Chapter 27: Concubine Zhang's Zhang Family The

palace investigation was handed over to the two brothers. As for Concubine Zhang, Xu Muhua didn't know how much he could count on. Anyway, he had to do more things! After

leaving the palace and returning to the mansion, he was naturally caught by the people in the mansion and questioned for a while. Xu Muhua was skilled in fooling around.

After everyone had almost left, Xu Muhua sat next to Xu's mother and whispered, "Mom, I have something to ask you."

Xu's mother looked at her strangely, "Ask!"

mysteriously.

"Mom, the palace... is the Yikun Palace. What concubines have lived there? What happened to these concubines in the end?"

The female ghost was entangled with Concubine Zhang in the Yikun Palace, looking like Concubine Zhang had taken over the nest.

It is very likely that she lived in the Yikun Palace when she was alive, or she had lived in the Yikun Palace for a long time, so she identified with the place after her death and felt that it was her territory.

Xu's mother was stunned for a moment, then she looked at her suspiciously: "Why are you asking this?"

Xu Muhua thought about it and felt that she had to talk about this matter, otherwise she might not be able to keep it secret for a few days, which would be more troublesome. If she talked about it now, maybe she could get some convenience! Xu Muhua

told her about the things in the Yikun Palace, and Xu's mother was so scared that her face changed!

Xu Muhua finally calmed her down and said, "So mother, if you know anything, you have to tell me. Otherwise, if Concubine Zhang doesn't get a satisfactory answer in a few days, she will definitely not let it go!" "

Child, you think things are too simple! If it is really so easy to solve, Concubine Zhang would have solved it long ago. Why would she force you? What can you do?"

Xu Muhua thought that she could do more than Concubine Zhang!

"Mother, maybe you think things are too complicated?"

Xu's mother: "..."

At this point, Xu's mother could only think of ways to help her.

"There are many concubines in the palace, and it's not surprising that a few of them die from time to time. But according to what you said, it seems that there has never been any concubine living in the Yikun Palace who has a miserable end."

Xu's mother frowned and recalled.

"I have to think about this carefully!"

Xu's mother stood up suddenly, her expression serious, and walked out while thinking!

Xu Muhua opened her mouth and closed it again.

Forget it, she went back to her own yard. As soon

as she returned to the yard, Xu Muhua immediately called the eldest master over and asked him to help her find out which wealthy family in the capital had sent their daughters to the palace but died in the palace.

According to the original owner's memory, the current emperor is not a man obsessed with women, and not many women are selected to enter the palace each time. Moreover, no concubine has made a mistake and was sentenced to death or implicated by her family.

If the information in her mind is correct, then the time can only be pushed forward.

Maybe she was a concubine during the reign of the previous emperor?

After hearing what she said, the master lost his temper.

It finally knew that this person wanted to use it as a farmhand!

"Why do you have so many things to do every day?"

Xu Muhua felt aggrieved, "Am I not forced to do this?"

Who doesn't want to be a salted fish!

"Wait, I will check it for you."

Xu Muhua smiled, "Okay, it's done, there will be enough beef jerky!"

The master drooled a little when he mentioned this.

Unexpectedly, Shi Liu, this silly girl, has such a good skill. The beef jerky she made... slurp!

Xu Muhua also didn't expect that Shi Liu beside her had such a skill. Not only did the master like it, but she also loved it!

It was decided that this time, let Shi Liu make more, and she would eat it as a snack in the future!

For the beef jerky made by Shi Liu, the master worked hard!

That night, he brought back the news that Xu Muhua wanted!

"According to what you said, among the wealthy families in the capital, only one fits the description."

"Who?" "

The Zhang family, the Zhang family of Concubine Zhang."

Xu Muhua was surprised, "No way, the Zhang family of Concubine Zhang?"

Then she thought about it, and her eyes widened, "Could it be that the two sisters were competing for favor, and Concubine Zhang murdered someone and became the favored concubine herself?"

The eldest master glanced at her, "You only guessed half right."

Xu Muhua looked at it in confusion, waiting for it to explain everything clearly.

The eldest master did not beat around the bush and said, "Concubine Zhang entered the palace six years ago and became a favorite concubine after entering the palace. Before she entered the palace, she had a cousin in the Zhang family with whom she had a very good relationship. The cousin was also very beautiful, but she came to live with the emperor when she was young and had a low status."

"Before Concubine Zhang entered the palace, the cousin suddenly died of illness. Of course, this was the explanation given by the Zhang family to the outside world. In fact, the cousin eloped with a scholar. Concubine Zhang had a very good relationship with her. When she heard that she eloped with a poor scholar, she kept it a secret and left without saying a word. She was also heartbroken and never mentioned this person again since then."

"Not long after this cousin eloped, Concubine Zhang entered the palace. But a stray cat near the Zhang mansion said that this cousin did not elope, but died. It saw with its own eyes that in the middle of the night when no one was around, a servant from the Zhang mansion carried a corpse out of the mansion. It was a young and beautiful girl with a gold bracelet on her hand and nail polish on her nails."

Xu Muhua was stunned, "So you mean that the corpse being carried out is that of that cousin? How can you be sure?" Hearing this,

the eldest master looked at Xu Muhua with contempt, "We animals can also distinguish people!"

Do you really think they have no IQ? Humph!

"Then what is the relationship between this cousin and the female ghost in the palace?"

They can't be the same person, right?

"This involves another secret!"

Secret?

Xu Muhua's eyes lit up, and a strong desire for gossip ignited in his eyes, "What secret? Tell me!"

"There is a story about how Concubine Zhang first entered the palace. It is said that it was during the autumn hunting several years ago, and the Zhang family also followed the emperor to the palace hunting ground. The emperor suddenly had a whim and left his guards behind to go hunting alone. As expected, something went wrong, and she was saved by a woman wearing a veil."

"Later, we found out that the woman was the daughter of the Zhang family! This is also the reason why Concubine Zhang was so favored after entering the palace."

Xu Muhua thought of something, and his expression became a little strange: "You mean that the person who saved the emperor was actually Concubine Zhang's cousin. The Zhang family wanted to take away the credit, so they killed the cousin and let Concubine Zhang take her place?"

"That's about it!"

Xu Muhua recalled that Concubine Zhang was domineering and arrogant, but it was not necessarily true that she had never hurt anyone. But when she talked about the female ghost, there was no trace of guilt on her face or in her eyes. She only had normal emotions that normal people would have when encountering such a thing, such as worry, fear, and terror.
