Chapter 1105 The Murderer in the Dark 16
After being slapped in the face this time, Concubine Song was obviously more honest, because what she had done had spread out and caused laughter from the whole mansion. When she heard about it, she was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't go out, so she naturally became much more honest.

In fact, everyone made a big fuss on purpose so that the news would reach Concubine Song's ears. Because they were unhappy about Concubine Song's sudden appearance, they deliberately made a big fuss about this little incident of Concubine Song and made the whole mansion laugh at her. Concubine Song didn't know the routine and was too embarrassed to go out after being laughed at by everyone.

In the end, it was Concubine Song who told her that it was a trivial matter and not to take it seriously, and only then did Concubine Song come to her senses.

After she came to her senses, Lady Song was naturally filled with resentment towards the entire mansion. She felt that none of the women in the backyard of Prince Qingjiang's mansion were good people, so she wanted to become a concubine even more, thinking that after becoming a concubine, she would take good care of these women.

Without mentioning what Concubine Song thought, let’s just say that this matter had little impact on Linlang.

Although the selected concubines and concubines without official status felt a little resentful that Linlang got the pearl while they did, everyone could barely accept the reason because the Crown Prince's Consort told Concubine Song that it was because Linlang had a son that she got the pearl. Among Prince Qingjiang's six sons, except for the Crown Prince and Linlang's son, none of the mothers of the other four, the two concubines, and the two concubines, became selected concubines after having sons. Therefore, among the selected concubines, except Linlang, no one had a son. This is why the Crown Prince's Concubine's words were valid. It can also be seen from this how miserable her original body had been before. Those who gave birth to daughters in the mansion all became selected concubines, but she gave birth to a son who was regarded as a continuation of the family line in this era, and she did not even get an official status.

Besides, it was okay to select concubines, but none of the concubines were given one, so they had even less reason to complain.

After all, the selected concubines are a minority, and the concubines are the majority. The concubines who make up the majority of the backyard have no objections, so Linlang is naturally less affected.

Of course, the reason why these concubines didn't have much opinion on this matter was, firstly, because they didn't get the title of Selected Concubine, and they felt it was normal that they didn't get it; secondly, and mainly because they currently had more opinions about Selected Concubine Song, and their hatred towards Linlang was obviously not as high as that towards Selected Concubine Song, so Linlang was less affected.

Without mentioning how Linlang handled this incident, it can only be said that Linlang still did not discover anything after monitoring the entire mansion. Fortunately, the original body did not die immediately, but died after being ill for several days. She has a treatment device in her hand, so she should be able to find out the cause of the disease. She can survive by taking the right medicine. She is not afraid of death. On the contrary, she can trace back the murderer based on the cause of the disease.

Even if the enemy used mysterious means, as long as the person was not killed immediately, Linlang had a way to catch the real murderer. After all, she also had some mysterious supplies in her space.

So Linlang was not too anxious when the murderer was not found for the time being.

Soon, the people in the mansion heard that Concubine Ye, who had left the mansion before, was pregnant. They could not help but be surprised. At this moment, they finally discovered the benefits of Concubine Ye leaving Qingjiang Palace and going to that palace - being pregnant was a huge benefit!
Having a child means having a future. If you can't get pregnant in this mansion, you have no future. Even if you are treated better than Concubine Ye temporarily, what's the point? In the future, when Prince Qingjiang and the prince of that mansion pass away, they will be much worse than Concubine Ye.

Thinking of this, many people wanted to leave the Qingjiang Palace and go to that palace. After all, it seemed that the prince of that palace was better at giving birth to children. If they went there, they could get pregnant quickly and have their own children. That would definitely be better than staying in the Qingjiang Palace now. Although for the ancients, giving birth was like going through the gates of hell, some people might say that they could just be concubines. Why go through the gates of hell for a better future? It was too dangerous. However, there were always people who were ambitious and willing to take a gamble.

Moreover, as long as you don't give birth all the time and only give birth once, the chance of death is still relatively small. Only those who give birth all the time are prone to accidents. Just like people say that if you walk on the road at night too much, you will always encounter ghosts. If you give birth to too many children, the chance of encountering difficult labor will also increase.

If you only have one child, the mortality rate will be much lower. Some people are willing to take a gamble for their future.

Needless to say, there were people who really saw Aunt Ye go to that palace, get pregnant, and run to Prince Qingjiang and say she wanted to leave.

Prince Qingjiang was also very easy to talk to and let them all go.

On the one hand, although Prince Qingjiang is a good person, on the other hand, Linlang discovered that it was also Prince Qingjiang's cleverness.

Most of those who wanted to leave were not very favored - this was also normal, as those who were favored would have been promoted to above the rank of selected concubines and would not leave - since they were not very favored, and the other party said they wanted to leave, Prince Qingjiang was not the kind of unkind person who would not kill them out of anger, so he naturally let them go.

For those who left, they felt that they could pursue a good future after leaving the palace. For Prince Qingjiang, it was actually a good thing - he no longer liked these people, but since he favored them, he couldn't help but support them. Although their monthly salary and annual allowance were not much, it was still 48 taels. Add to that the clothes, jewelry, daily food and drink expenses, and the servants sent to serve them. To support these people, it would not be much, at least 100 or 200 taels a year, right?
If one person leaves, he can save one or two hundred taels; if two leave, he can save three or four hundred taels. How great is that! With this money, he can marry a younger one. Besides, he will not be called an ungrateful man. He favored someone, but when he no longer likes her, he can drive her away. After all, she wanted to leave of her own accord.

Anyway, this is the situation after Linlang's observation, because she found that Prince Qingjiang was not sad at all after letting those people go. On the contrary, when he started to recruit new people, she knew that because there were more and more people in the mansion and the expenses were getting bigger and bigger, Prince Qingjiang had no money to recruit new people. After all, he was a leisurely prince with no extra source of income, and the money he had every year was limited. He couldn't afford to support more. Now, several people left and the positions were vacant, so he had money to recruit new people, so he started to recruit new people.

So the departure of those concubines brought new prospects for those who left, and it was also a new world for Prince Qingjiang. It was a win-win situation.

No wonder when Concubine Ye wanted to leave, Prince Qingjiang did not try to keep her and just followed her. It was probably because he had long felt that these women he disliked were a burden, but he just couldn't abandon them. Now that he saw them leaving on their own initiative, he must be very happy in his heart.

Not to mention that because of Concubine Ye, several unfavored concubines also left, leaving the mansion with fewer concubines. Let's just say that Linlang has made some progress in investigating the intersection of people who died of acute illness or inexplicable causes in Beijing in recent years.
