In fact, Zhang Whale didn't know the little emperor's psychological thoughts, and the little emperor had already had the idea of replacing Zhang Whale. At the beginning, in order to deal with Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, the little emperor had to use Zhang Siwei and Zhang Whale and others. The little emperor also knew that Zhang Siwei and Zhang Whale didn't even have half the ability of Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, but they had to use them to deal with the support situation. Zhang Siwei was quite obedient after becoming the first assistant of the cabinet, but this Zhang Whale is becoming more and more disobedient. When Zhang Whale confiscated Feng Bao's property, he left nearly thirty percent of the gold, silver and jewelry for himself, and the little emperor knew that he did this but did not know, which was a reward for Zhang Whale by the little emperor. Reward Zhang Whale for his loyalty to himself over the years, and reward Zhang Whale for going all out to help the little emperor deal with Feng Bao and others. After Zhang Whale became rich, he not only became powerful, but also lived a better life outside the palace than Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao. Zhang Whale, such a eunuch, actually married eight wives in one go, and they were all yellow flower daughters who fell into the city and the country. The little emperor has privately conjectured more than once, Zhang Jing, can you meet the needs of these women? Zhang Whale has already lived this kind of life, but Zhang Whale still feels dissatisfied. These days, the little emperor learned a lot of secrets from Zhang Whale from many different channels, some ministers learned about the little emperor's every move through Zhang Whale, some ministers even sold their official titles through Zhang Whale, and even Zhang Siwei, the first assistant of the cabinet, also gave gifts to Zhang Whale. The little emperor is a person who is very suspicious, and he is also a person with little energy. Zhang Whale's behavior has greatly exceeded the scope of the little emperor, and the little emperor has smashed a lot of things privately for this. No one knows what the little emperor means by making a move on Zhang Whale, except for Zhang Cheng next to the little emperor. is the most powerful competitor of Zhang Whale, of course Zhang Cheng will not remind Zhang Whale that he has long been eager to replace Zhang Whale as the next head of the Inner Palace.

Not only the little emperor, but even the two queen dowagers and the queen also have a lot of opinions about this Zhang Whale. As early as when Zhang Juzheng was in charge of the government, Queen Wang already had a conflict with this Zhang Whale. At the beginning, Zhang Whale saw that the little emperor and the queen were not in harmony, and the queen had no future, so he began to help the little emperor deal with the queen openly and secretly. The reason why Empress Wang and the little emperor have not been in contact with each other now is that part of the responsibility needs to be borne by Zhang Whale. Empress Dowager Chen and Empress Dowager Li also couldn't get used to Zhang Whale's behavior, because Zhang Whale always took the little emperor's wishes as his own guideline, and often encouraged the little emperor to do things out of the ordinary. Besides, although Empress Wang was selected by Zhang Juzheng for the little emperor, the two queen dowagers also agreed at that time, and no one dared not to give Queen Wang face in person. But Zhang Whale not only did not save face for Queen Wang, but also dared to sarcastically mock Queen Wang in front of everyone, the purpose was to get the secret praise of the little emperor. Queen Wang is also the master no matter how she says, and she is the daughter-in-law selected by the two mothers-in-law for her son, humiliating Queen Wang in front of everyone, isn't it equivalent to slapping the two queen mothers in the face in public? So neither Empress Dowager Chen nor Empress Dowager Li likes Zhang Whale. If it weren't for the little emperor's vigorous protection of Zhang Whale, Zhang Whale would have been beaten to death with a stick. Now the little emperor is also beginning to dislike Zhang Whale, this Zhang Whale really has no way to live. What's even more ridiculous is that this Zhang Whale still thinks that he is safe, and the little emperor will only punish him in private for a few words at most, but he doesn't know that his life has entered the countdown. Even if the little emperor didn't want to kill Zhang Whale immediately, even if Empress Wang wouldn't kill Zhang Whale immediately, even if the two empress dowagers wouldn't order Zhang Whale to be killed for a while, Zhang Cheng would find a way to kill this biggest stumbling block as soon as possible.

In front of many people, Qin Tai and his wife did not stop working, but worked more seriously. The people from the Criminal Department, Dongchang and Shen Criminal Division on the side watched these two masters who were already well-known in the industry work with a learning attitude, which was a very rare opportunity. Zhan Xiaoxiao is not only Qin Tai's assistant, but also Qin Tai's recorder and reminder. Zhan Xiaoxiao put on work clothes for her husband Qin Tai, and prepared them with customized tools. After Zhan Xiaoxiao disinfected her husband's white vinegar, Qin Tai began to observe the deceased up close, while waiting for Zhan Xiaoxiao to get dressed. Zhan Xiaoxiao also knew what her husband meant, so she immediately prepared her own affairs and helped her husband Qin Tai work as soon as possible.

