The Princess’s Inner Thoughts Were Overheard by Her Emperor Father

Chapter 228: The Women's Investigation Team Is Established

Mrs. Shangguan was like a fish in water among a group of ladies.

She just started, and everyone was very interested.

When she changed the dream a little and said it vaguely, several people in the room had changed their faces.

"Fairy boy?"

"The cause of death of the former queen was strange...? Wasn't it an acute illness?!"

A group of ladies were stunned.

But where there are people, there are gossips.

As long as one person starts, there will be people following up!

Before Mrs. Shangguan even answered everyone's questions, someone had already spoken with a twinkling eyebrow.

"I was a guest at the Meng Mansion a few years ago, and it happened to be the day when the former queen passed away. At that time, I saw that Mrs. Meng was not only sad, but also had a look of fear on her face!"

Everyone was shocked and turned to look, and found that it was the wife of the censor who was speaking.

The wife of the censor used to visit the Meng Mansion of the Minister of War frequently, and she didn't seem like someone who would tell lies.

"Why would she be scared?" The ladies who were mothers present all felt that they had eaten a big melon.

This divergence was incredible. Some memories that seemed insignificant at the time because of the long time ago suddenly came out.

"Did the nanny brought into the palace by the former queen disappear soon after returning to the Meng Mansion?"

"I don't think I have seen this nanny again. Did she return to the Meng Mansion?"

Mrs. Shangguan's eyes suddenly flickered wildly, and she turned to look at the other person beside her, "Sister Qian, more than ten years ago, it seems that you had a maid in your mansion, who was the fellow villager of the nanny beside the former queen."

When she said this, the eyes of the women in the whole room lit up.

Mrs. Qian was stunned, "Indeed, I didn't expect you to remember the story of a maid."

Mrs. Shangguan slapped her thigh. She usually had no other hobbies, and she was not like a talented woman who could read, and she was too lazy to discipline her son. From her youth to now, her favorite thing was to chat with the female relatives.

Listening to other people's gossip is Mrs. Shangguan's pleasure. Not only can she pick up what others say, but she can also turn around and tell others.

After a while, she remembered some trivial things clearly.

"Isn't life boring? If there weren't some interesting things happening in everyone's house, I would be bored all day long." Madam Shangguan coughed lightly.

"Sister Qian, your girl once poured me tea."

"At that time, I chatted with her for a few words, and happened to talk about the nanny next to the former queen. She said that this nanny liked to eat meat around bones when she was young."

The women in the room admired Madam Shangguan. No one could get so much useless information by gossiping.

But today, Madam Shangguan's ability to gossip was very useful.

Her mentioning evoked Madam Qian's dusty memory, "The nanny didn't go back to the Meng Mansion. I heard from my girl that after leaving the palace, the nanny took a carriage back to her hometown."

Madam Qian frowned as she spoke, "But when we were about to reach the farm, the carriage overturned into the river, and the nanny died when she was rescued."

"!"

"!!"

The women in the whole room took a breath of cold air. The cups in the hands of the less courageous ones fell on the table with a bang.

Just now, Madam Shangguan said that the fairy child had told them in a dream that the former queen died in a strange way, and they thought it was a joke. But now, they learned that the former queen's nanny also died inexplicably.

This matter is getting more and more complicated!

Madam Shangguan sighed and was very worried, "It's time to select the concubines again. Even if it is not held this year, it will be postponed to next year. When that time comes, what will we do with our daughters who are waiting to be married?"

The ladies in the whole room suddenly became worried.

They usually don't have official affairs like their husbands, and they don't know much about government affairs, but they are very concerned about their daughters' affairs.

This time, after being enlightened by Madam Shangguan, they all thought about their daughters and granddaughters entering the palace in the future. What if they are like the former queen...

The ladies in the whole room shuddered.

"I don't know about Queen Meng, but Queen Liu's father was the teacher of my elder brother, who is my sister-in-law. I'll go ask Queen Liu about her."

