Unfortunately, it was the first day of April and a light drizzle started at dawn.

The sky was blue, the rain was fine, and a small carriage with green curtains was traveling through the rain mist. Nanny Chang in the carriage closed her eyes and rested, not showing much interest in the street scene outside the window.

For the women in the palace, it was not easy to see the scenery outside the palace, but after walking the same road for years and months, without being able to take one more step, they gradually lost all interest and expectations.

Fude Temple is located in the west of the city. Maple trees are planted along the way. It is the most beautiful when the red leaves cover the sky in autumn.

At this moment, Nanny Chang didn't even glance at her, and was quickly welcomed in respectfully by the monks waiting there.

There is no need to mention the worshipping of Buddha and burning incense afterwards. After finishing these things, Nanny Chang did not rush to leave, but took a walk in the temple, breathing the fresh and free air, which was considered to be a half-day of leisure from her busy life.

This was Nanny Chang's old habit. At times like this, she didn't like the nun to follow her, and only took the two palace maids with her for a walk.

This way, we walked into the depths of flowers and trees.

A glimpse of pale blue shone through the gaps between the flowers and trees, and the sound of conversation could be heard faintly.

Nanny Chang paused and was about to turn around and leave.

Having lived in the palace for a long time and seen a lot of secrets, she knew very well that curiosity would bring disaster, and she had no interest in eavesdropping.

But the next words stopped her from leaving and made her take a step closer.

Although Fude Temple is a royal temple, it is not open only to the royal family. It is open to ordinary pilgrims except on certain festivals.

"Have you heard that the Prince of Qi wants to kill the Princess of Qi?"

Another voice laughed and said, "Who hasn't heard about this by now? Tsk tsk, I didn't expect the King of Qi to be this kind of person..."

The previous voice retorted: "If you ask me, the truth is not necessarily like this. The truth and falsehood of your affairs are not something that we ordinary people can see clearly."

Another person laughed and said, "Anyway, if the nobles get into trouble, we can have some fun watching. Otherwise, life would be boring."

"Yes. Speaking of which, quite a few nobles have been in trouble in the past two years. Recently, there are Prince Qi and Prince Xiang. Previously, there were other princes. Even the eldest princess lost her life—"

Nanny Chang was stunned for a moment.

The eldest princess? Which one are you talking about?

There are quite a few princesses married in the capital, and I have never heard of any of them getting into trouble. Not long ago, all those who could attend the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet came, with only one who took leave due to serious illness.

But listening to what these two people said, the statement of losing one's life should not be connected with death from illness, right?

Nanny Chang couldn't help but listen carefully.

A sigh came from across the flowers and trees: "She is still the eldest princess, but she has become a commoner. She is even worse than us..."

Nanny Chang was startled and couldn't help but take a step back.

There is only one princess who became a commoner.

Princess Rongyang is dead?

When did this happen? How come Ci Ning Temple didn't get any news?

Surprised, Nanny Chang took another step closer.

The two palace maids following her looked very nervous and dared not even to breathe.

A sighing voice was heard: "The eldest princess also married the wrong person. I heard that Prince Consort Cui was always cold and indifferent to her. She was like a widow, and in the end she died at the hands of Prince Consort Cui..."

Nanny Chang was shocked again.

Was Princess Rongyang murdered by Prince Consort Cui?

Nanny Chang was so shocked that her ears stood up.

But the two people behind the flowers and trees changed the subject and talked about the recent news in the capital.

These two women were obviously very fond of gossiping, and such women were all too common in the capital. Nanny Chang was not even interested in knowing the other party's identity and was only concerned about Princess Rongyang's affairs.

She made a decision after a brief thought. She signaled the two palace maids to stay where they were and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.

Behind the flowers and trees were two ordinary-looking women. The older one wore a blue skirt, and the younger one wore a red skirt. Although the styles were fashionable, the material was not good in Nanny Chang's opinion.

She quickly concluded that these were probably the wives of two minor officials, who were not of high rank but were the fastest to spread gossip.

If it were ordinary people, they would not have such leisure time because they are busy with their lives.

It is not difficult for two women to cope with this.

Nanny Chang strode over.

The appearance of Nanny Chang stunned the two women. The older woman in the blue skirt asked, "Who are you——"

In order to make it convenient to leave the palace, Nanny Chang only wore clothes of the style worn outside the palace. The material was not top-notch, but her temperament could not be hidden.

At least the two women could tell that the person who suddenly appeared must be of higher status than them, so they used honorifics.

Nanny Chang glanced at the two women and said with full aura: "You don't need to ask me about my identity, and I don't ask about your identities either. I just want to inquire about the situation of Princess Rongyang."

The two women looked at each other in surprise.

Nanny Chang took out two gold ingots and stuffed them into the hands of the two women.

The gold ingots were so heavy that the two women were frightened to hold them.

Nanny Chang smiled faintly: "I think the story of Princess Rongyang is already known to everyone. It is not a secret. As long as you tell me what you know, these two gold ingots will be yours. You don't know me, and I don't know you. It would be better to leave Fude Temple and pretend that nothing happened, isn't it?"

The two women looked at each other and agreed. They quickly told the whole story about Princess Rongyang.

After hearing this, Nanny Chang looked at the two women deeply and left quickly.

When the footsteps faded away, the woman in the red skirt touched the gold ingot hidden in her arms and couldn't help but sigh: "It's so easy to make money from these nobles."

This gold ingot is enough to cover her husband's salary for most of half a year.

The woman in the blue skirt glared at her and said, "Stop talking about this and get out of here."

Of course, the previous words were spoken to the person just now.

Because it was the first day of the new year, although there was a drizzle, there were still quite a few pilgrims coming to burn incense.

The two women, feeling guilty, deliberately avoided people and took secluded roads. When they arrived at a bamboo forest, everything in front of their eyes suddenly went dark and when they woke up, they didn't know where they were.

A young man appeared in front of him.

The two women wanted to scream, but found their mouths were blocked and no sound came out.

The young man's face turned pale: "Jin Linwei is handling the case!"

The two women's eyes widened in fear.

How come there is Kam Lin Wei?

They just accepted a gold ingot and said a few idle words, it shouldn't be that serious!

The young man played with the dagger and said coldly: "I have something to ask you. If you shout nonsense or don't answer honestly, think about the gold ingots you didn't have time to spend."

The two women were terrified.

It turned out that the gold ingots were the cause of the trouble!

The gags were removed and the two women gasped for air.

"Tell me, who are you?"

…

After asking, the young man concluded from his experience that the two women would not dare to lie, so he let them go.

It is better to be cautious. Soon, two men with normal looks followed a woman quietly.

The young man hurried back to Prince Yan's mansion, and came to the study room and said to Yu Jin excitedly: "Prince, there is something wrong with the Queen Mother!"
