The concubine's graceful phoenix comes to the world

Chapter 182 Finding Clues (2)
Shangguanrou knew that the mastermind behind the scenes would definitely not stop here. She didn't know what else she would do to frame her, so she had to find out who the mastermind behind the scenes was as soon as possible. Only by removing it as soon as possible can she be safer.

"Mother, this old slave found out that there was something strange about a maid beside Zhou Yimeng. That maid was assigned to Zhou Yimeng's palace later. At that time, a maid in Zhou Yimeng's womb suddenly died suddenly, so this maid was assigned to Zhou Yimeng's palace. In the palace, the maid was named Youcai. She originally worked in the Clothes Bureau. Later, for some reason, Master Zhou caught the eye of Master Zhou and was asked to come to his palace by Master Zhou. The old servant found out that the violent There is a problem with the death of the dead palace lady, and the palace lady named Youcai seemed to be in contact with someone secretly, and the contact became more and more frequent later on. It seems that the death of the sudden death palace lady had something to do with this Youcai can't get rid of the relationship, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence. And after Master Zhou's downfall, Youcai returned to work as an errand in the Clothes Bureau. She is still as majestic as before in the Clothes Bureau. The old slave originally wanted to investigate further, but he did not expect that this morning, he heard other palace people say that a corpse was found in a well in the Leng Palace, and the dead maid was the original Youcai. When people found You Cai, her clothes were neatly dressed, and there were no scars or signs of struggle on her body. It seemed that she jumped into the well by herself. Everyone said that You Cai wanted to follow Master Zhou committed suicide by jumping into a well, but this old slave always feels that things are not as simple as those people say, so he comes to report to the empress now, I don’t know what the empress thinks."

Shangguanrou frowned, this news is really not good news.

"Mother, it seems that the mastermind behind the scenes has sensed that we are investigating her, that's why he disposed of Youcai so quickly. If you say that Youcai committed suicide, I don't believe it, and I don't believe she will Followed Zhou Yimeng to die. Presumably, this statement after Youcai's death was deliberately done by the mastermind behind the scenes, in order to let people no longer focus on how Youcai died, but instead focus on why Youcai died. On the issue of jumping into the well. Obviously, her strategy succeeded, and everyone's attention was diverted. I always feel that Xiaocai's death is also the reason for the drug used by the mastermind behind the scenes. Maybe find a way to let Qinliu see Youcai's body, if there is no way, then forget it, don't we still have a clue in our hands, just don't be discovered by others this time."

"Yes, ma'am, this old slave will do his best."

In a palace, a woman held a cup of tea and slowly sipped it, as if she was tasting some fine nectar.

"Master, as you expected, there is indeed a medical expert beside the imperial concubine Ming, that is, the maid named Qinliu. This maid is from the group of people that Mrs. Shangshu bought for the empress before the imperial concubine Ming entered the palace. Later, Concubine Ming picked this palace lady. The life experience of this palace lady seems to be a mystery. I mobilized everyone in our palace and outside the palace to find out. It seems that this person named Qinliu came out of thin air. It came out the same. Master, I once secretly sent someone to buy Qinliu, but she refused. This Qinliu seems to be very capable, higher than me, and the slave always feels that someone is secretly protecting Qinliu. , the servant wanted to assassinate Qin Liu, but failed even once, it seems that it is not easy to kill her."

"Oh, it seems that this Shangguanrou is really scary, she looks soft and weak on the surface, but who is not a master around her, even Li Nanny is the most trusted court lady of the former favorite concubine, She is willing to work for Shangguanrou, which shows that Shangguanrou has a lot of schemes. Forget it, let's let this matter go. Anyway, I don't plan to make a move now, so let's let this Qinliu go first. By the way, isn't Shangguanrou secretly investigating her fake pregnancy and Zhou Yimeng, has the person who should be dealt with been dealt with, and has anyone been caught?" The woman asked softly.

"Reporting to Master, Youcai has already been dealt with. The servants put drugs that can cause hallucinations in Xiaocai's meals. Youcai had hallucinations, thinking that it was her home, so naturally she took the initiative to step over and lost her mind." Into the well. Just in case, the slaves have secretly ordered our people to find a way to dispose of Xiaocai’s body as soon as possible, and ordered people to spread the news that Xiaocai jumped into the well to follow Zhou Yimeng. If someone notices something that shouldn't be noticed, please rest assured, master."

The maid who was kneeling on the ground lowered her head after she finished speaking, waiting for the next order from the superior master.

The woman looked down at the subordinate kneeling on the ground, and put down the teacup in her hand, "You've done a good job in this matter, just don't let anyone get caught. From this incident, we can know that Shangguan Rou has already Started to act. From what I know about Shangguan Rou, it is not so easy for Shangguan Rou to give up. This time we have dealt with Youcai. Maybe Shangguan Rou will investigate us through other things. You'd better pay attention secretly. , Don’t let Shangguanrou find out anything, and order it down, now let’s let Shangguanrou go first, and let me settle down all the nails buried in Mingxia Palace, Shangguanrou’s Mingxia Palace is surrounded like It’s like an iron bucket, we put people in it with great difficulty, I don’t want to just fold it like this.”

"Yes, master, this servant will definitely give orders." The maid said and exited the palace.

The woman picked up the cup in her hand, and traced the pattern on the cup little by little, as if the pattern interested her very much. "Shangguanrou, Shangguanrou, I didn't expect you to be so unexpected. I knew you were not an ordinary person when I was drafted, but I didn't expect you to be buried so deep. I thought there was no interesting person in this palace. However, it seems that I was wrong. If I drive you into a place of eternal doom and let you watch me ascend to the throne, I don’t know how interesting it will be. I am looking forward to it. .”
