Chapter 19 Investigation
"The princess doesn't blame me for beating mandarin ducks." Hearing what Princess Qingyun said, Lu Hanzhi also has a better impression of her. It's unlucky to encounter such a thing, but if you can't get the point by entanglement inside, it's okay People who refuse to listen to advice, no matter how kind they are, they have to stay away.

"Sister Lu called me Qingyun." Princess Qingyun originally asked about Lu Hanzhi out of sympathy, but now because of this incident, she became close to her, and when she heard Lu Hanzhi's words, she laughed at herself. "Sister Lu, don't make fun of me. I only met Mr. Zhou twice, but it was just the words of the matchmaker at the order of my parents."

This is the normal situation of getting married at this time. Like the brothers and sisters of the Zhou family, it is a rare situation for people who have a marriage contract and have a private life with someone.There is no communication before marriage, and there is no relationship. It is inevitable that you will gradually become familiar with and establish a relationship after marriage.

Lu Hanzhi comforted Princess Qingyun for a while, and seeing that she was a little more happy, they left the pavilion together. They came to congratulate and attend a banquet today, so how could they find a place to stay for a day.

It was already evening after returning from the palace. Bi Cao waited on Lu Hanzhi to change into homely clothes before Bi He came up to him and said, "Grandma, I checked everything."

"How?" Lu Hanzhi raised his eyes and saw the set of rabbit decorations and a greased paper bag on the tray.Bihe didn't touch the oiled paper bag, just put the tray on the table, pointed to the hollow rabbit, and said: "The contents inside have been taken out and sealed in the oiled paper bag, the pharmacist checked carefully, although it is not Throat-sealing poison, however, will gradually disperse in the air, and inhaling too much can cause illness or even death."

Lu Hanzhi's eyes dimmed. It doesn't matter if it's not the throat-sealing poison, or even whether the contents inside can be dispersed into the air. As long as something is wrong, you can find her here.It doesn't matter whether she has a motive to harm others, she cannot escape responsibility for sending things out of her hands, and if someone guides them, the entire Ningguo Palace will be implicated.

Bi He also thought of this, and couldn't help being angry and anxious, and said: "Grandma, who is trying to harm Grandma? This is too vicious!"

Lu Hanzhi picked up the little rabbit and looked at it. She wasn't worried about the danger. The things must have been cleaned up after they were delivered to her. However, looking at this set of ornaments right now, she felt uncomfortable, "Put these away first, take them out. Since the things that come out are poisonous, you should deal with them after you ask. As for who did it, most of them came for the Crown Princess and the Duke’s Mansion, but I just married here not long ago, so it’s best to do it.”

Lu Hanzhi has been married to Cheng's family for less than half a year. Although Cheng Yuan has been sorted out, most of the people around her are brought from Lu's family.There is no other reason. Lu Hanzhi has not established a firm foothold when he married into the Cheng family. It is not easy to drive anyone out casually, but the people in Chengyuan, let alone Lu Hanzhi, are probably not familiar with Cheng Junze. They don't know the background and ability. Of course, Lu Hanzhi would not reuse anyone casually, so he had to watch slowly.

Thinking of this, Lu Hanzhi said again: "But I checked, who has touched this set of ornaments?"

"Only people above the second class can enter this room. Apart from slaves and Bicao, there are also Zhuqing, Qiuchan, Lianzi and Xiaowen. Zhuqing and Lianzi were brought by the girl. The wife checked carefully before the girl got married. They should be There is no problem, Qiu Chan was given by his wife before the eldest son got married, she was originally from the wife's courtyard, and Xiaowen has been working in Chengyuan, so she will be assigned second class when her qualifications are up." Bihe was careful, and Lu Hanzhi ordered it down , although it is not possible to check with great fanfare, but by the way, check the people in the yard again.

"Grandma ordered the servant and Bi Cao to prepare this box, and the two slaves handled it. Besides, Bi Cao checked it yesterday morning, so the servant checked the people who entered the house yesterday." Bi He briefly explained, Then I elaborated on what I found out, "Zhuqing was cleaning the house yesterday. After cleaning the house in the morning, she stayed in the side room and watched the fire. The servant girl asked her, saying that both Qiuchan and Lianzi had entered the house yesterday, and they were just doing things. Did not enter the inner room, and Xiaowen had a rest yesterday and did not come over."

The maids have to take turns to watch the night, and they can rest the day after the night watch. After Xiaowen handed over to Lianzi Zhuqing yesterday morning, she went back to rest.Lu Hanzhi knew this rule, nodded to Bihe to continue, and only heard her say, "It's just that when I asked the little maid who was working outside, I learned from Xing'er and Liu'er that they saw Xiaowen from When I came out from the back of the house, when I asked about it, I said that she lost her earring, so I went to look for it."

Zhuqing has been with Lu Hanzhi for nearly three years, and her background is reliable and her personality is stable. Bihe intends to train her when she is almost old, so there should be no problem with what Zhuqing said.But no one entered the main entrance, and it doesn't mean that no one sneaked in through the window, and it's not credible to say that they came here specifically to find an earring.

As the residence of the prince, Cheng Garden is relatively independent compared to other courtyards, and there is a side door leading to the outside of the house. Therefore, there is no garden at the back of the house. Except for the cleaning maids, no one goes to the back of the house. And Xiaowen, a second-class maid, doesn't have to do cleaning work. What is she doing behind the house, so that she loses her earrings?
"Grandma, do you want to ask Xiaowen to come over and ask?" Bihe got Lu Hanzhi's order and has been paying attention to the people in Chengyuan, especially Qiuchan and Xiaowen who are the second-class maids.Qiu Chan was given by his wife. As long as she doesn't make mistakes, her position as a second-class maid is secure, and Qiu Chan herself is also capable. From any aspect, it is unlikely that she will betray Cheng Yuan.Xiaowen is different. She has been working in Chengyuan since entering the mansion. Although she is not very old, she has been in Chengyuan for more than six years. It stands to reason that she is familiar with everything in Chengyuan, but after observation, Xiaowen's hands and feet are slow. He doesn't seem very clever, but he hasn't made any mistakes, and he will be matched with someone in the future.

"She asked for leave today?" Xiaowen had a rest yesterday, and she should have something to do today, but Lu Hanzhi thought about it, and she didn't see Xiaowen after she came back, and she didn't seem to see her before she went out in the morning.

"..." Bihe was stunned for a moment. She didn't enter the palace with Lu Hanzhi, but she was busy collecting information all day, so she didn't pay attention to this, so Bicao stood by and replied: "I asked for leave in the morning, and said yes Her mother is sick, she wants to go back and see, but she hasn't come back yet!"

Lu Hanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Find someone to visit her house."