The behavior of Qin Tai and his wife made people on one side feel something, and several experienced people explained the purpose of Qin Tai's actions to those who didn't understand it. Wear white robe-style clothes to clean and isolate blood stains. The purpose of smoking the whole body, especially the hands, with white vinegar is to disinfect and sterilize, so that the person performing the autopsy can try not to be infected by the germs of the deceased. As for Qin Tai's toolbox, it made the eyes of those engaged in autopsies light up, and everyone privately decided to make such a toolbox for themselves when they had time. Although it is not as good and complete as Qin Tai's husband and wife, it can also save a lot of his mind and time.

Zhan Xiaoxiao put on her work clothes, the biggest difference between her work clothes and Qin Tai's work clothes is that her work clothes have a lot of hidden pockets. The reason why the hidden bag is not an open bag is so that it does not affect the work, and it is also so that it will not be contaminated by the body fluids and blood stains of the deceased. In the hidden bag, you can put autopsy tools, pen, ink, paper, inkstone or drafts of recorded materials, and you can also put some towels or refreshing drugs. An autopsy is a very tedious job, sometimes it takes a long time to do an autopsy, and Qin Tai and his wife often work at the scene for most of the day, or even longer. Not only do they work here, but they also have to eat and sleep next to the corpses, so the most timid people can't do this job. Qin Tai presided over the dissection work, which not only consumed time but also energy. Sometimes he will sweat, and sometimes he will be physically exhausted, so Zhan Xiaoxiao, as an assistant, must not only prepare a semi-wet towel for her husband Qin Taicha Khan at any time, but also prepare some refreshing medicines to avoid Qin Tai's physical exhaustion at work. Sometimes Zhan Xiaoxiao has to prepare food and put it in the hidden bag of his work clothes to prevent Qin Tai from being hungry or thirsty. However, now in the palace, there is no need to prepare dry food or water in advance, and Zhan Xiaoxiao can save this preparation step.

While preparing various tools for dissection for her husband Qin Tai, Zhan Xiaoxiao began to grind ink, spread out the spare paper, and prepare to record the corpse. Originally, preparations had to be done before each autopsy, such as grinding ink, burning vinegar, preparing liquor, and so on. However, this time when I came to the palace to handle the case, not only was the time very urgent, but it was also impossible to prepare in advance, so Zhanxiao's workload suddenly increased a lot. The people on one side are not what Zhan Xiaoxiao can command, and Zhan Xiaoxiao is not very worried about these people, so some preparations must be completed in the shortest possible time. Zhan Xiaoxiao is really a little in a hurry, after all, he hasn't been doing himself well over the years, and his hands and feet are a little rusty.

The Empress Dowager Li on the side couldn't stand it, she knew Zhan Xiaoxiao better, Zhan Xiaoxiao was a strong person, and she would not easily ask others for help. With a wave of her hand, she asked a few palace maids around her to go over to give Zhan Xiaoxiao a hand. Zhan Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately instructed the palace maids to do things. With the help of these palace maids, the preparations were completed immediately. An experienced palace maid sharpens ink with her own experience, and it is estimated that it will not be long before there will be enough ink to spare. A woman who had worked as a fire maid in Cining Palace took over the vinegar burning work. Vinegar is burned not only for disinfection, but also to drive away the odor from the corpse. Although the corpses do not decay easily in the ice cellar, they do emit a foul odor that is not only unpleasant but also very bad for the observer. Therefore, burning vinegar is not only necessary, but also burns without stopping. Zhan Xiaoxiao instructed this palace maid that before the work is completed, the vinegar cannot be stopped. A palace maid was instructed by Zhan Xiaoxiao to go to the noodle vinegar bureau in the palace to get the strongest liquor, of course, not for drinking, but for sterilization and disinfection. The palace maid looked at the Empress Dowager Li and the little emperor, and the little emperor nodded subconsciously, and the palace maid dared to go to the noodle vinegar bureau to get wine. Qin Tai on the side saw this scene carefully, it seems that the little emperor's power in the palace is getting bigger and bigger, and the Empress Dowager Li has really become an expired family member. Even the palace maids beside Empress Dowager Li have to look at the little emperor's face and act, it seems that the little emperor has really become the head of the family.

Zhan Xiaoxiao didn't have time to observe these details, so she reported out the things she needed one by one and asked the palace maid to prepare. As soon as the little emperor raised his hand, the eunuch on the side immediately understood and went to prepare. After a while, almost all the things needed for Zhan Xiaoxiao were ready, except for a few small things that were special and needed to be brought over after a while. Zhan Xiaoxiao is not worried at all, because this is the imperial palace, and the person who ordered the things is the little emperor, and these things will definitely be able to get them.

The bodies of the five children were laid to rest in the open space on the first floor of the ice cellar. The bodies of each child were placed on a half-height table, and because the deceased had a certain status, the bodies were not destroyed much. When Qin Tai and his wife saw the corpse, except for a slight decomposition on the corpse, it was almost the same as if they had just died. Each child was naked, covered with a plain-colored blanket, especially the little emperor's daughter, whose clothes were still intact. Qin Tai and his wife couldn't help but feel a little sad when they saw these children, these children were the most innocent victims. They should have been innocent and alive, but now they are all cold corpses.
