Yun Lei said, "Ms. Jiang now lives in the former Wei family mansion in Xinghua Lane."
"No one knows yet that Miss Jiang lives there."
"But it's a coincidence that Your Highness has a separate courtyard there, and it's a neighbor of Miss Jiang's courtyard."
Yun Lei couldn't help but sigh at this fate.
Invisibly, His Highness and Miss Jiang became neighbors.
Yan Jiyou said in a clear and gentle voice: "Then let's clean up that yard first."
"Your Highness, are you going to live there?"
Yan Jiyou whispered: "Yeah!"
You really have to live there.
"But there will be a banquet in the palace on New Year's Day, and Your Highness will have to go to the palace."
His Highness is now in good health, and they, his subordinates, are very happy.
Moreover, this time when the emperor called him into the palace, he saw that His Highness was in much better health.
The Emperor naturally wants His Highness to return to the court.
This time His Highness did not refuse.
The situation is indeed becoming serious.
It's related to southern Xinjiang.
Yan Jiyou said: "After I leave the palace, I will go to the courtyard in Xinghua Lane!"
Yun Lei's heart was shocked.
Your Highness, do you want to spend the New Year with Miss Jiang as her neighbor?
Looking at His Highness's expression, Yun Lei understood that this was probably what His Highness was thinking.
"Did Dr. Luo say anything?"
"This person is very tight-lipped and wants to die. He won't say anything. I feel he may not dare to say anything."
Yan Jiyou said: "For such a person to be sent from Southern Xinjiang to the capital, it is obvious that the person must have some leverage over him and his weak spot, so he will not easily say anything."
"Where is the old lady of Yongping Marquis?"
Yun Lei said, "She couldn't bear it anymore and told him everything. She said the man was called Teng Luo and that they met when they went to Beijing to take the imperial examination..."
"And some of the things she said are similar to what Miss Jiang found out."
"But the medicine she used to harm the old marquis was also sent to her by Teng Luo."
Yan Jiyou drank tea and pointed at the table, "So maybe it was all a premeditated plan!"
"Premeditated?"
Yun Lei was stunned, and thought about it carefully, "Your Highness, are you saying that Su Peipei has been used by that Teng Luo from the beginning?"
Yan Jiyou said calmly: "Well, going to Beijing to take the exam was fake, and eloping with Su Peipei was fake. The purpose was just to let Su Peipei marry into the Marquis' Mansion."
Yun Lei felt as if there was a thunder explosion above his head and he couldn't believe it.
"If that's the case, then this Teng Luo is too scary. He actually became the high priest of Southern Xinjiang."
"But what is his purpose?"
Yan Jiyou was holding a book on military strategy from the previous dynasty in his hand.
"Perhaps it is these things, or perhaps the Yongping Marquis Mansion hides a bigger secret."
"Killing the old marquis, replacing the bloodline of the marquis' mansion, and concealing the truth are all serious matters. If there wasn't someone helping her behind the scenes, do you think she could have done it?"
"So I'm keeping a close eye on Yongping Hou. I want to see what kind of conspiracy is behind this."
At this time, Yan Jiyou even suspected that the conspiracy against Jiang Zhinian three years ago was also related to Southern Xinjiang.
Because that night, the medicine Jiang Zhinian planted was too unique.
So much so that he helped with the detoxification, and his body had problems.
Even the best doctor in the capital, Imperial Physician Miao, couldn't do anything about it.
Many things, if you think about them carefully, are like being trapped in a net.
Yun Lei thought about it carefully and shuddered with fear.
I dare not think too deeply about this matter. The more I think about it, the more I feel that there is a deeper conspiracy.
"Yes, the old Marquis of Yongping was able to participate in the regent's rebellion case and escape unscathed. He is not an ordinary person and his strategies and tactics are first-rate."
"Su Peipei alone can't kill him."
"Also, the time when Su Peipei met him was quite coincidental. It just so happened that the old marquis's first wife died at that time. Not long after that, he met Su Peipei and fell in love with her at first sight."
Given the sensitivity of their investigations, this was not a simple matter.
The old marquis had seen all kinds of beauties when he was young, so how could he fall in love with someone like Su Peipei?
It's like he has lost his mind.
Moreover, even if the Marquis's Mansion was in decline, if the old Marquis at that time investigated carefully, he would be able to find out the Su family's tricks.
But I can't find it out.
Even their investigation didn't reveal anything.
If Miss Jiang hadn't revealed some key points, they might not have known.
Unless someone erased all traces.
Yan Jiyou said calmly: "I have always known that the witchcraft in Southern Xinjiang is very powerful, and today I have glimpsed some clues."
It is no wonder that our ancestor emperor issued an order to ban witchcraft.
"So what your Highness means is that someone may have used witchcraft on the old marquis at that time, which is why the old marquis fell into it."
"Did Su Peipei also fall victim to the witchcraft?"
Yun Lei felt it necessary to check.
Yan Jiyou said, "No, if there was, I couldn't hide it from her!"
This "she" was naturally referring to Jiang Zhinian.
Yes, Miss Jiang’s medical skills are so great that she can even cure His Highness’ illness.
If Su Peipei was poisoned, Miss Jiang should be able to tell.
"So that means Su Peipei really likes that Teng Luo."
"Your Highness, do we need to arrest that Mrs. Qiu and her husband for interrogation?"
Yan Jiyou said: "No need, keep them so that we can send a message to Southern Xinjiang. I want to see if he will arrange for someone to rescue Su Peipei."
"Whether they save it or not, they're going to lose this game."
"Since they have placed someone like Su Peipei, they may have also placed others in some noble families."
Yun Lei understood immediately, "Yes, if we rescue them, it will definitely expose the people they have planted for so many years, and we can follow the clues to find more people."
"If we don't save him, some of the chess pieces he has arranged will see the situation clearly and may not be as loyal as before."
"This Su Peipei is really useful, but she is also very well hidden. Probably no one knows that Yongping Hou has such a thing."
Yun Lei could imagine what kind of uproar would be caused if Murong Chuan's background was revealed.
Perhaps many noble families will conduct internal investigations.
Everyone will become suspicious.
However, this is also good for His Highness, as it can reorganize the power of some of the aristocratic families.
……
Jiang Zhinian didn't know all this, so the next day he asked someone to go to the farm to prepare some tofu and asked Mother Lin to deliver it to the neighbors.
When she went out, Jiang Zhinian also heard everyone's discussion about her.
The news of Jiang Zhinian and Murong Chuan's divorce spread throughout the capital.
When people heard the news after dinner or while walking on the street, they would stop and say a few words.
"Is this news really false?"
"Miss Jiang left the Marquis' Mansion?"
"Marquis Yongping vowed at the beginning that he would not take a concubine and would only marry Miss Jiang. He also said that he would treat Miss Jiang well. How long has it been since he changed his mind?"
"This matter is not just the fault of the Marquis, it is also the fault of Miss Jiang, that is why the Marquis divorced her. Miss Jiang has no reputation left to live on."
"What nonsense are you talking about? That's a divorce. Miss Jiang did nothing wrong. It was the Marquis who went too far, favoring his concubine over his wife and breaking his promise. That's why Miss Jiang couldn't bear it."
"Miss Jiang did the right thing."
"Hey, twenty years ago, General Wu also favored his concubine and killed his wife. Madam Wu at that time divorced him."
"Mrs. Wu is the daughter of the Grand Tutor and a talented woman. It's okay for Miss Jiang to do so."
