Chapter 967: Slander 2 (Plus More Votes)
Regarding Han Jingyan's rumors, Yuchen learned about it the next afternoon. Hearing these rumors, Yuchen's face turned purple with anger: "Who is spreading these rumors?" Her father is dead, and she still has to suffer such an insult.
Mama Gui said: "The prince has already sent someone to investigate, but this kind of thing is difficult to investigate. "As far as Han Jiancheng's ability is concerned, it will definitely not be a problem, if you let the people of the palace check it. But for this little thing to trouble the prince, there is some fuss.
Yuchen said: "The person who spread this rumor must be the one who killed my father, and we must find out this person." ”
Mama Gui hesitated and said, "Niangniang, the prince obviously has other plans for this matter, and we have to dig deeper into it in case it affects the prince's plan, which is not good." ”
Yuchen was silent and said, "Let's go and check privately." She didn't believe it, and she couldn't find out who was behind it.
Without waiting for Yuchen to send someone to investigate, Han Jiancheng told her the truth the next day. Han Jiancheng said: "The person who killed my father was a man named Yan Keming. ”
Yuchen asked, "How do you know?"
Han Jiancheng said: "I checked the people in the mansion and found that Baimei was not bought through the hands of human teeth, but sent in through a steward in the mansion. The steward had already confessed, saying that a man named Yan Keming had stuffed silver into her. I sent someone to find this Yan Keming, but this person is already dead, and he committed suicide on the night of his father's death. "I was afraid that I would find out, so I just died. Then you will not have to suffer.
Yuchen obviously didn't believe it, and asked, "Who is this Yan Keming, and why did he kill his father?"
After knowing the grievances between Yan Keming and Han Jingyan, Yuchen said: "This Yan Keming is just a chess piece, and the real murderer is not him. "Since this Yan Keming is already down, where can he get the money to buy a maid and buy a steward. Behind this, there must be another person who is pushing the driver.
Han Jiancheng said: "Yan Keming is dead, and it is difficult for the people behind the scenes to find out. To be precise, Han Jiancheng was not willing to investigate further.
Listening to this perfunctory attitude, Yuchen looked angry: "Do you mean that if you don't find out the real culprit behind the scenes, you won't avenge your father?" As a child, how can you watch your father die unjustly.
Han Jiancheng's expression remained unchanged, and he said: "Third sister, I didn't say that I wouldn't avenge my father, but Yan Keming is dead, and all the clues are broken." With my ability, I can't find the real culprit behind the scenes, if the third sister has a heart, I can ask the prince to help find the main messenger behind the scenes. ”
Looking at Han Jiancheng's eyes without a trace of sadness, Yuchen was indescribably angry: "I will definitely find out the real murderer behind the scenes." "People are dead, and what was bad before is selectively forgotten. Now Yuchen only remembers Han Jingyan's kindness to her, so she is also very sad.
Hearing that Yuchen left in a hurry, Lu Yao hurriedly explained the matter at hand to the maid and went to visit Han Jiancheng by himself. Looking at the coldness on Han Jiancheng's face, Lu Yao asked softly, "Husband, what happened just now." ”
Han Jiancheng said: "The third sister asked me to find out the murderer who killed my father, and I said that I couldn't find out, so it was best to ask the prince for help in this matter." She thought I wasn't doing my job and left angrily. ”
Lu Yao said with some complaints: "Husband's words are not wrong, it is too unreasonable for the side concubine to be angry about this." "No matter what, always be on your husband's side.
Han Jiancheng looked up at the window, the white sun was a little dazzling: "Dad has so many children, the most painful is the third sister, her father died unexpectedly, and it is understandable that she wants to find out the murderer to avenge her father." There was more sarcasm in those words.
Lu Yao said: "When I was young, I heard of the name of the side concubine. "Parents naturally prefer smart and lovely children.
Han Jiancheng smiled bitterly and said, "When I was in office, my sisters and brothers were doing well. But back in the capital, because the third sister is too good, our sister and brother are lined up for nothing. He still remembered that Han Jingyan was talking in front of him that if he was Yuchen's son, he would have a successor. At that time, Han Jiancheng was specially glad that Yuchen was not a boy, otherwise there would be a place for him.
Lu Yao weighed it in his heart and said, "Didn't the fourth aunt and grandmother have anything special in the boudoir before?" Lu Yao had heard that Yuxi's embroidery was very good and could embroider on both sides. And people who are generally good at embroidery are generally calm and responsible people. It's a pity that Yuxi subverted this perception of theirs.
Han Jiancheng shook his head and said: "The fourth sister has very high chess skills, and she is very studious and hardworking. I often read books and forgot to eat, and once I didn't leave the study for three days and three nights because I was too fascinated, and finally my aunt forcibly took her out of the study. She estimated that she had read half of the books in the library of the Guogong Mansion. Although the third sister has the reputation of the world's most talented woman, she is actually not as knowledgeable as the fourth sister. It's just that the fourth sister is not a flamboyant person, and there are very few people who know these things. "The people in the mansion will not publicize these things without the permission of their master. Servants with loose mouths don't like any of the masters.
