The Empress Dowager had been relieved a little, but after hearing what Ulanara said, her heart was instantly lifted again. She was not worried about herself, but about Emperor Kangxi.
His eyes narrowed, and he ordered Yinzhen to investigate the matter.
Things have developed to this point. No matter how much Jiang Ranli says, it will be useless. She can only wait for Yinzhen to get to the bottom of the matter.
Chang Shun followed behind Yinzhen and Jiang Ranli, and thinking of the fact that Yinzhen was now responsible for Hongli's poisoning, he couldn't help but whispered, "Didn't they say to avoid suspicion and kinship? They didn't let the Ninth Master investigate, but let the Fourth Master investigate. This doesn't mean avoiding suspicion and kinship either."
Hearing his words, Jiang Ranli explained with a wry smile, "What the Empress Dowager and the Fourth Lady and the Nian Concubine meant by avoiding suspicion and avoiding relatives is that the person investigating the case cannot have any relationship with me, the person who 'poisoned'. Our Ninth Master naturally cannot investigate, but the Fourth Master is different. He is Hongli's father and has some relationship with me, so he can investigate this case."
Speaking of Hongli's poisoning, Jiang Ranli really felt that she was being blamed for something she had done wrong. Although she could not be said to be kind to others, at least she had no intention of harming anyone. However, someone was deliberately trying to harm her.
Jiang Ranli sighed helplessly. She knew that being in the imperial family, such things were inevitable. But why did she frame her for poisoning Hongli? She had no reason to harm that lovely child.
This incident caused a big stir among the team patrolling outside the Great Wall. Many people regarded Jiang Ranli as the murderer who poisoned her. In the past few days, she had been looked down upon many times.
After being rolled eyes at again, Jiang Ranli was completely furious.
"It's been several days, why hasn't the Fourth Master found out who the murderer is? If he can't find out, even if I'm not the murderer who poisoned him, I will be regarded as the murderer."
Qiu Die and Dong Xue were serving Jiang Ranli. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, they hurried to comfort her, "Concubine's Wife, don't worry. The Fourth Master has always been prudent in doing things. I believe he will definitely clear your name."
Hearing this, Jiang Ranli suddenly remembered that the two maids around her were Yinzhen's people. If they complained about him in front of his people, wouldn't that be the same as not complaining at all?
Thinking of this, Jiang Ranli waved his hand and began to stare blankly in frustration.
Twenty days later, the patrol team arrived at their destination. However, Yinzhen still had not found the real murderer, and Jiang Ranli was still regarded as the poisoner.
Because the Queen Mother ordered that Jiang Ranli could not move around until the murderer was found, he could only look at the beautiful grassland outside the tent and sigh in despair.
After sighing countless times, Qiu Die walked in from outside. Seeing her, Jiang Ranli hurriedly asked, "How is it? Have you found Princess Tuoya?"
Qiu Die nodded and shook her head, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Seeing this, Jiang Ranli couldn't help but become anxious, "What's wrong? Did you find it? Stop nodding and shaking your head, I don't understand what you mean."
Looking at Jiang Ranli's anxious expression, Qiu Die said, "I have found Princess Tuoya, but she said that you, the concubine, are not trustworthy and you only came to see her after so many years. She is very angry, so she doesn't want to see you, the concubine."
"What?" Jiang Ranli widened her eyes. She didn't expect that Toya would not see her. They had been exchanging letters in the past few years, and she also explained why it took so long for her to come to the frontier.
