Chapter 1833 Guess

   After finishing speaking, Chu Heng left. The middle-aged maid's hands trembled slightly, her face turned pale, but she breathed a sigh of relief.

  The guards waiting at the door saw Chu Heng coming out, and hurriedly whispered: "My lord, Master Xiao asked his subordinates to come over and tell you to come over."

"Um."

Chu Heng responded and walked to the interrogation room. It was quiet in the room at the moment, only Xiao Tianhao was there. When he saw Chu Heng approaching, he waved and waited for him to approach before handing him the information: "This It clearly records Concubine Yun's life experience, she is indeed innocent."

"In the third year of Yuankang, King Huainan met in Beidi. He was brought into the mansion because of his docile personality and gentle appearance. He looked like the deceased mother of King Huainan. His parents were a sixth-rank soldier in Beidi. Because of the war, her family died, and she was the only one left. King Huainan took pity on her alone, and stayed with her when she was in Beidi, letting her take care of her. Later, she was given the title of side concubine when she returned to the capital."

   "By the way, this Concubine Yun was in poor health and had difficulty conceiving. Now she has no heirs and has a good relationship with Princess Huainan. She stayed on purpose to take care of the eldest son and princess."

   "However, this concubine Yun is very low-key. She doesn't like to go out on weekdays. She has lived in the palace for a long time, but she is still in charge of the middle class in the palace. I heard that her temperament is really gentle."

   "Is there a portrait?" Chu Heng asked after looking through some files.

  Xiao Tianhao nodded: "Yes, this is it."

  Chu Heng picked up the portrait, looked at it silently for a while, and asked, "I remember that these materials are usually updated every few years. When was this portrait drawn?"

   "Five years ago." Xiao Tianhao answered very accurately. He was promoted to the head of the imperial guard for six years. He was responsible for updating the files this time, so he remembered it clearly.

   "What about the previous data? Are you still keeping it?"

Xiao Tianhao didn't understand why he asked this, "The previous information is preserved, but because it is a replacement content, there will be some missing, and they are all stored in the warehouse. It will take some time to find them. I will arrange for someone to go try to find."

   "When did the maid next to Concubine Yun enter the palace?" Chu Heng hummed and continued to ask.

  Xiao Tianhao knew that Chu Heng would ask this question a long time ago, so he took out a stack of documents from the wooden box next to him: "Fortunately, I ordered someone to investigate before."

   "This maid is called Chunqin, and she seems to have been with Concubine Yunce all along. She was the only maid who followed Concubine Yunce when she fled. This maid is Chunqin."

   "After entering the Huainan Prince's Mansion, he stayed in the mansion all the time, and rarely left the mansion on weekdays. He was very low-key."

"I have a doubt. This Chunqin is from southern Xinjiang after being disguised, and this disguise is definitely not something that ordinary people can do." Chu Heng pointed out the doubt in it, and asked Xiao Tianhao: "Do you think Chunqin is so powerful?" Why would someone from Southern Xinjiang be willing to stay in the Huainan Palace as a maid?"

  Xiao Tianhao raised his brows: "Could it be that Chunqin is a spy from Southern Xinjiang who deliberately stayed in the Huainan Palace to control the movements of my courtiers in Great Chu?"

  Chu Heng did not deny this guess, and continued to ask: "Also, don't you think that a maid called Chunqin looks too similar to Concubine Yun?"

   "Similar?" Xiao Tianhao stared at the portrait seriously for a while and then shook his head: "It's not like, how is it similar?"

  Chu Heng pointed at the portrait.