Lu Yao married into the Han family, and it was the first time she heard Han Jiancheng talk about this aunt and grandmother she had never met. After hearing this, Lu Yao said, "No wonder the fourth aunt and grandmother are so powerful. Husband, the fourth aunt and grandmother are so studious, why doesn't my father-in-law like her?" Otherwise, I wouldn't have written such an article in the first place. Reading that article, those who don't know think it's an enemy!
The son doesn't say anything about his father's fault, but Han Jiancheng is obviously not among them. Han Jiancheng said: "It seems that it is the reason of the fourth sister's biological mother, which causes my father to dislike her very much. However, when he was young, his father ignored the fourth sister, and it was not until the fourth sister was criticized by Master Tong as a fate that the father and daughter turned against each other. As for how he turned against each other, Han Jiancheng is not very clear.
Speaking of this, Lu Yao couldn't help but say: "This one is also a person who deceives the world and steals his name. He said that the fourth sister is a person with a declining life, and today, how many women are better than the fourth sister's life?" I don't know how the monk got such a big reputation.
Han Jiancheng said: "It's a pity that many people believed it at that time. Not only did my father believe it, but even my grandmother believed it, but my grandmother could hide it better than my father. Even his biological mother believed it, and even fell into the ground.
Lu Yao felt that this was not quite right: "Auntie, they shouldn't have believed it, right?" Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to the big house. Look at how well the big house mixes in the northwest now. Even if they have the title of the Duke of State, they can't compare.
Han Jiancheng shook his head and said, "I don't believe it." Not only the eldest aunt, but also the eldest brother and the second cousin don't believe it. ”
While the husband and wife were talking, the chief housekeeper Gao Sheng hurriedly walked in and said, "Lord Fu Yin brought a man covered in blood, saying that this person is the murderer of Grandpa Guo. got the order of the side concubine Niangniang, to kill the grandfather of the country in front of the spirit to avenge the grandfather of the country. ”
When the husband and wife heard this, they hurried to the spirit.
The next day, a horrific story spread to all corners of the capital. The fourth daughter of the Duke of Han, who was succeeded and expelled from the clan, and the current Princess of Pingxi, actually ordered her subordinates to kill the Duke of Han. Although this matter was done very secretly, it was still found out by King Yan.
As soon as this incident came out, Yuxi, who had a bad reputation in the capital, would become a street rat that everyone shouted and beaten.
Zhong Shantong said to Tie Kui in a cold sweat: "Kuizi, I didn't expect Yan Wushuang to really slander Princess Pingxi for killing her father. He was still lucky before, hoping that Tie Kui thought about it. Unexpectedly, my worries came true.
Tie Kui said expressionlessly: "There is only what we can't think of, and there is nothing that Yan Wushuang can't do." "For Yan Wushuang, as long as he can hit the opponent, it doesn't matter what means he means, the important thing is that this means are useful.
Zhong Shantong lowered his voice and said, "I just hope what we did before is useful." "This way, it also reduces the damage.
Tie Kui shook his head and said, "The capital is under Yan Wushuang's control, and the news we spread is of limited use, but this matter will be useful in the future." This Yuxi can be used as strong evidence to prove his innocence in the future.
Zhong Shantong said: "Counting the time, four days have passed now, Princess Pingxi should know the news, right? I just don't know how Princess Pingxi will deal with this matter?"
Tie Kui shook his head and said, "I hope Yuxi can have a good way to solve this matter." "It's a little ashamed to say it, he provoked this incident, but in the end, he asked Yu Xilai to clean up the aftermath.
When Yuchen heard this rumor, his face turned green: "How could it be? How could she do this?" How can you do such a thing that is not as good as a beast.
Mama Gui weighed it in her heart, lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, I think there is something strange about this." After a pause, Mama Gui continued: "Niangniang, even if Han Yuxi hates the old lady again, it is impossible for her to do such a thing as killing her father. It's not that Mama Gui wants to say good things for Yuxi, but she knows that Yuchen is just carried away by anger now, and when she calms down, she will know that this is wrong.
Yuchen's clenched fist let go, and finally smiled bitterly: "You're right, Yuxi is not that stupid, no matter how she is, she can't kill her father." "Once the crime of killing the father is confirmed, the history books will have to record a heavy stroke. It's impossible for Yuxi not to understand this kind of consequence.
Remembering that Yan Wushuang said that Bai Mei did not confess to the mastermind behind the scenes, Yuchen's face was blue and purple for a while. What Baimei did not confess, it was obvious that Yan Wushuang was ready to blame Yuxi for this, so he deliberately told him this.
Yuchen's face showed a sad look: "My father is dead, and he won't let it go." "It's okay to use her father before she died, at least his father was willing to do it. But this person is dead, and he still doesn't let it go, which is really chilling.
At this time, there was no one else in the room, but Grandma Gui still looked at the window and door vigilantly, for fear that someone would eavesdrop.
