Qing Wanran immediately understood why Concubine Ling has been unknown since she entered the palace, never competing for favor, the person in her heart is no longer there, what is the use of her wanting these favors, she is just wasting her time in this deep palace.

"Then why are you doing this again now? Aren't you unwilling to fight for favor?"

"Because of my sister."

Qing Wanran was very puzzled by what Concubine Ling said, "What does it have to do with your sister whether you are favored or not?"

Unexpectedly, Concubine Ling would directly kneel down towards Qing Wanran, crying and saying: "My father sees that I am not favored in the palace and cannot bring glory and wealth to my younger brother, so he will send my younger sister who is not yet young. Going to be a concubine at the magistrate's house, I heard that that person is cruel, my sister would be worse than death if I went to him, so I thought that if I can be favored, if I can have a prince, my sister will not have to suffer such pain. "

After she finished speaking, she actually kowtowed and said as she kowtowed: "I beg the princess to save my sister. I will tell you anything the princess wants to know. I just beg the princess to save my sister."

Qing Wanran quickly helped her up, comfortingly said: "I will investigate, if the situation is true, I will definitely not spare your father and the prefect, you should stay here now."

Concubine Ling knew what Qing Wanran meant, and she wanted her to testify when she was needed, but she didn't care about that, her life had already been ruined, and she couldn't let her younger sister be ruined as well.

After Qing Wanran left Concubine Ling's place, she went directly to Jiang Yuan and explained these things to him. After Jiang Yuan's investigation, what Concubine Ling said was indeed true, and everything she said was confirmed. In addition, many evidences of Ling's concubine's father being corrupt and perverting the law were found. Even Ling's concubine's mother was poisoned to death by his wife.

"What else do you have to say?"

Jiang Yuan threw the results of the investigation in front of Concubine Ling's father, Su Ming. Facing the ironclad evidence, Su Ming had no choice but to accept his fate. Su Ming's wife, Mrs. Liu, was also taken away by Concubine Ling's biological mother because of poisoning her to death. Their son Su Feng is also a person who likes to find flowers and ask willows, and has ruined many women from good families. In this family, apart from the younger sister Ling, even the servants in the mansion have done all kinds of bad things.

"This Su Ming is just a magistrate of a neighboring county in the capital, why is he so lawless?"

Looking at the cases that were investigated, Qing Wanran couldn't believe her ears. If a county magistrate was like this, how terrible would others be?

"Actually, it's easy to hide with a sharp gun and hard to defend against a hidden arrow. There are many pairs of eyes staring at everyone in the capital, for fear of making a mistake. A county magistrate like Su Ming will not have such worries. No one will always stare at them. The common people have nothing to do with them, so they naturally dominate one side."

Jiang Yuan sighed, "Actually, if you go to a place farther away from the capital, you will find that there are many people who are more than Su Ming."

"What now?"

Qing Wanran has no extra time to think about things outside of the capital. What she has to do now is to overthrow Qing Xuerou and Mu Xinglang as soon as possible. Who said it, I probably don’t know.”

Jiang Yuan also fell into deep thought. Now there is no evidence that Su Ming is related to the magistrate. Even if they know who it is, they can't rush to find it. Not only will there be no results, but it will startle the snake.

Just as they were thinking, the guards brought over a little girl, "Princess, what should I do with this girl?"

The girl is Lingbi's younger sister named Su Xiang, but at the age of eleven or twelve, Qing Wanran looked at Su Xiang with an indescribable familiarity, but for a while she couldn't remember where she had seen this girl before, so she could only say : "This girl has nothing to do with those things, just leave it to me and the general."
