Chapter 635: Hostage

As soon as Yuan left, Su Yiqing immediately ordered Lu Teng to check the family background of Yuan again in detail, and also asked someone to keep an eye on him to see who Yuan had been interacting with in the past few days.

Thinking about the entire poisoning process in detail, Su Yiqing couldn't help but sigh, why did she forget that there was a trick of bitter meat? If it was said that it was convenient to poison, Yuan was one of them, but Yuan was deeply poisoned. Her husband diagnosed her and could not worry about her life. Of course, it was easy for a person to ignore the victim in his psychology, but sometimes the victims were often the perpetrators.

Looking back on the allusions I saw before, bitter meat schemes have always been tried and tried. Yuan first tried on his child. Naturally, no one suspected that she was a poisoner after being poisoned. She would have the next chance to attack and would not be easily suspected.

When Su Yiqing thought about it, she felt scared. If Yuan was not so troublesome, she would just take action at once, for fear that the child would be unexpected. This is probably thanks to the cruel ways of involuntarily in ancient times, especially for the superiors. If the servants want to be inferred, the whole family will be implicated.

It is also very strict to choose subordinates in the Dingwang Mansion. Those who do not know the details or have no relatives or reasons will not be entrusted with important tasks.

Those who can be a wet nurse are naturally innocent and have close relatives. I remember that Yuan had two sons and his family was originally well-off, but her husband was injured when he went out to work and had to raise him for a long time. She gave birth to her with her sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law had sufficient milk and could breastfeed two children by herself. She let her go to the Dingwang Mansion to be a wet nurse, and she could earn more money to subsidize her family.

Such a person is not easy to have evil intentions, or dare not have the idea of ​​evil intentions, because her whole family is nearby. If she makes any mistakes in the royal palace, the whole family will be implicated.

The reason why this is now is either being tempted or being threatened.

After investigation, Lu Teng returned and said that the Yuan family lived in a village outside Yancheng. It was normal for them to be together. There were no accidents, and no outsiders frequently contacted their family. They had familiar faces when they were interacting with each other, and no strangers contacted their family.

This investigation was also reasonable by Su Yiqing. It was easy to find out something strange, and Yuan would not have had such a lot of effort.

She gave Lu Vine a few more words, and Lu understood it.

After seeing the princess last time, Yuan thought about the whole story, and always felt uneasy, but she didn't know where she was doing something wrong. Only after a few days later, there was no movement. Instead, the princess ordered people to send many expensive tonics again and again, and asked two little maids to take turns to serve her. She was like the master in the mansion. People who were a little familiar were envious, saying that if they survived the disaster, they would have good fortune.

Yuan just smiled humbly at people, and occasionally asked a few questions about the little prince. He didn't dare to ask more about anything else. He would say something without asking. Seeing that Yuan made contributions to saving the little prince, he probably would become a top celebrity in the palace. There were naturally many people who were rushing to curry favor with him, and some people would offer all kinds of news.

It was heard from all that, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the people who served the little prince in the yard were not all replaced, and only a group of people came in. The few nannies who were serving the little prince were temporarily confined in their house and were not allowed to walk around at will. This was normal. After all, the little prince almost had an accident, and the people who served were suspected of being inadequately taken care of, especially when the poisoned person could not be found. Such a punishment was already very light. If there was such a thing in other mansions, even if there was not a few people on the spot, they would definitely have to torture and confession. There was almost no punishment like now, which was uneasy. I just felt that the princess' methods were different from ordinary ladies and were much more powerful.

Yuan's premonition was correct. When she was uneasy, the maid in front of the princess came to her with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law Yuan, congratulations. The princess thought that you saved the little prince. Thank you. She specially ordered someone to take your husband's family and your mother's family to a small village in the suburbs. It will be much more convenient to go home to visit relatives in the future.

Lu Teng also said that both her mother's family and her husband's family were very grateful, and even brought her a handwritten letter from her husband.

In the letter, the husband said that the princes in the palace found something for both of their families, so they collected rent in the small village. The work was very easy. In the past, these jobs were done by Shifu who had signed contracts and had made contributions to the palace. Now they were extra mercy and they did not want their families to sign contracts.

The most important thing is that there is a school in the village where a few children can study, which is even more a great thing. Not only does the children of ordinary families have to go to private schools, but they don’t accept any of the gentlemen who are a little capable. The poor rarely support a real scholar, and most of them are taught occasionally by their families who can read.

As a woman who can read the letter, she has to attribute it to her mother who taught her since childhood as a scholar's daughter.

In the letter, we can see that my husband was very happy and said that it was all her credit. When she returned home in the future, everyone was grateful, especially her mother-in-law, who said that she had obtained such a daughter-in-law who had not known how many lifetimes of blessing her family had.

After reading the letter, Yuan became even more frightened and barely supported his smile and said a few words of gratitude to Lu Teng.

Lu Teng said, "Sister-in-law Yuan, this is all the grace of the princess, but they are all servants. I will tell you privately. The princess has always been clearly rewarded and punished, and is very tolerant. You see, the little prince almost had an accident, and she did not torture the servants she served at will. But once it is found out who did it, even if the princess is kind, the prince is not a ruthless person. Do you understand?"

"Miss Green Teng, what do you say..." Yuan's face turned pale in an instant. Why did she listen to Green Teng's words as a warning? Could it be that the princess knew something?

Lu Teng smiled as if nothing had happened: "Sister-in-law Yuan, if you can understand what I mean, you will naturally know how to do the best for yourself. If you can't understand, that's better. Sometimes it's rare to be confused, do you think?"

Yuan couldn't speak at once, and Lu Teng didn't say much, just asked her to rest well, and called the little maid who served her, and told the little maid to take good care of her, and just follow the person in charge of the business without being restricted.

After Lu Teng left, a group of people came to congratulate Yuan, saying that he had made great contributions and could enjoy the happiness of his family.
