Now there is only one question, how to prove that Zhou's mother had contact with Yuniang in private, and how Zhou's mother instructed the murderer to poison Yuniang. Zhan Xiaoxiao suddenly put forward a little suggestion of her own, Zhou's mother may be a hidden master. If this is the case, will Zhou's mother be the murderer of Du Shiyu Niang and then leave calmly? When I saw Zhou's mother just now, I felt that Zhou's mother was a little wrong, so it can not only be cultivated, but Zhou's mother has a long breath when she walks, which ordinary people can't learn. Now that I think about it, this Zhou's mother doesn't look like a middle-aged woman, but more like a restrained master. Although Zhan Xiaoxiao couldn't detect the murderous aura on her, this momentum made Zhan Xiaoxiao look at Zhou's mother a few more times.

Qin Tai suddenly had a strange idea, if the descendants of Han Jiazhuang hadn't died, they would have been about the same age or skills as Zhou's mother, and they also had a unique poison like Drunken Begonia. Qin Tai wanted Zhan Xiaoxiao to go back to Dongchang immediately with him to investigate the information of the descendants of the deceased Hanjiazhuang and make a comparison with Zhou's mother. Because this matter is very urgent and important, Qin Tai and his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao rushed to the East Factory together. Just as Qin Tai and his wife walked out of Zhang Juzheng's house to go to Dongchang, a carrier pigeon flew out of Zhang Juzheng's house and flew in another direction. Qin Tai and his wife didn't care, it didn't mean that no one paid attention, and a few Dongchang fans who secretly followed Qin Tai and his wife saw this carrier pigeon. They knew how important this pigeon was, so they sent two men to follow the pigeon. There are a lot of people who raise pigeons in the capital to play, but the pigeons raised are different from the carrier pigeons used to transmit the news. Besides, Zhang Juzheng's family has no habit of raising pigeons to play, so there will be no ordinary pigeons flying out of Zhang Juzheng's house, and the pigeons that can fly out from Zhang Juzheng will only be carrier pigeons. Speaking of Zhang Juzheng's dislike of raising pigeons, Feng Bao once told everyone a joke. When Zhang Juzheng was serving as a squire in the military department, he once drew a map of the military land at home one day and prepared to assign tasks to everyone the next day. Unexpectedly, his neighbor kept a large flock of pigeons, and when he went to rest, he forgot to close the window, and the pigeons not only and pee on the map, but also destroyed the map. Zhang Juzheng didn't know about it, he asked his entourage to go to the study to get the map. The retinue didn't know how to read and didn't know that the map had been destroyed, but they cleaned up the pigeon droppings on it and thought it was all right. Zhang Juzheng not only made a big joke, but also vowed not to raise pigeons again for the rest of his life, so Zhang Juzheng is not allowed to raise pigeons is a secret that everyone knows.

When Qin Tai and his wife Zhan Xiaoxiao rushed to the East Factory, the people who watched the gate of the East Factory happened to be newcomers who didn't know Qin Tai and his wife. Although Qin Tai and his wife took out Feng Bao's waist card, they still took Qin Tai and his wife to the duty room of the East Factory. The eunuch on duty in the East Factory happened to be Zhang Jing's cronies, and by interrogating Qin Tai and his wife about the origin of Feng Bao's waist card in his hand, he actually wanted to make things difficult and delay Qin Tai and his wife. He had already sent someone to report to Zhang Whale, and wanted to get further instructions from Zhang Whale before deciding how to treat Qin Tai and his wife next. Qin Tai and his wife also saw that this eunuch was deliberately making things difficult for himself, but today he had to go through the Dongchang archives, so he patiently dealt with the other party later. Zhan Xiaoxiao answered questions while secretly observing whether there were any familiar acquaintances in the East Factory. However, since Zhang Jing became the head of the East Factory, a large number of his cronies have been used to replace Feng Bao, so the people who often walk around in the Yamen of the East Factory are no longer people who Zhan Xiaoxiao knows.

Originally, this eunuch would continue to embarrass Qin Tai and his wife, but the appearance of a person helped Qin Tai and his wife. A woman in her thirties came to Dongchang to deliver food to the eunuchs, but recognized the identities of Qin Tai and his wife at a glance. This woman dressed as a woman came up to salute Qin Tai and his wife, and then begged the eunuch not to embarrass Qin Tai and his wife. It turned out that this woman was a woman who served as a palace maid in the palace in her early years, and she was once the goddaughter of the great eunuch Huang Jin. Later, after Huang Jin lost power, she took refuge in another big eunuch, and the big eunuch pointed her out to this eunuch as a "husband and wife". From then on, she was the wife of this eunuch, and after leaving the palace, she lived in the eunuch's house outside as a wife, and came every day to bring food to this nominal husband. The woman knew that Qin Tai and his wife had a good relationship with his godfather Huang Jin, so she begged her husband not to make it too difficult for the couple. The eunuch was very good to this wife, and secondly, he was unwilling to offend Qin Tai and his wife too much, because behind Qin Tai and his wife were not only the eunuch Feng Bao, but also Zhang Juzheng, the head of the cabinet. So he took the opportunity of the woman begging him, and let Qin Tai and his wife go to the place they wanted to go in the East Factory. The woman secretly told Zhan Xiaoxiao that she could only help Qin Tai and his wife here, and she couldn't help them any further. Zhan Xiaoxiao still nodded gratefully, it seems that this woman still has a little conscience and gratitude.

