As soon as Zhou Huan said these words, not to mention the corners of Chen Zhuoxin's lips twitching in disdain, the noble ladies from the surrounding families all found it very unbelievable and even very ridiculous, including Ji Jun.
Ji Jun felt very confused by Zhou Huan's move. As a meticulous person like Zhou Huan, how could he make such a low-level mistake?
Although Ji Jun had never met Chen Jia, she had heard people say that Chen Jia was tall, handsome, well-mannered, and good at both civil and military affairs.
And judging from the height of Chen Zhuoxin and the figure of Chen Yi and Chen Bing, Chen A should not be less than seven feet, and maybe eight feet is also possible.
Because Chen Jia is the eldest son of Chen Guogong, Chen Guogong is a military commander, needless to say he is physically strong. Even if he has enjoyed wealth for a long time and has become lazy, the airs are there and the genes are there, as long as he is not acting recklessly. If the earth is "worked", even if the body and bones are different, it won't be any worse.
It is rumored that old Chen Guogong did not have any particularly bad habits. Although he had some alcoholism, sex, and wealth, he did not have promiscuous sex or love affairs, so it was not outrageous.
Mrs. Yi is still alive and well, which shows that her health is also very good.
As the eldest son and the heir apparent, Chen Jia would definitely take good care of him!
So regardless of whether he is handsome or not, based on his body and height, he is definitely not like this. It is estimated that Chen Jia should be relatively tall and powerful, like "he is so powerful that he can lift mountains and the world is overwhelming".
Or like Li Mi, who "takes off his clothes to look fat, but wears clothes to look slimmer"! Ahem, why did you think of going there?
Ji Jun glanced at Li Mi, who happened to be looking at her with concern, and Ji Jun's face suddenly turned red.
Among the noble ladies around, there were also people who were closely involved in Chen Guogong's mansion. Whatever Ji Jun could think of, they would also think of it.
If Chen Jia were shorter, fatter, or described as vulgar, he would definitely become a talking point among the elite circles in Beijing.
Just like in previous lives, many people have this mentality. For a person who is outstanding or has a high position, people will always try their best to find some of his faults or shortcomings to balance themselves while being envious, jealous and hateful. That sad state of mind.
For example, many people envy celebrities, envy the good fortune of those handsome men and beautiful women, envy their appearance, envy their figure, envy their scenery and wealth.
But everyone is always more willing to gossip about some of their misfortunes, their scandals, and the bad people and bad things they encountered.
For example, some celebrities grew up in single-parent families, or their parents were at odds with each other, resulting in domestic violence, depression, alcoholism, gambling, etc.
There are also people who have been "cheated" by their lovers or husbands/wives, and have been betrayed.
Or some people were defrauded of money or sex, or some people went to invest or do business and lost everything in the end, etc., etc.
Yin Hong stepped forward and saluted Zhou Huanshen and said,
"Your Majesty, please be careful what you say!"
Zhou Huan glanced at Yin Hong lightly, then looked at Chen Zhuoxin, his expression serious and firm, without a hint of joking.
"My lord, if it is true or not, we will know after checking it."
Chen Guogong, Chen Zhuoxin, looked at Zhou Huan. After a moment, the corner of his lips curled up with a trace of ridicule, and his tone was cold and authentic,
"What if I don't let Prince Huan examine it? Is it possible that Prince Huan still wants to punish me?"
After saying this, a stream of breath came out of his nose, meaning:
You want to punish me? Are you worthy?
Zhou Huan was as calm as water, without wind or waves. However, his whole body was filled with ice cold, and his aura was not inferior to that of Chen Zhuoxin.
Zhou Huan spoke slowly,
"My lord, I am not saying that I must interfere in your family affairs. In fact, I am entrusted by the old lady and must do my best."
Chen Zhuoxin looked at Zhou Huan as if he were watching a big show.
"Huan Shizi, could it be that you came to my Duke Chen's residence before you woke up today? Do you mean that my mother asked you to investigate this matter? What a joke! It has only been an hour since I knew about this matter, and I have given orders not to disturb me. Prince Huan, I’m really curious, how did the old lady know?”
Zhou Huan smiled slightly,
"How does the old lady know? Just ask the old lady! But please take a look, Mr. Guo. There are the old woman's fingerprints on this paper, and there is also the old woman's jade bracelet. You should know that this bracelet is When the late emperor celebrated the wedding of Mr. Chen Guogong and his wife, the Queen Mother gave it to the old lady. The old lady said that it would be passed on to the successor Mrs. Chen Guogong after a hundred years, so to this day, this bracelet is still there. You don’t recognize the bracelet on the old lady’s hand, do you?”
Ji Jun and Ji Min were more than one meter away from Zhou Huan and Chen Guogong, but they could see that the jade bracelet Zhou Huan held up was crystal clear, smooth and smooth, and it was definitely worth a lot of money. It was not a common thing at first glance.
Sure enough, Chen Zhuoxin's expression changed when he saw the jade bracelet.
Although he couldn't believe it, he couldn't admit it.
So Chen Zhuoxin was a little tough on Zhou Huan,
"Huan Shizi, did you come to my Duke Chen's house to show off and deceive? I don't care what method you used to defraud your mother's jade bracelet and create such a false piece of paper, but I will tell you today that you want to I am causing trouble in Chen Guogong's mansion, you have chosen the wrong place! How about we go to the Holy Lord to argue!"
