After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone

Chapter 277: Like a backdrop that never hurts



  Chapter 277 is like a background board that never hurts

  Shen Mingjiao didn't have time to think about it for the time being, she asked the question that the few present were most concerned about: "Did King Yu send someone to kill the former prince and his wife?"

"yes."

  Hearing the other party's confession, Qin Yan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

  Cui Lingling reached out hesitatingly, and gently shook his veined wrist. Qin Yan paused, and after a long time, his tense body slowly relaxed.

  Cui Lingling bit her lip, leaned over and whispered: "Okay! Calm down, for the sake of your pity, I will forgive you in advance."

  Qin Yan looked down at her, because she was already in the late stage of pregnancy, which made her already fat face even more round. Thinking of what he did a few days ago, he couldn't help feeling ashamed. He barely pulled his lips at her.

  Shen Mingjiao asked all he could know, and Tie Zhu beside him was in charge of recording the statement.

  After all the questions that should be asked, Shen Mingjiao rubbed her dizzy forehead for a long time, Cui Lingling just thought that the man in black was too determined, and she was overdrawn. Poured her a cup of tea and said, "Go back and ask the imperial doctor to prescribe some medicine to replenish your vitality."

  Shen Mingjiao nodded without explaining much, but took the confession written by Tie Zhu. After reading the whole article, I can conclude: the man in the black robe is called prisoner, and he is a dark guard trained by King Yu early on. He has done many shameful things for King Yu.

  However, in the eyes of King Yu, such a person is not a confidant at all, at most he is a handy weapon, so what he can know is limited, only that King Yu has long been plotting a big event. He mentioned several officials and wealthy businessmen who had secretly connected with King Yu.

  As for the secret meeting places of King Yu, he only knows one: Fangfei Pavilion, Huaihua Lane, South Jingzhou Street.

  As soon as you hear the name, you can guess that it is probably a brothel and Chu Pavilion, but this is not surprising. Flower streets and willow lanes like this have always been mixed with fish and dragons, and they are most suitable for this kind of gathering point for secret contact.

  Although there is no real evidence, based on these, coupled with what Shen Mingjiao experienced in his previous life, it is an indisputable fact that King Yu is planning to rebel.

   Cui Lingling pointed at the prisoner who had fainted, and said: "Now that the testimony is obtained, just hand it over to His Majesty, and then His Majesty will send someone to Jingzhou to arrest King Yu, then everything will be known."

Shen Mingjiao shook her head: "The person must be handed over to His Majesty, but this matter is not so simple. This is not an ordinary criminal. He can be brought to justice only by witnesses. The other party is a prince who intends to rebel. And no one knows how many soldiers and horses he has in his hands?"

  In case the news leaks out, the other party will not stop doing nothing, and directly raise the flag to rebel. No matter whether it succeeds or not, it will only hurt innocent people.

  So the best solution to this matter at the moment is to send people to Jingzhou quietly to find the stronghold of King Yu's troops and minimize the impact of the matter.

  The last few people unanimously decided that Feng Shuo would hand over the person to Jing and Di.

  However, Shen Mingjiao feels that Jing and Di should be aware of and tacitly approve of what Feng Shuo and the others did.

   As the group left, Feng Shuo quietly stared at the prisoner dragged away by the iron pillar, his pair of phoenix eyes flickering.

  Shen Mingjiao silently returned to the wing room that had been packed in advance, leaning on the chaise longue, Haitang rubbed her forehead.

   Seeing her girl frowning all the time, Haitang asked hesitantly, "Is there something on your mind?"

  Although she is sometimes silly, no one can compare to her in terms of understanding Shen Mingjiao's mood.

  Shen Mingjiao didn't speak, but asked Haitang to fetch a pen and paper. After a quarter of an hour, the door was opened, and she asked Tie Zhu to be called:

   "Send this letter to His Highness, and let Lightning deliver it."

   Tie Zhu looked serious, and took the letter solemnly.

  Lightning is a goshawk domesticated by King Su's mansion. It is never used for non-urgent and important letters.

  …

  Shen Mingjiao rested for a while, then stood up, and together with Cui Lingling, went to Zhuangzi next door.

  When the two arrived, they heard a female voice chirping from a distance. Cui Lingling was surprised,

   "It sounds very lively inside, it seems that Danxue's mood is recovering well!"

  Shen Mingjiao didn't speak, the two pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.

  In the courtyard, Gu Erye's daughter, Gu Yun, was pestering Ning Yuan and Gu Zhao, asking questions, like a butterfly scurrying around. On the contrary, it was Gu Danxue, her own daughter, sitting with her head down like a shadow.

   "It's very cold this year. Uncle must have worked very hard at the border. Ayun has nothing to do, so I made a pair of knee pads for uncle. I will let the maid send them over later. Don't be disgusted with uncle!"

  The little girl's tone was delicate and lively, her eyebrows and eyes were flying. Gu Zhao felt that this is what a girl's family should be like, and she was also a kind-hearted niece. Immediately smiled and waved:

   "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, it's good if you have this kind of heart."

  Gu Yun glanced at the silent Gu Danxue, sighed deliberately:

   "However, compared to sewing, I am not as hardworking as Dan Xue. I often see her lighting up a lamp to do sewing. I think the clothes and knee pads she made for uncle must be much better than mine!"

  Gu Zhao is a big old man, so he can't hear the twists and turns between women. He lowered his head and sipped his tea, and said casually:

   "What nonsense, how can he compare with you?"

  Gu Yun curled her lips proudly.

  Gu Danxue, who was sitting on the side like a shadow, clenched her fists.

  She still remembers that when she was eight years old, the girl in the mansion began to learn needlework. Like her figure, she was naturally clumsy in embroidery needlework, and everyone in the mansion laughed at her.