Qin Tai and his wife took Feng Bao's waist card and smoothly entered the Dongchang archives, but it took time to retrieve relevant files and some old files. When they helped Qin Tai and his wife find information, the eunuch who had left Qin Tai and his wife in trouble appeared again. He came to convey Zhang Jing's order, not only did he not allow Qin Tai and his wife to access the confidential files inside the East Factory, but also did not allow Qin Tai and his wife to stay in the East Factory, on the grounds that Qin Tai and his wife were not from the East Factory. It seemed that this order had just been given, so the eunuch had no choice but to rush over and announce it. Although the people in the archives belonged directly to Feng Bao and ignored Zhang Whale's orders, this eunuch was followed by a large group of people from Dongchang, who were here to drive away Qin Tai and his wife. An old man in the archives secretly gave Qin Tai and his wife a look, meaning that he would find the archives for Qin Tai and his wife, and asked Qin Tai and his wife not to clash with Zhang Whale's people head-on. The old man persuaded Qin Tai and his wife to leave, and casually stuffed Qin Tai with a paper bag. Qin Tai and his wife left the East Factory, and when they opened it, they saw that it was just an outer packaging bag of tea leaves in a teahouse. knew that the old man asked them to meet in this teahouse, and when he found the news, he gave it to Qin Tai and his wife.

Qin Tai and his wife came to this teahouse not too far from the East Factory, the teahouse is not large but the business is good, Qin Tai and his wife sat down in a window position on the second floor, drinking tea while waiting for news. Qin Tai was even more worried about Feng Bao, the eunuch who held the seal of the celebrant eunuch, and Feng Bao, the biggest eunuch on the surface, had actually begun to lose control of the East Factory. Although Dongchang and Jinyiwei are at the same level, they both belong to the royal secret service agencies, but Dongchang has the right to supervise and guide the work of Jinyiwei, and losing control of Dongchang is equivalent to losing most of the power. Feng Bao will definitely not give it to others easily, the only explanation is that the little emperor or the Empress Dowager Li asked him to let it out, it seems that the little emperor or the Empress Dowager Li has already begun to cultivate the successor of the eunuch of the inner palace. Almost every retired celebrant and eunuch with the palm seal will not have a good time, at least the generations of celebrant eunuchs Qin Tai has seen are like this, so Qin Tai is worried about Feng Bao's future. Whether it was Lu Fang, who was known as the ancestor back then, or Chen Hong, who was arrogant and domineering, or Meng Chong, who was a little timid, they used to be the eunuchs with infinite scenery, but what was the result? Lu Fang was sent to Fengyang to guard the imperial mausoleum, and later heard that he was tired and starved and died near the imperial mausoleum. Chen Hong was the worst, he was taken down as the eunuch in charge of the celebrant seal, and it can be said that he died unexpectedly. Meng Chong finally became the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, but because Feng Bao's opponent was too strong, he didn't have a day of glory. After Meng Chong was kicked out of the palace, although Feng Bao listened to the advice of Qin Tai and others and did not kill Meng Chong, Meng Chong thought that because he had offended too many people, he died on the way to Nanjing. What will happen to Feng Bao in the future? The best result was to be raised by the order of Empress Dowager Li and the little emperor, and became a powerless old eunuch. will almost be like Huang Jin, living a difficult life near the capital. He was almost driven back to Fengyang or Nanjing, and lived an unfree life in semi-detention. The worst thing is to be tortured to death on the road, and there is no cemetery for the whole world. It all depends on the little emperor's conscience towards Feng Bao, if the little emperor reads Feng Bao's nurturing grace, he will be kind to Feng Bao, if the little emperor forgets this kindness, Feng Bao will be very sad.

The old man in the archives also came to the teahouse soon after, and did not meet Qin Tai and his wife immediately. He walked into the private room of a teahouse, ordered some drinks, and asked the man not to disturb himself. After the guy left, Qin Tai and his wife entered the private room without everyone paying attention. The old man told Qin Tai and his wife that this was actually the property of an old man in Dongchang, so there would be people from Dongchang who would often come in and out, and the old man could not meet Qin Tai and his wife directly. Qin Tai asked his wife Zhan to look at the door, and he immediately went to look at the archives, because these archives could not leave the archives room for a long time, and the old man took them out secretly. Qin Tai didn't have much information about the descendants of Hanjiazhuang, because the age was relatively old, and there was even less information left. Although there is a vague portrait, it is somewhat different from Zhou's mother's appearance. Women change dramatically with age, sometimes in a few years. There are three time periods when women change most significantly, the first being when a girl becomes a woman. The second is before and after the woman gives birth. The third is when women are blessed in middle age. If you don't pay attention or don't get together during these three time periods, it's likely that even acquaintances won't know each other. Zhou's mother is already around forty years old, and it is uncertain whether she will be the same person as the descendants of Hanjiazhuang, who was only twenty or thirty years old at the time.