Zhou Huan was neither annoyed nor anxious, he smiled and said,
"Does the Duke really want to bring this matter to His Majesty? If it comes to His Majesty, then go ahead and I will accompany you! In short, sooner or later, this matter will be reported to His Majesty and asked for His Majesty's decision. I -"
Before Zhou Huan finished speaking, a woman stumbled over from outside the crowd. This woman had a beautiful face, probably because of the hot weather and the fact that she was running in a hurry. She was panting for a while, and there were some tiny beads of sweat on her forehead. She was delicate and delicate. There were a few shallow marks on the makeup, which showed that the makeup was somewhat damaged.
Moreover, two strands of hair blew to her forehead, but the woman's body was light and her movements were smooth, so she did not look embarrassed. On the contrary, she was a bit cute.
The woman ran up to Chen Guogong and said breathlessly,
"My lord, the old lady fainted! Just now, the old lady fainted!"
Chen Guogong saw that this woman was Aunt Cheng in his back house. Aunt Cheng was a favored aunt. She was smart and good at observing words and emotions. She would definitely not deceive Chen Zhuoxin at this moment.
Chen Zhuoxin frowned slightly.
"what happened?"
Aunt Cheng looked a little panicked and said,
"Just now, the old lady was joking with several wives of the princes and the female relatives of ministers in the back hall, but suddenly a masked man came in. This man thrust a piece of paper into the old lady. The old lady read this After reading the paper, I didn’t know whether he was angry or frightened. Suddenly his mouth was twisted and his eyes were twisted, and he was speechless! At this time, Prince Huan, Prince Guangning and Prince Li came to congratulate the old lady, and the old lady said The paper and bracelet were given to Prince Huan, and then the old lady fainted!"
Ji Jun and Ji Min looked at each other, what a coincidence?
The more Chen Zhuoxin listened, the harder it became to suppress the anger in his chest. What a mess!
He looked at Yin Hong, who was obviously clueless!
Zhou Huan continued,
"My lord, do you believe me now? Oh, by the way, I have sent people to escort that masked man to Dali Temple. According to him, you had plotted to kill the eldest son Chen Jia in order to get the master of Qiqing County. However, he also said that the crown prince Chen Jia might have been killed by you in the recent past. He had been greatly favored by Chen Jia, so he endured the humiliation and heavy burden over the years and must avenge the crown prince."
Chen Zhuoxin's eyes flashed fiercely, and his heart was filled with thunder and lightning. It was difficult for him to figure out the ins and outs of each incident. He only felt that there were endless threats all around, approaching him little by little, and these threats , before, there was no sign at all!
After a moment, Chen Zhuoxin squeezed out a sentence from his lips,
"That's nonsense!"
Yangxu County Lord also recovered a little at this moment, walked quickly to Zhou Huan and said,
"Huan Shizi, you can't talk nonsense!"
It was a matter of honor for his sister, and the head of Yangxu County was a little dissatisfied.
"Yes! Prince Huan, this man is my cousin, how could he be the previous son?"
Guan Jingqiu also regained her clarity at this moment, and she didn't know whether she was right or wrong in insisting that this person was her cousin.
However, her intuition was that if she identified this person as her "cousin", she might do Chen Zhuoxin a favor.
Chen Zhuoxin may be grateful for her help. After all, Chen A is "dead" and she does not recognize this person as his "cousin". Even if Chen A comes back to life, he will not be grateful to her.
"Eh? Why is Bi Si'er here?" Aunt Cheng glanced at the body lying on the ground and exclaimed softly!
"Bi Si'er?" Yin Hong frowned when he heard the name. He seemed to have heard of it, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
"Which Bi Si'er?" Chen Zhuoxin was also confused.
Aunt Cheng glanced at Chen Zhuoxin timidly, and saw that his face was like a dark cloud pressing down on his surroundings. She was timid in her heart, but she had to say it, so she had to mutter,
"I remember that Bi Si'er was Aunt Xiang's cousin. He used to work in the mansion. Later, he developed a lot of abscesses and was driven to the village by the steward. However, he always came to Aunt Xiang to ask for money to buy medicine. , once, once..."
Aunt Cheng's voice became lower and lower, lower and lower, almost inaudible.
"What happened one time?" Yangxu County Chief asked anxiously. She hates this kind of people the most. He talks half and half, and leaves the other half. He wants to say it but doesn't say it, and it seems like he can't do it even if he doesn't. It's really annoying!
Aunt Cheng looked at Chen Zhuoxin and did not stop her. Yin Hong seemed to really not know the truth. Anyway, the disgusting things were not done by his family members. They are what you want to know. You can't blame me. She said softly. ,
"Once he met the county lord, and he asked for money from the county lord. The county lord was kind and gave him some. He was very happy. From then on, after that, after that..."
"What's the matter?" County Master Yangxu was about to go berserk!
The Lord of Jili County interjected,
"Could it be that you have unwanted thoughts about Sister Qiqing?"
Ji Jun, "..."
This Qi Li has great potential in writing romance!
Ji Min, "..."
Lord Jili County, this is a lesson that will bring you wisdom!
Peony, "..."
The young lady always says that I speak freely. Doesn’t it count that the Lord of Qili County is like this?
Aunt Cheng took a deep breath and said,
"Bi Si'er carved a statue that looked like the Lord of Qiqing County. He knelt down and worshiped during the day, and at night..."
Ji Jun, "..."
There are thunders from the sky, there are melons here!
