Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

"Your Highness, the man on the bed is dead. He was hacked to death by the Ghost-faced Yama. Miss Yun was covered in blood and was carried away by the Ghost-faced Yama."

The maid who led the way took the opportunity to escape when the scene became chaotic, and no one knew where she went.

"Princess. Someone from the Dali Division has arrived. It's Lord Pei himself." The guard reported.

"Quickly tell Lord Pei," the princess said anxiously

"Your Majesty, I, Pei Qinhu, the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, greet Her Royal Highness the Princess. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health. Please have your men protect the scene. I will begin the investigation now."

After Pei Qinhu understood what was going on, he said, "Please ask the maid who led the way to come up and answer the question." At this time, everyone realized that the maid who led the way had disappeared.

Yun Ruyan was terrified. If this matter was traced back to her, the charge of murdering her younger sister would be enough to ruin her. If she was thrown into jail, her life would be over. How many women who came out of jail would be still intact? Yun Ruyan's palms were sweating coldly when she thought of this. She looked at her maid and asked. The maid looked at Yun Ruyan and nodded slightly, indicating that Yun Ruyan could not worry, as the matter had been dealt with.

The guards searched everywhere for the missing maid, and finally found her in a well. She was already dead. The guards fished out the maid's body and brought it to Pei Qinhu.

Yun Ruyan saw that the maid was dead, and finally felt relieved. She knelt in front of Pei Qinhu, the Junior Judge of the Dali Division, and cried, "Please, sir, please investigate this matter and give me justice." She acted out the deep love between sisters.

Pei Qinhu frowned and said, "Please stand up, Miss. I will do my best to investigate this matter. I will ask questions next, so please cooperate."

"What was the identity of this dead maid? Whose maid was she?" Pei Qinhu asked.

Everyone looked at each other and said, since none of them were their maids, only the Second Prince panicked a little and thought to himself, "Fortunately, she was bought from outside, and now she is dead and there is no evidence, so I should not be able to trace her back. But why did Yun Ruyan insist on harming Yun Yuxi? Could it be that the bitch is still thinking about my uncle? It seems that I have to teach her a lesson. Right now, I am still thinking about how to get out of this. If my aunt knew that she was involved in this, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with this matter." Thinking of his uncle, the Second Prince was even more frightened, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

It was confirmed that the deceased maid was not from the princess's mansion, nor was she a servant of any other mansion. It was the maid who paid a nanny in the princess's mansion who secretly let the maid in.

The housekeeper saw that the truth had been revealed, and she knelt on the ground, trembling, and said, "Princess, please spare my life. I only accepted the silver and let this person in. This maid said that she was the maid of the second young lady of the prime minister's mansion. I was greedy and did something wrong. I didn't know that this damn maid was here to murder the second young lady. Please investigate clearly, princess, and Lord Pei, please investigate clearly."

The princess was furious and kicked the housekeeper to the ground. She said, "Someone, beat this stubborn slave to death with sticks and throw him to a mass grave to feed the wild dogs."

The guard stepped forward and dragged the housekeeper out, "Your Highness, please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again..." The hysterical plea for mercy echoed in everyone's ears.

"Your Highness, the clues have been cut off and the parties involved are dead. Your Highness, please tell me what to do. Where is Second Miss Yun now? I would like to ask her to come out and question her."

The guard stepped forward and said, "Sir, the second Miss Yun was rescued by the Ghost-faced Yama. Her current whereabouts are unknown."

It was getting late. The princess asked everyone to leave.

The matter ended there.

Yun Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion with her cousin, Yun Jinxi, Yun Ruyu and the other ladies from other families.

When the second prince saw Yun Ruyan's graceful figure leaving, he revealed an ambiguous smile.
