After finishing the military training, Jiang Yi and others returned to the Jingnan Palace and summoned his parents and Jiang Ling.
Then he repeated Zhou Jing'an's words to them word for word.
The two men sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion. They disguised themselves as purchasing servants and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion two days in advance to familiarize themselves with the environment.
Aruo has martial arts skills, but she is not Qiu Yanshuang's maid since childhood. Instead, she suddenly came to the Qiu family ten days ago.
What is most puzzling is why Qiu Yanshuang wanted to harm Jiang Ling.
Although everyone has speculations, there is no direct evidence pointing to Shen Qingru.
Because there is no connection between the Shen family and the Qiu family, Shen Qingru and Qiu Yanshuang, and there is almost no intersection between the two families.
So Zhou Jing'an changed the direction of his search and found a clue.
Qiu Yanshuang's father, Qiu Congshan, was originally an official in Jizhou. He came to the capital only last year and worked as a fifth-rank doctor in the Ministry of Rites.
This official position is not high-ranking, but it is a little special.
That is, the Ministry of Guests and Guests was responsible for receiving and granting gifts to ethnic minorities and foreign guests and envoys, and issuing orders to confer titles and official positions on various vassal states.
The doctor Qiu Congshan was one of the officials in charge of the reception of the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Because the previous dynasty colluded with Nanzhao to accelerate the demise of Dashun, Nanzhao was somewhat special in everyone's mind, and everyone was intentionally or unintentionally on guard against it.
And there was another person who had appeared before, that was Cheng Zhihuai, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
Qiu Congshan came to the capital to serve as an official, and it was Cheng Zhihuai who recommended him.
It seemed like everything was connected.
But what is the relationship between Shen Qingru and Cheng Zhihuai?
One was the daughter of a minister, and the other was a court official.
The two of them don't even see each other normally, so it seems difficult to connect them together.
But other than that, there are no other doubts.
"Oh yes, there's one more thing." Jiang Yi added, "The drug we used that day was a love drug. It can make people dizzy and hallucinate, making it difficult for them to control their emotions and generate passionate passion."
He whispered, "And this aphrodisiac is produced in Nanzhao."
It’s Nanzhao again.
Qiu Yanshuang was actually able to get Nanzhao's aphrodisiac, which is not something that can be bought casually.
All of this seems to point to the Qiu family being suspected of colluding with Nanzhao.
But Jiang Ling didn't believe that this matter had nothing to do with Shen Qingru.
After all, looking around, she is the only one in the capital who would spare no effort to harm her.
But Cheng Zhihuai...
Why did he show up again?
Jiang Ling felt his mind was in a mess.
There are countless silk threads tangled together and they just can't be connected.
Jiang Lianshan and Meng Wanjie were silent for a long time, and even Jiang Yi frowned.
"Where are those prisoners?" Jiang Ling asked.
Jiang Yi replied, "Zhou Jing'an said he's been detained temporarily. This matter involves many things, so they can't just kill him easily."
But we can’t keep it closed like this forever, can we?
Instead of just passively waiting for them to appear, it is better to take the initiative.
Jiang Ling pondered for a moment and said, "Why don't I go find Shen Qingru."
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them immediately expressed their disagreement.
Meng Wanjie was startled and frowned. "She wants to kill you. She doesn't even have time to hide, and you're rushing to hurt her?"
Jiang Ling nodded, "Yes, let her do it a few more times, maybe she will reveal more clues."
"Look, isn't it the Qiu family and Cheng Zhihuai who show up again this time?"
Jiang Lianshan frowned and refused sternly: "No, I can't risk your safety no matter what."
He recalled the conversation he had with Zhou Jing'an on Jiang Ling's birthday, where they talked about taking the initiative. He said in a deep voice, "In short, you should stay out of the house less recently. You don't need to worry about these things."
Jiang Ling responded softly, "Oh, my daughter knows."
She returned to Jinyun Garden with something on her mind, but she didn't know that as soon as it got dark, Jiang Lianshan came out from the side door and ran straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The next morning, Jiang Ling had just sat down in front of the dressing table when Zizhen walked in quickly, her face full of smiles: "Miss, it's done."
Jiang Ling raised her eyebrows and smiled.
I thought about Shen Qingru's matter all night yesterday but couldn't figure it out. Finally, there is good news.
She propped up her head and said, "Tell me quickly."
Luzhu also moved over, looking excited.
Zizhen hurriedly explained in detail.
Last night, a fire broke out in a house on Xingyue Street. In the dark night, flames shot up into the sky, and the surrounding neighbors hurried to put out the fire with buckets of water.
It turned out that the kitchen stove was forgotten to be extinguished, which ignited the dry firewood. Fortunately, the kitchen was some distance away from the main house, so no one in the house was harmed.
But when everyone came with lanterns and put out the fire, they found that no one from the owner's house came out despite the noise.
Is there no one at home?
Everyone was standing in the yard, puzzled, when they saw a man push the door open and come out. He was only wearing an outer shirt and underwear, with his chest exposed and his hair loose.
He rubbed his eyes and staggered, his mind seemingly unclear. He uttered in a hoarse voice, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into a private house?"
Everyone was stunned. Isn’t this... the second son of the Yue family, Yue Weiqing?
Why is he here?
The brave ones came forward with lanterns and explained that there was a fire. When the lights came on, the scratches on Yue Weiqing's chest and waist were clearly visible, looking erotic and ambiguous.
A sweet female voice came from the room again, calling him "My dear" in a delicate voice. Before everyone could react, another female voice called him.
A beautiful woman in a golden house?
Hiding two more?
Zizhen spoke excitedly, "When Yue Weiqing regained consciousness, his face flushed and he started cursing! This attracted even more people, and now the rumor has spread everywhere: Second Young Master Yue has inherited his father's legacy and is obsessed with women."
