"You look smart. What's your name?" Jiang Weizhen asked.
"General, my name is Mo Shu, and I have been with you for twelve years."
Mo Shu lowered his head and answered cautiously.
[Mo Shu, the book doesn't mention his name, only saying he's the most loyal servant to my uncle, so people believe his words. It seems like he must be the one.]
Jiang Qingwan thought, "How can I make my uncle realize that there's something wrong with him and be on guard against him?"
[Actually, exposing him now isn't the best approach. The best approach is to turn the tables on him and give King Chen a counterattack. Otherwise, King Chen will definitely come up with another plan.]
Jiang Qingwan only hated that he was too young and could do nothing.
What she didn't know was that Yu Shulan and Jiang Weizhen had already thought of a way to deal with this matter.
This matter concerns the survival of the Yu family, how could they not take it to heart.
Ning Anbo and Yu Sanniang had their meal and left early.
When she was the only one left at home, Yu Shulan spoke.
"Brother, you are presiding over this Spring Examination, so please be careful."
"What's wrong?"
Yu Zhongxin was slightly stunned. He, as the Minister of Rites, always presided over the Spring Examination. He was very familiar with the process and there had never been any problems.
But my sister is not the kind of person who talks nonsense. If she said that, something must have happened.
Yu Shulan looked troubled. "I've heard that someone wants to use this Spring Examination to take action against the Yu family."
"Who told my sister?"
"Don't worry about who told you. Since your sister got the news, it must be true."
The eldest princess scolded. She naturally knew where the news came from, but she couldn't let her son know.
[My mother is amazing. How come she knows everything?]
Jiang Qingwan was also curious. She felt that nothing could be hidden from her mother, as she always knew things in advance. She looked at her mother with some suspicion.
[Isn't my mother supposed to have some golden fingers?]
Yu Shulan's face froze. In fact, she said this today specifically to reassure Jiang Qingwan and not worry about it anymore.
She explained, "It's not something I heard from others. When I was investigating Princess De'an's affairs, I discovered that people from Prince Chen's Mansion were frequently in contact with a candidate."
"And that person has contact with people from the Yu Mansion, so I made a bold guess."
Yu Zhongxin's face darkened. He had contact with the examinees and also with the Yu family. Wasn't this secretly looking for ways to cheat?
"Anyway, I want to remind you, big brother, to pay more attention, especially to the people around you."
"Okay, I'll make a note of that."
Yu Zhongxin nodded solemnly. He would never allow anything to go wrong in the Spring Examination.
Seeing that his mother had already become suspicious, Jiang Qingwan felt relieved.
Although I don’t know if this will happen again like in the previous life, it’s always better to be on guard.
Moreover, his grandmother, the Grand Princess, is still alive, so it will not be so easy for Prince Chen to overthrow the Yu family this time.
On this side, Ruan Hezhu thought about it and decided to go find Song Yu.
She didn't dare tell him that Jiang Qingluo might have been reborn.
They just said that there was something wrong with Jiang Qingluo, and that he was always ahead of them in everything, blocking their plans.
So no matter what they do, they cannot follow the original plan and must make changes.
Especially this spring examination.
Ruan Hezhu clearly remembered that this spring examination was the most important beginning to attack the Yu and Jiang families.
Because the Yu family was exiled after the Spring Examination, the reputation of the Jiang family also plummeted. It can be said that this was also the beginning of their victory.
She takes this matter very seriously, and Jiang Qingluo must remember it too.
She would never let what happened in her previous life happen again.
Song Yu frowned and looked at her in confusion, "How do you know about this Spring Examination?"
He clearly remembered that he had never told her about the Spring Examination.
"I...I heard it from Jiang Qingluo."
Ruan Hezhu had already thought of the words, "The last time I went to Jiang's house to talk to Ruan Hezhu about the Xuanyang Palace, she accidentally said something."
"So I guess you guys are planning to do something in the Spring Examination, and Jiang Qingluo knows about it."
"What?" Song Yu stood up suddenly. He did this very secretly and it was impossible for anyone to notice.
Even if there were guesses, it would be impossible to find Prince Chen's Mansion by following the clues.
How could Jiang Qingluo know? "It's impossible for me to know."
"That's why I said there was something wrong with Jiang Qingluo. The same thing happened with Prince Xuanyang's mansion. She contacted the prince before I did, and she also knows some of the treatment methods I know."
The following words were Ruan Hezhu's guess, and also a way for her to save herself.
"And don't you think Jiang Qingluo has changed a lot? He seems like a different person."
"What do you mean? Could it be that she's been possessed by some evil spirit?"
Song Yu actually didn't believe in ghosts, but Ruan Hezhu's description sounded so mysterious that he could only think in that direction.
"It could also be some evil spirit. Anyway, she is no longer the Jiang Qingluo of the past."
Ruan Hezhu felt a little guilty when she said this. Jiang Qingluo was at most reborn, but that body was always hers.
But she was a real wandering ghost who took over Ruan Hezhu's body and pushed the original owner away.
Therefore, Ruan Hezhu only dared to say this in private and did not dare to publicize it, for fear of getting himself into trouble.
Song Yu was silent. Jiang Qingluo was indeed different from before, but he didn't believe that she was a ghost.
"I understand. I will investigate this matter thoroughly."
"Okay, and..." Ruan Hezhu glanced at him cautiously, "Does the prince disagree with me becoming the Crown Prince's consort?"
"No, he said he wants to wait. We just broke off the engagement, so it's not good to get engaged too soon."
Song Yu explained somewhat weakly. He didn't know what was wrong. He was always exhausted lately and felt like he was about to be drained dry.
Ruan Hezhu lowered her eyebrows. She was not in a hurry to get engaged, but because what she and Song Yu did at the post station was seen by everyone.
She is now being pointed at and criticized every day, and Song Yu has not made any move. She is almost becoming the laughing stock of the whole capital.
"Give me some more time, and I will give you an explanation as soon as possible."
Song Yu comforted him.
Now that nothing is going well, he has to suspect that someone is really making trouble on purpose.
Could it be that their Prince Chen's Mansion was really being targeted by someone?
He didn't believe that Jiang Qingluo had such great ability. Could it be that Jiang Weizhen discovered something?
But with his personality, if he found out, he would never tolerate it.
But no matter what, the Jiang family cannot stay.
If the Chen Palace wants to turn things around, they must first bring down the Jiang Palace.
This spring examination is the best opportunity and they cannot miss it.
However, some things need to be changed. If Jiang Qingluo knows about it as Ruan Hezhu said, then failure will be waiting for them again.
