After the first three people had finished talking, the funeral procession continued, and during this time, the sheds of the other road offerings stopped one by one to thank them. After that, he passed by the Chang Liu Street and arrived there in the end.
Because the Mianan Temple's previous self was a Royal temple, some people from the still stayed as An Ling after they died. He spent three days in the temple trying to find a way to get his hands on the altar before he was buried in the Royal Tomb.
"Back then, whoever said it was all settled!" It was the voice of the Empress Dowager.
"Perhaps …" Maybe it's just a coincidence. " The voice was hesitant, and it sounded uncertain.
The empress dowager gave a cold snort, her voice filled with coldness. "If any of the people by her side were to survive, then when the day comes that the emperor finds out, you and Wailing Home won't even need their heads anymore!"
That person quickly kowtowed and said while trembling, "This old servant will go investigate right now." With that, he left.
Huai Jin anxiously pulled Ran Mei along, and walked out of the Jubilee Palace Palace. After walking a distance, she turned around, and saw a strange nanny coming out. She greeted hurriedly, and left with her head lowered.
Just then, the door of the hall was opened, and the empress dowager also saw Huai Jin. Huai Jin walked into the hall, turned a blind eye to the broken ground inside, and only reported back to the Esteemed Empress Dowager about the funeral with a sorrowful expression.
When she found out that Ruan Qinghe had stayed in the Mianan Temple to guard the spirit, the empress dowager was slightly relieved.
When everything was reported, Huai Jin saw that the empress dowager's expression was serious, and didn't want to waste time talking with him, so she bowed and took her leave.
"Have you arranged for the Zhu Yu beside Ping Yang?"
Just as Huai Jin was about to leave the great hall, she heard the empress dowager behind her suddenly ask. She could only turn around and continue to report to the empress dowager.
"Everything has been arranged, including the Prince Consort's family members."
The empress dowager had been nervous just a moment ago, but now she merely gave an indifferent grunt of acknowledgement. After a long while, she sighed heavily again and suddenly raised her head to look at Huai Jin.
"Ping Er... Are you willing to do one thing for Wailing Home? "
Huai Jin thought about what she had heard at the wall just now. His eyes suddenly tightened and her head lowered as she covered the surprise in his eyes, looking like she was obedient.
"Ping Er is willing to do anything Esteemed Empress Dowager wants him."
When the Empress Mother heard this, she nodded but did not speak.
Yang mama had good eyesight as he brought Ran Mei out of the hall and closed the doors.
When there was no one else around, the empress dowager slowly spoke with a gloomy face.
"Ping Er, help Wailing Home investigate Ping Yang's death."
Huai Jin was shocked when she heard this.
The empress dowager then explained to Huai Jin in a slightly cold voice, as if she was immersed in the chilliness of hell, and her voice echoed in Huai Jin's ears for a long time.
She asked Huai Jin to investigate Ruan Qinghe exceptionally.
However, the empress dowager didn't say the specific reason behind her suspicion that Ruan Qinghe had harmed Ping Yang. She merely asked him to clean up his belongings tonight, and tomorrow, using the excuse of tidying up his belongings, she would stay in the Grand Princess Mansion to investigate Ruan Qinghe until things were clear.
When Yuwen Fei found out that Huai Jin was heading to the Grand Princess Mansion to clean up Ping Yang's belongings, he also sent someone to give Huai Jin a drawing of a jade pendant, telling her to definitely find this thing among Ping Yang's possessions.
Although Huai Jin did not know what kind of item this jade pendant was, she still memorized the style of the jade pendant carefully.
After waiting until the second day to consult with the empress dowager, Huai Jin left the palace and headed towards Grand Princess Mansion.
Although Ruan Qinghe was not present, the butler had seen Huai Jin accompanying the empress dowager before. When he found out that Huai Jin was helping the empress dowager organize the things in the Grand Princess, he welcomed her courteously.
Huai Jin first went to Ping Yang's room, then ordered people to take out all of the things Ping Yang usually used to.
The servants of Princess Mansion swiftly organized the items and placed them in front of Huai Jin. Huai Jin first went over to the box of paintings, picked up a few that Ping Yang had made herself, and told the others to put them away. She then walked to the box and carefully selected the jade pendant.
But Huai Jin was still unable to find the jade pendant that was drawn on the map when Yuwen Fei sent the message last night. She couldn't help but frown, and her sharp eyes swept across the people in front of him, and she coldly said: "Big Sister Ping Yang's jade pendant is here?"
Butler quickly replied: "They are all here."
Huai Jin held her hands together, and stared unblinkingly at the servants of Princess Mansion, causing everyone's hair to stand on end. After a long while, she said faintly, "These few days, Princess Mansion was in a state of fresh loss, with a mixed population. I suppose there are things that have been lost."
The butler stood at the side silently. Listening to his tone, he also understood that Huai Jin must have known what caused him to speak in such a manner, so even if the butler was not strict, he would still be responsible.
The servants below were all trembling under the pressure under Huai Jin. Some of them took the chance to take things from him, while others that did not, were afraid that they would be implicated with him if they did.
In the end, someone could no longer withstand the pressure and stood out.
"When this servant was working, I accidentally broke a Seven Glorious Dragon's Jade Temple." The servant girl immediately fell to her knees, her head almost buried in the ground.
With her at the front, other people also stepped forward. He should be the one who was most familiar with the affairs of the manor, but now, he was no match for a princess who had only been to Princess Mansion twice.
Huai Jin heard the people below confess one by one, but she did not hear anyone mention anything about the jade pendant. Waiting until no one else stood out, Huai Jin still stood to the side in silence.
"Princess, what do you think we should do with these people?" The butler approached Huai Jin with a smile.
Huai Jin was not very interested in these people, she only said indifferently: "As per the rules of the house, let's do it as usual."
When the butler saw this, he had a plan. He then dealt with everyone as per usual. The commotion lasted for a while longer, and by the time it was all over, it was already noon.
Huai Jin stayed in the Princess Mansion to eat, and after eating, she continued to inspect Ping Yang's things, all the way until the evening when she still did not find the jade pendant.
