Chapter 170 The Three Mansions
However, after his investigation, he found that there were only one or two eunuchs in the palace who were ordered by the harem empress to go out of the palace to buy.

None of the other eunuchs had been out of the palace.

The palace is heavily guarded, and it is not easy for eunuchs to leave the palace without a warrant.

Not to mention the situation of going out several times as soon as you leave the palace.

So it can basically be confirmed that the eunuchs that Xiao Huanghua saw sent the children's corpses to the mountains to dig up and bury them were not from the palace, but were raised by someone outside the palace!
"This is quite strange. It is a last resort for a man to enter the palace cleanse, why are there still men willing to cleanse outside the palace?

And from what Tu'er said, there were five or six eunuchs in her dream!
It seems that the people behind the scenes either want to usurp the throne or have special hobbies! "

What the emperor said was so meaningful.

The prince cupped his hands, "Father is right, now we can confirm that there are eunuchs outside the palace, and they are people who treat eunuchs as servants, so we only need to find people who have eunuchs at home.

It is basically certain, after all, not many people have such a habit. "

"Well, so let's look for houses with eunuchs in their homes. Regardless of whether there are eunuchs in the homes of the common people, this time we should first search the homes of these ministers in the capital."

After the emperor finished speaking, he spoke to the prince very simply.

"...It's still early, Prince, take your guards to search the mansions of those ministers, and pay attention to see if there are any eunuchs."

The crown prince cupped his hands, "Yes, I obey! But father, do I need to take my sister with me?"

For some reason, the prince felt that if Bai Tutu went with him, it would be more likely to find the real culprit behind the scenes!
But this time, the emperor refused.

"You and Shi Yan can just take the guards this time. Tu'er should be quite tired, so don't wake her up."

Prince: .
He should be the one who feels tired.

He has been holding that little girl all morning!
Arms are sore!

How could the little girl sleep? !
Is it really because this is the father's preference? !
The prince slandered in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to agree.

The crown prince had the emperor's oral order and directly took Shi Yan and the secret guards to search the mansions of the ministers in the capital.

There are obvious differences between eunuchs and normal men in appearance.

Even if they are disguised, they can still be identified.

The prince was very confident that there should be only one family of officials in the mansion raising eunuchs.

But he and Shi Yan searched from noon until nightfall, and suddenly found that there were more than one eunuch officials in the mansion!
After a quick look, there are at least three officials who have eunuch servants in their mansions!
After the prince returned to the palace and told the emperor the news, even the emperor was quite surprised.

In the emperor's perception, eunuchs were used as servants in the mansion, either because they had special hobbies, or because they were ambitious, and wanted to try what it was like to be served by eunuchs!

After all, the only place where eunuchs are used to serve people is the palace!
One of the three officials has a hobby, so the other two must be ambitious!

A dark light flashed in the emperor's eyes.

"Prince, which three officials are they?"

The crown prince arched his hands, "Reporting to the emperor, he is the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, the Prime Minister and the Minister of the Ministry of War."

"Oh? There's actually a prime minister among them!"
