Lin Ying explained quite calmly.
But Prince Gong couldn't calm down, he couldn't calm down at all!
"What if Duke Zheng and his wife had no idea that Jiang Yingying might be their legitimate daughter who had been missing for over twenty years?
If they knew, they would definitely come to my Prince Gong’s Mansion!
Lin Ying, go investigate and find out whether Duke Zheng and his wife know about this!
If they really don't know, then you can reveal a little bit to make them suspicious.
Once my confinement order is lifted, I will personally go to Duke Zheng's mansion and discuss this matter!"
After Prince Gong said this, Lin Ying knew what he was planning.
Does the prince want Duke Zheng and his wife to acknowledge that he is the benefactor of their Duke's Mansion in finding their legitimate daughter?
"Yes, I will investigate immediately. Your Highness, please do not get excited and take care of yourself!"
Lin Ying agreed and left.
Prince Gong lay on the bed, the ambition and calculation in his eyes were about to become reality.
If Jiang Yingying is really the legitimate daughter of Duke Zheng who has been missing for over twenty years...
Then he really picked up a treasure!
Even though the Duke of Zheng's Mansion has remained neutral for many years and has not sided with any prince.
But for the sake of their legitimate daughter, they will definitely look at him as their son-in-law differently!
but......
Jiang Yingying was just his concubine.
If Jiang Yingying was his princess consort, Duke Zheng and his wife might have given more support to their son-in-law.
But his position as princess was taken by Tian Shanyue......
How can we get Tian Shanyue to give up the position of princess to Jiang Yingying?
Prince Gong narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about how to do this.
Before he could figure out what was going on, a servant came to report.
"Your Highness, the Minister of Rites has just come to ask for an audience.
Seeing that you were busy, I told the Minister of Rites that you were busy and had no time to see him at the moment, and asked him to come see you next time."
Prince Gong didn't think much about it when he heard it. Compared with what happened with Dong Liangce, the matter of Duke Zheng's Mansion was the most important thing now!
Besides, it's time for him to leave Dong Liangce alone.
So that Dong Liangce knows that he is not the only one standing on his side!
If he doesn't show some determination, he will definitely be abandoned by him!
"I understand. Next time if the Minister of Rites comes again, please inform me first."
"Yes, I have noted it. I will take my leave."
The servant turned and left, a hint of mockery in his eyes.
Lin Ying was extremely efficient and he returned with his investigation that very night.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have discovered through investigation that Duke Zheng has been sending people to investigate the news of the missing legitimate daughter.
But there was no clue at all, so the subordinates revealed a little information that Aunt Jiang might be the legitimate daughter to the secret guard of Duke Zheng.
If everything went well, Duke Zheng should have sent someone to investigate Concubine Jiang.
It all depends on whether Duke Zheng can control his temper and not rush to Prince Gong's mansion to see Concubine Jiang first."
Prince Gong was very satisfied when he heard this.
"In my opinion, Duke Zheng might not be able to control his temper. Well, if Duke Zheng comes first, I will have the initiative!
By the way, Lin Ying, please help me think of a solution."
"Yes, I wonder what it is?"
"What can I do to make Tian Shanyue voluntarily give up the position of princess?
And it must not affect my reputation."
Lin Ying was a little surprised by Prince Gong's words, but after thinking about it, he immediately knew Prince Gong's intention.
"Your Highness, do you intend to... make Concubine Jiang your principal wife before confirming her background?"
"Exactly. The King of Knowledge is Lin Ying."
Prince Gong looked at his secret guard and became more and more satisfied.
It's simply the worm in his stomach!
She can accurately guess his thoughts and is very loyal to him!
"So... I have thought of two solutions, and I wonder which one Your Highness will choose.
The princess was very well-behaved and had not committed any of the seven grounds for divorce, so the prince had no reason to divorce her.
But the prince can frame the princess. As long as he makes the princess make a mistake, he can divorce her!
However, this method has a hidden danger. If it is not handled properly, the princess may hate the prince.
Who knows what bad things the princess will do to the prince in the future.
Another way... Only the dead can't talk.
If the princess could be killed peacefully by an accident, the position of princess would be vacant.
The prince can also make Concubine Jiang his wife."
Lin Ying spoke in a light tone, as if she was saying that the moonlight tonight was beautiful.
Prince Gong nodded with satisfaction. "That's right, then let's go with the second method. I'll leave it to you to decide how to implement it."
"Yes, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"
On the other side, at the mansion of Duke Zheng, Duke Zheng learned from the secret guards that Prince Gong's secret guards were responsible for this, and he immediately felt disgusted.
"Prince Gong's calculations have even reached our Duke Zheng's Mansion!
Isn't he just thinking that if Jiang Yingying is really our daughter, he can use her to make our Duke's Mansion stand on his side!
What wishful thinking! Even if Jiang Yingying is really our daughter, let alone whether we will support Prince Gong, I will never let my daughter inherit Prince Gong's concubine! "
Duke Zheng scolded him angrily.
The Duke's wife nodded in agreement.
"That's right. Prince Gong is indeed being too clever this time. I have always had a bad impression of Prince Gong.
I thought I was judging people by their appearance, but I didn't expect that Prince Gong was really not a good person.
If Jiang Yingying were our daughter, we would have persuaded her to leave Prince Gong's Mansion."
The Duke's wife paused after she finished speaking, "By the way, my husband, I have already sorted out the servants in the mansion.
The suspicious ones have all been sold off, and I'm not sure if any of the remaining servants have been bribed.
My husband, please clean it up some other day when you have some free time."
"Well, the more I think about it, the angrier I get!" Duke Zheng slapped his thigh angrily, "Prince Gong is even worse than Prince Kang!"
The Duke's wife's eyelids jumped, and she quickly reached out to cover her husband's mouth.
"My dear husband, please do not discuss the affairs of the royal family. Be careful, there are ears!"
Duke Zheng nodded and took his wife's hand, "I remember that I have decided to remain neutral. No matter who the king is, it has nothing to do with me!
Now I just want to find out whether Jiang Yingying is our daughter or not."
Duke Zheng sighed, and his sigh was filled with helplessness.
The couple was talking in the house, completely unaware that someone had quietly left outside the window half an incense stick of time ago.
In Zheng Erqiang's yard.
Zheng Yaozu rubbed his hands like a fly rubbing its feet and ran back excitedly.
"Mom and Dad, I know something important!"
Zheng Erqiang was holding a pipe and smashing the cigarette, a little impatient, "What's the matter? Don't be so startled."
