Chapter 70 The truth behind the scenes
Chu Yunning's eyelids were twitching so he went straight to Boss Han after getting on the carriage.
When I saw Boss Han standing intact in front of her, I breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you worried about? I have been so accidentally plotted after so many years of traveling?"
Boss Han smiled heartily: "Don't worry, my grandmother Jing didn't realize that I was making trouble behind the scenes. What kind of storm can she cause?"
"You can't say this, be careful in everything."
Boss Han patted Chu Yunning on the shoulder:
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
After the two of them simply reminisced about the past, Chu Yunning left.
I met Prince Mo again on the way.
"I haven't seen each other for a long time. How are Miss Chu going to be recently?" Prince Mo smiled warmly and looked good.
Chu Yunning smiled slightly: "It's still the same."
"Don't hide it from me. Why did you make such a big noise in a few days after I left Beijing?" Prince Mo raised his thumbs up, looking doting and helpless.
"Crown Prince Mo is too worried." Chu Yunning shook his head.
"Are you still seeing me?" Prince Mo leaned on his back with one hand: "I might help you with some things."
Chu Yunning was still worried about the mysterious man in Nanshan, and he almost got angry to death without finding a helper.
"I won't bother Prince Mo anymore, I don't need help for the time being."
"My mother knows something about the late emperor and Jingniang," said Prince Mo.
Chu Yunning suddenly stopped and gritted his teeth: "I would like to ask the prince to help me introduce him and let me meet the princess."
After one hour
When Chu Yunning met Princess Changyang, she stood up and saluted: "Princess."
In terms of identity, she is still Princess Xiao, so she doesn't have to salute the princess at all, but if she wants to ask others, she can bow her head temporarily.
Princess Changyang waved her hand: "Sit down first, we don't have to see each other when we fight many times."
Chu Yunning smiled awkwardly and sat in the lower position of Princess Changyang.
"I know you want to deal with Jing Niang, but you can't do anything to her."
Princess Changyang's tone was filled with smugness, and his fingertips hit the table, his lips raised, and he stopped talking.
Chu Yunning took a deep breath. She had fought with Princess Changyang several times. She knew exactly what the other party was.
There is no free lunch in the world!
"But for Mo'er's sake, I can consider helping you." Princess Changyang casually held the tea and said leisurely: "No one in this world except me, no one knows how many people the late emperor sent to protect Jingniang."
Chu Yunning held his breath and asked, "Can the princess tell me one or two?"
"It's okay to help you, but I have a request." Princess Changyang paused and waited for the other party to answer the conversation.
But after waiting for a long time, Chu Yunning didn't say anything, so Princess Changyang couldn't help it: "
I want you to find a way to restore my identity for me, and I will definitely speak out and say everything."
Chu Yunning frowned. The position of the eldest princess was not so easy to recover.
"Okay! I promise you!" Chu Yunning responded.
"I want you to swear!"
Chu Yunning pursed his lips tightly and raised three fingers: "If everything the princess said is true, I will do everything I can to help the princess restore the position of the eldest princess."
"Okay. I believe you once!" Princess Changyang laughed, and then talked about the story of Jing Niang again.
"Jing Niang is the legitimate daughter of the Li family. She is quite favored in the family. She originally had a good marriage. A few days before the marriage, Jing Niang went up the mountain to pray for blessings and saved the life of the late emperor. Somehow, she was seen. Jing Niang was resigned by her in-laws on the grounds of being unpredictable. That's not all. In the middle of the night, the groom's family felt that she had lost face. In anger, she colluded with bandits and killed eighty people in the family of Jing Niang."
"Jing Niang was also very injured and was rescued by the madam from Yihonglou in the mass grave."
When Princess Changyang said this, he paused and Chu Yunning probably guessed that Jing Niang's treatment in Yihonglou must have been terrible during that period.
Jing Niang is beautiful, how could she escape the palm of the madam's hand?
"Jing Niang stayed in Yihonglou for two years and became the head courtesan of Yihonglou. People who came to find her flock to her. No one knew that Jing Niang was the daughter of the Li family back then. She only regarded it as two very similar people, and no one doubted it."
"Later Jingniang met the late emperor?"
Princess Changyang nodded: "Yes, the late emperor mistakenly thought that Jingniang was dead. Until one day the guards discovered that the courtesan in Yihong Building was exactly the same as the painting in the study of the late emperor. The late emperor then found that Jingniang was still alive. After thoroughly investigating the incident that year, he was angry and distressed. He wanted to take Jingniang into the palace and enthrone as a concubine, but Jingniang stayed in Fengchen for two years, how could he enter the palace?"
As soon as you enter the palace gate, the late emperor's pity is only temporary and cannot resist the attacks of civil and military officials.
So Jing Niang was very smart and did not agree to enter the palace, but continued to stay in Yihong Building.
