Doting on concubines and destroying wives?Come back and spread your family's ashes

Chapter 362 Already planned

Ignoring Chaoyang, Lin Jinglan and Yaoguang took Aunt Mei Fang directly to find Xiao Dezi and the person who wet the prince's clothes.

"Prince Concubine, what on earth did you say to Concubine Yu, and why did she leave immediately."

While walking on the road, Aunt Mei Fang asked Lin Jinglan curiously.

"It's just a few words that make her worry that she will lose His Majesty's favor."

Lin Jinglan had an intuition in her heart that Chaoyang was likely to be unfavorable to the Queen in the future.

This princess of the defeated country, who is not looked down upon by others, may be a disaster.

If the emperor's favorite concubine wants to cause trouble, what she does will definitely be detrimental to Dachu.

Lin Jinglan definitely didn't want to see something like this happen.

"The Crown Princess is still smart."

Aunt Mei Fang sincerely praised Lin Jinglan. No wonder the queen liked Lin Jinglan so much.

Lin Jinglan just smiled, but also felt a little strange about Aunt Mei Fang's words.

She also found that the queen seemed to like herself very much, even more than Princess Jin.

And Lin Jinglan had a vague feeling that the Queen seemed to be more satisfied than liked her.

Are you satisfied that you are worthy of Gu Junheng?

Lin Jinglan suddenly had such an idea.

After that, the few people stopped talking and went to look for those two people first.

"Yu'er suddenly came out of the palace yesterday. She said that her old mother was seriously ill and asked for leave from the aunt in charge, so she got a badge and left the palace."

Yu'er was the maid who wetted the prince's clothes.

It would be a bit too coincidental to leave at this time.

Even Aunt Mei Fang felt something was wrong.

"You tell me clearly where she lives."

Lin Jinglan asked in a deep voice.

"Yao Guang, you take people to look for Yu'er and see if you can make it in time or find some clues. I'll go find Xiao Dezi."

Without any hesitation, Lin Jinglan said something to Yaoguang, got up and went to where the chamberlain lived.

Yaoguang also quickly agreed and headed out of the palace.

Then he left with several of his men from the Dingbei Hou Mansion.

When Aunt Mei Fang brought Lin Jinglan to the courtyard where the servants lived, they saw many people gathered together, as if something had happened.

"What happened? Go and call Xiao Dezi out."

Aunt Mei Fang had a high status in the harem, so when she saw these people, she sternly scolded them.

With a crash, the crowd dispersed and the chatter stopped.

Lin Jinglan and Mei Fang also saw clearly what happened.

"Aunt Mei Fang, Xiao Dezi fetched water to wash his face this morning, but unexpectedly he fell into the water. We just fished him out, but he seemed to have no breath."

An older eunuch said something to Mei Fang, with a look of sadness on his face.

"died."

Lin Jinglan's face darkened again. No one would believe such a coincidental timing if it was not intentional.

Then he got closer, passed through the crowd, and saw the figure lying on the ground.

He stretched out his hand to check his breath and found that he was indeed dead.

And it is true that he fell into the water and died, but whether he jumped by himself or was pushed down is unknown.

"Prince Princess, what should we do now? One of them goes home, the other dies, and we can't find anyone." Mei Fang was also a little anxious.

After all, this matter was related to the prince's reputation. She didn't want the prince to be burdened with such infamy all the time, and wanted to give him justice as soon as possible.

"Go home. I'm afraid the palace maid named Yu'er is already dead by now."

Lin Jinglan checked Xiao Dezi's body and found nothing unusual. He couldn't find anything at all.

"Take me to where he lives and see if any of you are friends with Xiao Dezi and come forward to answer some questions for me. I will reward you generously."

Lin Jinglan stood up, looked at the people in the circle, and said calmly.

Perhaps it was the last sentence of "big reward" that attracted the rest of the people.

An eighteen or nineteen-year-old chamberlain stood up cautiously.

"Prince Princess, my relationship with Xiao Dezi is quite good. I will take you to find Xiao Dezi's residence."

He followed the waiter directly into a large shop.

A dozen or so of the low-status chamberlains sleep together.

When there was no one else around, the chamberlain took Lin Jinglan to find Xiao Dezi's bed and a cabinet beside the bed.

"Prince Princess, this is Xiao Dezi's bed and his cabinet. All his things should be here."

As soon as Lin Jinglan raised her hand, Zi Ling, who was following him, stepped forward to search.

There weren't many strange things on the bed, but a box was found in the cabinet.

Opening the box, there was a lot of silver and a few ingots of gold inside.

The amount of these things is not small, definitely not money that a chamberlain can earn.

"Why does Xiao Dezi have so much money?"

The chamberlain was also surprised. They were all eunuchs, and they were the lowest class. They didn't have much money to save at all.

Xiao Dezi's money must have come from unknown sources.

"You're on good terms with Xiao Dezi. Think about it and see if there's anything wrong with him recently."

Lin Jinglan pointed to the box.

"If your words are of any use, these are yours."

With so much money, the waiter's eyes suddenly widened, and then his eyes flashed with intense joy.

If you have this money, providing for yourself in old age is basically not a big problem.

But he also knew that he had to say something useful before Lin Jinglan would give him the money.

"Think carefully, don't worry."

Lin Jinglan's tone was a little gentler, fearing that the little eunuch would feel scared and forget something.

"Yes, yes, I remembered it. A few days ago, Xiao Dezi seemed to be getting closer to a guard outside the palace. He always said something behind his back. The day before Queen Qianqiu's visit, he also He sneaked out once in the middle of the night, and that time I got up and saw him going to see the guard."

Afterwards, he asked Xiao Dezi why he wanted to see the guard, but Xiao Dezi said that the guard was a fellow villager of his and asked him about some things about his hometown.

"That time Xiao Dezi came back with a baggage. He said it was brought to him by his family, but who knew it turned out to be money."

He actually remembered all these things.

Lin Jinglan's brows gradually widened. It seemed that all she needed to do was find this guard.

"Can you recognize the identity of this guard? As long as you can help me find this guard, I will give you all these things. I will also ask the Queen for a favor on your behalf and let you out of the palace."

If you have money, you can leave the palace. This temptation is too great.
