C434 He Had Found Some Clues
For the next few days, Yu Longchen did not appear in front of Meng Qingdie again.
Meng Qingdie's heart was desolate. She was indeed the Empress's substitute. Hearing that the Empress's health was better, he did not come.
What was going on? Why did she become so concerned about him?
Before she could figure it out, she heard the sound of porcelain shattering. Naturally, it attracted her attention. Without thinking about it, she got up and went to ask about something.
"Guan, what's wrong with you? Why have you been so preoccupied recently?" Meng Faang and Guan were tidying up as they asked. Their tone was filled with concern.
Guan pursed her lips and her eyes flickered. She kept running away, "Nothing." She got up and was about to leave but was stopped by Meng Qingdie.
"But what happened? How can I help you if you don't tell me? This is the imperial palace of Dayong, not the Meng Clan. " Meng Qingdie cared about these two trusted aides the most.
"Your Ladyship, it's really nothing. Maybe it's because the water and soil are not good and the spirit is not good." Guan saw Meng Qingdie coming out and did not want to make excuses. Her tone was full of sincerity.
"We have already been in Dayong for almost a month and the water and soil are not good? Let me ask you, what do you think Bengong is to you?" Meng Qingdie pulled over a stool and stared at her without blinking.
... "" Guan probingly looked at her before lowering her head and respectfully saying, "Mistress."
"Since that is the case, how can you hide it from me?" Meng Qingdie was a little disappointed and her expression was not very good.
"Your Ladyship..." Guan lifted her head and knelt down. Tears swirled in her eyes. "A few days ago, I woke up at night due to the stomachache and went to the toilet. When I passed by the Imperial Garden, I saw two figures in the rockery on the left side of the Imperial Garden."
(The places the palace provides for palace maids and Gonggong to use the restroom are all centralized. The Imperial Palace is only distributed in four directions and in the middle. )
"This scared you to this extent?" Meng Qingdie was a little disappointed. Her confidant was naturally also a bold and careful person.
"They are good at some... things that are not allowed..." Guan lowered her voice even more and her voice also became much quieter.
"Maybe it is some palace maid and guard." Meng Qingdie lightly raised her eyebrows and slightly raised her head with a look of disdain.
"I also heard their conversation and their words seem to be from the palace's Your Ladyship..."
"You might be able to recognize who it is?" Meng Qingdie's interest was piqued. Her upper body leaned forward and looked at her. "Did you hear it clearly?"
"This servant is sure." Guan nodded, "From the sounds and those words, it seems to be Worthy Lady Lyi."
Meng Qingdie leaned on the chair and crossed her legs. Her eyebrows were slightly raised and her eyes were somewhat ghostly, "You might have found out if she has made any movements recently? "
"This servant will try her best." There was no fear in Guan's eyes from the beginning.
Meng Qingdie saw her doubt and asked again, "You were discovered by her?"
Guan nodded and the fear in her eyes rolled out.
"She did something wrong. What are you afraid of? You have me to protect you." Meng Qingdie stood up and instructed Meng Faang, "Since Guan is being watched by her, I will let you investigate. Be careful."
"Yes." Meng Faang replied and exchanged glances with Guan.
This was the first major event Meng Qingdie encountered when she came to Dayong. If Worthy Lady Lyi's relationship was confirmed, her car would be broken.
Meng Qingdie was in a dilemma. Wasn't this too cruel to her?
There was still no news of the matter, but Worthy Lady Lyi went to the door.
"I heard that younger sister has free time today. I also came to see younger sister." Worthy Lady Lyi's eyes casually glanced a few times with contempt.
"Thank you elder sister." Meng Qingdie smiled gently and looked at her playfully, "I heard that the imperial palace of Dayong focuses on etiquette the most. Although I call you elder sister, I am still a concubine. And elder sister is only a benefactor, elder sister should bow to this palace!"
