"Tell me quickly, what have you found out?" Dong E asked quickly when she saw the person coming.
"In reply to Madam Madam, I found out that when Ninth Master arrived in the capital yesterday, he was with a woman. He first took her to a snack shop and then came back to the mansion," Hongmei explained the information she had obtained in detail.
When Dong E heard that Yinzhen had returned to the capital with a woman, her eyes immediately became gloomy.
"Where did that woman go after Master Jiu came back?" Dong E asked in a harsh voice.
Hongmei shook her head and said, "As for your reply, Madam Madam, I don't know the answer."
Upon hearing this, Dong E raised her eyes and glared at Hongmei, grabbed the teacup at hand and threw it at her, saying angrily, "If you can't even do such a small thing, what use is there for me to have you?"
Hongmei was frightened by Dong E's behavior. She always knew that Dong E's temper was not as good as it seemed, but she never expected Dong E to do such a thing.
"Madam, please calm down and listen to what I have to say."
"Speak," Dong E's anger had not subsided, and her chest was heaving up and down.
Seeing this, Hongmei did not dare to be negligent, "Fujin, I also heard that the Fourth Master and the Thirteenth Master also arrived in the capital yesterday. After arriving in the capital, they did not return to the mansion, but went to that snack shop."
Hearing this, Dong E's delicate brows frowned, and doubts appeared on her face with exquisite makeup.
"Ninth Master doesn't have a close relationship with Fourth Master and Thirteenth Master, so why did they all go there first thing after they came back one day?"
Dong E couldn't figure out the reason, so she asked Xiang Hongmei, "Is there anything else?"
Hongmei nodded repeatedly and said, "I heard from the owner of the snack shop that the Ninth Master ate with the Fourth Master and the Thirteenth Master."
Dong E's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Then have you asked the owner of the snack shop where that woman went?"
"I asked, and the shopkeeper said he didn't know because there were too many people in the store at the time. When Jiu Ye and the others left, he was not at the counter, so he didn't know," Hongmei replied.
Dong E pondered for a long time, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Go tell the owner of the snack shop to keep an eye on Jiu Ye's movements from now on, and pay more attention to the women around Jiu Ye. Also, send someone to closely monitor the snack shop."
Dong E knew the snack shop that Hongmei mentioned. It was a shop that had just opened a few months ago. With its novel food and good taste, it quickly gained a foothold in the capital. However, the reason why it was able to gain a foothold was also because of Yinzhen, Yin'er, the Tenth Prince, and the Fourteenth Prince.
At first, Dong E thought that Yinzhen just thought the snack shop was novel and would never go there again after going there. After all, he was the ninth prince of the Qing Dynasty and had a noble status. How could he often go to those shabby places?
As a result, she didn't expect that not only Yin'er often went there, but even Yinzhen, the tenth prince, the thirteenth prince, and the fourteenth prince often went there.
Later, she asked someone to buy some food there and brought it back. After tasting it, she found that it was indeed delicious, so she thought that Yinzhen and the others thought the food there was quite novel.
Originally, she didn't plan to pay much attention to the snack shop, but now it's different. It's a place Yinzhen often goes to, and maybe the woman named Jiang Ranli will also go there. She must keep a close eye on the place.
There was no one named Jiang Ranli in the entire palace. Dong E suspected that Jiang Ranli was not a member of the palace at all, but a woman that Yinzhen found outside. He kept her by his side because he liked her so much.
