Chapter 1050 Deeper Investigation (Part Two)
Qi Ruihai bowed to Yun Shang and left.
Yun Shang opened her hand and looked at the piece of paper in her hand. She was confused. Could it
be that what Lady Cao said was true? Lady Li did avoid the eyes of Qian Zhuo and Qin Yi and secretly
imprinted some private seals.
Of course, there was another possibility. Lady Cao, or Lady Li, secretly took the paper with a private
seal and asked someone to secretly carve a fake seal.
Yun Shang squinted her eyes and called Qian Liu.

Qian Liu came in in a hurry from the outside. Yun Shang ordered, "Go to the Imperial Household
Department and ask Qin Yi to send someone to investigate in Lady Cao''s pce and Xiangyi Pce to
see if anyone has left the Pce in recent months?"
It was getting dark. Luo Qingyan sent someone to tell Yun Shang that he would go back to Weiyang
Pcete tonight and ask her to have dinner by herself.
Yun Shang had dinner early, and Qin Yi came as soon as she finished it.
"Your majesty, I''ve got the result of what Qian Liu asked me to investigate. When your majesty were not
in the Pce, I was afraid that someone would take the opportunity to make trouble in the pce, so I
ordered all the servants not to go out to visit their rtives. Only the servants in the imperial household
department could go out of the pce for work. As a result, no one in the two pces has left the
Imperial Pce recently. " Qin Yi replied softly.
This result was a little beyond Yun Shang''s expectation. Yun Shang frowned and said, "That''s strange."
While they were talking, Pei Lan reported from outside, "Your majesty, the Neishi Bureau has sent us a
pamphlet."
Yun Shang nodded. It must be the pamphlet that recorded the detailed information of Ming Qiann. Yun
Shang asked Pei Lan to bring it in, and then she took it over and read it carefully.
Ming Qian was from the Jin City, and her parents were still there. However, she had many brothers.
They couldn''t afford to raise so many children because of the poverty in their family. As a daughter, she
was naturally abandoned. Fortunately, her parents were still kind. They didn''t have the heart to sell her
to other ces and suffer. In the end, they sent her to the pce, hoping that she could have enough
food and warm clothes.
Yun Shang took the paper and writing brush, copied the relevant information on the pamphlet, and
handed it to Qin Yi. "Investigate."
Qin Yi took it over. After thinking for a while, Yun Shang took out another piece of paper and sealed it
with her private seal. Then she gave it to Qin Yi, "Go to every all the carving shops in the city and
asked them if there is anyone who has paid them to engrave a seal like this one recently. If there is, we
must find out who it is. "
Qin Yi took it and looked at the seal. She pondered for a moment and said, "If someone wants to carve
the seal, I''m afraid they have to find a ce where they can trust and won''t leak the news. If they are
found, they will be put into jail."
"Well, how could others know that this is my private seal. My name is engraved on it in the characters
of the State of Ning. I''m afraid very few people can recognize it. Besides, if the seal is fake, the two
most suspicious people don''t have any connections outside the pce, and they can''t find the ce
you said. " Yun Shang pressed her lips and said in a low voice.
Qin Yi nodded, bowed to Yun Shang, and left. As soon as Qin Yi left, Qian Yin rushed in, her eyes full
of anxiety. "Your majesty, the guard is missing."
Yun Shang''s hand paused for a moment, frowning. But her voice was very calm. "Can''t you keep an
eye on anyone?"
Qian Zhuo hurriedly knelt down and said, "It''s my fault. I''ve asked the spy to keep an eye on him. But
the guard went to the bathroom and disappeared."
"A living person shouldn''t have disappeared from the pce. Investigate." Yun Shang said coldly.
On the second day, Yun Shang got some responses.
First, Qi Ruihai had interrogated the other three people in Ming Qian''s room. Qi Ruihai must be a
resourceful man since he had been in the Neishi Bureau for so many years. The three maids had been
locked up for a night, and finally someone couldn''t bear to tell the truth.
Someone confessed that it was a secret known by all the people in their room. They didn''t ask because
they knew Ming Qian sent letters on behalf of Lady Li.
Lady Li was not born high, and her parents were far away from the Jin city. She was just a low-ranked
concubine before, so her family members were not qualified to visit her, and she was unable to leave
the pce. She had not seen her family for a long time.
That imperial guard came from the same hometown as Lady Li. Although the discipline of imperial
guards was strict, it was okay to send letters back to their hometown. However, as a concubine, Lady Li
couldn''t have much interaction with the guard, so she always asked Ming Qian to secretly asked Ming
Qian to give letters to the guard and ask him to send to her family.
Since it was Lady Li''s order, the other three didn''t dare to say anything, just pretending not to know.
The second news was bout Ming Qian''s family. Recently, Ming Qian did not go out to visit her family,
but the secret guard found something. Two months ago, one of Ming Qian''s brother was lured into a
gambling house and became addicted to gambling. A month ago, he lost a lot of money in the gambling
house, but because he didn''t have enough money, he was blocked in the street by the people of the
gambling house and beaten randomly. However, the fifteenth Princess who went out of the pce
saved him.
