When Wei Ziying came out of Lei's house, it was already the moonlight above the willow trees.
He looked up in the direction of the palace and made a decision in his mind.
The next day, a letter from the second wife of the Wei family was delivered to Wei Qinglin.
Wen Qingzhu sent someone over early this morning to ask her to come to Huaqing Palace.
The two were talking about Wen Mingxuan, and the letter was sent through Jasmine.
When Wei Qinglin saw the letter, his heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but look up.
Wen Qingzhu smiled at her: "It's okay, you take a look first."
Wei Qinglin's hands were shaking a little, and he opened the letter and read it quickly.
Without waiting for her reply, Wen Qingzhu looked at the letter in her hand and said, "Let me guess, what is written in this letter?"
With a roll of his eyes, Wen Qingzhu looked into Wei Qinglin's eyes: "It's the Wei family asking you to go back, right?"
"Yes." Wei Qinglin nodded, with a little fear in his eyes, and asked uneasily, "I have followed brother Mingxuan's instructions. The emperor shouldn't notice anything, right?"
Wen Qingzhu stood up and walked to her, comforting her: "If the emperor insists on not letting you in, he may think too much, but he still lets you in in the end, then at least he still treats you as a friend in his heart."
"Really?" Wei Qinglin felt frightened when he recalled that day.
When she was in Jinzhou, she discovered Jiang Yuanhan's true side. He was never the gentle and kind-hearted person he appeared to be.
Wei Qinglin was still frightened by the drama he performed in Qianyuan Palace yesterday, always feeling that he had exposed some flaws.
Seeing that she still couldn't calm down, Wen Qingzhu said, "If you are so afraid of the emperor, just stay at home for a few more days in the name of your grandmother, and leave the affairs of the harem directly to Fu Jue."
"But Sister Fu Jue's body is not fully recovered yet." Wei Qinglin thought of Fu Jue, feeling guilty and feeling inappropriate.
Wen Qingzhu looked up at the door and reminded her: "The Wei family is still waiting. Fu Jue is in good health and you have taken care of the harem in order. There will be no big problems at the moment."
Wei Qinglin had no choice but to stand up, follow her line of sight and look outside, and finally nodded.
Before leaving, Wen Qingzhu accompanied her to Hanyuan Hall where Fu Jue lived.
When Fu Jue heard that they were coming, he immediately got up and dressed.
Unexpectedly, they came in directly. Fu Jue, who had just put on his clothes, stood up immediately: "Princess, Miss Wei."
"You don't have to go to such trouble. Linlin came here today to say goodbye." Wen Qingzhu raised his hand, went into the inner room, and asked Fu Jue to sit down.
After hearing what she said, Fu Jue was startled: "Why are you leaving?"
Wen Qingzhu didn't explain much. He just said that Wei Qinglin's grandma was unwell and missed her granddaughter.
After Wei Qinglin leaves, she will be married to manage the affairs of the harem.
It's not that Fu Jue wasn't smart before, but she had never encountered such a situation in the palace in the Fu family.
After suffering several losses, I gradually understood the twists and turns inside.
Understanding what Wen Qingzhu meant, Fu Jue nodded in agreement.
But in the end, I was still a little worried: "Pei Bin has a higher status than me, is there any problem with her?"
"Don't worry, she can't make trouble now." Wen Qingzhu comforted her.
But thinking about his next plan, he couldn't help but add: "But if there is a storm, it won't affect you."
Fu Jue was startled and opened his mouth to say something, but when Wen Qingzhu smiled faintly, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
As soon as the matters here were explained, Wei Qinglin was taken out of the palace by the Wei family.
Wen Qingzhu returned to Huaqing Palace and saw Bai Di waiting for her in the main hall.
He walked in and asked, "Do you have any idea about what's going on over there?"
Bai Di bowed and saluted: "Reporting to the princess, Eunuch Zheng was the person brought in by Empress Zheng earlier. His status in the palace is second only to Eunuch Fang. There were some clues in the secret investigation, but this matter involves the Zheng family..."
