After Qin Tai knew about Zhu Yijun, he analyzed the problems here. First, Emperor Longqing may have been fortunate with one or a group of women without the knowledge of outsiders.

Among them, the person presiding over this matter is very likely to be the current celebrant eunuch Meng Chong. Second, this woman or these women are not palace maids or concubines in the palace, but are most likely folk women outside.

Third, it is very likely that this or these women have already been pregnant, and have even given birth to a child for Emperor Longqing.

Moreover, the woman is missing, and outsiders cannot contact and know the whereabouts of this woman. Fourth, this woman does not live in the palace, and it is very likely that she has another identity to protect.

Fifth, if this woman is connected to a certain official, or even a certain faction, this group of officials will become the woman's backing.

Sixth, this woman or woman has a certain amount of power behind the palace. They once wanted to frame the current crown prince Zhu Yijun.

However, they seem to disagree, some people want the prince Zhu Yijun to die, and some people don't want Zhu Yijun to die immediately.

Therefore, Qin Tai felt that these people were not a group of people, but two or even several organizations acting together.

Not only are they not in agreement internally, but they also have imperfect cooperation. If it weren't for the careful planning in advance, it would most likely not have worked.

It seems that these people have taken a certain goal and decided to join forces temporarily, and they lack enough trust and run-in with each other.

Seventh, Qin Tai felt that the other party not only had a large number of personnel and complex relationships, but also was relatively tightly organized, and knew the importance of keeping secrets.

Qin Tai always felt that these people were not simple, not only did they have their hands and eyes to the sky, they watched all suspicious objects, but they also knew some knowledge of marching and fighting.

Ordinary people don't arrange their troops like this, and it is very much like a general commanding a war. If it weren't for the inconsistent actions of his subordinates, Qin Tai and the others would not have found so many clues at all.

It's a pity that the current clues are too scattered, and Qin Tai can't be connected for a while. Qin Tai often said to his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao, solving the case is like you making buns.

Flour, water, condiments, ingredients, and tools are all the same, and once you find these things, you need to combine them to make buns and then steam them.

Now all kinds of clues are all kinds of materials and utensils for making steamed buns, and you need to find clues from them and connect them.

This requires Qin Tai's bold assumptions and careful verification, as well as enough clues, otherwise he will not be able to find the right direction to solve the case.

Qin Tai could hardly find important clues from inside the palace and the court, so he could only find clues from other directions.

Now there are no direct clues on the crown prince Zhu Yijun, and even if there is, he can't know the main messenger immediately. So there is only one clue left, and that is the clue about women.

Qin Tai didn't know who this woman was, what her identity was, where she lived, whether the child had been born, etc., the only clue he knew was that this woman would not live alone.

For her safety, there must be a lot of people around to watch her. A woman can't just follow a large group of men, and men will expose the whereabouts of this woman.

So Qin Tai guessed that the women were either locked up or protected by a large group of trained women.

It just so happens that Qin Tai is not only a man who understands medical skills, but also a husband who just became a father. He accompanied his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao, and almost the entire pregnancy years passed, and the knowledge did not have time to see the child born.

Qin Tai learned from his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao that there were two periods of time when the woman was suspicious. When a woman is first pregnant, she will be irritable due to pregnancy symptoms and physiological problems, and when she is about to give birth, she will often have cramps and sleep restlessly.

If this time is not strictly controlled by someone, the average woman will not be able to rest at home obediently.

She needs a certain amount of activity to relieve her mental and physical discomfort. So whether this woman is pregnant or breastfeeding, she will find a way to come out and breathe.

In addition, the identity of the child conceived by the woman is different, so she will definitely find a stable woman to check the woman's body regularly.

Therefore, Qin Tai is ready to start in this regard, find some of the more famous stable women, midwives, wet nurses and nannies in the capital to ask, and pay attention to whether there is a large group of women going out en masse.

Originally, looking for these clues, you should have found the Beijing Yamen or the household department in charge of civil affairs, and the stable woman and the midwife were under the dual management of the local yamen and the household department, so Qin Tai should have found the people from the household department or the Beijing yamen.

However, Qin Tai couldn't reveal his identity first, the second household department had no acquaintances with the yamen of the capital, and the third Dongchang and Jinyiwei's people had a good relationship with the eunuchs in the palace, so he couldn't let these people get in touch with too many secrets too early, so he thought of this friend Zhang Juzheng.

The Ministry of Rites managed by Zhang Juzheng not only manages the Hanlin Academy, Guozijian and other departments, but also manages the teaching workshop and other units.

