Chapter 499: Xihuazhi 3

After Gu Yanxi returned to Prince Ling's Mansion, she found someone burning paper in her mother's yard. She later caught the person and confirmed that the fire was not caused by her mother's self-immolation.

According to Dong Da's account, a layer of white frost had formed on the doors and windows that had been burned in the princess's courtyard.

In recent years, several iced fruit shops have opened in the imperial capital. The ice used is made of saltpeter.

He had figured out the secret these days. The white frost on the doors and windows was caused by saltpeter.

In addition, when Hua Yi was paying his respects, the servant boy who followed him said that he had seen a nanny in his mother's courtyard before.

But my mother lives alone, without a nanny by her side. This person is likely the murderer.

With these two points, Gu Yanxi quickly found the nanny from that year. She also interrogated and found out that the mastermind behind the murder of her mother was Xiao.

If we extrapolate further, the real murderer is Prince Ling. After Xiao committed suicide, Gu Yanxi and Prince Ling also had a showdown.

Because Gu Yanxi kept investigating old matters, the emperor confined him to the palace on the pretext that he was disobeying Prince Ling.

The ice jelly shop was opened by a puppet. Chang Ran hoped that Gu Yanxi would notice the saltpeter early on and then find out that the fire that year was related to saltpeter.

As long as he finds out the truth, he will not always focus on the Hua family and inquire about the servant boy of that year.

Everyone was concerned about Hua Zhi and would not speak directly. Covering up like this would only arouse suspicion. Chang Ran simply threw out the clue about the saltpeter.

Changran has been paying attention to the situation of the palace, Gu Yanxi and Shaoyao.

After Shaoyao left Prince Ling's mansion alone, she followed the location of the little puppet and came near her. Seeing that Shaoyao had eaten without paying and was being held by the stall owner, he quickly stepped forward to help and paid.

Thinking that Gu Yanxi was more cautious and would definitely ask Shaoyao about the situation later, Changran did everything in a thorough manner.

I first asked about Shaoyao's family situation, but didn't get any useful information. Then I took her to continue walking on the street, waiting for her family.

When it was almost dark, no one came to see Shaoyao, so Changran took her to the snack shop first.

Hua Zhi was waiting here. I asked the puppet to call her here.

After telling Hua Zhi about Shaoyao's situation, she handed the person over to her care. Chang Ran had often given her people over the years, and Hua Zhi was no longer surprised. Fu Dong and Nian Qiu had come this way. It was just that this one was staying by her side temporarily, and was not a maid, but a guest.

Hua Zhi doesn't have Mi Qiu by her side now, only Nian Qiu. Chang Ran also gave her a one-step solution.

Fudong Changran found it early in the morning. After she was sold out by her father, he bought her when he saw the time was right. This made her suffer much less than in the drama.

After that, he asked her to go to his restaurant first and learn from the chef for a while before bringing her back to the Hua Mansion. Considering that it would not be good to keep her by his side, he gave her to Hua Zhi. However, he still often asked Fu Dong to help him cook.

If she comes up with a new dish, the chef at the church restaurant will also give her a commission.

The restaurant was opened jointly by himself and Bai Mingxia.

Bai Mingxia is now considered his subordinate. Chang Ran asked the puppet to find this person early in the morning and let him come to work in his restaurant.

Since he became the shopkeeper, he became a partner and received profit sharing.

Fudong and Bai Mingxia knew each other from the beginning. Changran looked for Bai Mingxia because, firstly, he didn't want to ruin their marriage. Secondly, he was a good person and wanted him to suffer less. Of course, in the end, it was also because Bai Mingxia was capable and could help make money.
