"No, no, no! There is a very important question here that I need your help to answer. Please pause for a moment."
"what is the problem?"
Jin Miaomiao sat up straight and looked at the three people in front of her seriously, with a very serious expression.
"According to what you just said, the reason for the temporary replacement of the Crown Princess is because the Taifu was seriously ill and died soon. Miss Zhen offered to give up the position of the Crown Princess because she had to observe the filial piety for the Taifu for three years. Location, right?" Seeing the three people nodding, Jin Miaomiao narrowed his eyes, "Is there such a coincidence in the world? At such a critical moment, the master died of illness. He was really ill. Did he die? Or was there some other hidden reason for his death? He had to cover it up by dying of illness? Is the real cause of his death something that is not publicized and cannot be seen in the light? "
"Sister Miaomiao, it's true that you are the best to me!" Hearing what Jin Miaomiao said, Song Qiyun almost jumped up with joy, "As expected, you love me the most!"
"What's going on? How..." Jin Miaomiao was confused by this, "What's going on?"
"This is not important. Let's talk about it later. I have to collect a debt first!" Song Qiyun lightly knocked on the table, stretched out his hand towards Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and said cheerfully, "You two, I am willing to admit defeat!"
"I know, I won't default on my debt!" Shen Cha smiled helplessly, came to Shen Haolin's side, opened the drawer of the small cabinet behind him, took out a prepared small purse from it and threw it to Song Qiyun, "My brother and I , please see if the amount is correct."
"This is..." Song Qiyun caught the small purse, opened it and looked at the contents, and then looked at the two smiling people, "Are you ready? You already knew you were going to lose?"
"She will definitely ask if you choose the opposite one, then this bet will be established only if we choose the opposite one, right?" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other, "If they both choose the same one, then there will be no fun. It’s necessary, right?”
"That's true." The awkwardness in Song Qiyun's heart disappeared after Shen Haolin said this. He raised his hands towards Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "Since my brother and sister gave it to me, my brother will accept it." He put his small purse into his arms and looked at Jin who was confused and hadn't figured out what was going on. Miaomiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Miaomiao, for letting me get a small windfall. To repay you, let's go out for a stroll later and see what you like, and we'll buy whatever you like, okay?"
Jin Miaomiao looked at Song Qiyun, then at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and finally figured out what was going on with them.
"Are you betting on my reaction?" She gently raised the corners of her lips and said with a half-smile, "Is my reaction so interesting?"
"It's quite interesting." Shen Cha glanced at her, "You didn't disappoint us at all, did you?"
"That's you, try someone else, you can't kill him!" Jin Miaomiao snorted and looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "Xiaoyun should be sure that I will ask the Taifu about the cause of death and trace the cause of his death. Since If he wins, it means that Duke Guo and Xiaocha are betting on the opposite, which means I will be fooled, right?"
"That's right." Shen Cha nodded, "But as I said just now, we thought you would ask, but if everyone chooses the same outcome, the bet will be invalid."
"Understood." Jin Miaomiao nodded and looked at Song Qiyun, "Go shopping later!"
"No problem, everyone who meets you will be rewarded!"
"So, what was the cause of Taifu's death? Have Prince Tong and Emperor Chongde conducted an investigation?"
"Actually, there is nothing fishy about this matter. The Taifu really died of illness." Song Qiyun sighed, "Emperor Chongde and Prince Tong were very surprised and shocked when they received the news that Taifu Zhen had passed away. Their reaction was actually the same as ours. The first thing they wanted to do was to find out the cause of death. They found Fu Zuo and the best doctor in the Taiyuan Hospital, and found out all the circumstances of Taifu Zhen from his illness to his death. The results are consistent, Taifu Zhen died of illness, not man-made death."
"The major change of Master Zhen's death not only caught Emperor Jiaren, Emperor Chongde, and Prince Tong off guard, but everyone in the harem, including the old lady, did not react for a while. If we follow the plan that was made before, In the autumn of the new year, Emperor Chongde and Miss Zhen are about to get married, and the Ministry of Rites and the Inner Court Department have begun to get busy. However, Taifu Zhen suddenly died of illness, and the wedding may have to be postponed, because Miss Zhen will definitely have to Whether to observe filial piety, whether it is three years or one year, depends entirely on Miss Zhen's mood." Shen Cha shook her head helplessly, "However, Miss Zhen chose to observe filial piety, and this was decided after discussing with Emperor Chongde and Prince Tong. of."
"After all, her grandfather, who was very close to her, passed away. No matter how cold and indifferent a person is, it is impossible not to be touched at all." Jin Miaomiao nodded, "Miss Zhen's decision is completely understandable. However, ..." She thought for a while, "How was the new candidate determined? Which empress in the harem recommended the crown princess?"
"I don't know which empress it is, but both Emperor Chongde and Prince Tong are sure that it was not the old lady who suggested it." Song Qiyun shrugged, "Why he later listened to the old lady, I don't know. Tong. A big part of the reason is Wang, and part of it comes from Miss Zhen."
"Miss Zhen?" Jin Miaomiao frowned slightly, "What does this have to do with Miss Zhen?"
"Prince Tong said that he once heard some girls in the Prince's Mansion talking, saying that if Miss Zhen hadn't abdicated, the Crown Princess wouldn't even be able to enter the Prince's Mansion. Even though she holds the title of Crown Princess now, it's just a dove occupying a magpie's nest, and sooner or later she will still be there. You have to give it back to others.”
"What you said is indeed a bit harsh." Jin Miaomiao nodded, "I guess not only Prince Tong heard it, but Emperor Chongde also knew it, but he just didn't stop these girls from chewing their tongues behind their backs, which is more conspiratorial. , they deliberately let the Crown Princess hear it. Maybe they wanted her to retreat in spite of the difficulties, or maybe there were other purposes, but..." She waved her hands in disapproval, "In the end, both sides will suffer, it's not worth it. "
"After the Crown Princess was executed, Miss Zhen returned to her original position, but she blamed herself very much." Shen Cha sighed softly, "She will try her best to make up for it for the rest of her life."
"A single mistake can lead to a big mistake." Jin Miaomiao also sighed, "This is how most tragedies in the world are caused."
