Shen Yuanniang naturally thought that this was as it should be. After all, she was the future favorite Concubine Wang. It was normal for her to be able to get along well in the palace. So she never thought that the reason why Concubine Wang was favored was related to the incident on the Dragon Boat Festival last year.

Without mentioning how angry the emperor was in the palace because of the last incident and how he ignored those powerful concubines, it was said that another year had passed and Linlang had reached the age of marriage.

Soon after reaching the age of 15, one has to prepare to get married.

These are all small matters. After all, Lady Jing'an will arrange them well.

Linlang’s main concern is the next danger she will face.

Fortunately, this time the danger is much easier to solve as we already know who the murderer is.

Linlang had been keeping an eye on her since she dealt with the fifth young lady of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion, and now she knew more or less about this woman's situation.

It was normal that the murderer was discovered in his original world, because the person who took action this time was not of high birth and the power she could mobilize was limited, so she was easily discovered by Lady Jing'an.

This was not like the previous incident with the second assistant's daughter. It was discovered that the guards arranged by Lady Jing'an around the original body were powerful. They immediately saw that the group of people chasing a group of noble ladies was not right, so they reported it to Lady Jing'an, and Lady Jing'an caught the people in advance.

This time, it was not discovered until the last moment, but someone directly told the wife of the Marquis of Jing'an, and the wife of the Marquis of Jing'an took advantage of the situation and dealt with the person.

It just so happened that the other party's family background was not as high as that of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion, so this time they were really dealt with. Unlike the previous few families, some of them knew the murderer but failed to deal with him, like Liu Si Niang from the Changle Princess's Mansion.

This time, the murderer's method was also very simple.

Because of his inferior family background, it is difficult to do anything complicated.

The method used by the murderer this time was also related to the original owner's coming of age and marriage.

The original body will get married soon after reaching the age of 15, and before that, each family will start to add makeup to her.

Not only did relatives and friends come to add to the dowry, but also Jing'an Earl's subordinates in the Ministry of War and the families of the chief doctors in the Ministry of War came to add to the dowry. After all, the boss's daughter is getting married, so you have to show some appreciation.

The perpetrator was a girl from the family of a military official.

This military official was a fifth-rank official, and was considered a middle-level official in the capital.

Although he was only a middle-level official of the fifth rank, he was a direct subordinate of the Earl of Jing'an, so his family often visited the Earl of Jing'an's mansion.

This time when the original body is getting married, they will naturally come to add to the dowry.

So the murderer tampered with the makeup her mother gave her.

In fact, Linlang could still understand the actions of Princess Changle's daughter and others. After all, if they killed the original body, it would be feasible for them to ask their family to arrange a marriage for them with Prince Anjiang.

But, is it necessary for this fifth-rank doctor's daughter to kill her original body? If she kills her original body, then the Prince of Anjiang, a super-rank prince, has nothing to do with you and will never marry you. Even so, she still plans to kill her original body. Linlang really doesn't understand her train of thought.

With a background like hers, wouldn't it be the safest option for her to just hook up with Prince Anjiang and make him a concubine?
I don't know if they are some kind of conquerors who have to kill the original body and become the legal wife before the mission is completed, otherwise why would she do such a stupid thing.

Or did she think that by killing the original body, she could somehow make it possible for her to marry the Prince of Anjiang even though she was the daughter of a fifth-rank official?

If she had this ability, wouldn't it be more convenient for her to not kill the original body but directly seduce Prince Anjiang and make him break off the engagement with the original body?
So Linlang really couldn't understand why she did this. She would definitely find a way to ask these people why they did this and why they had to kill the original body. How did the girl do it when adding makeup?

The girl's mother gave the original body a set of dowry, which included a pair of bracelets. She put some stuff in the bracelets. If someone wore that stuff for a long time, it would be lethal, similar to a chronic poison.

That's right, the girl's background is not good, so it would be difficult for her to find help, so she can only do something with this kind of thing.

Doing so would naturally make it easy for people to discover it. After all, it was impossible for Lady Jing'an to give the gifts from various families directly to her daughter, so she would naturally check them to see if they were safe.

So her plan would never succeed.

In fact, what this girl did was not discovered later, but was discovered by Lady Jing'an very early on, which allowed Lady Jing'an to take advantage of the situation.

How come Lady Jing'an discovered it so early?
The reason is also extremely simple.

The girl asked the doctor's wife what kind of makeup she had prepared for Linlang. After the doctor's wife told her, the girl asked if she could see it. She didn't want to wear it, but just admire it.

The doctor's wife did not object, but still warned her not to move it around, lest it get damaged and cost her money.

The girl naturally agreed.

So the makeup came into the hands of the girl.

Once it was in her hands, it was easy for her to take action.

She didn't have any special skills, but she seemed to know a little about chemistry. She mixed some potions and dipped the bracelet in it.

Originally, she wanted to soak all her head ornaments in it, but she was afraid that some things would not be good if soaked for too long, so she only soaked the bracelets. After all, pure gold bracelets are easier to soak.

What will happen to the bracelet soaked in these potions? It will cause cancer, because the potions she made have a high risk of cancer.

——These are what she told Lady Jing'an after the incident.

To be honest, if this girl hadn't known this in advance, she would have succeeded, because after soaking in the potion, the gold bracelet still had the same color as before, and you couldn't tell the difference at all. Even when you smelled it carefully, there was a bit of an unpleasant odor, but the other party had fumigated the box containing the head ornaments with incense, so you couldn't smell it at all.

How did Lady Jing'an find out about what this girl did?

This is also very simple. Naturally, it is because someone informed Lady Jing'an.

The doctor's daughter thought that no one else knew about the fact that she used the potion to soak the gold bracelet, because she made the potion during her nap every day. After getting the potion, the doctor's daughter soaked the bracelet in it and placed it in the place she had prepared long ago - under the cabinet in the dressing room of her room.

After all, this potion is carcinogenic, so she naturally couldn't put it under her bed, for fear that smelling it for a long time would be bad for her health, so she put it under the locker in the dressing room.

Although she also uses the dressing room, it is impossible for her to stay in it for a long time. It is not a problem to smell it for a while every day.

In fact, this potion is not only for the original body, she has also used it to harm others.

This is also normal. With a sharp blade in her arms, she naturally has the desire to kill. She has such a powerful weapon, and others don't know about it. How can she resist hurting others? (End of this chapter)
