Chapter 32 Management
Gu Xiyue turned to Ye Wushang and analyzed, "Because your illness has improved a bit, my lord, the people behind you have changed the method of prescribing the medicine."

"I must have seen that Gui Ling's incident was exposed, so I thought about poisoning it directly. If the prince really drank the medicine, I'm afraid no one in the mansion will be able to escape."

"I don't know who is so vicious and wants to directly kill the prince."

Hearing what Gu Xiyue said was so serious, Ye Wushang couldn't help being afraid.

He also raised a serious face, "Only by handing this matter over to the princess for investigation can the king be at ease."

"I must have missed the truth."

Even if the person behind him cannot be exposed, the nails he put in the mansion must be pulled out.

If Ye Wushang was really poisoned to death, she, the princess in charge of the palace, would not be able to avoid responsibility.

At that time, everyone in the mansion will be buried with him, and no one will know who the murderer is behind the scenes. At that time, the murderer will be the biggest winner.

This matter is difficult to say, and it is not easy to say simple.

The first thing Gu Xiyue did was ask the housekeeper for questioning, but the housekeeper didn't know anything about it.

Even the housekeeper who has managed the palace for many years doesn't know, so one can imagine how deep the people behind it are hiding.

After several days of investigation, nothing was found in the end.

Finally, Gu Xiyue planned to implement a further plan.

She asked the housekeeper to gather all the servants in the mansion, and finally grouped them one by one.

"I summoned you today, the purpose of this princess is to better manage the whole house."

"Before this princess said, if anyone's hands and feet are not clean, they will have their hands and feet broken."

"But some of you still know your mistakes and made mistakes. This time, this princess came up with a new method."

These servants looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what Gu Xiyue was talking about.

On the contrary, there were a few people who showed guilt, obviously doing a lot of wrong things behind Gu Xiyue's back.

As the saying goes, where there is light, there is darkness. It is impossible for all the people in such a large palace to have clean hands and feet.

There must be someone doing something wrong behind the master's back.

Gu Xiyue didn't want to control it at first, because it is more likely to cause accidents if it is too strict.

If it's just a trivial matter, she would turn a blind eye and close her eyes, but this time, because of Ye Wushang's matter, she had to do it in the name of cleaning up the palace.

"Today, the Japanese Palace has specially divided you into groups, allowing you to keep an eye on each other. If someone in your group makes a mistake, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver for reporting."

"As long as you make a mistake, there will be money for reporting. You should carefully consider whether you want to earn this money."

As soon as these words came out, there was a rustling sound from below, hearing that there were ten taels of silver, these servants were a little excited.

Ten taels of silver is not a small amount to them, but the princess is really generous.

Gu Xiyue made a look at the butler, and then left with Su Tao.

When Gu Xiyue left, the butler stood up and coughed.

All the servants turned their attention to him.

"If you have any brains, you should know how easy it is to get these ten taels of silver. This is an opportunity given to you by the princess, and you all have to seize it."

"If you don't dare to report to the princess, you can come to me and say the same."

After all, he is the butler who has managed the palace for many years, and what he said made the servants more convinced.

In the next few days, no one reported it, and the butler was even more anxious than Gu Xiyue.

"Princess, is it really useful? The servant hasn't received any reports yet."

Gu Xiyue was pinching fish food to feed the little goldfish, making teasing sounds from time to time.

"Don't worry, there are not a few people who are greedy for money. This time, it's a matter of taking money for nothing. Can they let this opportunity go?"

Just when the butler was about to say something, a trembling servant was led in by Su Tao.

Seeing that Gu Xiyue and the housekeeper were both there, the servant immediately knelt on the ground and saluted with his face on the ground.

"The slave pays his respects to the princess."

Su Tao stepped forward and whispered something in Gu Xiyue's ear.

Look, isn't this fish coming?
Gu Xiyue sat on the stone bench and picked up a teacup and asked, "What do you want to do with this princess?"

The servant gritted his teeth and said, "The slave reported that the Shuanzi who was in the same group as me had unclean hands and feet, and often secretly stole things from the mansion and sold them."

"embolus?"

The housekeeper hurriedly said, "Slaves are influential. That kid is usually glib and clever. If his hands and feet are really dirty, he can hide it if he wants to."

"Okay, my princess knows."

Gu Xiyue directed to the housekeeper, "Go and verify, if it is true as he said, then give him ten taels of silver."

Then she looked at the servant and said, "My concubine always keeps her word."

Soon the embolism was found to be stolen, and the servant was even more happy when he got ten taels of silver.

Because of this beginning, there were many reports later, and Gu Xiyue asked the housekeeper to verify that the money had been paid.

Ye Wushang heard what Gu Xiyue had done, and instantly understood what he wanted to do.

I only heard Ye Wushang applaud, "She has a solution to this matter, and gave her the right to manage the palace. This king really did nothing wrong."

Obviously Ye Wushang admired what Gu Xiyue did.

Soon Gu Xiyue finally got the report she wanted.

An old nanny said to Gu Xiyue mysteriously, "Princess, the servants who are in the same group as the old slave recently often don't know who to send letters to. The old slave looks very suspicious."

"If this person forms a party with the villain for personal gain, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the prince and concubine."

Originally, this old nanny's knowledge was simply exaggerated. After all, the communication is not only with villains, but also with relatives.

Gu Xiyue asked strangely, "Are you sure you're not communicating with his relatives?"

The old mother hurriedly shook her head and said, "The old slave glanced at it quietly, and there is no word for father and mother in the letter, although the old slave doesn't know a few words."

"But this old slave can confirm that his letter is definitely not for his family."

Unexpectedly, this old nanny still has the problem of peeking, she really does anything for ten taels of silver.

Gu Xiyue slightly raised her eyebrows and looked at the butler at the side, only to see that the butler retreated knowingly.

It's a pity that he came back soon and shook his head, then whispered a few words in Gu Xiyue's ear.

That servant was not communicating with the villain, he was writing a love letter to his lover in the brothel.

Gu Xiyue was a little disappointed, but still gave the man a board, and then gave the old mother ten taels of silver.

It is also a big scandal that the servants of the palace and the women in the brothel secretly exchanged love. If it happens, it will only tarnish the reputation of the palace.

When the servants heard that the report could be successful, they all paid more attention to the people around them.

Seeing more and more people reporting correspondence, the housekeeper was a little helpless.

He said worriedly to Gu Xiyue, "The number of people who report these days is increasing, but the useful news is ignorant."

"It's really difficult."

Gu Xiyue hurriedly reassured, "This matter cannot be rushed. I use the name of liquidating the servants of the palace to find out the villain behind it. If I am too eager, I may scare the snake."

"You just need to keep an eye on the servants who corresponded. The crime of stealing is confirmed. Now it's time to find out the nails that the people behind the scenes planted in the mansion."

The butler nodded after listening, "I understand that I will not disappoint the princess' orders."
