Chapter 131: Identity Exposed?
After the Cheng family and the gang handed over the bamboo pole and the fat man to the government, the wanted warrant of the eldest lady behind the scenes was also hung all over the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, of course, the Cheng family did not have so much energy, but it would be different if there was the prince of the dynasty behind the scenes.
This matter came to an end, and the Cheng family also ushered in a truly peaceful period.
Three months have passed, and the inside story of the Cheng family's malicious arson has also been known by someone with a heart.
"Sister, do you know about someone sneaking into Cheng's house to set fire some time ago?" Su Jinhua, who likes to be lively the most, was eating melon seeds while asking his sister Su Jinrong.
When Su Jinrong heard this, his disdain overflowed, "Of course I know, I also know that the two thieves who wanted to set fire were instructed by the eldest lady of the Cheng family to set the fire." ”
"Yes, yes, I heard that those two stupid thieves were caught by our brother-in-law." Su Jinhua raised his little face, as if he was honored. Although these two young ladies and Su Jinxiu do not deal with each other, they are still childlike, and when they heard that their brother-in-law is so powerful, they are also happy in their hearts.
But the eldest lady is different, the young master of the Cheng family admired him before, and he also had a slight impression of him. But after Su Jinxiu got married, Cheng Ying no longer admired herself before, just like a child who was robbed of his beloved toy by someone else in play, although he didn't really like Cheng Ying, but Su Jinxiu didn't deal with herself, and she was pressed by her in this matter, which was really not a taste in her heart.
At this time, hearing his sister mention him again, Su Jinrong felt awkward, "Hmph, all you hear are rumors in the market, thieves are vicious, how can it be that the powerless young master of the Cheng family can deal with it." I heard that it was the Cheng family's family who caught the thief. ”
"Those two thieves are too stupid, they can't even deal with their families, and they dare to go to Cheng's house to ask for their own hardships?" The second lady thought of the family members who were beaten and scolded in her own family, and couldn't help but mock aloud.
There is a saying that "the speaker has no intention of listening, and the listener has a heart", the eldest lady didn't think much about it, but after listening to her sister's words, she suddenly thought that what her sister said made sense, if those two thieves couldn't even clean up the house, would it be worth the eldest lady to hire with twenty big yellow croaker? In this way, there must be something hidden in this matter. Thinking of this, the eldest lady called the maid and asked her to inquire about the inside story.
After a while, the maid came back to report, but what she said was nothing new, and what she said over and over again was what the eldest lady already knew, and the eldest lady became more and more irritable when she heard it, so she simply sent someone to Cheng's house to inquire about the news.
Sure enough, under Su Jinrong's money offensive, he soon got different news from his family.
"It's really the thief Cheng Ying caught?" The eldest lady couldn't believe it, but soon her heart moved, Cheng Ying has such ability, why do you usually pretend to be a weak scholar? The more the eldest lady thought about it, the more excited she became, and there was a lot of room for maneuver in this matter. However, with her deduction, she couldn't guess anything anymore, so she simply quietly released the news, and first tested the reaction of the Cheng family.
Soon, the gossip about "the son of the Cheng family is strong in martial arts, and he captured the two thieves with his bare hands" is known to passers-by, and there is a way that "deliberately planting flowers and flowers does not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows into the shade" Su Jinrong's hand was naturally wrong, but he hit it crookedly, focusing everyone's attention on Cheng Ying, Cheng Ying's identity was already invisible, which was directly to the point.
"Who got this out?" Su Jinxiu suppressed her anger and reprimanded the maids in front of her.
Cheng Ying didn't care, "Okay, okay, there are many people in the house, maybe someone sees it, and besides, the matter has already come out, and it's useless to blame them." As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the maids were like being amnestied, but they were still afraid of Su Jinxiu's identity as the owner, so they did not leave.
Su Jinxiu waved her hand irritably, "Let's all go out." The maids slipped out of the room, and did not forget to close the door gently.
Young Master Cheng comforted her, "It's not a big deal, anyway, my identity will recover sooner or later, and it won't be too soon." ”
But Su Jinxiu thought more, "Sooner or later, sooner or later, just at this time, the prince's side is not ready, Fu Yi's momentum has begun, but unfortunately it has not yet achieved results." If your identity is now revealed, I'm afraid you're in trouble. ”
After taking a sip of warm tea, she continued, "And I now suspect that the Empress already knows about our discussion with the Prince."
Cheng Ying was not surprised, "I also thought of this, we just made a plan with the crown prince, and someone will make a fuss about my identity so soon, maybe it is really the queen's handiwork." ”
This really can't blame Cheng Ying and the others for being suspicious, mainly because first, the timing of this incident was too ingenious, not long after the prince and them made their plans, and secondly, because Su Jinrong had long been left behind by the two, and the eldest lady was too busy to take care of herself, so the only one who had a reason to deal with Cheng Ying was the queen.
The two discussed for a long time, and finally came up with a plan: no matter whether the queen has determined Cheng Ying's true identity or is a little tempted, the two of them must not mess with themselves, and at this time they will first explain the prince's people, anyway, the queen knows that the two of them have treated the prince, and it is not impossible to leave the guards to take care of them secretly. As for the identity issue, it should be kept secret first, and when the rumors pass a little, discuss the matter with the prince Fu Yi and the others.
The two of them made up their minds, and they took action. Su Jinxiu first went to the old lady to talk to him, and explained what she had done for the prince's treatment last time, but as for the things that she had concealed from everyone before, she pushed it to the prince.
When the old lady first heard about this, she couldn't help but marvel again and again, and praised Jinxiu for being smart and clever, and she was the lucky star of the Cheng family. As for concealing everyone, the old lady expressed full understanding, "The old man knows that the royal family must have a deep meaning in doing things, and it is too shocking for the prince to send someone to protect you, so it doesn't hurt." So what does the prince mean now? ”
"It's okay to tell the truth about things, now it's rumored that your grandson is infinitely powerful and strong in martial arts, this rumor is getting more and more unreasonable, let's tell the truth, and everyone in the province has no reason to guess about me." You don't have to worry, the prince knows about it, and we don't dare to make our own decisions without his permission. ”
The old lady nodded again and again, "Okay, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has orders, the old man will immediately send someone to do it." ”
After the news of the Cheng family was released, the nearby families, large and small, were impressed by the Cheng family, but they didn't expect that the Cheng family still had a capable person who could enter the eyes of the prince. Immediately afterward, those rumors disappeared into the corners of the streets, as if they had never appeared.
