"Investigate Chang Ning, find out who he has been associating with all these years, who his friends are, what they usually do, what the situation is like in his backyard, and what his social interactions are like."
"Yes, this servant will go and investigate immediately. This servant will take his leave."
Yinzhen originally thought the matter was over, but now it seems that things are far from over.
Although it seems that the person behind the scenes is someone else, and Yinzhen also wants to find out who it is, judging from the other party's methods, unless forced to or absolutely certain, they will not appear in front of him.
Yinzhen instructed someone to investigate, and his life could return to normal.
Yunrong looked at Yinzhen, then at the child: "Everything has been taken care of."
Yinzhen: "The good intentions have come to an end for now, but I think there is someone else behind it all. Prince Gong doesn't have that much ability."
Yunrong saw that the whole family was all together and there was no trace of the person behind the scenes for the time being, but at least this incident was over.
"Take your time investigating, they can't escape it."
Yinzhen nodded and said, "You're right, they can't escape it."
Yinzhen then spoke with Yunrong about matters concerning the court, and Yunrong listened attentively.
In fact, Yunrong rarely concerned herself with matters of the court, but Yinzhen would still talk to her about them. He didn't mean anything by it; he just felt that as husband and wife, they must understand each other. Even if they had different fields of expertise, the more they talked and the more common they had, the better their relationship would become.
After discussing important matters, let's move on to family matters.
Yinzhen asked Yunrong, "Do you have any ideas about the child's name?"
Yunrong: "I really haven't had time to think about it."
This pregnancy was full of twists and turns. At first, she suffered from morning sickness and couldn't eat. Just when she was able to eat again, Yinzhen had to go on a military campaign. She was worried about him, so she didn't have the energy to think about the child's name. She thought she would wait for Yinzhen to come back and then they would discuss it together.
"How about this, I'll choose the formal name, and you can choose the nickname."
Yunrong nodded: "Yes, that works too."
Finally, the child's nickname was decided as An'an, hoping that the child could be safe and sound, after all, he had a hard time in the womb. As for his formal name, it was Tu Ning.
Before Yunrong had even finished her postpartum confinement, Yinzhen had already investigated Changning's background and found out the results. After reading them, Yinzhen frowned deeply.
Yinzhen could see from the result that Changning had indeed been misled and manipulated. Although his intentions were not pure, Changning would not have dared to do it without someone encouraging him.
As for who instigated him, when Yinzhen saw the investigation results, they all pointed to one person: a staff member who came to Changning Prefecture three years ago.
This advisor helped Chang Ning find many useful masters, and one of the reasons why Yinzhen treated Chang Ning well was because of his abilities.
This advisor, Anu, helped Changning a great deal, offering suggestions such as using Changning to contact court officials. However, the trail ended with Anu, and Anu disappeared completely after Changning was arrested.
But when they investigated his background, they found that all his family members had been killed without exception.
Furthermore, by investigating Anu's neighbors, it was discovered that Anu had been somewhat slow-witted since childhood, and because his family had many sons, his family did not treat him well, and even bullied him, making him do dirty and tiring work. Once, Anu disappeared for three days, and when he came back, he said that he had saved a benefactor and that he was going to work for the benefactor. He even became more proper and generous, and his mind began to become more active.
Looking at the investigation results, Yinzhen was very suspicious of Anu. A person's personality might change drastically after being stimulated, but it was highly unlikely that someone would suddenly become lively from being dull.
Yinzhen had some doubts in his mind. Perhaps this Anu was a reincarnated person or a time traveler, otherwise there was no way to explain it.
Place it in another location.
"This servant has failed my master and begs for punishment."
"This is not your fault. Since he was able to escape this calamity, he is lucky. You can no longer use the name Anu. I will give you a new identity. From today onwards, you are Tong Cheng, the youngest son of the head steward of Tong Guowei's mansion."
"Yes, this servant understands."
The kneeling "Anu" peeled off a piece of human skin mask from his face, then picked up another piece of human skin mask from the table and fiddled with it on his face. After he finished, he knelt on the ground and said, "This servant Tong Cheng thanks Master for his grace."
"Get up. This is an interesting place. You should serve Lord Tong well. Now go down."
"This servant understands. This servant takes his leave."
Anu transformed into Tong Cheng and then appeared at the Tong residence.
Yinzhen found Anu suspicious, so he sent people to investigate. To investigate Anu, Yinzhen specially brought several people from Changning Prefecture who had spent a lot of time with him and began training them. The purpose was to let them redeem themselves by doing good deeds. If they found Anu, their crimes could be mitigated.
Yunrong's postpartum confinement period is finally over, and An'an's third-day celebration was not a big affair, so Yinzhen plans to hold a grand celebration for this full moon celebration and has invited many people to come.
An An had been speaking for a month, but his birthplace was eventually leaked. They said they were trying to keep it a secret, but with so many people talking, how could they possibly keep all the information out?
Fortunately, they all knew that since the Emperor was unwilling to mention it, then it could not be mentioned. No one dared to discuss it openly. However, everyone kept it to themselves and were very interested in the first prince of the Qing Dynasty to be born on the Emperor's bed.
As the Empress, Yunrong naturally had to entertain the women of the court officials' harems. Before she gave birth, many people had privately discussed that the Empress was a woman who brought misfortune to her husbands and children and was not a blessed person. Now, it seems that they still had to greet Yunrong with smiles and flatter her incessantly, hoping to gain her favor.
