Chapter 555

"Hmm."

Cheng Shaoshang was taciturn toward this mother of hers.

She didn't like to talk much with her.

Although Xiao Yuanyi was a bit dissatisfied, considering that she had just been ill,

she endured it and didn't say anything.

Anyway, it didn't matter.

She would soon be married to Jia Hui.

In the future, they wouldn't be seeing each other often at home.

Of course,

with her secret relationship with Jia Hui,

there would certainly be plenty of opportunities to meet often.

But her daughter was already someone's wife.

The one in charge of discipline was Jia Hui and Qin Keqing.

She didn't need to worry too much.

However, she still planned to discipline Cheng Shaoshang strictly these few days!

Not letting her out of her sight to prevent her from running away again.

She had to make her understand the rules.

Otherwise, when she came to the Marquis of Wushuang's mansion, it wouldn't be good if she embarrassed her.

Supported by two maids, Cheng Shaoshang was about to get up and leave the Marquis of Wushuang's mansion to return to the Cheng family!

Just then, she suddenly thought of something and said to Jia Hui: "I met Prince Zhongshun on the street earlier, and I, along with Commander Hao Meng, had a conflict with him, and he was even taken to the Jingzhao Prefecture."

She was worried that Prince Zhongshun would be detrimental to Jia Hui.

So she spoke up to remind him.

Jia Hui was calm: "Hao Meng already told me just now; it doesn't matter."

It wasn't like he hadn't offended a Prince before.

Back then, hadn't he offended Prince Yu?

Now he had destroyed the Duke's mansion, the Minister of War, and imprisoned the Jingying Military Governor Wang Ziteng, and so on.

He was like a person with too many lice who doesn't itch, or a debtor who doesn't worry.

Because he didn't take it seriously at all!

However, since he had offended him,

he had the confidence.

But he wouldn't act as if nothing had happened.

It would be best to kill him off!

And as for Prince Zhongshun's mansion, Jiang Ji had already sent people to watch it.

Come to think of it,

Prince Zhongshun's mansion had even more eyes and ears in the Rongguo Prefecture!

He remembered,

this Prince Zhongshun knew every little detail of the Jia family and was the most direct person to bring down the Jia family.

Prince Zhongshun's Chief Clerk, in order to take back Jiang Yuhan, actually knew even such a small matter as Jiang Yuhan giving Jia Baoyu a sweatband, and look at Baoyu's reaction: Baoyu heard this and felt his soul fly away, stunned, thinking to himself: How did he know about this! Since he even knows such a secret matter, he probably can't be hidden from regarding other things; it's better to send him away, so he doesn't say anything else.

And Jia Zheng's reaction to this matter was also extremely accurate, which was that Baoyu's illicit affair with Jiang Yuhan might implicate him.

This shows how powerful the means of Prince Zhongshun's mansion were, how many eyes and ears they had, and how they exposed all the deeds of the Jia family at the most critical moment, becoming the crucial person for the Jia family's downfall.

However, afterward, when Jia Hui went to discuss with Jia Xu and the others,

Jia Xu had a different view: "Marquis, this Rongguo Prefecture has become like a sieve; the greatest possibility is not that Prince Zhongshun has many undercover agents, but that the Emperor himself has many undercover agents."

This made Jia Hui stunned.

Then he realized it!

That's right!

I'm afraid that from the beginning, the one targeting the Rong and Ning mansions, or to be precise, the entire founding generation, was the Emperor himself!

As his own brother,

Prince Zhongshun was just helping.

The information might have been collected by him for the Emperor.

Or it might have been informed to him by the Emperor's three major institutions.

Therefore, dealing with this Prince Zhongshun

would be more troublesome than dealing with Wang Ziteng and the others!

"However, so what if he is the Emperor's own brother? I'm not even afraid of the Emperor himself; I can take his place!"

【399】 Shaoshang exposes Yuanyi, mother and daughter identities reversed; Mao Jie returns, Great Dry Daily daily sales exceed fifty thousand.

However, despite this,

Jia Hui still didn't panic.

In the original work, Prince Zhongshun took many years to bring down the Jia family.

But Jia Hui's imperial favor was flourishing, and his power was only high, not low.

Even if he had a close relationship with the Emperor,

it wasn't something he could do just because he wanted to.

The Emperor himself wouldn't allow it first.

Furthermore, Jia Hui wasn't a soft persimmon.

"For now, try hard to collect information on Prince Zhongshun, find his weaknesses or even leverage, and then strike him down in one blow."

"If that doesn't work, then frame him!"

And Cheng Shaoshang and Xiao Yuanyi,

seeing Jia Hui, who was calm in the face of danger and unperturbed,

they were both extremely impressed!

If it were them, they would have been panicked to death.

After all, this was a Prince, and he was the current Emperor's own brother!

Yet he could still be so calm!

This kind of charm made their legs weak.

"Since you know, Marquis, then we don't need to worry."

"We should go back too."

Xiao Yuanyi smiled.

Jia Hui nodded: "Hmm, I will send a team of troops to escort you back!"

Xiao Yuanyi and Cheng Shaoshang then both apologized and left.

Only when they left,

both women were supported by two people as they left the room and went to get into a carriage.

Cheng Shaoshang was because she was still ill.

And what about Xiao Yuanyi?

Jia Hui was starving, so he didn't care about the two women.

He went to the restaurant to eat.

The women heard the news and stopped playing, coming to the restaurant to eat with him.
