Chapter 896 Chapter 896
He Jiang was furious when he heard this.
"Really?"
Baocai nodded, tears that could not be wiped away slid down his small cheeks, "It was his first time entering the sect, and the young master did not want to meet him, but he was carrying a jade belt hook with a dragon pattern. The young master saw it, sighed, and had no choice but to let me bring Meng Xiaoxing in."
"What's the name of the person you said the eldest daughter of the Jin family is?"
"Meng Xiaoxing!"
Baocai told the story of Meng Xiaoxing's visit, half true and half false. "He said that the eldest lady already knows about it. Even if she dislikes you, she cannot tolerate your fiancé playing with a boy lover. If the young master doesn't know what's good for you, she will expose your affair with him. Let's see how the palace views you!"
"This bitch!"
Baocai wiped his tears with his sleeves, "Young Master has suffered some injustice, but the eldest lady won't give up, and she is still trying to control Young Master's future, saying that she will be the princess of the county in the future. If Young Master is a girl, it would be fine to leave her to the county prince to warm his bed, but -"
He Jiang was furious when he heard this.
He Liu was skeptical, but he calmly asked other questions, such as how many times he had met her and where she was the first time.
Baocai choked up and said, "The first time was at the young master's house, and Meng Xiaoxing came in person."
The second time, Baocai thought carefully and told the truth, "The eldest girl forced you to meet her, to say... to say... to say..."
He hesitated and dared not speak frankly.
He Liu raised his hand and was about to hit him, but the boy was so frightened that he covered his face and crouched down, "Boss, spare my life!"
He Jiang stopped He Liu and said, "Just say it!"
Baocai relied on his young age and honest face, and acted like he was scared and crying, looking cowardly, which made He Jiang and his servant lose their guard.
"Your Majesty, I am not good at speaking, but every word I say is true."
"Well, tell me."
Baocai choked up and said, "After the eldest lady met with the young master, she sent me to guard the door, but I was small, so I looked under the window outside so that I could watch the door and eavesdrop on what was going on in the inner room. I only heard that the eldest lady threatened my young master and told him to look for some documents proving collusion with the enemy in your study room—"
"what?"
He Jiang was furious when he heard this, "Is this really what Jin Fuyun said?"
Baocai nodded repeatedly, "If I dare to tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
"Why did she want to hurt me?"
After hearing this, Baocai murmured a few words and did not dare to speak directly.
He Jiang pointed at him and said, "Tell me what you think, or don't blame me for being harsh on your son."
Baocai lowered his head, "The eldest lady dislikes the prince in many ways, especially knowing the close relationship between the prince and my young master, she did not hide it at all, and threatened the young master with this. If you don't obey, when she enters the house, the first thing she will do is to kill the young master."
The young master came back, feeling depressed, and when threatened by the young lady again, he spoke bluntly.
Baocai learned how to speak from Song Youan, which basically said that the prince saved my life, and the eldest lady was using her status as the future mistress to force me. After all, I couldn't harm the prince, and if the eldest lady didn't tolerate him in the future, I would just leave on my own.
only……
Since we haven't gotten married yet, the longer we can stay together, the better.
"My lord, you have always been so infatuated. You know that the marriage between the prince and the eldest lady is beyond your control. Even if I tell you about it, it will only cause more trouble."
Baocai spoke fairly fluently, and what he said was generally clear.
He Liu frowned, "No matter how capable the eldest lady is, she can't kill your young master alive, not to mention the prince is here, why is your young master so impatient?"
Baocai choked up, "The prince treats you well, it can't be said. But the more this happens, the more you worry about losing. What's more, the young lady is so powerful. Her reputation has been damaged so much, but she can still get married——"
"Your young master was frightened by just a few words. It's useless."
He Liu was angry, "If it weren't for your young master causing trouble, the prince would not have fallen to this point!"
Baocai sobbed softly, "Young Master, how could I have expected that the young lady also intended to prevent the prince from living——"
"Hey, Sixth Brother, forget it. You and I have seen An Lang's personality for many years. Why don't you understand?"
He Liu was speechless and couldn't respond for a moment.
Baocai cried so hard that he hiccuped, and only stopped crying when He Jiang became annoyed and asked him to get up and serve Song Youan.
But before leaving, Baocai said cautiously, "Miss, you dare to harm even the prince, let alone my son..."
In one sentence, it was like an epiphany.
He Jiang sighed, "Your son is just too stubborn. If he was a little more gentle and talked to me, how could I ignore him?"
I have had a recurring high fever since jumping into the well, and I have lost a lot of weight in the past few days.
He Liu was still feeling chilled and confused, so he called over the people who were serving Song Youan and asked them about the matter. All the people who knew about it matched up with the original information.
For example, the doorman met Meng Xiaoxing twice.
For example, the coachman and the horseman also took the young master to the teahouse for secret talks.
In short, he was able to handle everything that the young Baocai said. In the end, He Jiang had no doubts and was sure it was just a coincidence.
Besides, the incident has already happened, and Song Youan has already proved his innocence with his life, so why keep pursuing him?
Could it be possible that by killing Song Youan, we could return to the 22nd of the winter month?
He Jiang was exhausted both physically and mentally. Looking at Song Youan who was sick and suffering, he gave him a few instructions and then returned to the Prince's Mansion. From then on, he no longer paid attention to the matter.
He did take the time to carefully test the palace's reaction.
Taking advantage of the Empress Dowager's improvement, he went to pay his respects, but was rejected by Liu Zhuang twice. Facing Princess Fuman, He Jiang thought of his scandal with Jin Fuyun and blushed before he could say a word. He gritted his teeth and exchanged a few words of greeting before fleeing.
"How dare you come to pay respects to the Queen Mother? How shameless."
Aunt Xing looked around and spat quietly, seeing that there was no one around. Liu Zhuang sighed softly, "This matter has not been investigated yet, and the full picture is unknown. It may not be what Prince Yong wants."
Aunt Xing sighed, "If it weren't for him, would the eldest daughter of the Jin family have even ruined her own reputation?"
In the palace, especially in front of the Queen Mother, people only heard rumors about what happened in Yingxue Pavilion.
Liu Zhuang shook her head. "Aunt knows what the prince likes. Besides... the eldest girl is his fiancée. Why rush at this moment? I'm afraid there's something else going on."
Aunt Xing stepped forward to support Liu Zhuang, "Princess, let's rest in the palace. It's cold outside."
After entering Liu Zhuang's own palace and sending away the maid, the master and servant sat on the couch and began to talk in detail, "Everyone in the palace is forbidden to talk about this matter, but there are always people who mention it in private. I didn't hear it all. It was also the people in Prince An's Mansion who spread some rumors in, saying that the prince knelt down in front of the emperor and cried that this scandal had tainted my sister's old house and my father's funeral."
"You must tell our people not to ask questions and not to gossip about other people's affairs."
