Chapter 209 Death News
After this incident, Murong Qingfeng trusted Zi Yuan a lot, so Zi Yuan was transferred to the fourth prince's side to take care of the fourth prince.

About Concubine Zhen, although I can't forgive her in my heart, I still help her keep Murong Qingfeng a secret. After all, Concubine Zhen is also a poor person, and I still have so many years of friendship with her. If it's because I told the truth about Murong Qingfeng, I worry that she and the third prince will be separated forever.

However, after the fourth prince's smallpox incident, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will not continue to harm him too soon, so I have lived a few months of peace in Qingyun Palace, but I still remember the hatred between me and the Queen Mother. In my heart, I just waited for Xiao Quanzi to find out the result of the investigation, so that I could touch her hand just now!

Seeing the weather getting colder and colder, the cold winter day came again in a blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, after I came out of Qingyun Palace, I saw Xiao Quanzi, and I thought that the matter must have a result.

I was about to go out from here, but I saw Zi Yuan also came out.

"Is my sister going out?"

Hearing this, I smiled and said, "Yeah, it's not cold now. Your Majesty sent me to the House of Internal Affairs to bring back some new silk and satin, and make some new clothes for each of our third-class and above palace maids."

Hearing this, Zi Yuan had a look of joy.

"Sister, do you also have the role of a slave?"

Seeing her asking like this, I said: "Of course you have your share, but you are not taking care of the fourth prince at this time, and you want to go out?"

Seeing that I mentioned the fourth prince, Zi Yuan said: "I heard that there are early plum blossoms in the imperial garden, and the room of the fourth prince is full of maids and women, so deserted, so I want to cut some. Meizhi came back to meet the occasion."

I said two or three words with Zi Yuan and then left. Naturally, I really want to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but I have to meet Xiao Quanzi first!
At this moment, Xiao Quanzi was rubbing his hands and waiting for me. When I walked over, he had a cautious expression on his face.

"Girl, no one followed you when you came here just now?"

Hearing this, I frowned.

"Should not be, why are you so cautious today?"

Seeing that I asked, Xiao Quanzi told me the truth.

"A few months ago, the girl asked the slave to send someone to investigate whether there were any valuables sent to the Palace of Compassion and Peace. The slave followed suit, but the investigation on the slave's side did not go well. It seems that the queen mother found out. , one of them disappeared long ago, but this morning, he was found in a dry well near the Compassionate Ning Palace!"

When I heard such news, I immediately trembled in my heart.

"You mean, the queen mother sent someone to kill him?"

Hearing this, Xiao Quanzi nodded, "It should be, but the servant thought in his heart that the Palace of Compassion and Peace couldn't get in, so he thought of the queen mother's niece Xuegui, no, the servant asked someone to investigate Xuegui. It's been a month, nobleman, and finally something is wrong!"

I just asked Xiaoquanzi to help investigate something, but someone died, but what I didn't expect was that Xiaoquanzi didn't seem to care about that person's death at all. When I thought that they were all Yu Wenli's people, Even I feel very sorry for them, but Xiao Quanzi treats that matter so indifferently!

"Xiao Quanzi, you can tell me about Mrs. Xuegui later. Tell me first, who is that dead little eunuch?"

Hearing what I said, Xiao Quanzi's face paused, and then he said: "In the case of Miss, it's Xiao Hengzi from Compassionate Ning Palace."

Little Hengzi of the Compassionate Ning Palace?
I don't seem to have much impression of it. After all, since I entered the palace, I have always stayed by Murong Qingfeng's side to serve. Originally, Murong Qingfeng's visits to the Palace of Compassion and Peace were rare. Naturally, I had no chance to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace. up.

It's just that I was surprised how many people belonged to Yu Wenli in the palace, and why, so many people were placed in various parts of the palace!
But I don't care about Yu Wenli's other people, after all, Xiao Hengzi died because of me, a living life, I naturally care about it.