"Is the Zheng family involved?" Wen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes.
Bai Di lowered his head and became more respectful: "Slave and Master Hei have found out that the corpse-eating bugs are inseparable from Eunuch Zheng. There is definite evidence that the power behind Eunuch Zheng has always been the Zheng family."
Wen Qingzhu fell into silence. Why did this matter involve the Zheng family
In this case, she needs to investigate the Zheng family.
But ever since Jiang Yuansheng was demoted to a commoner and left the capital, the Zheng family has been in a state of secrecy, relinquishing important positions and taking on a few idle positions.
Is it really the Zheng family
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and looked at Bai Di: "You have investigated the Zheng family, don't you dare to investigate further?"
"Yes. The Zheng family is different from other aristocratic families. The slave has a weak eye. Master Hei sent people to test it twice. The Zheng family soon discovered the clues. They didn't dare to make it too obvious. This slave came to ask the princess for instructions."
At this point, Wen Qingzhu was a little confused. With Hei Jiren's ability, how could he be discovered by the Zheng family so quickly
She reminded Hei Jiren last time that he had internal problems in the Criminal Punishment Department.
Hasn't he found out the spies yet
After a long silence, Wen Qingzhu asked Bai Di to step back and ordered someone to invite Hei Jiren over.
But he didn't want to be told that Hei Jiren was called to Qianyuan Palace by the emperor.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the eunuch who came back to report the news quietly without saying a word.
An eerie silence spread in the room. The eunuch kneeling on the ground slowly quickened his breathing and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.
When the first drop of sweat fell on the marble slab, Wen Qingzhu finally said: "Go to the gate of Qianyuan Palace and wait for Hei Jiren to come out and ask him to come see me immediately."
After the eunuch left, Lu Tao looked in the direction of Qianyuan Palace and asked, "Is Master Hei probably not coming back?"
"It doesn't matter if I don't come back. It seems I probably know who infiltrated the Shenxing Division." Wen Qingzhu stood up slowly, his tone quite emotional.
Feeling happy and complicated at the same time, Yuanhan finally looked like an emperor.
If the Division of Punishment cannot be used by him, he will naturally try his best to use it, otherwise there is no need to exist there.
Wen Qingzhu took Lu Tao with him, quietly left the palace, and visited the Zheng family.
When the Zheng family saw her coming, they didn't say anything and took her directly to Mrs. Zheng's yard.
Looking at the old man leaning on the wicker chair, Wen Qingzhu bowed and said, "I have met Mrs. Zheng."
The old man on the wicker chair slowly opened his eyes and saw her saluting. He just smiled and said, "Princess, there is no need to be too polite. Little Zhengzi's matter will eventually be resolved."
"Old Madam knows about Eunuch Zheng?!" Wen Qingzhu didn't expect Madam Zheng to be so direct.
Mrs. Zheng smiled, took the cattail leaf fan from the maid's hand, and then asked all the waiters to leave.
Then she said: "Hei Jiren has come here twice. If I didn't know about it, my life would have been in vain all these years."
Mrs. Zheng pointed to the waiter next to her again: "Do it first. Some things cannot be explained clearly in a few words. Little Zheng did this unkindly, but his nature is not bad, he was just taken advantage of. .”
"Not bad in nature? Are you being taken advantage of? Mrs. Zheng's words are too light. The emperor almost died!" Wen Qingzhu showed displeasure.
Mrs. Zheng suddenly laughed heartily, stopped for a long time, looked into Wen Qingzhu's eyes and asked: "The princess is such a smart person, is it true that she didn't notice it at all?"
Aware? Wen Qingzhu began to think about what happened before and after the enthronement ceremony.
Suddenly, she remembered the information about Qimo Che reported by Hei Jiren.
It was said that Qi Mo was extremely cautious.
Wen Qingzhu suddenly understood and looked at Mrs. Zheng in disbelief: "Did you put the powder on Hu Jian's body to suppress the corpse-eating insects on purpose?"
