"Tell me carefully," Jiang Yan replied.
Zheng Ji did not hide anything: "Second uncle, ever since Cheng Keyi's daughter suddenly rushed up, I felt that someone was deliberately drawing my attention to Zhang and her daughter."
This point is actually very obvious.
She was guarded by Chang Ding soldiers when she traveled. Ordinary people would stay away if they saw her. However, on the street, a girl of several years old rushed out.
Rather than saying that the servant was negligent and accidentally let the little girl rush out, it is better to say that this is a kind of temptation.
Someone used Cheng Keyi's daughter to test her and wanted to see her attitude towards others.
Before she knew that this was Cheng Keyi's daughter, she had never thought about getting angry and punishing her. After learning that she was Cheng Keyi's daughter, it became even more impossible.
But at that time, she didn't think so much. She just thought that the servant was deliberately causing trouble and that Cheng Yong wanted something to happen to the little girl.
It wasn't until Zhang and Cheng De'an were brought back to Princess Changding's mansion that she tasted a hint of conspiracy.
Cheng Yong devoted a lot of effort to Cheng Keyi, his eldest grandson, and had extraordinary expectations for him, so much so that he could not let go of him after many years, so he developed such a hatred for the Zhang family.
It is understandable that Cheng Yong cannot tolerate Zhang, but what is surprising is that he actually chose such a dirty method.
More importantly, Cheng Yong actually asked the butler around him to do it himself!
In other words, Cheng Yong personally arranged such sinister affairs in the inner house.
Cheng Yong was a veteran of the Three Dynasties. He was also a prominent figure in his own time. He had extraordinary intelligence. No matter how confused he was, he would not act like this.
Doesn't Cheng Yong know what the consequences will be after doing such a thing?
If it were spread out at this time, it would do no good to the Cheng family, and Cheng Yong himself would be drowned in spit.
Moreover, this move will only push Cheng Keyi away, which is exactly the opposite of Cheng Yong's initial expectations.
This is not a way to bring Cheng Keyi back, but an act to enmity with Cheng Keyi.
The hatred of killing his wife and daughter will not end until Cheng Keyi values his wife and daughter.
But Cheng Yong did it in the end. She believed that Cheng Yong was either deceived or overconfident.
Either way, it's unusual.
Cheng Yong has been an official in the court for so many years, doesn't he know that there may be mistakes in everything?
How can he guarantee that Cheng Keyi will not know about this?
Regardless of whether it was the past or present life, Cheng Keyi quickly found out the truth behind Zhang's murder.
In other words, Cheng Yong's plan was not flawless to begin with.
Also, since Cheng Yong planned to drown the little girl Cheng Shao, why did he attack that little girl when Zhang just returned to Jingzhao?
It's unnecessary.
She judged that someone deliberately used the little girl to test her. What happened that time was not actually aimed at the little girl, but at her!
These were all the clues that she could detect only after Zhang came to Princess Changding.
That's why she deliberately let Zhang Jian come to the door arrogantly, deliberately causing Cheng Yong to retaliate.
"Second uncle, you must have noticed it, right? Cheng Yong is a veteran of three dynasties, and of course he has influence, but he acted too quickly on the matter of revenge."
She was certain that Cheng Yong had no idea of her existence before he planned to frame Zhang.
Otherwise, she and he would not be so careless.
In other words, it was after Zhang Jian came to the door that Cheng Yong realized that she wanted to protect Zhang.
In such a short period of time, the Cheng family was able to collect so much evidence, and the evidence was so convincing.
It was as if... someone was secretly helping Cheng Yong.
Jiang Yan nodded and said, "I think so too. I came to you this time just to tell you this."
It is true that no one in the Jiang family holds a high position in the court, and their grasp of the court situation is not that long-term and precise, but the Jiang family knows everything about business affairs.
The Cheng family seems to be very aware of the Jiang family's weaknesses and knows where to attack the Jiang family to be effective.
Although their attack could not injure the Jiang family, it also caused considerable losses.
You must know that the Cheng Jiaqiang of Guide Lane has many children who are serving as officials, and most of their in-laws are in the imperial court.
As the saying goes, officials have official roads, and merchants have commercial routes. The two are like mountains separated by mountains.
How could the Cheng family be so good at business? This must be done thoroughly.
Therefore, he speculated that someone must be helping the Cheng family behind the scenes.
He pondered for a moment and continued: "Cheng Yong probably doesn't know this."
Cheng Yong is a veteran of three dynasties, and his best thing is to protect himself wisely. If he knew that he was being used as a raft, he would definitely not do this.
The Cheng family couldn't bear to think of making wedding clothes for others.
Zheng Ji agreed and said, "That should be the case. So, second uncle, please go find out who is helping the Cheng family secretly."
Her bait had been thrown out, someone had bitten the hook, and she was almost ready to pull up the line.
Zhang Jian has already gone to sort out the officials who echoed Cheng Yong's memorial, but has not found any trace yet.
It is conceivable that the person behind this is very hidden.
She originally planned to ask Li Xing'en to go to the Jiang family and ask her grandfather and others to find out who attacked the Jiang family. Unexpectedly, her second uncle came in person.
"good."
Jiang Yan originally thought that the people who helped the Cheng family behind the scenes were mainly those who competed with the Jiang family for business. He never thought that there was such a scheme behind the scenes.
So, things get complicated.
After Jiang Yan left, he mobilized all the strength of the Jiang family and focused on the Cheng family's actions.
Soon, a discovery was made.
So, he appeared at Princess Changding's Mansion again.
"Xiaojiu, I found that among the businessmen who attacked the Jiang family this time, there are traces of many Jiangnan Road businessmen behind them."
Jiang Yan's words revealed a lot of information.
This result surprised Zheng Ji, but after thinking about it carefully, it was expected.
The Jiangnan Road corruption case ended with the Lin family being ransacked and Lin Heyun being beheaded. On the surface, although the matter was over, she knew that there were still forces behind it.
That force went into hiding after Lin Heyun's incident.
Now the second uncle said that there are traces of Jiangnan Road in the affairs of the Cheng family?
Then, the people behind the Cheng family were also the people behind the Lin family.
"Second uncle, are you sure?"
If this is really the case, then the people behind it are so capable that even Cheng Yong, a veteran of three dynasties, can design it.
But there were traces of Jiangnan Road, but she couldn't find who this person was.
What is certain now is that the people, or forces, behind this must be very familiar with the Cheng family and understand her very well.
Moreover, if he is at odds with her and the Jiang family, he must deliberately deal with her!
Who is this force?
