Seeing him frowning, Lu Yingfeng knew he was brainstorming, so she gave him time to think, and continued after a while: "Not only that, there have been pebbles on the road these days, and I almost slipped several times. Fortunately, Tinglan and others were helpful. Yesterday, Sixi, who was beside me, also found musk kernels buried in several newly delivered flower pots. Xiao Xiangzi and Xiao Tangzi also found that there were always pebbles in the yard recently. Yesterday, they stayed up all night and found that the pebbles were thrown in from outside. But the other party ran fast, so they only hit him on the back of the head with the pebbles, but failed to catch up with him."

Lu Yingfeng timidly grasped Yinzhen's clothes and said in a soft voice, "Master, I am scared."

With so many tricks, I wonder if it was done by several people or just one person. If it was done by one person, then it would be too scary for such a person to exist in his backyard.

Moreover, the person who can control the large kitchen and the garden must be the one in charge of managing the affairs of the royal palace.

Now the household is managed by Fu Jin and Nian Fu Jin. One of them is Rouze's sister, and the other is Nian Gengyao's sister whom he needs. Neither of them can be touched.

Thinking of this, Yinzhen felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness in his heart.

Now is the critical moment in the fight for the throne, and nothing can go wrong in his backyard, otherwise he will be blamed for the unrest in the inner court.

We still need to send someone to investigate. But Yinzhen also has to prepare for the worst. He looked at Lu Yingfeng with guilt in his eyes and patted the back of her hand, thinking that even if it was found out that those two did it, she would have to bear the consequences.

"I will send someone to investigate this matter. Come with me to the front yard for dinner today. I will ask Su Peisheng to personally arrange a small kitchen and a few cooks for you. From now on, your food will be from me, and the cooks will not be in the hands of Concubine's people."

"Speaking of this, I just remembered. You are already a concubine, and you should have two first-class maids, two second-class maids, and four eunuchs. The concubine neglected to assign you the right people. I will also tell Su Peisheng to make the arrangements. It's going to snow soon, and the roads will be slippery in cold weather. I will tell the concubine that you don't have to go to the main courtyard to pay respects since you are pregnant."

In this way, even Yinzhen could give him an explanation.

Lu Yingfeng knew the truth in his heart. Not to mention that Concubine De in the palace helped to clean up the mess, Yinzhen would not be able to find out. Even if he found out, he would help Concubine Fu to conceal it in order to stabilize the backyard.

Therefore, Lu Yingfeng never thought of using this opportunity to bring down the concubine. He just wanted to plant a suspicion in Yinzhen's heart and gain some benefits for himself.

Now, her Yue Ming Xuan has a small kitchen and a cook selected for her by Su Peisheng, so she doesn’t have to worry about food anymore.

Moreover, Yinzhen also ordered Su Peisheng to provide her with servants. With Su Peisheng's help, those people must be Yinzhen's men.

This way, she can rest assured.

After the two of them had dinner, Lv Yingfeng didn't want to stay in the front yard any longer, so she said she wanted to go back to Yuemingxuan. Yinzhen asked Xiao Xiazi to follow her with a bunch of clothing materials and jewelry. Lv Yingfeng got the benefits and happily packed them up and put them into the warehouse, but another batch of porcelain in Fujin's courtyard was broken.

"That bitch Lu actually went to the prince to make a decision! She was able to find out the incompatibility of food and musk, it's definitely not a simple thing! If I hadn't reacted quickly just now, the prince would have suspected me!"

"Don't worry, Madam. As soon as I heard that Madam Lu had invited the prince, I immediately cleaned up the mess. Even if the prince investigates, he will only find the house next door." Jianqiu comforted.

After Fu Jin vented her anger, she felt relieved, but her head felt like it was being pricked by needles. She knew that her old illness was coming back, but she continued, "It's just that the prince is already concerned, so Lu can't move for the time being."

Jianqiu, as the captain's capable assistant, was already familiar with the job, so she rubbed Fu Jin's head while saying quietly, "Don't worry, Fu Jin. A pregnancy lasts for ten months, and Fu Jin Lu is only three months pregnant. There's still a long time to go. Even if we can't move her for the time being, she will still give birth."

"Well, we need to make arrangements with the midwife."

"Yes, I have remembered this."

Before having dinner with Lu Yingfeng, Yinzhen had already asked Su Peisheng to investigate.

Lu Yingfeng actually knew who the people who attacked her were. But she also knew that with Su Peisheng's ability, some people could be found out, while others could not.

For example, as for the person who threw the pebble, Lu Yingfeng made the clues so obvious, so Su Peisheng immediately took people to search the heads of all the eunuchs in the yard, and finally found the person in Li Fujin's Qingyin Courtyard.

Su Peisheng was smart enough to know that although there were pebbles on Qing'an Road and Yuemingxuan, the pebbles in these two places were not made by the same person. Because no matter how he looked at it, Su Peisheng felt that the act of throwing pebbles was stupid.

He was wondering how Mrs. Li could think of throwing pebbles into someone else's yard in the middle of the night? Didn't she think that the noise would be too loud and wake people up?

Although it is December now, there has only been one snowfall, which melted as soon as it hit the ground. There is no thick snow covering the ground, and the sound of stones falling on the ground is quite loud!

Look at how covertly people use food to counteract each other, bury musk in flower pots, and place pebbles on the Qingan Road, and then look at this!

However, this stupid and direct method of harming others really fits Li Fujin's character.

"Manager Su, why did you arrest Xiao Yingzi? Xiao Yingzi's head was accidentally hit in the middle of the night. Did you arrest the wrong person? It wasn't him who threw the pebble!"

Su Peisheng couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard this. He felt like he understood why the Third Prince was so... naive, he really looked like his mother ten percent.

"Li Fu-jin, I never said I wanted to arrest the person who threw the pebbles. How did you know that?"

"Ah?" Li Fujin realized that she was being evasive and collapsed to the ground in fear. She struggled to argue, "I heard it from others. Steward Su, it's none of my business. I know nothing."

"Li Fu-jin, please don't explain these things to me. Follow me to the front yard and explain them to the prince. The prince will be able to figure it out."

"Your Highness..." Mrs. Li felt so guilty that she refused to go to the front yard with Su Peisheng no matter what. She went straight into the main house without even asking about Xiao Yingzi.

Su Peisheng laughed and shook his head, this Mrs. Li!

Su Peisheng was just about to continue investigating the matter of another cobblestone when he heard Xiao Xiazi come to report that a woman from the kitchen had run away from the house. It was said that someone saw her running to the house next door.

Su Peisheng couldn't help but frown.

next door.

Isn’t that the Eighth Master’s Mansion?

Could it be that the old woman is the Eighth Master’s woman?

Su Peisheng had doubts in his heart, suspecting that someone had deliberately designed this to disrupt his attention. However, since the matter had already involved Mr. Ba, he could not continue to investigate.

We have to put aside the issue of food incompatibility for the time being.

Soon, someone came to report that a eunuch had died in the garden. Su Peisheng hurriedly followed up and found that the eunuch was newly sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and had been in the palace for less than half a year. Because he was taciturn and had no relatives, it was impossible to find out who he belonged to.

The clue of musk kernel was also lost.