The "Jiaofang" is not a place for students to study, but a place for some official prostitutes to receive customers and train.

The vast majority of the official prostitutes in the "Jiaofang" are family members of the convicts, and once an official commits a crime, he will first be unlucky, and then his wife and daughter will be implicated.

Any official who offended the emperor or committed a major crime was to be raided by the emperor. Unless they commit a mortal crime of extermination, such as treason and deception, the family members of the offender will not be executed on the spot.

These family members were disposed of separately, and the men were either assigned to the frontier as coolies or imprisoned permanently, and the underage men were castrated into the palace as miscellaneous eunuchs with no future.

Women who are sent to the church will always be official prostitutes, especially some half-grown girls, as long as they are trained, they can become promising **.

These girls are not only the children of large families, but also have a good literary foundation, and they are bright and bright after becoming official prostitutes.

According to the rules, these women have been official prostitutes all their lives, and they are not allowed to be good or leave casually.

The children they give birth to are future official prostitutes or little eunuchs, and it is not until three generations later that they have the opportunity to leave the church and become normal people.

However, such people will still be untouchables, and they are not allowed to study and become officials, they are not allowed to marry official eunuchs, they are not allowed to join the army, and they are not allowed to change their names and surnames.

As a result, they were reduced to ** or **** soon after, and they will never be separated from the lowly range of life.

When these people get old, they have to be matchmakers, midwives, stable mothers, and even become **. Qin Tai seemed to take advantage of this relationship, knocking on the side and asking about the whereabouts of the woman he wanted to know.

Zhang Juzheng was in a good mood first, and secondly, he knew that Qin Tai must have his own intentions in doing this. So not only did he agree, but he also temporarily made up a new identity for Qin Tai.

Qin Tai served as the manager of the teaching workshop in the name of Qin Mo, and used this capacity to inquire about what he wanted to know.

The status of the manager of the teaching workshop is not high, and even some people look down on it, everyone thinks it is just a big ****.

But I didn't know that this position was an identity that had a certain deterrent effect on the official prostitutes of the church. Official prostitutes are the lowest **, they know that they will have no future, and they do not allow themselves to commit suicide, so they will not willingly help people.

The supervisor of the school is the person who directly manages the official prostitutes, and controls the life and death of the official prostitutes, as well as the lives of the official prostitutes' families.

There is a rule in the imperial court that if an official prostitute escapes or commits suicide, her family will be executed, so the official prostitutes dare not be disobedient or offend the school manager.

"The county officials are not as good as the current management", so the official prostitutes are not as good as the guests of the officials, and they are not afraid of the threats of the **, and they are most worried about offending the teachers and stewards of the church.

Therefore, in the eyes of official prostitutes, the steward of the church is their heaven, and they are as well-behaved as kittens in front of the steward.

Qin Tai left the cabinet duty room and came directly to the teaching workshop. The certificate issued by Zhang Juzheng was presented. Immediately, all the people in the workshop gathered and met the new steward Qin Mo.

The level of the workshop is not high, except for the soldiers at the gate who do not belong to their jurisdiction, there are three or four hundred people in the entire workshop.

Among them, the steward is the highest-level manager, and there are generally three stewards, and the level is the ninth grade. Below the stewardship are the chairs, which are divided into categories to manage and educate the officials and prostitutes.

Then there is the teaching, which is promoted by experienced prostitutes, who are responsible for disciplining and taking care of the lives of official prostitutes.

Official prostitutes were divided into singing and dancing classes, chanting classes, red classes, and study classes according to their age and rank. The singing and dancing classes are all official prostitutes who are in good shape and good at performing, and their main task is to accompany the wine and dance to please the officials who come to enjoy it; The chanting class is a talented woman who specializes in reciting poetry and attending poetry meetings.

They were all learned women, who generally did not sleep with their guests, and were more arrogant; The red shift is an official prostitute who specializes in serving guests, and the main task is **; As the name suggests, the school is an underage official prostitute.

Their main task is to study, and then they are divided into classes according to their grades. For them, the chanting class is the best, the singing and dancing class is also good, and the worst class is the red class.

Although the right to divide classes is limited by their own conditions, it is also the right of the steward. Therefore, almost all official prostitutes did not dare to offend the steward, otherwise the consequences would be quite serious.

Later, Qin Tai learned from an old official prostitute that there was a high-ranking chanting class official prostitute because he offended a steward.

After the steward assigned her to the red shift, she was tortured to death in only three days. Therefore, the official prostitutes did not dare to offend the steward, and the steward was simply heaven for them.
