The next day, Hwarang didn't investigate the assassins, as if he wasn't going to rescue Bao Zheng at all.

He ordered people to carry Lingling's body and went directly to Jingxinzhai.

After entering Jingxinzhai, Hualang carried Lingling's body into the living room, then looked at the astonished Concubine Die and Concubine Ming and said, "Lingling colluded with others and wanted to steal the emperor's jade seal. We caught her, in order to protect her." The mastermind behind the scenes committed suicide, Lingling was Concubine Die's maid before, I wonder if Concubine Die understands Lingling?"

Concubine Die frowned slightly, but soon she smiled softly: "I don't understand, to be honest, Lingling is just one of my many maids, how can I understand her."

Hwarang smiled, he naturally didn't think Concubine Die was telling the truth.

"Then, I wonder if Concubine Die can tell me how Lingling got into your meditation room?"

"This is where the maids are recruited. The emperor sent someone to arrange them. Things like recruiting maids have always been handled by the eunuchs in the palace."

"Even so, when they are looking for these women to be maids, they should have a clear understanding of their family backgrounds. Otherwise, don't they take your safety too seriously if they serve you as maids like this?"

Concubine Die was stunned for a moment, he couldn't refute Hua Lang's words, so he had to say: "Yes, there is such a thing, their situation has indeed been investigated, but I don't have the heart to look, Hua Gongzi If you want to see it, I will order people to bring those things."

Not long after, a maid brought the roster, and Hwarang looked it over carefully, and there was an introduction to each of the maids. This Lingling seemed to be selling her body to bury her father, and then someone bought it for meditation. As for Lingling's maid, there is no record of a single word about what happened before Lingling.

It's normal to think about it, but it's just to choose a few maids for those outdated concubines in Jingxinzhai, there are so many particularities there.

Lingling's past investigation is not clear, Hua Lang suddenly smiled, and he handed the roster to Concubine Die, saying: "Concubine Die, please look!"

Concubine Die was a little puzzled, picked up the roster and looked at it, and said, "What do you mean, what do you want me to see?"

Hualang shrugged and said: "Naturally, I want you to read Lingling's records. She was bought by selling her body to bury her father. That is to say, she must have lived in Jingxinzhai for a period of time when she became what she is now. Then I have to wonder if she was ordered by the two of you to find someone to steal the jade seal."

"You..." Concubine Die and Concubine Ming couldn't help becoming angry when they heard what Hua Lang meant. They wished they could kill Hua Lang now, but they finally endured it.

"It's nonsense, what do the two of us want Yuxi to do, we are living a good life now, and we don't want to fight against the emperor at all, besides, the emperor is our benefactor, we are not ungrateful people." Concubine Die stared at Hualang , eyes full of anger.

But at this time, Hwarang didn't care at all. He smiled: "Unfortunately, people are greedy. If you want this, you want that. I know the behavior of the two of you after you live in Jingxinzhai. The imperial concubine keeps making friends with those ministers in the court, while the concubine Die keeps amassing money, and even has face heads in various places. These emperors also know it, but it's not easy to see the two, and they don't want to say it. Thinking of the two of you being ambitious, not only are you dissatisfied with this, you even want to rebel against the emperor, if this is the case, then you are welcome to repair monsters."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Die and Concubine Ming felt their hearts were in their throats. The things they did were thought to be very hidden, but they did not expect that the Emperor knew what they were doing. Well, Hwarang actually knew that they were all just clowns who were under the nose of others.

However, even so, they still have a strong desire to survive, so the two of them insisted that they did not send anyone to steal Yuxi, and they did not know who Lingling was.

However, although they insisted, Hwarang still put them both in prison.

These two high-ranking women suddenly fell into a trough. There was a stench in the prison, and the temperature dropped in the middle of the night, but there were not many clothes for them.

Even if they used to be concubines of the late emperor, it would be the same if they were in jail.

Concubine Die's property was all confiscated, and her faces were also arrested, because they wanted to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes, maybe they could start from these faces.

After all this was done, Hwarang was not in a hurry to ask those interviewees, but brought forward Qian Yun. Now that the case of the stolen jade seal was under his control, it was time for him to investigate the case of Yuhuayuan's assassination up.

After several days of suffering in prison, Qian Yun had already lost his will. When he saw Hwarang, he suddenly knelt down and kept crying for mercy. Hwarang snorted coldly and said, "If you are really innocent , even if you don’t cry for mercy, I will let you go, but if you are guilty, it’s useless to shout out your throat, Qian Yun, are you willing to recruit now?”

Qian Yun rolled her eyes and shook her head: "I was wronged, I was wronged!"

"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you did. After Zhang Bu was killed, Concubine Zhang secretly called you to a ship to conspire with you, and then you called the killer. You think we don't know anything about it. Is it? Those killers in the Royal Garden are clearly colluded with Concubine Zhang, do you admit it or not?"

Meeting Concubine Zhang and arranging a killer are all extremely confidential things, but Qian Yun didn't expect Hua Lang to know it clearly. His defenses finally collapsed. He knelt on the ground, begging for mercy, and told the whole story It turned out that in order to frame Bao Zheng, Concubine Zhang Gui asked Qian Yun to arrange a killer to pretend to assassinate the emperor at the birthday banquet, and then put the blame on Bao Zheng. However, Qian Yun said that the first killer who rushed out was He arranged it, but the killers of the second and third waves had nothing to do with him at all.

Hwarang had expected this kind of situation a long time ago. Judging from the situation at the time, there were indeed three waves of killers, and these three waves of killers were assigned by the three waves of forces. One wave of killers pretended to kill the emperor, and the other wave of killers was Really want the life of the emperor, and the main purpose of the third wave is Concubine Zhang.

The first group was sent by Concubine Zhang Gui, so who sent the second group and the third group, why are their purposes of killing different?

Judging from the current situation, it should not be difficult to find out the mastermind behind the third group of people who wanted to assassinate Concubine Zhang. Hwarang is still a little confident about this.