  She was not as cowardly as she is now. She held her breath and planned to make a knee pad for her father before he came back during the Chinese New Year.

  So she practiced needlework day and night, poked countless blood bubbles with her fingers, and finally waited until the Chinese New Year to make a barely wearable knee pad. She gave it to her father with anxiety and anticipation.

  Father always had a solemn face, raised his hand and gently stroked her head, and gave her a set of throwing pot stands.

  She was secretly happy all night, thinking that her father still liked her. During that time, the border was unstable, and the father left in a hurry after staying for less than three days. The father and daughter did not say a few words in total.

  She was full of reluctance, so she quietly went to her father's yard, only to see that the knee pads she had worked so hard for several months were disposed of as useless garbage.

  She just felt a chill in her heart, and never did anything for her father again.

  It turned out that my father really thought she was too stupid!

   Gu Yun still wants to say that it has been like this since she was a child, as long as she uses this trick. The uncle will be even more displeased with the cheap girl.

  My mother has been nagging since she was a child that their family can live in such a big house because of Gu Danxue's favor, so she is jealous from the bottom of her heart, why isn't she the uncle's daughter?

  Shen Mingjiao interrupted her coldly: "Hey, it's not spring yet? Where are the flowers and butterflies coming from!"

  Gu Yun's face froze, and she lowered her head in aggrieved expression.

  Even if Gu Zhao didn't hear the meaning of Princess Su's words, he could tell that she was targeting Gu Yun.

  He stood up and clasped his fists to salute. Shen Mingjiao didn't look at him, but continued to stare at Gu Yun:

   "Everyone in the circle of ladies in the capital knows that Danxue is not good at needlework, if I remember correctly. This is what your mother, Mrs. Gu Er, said in front of everyone."

   After finishing speaking, she stared at Gu Yun coldly: "Then, what does Miss Gu mean by what she said just now?

  Your mother spreads Danxue's needlework outside, and you, a daughter, praise Danxue's needlework in front of Gu Houye, your family is really interesting! "

  Gu Yun's face turned pale, and she looked at Gu Zhao in a panic: "Uncle, I didn't..."

  As Jing and Di's loyal loyalists, Gu Zhao naturally respects Jing and Di's trusted Su Wang couple. Subconsciously, he feels that what Shen Mingjiao said is all right, and the other party has no reason to lie to her.

   Looking at Gu Yun, he couldn't help but think deeply: "Why do younger brothers and sisters say such things?"

  Gu Yun hurriedly shook her head: "No, how could mother..."

  Shen Mingjiao interrupted her impatiently: "Okay, Miss Gu, please go back if you have nothing to do! Blind people can see what you're up to!"

  Gu Yun didn't want to leave, but Bei Shenming glanced indifferently, remembering the usual vicious name, so she could only bite her lip and leave in a hurry with grievance on her face.

  Seeing that the person left, Gu Zhao unexpectedly asked in confusion: "Princess, please tell me clearly, what is A Yun's idea?"

  Shen Mingjiao: "..." At this moment, she was really curious, how did such a person become a general! Is there such a big difference in thinking between men and women?

  She was too lazy to answer, but asked, "What are you doing here, Lord Hou?"

  Gu Zhao: "I heard what happened to Mei Lin just now, so let me come and see Dan Xue."

  Shen Mingjiao said "Oh", "Have you ever talked to Danxue, Lord Hou?"

  Gu Yun lost her voice: "... I came here, and Ayun happened to come to see Danxue. She has a lively personality and keeps talking to me. As an elder, I can't ignore her."

   Having said that, he subconsciously looked at his daughter. But Gu Danxue was still sitting with her head down, like a background board that would never hurt.

  I don't know why, before seeing his daughter like this, he just felt displeased, but now he feels inexplicably unhappy.

  Shen Mingjiao shook her head with some disappointment, and directly opened her mouth to chase people away: "Dan Xue and I have some private things to say, Master Hou should go get busy first!"

  Gu Zhao didn't say anything, just stood up silently and left.

  From beginning to end. Gu Danxue didn't even look up.

  Cui Lingling stepped forward to hug her, and whispered in her ear: "Okay, everything is over."

  Gu Danxue's sluggish eyes became more focused, and she shed tears involuntarily.

  The atmosphere was really depressing, Shen Mingjiao suggested: "It's so cold, why don't we go out for a drink!"

  Cui Lingling was the first to raise her hand in response: "That's a good suggestion. It just so happens that my mother-in-law brewed a few jars of Pear Blossom White. I'll send someone back to pick it up."

  Shen Ming gave her a tender look: "What's the matter with you, you still want to drink while you're pregnant?"

  Perhaps it was because she thought of drinking to drown her sorrows, but Gu Danxue seldom took the initiative, so she cheered up: "Princess Wangfei has a good idea."

  She turned to look at Cui Lingling again, "There happens to be a cook in the mansion who can make wine-flavored juice."

  Cui Lingling immediately regained her spirits when she heard this.

  In order to reflect the scenery, the three chose a large stone wall that was just leeward of the wind. Shen Mingjiao also asked the servant girl to prepare a lot of snacks, the three of them poured a small cup each, and Shen Mingjiao proposed:

   "Just drinking is not fun. Let's learn from the ancients and tell each other the most unhappy things in the past. After today, how about canceling everything?"

   After speaking, she looked at Gu Danxue, she felt that the girl had too many things in her heart, and it might make her feel better if she said it.

  In order to enliven the atmosphere, Cui Lingling was the first to respond and poured himself a large glass of juice: "I'll come first! If you want to talk about unhappy things, it's too much..."

   There was a sudden pain in the left temple, and when I calmed down, my mind was buzzing. Obviously the plot of the story is in the mind, but it is really powerless.