"Princess is indeed smart." Mrs. Zheng suddenly sighed with emotion, looking at Wen Qingzhu as if looking at another person.
She didn't like this feeling.
However, Mrs. Zheng did not let her wait too long, and directly talked about a past incident: "In the past twenty years, corpse-eating bugs were still common, but these bugs evolved too fast and soon caused a lot of harm to humans and animals. Later, Dr. Zhong passed by and developed a powder to kill the corpse-eating insects. In less than a year, the corpse-eating insects were almost extinct in the Xiongnu, and the number of people who knew about it gradually decreased."
"Doctor Zhong? It's him again!" Wen Qingzhu discovered that this man's footprints were all over the world.
He has friendships with all kinds of people.
But why doesn't he want to see him
Madam Zheng looked at her and her smile slowly deepened. She knew some things, but she couldn't say them.
At least it's not the time yet.
"Princess, there is no need to ask more. The focus this time is not Dr. Zhong, but the Huns. Little Zhengzi has a brother-in-law who is doing freight transportation between the north and the south. Madam will know after careful investigation that the corpse-eating insect matter, based on little Zhengzi's Personality, he really doesn’t dare.”
Wen Qingzhu bowed and thanked her, then turned and left the Zheng family.
When passing by the front yard, I saw two familiar figures on the other side of the moon gate from a distance.
She was familiar with both a man and a woman.
Lu Tao looked over there and said in surprise: "That's not—"
"Let's go!" Wen Qingzhu immediately looked away, interrupted her, and quickly left the Zheng family.
As soon as their figures were revealed, the men and women inside the Moon Gate turned around at the same time.
The woman asked worriedly: "The old lady believes in Eunuch Zheng too much. What should I do if she knows the truth and can't bear it for a while?"
The man held her hand tightly: "Ru'er, don't worry about these things. My eldest brother and I will handle this matter. Mom has stayed at the border for too long. She doesn't know that people's hearts will change."
"Yeah." The woman nodded and looked in the direction of the door again.
Wen Qingzhu can definitely investigate clearly.
After leaving the Zheng family, Wen Qingzhu always felt that something was wrong.
Why does Mrs. Zheng trust Eunuch Zheng so much
And Zheng Xu and He Wenru, are they together
Wen Qingzhu was naturally happy that they were together, but why did they appear in the capital
This is totally unreasonable!
Based on Wen Qingzhu's understanding of Zheng Xu, he would rush back only if it was a matter of life and death for the Zheng family.
so-
Wen Qingzhu suddenly raised his head and told the driver outside: "Turn around! Go to Dali Temple!"
As the regent princess, no one dared to stop her.
Wen Qingzhu was now able to access places that were once forbidden to her.
The story of Hu Jian being bitten by a corpse-eating bug but surviving has been recorded by Dali Temple.
Wen Qingzhu flipped through it carefully, and found that the inn was still blocked.
Many of the evidences were preserved, and Wen Qingzhu looked at them all the way.
Finally, I saw a suspicious point. The owner of this inn did not fund it alone.
There is also a man named Wang who has invested in the company.
Wen Qingzhu immediately asked Lu Tao to go out and investigate.
During the time she was waiting, Wen Qingzhu did not have a moment of leisure.
Start looking at all the murder disputes between businessmen in Beijing.
Any case that has a huge impact and involves a murder will be recorded by Dali Temple.
As Wen Qingzhu watched, a shadow appeared in front of him.
When I looked up, it was Su Huo.
"Master Su was released by the emperor?" Wen Qingzhu confirmed the visitor and looked at the file again.
Su Huo reached out and flipped through the files on the table, and couldn't help but ask: "Is it related to the Huns spies?"
Wen Qingzhu replied yes.
Seeing how busy she was, Su Huo also moved his chair out and started watching with her.
After about an hour, Lu Tao hurried back.
"Princess! We found out! That boss Wang is Eunuch Zheng's brother-in-law!"
Wen Qingzhu stood up suddenly: "Are you sure? Eunuch Zheng really has a sister? That boss Wang's wife is Eunuch Zheng's sister?"
