Red Mansion and Crimson Pearl

Chapter 239: Expose the Bloody Case

Jue Shan was stunned: "Who is the princess talking about?"

"Prince Beijing." Daiyu was very direct.

Jueshan only thought for three or five breaths, then slowly nodded:

"Because of the marriage proposal, Prince Beijing and the princess have been at loggerheads.

“Besides, Jia Hua used the four surnames to start his career, so he should have been under the command of Prince Beijing.

"He helped Prince Zhongshun accomplish such a great feat six years ago, Prince Beijing must have heard about it.

"If we want to make Prince Beijing believe that Jia and Prince Zhongshun have done something sinister in private, they would have already joined forces.

"I'm afraid his first thought was not to bring these two people to justice, but how to use this incident to make these two people his own people."

Daiyu frowned and turned to look at Aunt Meng: "Prince Beijing and Prince Zhongshun have always been at odds with each other. What is the reason?"

"It's not for anything." Aunt Meng said simply, "It's just to win favor in front of the Lord."

Chu Qian glanced at her, and his expression changed from usual respect to disgust: "Auntie, I don't know the bottom of the matter, don't say anything nonsense."

Aunt Meng looked at him strangely and said, "I'll give you a chance to speak again." As she spoke, she placed her hand on the needle bag at her waist.

Chu Qi stared at her hand, thought for a moment, and said:

“There are other rumors about this matter, but there is no actual evidence.

"The most popular one is that the conflict between the two dates back to the previous generation, but I don't know if it's true."

Daiyu smiled.

Chu Qi continued, “However, as far as I know, these two factions have huge forces.

"Although it cannot be called a fight to the death, it is absolutely impossible for them to shake hands and make peace."

Jueshan's eyes lit up: "That's great!"

Daiyu curled the corners of her mouth.

Jueshan stood up, put his hands together, bowed, thanked him, and said goodbye: "Princess, you don't have to do anything.

“I will wait until the princess leaves, and then tell Prince Beijing about this matter.

“Anyone who claims to be smart is bound to be suspicious.

"He will do it."

Daiyu smiled: "The monk is also a smart man."

The two said goodbye briefly.

From beginning to end, Jueshan didn't drink a sip of tea or touch a piece of cake.

Chu Qian sent him out.

Aunt Meng walked outside, picked up the unfinished tea, drank it all in one gulp, and frowned:

"Qingwen is so stingy. She actually made the worst tea at home for the monk."

Daiyu sat in the chair without moving, thinking deeply about the cause and effect of the whole incident.

It seemed that many people knew about this matter, and many of them even knew more than himself and Miaoyu.

It's because I know a lot that I don't care.

For example, Jia Yuanchun, for example, Prince Beijing.

What he had to do now was to turn this matter about Miaoyu's family, which was known to everyone in secret but not touched openly, into a bloody case known to everyone in the world.

Once a case is filed and once it is clearly linked to Prince Zhongshun and Jia Yucun, those "smart people" who were unwilling to offend the Supreme Lord will surely jump out and grab the greatest credit and gain the most benefits for themselves.

Daiyu figured out the key points and breathed a sigh of relief. When she stood up, she saw Chu Qian coming back and ordered him:

"Later, go to the prefect's house and tell him half of what the monk said today."

Chu Qian was stunned: "Which half?"

"Of course it's the half that's related to Miaoyu's family." Aunt Meng looked at him like a fool. "What does the Zhen family's affairs have to do with the governor of Suzhou?"

Daiyu sighed and held her forehead: "Wrong."

Chu Qian smiled and nodded, "Yes. I understand." His eyes quickly passed over Aunt Meng, and he turned and strode out, "I'll go and urge the princess to prepare lunch."

He actually slipped away.

Aunt Meng rolled up her sleeves in anger: "This guy! How dare he look down on me!"

Daiyu smiled helplessly: "Aunt, what we are doing now is hiding, not revealing.

"Please control your temper."

Aunt Meng curled her lips and said, “When it comes to conspiracy and trickery, I can never compare to Gong Zhengsi.

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have been driven out back then."

Daiyu couldn't help asking, "Actually, I never knew why my aunt left the Queen Mother."

Aunt Meng choked, and after a long while, she snorted, “Although my medical skills are fine, I have a bad temper.

“The Queen Mother also had a quick temper, so she doted on me a lot.

"But the more she acted like that, the more trouble I got into.

"Later, there was a time when the eldest sons of the emperor fought for the throne and caused great chaos.

“I don’t know who instigated them, but they suddenly wanted to get rid of the current emperor.

"I heard something that had nothing to do with the Queen Mother.

"I rescued the emperor first, and then took him back to the Queen Mother's Palace.

“In this case, none of those rascals’ mothers will spare the Queen Mother.

"The Queen Mother was in danger several times, and the Emperor was anxious, so he first sent me to the Shangshan Bureau.

"Then he deposed the then queen. Not long after, he deposed the crown prince and made the current emperor the heir.

"In this way, I can walk around the palace with my head held high even though I saved the prince.

“But the Grand Master absolutely refused to allow me to return to the Queen Mother, fearing that I would cause trouble for her again.

"After that, I stayed in the Shangshen Bureau and didn't interact with the Empress Dowager and the Crown Prince. On the surface, it seemed that our friendship was fading. That's why Xia Shouzhong dared to bully me by relying on the Empress.

"I originally thought that the palace was too boring, so I might as well go out and see patients myself. That's why I didn't go to talk to the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

"Otherwise, even if I wanted the Imperial Hospital, relying on my relationship with the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, it probably wouldn't be a problem."

When she said this, a smug look flashed across Aunt Meng's face.

Daiyu laughed: "I am so disrespectful, I am disrespectful to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor's lifesaver in person! I have always been negligent, please don't blame me, aunt!"

Aunt Meng waved her hand loudly: "That's all."

He touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry. I'm going to eat. You can take a walk."

He actually walked away.

Zijuan came in from outside, walked up to Daiyu with a smile, and asked softly: "My princess, after lunch, do you want to take a rest?

"Jing Bo outside wants to come in to report on the matter at the manor, I asked him to wait a moment."

Daiyu nodded: "I need to sleep for a while. I need to finish the work tonight and worship my ancestors tomorrow. You can tell Jing Bo to wait until Xia Yuan is over."

Zijuan nodded in agreement, helped Daiyu out of the door, and told Qingwen to go out and tell Jingbo.

Qingwen happily arrived at the second gate and told Lin Jing, "The princess walked too much yesterday, and her legs are still sore."

Lin Jing nodded repeatedly: "Then let the princess have a good rest." After thinking about it, he asked again, "Has the monk come?"

"Here it comes." Qingwen hurriedly told Lin Jing about the Zhen family incident and sighed, "The princess was deeply moved after hearing this."

Lin Jing stroked his beard and frowned: "In this case, it is confirmed that he is a descendant of the Zhen family.

"Then how can she be the concubine of Xue's eldest son?

"If the Zhen family knew about this, they would probably turn against the Xue family."

"Falling out! That would be great!" Qingwen laughed and hurried back to tell Daiyu this.
