Chapter 1031: Catch the thief, catch the dirty, catch the adulterer, catch the couple
In fact, it is very normal for young palace maids and eunuchs to disappear in the palace.
Therefore, no one in the palace paid attention to it over the years, and always thought that the young maid was executed by her master because she was incompetent.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs will not interfere too much.
At worst, if there are fewer people in that palace, we can just add more.
It now seems that the Queen Mother consumes a lot, so the people in the palace are not satisfied at all.
Shen Xia asked: "What should we do about this?"
The princess shook her head and said, "Just pretend we don't know. We can't act rashly now. After all, His Majesty is very suspicious of us. This time the incident has become a big deal, and it is Lord Zheng who is responsible. They should not take action again recently. People's hearts are shaken now, and the little girl is also alert, so it won't be so easy for anything to happen."
Shen Xia: "Mother, you said that if we get rid of that Taoist priest who makes pills, there will be no more girls going missing."
The princess thought for a moment and said, "This is a good idea."
But she doesn't have many followers in the capital anymore.
All were delivered.
Not many people can use it.
Plus, there are quite a few spies in the mansion.
Shen Xia understood her mother's dilemma: "Since mother thinks this is a good idea. Don't worry, mother, I will think of the most appropriate way."
The princess nodded: "Well, mother knows you have many ways, but you can't be careless."
"it is good."
The eldest princess knew that Shen Xia had a space and her special things.
As for why he did not explain his life experience to the eldest princess.
In her opinion, she was not an imposter, so there was no need to explain, the princess was her mother.
She didn't know about her physical condition before, and she thought about whether she should explain it to Taiqing, but she was afraid that it would make Her Royal Highness the Princess sad.
But now it seems that it is her no matter in the past life or this life.
They are mother and daughter, so there is no need to explain so much.
After Shen Xia chatted with the eldest princess.
Just left.
After she left, she remembered the nanny beside the queen and why she felt familiar.
I can't think clearly at the moment.
I wanted to ask the princess, but I forgot.
If you forget, just ask next time.
Shen Xia returned to her own yard and looked at Li Yi's yard with the door closed while she was in the garden.
I don't know when he will go back.
Zheng Jinshu followed the escaped woman.
Finally, a large number of girls' bodies were found in a villa in the capital, piled up like hundreds.
According to the coroner's autopsy, they were all unmarried girls.
There definitely aren't so many missing girls in the capital, so they must have been sent from other places.
The people in the capital are in a state of uncertainty.
The little girl doesn't dare go out alone anymore.
Of course, among the missing girls cases reported in the capital, only a few bodies had not yet decayed.
Three of them are the missing girls in the capital.
The others have all turned into corpses.
I heard that all the blood in his body was drained.
The death was extremely cruel.
Of course, His Majesty is alarmed by such a big case, and such a vicious criminal must be brought to justice.
Since Shen Xia attends classes at the academy every day, she can still hear what news is going on outside.
next day
Shen Xia has asked Ling Heng to find out where the person in charge of refining the elixir is?
There just hasn't been any evidence yet.
After finishing breakfast, Shen Xia was about to go to the academy with Ling Heng.
Then, Steward Ming came in in a panic: "Princess, Madam Ji is here. I heard that something happened to the beauty."
Shen Xia frowned: "Okay."
Shen Xia walked towards the front yard nervously.
Then Xia Shuran was seen stamping her feet anxiously in the main hall.
"Sister Xia, what's wrong?"
Xia Shuran looked at Shen Xia and told her about the attack on Beauty Maker.
"I don't know where the rumor came from, but it says that the recent missing girl case is related to us."
Shen Xia frowned: "What do you mean?"
"They say that the missing girl had her blood drained out in order to keep her youth forever, and our products can indeed make people more beautiful, so it can be said that it is the work of Shengshi Fanhua and Meiren Manufacturing."
"And the entrance to the Beauty Factory was crowded with people."
Shen Xia listened to Xia Shuran's words and thought of this method.
It seems that this was planned for a long time in advance.
I didn't hear about this rumor yesterday, but today they raided their store. I guess there must be a loophole.
This is an attempt to put the blame on them.
Haha...I encountered the ancient version of crisis PR.
How could this matter be counterattacked? Shen Xia believed that there must be a place for alchemy in the Queen Mother's palace.
How can the Queen Mother's place be searched?
But she suffered such a big loss, and even if the matter was explained clearly, it would still be affected in the end. Unless the real culprit was found, their store would never be cleared of suspicion.
Shen Xia turned around and looked at Ling Heng next to her: "Ah Heng, go into the academy and ask for leave for me. I will go tomorrow. I have something to deal with first."
Ling Heng looked at Luo Ye: "Go to the academy and ask for leave." Then he looked at Shen Xia: "Li Yi is not here, I will accompany you."
Seeing that he insisted, Shen Xia thought it was good to have Ling Heng around.
Several people went to the store together, but as soon as they walked out, they saw Gu Ziyan.
"Sister Ziyan, why are you here?"
Gu Ziyan pointed at Shen Xia and Xia Shuran anxiously: "I heard that something happened in the store, so I wanted to come and take a look."
Shen Xia: "Sister Ziyan, it's okay, you can go back! It's a bit chaotic over there now, there are a lot of people, what if something unexpected happens."
"No, I'm worried about you." Gu Ziyan.
Shen Xia saw that Gu Ziyan insisted and there was nothing she could do.
I think she feels even more uneasy at home.
So I let her go along.
Shen Xia looked at Xia Shuran: "Have you reported it to the police?"
Xia Shuran nodded: "I have reported it."
It’s time for beauty manufacturing.
The entrance to the pavilion has been blocked.
Shen Xia brought a few guards with him.
They were all tall and strong and carried swords.
Everyone squeezed to the innermost part.
Seeing the mess at the door, it seemed that a fight had already taken place.
The guard at the door looked at Shen Xia and saluted: "Princess."
"Well, you are not hurt!"
When everyone heard that the princess cared about them, they felt relieved instantly.
"fine."
Shen Xia took a look inside.
Nothing happened at all: "You have done a great job, each of you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."
Everyone's originally gloomy eyes brightened.
Shen Xia turned around and saw a person lying on the ground.
The people around were looking at Shen Xia and his group with anger on their faces.
"You are simply bullying others by taking advantage of your power."
"Yes, they treat the people like grass."
"Return the lives of thousands of young girls."
"That's right, you are simply devils and executioners."
There were also a few ragged men and women nearby, crying, "Give me back my daughter's life."
"Return your life, return your life......"
Ling Heng raised his hand.
Shen Xia was beside him and put his hand down.
"I can do it myself. I'll call you when I need you."
Ling Heng: "Okay! Don't be too kind."
The more merciful you are to some people, the more they will demand more.
Shen Xia looked at the guard next to him: "What's wrong with him?"
The guard next to him bowed and replied, "He brought a group of people to smash the store, so he was beaten out by his men."
Shen Xia looked at everyone and said, "My store was smashed, and I can't fight back?"
Shen Xia looked at the people in front of him sharply.
One person said arrogantly: "Your black shop should be closed down. Using the lives of young girls to exchange for money is simply worthy of being cut into pieces. Can the princess treat the lives of ordinary people as worthless?"
Shen Xia curled her lips and looked at him: "As we all know, to catch a thief, we must catch the stolen goods; to catch an adulterer, we must catch both of them. Tell me! Evidence?"
