After binding the mistress system, raise cubs and train husbands in the mansion
Chapter 179 The rumor collapsed on its own
After hearing this, Yun Zhihan remained calm. Wasn't King Fenyang's trick too outdated?
He wants to damage the reputation of the Xie family by spreading rumors. Doesn't he know that this is an imperial decree?
"Ma'am, what should we do now?"
"Isn't this easy? Have the restaurant prepare cakes and drinks, and put a message at the door saying that the emperor has issued an order to grant the marriage between the third young master and the shopkeeper. To thank the people for their support, the Xie family can have as much cakes and drinks as they want within a month."
"Yes, ma'am. But isn't the cost too high?" The ingredients used in the restaurant are not cheap.
"It doesn't matter. It's worth using money to buy fame."
"Yes, I will do it right away."
"Wait a moment!" Yun Zhihan ordered, "Call a few more people, beat the drums and play the suona, and let as many people as possible know."
"Don't worry, ma'am, I will make sure it's arranged."
The servant ran out smiling, it was thanks to the madam that the matter was resolved so quickly.
"Tongzi, how many dead servants are there in the hands of Prince Fenyang in Shangjing now?"
"Hanhan, there aren't many left, but there is a very difficult person, the commander of the secret guards around Prince Fenyang. He is highly skilled in martial arts, vicious and cruel, and is quite difficult to deal with."
"After he discovered that the prince's men were planted in the Xie Mansion, he never showed up, and always let others take action."
"A cautious one indeed."
However, for Yun Zhihan, this is a good thing. After all, Yun Yan is at home. If the two meet, her identity may be exposed.
After thinking for a moment, she called Jinshang to her side.
"Jin Shang, help me do something."
"Ma'am, please speak."
Yun Zhihan whispered a few words in his ear.
When Jin Shang heard this, his mind was full of question marks, "Madam, what does this mean?"
"Lue the snake out of its hole."
She seemed to understand, but since it was the Madam's request, Jinshang naturally could not be vague.
……
Wangfu.
After Prince Fenyang returned to the capital, he paid his respects to the Emperor and the Crown Prince. He did not see any unusual expressions on their faces, and he felt quite relaxed.
It seems that the information Yun Zhihan knows is limited.
However, this matter cannot be taken lightly. What if she has not had time to pass on the message, or it is said that the emperor's brother and the prince are acting in front of him just to make him let down his guard.
At night, Zuo Teng came to visit.
"Your subordinate greets the prince." He was terrified as he had not completed his mission and did not know how the prince would deal with him.
King Fenyang looked at him coldly, "Zuo Teng, how are you doing with the task I asked you to do?"
"I am incompetent and have failed the prince's trust!"
"Hmph! Waste!" King Fenyang smashed the teacup in his hand on his head, and a stream of blood flowed from Zuo Teng's head.
"Please punish me, my lord!"
"What did I tell you before I left? How did you solemnly promise me that? And what are you doing now?"
Zuo Teng was indeed speechless. When he heard that the person he was going to assassinate was Yun Zhihan, he didn't feel too much shock. After all, it was just a woman, so what was so difficult about that?
But after starting the operation, he found that this mission was much more difficult than he had imagined.
He even felt that the other party really had the power of prophecy. He could guess the day when he would take action every time and accurately identify the person who would do it.
After three consecutive mistakes, he didn't dare to make another shot easily.
Although Deadpool's bottom line is to keep his mouth shut and never reveal the identity of his master.
But there might be some who are not good at beatings or torture and tell others about the prince and himself. Then the prince would probably skin them alive.
"Your Majesty, Yun Zhihan is a little weird..."
"Oh? What's strange? Tell me." King Fenyang suppressed the fear in his heart. Could it be that Zuo Teng also discovered something unusual?
Zuo Teng did not dare to hide anything and told the prince in detail about the assassination missions.
"I really don't know what went wrong. Every operation was very secretive, and my subordinates were assigned on a temporary basis. There shouldn't be any loopholes."
"Besides, even if mistakes were made, it's impossible for us to fail every time. But that woman seemed to know all the arrangements of her subordinates. She had already placed helpers before we took action, waiting for the brothers to be caught."
"What's even more strange is that the guards in Xie's mansion don't look like thugs from ordinary official families. They are more like elite soldiers of the royal family. They are all skilled in martial arts and they protect Xie's mansion very well."
"I just can't find a suitable opportunity to take action. If I fail again, I'm afraid they will trace it back to the palace."
After hearing this, Prince Fenyang felt a chill down his spine. Could this woman really have supernatural powers?
"Did you find anything unusual about this person during your operation?"
Zuo Teng thought about it and shook his head, "No, she is no different from an ordinary lady from a noble family. But she is kinder and more considerate to her servants than an ordinary lady."
"Oh." Prince Fenyang let out a long sigh. Was his plan of rebellion going to fail this time?
But he had no way back. If what Zuo Teng said was true, then whether he took action or not, his brother the emperor and the prince must have known his purpose, and he was undoubtedly waiting to die.
But if they fight their way out, there might still be a glimmer of hope. After all, the Southern Kingdom’s military strength should not be underestimated.
"By the way, is there any news about Dongyue Kingdom recently?"
“Your Highness, there was a small problem in Dongyue Kingdom…” Zuo Teng’s voice was very low.
King Fenyang asked, "What's the problem?"
"Dongyue, the prince of Dongyue is Tuoba Hong, and all our spies have been killed."
"What?" This sudden news caught him off guard. How could it be possible? What on earth had happened?
"Have the people sent out found out any news?"
"No, no." Zuo Teng became less and less confident as he spoke, "Your Majesty, Dongyue is no longer reliable. They will not launch an attack against Da Zhou."
Prince Fenyang slumped in his chair, carefully recalling everything that had happened in the past. Since when did Yun Zhihan become the core figure of the entire incident?
Did she have any hand in the Dongyue Kingdom incident? If so, when did it start?
His brain was about to explode, but he couldn't figure out the connection between the two. Now he could only pray that the people's rumors would temporarily cause trouble for the Xie family.
This way, he would have enough time to investigate.
At this moment, the chief secretary knocked on the door and came in.
"Your Majesty!"
"Why are you here so late at night?"
"Your Majesty, the rumors about the Xie family have been refuted."
"How could this happen?" Prince Fenyang was completely upset.
"The people knew it was the emperor's decree, so they didn't dare to make any comments. In addition, Yunsheng Restaurant also treated the people to free drinks and cakes."
"Now the reputation of the Xie family has been completely reversed, and many poor people have taken the initiative to come to the restaurant to congratulate them."
The Chief Secretary watched the prince's face grow increasingly darker, and he wisely shut his mouth.
Seeing this, Zuo Teng on the side also lowered his head. He was now more and more certain that Yun Zhihan, this woman, had supernatural powers and was definitely a witch.
