Chapter 394: Progress

Especially if you come from other places and don't have skewers in the local area.

It's rare to come to the capital, and I want to eat it.

Some people who didn't look down on the Gu family's skewers and thought highly of themselves heard that they even had to eat them in the palace, so they also put down their face and wanted to taste it.

There is really no place in the store, and even if the queue is late, I can't eat when it closes.

As a result, the business of the errand shop also improved.

The guy who ran the errand shop followed the foothold of the somewhat suspicious customer.

The guy who ran the errand shop came to follow him, but there was really no trace, and it didn't make people suspicious at all.

They delivered the goods and followed the man by the way.

You can even take the opportunity to observe his daily activities after discovering his whereabouts.

Tell Li Mumu where that person has gone every day, who he has seen, and who has gone to his residence to meet him.

For this reason, the prince also specially assigned a secret guard to Li Mumu.

Lest Li Mumu does not have a trustworthy and kung fu person around him, he needs to arrange someone to find Gu Shangqing, and then Gu Shangqing will report to the prince.

The people around Li Mumu can be trusted, but they don't know kung fu, and it is easy to have accidents in the process of sending letters.

Therefore, Li Mumu did not dare to ask someone to send a letter directly to the prince.

Before, Sumei Sulan was lent to Li Mumu by Li Zhiyin, and now that he has returned to Li's house, he will go back to the border after a while.

Now that there is a secret guard transferred by the prince, it is much more convenient.

There was some news, so Li Mumu wrote a letter asking the secret guard to bring it back to the prince, so that the prince could be ready at any time, so as not to miss anything.

The secret guards who investigated Zhang Laohan and Zhang Yingzi in Chong'an finally returned to the capital.

The sage asked the prince to come and listen to the secret guard's return.

"The subordinates went to Chong'an to investigate the matter of Zhang Laohan and Zhang Yingzi." In order to protect Zhang Yingzi's reputation, when Mrs. Gu sent Zhang Yingzi home, she brought silver and jewelry as a thank you gift, saying that she was studying the matter of opening a shop in Wuwei and asked Zhang Yingzi to be her guide. This is the first wealth that the Zhang family has received. ”

"After General Gu was able to get out of bed and walk around, he went to Zhang's house with Mrs. Gu to thank Zhang Laohan and Zhang Yingzi, and Mrs. Gu officially sent a thank you gift to the Zhang family, with a shop and money, which is the second wealth that the Zhang family received."

With these, Zhang Laohan and Zhang Yingzi moved out of the mountain village. Because the villagers would go to Wuwei City from time to time, Zhang Laohan was worried that after they moved to Wuwei, they would meet the villagers in the future and would be entangled by the villagers, especially if they borrowed money from them or something. The secret guard said, "So Zhang Laohan took Zhang Yingzi to Chong'an, bought a house in Chong'an, and rented out the shop, and the money in his hand did nothing, and it was enough for them to enjoy." ”

The sage frowned and said, "Old Man Zhang can be regarded as having a good plan for Zhang Yingzi." ”

"Zhang Yingzi lost her mother when she was seven years old, and it was Zhang Laohan who raised her single-handedly, and Zhang Laohan did not remarry, only Zhang Yingzi's daughter." Dark Guard.

"Zhang Laohan found a female gentleman for Zhang Yingzi again, taught Zhang Yingzi to read and write, taught her etiquette, trained Zhang Yingzi to everyone's ladies, and wanted to marry Zhang Yingzi high."

"However, the people in Chong'an City know the details of the Zhang family, except for the people who covet Zhang Yingzi's dowry, the families who are slightly rich in Chong'an do not mean to choose Zhang Yingzi." Dark Guard.

The prince said: "Even if you covet Zhang Yingzi's dowry, then you are not a good person to marry." ”

"Yes, Zhang Laohan also thinks so, so Zhang Yingzi has already reached the age of talking about relatives, but he hasn't talked about his last family business yet. can look at Zhang Yingzi, Zhang Laohan can't look down. Zhang Laohan looked at it, but the other party looked down on Zhang Yingzi. ”

"From the Zhang family settling down in Chong'an to going to Beijing, except for the female gentleman who taught Zhang Yingzi, there was nothing suspicious during this period." Dark Wei said, "Zhang Yingzi concentrates on learning to be a lady at home, and she doesn't go out much. ”

"Occasionally, when I go out, I also go to clothing shops and jewelry stores." Dark Guard said, "During that period, none of these shops had entered with a fresh face, and they had never met Zhang Yingzi. ”

"Zhang Yingzi is a person who never stops when he sees a beggar on the road, and he has never been in contact with strangers." Secretly Wei said, "That female gentleman went to Zhang's house to recommend herself when Zhang Laohan was looking for Mr. ”

"After Zhang Yingzi took Zhang Laohan to Beijing, the female gentleman left." "The subordinates went to look for the trace of the female gentleman again, but they never found it. ”

"It was his subordinates who came back first to report to the saint, and the rest of the people are still looking for the traces of the female gentleman."

The saint said: "If she can't find it, then I'm afraid she is no longer in Daxi." ”

The dark guard didn't speak, and the prince said, "The saint means ......"

"That gentleman may have been sent by the Turks?" The prince said, "Is it she who poisoned Zhang Laohan?" ”

"It's all just speculation." The sage said, "It's just that I think it's not necessarily that simple. ”

"If that's the case, then let the guards continue to track down the whereabouts of the female gentleman." The sage said to Pan Lun again, "Call the queen to relax the restraint on Zhang Yingzi a little and see if anyone will go to see Zhang Yingzi." ”

"Yes." Pan Lunchi bent down in response.

"What happened to the suspicious person Li Mumu found outside the palace?" The sage asked the prince.

The prince said: "Someone went to see the man, and sure enough, he asked the person if he could inquire about the skewer ingredients that would be used in the palace banquet." ”

"The man said that chicken, beef, and mutton would definitely be used in palace banquets." The prince said, "Now the retainers have arranged to control that person, and another person has been sent to monitor the person who has been connected in the past, but the person has not been arrested. ”

Erchen thought that maybe he could find out the rats hidden in the palace through that person. Prince Road.

"Then you must keep that person under surveillance, and don't miss anything." Saint Humanity.

The crown prince nodded, "Yes." ”

Two days later, when the prince was discussing political affairs with the saint in the imperial study, the secret guard asked for an audience.

Because the person in the palace who contacted the person outside the palace had already seen it.

"Who?" The saint asked in a deep voice.

"My subordinates have checked it, and she is a little palace maid under the system of the Shanggong Bureau." Dark Guard said, "It's called Zhaoxia." ”

The division is in charge of tailoring and other matters.

The sage looked at Pan Lunchi, who immediately bowed down and said, "The slave will go and investigate." ”

Pan Lunchi moved quickly, and after a cup of tea, he replied: "Sage, it has been found out, it is indeed a little palace maid named Zhaoxia under the control of the Shanggong Bureau. The little palace maid is the last little palace maid in the Shanggong Bureau, and she is usually only responsible for making clothes for the last minions in the palace, and she can't even touch the clothes of the high-class palace maids, let alone hand over the sewing of the masters' clothes to her. ”
