Gongzi Yi looked at the message Liu Ying gave him in a daze. He was curious about how Liu Ying knew that there was something wrong with Xiang Concubine's identity.

Not even his intelligence network knew about this!

"Young Master, we have found out that the identity of this concubine is indeed false, but Liao Ai, the official minister, knows about it." Chou Weng was obviously excited, "Liao Ai's daughter is named Liao Qing'er. At that time, Liao Ai Ai was still the Minister of Rites, and Liao Qing'er was on the list of beautiful ladies, but before entering the palace, Liao Qing'er eloped with someone, and because of this, Liao Ai's wife also fell seriously ill."

"So the current concubine Xiang is not Liao Qing'er at all." Gongzi Yi said in a low voice, his expression under the mask was a little gloomy.

"That's right, today's Xiang concubine's real name is Nu'er. She is an orphan. She was sold into a brothel and was later rescued by the King of Jin. It was also a coincidence that the longer the slave grew, the more she looked like Liao Qing'er, so later Liao Qing'er eloped with someone. The King of Jin sent the girl to the Liao family, which solved Liao Ai's urgent need."

Young Master Yi said coldly, "That's why Liao Ai has been following King Jin all these years, and with the help of King Jin, he became the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."

The Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the appointment, removal, promotion, transfer and assessment of civil and military officials. Liao Ai has created many benefits for the King of Jin. Every New Year, Liao Ai helps the King of Jin to move around among so many officials, big and small.

It seems that King Jin did save Liao Ai's family back then, but in fact, what Liao Ai gave him back over the years has long exceeded what he gave back then.

"Who did Liao Qing'er elope with back then?" Gongzi Yi asked after being silent for a moment.

The ugly man frowned and recalled, "It is said that he was an opera singer."

"Singing opera..." Gongzi Yi said with a cold expression, "Let's investigate Liao Qing'er's elopement. Maybe she didn't really elope."

"Young master, what are you talking about?" Chou Weng's eyes lit up, "I understand, I'll go investigate now."

If Liao Qing'er had not really eloped with someone back then, would Liao Ai still be so determined to follow King Jin after knowing it?

The answer is unknown, and everything will only be known after the ugly man investigates.

At this time, Shangguan Liuying was also investigating this matter. She only knew that Xiangbi's identity was false because she had overheard the queen and the third princess mentioning this matter in her previous life.

At that time, she was only engaged in romance with Xiao Rui and did not inquire about the matter carefully. Later, she heard that Xiang Concubine was related to Prince Jin, but she did not know the specific relationship.

She had an intuition that if she could find out the true identity of Xiangbi, she might be able to bring down King Jin.

In the study room of the General's Mansion.

Shangguan Liuying frowned slightly as she looked at the information Gongzi Yi investigated in her hand. Behind her, Honggu looked calm.

Now that Honggu has become the messenger between her and Gongzi Yi, she feels that it is much more convenient. Gongzi Yi's connections and power in the world are far beyond hers, and she also has advantages that Gongzi Yi does not have. !

"Your young master's intelligence network is quite powerful. The results of the investigation were obtained so quickly," Liu Ying said with some envy, "Hong Gu, I would also like to trouble you to bring him a message. I will wait at the Yuelai Restaurant tomorrow for Shenshi. he."

"Okay, miss."

Hong Gu is very satisfied with her current position. At least she no longer needs to secretly send messages back. Now she can deliver messages openly.

Shangguan Liuying had seen the results of Gongziyi's investigation and combined it with the information she knew in her previous life, and she could roughly guess the cause and effect of the whole incident.

It's just that she is not sure what Gongzi Yi's purpose is now. She wants to overthrow King Jin because she wants revenge, but what about Gongzi Yi?

She was not even sure whether Gongzi Yi had this idea. She still remembered that the Palace of Hell rejected her request to assassinate the prince, so she needed to confirm some things with Gongzi Yi in person.

The next day, the weather was fine.

Shangguan Liuying went to Yuelai Winery at the agreed time.

Gongzi Yi arrived a while earlier, still wearing a mask. When he saw Liu Ying, he said calmly, "What do you want from me?"

"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?" Liu Ying sat down with an inexplicable expression.

Gongzi Yi gave her a strange look, but fortunately he was wearing a mask and Liu Ying couldn't see his expression.

"Of course," he said in a low voice, "you have to be more open about the old lady's affairs."

Hearing him mention her grandmother, Liu Ying looked sad, "I have to thank you for this. Thank you for entrusting Zhang's doctor to me."

Thank you also for rushing back regardless of your own physical condition, just to allow her to send her grandmother off for the last time!

Liuying did not say this sentence, but said it silently in her heart.

Gongzi Yi's voice became softer and softer, "It's also a coincidence, I just happened to bump into the hands of the Palace of Hell..."

"Since you mentioned the Palace of Hell, I have one more thing to ask you," Liu Ying stared closely into Gong Ziyi's eyes, "Will the Palace of Hell kill the prince?"

Young Master Yi's pupils shrank sharply, and the room was extremely quiet for a moment. After a moment, he uttered one word, "Yes."

Liuying breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. The answer did not disappoint her.

The Palace of Hell caused a lot of trouble for the prince in his previous life, so it makes no sense that he has changed his mind in this life.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. After confirming that Gongzi Yi and the prince were hostile, Liu Ying could join forces with Gongzi Yi without any scruples.

"Don't you ask me why?" Young Master Yi's dark pupils reflected Liu Ying's figure.

The corner of Liu Ying's mouth raised slightly, and Li Duo said plainly, "Why do you ask? If you don't want to say it, it's useless for me to ask. If you want to say it, then even if I don't ask, won't you just stop talking?"

Does she really not want to know the reason?

of course not!

She just felt that everyone had their own secrets, just like she also had secrets that she didn’t want to tell Gongzi Yi!

Gongzi Yi looked deeply at Liuying, "You asked me to investigate Xiangbi's identity because you want to deal with Prince Jin? If Prince Jin is eliminated, it might be even harder for the Crown Prince to deal with her."

Liuying smiled mysteriously, "No, now it seems that King Jin can indeed create trouble for the prince, but he will still lose to the prince in the end. There are too many hidden dangers in him, and it is enough for the prince to find any one." He drank a pot."

After all, King Jin was defeated by the prince in his previous life!

At this point, she suddenly looked directly at Gongzi Yi, "I think you are the one who can make the prince disappear!"

Young Master Yi's heart suddenly tightened when he heard this, "You..."

Seeing his nervous look, Liuying suddenly smiled, "What's wrong? Am I wrong? There are so many masters in the Palace of Hell. If you want to kill him, wouldn't it be easy?"

In Shangguan Liuying's heart, the Palace of Hell is the one who can finally deal with the prince, because if it weren't for her father's intervention in her previous life, the prince would have died in the hands of the Palace of Hell!

She will definitely not let her father get involved in it again in this life, so she feels that only Gongzi Yi can make the prince disappear!

Gongzi Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Shangguan Liuying knew his identity!

It turned out to be just a false alarm...
