39. Chapter 39
Jiao Wanwan waited in horror for a long time, but she didn't hear Zhao Guangyi's next sentence fall, and then there was the sound of footsteps. But there was only one person, and after that, there was a low cry.
You don't need to look at it to know that this is Mrs. Hua Rui crying, Jiao Wanwan was a little speechless, don't you hurry back at this time, in case the official family suddenly wants to drink water in the middle of the night and thinks about the night or something, but finds that his favorite concubine is not there, do you have good fruit to eat when you turn around?
Even if you're a spy, please be dedicated. Being a spy and regretting it, both sides can't please each other, it's better to go all the way to the dark. Either go back to Zhao Kuangyin to confess, or follow Zhao Guangyi to the end, what kind of ability is it to cry secretly like this?
Mrs. Hua Rui probably didn't dare to delay outside for too long, and after crying for about a stick of incense, she quickly closed her voice and left. Jiao Wanwan waited for another stick of incense on the spot, and was sure that no one would come back, so she got up and crept back with someone.
When she went out, Zhao Defang slept well, and when she came back, she thought that Zhao Defang was still asleep, but as soon as she entered the tent, she found that someone was sitting at the table, and her face was a little unpleasant: "Why did you go out for so long?" โ
Jiao Wanwan was a little surprised: "Aren't you asleep?" โ
didn't sleep well, Zhao Defang's voice was a little astringent, and his expression was a little unpleasant: "I'm not dead, and the few people around me can't find out?" โ
"I slept too much in the afternoon, and some of them couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk." Jiao Wanwan hurriedly said, leaning into Zhao Defang's ear and lowering her voice: "I encountered a big event, didn't I take someone out just now?" I thought about walking nearby, and then I suddenly saw Mrs. Hua Rui next to my father, alone, not even a palace maid, you know, I don't like to deal with these concubines and other characters the most, so I hid my figure for the time being, and wanted to wait for her to pass, but I didn't expect that Mrs. Hua Rui actually made an appointment with someone. โ
Zhao Defang was taken aback at first, and then her face turned stinky: "She actually had a tryst with someone behind her father's back?" Such a disobedience to women......"
Jiao Wanwan waved her hand: "It's not a matter of not abiding by women's morals, this is not a big deal, and the bigger thing is behind." โ
Zhao Defang looked at Jiao Wanwan with blazing eyes, and Jiao Wanwan hurriedly said what happened to Zhao Guangyi later: "I don't know what the Jinkui Covenant is about, but obviously, what the second uncle means is to usurp the throne, right?" โ
Zhao Defang frowned, and said after a while: "The second uncle has never been reckless, not only has a personal relationship with Mrs. Hua Rui, but he should not be in danger, he came out alone to meet with Mrs. Hua Rui, and there are many guards in this paddock, in case someone finds out, a crime of โกโก harem will not be able to escape, no matter whether he succeeds in usurping the throne in the future, this matter is a stain that cannot be washed away." โ
looked at Jiao Wanwan again: "Besides, the second uncle's martial arts are not weak, you and Jin Mei and a few weak women, the breathing sound must be different from those who practice martial arts, since you can hear them talking, the distance must not be too far, the second uncle didn't find out?" โ
Jiao Wanwan opened her mouth and stammered, she was only excited just now, but she didn't take these problems into account. Moreover, Zhao Guangyi is not a reckless person, otherwise, he would not have won all battles, and he was relied on by Zhao Kuangyin, he had an appointment with Mrs. Hua Rui, didn't he think of clearing the surrounding obstacles in advance?
The chance of being bumped into by someone is a little too small. It's Jiao Wanwan herself, who wants to say a few private words, but she still remembers lowering her voice and leaning into her ears, are Zhao Guangyi and Mrs. Hua Rui the brainless people?
But this matter, it can't be said that Jiao Wanwan was calculated, what good is it to calculate her?
"What the hell is going on?" Jiao Wanwan was a little dumbfounded, feeling that she just watched a performance with ulterior motives? But who is behind the manipulation? Who is this scene for? What is the purpose?
Or, did Jiao Wanwan happen to steal the tickets of other audiences? Standing in the way of the real audience?
"Do you really see the appearance of the second uncle clearly?" Zhao Defang asked again, Jiao Wanwan frowned, thought hard in her head, shook her head, she only heard the voice, because she was very concerned about Zhao Guangyi on weekdays, for fear that he would kill Zhao Kuangyin without knowing when, so this voice is also very familiar, and she can hear it as soon as she hears it.
"There are also people who are very good at ventriloquism......" Zhao Defang said vaguely, Jiao Wanwan thought for a while, and shook her head: "Impossible, Mrs. Hua Rui can't be fake, this kind of thing is making trouble, the second uncle is the younger brother of the official family, so he won't have any big crimes, but Mrs. Hua Rui is a harem woman, and she has only one way to die if this matter goes out, so she will definitely not admit the wrong person." โ
"We don't have any evidence, just based on what a few of you overheard, even myself, I don't believe it......" Seeing Jiao Wanwan glaring at him, he hurriedly said: "It's not that I don't believe you, but I feel that this tryst was probably planned by someone with a heart, not a real one." Therefore, even if you tell your father, your father probably won't believe it. โ
Even if Zhao Defang is his own son, Zhao Kuangyin is not a pure father, he must first be an emperor, and then he can be a father.
