that my father and Jing Wenxi got closer during that period, not long after Prime Minister Jing took office. I heard that Jing Wenxi and her brother had always had a good relationship, and Prime Minister Jing wanted to use his daughter to solidify his relationship.
However, her brother was unwilling to go against his father's wishes, so he thought of finding someone to help his sister in the palace. However, the concubines he could meet at the palace banquet were all above the concubine rank. Now,
The harem was withered and there were few concubines. After looking around, I only felt that Qinmeng was more suitable. One was a handsome gentleman, and the other was a concubine who had not been favored for a long time. If she had the intention of hooking up, it would be a disaster.
, it ignited in just one moment.”
Qianyin had never thought of this. Hearing this, she was speechless for a long time and then said, "Princess, did you say that Meng Jieyu has an affair with Mr. Na Jing?"
Yun Shang smiled slightly, "Isn't this an obvious thing? What do you think of Qin Meng's temperament?"
"He's outgoing, and he's not low-spirited, but he's still a wallflower." Qianyin curled her lips.
Yun Shang smiled and said, "Qin Meng has been in the palace for a long time. You also know that she is a wallflower. In fact, she is just weighing what is best for herself. Such a person will not care about the things around her.
They are very attentive and will never easily trust a palace maid who has been with her for less than two months. She had treated Qier sincerely before, so the only possibility was to send Qier to her
She is surrounded by people she trusts very much. Logically speaking, Qin Meng has never left the palace, and Mr. Jing rarely enters the palace. How can they get to know each other? But you said that someone in the palace saw them being very close."
Qianyin was stunned for a moment, then snorted, "Way-hearted."
"It can't be said that she is a frivolous person. Qinmeng has never been favored. Before that, she became my father's wife just because of my plan. Later, when I thought she was still useful, I helped Gu Chong. Later, she betrayed me.
, I was too lazy to pay attention to it, because my father rarely favored her, and women in the deep palace are the most lonely." Yun Shang smiled and watched Qian Yin tie her hair into a simple bun.
"Then what is the name of Mr. Jing's family?"
Qianyin quickly responded, "Jing Wenlan."
Yun Shang nodded, "It's a good name. I just heard that Jing Wenlan has never been engaged in business, but likes to do business. As a businessman, I'm afraid he is very good at coaxing people. Qin Meng is also a deep palace woman who has never experienced love.
, there is no comparison. I think it was because Jing Wenlan was unhappy when he saw that his sister had lost her position, but businessmen are not good at scheming, so their methods were a little clumsy."
"Then who killed Qinmeng? Why did they take the body away again?" Qianyin asked in a low voice, feeling a little strange.
Yun Shang pondered for a moment and then said, "This is something I have never figured out before, but after knowing the relationship between Qin Meng and Jing Wenlan, I roughly guessed it. I think it's just because of Qin Meng
Maybe it’s because of pregnancy.”
Qianyin thought about it carefully and nodded, "When the princess said this, the slave girl felt that this must be the case. Qinmeng was locked up, but she was pregnant. Mr. Jing was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he hurriedly
The murder was silenced, but the princess wanted to check the body, but was afraid that the princess would discover something, so she took the body away."
Yun Shang sighed. She originally thought that Qin Meng's incident, the Burning Heavenly Prison, and Prince Jing's incident were related. After checking eagerly for a long time, she found that it had nothing to do with it. She felt a little disappointed in her heart, so she
He lowered his eyes and looked at his pure hands with a wistful expression.
Seeing this, Qianyin stopped saying anything and asked softly, "Princess, are you going to withdraw the secret guards who are watching Jing Mansion?"
Yun Shang shook his head, "Let's keep it for now."
After saying that, he stood up, changed into regular clothes, picked up the book and flipped through it casually, but he didn't read a single word. He only sorted out the incident in Tianlao and the disappearance of Prince Jing in detail.
According to Liu Yinfeng, what happened in Tianlao was probably done by the Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom and Li Jingyan, but he didn’t know where they would stay now that they had entered the imperial city. With a slight movement in his heart, he had an idea.
We are almost certain that they are the ones who did it, so why not just look for them. Maybe if we find them, we can make new discoveries.
In the evening, there was finally some news about the hidden stakes in the imperial city these past two days.
"That day, the prince had a dispute with Nacang Juekang Ning in Yumanlou. Yumanlou is our property, but the shopkeeper happened to be out discussing business that day and was not in the store. Because the prince was renting a private room, he and Na Cangjue Kangning were not in the shop.
The place where Cang Jue Qingsu got into a dispute was also at the door of the private room on the second floor, so the guests downstairs only heard the sound and did not see what was going on. It was not until later when Cang Jue Kangning came downstairs that everyone saw it.
However, from beginning to end, no one actually saw Prince Jing in person. It was only because the voice was indeed that of Prince Jing, someone claimed to be the prince, and they also saw Cang Jue Kangning, so some people said that they saw the two of them having sex with their own eyes.
