In Chen Guogong's Mansion, Chen Zhuoxin smashed a tea cup in a rare act!
Yin Hong hurriedly stepped forward to comfort Chen Zhuoxin and said,
"My lord, please calm down. Why are you so angry over a few rumors? It's not worth it!"
Chen Guogong felt very angry and helpless.
When will the prince of our country need the support of those southern ministers?
Are there any such people? What does it have to do with the princes of my own country or the superior princes of the country?
Just now, news came out from the palace that Concubine Jiao Xian used the excuse to find trouble and slapped two young eunuchs in Zhao Jieyu's palace for making mistakes.
Then, Zhao Jieyu was punished to copy scriptures.
These are nothing.
The most serious thing is that at night, there was an inexplicable fire in Zhao Jieyu's palace!
Fortunately, it rained quickly that night, so the fire was not big and was quickly extinguished.
However, this fire was very strange. Several corners of the palace caught fire at the same time. It was burned to pieces. The property damage was not serious, but everyone from the master to the slaves suffered losses. Such a "stable" fire cannot be set by anyone. Fire, no one really believes it.
However, no one would believe it if someone set the fire.
Fortunately, no one was injured, but Zhao Jieyu was frightened. The palace was damaged, but not seriously. She could not replace the palace and could only wait for someone to repair it.
The palace is under maintenance, so the emperor will naturally not set foot there.
In other words, as long as the palace is repaired, Zhao Jieyu will fall out of favor.
Zhao Jieyu was presented to the emperor by Chen Guogong, so she was naturally a member of Chen Guogong's faction.
Previously, for the common goal, Concubine Jiao Xian gave Zhao Jieyu enough dignity on the surface. Many times, for the sake of acting, it was even necessary to appear that Concubine Jiao Xian was cautious in front of Zhao Jieyu.
For example, acting in front of the Wang family is a tacit cooperation between Zhao Jieyu and Concubine Jiao Xian.
Although Zhao Jieyu's punishment this time was not particularly severe, it was enough to slap her in the face.
In addition, Concubine Jiao Xian told Chen Guogong that she was very dissatisfied by punishing Zhao Jieyu.
Chen Zhuoxin was no stranger to Concubine Jiao Xian's methods, but this time Chen Guogong was really a little angry and aggrieved!
Concubine Jiao Xian was obedient and acted without thinking. There were indeed some southern officials who recommended the article to Chen Zhuoxin. Of course, along with the article, there were a lot of banknotes.
Chen Zhuoxin looked at the banknote and commented a few words. Since he had received money from others, he couldn't say unpleasant words.
Your father Jiao Shilang did the same thing, why don't you go find trouble with him?
Also, those who spread rumors are just too smart, so why don’t we include the other Dukes of Qin, Duke Yi, and Duke Ning?
Everyone benefits from fishing in troubled waters, and Concubine Jiao Xian doesn't cause any trouble for herself. How good is that!
Now, Chen Zhuoxin cannot openly quarrel with Concubine Jiao Xian, and must give Concubine Jiao Xian an explanation. Concubine Jiao Xian is in the deep palace, emotionally unstable, and unable to protect herself. Suddenly she thinks of something, and she becomes angry and makes What an earth-shattering event, when the time comes, all his previous hard work will be in vain!
If not, Concubine Jiao Xian's attitude of "If I'm not good, no one can think about it" will definitely drag her into trouble!
However, if we investigate further, who will benefit?
Chen Zhuoxin feels aggrieved and has a headache!
Jiao Xianfei is a teammate!
It is really inappropriate to call her a pig. Concubine Jiao Xian is still very scheming. Otherwise, even if there is a pusher behind her, even if she gives birth to a prince, she will not be promoted to the position of the fourth concubine.
Isn’t Meiren Chen an example?
However, once you are carried away by something, you are really worse than a pig!
What worried Chen Zhuoxin the most was that the "what" that could dazzle Concubine Jiao Xian was so elusive that anything could happen!
Chen Zhuoxin can't catch it!
Yin Hong hurriedly poured another cup of tea for Chen Zhuoxin and said,
"It's hard for those traitors to meet the Duke of Guo. When did the Duke of Guo collude with them? I don't care. I'm just worried that this rumor will be detrimental to the Duke of Guo. This obviously makes you follow. The fifth prince is against you!"
Chen Zhuoxin sat down slowly, frowned and said,
"Someone must be chewing the beans in front of the fifth prince, and there are also people who are adding fuel to the flames. Concubine Jiao Xian still does this! Now that there is a gap between me and Concubine Jiao Xian, naturally someone will benefit. Now the fifth prince is against Chen Meiren I have always been brooding over his death, and coupled with the matter of his son’s death, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to resolve.”
