Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 704: Many Cheats 25
As for the fact that the original body didn't know about this, it is probably because even if people knew about it, they didn't dare to talk about the royal family's gossip outside and didn't spread the scandal, so it was normal that the original body hadn't heard of it.

However, at that moment, Lady Jing'an had indeed found out about the situation. The couple exchanged glances and said nothing on the spot. However, when they returned home later, Linlang heard them discussing this matter.

Moreover, just like in the original world, the two did not tell me about this, obviously not wanting me to hear this dirty thing.

After returning home, with no outsiders around, Jing'an Earl said to his wife, "Madam, who do you think wants to harm Prince Anjiang? I can't think of any reason why that person would want to harm him."

Lady Jing'an said, "It's not necessarily to harm him. Maybe he is just using someone else's knife to kill someone, because I heard that the female official is the most favored concubine Qing. If Prince Anjiang had not been alert and left quickly, but fell into a trap, Concubine Qing would definitely be hated by His Majesty. And if Concubine Qing were to get into trouble, many people would benefit. After all, besides Concubine Qing, there are also a few favored concubines in the palace. If Concubine Qing were to fall, it would definitely be good for them."

Jing'an Bo looked around and whispered, "What if it's not a fight for favor, but a fight for the throne? Concubine Qing is favored, and I heard rumors that the emperor wants to make Concubine Qing's son the crown prince, but the queen has a son, so she can't get ahead of him, unless... the queen is deposed and Concubine Qing is made queen. So if Concubine Qing is in trouble, the queen will also benefit."

Lady Jing'an nodded and said, "That's a possibility. However, no matter who did it, this person must have great power, because he was able to arrange people in the palace to pour soup on Prince Anjiang, let the eunuchs take him to a certain palace, and also lead Concubine Qing's female officials to that palace, and finally report to the Queen and let the Queen and the Emperor go to watch the show. Being able to accomplish so many things and coordinate all parties does not require ordinary power. I feel that there are only a handful of people in the palace who have such great power."

Jing'an Bo said: "That's why I said that the Queen is the most suspicious."

"But if this matter is exposed, His Majesty will definitely think that the Queen is not managing the harem well, so could this really be the Queen's doing?"

"If we can bring down Concubine Qing, it will be worth it. After all, Concubine Qing is the biggest threat to her now. Now that this has happened, His Majesty will blame the Queen for not managing the harem well, but at most she will just scold her. The one she hates the most is still Concubine Qing, after all, it was Concubine Qing's people who got into trouble."

Lady Jing'an nodded and said, "That's right. We'll know what the emperor does next."

Linlang doesn’t know who the murderer is yet, but she knows that there is one possibility missing from the two people’s guesses, that is, maybe this person is coming for Prince Anjiang?
I had speculated before that there might be some strange developments in the future for Prince Anjiang, but there were fewer people who targeted Prince Anjiang. However, fewer does not mean that there would be no such thing. What if this time was the case? Someone knew about Prince Anjiang's future development, and it was not the kind of woman who wanted to marry Prince Anjiang, but someone who wanted to get rid of him. It was possible that the emperor would be furious and demote Prince Anjiang to a commoner. By then, it would be difficult for Prince Anjiang to have any development.

If we take this into consideration, there are many possibilities for the murderer, and they are difficult to predict. Because in the future, anyone who has a conflict with Prince Anjiang could be the murderer. This includes princes in the palace, the emperor's younger brother outside the palace, and even cousins ​​like Prince Anjiang, as well as their sons.

Apart from other things, there are so many mothers of princes in the palace, it is possible. After all, if the mother of a prince is reborn, or knows the future plot for other reasons, it is possible that she wants to take the initiative and deal with the Prince of Anjiang. However, considering that the female official of Concubine Qing is taken over at the same time, it is equivalent to dragging Concubine Qing into the water, and the possibility of the concubines in the harem taking action is greatly increased, because dragging Concubine Qing into the water, in addition to competing for the throne, can also compete for favor, killing two birds with one stone.

Therefore, Linlang guessed that this matter was most closely related to the empresses in the palace, so the little bees she sent out were mainly aimed at those empresses with princes, and the others were just a casual check.

However, Linlang estimated that no results would be seen for the time being. After all, the emperor was paying attention to this matter. Those who acted secretly would certainly not dare to reveal any clues. Even in private, they would not dare to talk to themselves. After all, the palace was not like other places. People in the palace were more cautious. They would be afraid that someone in the palace might eavesdrop, so even in private, they would not dare to talk to themselves.

Sure enough, after that, Linlang watched the surveillance videos sent back by Little Bee from the palace every day, but none of them were useful. At most, she could only know the latest progress of the emperor's investigation.

The maid who spilled the soup on Prince Anjiang, the eunuch who led Prince Anjiang to that palace, the eunuch who reported to the lady-in-waiting of the Queen that there was an affair in the palace, and the maid who led the lady-in-waiting of Concubine Qing to that palace were all instructed by the same person.

But they didn't know the person who ordered them. They only said that the other party was a woman wearing a mask, so they couldn't recognize who she was.

The reasons why they were willing to help this man were that some of them had leverage over him, some were greedy for money and wanted to save some money for their families outside the palace, and so on.

They were not worried about being discovered because it was a dinner party and although the palace was brightly lit, it was not as bright as during the day. When they did these things and the female officials around Prince Anjiang and Concubine Qing discovered that they were being plotted against and thought of this incident, they probably would not be able to remember what they looked like and would not be exposed.

Of course, it doesn’t matter even if they are exposed. After all, those who have the handle in the hands of the masked man dare not not do it. And those who have no handle mostly have some health problems and will not live long. They want to save money for their families outside the palace, so even if there is a possibility of exposure, they are willing to help - they never thought that the emperor would personally inquire about this matter, and then they were soon exposed and arrested. They wanted to save money for their families outside the palace. If they were exposed, it might bring disaster to their families. For example, they would encounter an emperor with a bad temper and confiscate their property. Who can bear it?
However, among these people, the former category is the majority. After all, it is not easy to find someone who is about to die, so the people behind the scenes mostly get the handle on someone and then ask those people for help.

The person behind the scenes naturally did not expect that the emperor would intervene. After all, her purpose was to let the emperor see Prince Anjiang and the female official together, and then make him angry.

As for what to do if the emperor asks about it and those people are exposed...they are just cannon fodder, just die, so what.

Anyway, she was wearing a mask and the emperor couldn't find out, so she didn't arrange for those people to be killed. They were just told to commit suicide immediately after being caught and not to give her up.
