Queen Juan is here, run away

Chapter 415 The Death of the Third Crown Princess

Tong Yun, a key figure, was killed by Wu Xue with one move on the day of the incident, leaving Hu Feifei unable to interrogate him.

He found out that this palace maid was sold into the palace as a maid by an old man a few years ago when he was still the emperor. Classics recorded that this old man was her father.

Hu Feifei sent someone to check the surname recorded in the classics, and found that the old man who sold her to the palace was not her biological father at all, but the one who adopted her just before she entered the palace.

What is even more strange is that a few months after Tongyun successfully entered the palace, the old man who sold her to the palace lost his footing and fell into the river and drowned. The clues were almost lost.

But despite this, Hu Feifei still found something.

According to the people in the old man's village, the old man went to the capital to pick up a daughter, and later he became rich. He ate well, drank spicy food, and hung out in taverns every day. As for the daughter, it seemed that he had sent her away to pursue her future.

One time when the old man was drunk, he let the slip and mentioned Tongyun's origin. He said mysteriously that she was a maid sent by a wealthy family in the capital.

The villagers were curious and asked who the rich family was, but the old man refused to say anything. He only said that he collected money to do things. He, a humble citizen, did not dare to offend the big shots.

At this point, Hu Feifei knew that Tongyun was another chess piece sent to the palace. Who was the family who sent her to the palace? After many years, the physical evidence has disappeared, and I am afraid that it will no longer be possible to find out.

But one thing is certain, the person who sent Tong Yun into the palace must be a concubine in the harem.

This man had a deep scheming mind. Before the emperor ascended the throne, he had planted chess pieces to lurk around the favored Concubine Kang, and has been used by her to this day.

And this person was most likely someone who had already been confirmed to enter the East Palace when the Crown Prince first selected a concubine, because the time when Tong Yun entered the palace was almost the same as the Crown Prince's first selection of a concubine.

The area here is much smaller, including Concubine Xie and Concubine Zhao.

After hearing this, Yuchi Gong did not deny or agree.

He did not deny that it might indeed be the concubine who was originally confirmed to enter the East Palace, but he could not rule out other possibilities.

After all, the crown prince's selection of concubines attracted much attention, and the people selected on the list were closely watched by all parties. It was too risky to arrange for someone to enter the palace at this juncture.

He believes that there is one kind of person who cannot be ignored, and that is the person who was absolutely certain that he could enter the palace.

Whether it is the Jinghong Palace case or the Taiye Lake frame-up, it is enough to show that the people behind the scenes have extensive collusion and great ambitions.

It is not surprising that such a person is so scheming and careful every step of the way, confident that he can enter the palace and making arrangements in advance.

Yuchi Gong suspected that this person might have coveted the position of crown princess.

The three crown princes at that time all died unexpectedly. Yuchi Gong had suspected something was wrong at that time. He never believed in the hard-failed theory, but at that time he focused all his energy on investigating corrupt officials, and those three prospective father-in-laws All listed.

Therefore, even if he knew something was fishy, ​​he had no time to take it into consideration and did not investigate it carefully. In the final analysis, the three princesses were destined not to enter the palace, and they would be buried with their families until the end.

Now that I think about it carefully, the accidents that happened to these three princesses are very similar to the current situation where accidents happen to people in the palace who gain favor even a little bit.

Yuchi Gong thought that he had made a judgment here, and immediately ordered: "Thoroughly investigate whether the deaths of the three crown princesses were caused by others, and find out the strangeness and connections."

If he was really harmed by someone, the plotter had a big plan. He had a hunch that this person was the same person who was causing trouble in the palace now. If he was allowed to develop, it would inevitably lead to greater disasters.
