Chapter 187: Hidden in the Palace
"Steward Zhang, what this official wants to know, in the capital city, apart from these superficial people, who else has cooperation with Qian Da?"
"This ...... The villain doesn't know. ”
Shangguan Yuling frowned slightly, it seems that this Zhang Youfu does not cry when he sees the coffin.
"Steward Zhang, this official thinks that in order for you to suffer less crimes, this official will also save some time for torture, you still tell the truth, it is good for us."
It seems that Zhang Youfu is not at ease.
Also, being able to sit on the housekeeper of Qian Dayou's house, at least it shows that he can fool Qian Dayou.
Even if Qian Dayou deliberately guarded against him, waiting by Qian Dayou's side day and night, how could he not see any clues.
Even if he didn't know the true identity of the person who cooperated with Qian Da, he must know something else.
"My lord, this ...... Qian Dayou is indeed the same person has an ulterior secret, but what it is, the villain doesn't know, only knows that they will meet in the backyard of Qian Dayou's mansion on the fifteenth day of every month, the man is wearing a long black cloak, he can't see anything, and he leaves in a hurry after a few words of advice, but looking at Qian Dayou's appearance, he seems to be very respectful to that person. ”
Shangguan Yuling frowned slightly.
Listening to Zhang Youfu say this, the person wearing the long cloak should be a messenger of the person behind him, and the person who passed the message, Qian Dayou was so respectful to a person who passed the word, it can be seen that the status of the person behind it is not ordinary.
"I have carefully observed the man's cloak and boots, they are all excellent materials, even in the capital is rare, it should be a very noble family, that, the dark lines on the boots, like, like a thing in the palace......"
"Can you see clearly?" Shangguan Yuling frowned, if this matter was related to the palace, this case would not be so simple.
"Back to my lord, before the villain entered the Qian Mansion, he resold the utensils in the palace in the ghost market, and once sold a cloak with a crow blue cloud pattern, and the cloud pattern is like this, this kind of cloud pattern is not common outside the palace."
Nowadays, the palace has strict control over the entry and exit of objects, and the ghost market is also infiltrated and controlled by the people of the imperial court.
In this case, that person should also be a person under the hands of some master in the palace.
As for the master, he did not know.
"Since you have resold the items flowing out of the palace in the ghost market, then please ask Steward Zhang to help the official take a look, where did the letter paper come from?"
Xu Yun put the letter they turned out from Qian Dayou's salt village in front of Zhang Youfu, Zhang Youfu opened the letter and sniffed it, twisting the paper with both hands.
"Lord Hui, there are three pieces of paper here that should be from the palace, the surface of the letter paper is smooth, the pen will not be inky, the paper is also thick, and there is some ink fragrance, it is the best paper, and the other two are worse, but they are not bad, and they should also be commonly used by famous people."
"Steward Zhang has good eyesight." Shangguan Yinling nodded slightly.
That's right, Zhang Youfu does have this ability, and he can detect that they have mixed two other pieces of paper into it.
It can be seen that the person who has a lot of dealings with money is indeed a person in the palace.
But who should it be in the palace?
"Can you still remember the figure of the person who had a lot of dealings with money?"
"Back to my lord, I feel a few inches taller than Qian Dayou, slightly thinner than Qian Dayou, I shouldn't look burly, my tone is slightly different from that of ordinary men, I feel that I should be a bit and a father-in-law."
Father-in-law?
There are many fathers-in-law in this palace.
"That's right! That father-in-law has a wrench on his right index finger! ”
"What kind of wrench is it?"
"This ...... It seems to be an emerald green wrench with a slight white vein, which should not be a masterpiece, but it is also very valuable. ”
"I'll get here today, Xu Yun, take Steward Zhang down to settle down, if Steward Zhang remembers something, you can tell Xu Yun directly."
Xu Yun took Zhang Youfu down, and the remaining three people sat in the hall, frowning slightly.
"Listening to Zhang Youfu's description, the status of this father-in-law should not be small."
Lu Lidao.
Although she hadn't been in the palace for a long time, she also knew that there was a clear distinction between dignity and inferiority in this palace, and if she didn't have enough status, let alone the dark boots on her body, it would never be possible for the wrench to appear in the hands of a little eunuch.
In this palace, there are only a few fathers-in-law who can be called powerful, and the most important of them should be the chief manager Hai Gonggong who serves by the side of the saint, followed by the father-in-law Li who serves by the side of the queen mother, and then the father-in-law around the queen mother and several noble concubines.
She has been to the palace of the queen's mother, and the big eunuch next to her does not have the habit of wearing a wrench, not to mention the saint's side, and the remaining fathers-in-law, who still needs to be investigated.
"Now only the Advanced Palace has to investigate." Shangguan Yuling frowned slightly, he had a faint premonition that the identity of the person behind this eunuch was extraordinary, and they should have a tough battle to fight this time.
"But we have not been called by the Holy Lord, so we are not allowed to enter the palace if we have nothing to do."
They are all foreign ministers, and it would be a great sin to enter the palace without the call of the Holy Lord.
"I have a way." Lu Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Don't you remember?" I have a gold medal from the Holy Heaven. ”
"That's right, you are the storyteller of the queen's mother, and you can enter and leave the harem at will with the gold medal." Duan Lang's expression lit up, "Without further ado, let's enter the palace immediately!" ”
"No." Shangguan Yuling frowned and said, "Lu Li is just the storyteller of the queen's mother, if she wants to find out all the big eunuchs with status in the palace, it is a little difficult, and if she misses the stuffing, it will be a big crime." ”
They can't act so rashly.
"So what are we going to do?"
"Find a way to get them together."
All three frowned.
Is there any way to get all the mothers, including the Queen Mother, to gather?
Although the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, the entire palace gathers together to admire the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but there are still more than ten days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and they can't wait so long.
"Fortune telling."
The two of them looked up at Shangguan Yinling one after another.
"This ...... Will the Holy One believe the fortune teller? ”
"If you don't believe, then you want the Holy One to believe."
In this harem, only a fortune teller can let many maidens gather in one place, even if they can't gather in a few places, they can also go in and out of various palaces to explore feng shui, and then look at the big eunuchs around several niangniang one by one, so as to determine who is behind all this.
It's just that it is quite difficult to get the saint to believe in a folk feng shui sorcerer and enter the palace.
