Chapter 417 Shu Yu Only Has One Month
Shu Yu, “…” She was even more wronged than Dou E.
Seeing that she was just bowing her head and not saying anything, Meng Yunzheng knew that she was not feeling well, even though the room was dimly lit with candles.
Meng Yunzheng clenched his fists. "Don't worry, although it's exile, I'll make arrangements for you along the way and won't let you suffer. Once you get to your place of exile, it will be at most three months before you come back."
Shu Yu looked up in surprise. He was thinking the same thing as her?
Three months is indeed a very short time.
Meng Yunzheng smiled and said, "There are some things I shouldn't tell you, but since you're involved now, I'll explain them to you."
"What's up?"
"There are two factions in the court that are currently engaged in fierce competition: one faction is supported by the Second Prince, and the other is supported by the Third Prince. The Shu family is supported by the Third Prince, so naturally, the Second Prince is targeting them. Of course, all of this is on the surface; there is another force lurking in the shadows."
Shu Yu knew that this force belonged to the Fifth Prince.
The male protagonist in the book is one of the Fifth Prince's men. Not only him, but the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review also seems to take sides with no one, only obeying the Emperor's orders. In fact, he is also one of the Fifth Prince's men. This time, he is in charge of the Shu family case. On the surface, it seems that the Second Prince is reaching out to the Shu family, intending to cut off the Third Prince's power in Dong'an Prefecture.
But when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits; the one who truly orchestrated all of this was the fifth prince.
Since the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review is the Fifth Prince's man, then Xiang Weinan, who has a close relationship with him, is naturally one of them as well.
so……
Shu Yu looked at Meng Yunzheng in front of her, "Are you all working for this prince who is secretly lurking? Are you one of them?"
Meng Yunzheng was taken aback, then laughed and said, "No, my relationship with him is more like a partnership. We just have a common enemy. Once we take him down, I will have nothing to do with him anymore. So I don't get involved in many things."
To avoid getting too deeply involved and making it difficult to extricate oneself unscathed.
Actually, he didn't need to concern himself with the Shu family's affairs. His current task was simply to find the Abbot of Dongqing Temple.
He only cared so much because of Shu Yu.
Meng Yunzheng didn't tell Shu Yu who this prince was, but he did reveal quite a bit of information.
Meng Yunzheng continued to analyze with her, "Even if you are not the daughter of the Shu family, just in case, the Second Prince's people will definitely look for your whereabouts. Even if Lord Jing intends to help you, he cannot take too many actions, otherwise, if his identity is exposed, he will also be in danger."
Shu Yu nodded. "Will they find this place?"
“I know your concerns; you’re afraid of dragging the Lu family into this. But don’t worry, Jiangyuan County is now within Xiang Weinan’s sphere of influence. He will try his best to conceal your whereabouts and ‘find’ you again in a month.”
There's only one month left.
It seems she doesn't have much time left.
Zhao Xi comforted her, "Actually, a month is quite a long time. Your Aunt Xue really wants to find you and kill you. She's said everything she should and shouldn't have said. She didn't know your maternal grandmother's identity when she bought you, but the transaction location was there. Even if it wasn't in Jiangyuan County, it's not far from here. The people looking for you will definitely come in this direction as soon as possible."
Therefore, one month was the longest time that Xiang Weinan and his team could get.
