Chapter 92 The truth has not yet been found

During these days, Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju have been busy investigating what happened in the past few days. Now that they have sorted out most of the things, they all came to Concubine Chen's palace.

Concubine Chen Guifei knew that the four of them had come together for important matters, so she put aside all other matters and sat together in the inner room.

"Jinxin Jinyu, you go and guard outside." Knowing that the matter was of great importance, Concubine Chen Guifei did not dare to take it lightly.

Mei Ying then spoke: "We have investigated everything that happened in the past few days, and now it is time to report the results to Her Majesty."

Concubine Chen Gui didn't say anything, but Lu Xingwan couldn't help it.

[So this is the scene of the secret guards in the storybook. I used to think that Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum were all very easy to get along with, but now these four people are sitting here in a serious manner, and there is a murderous intention. ]

[So cool! ]

[When I return, I will also train a few secret guards who can be called upon at any time and have strong martial arts skills.]

Mei Ying naturally couldn't hear Lu Xingwan's mumbling, so she just said: "Lan Ying went to check on the Crown Prince."

When Mei Ying finished speaking, Lan Ying continued, "The palace maiden named Yulan died a few days after being taken away by the Dragon Shadow Guards."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Chen frowned, but did not interrupt Lan Ying.

"She did not die at the hands of the Dragon Shadow Guards. Instead, she was poisoned long ago and was only waiting to die in two days."

[Is he so powerful? Is he so calculating? It seems that the palace is very dangerous now! ]

[But in the story, this Yulan clearly became the prince's concubine, and then poisoned the prince to death day by day, so how come she was poisoned now? ]

[And the poison was given in advance. That person wanted Yulan to die from the beginning. ]

"I have also asked Eunuch Zhongping. The person who went to Xingyang Palace to look for him that day was indeed someone he knew well before, Eunuch Lin from Concubine Lan's Palace. Zhongping also went to Yu Garden in a hurry because he saw that Eunuch Lin was from Concubine Lan's Palace."

"Afterwards, I took the portrait of Eunuch Lin to find Yulan, and she said that it was this man who gave her the things."

Lan Ying's tone dropped when she said this: "It's just that Eunuch Lin..."

"Dead?" When Concubine Chen Gui saw her hesitating, she knew this would be the outcome.

Lan Ying shook her head and said, "No, Eunuch Lin is nowhere to be found, and he has not left the palace, but he just disappeared from the palace out of thin air. I have also checked all the hidden places in the harem, and there is no trace of blood."

After hearing this, Concubine Chen Guifei's brows furrowed even deeper, and she didn't know what to do next.

[Is there something so weird in this palace? How could a perfectly good person just disappear out of nowhere?]

[Could it be that there is someone in this palace who knows magic? If I still have some spiritual power, I can help mother investigate. ]

Seeing that Concubine Chen did not speak, Lan Ying continued, "My subordinates will continue to track this person, please rest assured, young lady."

Zhu Ying at the side took over the conversation and continued: "I have been investigating the affairs of the Third Prince these days."

"Miss, you are right. The new eunuch next to the Third Prince is the one that Prime Minister Cui left for him. This person is the son of Ning Xu, Prime Minister Cui's former military advisor."

"Ningxu's son?" This time, Concubine Chen Gui couldn't help herself. Someone would actually send his own son to be a eunuch for the sake of his master. She was a little bit unconvinced in her heart, "But has Zhengzhong been purified?"

"Yeah." Zhuying nodded in reply.

Now it was Lu Xingwan's turn to be shocked.

[What on earth did Prime Minister Cui do to Ning Xu? Could it be that he was bewitched by a snake? I really can't believe that someone would go to such lengths for his master.]

[Awesome, awesome, Prime Minister Cui is awesome. I have to say, his daughter is a fool, his grandson is also a fool, and she is the only smart one in their family.]

[No matter how powerful you are, what's the point? You are already dead now.]

Zhu Ying saw that Concubine Chen Gui did not speak, so she asked again, "But do we want to get rid of Zheng Zhong?"

Concubine Chen shook her head: "Don't make a fuss. Zhengzhong is not a big shot."

"Miss, you are right. I have checked Zhengzhong's contacts in recent days. It seems that Zhengzhong has close contacts with a person named 'Xintian'. It is this person who is behind the Third Prince's plot."

"It's just that they usually communicate through letters. I'm afraid the Third Prince and Zhengzhong have never seen this person's true face."

"This man's Qinggong is extremely high. Even Mei Ying may not be able to catch up with him."

Concubine Chen nodded. This way, she had revealed her true colors, and she would not have to worry about catching him in the future. "Continue to keep an eye on the Third Prince."

Seeing Zhuying finished speaking, Meiying spoke up: "Juying is investigating the poisoning of Concubine Lan, but still has no clue."

"Just as Miss expected, Zhao Saiyuan really came to investigate the murder of Concubine Fang. I revealed all the evidence I had to Zhao Saiyuan. He was smart and quickly found out that it was Concubine Shu."

Concubine Chen nodded after hearing this: "She has no military skills, but she has been able to hold such a high position beside my father. Her ability cannot be underestimated."

"Miss, you are right. The one who executed Yuxiu yesterday was not someone close to Concubine De, but someone from Zhao Saiyuan."

"Zhao Saiyuan's people?" Concubine Chen Gui was naturally confused.

"Yuxiu did serve beside Concubine De in the past. Your Majesty will not find anything unusual about this."

"However, Yuxiu entered the palace at the same time as Lady Fang. She was planted in the palace by Zhao Saiyuan. Yuxiu grew up with Lady Fang, so their friendship is naturally deep."

"After Zhao Saiyuan found out that the murderer was Concubine Shu, he immediately contacted Yuxiu. However, he didn't expect that it was such a coincidence that Yuxiu was serving Concubine Shu in the palace, which led to what happened yesterday."

"As for Yuxiu being chosen as the young lady, besides because Shupin was jealous of the Majesty, she also felt that it was the Majesty who failed to take good care of Concubine Fang, which led to Concubine Fang's fate."

Seeing Concubine Chen frowning, Mei Ying explained further.

"Don't worry, young lady. His Majesty doesn't take Yuxiu seriously. The punishment of the Ministry of Punishment will not reveal anything. I used some special means to make her tell the truth. Now in His Majesty's eyes, Yuxiu is still just a loyal servant of Concubine De."

Concubine Chen nodded and said, "You handled it very well. Zhao Saiyuan is someone close to father. If His Majesty knew about it... it would be bad for father anyway."

Lu Xingwan, who was standing by, received so much information in less than half an hour that he was stunned for a moment.

[This Zhao Saiyuan is really amazing. He actually thought of sending another person into the palace to assist his daughter when she entered the palace, but he did not show it. He is really scheming. ]

[No wonder he was able to contact Prime Minister Cui and slander Marquis Dingguo. I thought he was just greedy.]

[Now it seems that this person is not greedy, but a very cunning and scheming person. Grandfather must be careful.]