But the next day, the madam Yihonglou died. Jingniang had many industries under her name and many secret guards were around her.
That's not all, the groom's family was in trouble and was punished with a serious crime of treason, implicating any of the three tribes.
The Li family was demoted three times in a row. If Jing Niang hadn't pleaded with her, the Li family would no longer exist.
Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows. Jing Niang did not keep the Li family because of her kind heart, but was used to torture the Li family slowly and venting from time to time.
Some deep hatreds do not make people feel relieved when they die.
Sometimes seeking death is liberation.
"The late emperor felt ashamed of Jing Niang, and would go to Yihong Building to sit every few days. Listen to the Qu'er to relieve her boredom. Jing Niang is very talented, and the late emperor once praised her for being a general!"
"Later, the queen came and sent someone to him. Yihonglou and stabbed Jingniang and almost died. The late emperor knew about it and then deposed the queen. Even the queen's son was sent to the bitter cold land. It was the turn of the emperor to take office!"
"The late emperor was in poor health since he was a child. When he was dying, he was worried that someone would be unfavorable to Jingniang, so he made the emperor swear that he would never be able to recover from Jingniang's life."
Chu Yunning probably understood and asked again: "Does the princess know how many secret guards there are around Jingniang?"
"Nine hundred people, all of them are good players who fight against a hundred."
Princess Changyang is the younger sister of the late emperor. After the whole incident that year, it is extremely clear.
There are nine hundred people, not too many, but they are hidden deep and difficult to find out. The people in the dark are the most difficult to guard against.
"If you want to deal with Jing Niang, you must find these nine hundred people. Otherwise, if Jing Niang dies unexpectedly, these nine hundred people will chase and kill at all costs and will never stop until death!"
Princess Changyang said: "This is why Jing Niang is rampant in the capital and no one dares to touch a hair."
It’s not that I can’t kill Jing Niang, but that the nine hundred people are difficult to deal with.
Chu Yunning fell into deep thought.
"If General Chu is here, maybe he can help you."
"My father?" Chu Yunning was surprised.
Princess Changyang said: "These nine hundred people also have a connection with your father, and they were transferred by your father."
Chu Yunning was shocked, as if he had heard a huge joke.
After spending time, the biggest boss was his father.
It's simply incredible.
"The late emperor died early, and I was worried that she would be wronged. If he knew about it, he would definitely not do this again."
Jingniang's greatest luck is that the late emperor died early.
I died when I owe her the most.
"Thank you, the princess, for telling me that I will never forget what I promised to the princess." Chu Yunning bowed and said goodbye.
Princess Changyang said lightly: "Even if you find General Chu, it's useless. At most, a few people are hurt. Some people have the intention to cover up. Even if you work hard, it will be futile."
Chu Yunning was puzzled.
"70% of the annual income of Yihonglou will be sent to the palace, and half of the property under Jingniang's name will be handed over. Do you think she can die?"
Princess Changyang stretched out his fingertips and plucked the tea leaves: "This throne is not his, but one that he picked up for his luck. Several princes below were eyeing him. The national treasury was already abundant. Some people took a large amount of silver every year. It was too late to protect such a person, so why would he bear to kill him?"
Although he didn't say who it was, Chu Yunning had already guessed it.
All the crimes of treason can be liberated, but the evidence is as strong as a mountain before us, but there is insufficient evidence.
Who else has this ability except the emperor who wants to protect himself and indulge him?
When King Hui died in the palace inexplicably, she felt strange.
Now I understand.
The emperor's heart is unfathomable, and it is not wrong at all.
"For the sake of your good friends and Mo'er, I will remind you that you have moved the bottom line of some people, and even brothers cannot escape the suspicion of rebellion."
Chu Yunning was shocked.
"You should go back and interrogate Ye Yan'er. Chu'er's death was not an accident."
Princess Changyang talked more and more, and Chu Yunning's heart almost burst out of her throat as she heard it: "
The princess means that the Ye family was bewitched by the emperor and set up a plan to kill Chu'er?"
"The emperor has no son, but you gave birth to a legitimate son. Do you think the emperor can tolerate this child?"
Chu Yunning had no doubt about Princess Changyang's words.
Chu'er died unexpectedly back then, and Beibei was also injured one after another. When he entered the palace, he was targeted by someone. The food at the Empress Dowager's banquet was poisoned, kidnapped, and almost became a eunuch, and assassinated. All of these are unclear.
Before, she had been unable to understand why Jingniang and Beibei had no grudges and no grudges, so why did she try her best to kidnap Beibei? In addition, the two pregnant people in the palace were pregnant, Chu Yunning dared not think deeply, and pregnancy may not be the real royal heir.
These two children came by a coincidence.
"I'll say that, you can go back and think about it." Princess Changyang winked at Prince Mo: "Send Miss Chu out."
