Chapter 96 Jiang Rong and I are definitely relatives
"What?" Princess Anyang couldn't believe it. She stood up and stared at the nanny fiercely, shocked and angry:
"What did you say?"
The maid was trembling with fear and stammered, "Xia Shijiaodan is missing... Sun Dagui is dead... All the servants are gone..."
"How could this happen?" Princess Anyang's face turned blue with anger. "Who dares to steal my flowers? Didn't you say it was foolproof? If I had known earlier, I would have sent elite soldiers to escort you!"
With the last sentence, she looked at the scribe.
The scholar knelt on the ground in panic: "Your Highness, this is the safest way. There have never been any exotic flowers in Mianzhou Villa. Even if there are bandits, they will not steal worthless flowers. Ordinary people dare not attack the Princess's Mansion. If you send elite soldiers to escort them, it will attract attention... If they are spied on by the Northern Prince's Mansion, they will be easily exposed..."
"It seems that the news about Xia Shijiao Dan has already leaked out! This is because the information from Mianzhou Villa is not kept secret! The enemy has been prepared for this. If we send elite soldiers to escort them, they will definitely send experts to snatch them..."
The scholar quickly pushed the blame onto the villa.
Princess Anyang said angrily, "Come here, check Mianzhou Villa thoroughly. It must be Jiang Rong... It must be Jiang Rong..."
Apart from Jiang Rong, who else would dare to snatch her miraculous medicine!
He never expected that everything that grew in his own villa could be snatched away by Jiang Rong.
…
Chunyue Pavilion is open for business.
Even though someone was killed a few days ago, in places like this, human life is always valued lightly, and many guests soon gathered there.
The new madam asked the scholar for instructions:
"Are we still accepting those decent girls..."
Chunyue Pavilion had just been involved in a lawsuit because of the trafficking of a decent girl, and the new madam was also afraid.
"Your Highness means that everything should remain the same." The scholar said calmly, "How can we grab business if we don't take in some good stuff? Don't worry, the Mingxin Division can't keep an eye on us every day..."
At this moment, a servant came to report in a hurry: "Manager Zhou, it's bad, the Mingxin Division is here again!"
The scholar's face changed and he hurried out to see.
The brothel, which was originally bustling, was unusually quiet at this moment.
Chu Jue, dressed in Feiyu uniform, sat in the lobby with seven or eight brothers, drinking.
The guests around him all sat upright, without looking around.
Only the dancers were left dancing tremblingly on the platform.
"Lord Chu, hasn't the case been closed? Why are you here again!" The scholar Zhou Gou smiled bitterly.
Chu Jue smiled and said, "I'm here to have fun. What? Your brothel is open for business, but you don't welcome me?"
"How could that be..." Zhou Gou breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Chu Jue continued, "I feel bad for locking you up for a few days. So, to make up for it, I decided that from today on, I will come to support you every day, regardless of the weather."
"This is the only table I'll take!" Chu Jue knocked on the tea table in front of him and looked at Zhou Gou with an especially bright smile:
"Remember to save a seat for me in Chunyue Pavilion. If I don't have time to come, I will let my brothers come. We in Mingxin Division have nothing else but a lot of people!"
All the captains laughed together.
"The boss is so kind!" "The boss is inviting us to a brothel to listen to music, so we have to come!"
Zhou Gou's smiling face turned into a bitter one.
When the guests heard this, many of them left on the spot and decided not to come again.
Who can be happy under the nose of Mingxinsi?
Who would dare to spend money like water? Isn't that clearly corruption?
…
When coming out of Chunyue Pavilion.
The madam didn't even say welcome back.
The subordinates flattered him: "Boss is really amazing. With this trick, how dare they accept kidnapped women again..."
“It’s really amazing.” Chu Jue nodded in agreement. “Seeing the frustrated faces of these bastards, I was able to vent my anger! Jiang Rong is really amazing.”
Thinking of Jiang Rong.
He recalled the familiar feeling of déjà vu.
"I remember now!" Chu Jue suddenly realized, "The last case we handled was about finding the lost daughter of Pinghu Hou. It turned out to be a girl his son rescued on the road. It is said that when he saw the girl, it was obviously the first time he saw her, but he felt very familiar with her, so he immediately went to rescue her, and ended up saving his own sister!"
"This is the blood connection between relatives!"
The subordinate looked confused, "But, the Northern Prince's Consort and you are not siblings, right?"
"So... I was picked up by my father?" Chu Jue was incredulous.
Since it was about his background, Chu Jue went to find his father to verify it immediately.
At this time, Chu Shouchen had just received a message from his subordinates about his son's new job, which was to go to a brothel for a year. How could he do that...
However, he had every right to go out for fun, and Chunyue Pavilion could only feel miserable.
This move is quite beautiful.
A lot of progress.
"Dad!" Chu Jue rushed in and looked at Chu Shouchen with a serious face, "I have a very important question, please tell me the truth!"
"What?"
"Did you pick me up?" Chu Jue looked at him nervously, "In order not to make me sad, you and mother didn't tell me the truth..."
Chu Shouchen's dignified face froze instantly. How could he have thought that his son had improved?
"You little bastard! You deserve a beating, don't you?" Chu Shouchen picked up the bamboo slips on the table and slapped them.
Chu Jue let out a howl and ran out of the door very experiencedly.
But Chu Jue was in a good mood.
He was sure that he was still his father's biological son.
Then, there is only one possibility.
"Someone, go check our Chu family's genealogy!" Chu Jue ordered his subordinates.
Soon, the subordinates brought over a thick family tree.
After a careful search, Chu Jue finally found the evidence!
"Look, my guess was right. Jiang Rong and I must be related by blood. Look at our family tree. Two hundred years ago, my ancestor married a girl from the Jiangbei Jiang family! We were a family two hundred years ago! No wonder I felt she was so familiar." Chu Jue pointed at the family tree, very happy.
The mystery that had troubled him for a long time was finally solved.
"But after two hundred years, isn't the blood relationship a bit thin..." the subordinate couldn't help but remind.
It's not just that the relationship is thin, you two have absolutely no blood relationship at all!
"What do you know? This is called inter-generational affection!" Chu Jue solved a difficult problem and was in a very good mood.
Subordinate:? We are 20 generations apart, can we still be close?
…
Jiang Rong and Xie Lingxi returned to the Northern Palace.
Go and pay your respects to the old empress dowager first.
Xie Ruojiao knew that her brother and sister-in-law would be home today, so she waited for them at home and kept asking Jiang Rong what interesting things they had encountered when they went out.
Jiang Rong skipped the matter of pretending to be the eldest princess, and told the old concubine and Xie Ruojiao about the lotus flowers in Qiaoshui, and presented them with the specialty gifts she brought back.
"Lotus seed tea can clear away heat and relieve summer heat. It's very hot now. The lotus seed tea in Qiaoshui tastes good, so I bought some and brought it back for my grandmother and second sister to taste..." Jiang Rong smiled faintly.
Old Concubine Xie held her hand, very pleased, "My child is thoughtful. It's a good omen that you met the twin lotuses on your trip!"
Xie Ruojiao found it very novel and interesting. She must play with her sister-in-law next time. Woo!
