Feng Wanwan's words were unintentional, but they made Concubine Hua's heart skip a beat. The blush on her cheeks deepened, making her pretty face even more gorgeous.
She coughed lightly to hide the panic in her heart, and deliberately put on a stern face and spoke in a cold tone.
"We've almost finished our tea, so now we can talk about the sequel. Hurry up and don't keep me in suspense."
"Oh, yes, yes, hurry up and tell me. You're going to get pissed off if you stop talking halfway! Hurry up and tell me, or I'll let my mother punish you with a cane!"
Feng Wanwan's thoughts were interrupted by Concubine Hua's words, and she immediately followed Concubine Hua to pay attention to the follow-up of the Jiangnan incident.
Seeing that Concubine Hua suddenly became serious, Zhu Yinghuai didn't dare to make a fuss anymore and immediately told her what happened next.
"Zhen Yuan Dao was naturally speechless and could not say anything. Lord Meng immediately ordered his men to arrest him and conduct a thorough investigation into the matter.
He was unwilling to say it at first, but soon heard the news that Wang Asan had been captured. It turned out that Lord Meng had set up checkpoints early that night, and Wang Asan was captured before he even left the city.
Zhen Yuandao became dejected when he heard the news and admitted that he had known for a long time that Wang Asan was going to attack An Bihuai, but he claimed that he had nothing to do with the matter and said that everything was done by Wang Asan.
After being arrested, Wang Asan was very righteous. He insisted that he was the only one who did it. He also said that he was responsible for his own actions and that he made great sacrifices to eliminate harm for the people and to create a good official atmosphere in Dayuan. Therefore, he died a worthy and glorious death.
I only ask for a quick death."
"These two are quite stubborn. Wang Asan is a real man, but Zhen Yuan Dao is a real old fox."
When Concubine Hua heard this, she frowned.
"But if this happens, we won't be able to stop Zhen Yuan Dao, the mastermind behind this. How can we make Zhen Yuan Dao bear the punishment they deserve?"
[Zhen Yuan Dao is indeed an old fox. Since he was able to use the trick of borrowing a knife to kill someone, he naturally thought about how to deal with the consequences.]
[This Wang Asan is a brainless, impulsive fool. He is being used without realizing it and still thinks he is doing something glorious and great.]
However, this isn't a difficult matter. If Wang Asan were to see Zhen Yuan Dao's testimony, or even if he were to just let out a breath, he would collapse. After all, being a righteous person is something you do out of your own free will, but being blamed for something is a completely different experience.
Feng Wanwan uttered a few words at this moment.
Concubine Hua's frown moved instantly: Yes, her baby is so smart, this method is really useful.
At this moment, Zhu Yinghuai continued with a smile.
"Master, please be patient and listen to me. Our Lord Meng, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, has been an official for many years and has handled many cases. Matters like the Zhenyuan Dao and Wang Asan are relatively easy for him to handle.
Lord Meng only leaked a little information to Wang Asan, saying that Zhenyuan Dao had put all the blame on him and said a lot of bad things about him, saying that he had been a rogue since he was a child and would fight with anyone he disliked.
Wang Asan was a brainless man, impulsive and irritable. He became furious the moment he heard this, and started cursing Zhenyuan Dao as shameless bastards, immediately pouring out all the facts.
Wang Asan's side was breached, and Zhenyuandao's side was in chaos. The two immediately blamed each other and even told each other the whole conspiracy of that night.
Now, the case was solved. Wang Asan was imprisoned and executed in the autumn. Zhen Yuandao was dismissed from his post, but he was related to the emperor after all, and this matter was directly ordered by the emperor, so he still had to wait for the emperor's decision.
"This Meng Yanbin is a man who knows how to get things done."
Concubine Hua breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and nodded with a smile, but then she thought of something and asked anxiously.
"How is An Bihuai doing now? Is he seriously injured?"
An Bihuai is An Niaoyi's father. An Niaoyi cried and begged her for help because she was worried that something might happen to An Bihuai.
Zhu Yinghuai smiled again when he heard this and was about to speak.
A soft and joyful laugh came from the door.
"Sister Noble Concubine cares about Niaoyi and has helped my father clear his grievances. I am deeply grateful. I did not entrust my father to the wrong person. Sister Noble Concubine is Niaoyi's great benefactor."
"Sister An, you're here?"
Everyone's gaze immediately turned towards the door, only to see a frail figure hurriedly approaching, joy evident in its steps.
Seeing that she was walking in a hurry, Concubine Hua was afraid that she would be tired, so she quickly gave her some instructions.
"Wait a minute. You were too sad that day. Later, I heard from Baojuan that you started coughing that night. How are you now?"
"I just coughed twice, and Baojuan made a fuss and went to the Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial physician. Don't worry, sister, it was just a mental illness. Now that the worries are gone, it will naturally get better."
An Niaoyi walked over quickly with a smile on her face, then took out an exquisite purse from her arms and presented it to Concubine Hua with both hands.
"Thanks to my sister's help, my father was able to escape. I have no way to repay you. For the rest of my life, I will be your pawn, at your disposal."
"Your father escaped because he acted uprightly. I didn't do anything wrong, so there's no need for me to be your pawn. I just hope we can be close and sincere with each other in the future."
Concubine Hua took the purse and praised it repeatedly, and the worry in her heart was finally put to rest.
According to An Niaoyi, An Bihuai's life should be safe, and he has successfully escaped from the case he was implicated in. It seems that he is safe and sound.
An Bihuai should be fine. Since Lord Meng was able to arrange checkpoints and apprehend Wang Asan ahead of time, he should have been able to ensure An Bihuai's safety. An Bihuai should be safe and sound.