Before Chen Meiren passed away "suddenly", one day someone suddenly sent him a letter, hoping that he could save their mother and son from leaving the palace!
Chen Zhuoxin was simply shocked! Scoff at this!
He first felt that someone was taking advantage of him, the newly minted "Prince of Chen Guogong", for fun!
If it was not a joke, but it was actually written by Meiren Chen, then Meiren Chen would be crazy!
Begging him to take their mother and son away?
Doesn't this mean asking him to die?
No matter which one, Chen Zhuoxin felt that there was no need to pay attention to it. He suppressed the matter and did not report it to Old Chen Guogong at that time.
In Chen Zhuoxin's opinion, such an ordinary little palace concubine dared to ask for help from him, and she really didn't know how high the sky was.
Later, after Chen Meiren died, Chen Zhuoxin felt a little awkward and felt that the letter was not a "joke."
But even if it wasn't a joke, what could he do? So I let the matter go with peace of mind.
But later, as the investigation into Chen Meiren's death was reopened, although it was conducted in secret, the involvement became wider and wider, and he couldn't help but start to feel uneasy.
The more uneasy I become, the more I feel as if I have become an "accomplice" in causing Meiren's death.
For several nights, Chen Zhuoxin was awakened by the shrill voice of a woman sobbing, but no one around him heard it!
Then, Chen Zhuoxin had another nightmare, about a beautiful woman with eyebrows and eyebrows that looked a bit like the fifth prince. Subconsciously, this was Beauty Chen.
Chen Meiren pointed at Chen Zhuoxin with a bloody finger, sneered, and shot at Chen Zhuoxin with her eyes like arrows.
"Chen Zhuoxin! You dare not save me! You will be punished!"
"Chen Zhuoxin! One day, I will eat your flesh! Drink your blood! Let you die without a burial place!"
"Chen Zhuoxin! Kill your brother, kill your nephew! You will cut off your descendants!"
I have had this kind of dream several times. In the dream, the outline of "Beauty Chen" becomes clearer and clearer, her face is pale, and every time her eyes are full of hatred!
Every time, Chen Zhuoxin would be frightened awake by Beauty Chen's hateful eyes!
After waking up, Chen Zhuoxin no longer thought that the letter was a prank, but firmly believed that it was Miss Chen who did it!
Chen Zhuoxin always wonders, why would a little beauty ask him for help?
Why did a little beauty dare to get involved with Mrs. Li Guogong before she died?
Is this really just a coincidence?
And just when he was suspicious, a letter appeared on the desk in his study! The letter was signed by the dead Miss Chen!
In the letter, "Chen Meiren" accused him of "not saving anyone", accused him of being "ungrateful", and cursed him to "not have a good death"!
At the end of the letter, he said to Chen Zhuoxin, everything you gain today will be like a mirror, and no matter how many calculations you make, you can't save it.
Your children will have nothing like you, and will be slaves and maids for the rest of their lives!
You, Chen Zhuoxin, will never be reincarnated!
Chen Zhuoxin was completely confused! Going a little crazy! Where is this going?
Although our last name is Chen, that doesn't mean I should help you!
What's more, even if you are a relative, why should you help?
I get you out of the palace and take a prince with you. Do you think I will live longer?
On the pretext of praying for the health of several old ladies in the mansion, Chen Zhuoxin invited Taoist monks to have a meal of chanting and rituals!
The entire mansion suddenly filled with smoke! All kinds of sounds come and go, it’s so lively!
One of the wandering Taoist priests looked around and said,
"There is a lot of resentment in the mansion! You need the benefactor to take the amulet that Pindao gave you and go to a secluded place in the mansion to recite the exorcism and stabilization spell one hundred and eight times. Remember, remember, you must go to the lowest place in the mansion to recite it! In this way, the curse is blessed by Only when the benefactor's soul energy rises from low to high can the aura of resentful spirits in the mansion be slowly dissipated!"
The lowest place in the house?
Chen Zhuoxin thought of the dry well, but it had collapsed! Although it was later cleaned up, craftsmen said that after the earthquake inside, the surrounding masonry was loose and prone to collapse again, so it needed to be reinforced.
There is another exit to this dry well, but Chen Zhuoxin doesn't use that exit easily.
Therefore, Chen Zhuoxin asked Yin Hong to find a capable person to repair the dry well.
A few days later, someone reported to Chen Zhuoxin,
"My lord, there is something new going on with the Ji sisters!"
Chen Zhuoxin's head hurt again. He felt that anything related to the two sisters must be up to no good!