"So what if I am a concubine? Younger sister has already lost the Emperor's favor and is still so arrogant." Worthy Lady Lyi turned her face away and her face was clearly filled with anger.
" Could it be that elder sister was favoured by the Emperor? " Meng Qingdie coldly snorted and took a few steps forward, "If elder sister did not bow and spread the news out, I'm afraid that the Emperor will not like elder sister."
Worthy Lady Lyi gritted her teeth and looked at her as she perfunctorily called out, "Greeting Consort Qing." The bow was also not very proper.
Meng Qingdie did not mind. Anyway, she had stepped on her head.
Worthy Lady Lyi's gaze turned and saw Guan who had just come over. The expression on her face moved, "Younger sister's servant looks very familiar."
"Elder sister often comes to the hall so naturally I have seen her before. It is not strange." Meng Qingdie walked in front of her and blocked her gaze.
Guan saw that Worthy Lady Lyi lowered her head and there was fear in her eyes. Carrying the things, she quickly walked in.
Worthy Lady Lyi wanted to enter the hall but Meng Qingdie directly blocked in front of her, "What does the benefactor want to do?"
"Ah." Worthy Lady Lyi knocked away Meng Qingdie's shoulder and quickly walked in.
Meng Qingdie also wanted to see what she wanted to do and did not stop her. Just as she reached the door, she heard Guan begging for mercy, "This servant did not do it on purpose. Worthy Lady Lyi, please spare my life."
"Bitch! She could not even carry the things properly! Someone come and send it to the Punishment Bureau! "Worthy Lady Lyi took a step in front of Meng Qingdie and entered the room.
Meng Qingdie naturally saw it clearly. She was the one who rammed into Guan.
" Stop! What qualifications do you have? How dare you punish the people in my palace! " Meng Qingdie tightly held Worthy Lady Lyi's raised hand, "Bengong saw it clearly. Worthy Lady Lyi bumped into Bengong's maidservant. Why did Worthy Lady Lyi still have a reason? "
" I am Mistress, and she is bitch. Younger sister could not even differentiate this right? "Worthy Lady Lyi wrinkled her brows and her hands were in pain from being pinched by her," It is her... "
Before Worthy Lady Lyi could finish half of her sentence, Meng Qingdie snatched the right to speak, "If Worthy Lady Lyi wants to make this matter big, you can go and invite the Emperor to make a decision now and see if the Emperor believes in Bengong or Worthy Lady Lyi!"
Worthy Lady Lyi saw Meng Qingdie's strong attitude and also knew in her heart who Yu Longchen would help but there was always a wave of anger that she could not swallow.
Meng Qingdie saw that her attitude softened and let go of her hand.
But at that moment Worthy Lady Lyi rushed over and gave Guan a fierce slap, "This is a warning for you!"
Guan covered her red and swollen face and did not dare to speak.
When Meng Qingdie heard that sound, the anger in her heart rose. It was not like she could hit her, "Is it enough? Can I get lost now? If Worthy Lady Lyi does not leave by herself, Bengong does not mind 'sending' Worthy Lady Lyi away!"
Worthy Lady Lyi succeeded and left. In the end, she did not forget to boast," You better be careful! "
It was unknown whether it was for Meng Qingdie or Guan.
Meng Qingdie looked at her back and asked sternly, "Meng Faang, do you have any news? "
Initially she thought that the car fracture was too cruel to her but now it seemed that she deserved to die!
"There is no definite date or news, I only saw the palace maids by Worthy Lady Lyi's side sneaking around yesterday." Meng Faang had already tried her best. This was still the Dayong after all.
"Then it should be in these two days." Meng Qingdie lowered her head to look at Guan who was crying and her tone softened, "Guan, tonight and tomorrow night, bring me to the place where we found them."
"Yes." Guan first nodded and then shook her head, "Your Ladyship still do not want to go. We can just go."
"If I don't go, I don't know if she will kill you guys." Meng Qingdie's face was serious.