There is no evidence, and everything is in vain.
"Don't make a noise about this matter for now, you just don't hear it, I'll ask someone to investigate another day to see if I can collect any evidence." Zhao Defang hurriedly said, seeing that Jiao Wanwan was still a little entangled, and said: "Maybe, you are really lucky, the second uncle was so negligent, and really let you meet it?" Or, just came to the paddock, and the second uncle was a little negligent, so he was careless? If that's true, you've done a great job. โ
Jiao Wanwan muttered: "It must be true, this thing can't be played for me, first of all, the idea of me going out for a walk was sudden, until the moment I went out, no one knew, even Jin Mei only thought I was going to the thatched house." That direction was also chosen by me at random. The first time I saw the second uncle earlier, I felt that he probably looked down on you and the second brother of the crown prince. โ
After a pause, he said: "It's not that I look down on you, how to say it, it's just that I don't have a good impression of the two of you, and I'm not very close to you." โ
Zhao Defang smiled: "Probably to avoid suspicion?" "Although the official family has already set the crown prince, after all, the throne has not yet been handed down, and the prince will be able to be pulled off the horse one day, and Zhao Guangyi holds the military power again, if he is too close to any prince, it is not good.
Jiao Wanwan shook her head: "It's not for this reason, if it's to avoid suspicion, when he enters Beijing, he should hand over the military power." โ
The housekeeper released the military power with a glass of wine in the early years, and basically the old ministers who followed him handed over the military power, Zhao Guangyi is his own brother, wouldn't he know Zhao Kuangyin's taboo against the person in charge of the army?
Knowing the taboo, but not returning it, can it be said that there is no selfishness?
Zhao Defang was choked, stretched out his hand and pulled Jiao Wanwan, and held the person in his arms: "Okay, okay, what you said makes sense, the second uncle probably really has bad intentions, but the premise is that there is evidence, if there is no evidence, even if my father believes us, we can't do anything to the second uncle." โ
Jiao Wanwan understands the truth, she is just a little anxious. I'm afraid that I don't know one day, Zhao Kuangyin will have inexplicable braids, and then it will be Zhao Defang's turn. So after grabbing Zhao Guangyi's little tail, she couldn't wait, and she couldn't wait for Zhao Defang to go to Zhao Kuangyin immediately, not to mention that Zhao Guangyi could be disposed of immediately, at least, confiscated the military power first, and then put people under surveillance.
But what Zhao Defang said also makes sense, there is no evidence, and everything is in vain.
Jiao Wanwan was a little frustrated, Zhao Kuangyin hadn't discovered Zhao Guangyi's wolf ambition for so many years, which fully proves how cautious Zhao Guangyi is, is the evidence easy to find? Don't find the last bit of evidence, and it startled the snake, but it hastened Zhao Kuangyin's own death.
"It's not too early, Ming'er still has to follow his father to hunt, what about this, don't make a noise for now, I'll discuss it with the second brother of the prince when I go back." Zhao Defang was busy and comforted Jiao Wanwan: "There is also my mother, let my mother start the investigation from Mrs. Hua Rui, and she should be able to find out some evidence." โ
Jiao Wanwan has a little spirit at this time, the harem is the world of the queen and the crown princess, even if Mrs. Hua Rui is favored, she probably can't escape the inquiry of the lord of the harem. As long as you pull out the radishes, you can bring out the mud, even if there is no real evidence at that time, it is good to make Zhao Guangyi unable to speak.
"Okay, then when you go back, you can quickly talk to your mother about it." Jiao Wanwan hurriedly explained, seeing that Zhao Defang nodded in response, she was satisfied.
"Ming'er still has to get up early, you also have to go hunting, settled earlier?" Zhao Defang asked again, and without waiting for Jiao Wanwan to answer, she walked to the bedside after picking up someone, personally waited for her to take off her clothes, and closed her eyes when she hugged someone.
Jiao Wanwan thought that she would not be able to sleep, after all, when she was worried, she suddenly became bright, grabbed Zhao Guangyi's pigtail, and was very excited, but as a result, when she lay on the bed for less than a stick of incense, her head began to be groggy, and she didn't know when she fell asleep, anyway, she slept very well this night, and she didn't even have a dream.
"Where's Lang Jun?" Yawning and sitting up, Jiao Wanwan asked while opening her arms for Jin Mei to wait for her to get dressed. Jin Mei's expression was a little stern: "The prince went to the official's house early in the morning, Niangniang, is it last night......
Before she finished speaking, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly waved her hand, stared at her eyes and said: "Jin Mei, you remember, nothing happened last night, we just went to the clean room, and when we came back, we went to sleep, and we didn't go anywhere else, not only you, Lamei is also like this, we are not a mile away from this tent at all, understand?" Brother Hu Yong, the prince must have made it clear. โ
Jin Mei's face turned pale, and she nodded quickly: "The maid understands, the maid didn't go anywhere last night, and only followed the princess to the clean room." โ