"Please trouble Eunuch Quan, Eunuch Xiaoheng died because of me, I also have some money here, can you help me send it out of the palace, and send it to Eunuch Xiaoheng's home, it can be regarded as making up for the guilt in my heart!"

Seeing that I handed him the money bag, Xiao Quanzi immediately knelt down in shock.

"Girl, this is not allowed. If the prince finds out, the servants will be punished!"

In the past, I only thought that Xiao Quanzi was just saved by Yu Wenli, but I never thought that he was so loyal to Yu Wenli, and he was even a little scared!
Seeing him like this, I immediately said: "The little Hengzi died for nothing, what will his family do?"

Thinking of this, I felt very sad. If I knew that someone would lose their life because of me, I would definitely change my plan from the very beginning. Even if the journey is more difficult, I will not implicate innocent people.

Seeing what I said, Xiao Quanzi said again: "Miss, don't worry, since we are all working with the lord, the lord has helped us arrange the lives of our families early on, although the servant is alone and has no family long ago, But others do, although Xiao Hengzi is dead now, his family will be taken care of by the prince!"

Hearing such words, I felt a little calmer in my heart, but now I heard these things from Xiao Quanzi's mouth, I found that there seemed to be a lot I didn't understand about Yu Wenli, even though I had been guessing , Does he have his own ambitions, but every time I see his gentle and domineering appearance, I always subconsciously forget those conjectures.

"You just said that you found something from Mr. Xuegui?"

Hearing this, Xiao Quanzi smiled and nodded immediately.

"Yes, girl. A few days ago, a palace lady died in Xuehan Palace. The nobleman Xue ordered someone to deal with it secretly, but the servants saw the body of the maiden. She must have had smallpox. The nobleman Xue may have died. Fearing that she would infect Xuehan Palace, they ordered someone to secretly execute her!"

Did he die from smallpox again, or did he live in Xue Guiren's palace?
Thinking of this, I gradually became clear about this matter in my heart. It seems that the smallpox-stained objects brought into the palace from outside may not be the only handkerchief in the mouth of the concubine Zhen. The flowers came to harm people that day, but they didn't want that thing to harm the maids in their own palace first.

But now that the palace lady is dead, I'm afraid Xue Guiren will also be afraid of Tianhua's things, and she will destroy the evidence!
"Girl, if the slave guesses correctly, the girl should want to find the murderer who murdered the fourth prince. From the slaves' point of view, the girl should not take any risks in this matter. The prince has already sent news. Recovering the wolf clan and resolving the matter of fiefdom, as long as the girl waits for the prince to come back, the prince will definitely help the girl to deal with these matters!"

Suddenly I heard the news about Yu Wenli from Xiao Quanzi, I was very happy, and immediately said: "Recover the wolf clan? Isn't it the destruction of the wolf clan?"

Seeing me asking this question, Xiao Quanzi smiled slightly and said: "The wolf clan is a fierce tribe, the prince certainly cannot bear to destroy them, if they can be recovered, the prince will choose to recover them!"

Hearing this, I nodded slightly, which made sense.

"Forget it, you should stop the people under your command about my affairs. After the death of Xiao Hengzi, the Compassionate Ning Palace will be more vigilant. Xuegui and I don't have much hatred, and she is a life-saving person." I'm afraid that the thing we want to find has already been destroyed by her!"

Seeing what I said, Xiao Quanzi just opened his mouth and said: "The slave will obey the girl's order!"

"Squeak..."

Suddenly, we heard the sound of a branch being trampled on the ground, and Xiao Quanzi and I looked very different immediately.

"who?"

I saw Xiao Quanzi was so startled that he turned his head away immediately, and I looked over with him, but we didn't see anything.

It's just that my heart was flustered in this room, and after seeing Xiao Quanzi looked carefully at no one, he said to me: "I think it's a mouse or a wild cat, girl, don't panic, go back to Qingyun Palace for now. , the slave will go to Haosheng to check it later!"
