"Master, my mother will be performing in the capital next month. Find a way to bring my father out."
After Cheng Kang sat down again, Mo Zheng said directly.
"If it's next month, wouldn't that be the Ghost Festival?"
Cheng Kang frowned.
"That's right, the Ghost Festival. There's still a month to go. During this month, my sister-in-law will build a hall in the capital, and mother will hold her concert there. My goal is to let the emperor accidentally see the scars on my mother's feet. Combined with my brother and mother's previous actions, he will suspect the imposter in the palace!"
"My father is a suspicious man. He's probably never doubted my mother in his life. If we arouse his suspicion of the imposter, he'll surely be able to find out something with his abilities."
"The Xiao and Lu families have been quite influential in the imperial court for many years, and it's impossible to shake them all at once. But the power of these two families must be eradicated. I've received a lot of information during my recuperation, and I've already made some arrangements. Lord, you can rest assured that after we eliminate the power of these two families, there won't be any major unrest in the imperial court!"
The prince explained.
Cheng Yue quietly watched the Crown Prince and Earl Anyuan discussing state affairs, with Master Li occasionally saying a word or two.
She felt that she had not idolized the wrong person.
Her idol is indeed someone worthy of being an idol, of course, apart from his philandering nature.
She used to think it was just a rumor, but when the real person said, "I like them all," Cheng Yue's worldview was shattered.
However, she has figured it out in the past few days. Her idol is not a modern person. In ancient times, he was a prince who was about to become the emperor.
In ancient times, no one would allow the emperor to have only one woman.
Even if the emperor wanted a pair, he would be forced by his ministers to find more.
So, she automatically stopped thinking about his infidelity, since he was not her man anyway.
Mo Zheng has also learned a lot in modern times. Judging from the various plans he told Cheng Kang, these are not things that an ancient person would do, and many of them involve modern methods.
Cheng Yue is self-aware and knows that she does not have such things in her mind, so she will not say anything to mislead others.
…
The Cheng family arrived in the capital smoothly and allowed the prince to meet Cheng Kang. Everything was going well.
However, Cheng Jinxing, the one from the Cheng family who was not traveling with him, encountered some troubles.
Cheng Jin passed Yangzhou and arrived in Suzhou.
Gu Yan, whom he met that night, was also chasing him on horseback.
Cheng Jinxing could have said nothing along the way, but Gu Yan kept chattering. If they met the old Cheng Jinxing, these two would have quarreled every day, but now Cheng Jinxing was preoccupied with something and almost ignored them.
When the two men arrived in Suzhou, they encountered a group of bandits before they even reached the city.
Cheng Jinxing chased after the bandits because of a pair of earrings in their hands, and then he and Gu Yan were captured by the bandits and taken back to the mountain.
This mountain stronghold is called Feihuzhai.
There are a total of 137 people in Feihu Village.
There are three people in charge, said to be three siblings, with the surname Sun.
The eldest is Sun Dahu, the second is Sun Erhu, and the third is Sun Sanniang.
"Hey, I told you you can't beat these guys, so why are you pretending to be unable to beat them and getting me arrested with you?"
"Are you ill?"
"Or did you do it on purpose?"
"You were annoyed by my disturbing you, so you deliberately got caught, and then left me alone and walked away from me?"
"Hey, say something!"