Queen Liu was the second queen to die.

When this was mentioned, everyone's thoughts instantly expanded.

"I don't have any in-law relationship with Queen Liu, but I watched Queen Zheng grow up."

Queen Zheng was the third queen to die...

"My husband is also a student of the Liu family."

"I know Queen Liu's wet nurse."

Mrs. Shangguan nodded repeatedly, very satisfied with everyone's positive feedback, but she quickly reached out and named a few people.

"Has your husband ever been a royal guard?"

"Did you hire a nanny from the palace to teach your daughter before the New Year?"

"Has your father-in-law ever been the prince's teacher and often entered the palace?"

All of a sudden, the women around Mrs. Shangguan seemed to have received their own investigation tasks.

There was no need to force them to do this task.

As soon as the gossip was mentioned, the women were eager to make a move. On the one hand, they wanted to know the truth out of curiosity, and on the other hand, they wanted to find out because they had children.

"Well, okay, Sister Shangguan, I will go home today and ask my mother-in-law."

"Isn't it simple? I will drink with my husband and ask him when he is a little drunk."

"Leave it to me. I have a very good relationship with Empress Liu's mother. I will write a letter right away..."

[Wow, Mrs. Shangguan is so powerful. 】

Xiao Chuchu was eating melons in the distance, and couldn't help but admire her. [Her ability to eat melons is too strong. Not only did she tell hundreds of people, but she also mobilized everyone to find clues together. She really looked for melon vines in the melon field and dug them out. I am really impressed. ]

[Not bad, I will praise Madam Shangguan when she dreams tonight~]

Xiao Chuchu grinned.

[By the way, read the criminal investigation and autopsy skill books I exchanged to Madam Shangguan. ]

Xiao Yunzhou and Liu Channiang pricked up their ears in the Jingguo Palace, and the more they listened, the more frightened they were.

Their little princess is really a fairy!

Don't scare Madam Yuanguo out of her wits!

Madam Shangguan didn't know that the Emperor of Jingguo was worried about her courage. Instead, she felt that she was full of energy after eating melons all day!

At night, seeing Master Shangguan Ming bathing and burning incense again, and going to bed with Buddhist beads, Madam Shangguan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"Master, did the fairy child really appear in your dream? What did she tell you?" Madam Shangguan wanted to know if she and her husband dreamed of the same fairy child.

But she didn't dare to tell the master about her dream directly, because the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed.

Madam Shangguan remembered what the fairy child said. She knew the secrets of heaven, but she paid a price - actively looking for the truth, she was busy all day!

She didn't dare to tell Shangguan Ming who didn't pay the price, lest he shorten his life.

But she asked the question carefully, but Shangguan Ming refused to answer.

"Just stay at home and take care of your grandson's full moon wine, and don't ask about other things." Shangguan Ming glanced at his wife unhappily, "I knew that you lied to me when you said you dreamed of a fairy boy last night."

"What's the point of telling you about the world's major events?"

Mrs. Shangguan was immediately upset and pulled the quilt off him, "Yes, yes, I don't deserve to know! Go to your study and sleep!"

"That won't work." Shangguan Ming refused sternly, "What if the fairy boy recognizes the bed? If I go to the study, she won't be able to find me."

Mrs. Shangguan rolled her eyes.

But that night, they fell asleep at the same time. Shangguan Ming read scriptures all night, but he didn't dream of a fairy boy.

But Mrs. Shangguan woke up in the morning, refreshed and rosy.

"Master, I dreamed of a fairy boy again. The fairy boy said that I am more promising than you, so she decided to give me some guidance."

Shangguan Ming: "???" Nonsense all morning! How is it possible?

"Madam, tell me what the fairy boy was wearing?"

"I didn't notice that."

"Hmph, you're lying!"

"But sir, I saw the heavenly book in the fairy boy's hand, "The Complete Guide to Coroner's Autopsy."

"???"
