The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 49: Don't let the murderer get cheap

Chapter 49: Dont give the murderer an advantage

Two big dogs were locked in iron cages and placed in front of the gate of the princess's mansion.

Du Wan asked someone to write another notice: If you find the owner of the dog, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins, but you can remain anonymous.

The first time she learned that her daughter almost had an accident again, the eldest princess was extremely angry!

Therefore, the eldest princess immediately said angrily: "There is such a small road, it can be said that it is at the door of my own house, and someone dares to murder my son. Do you really think that I am dead?"

As soon as the eldest princess slapped the case on the table, she immediately ordered people to go to the Yamen to report the case, and also sent people to investigate the culprit.

Du Wan was obediently waiting around. While giving the eldest princess a pat on her back, she handed her tea, "Mom, don't be angry, don't be angry! How do you heal your body when you are so angry? It's not worth it."

For your sake, why isnt it worth it?

"Of course it's not worth it! The people behind the scenes wanted to harm me, but they didn't succeed, but they made you angry. Isn't this just giving someone a head? For the people behind the scenes, it is an unexpected surprise."

Du Wan successfully convinced the eldest princess with some crooked reasoning.

The eldest princess clapped her little hand and said, "Wan'er is right. I can't be angry, lest I give the murderer an advantage."

Yes! You cant give the murderer an advantage.

"Uh-huh."

The servants who watched the whole scene became more and more silent.

Mother! Waner

Du Qian hurriedly rushed in. As soon as he saw his sister, he stepped forward and looked left and right, "Is my sister injured?"

"No no."

Du Wan said quickly, "Brother, don't worry."

I just bumped my shoulder and it was a little burning at first, but now it wont hurt if I dont touch it. I can wait until I get back to Yulingyuan to find medicinal wine and rub it, so there is no need to say anything now, so as not to worry the whole family.

Du Qian believed that she was fine, and then relaxed, but then he looked angry again, "Who is it?! Wanting Wanwan's life again and again?! Don't let me find them, I have to skin them alive. Otherwise Its hard to get rid of my anger!

This is not necessarily the original person

Du Wan muttered softly.

She had doubts about Xie Zhang at first. But now that the matter in the mine has been exposed, and Xie Zhang was not involved, it would be a disadvantage if he tried to kill her again.

Does this indirectly prove that the person behind the attempt to kill her was not Xie Zhang?

Especially for people like Xie Zhang who have to weigh the pros and cons of every little thing, they would not choose to do something in a place where powerful people gather. The richer people are, the more afraid they are of death. This undoubtedly stirs up a hornet's nest.

Who is behind the scenes?

So anxious to kill her?

Du Wan quietly called Ning Qin, "Go and inquire about the Huang family on Tongzi Street in Xicheng City. You don't need any gossip. You just need to find out how many members there are in the Huang family and how many girls there are who have not left the court."

"Princess, these are common news. It is not difficult to find out. You can just ask a few neighbors. Wait, I will be back soon."

Ning Qin went out for a trip and came back quickly.

The Huang family consists of three generations, including wives and concubines, a family of more than a dozen people. There are only five girls in the younger generation, two of whom are married. The only one who is of suitable age and unmarried is Miss Huang San. The remaining two are three years old and one is still in her infancy.

Du Wan frowned, "What about the sick and unmarried aunt?"

"No. The Huang family is considered a wealthy family in that area. Matchmakers have come to visit the girls before they have grown up, and I haven't heard of any girls who are sick or weak." Ning Qin was very sure.

Because when Ning Qin went to inquire about it, others thought that her master was interested in a girl from the Huang family.

Du Wan now completely believes that the Huang family on Tongzi Street is not the Huang family of the imperial merchants in the book. The rumors may have nothing to do with Xie Zhang.

How could the original owner offend the Huang family? They look like a pretty ordinary family. Now we can only wait for the results of Pei Hao's investigation to see what happens.

That day.

The dog in front of the princess's mansion has become a hot topic in the capital. If there is a "hot search" in this world, it will surely dominate the headlines. Some people were even curious and came to the gate of the Princess Mansion to check.

The notices are written in particularly large letters and are very eye-catching.

Whats particularly considerate is that you can remain anonymous!

Because some people are afraid, even if they know about it, they dare not say anything for fear of retaliation. Anonymity is different, the room for maneuver is larger, and people's hearts become more active.

However, no matter how fast the people in the capital moved, they could not move faster than the spies of the Imperial City Department.

Zhenguogongfu.

Pei Hao sat in the study with a frosty face, listening quietly to his subordinates' reports.

The little girl came to visit him, and something almost happened on the way back, which really touched Pei Hao's nerves. Fortunately, the little girl was not seriously injured, otherwise, he would have been nailed to the pillar of shame and even angered by the princess palace.

The subordinate lowered his head and reported the results of the investigation, "Your Majesty, those three dogs were stolen by a few gangsters from a dog farm outside the city five days ago, and then someone bought them for ten taels of silver three days ago."

Who bought it? Pei Hao asked coldly.

The subordinate said: "He is a small steward of Nanyang Bofu."

"Uncle Nanyang?" Pei Hao's face was as cold as frost.

"Yes."

"Can you tell who did it, Uncle Nanyang?" Pei Hao had a guess in his mind, but he still needed evidence.

Mu Si'an was listening on the sidelines, and then he spoke out: "Your Majesty, not long ago, the seventh girl in Nanyang House had a reputation that was damaged and she might hate the princess. Do you think... could it be her?"

Pei Hao looked at Mu Si'an and asked, "Could it be her?"

Normal people wouldnt do this, but a brainless boudoir lady might do it.

Your injury is almost healed.

Its extremely good.

"Then go check it out in person. It's not convenient for me to show up now." Pei Hao felt annoyed for the first time that he had pretended to be sick too much and it was not convenient for him to go out.

Mu Si'an nodded solemnly and stood up to leave.

With Mu Si'an personally presiding over it and the eldest princess intervening, the Yamen did not dare to muddle through.

So it opened the door for investigators.

That night, three recently dead bodies were found in an abandoned yard. They all died of poisoning.

It was found that they were the three missing servants of Nanyang House.

The mastermind behind the dog's murder went straight to Nanyang Bo's Mansion!

Uncle Nanyang was furious when he heard the news, but before he could find out the news, he was announced to the palace by the emperor that night.

No one in the palace knew what the emperor said to Nanyang Bo. Anyway, Nanyang Bo was so angry that he turned blue when he returned home. After calling Wang Jin'er, he went straight to the family, beat him half to death, and sent him to the Yamen overnight.

Wang Jin'er didn't admit it at this time and no one listened. The evidence is very sufficient.

The reason is that one of the three people who died was Wang Jin'er's maid.

Du Wan only felt that when she woke up, the weather outside had changed again.

Ningqin told Du Wan what happened vividly.

Is it really Wang Jiner? Du Wan was stunned.

Ningqin said angrily: "It's her, she's in jail now."

How did you find out so quickly?

Du Wan was surprised at the speed of investigation in ancient times, "I placed a reward at that time and thought it would be difficult to investigate. Fortunately, no one has come to claim the reward yet. Hurry up and withdraw it."

Ningqin suddenly covered her mouth and smiled, "Princess, it's too late."
