Chapter 213 The drama in the prince's backyard
Yun Qingqing's eyebrows were slightly cold, and she was not surprised to hear this.
It is precisely because of this insidious method of disguising oneself as a woman to commit suicide that the number of reports received by the authorities is far less than the number of girls who were actually abducted.
"Not only that..." Yan Haochu was silent for a moment, then looked at Yun Qingqing solemnly, "Master, have you known for a long time that the government has their backers behind this, so they were able to hide it for so long?"
"Have you found any clues?" Yun Qingqing did not deny it.
She had not pointed out the umbrella behind the trafficking before. On the one hand, the time was not right, and on the other hand, Yan Haochu's original murder was due to his interference in this matter.
However, because he has been close to Su Anrong recently and is quite liked by the little girl Tongtong, his fortune has changed a lot and the disaster has been resolved. So she doesn't need to intervene too much and it's better to let him solve it himself.
"I have found some clues," Yan Haochu told her without hesitation, "but... the clues directly point to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion being behind the kidnapping and trafficking case. This is a serious matter, and I would like to seek the Master's guidance."
Yun Qingqing was a little surprised:
"Lord of Loyalty and Bravery? Lord Ye?"
Isn’t that Ye Zhishen’s father?
She narrowed her eyes thoughtfully, immediately used Ye Zhishen's horoscope to tell a fortune, and then said:
"Come with me."
She took Yan Haochu directly back to Tianming Pavilion.
After closing the door, she said:
"The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery has acted with a clear conscience, but the Ye Mansion has indeed been harmed by a villain recently, and the incident is someone else's fault."
Yan Haochu glared slightly:
"Who is this person who could plot against the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery? It seems he must be someone powerful."
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since he discovered that the trafficking case might have the support of government officials, he has been investigating secretly.
Later, he discovered that the clues pointed directly to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. Although he was shocked, he did not dare to jump to conclusions. After all, this matter was too serious, so he immediately thought of asking Master Qingyun for help.
At this moment, he just felt that it was a good thing that he asked one more question, otherwise if he really implicated the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, he would become a knife in the hands of the evildoer.
He was thinking this when Yun Qingqing suddenly curled her lips coldly and said:
"Go back to the Ministry of Justice and report the clues immediately."
Yan Haochu was stunned:
"But... that's exactly what the mastermind behind this is aiming for, causing the Loyal and Brave Marquis to suffer an unjust fate...hiss!"
He looked at Yun Qingqing's meaningful eyes and suddenly understood:
"Master, you're planning to play the long game and catch a big fish!"
Yun Qingqing nodded approvingly: "This young man is teachable!"
She explained the plan in detail to Yan Haochu, and before he left, she suddenly called him.
Yan Haochu turned around:
"Master, do you have any other instructions?"
Yun Qingqing looked at him seriously:
"Pay attention to the situation in the Su Mansion these days. Someone is targeting her."
Yan Haochu's expression became serious, and he saluted her properly.
"Thank you for your advice, Master. I will definitely protect them, mother and daughter."
Yun Qingqing looked at his leaving back and curled her lips slightly.
It’s not all about protection.
The capital is going to be very lively these days.
…
…
Prince's Mansion.
"Where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? I want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The shrill screams accompanied by the sound of things smashing could be heard from far away outside the door.
Yun Bailian slammed another teacup onto the ground, rushed to the door and banged on it frantically:
"Let me out! You bastards, don't even listen to the words of a princess like me? Aren't you afraid that the Crown Prince will punish you?"
The guard outside the door endured for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said:
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince personally ordered your house arrest, and we are only following orders. Please don't make things difficult for us."
"You're lying! This isn't true!" Yun Bailian gritted her teeth and continued to pound on the door. "You've clearly accepted bribes from that bitch and secretly imprisoned this Crown Princess! You're committing treason! When I get out, I'll chop off your heads!"
No matter how she banged on the door, no one paid any attention to her. Yun Bailian was tired of making trouble and sat dejectedly in the corner, crying in frustration.
How could this happen? She is clearly the Crown Princess, the Phoenix!
Doesn't she already have so much luck that everything she does will come naturally?
Why is it that since the day of offering sacrifices to heaven and praying, the good luck that I had accumulated with great difficulty seemed to disappear overnight, and instead everything started to go wrong and bad luck kept coming my way!
During this period, she was first confined to her room by the emperor's order, and later she was stung by a swarm of bees, leaving her face covered with bruises until she passed out.
After she had been examined by the imperial physician and felt a little better, she immediately took out the bronze mirror from under the bed in the dead of night.
When the glittering and colorful beads of luck floated out from the bronze mirror, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She hasn't had the chance to leave the house recently and hasn't been able to collect more "luck animals". Now the speed of producing luck beads has also dropped significantly, and it is estimated that they will be exhausted soon.
But these good fortunes are at least enough to sustain her for a while, and with the good fortunes, the house arrest will surely be lifted soon. Then she can collect the good fortunes again, and she will be able to return to her previous wishes!
Yun Bailian was very confident at that time.
She secretly called those who had signed the transportation exchange contract under the pretext of a prize at the poetry appreciation party "transportation animals" - livestock raised specifically to provide her with luck.
However, in order to escape quickly, she crushed all the luck beads, which made her luck even worse!
The bee sting did not heal but worsened, almost taking her life. It took her several days to recover.
During this period, the prince only accompanied her for half a day at the beginning and never came again!
The servant stammered that the prince was busy with official duties, but she knew that the prince was also under house arrest and it was impossible for him to be busy with any official duties.
As soon as she was able to walk again, she immediately searched the whole house for the prince, but she ran into him reciting poems and painting with that bitch Su Yurou in a passionate way!
She couldn't hold back and rushed forward to scold Su Yurou for seducing the prince, but he pushed her to the ground and scolded her for being ignorant and unreasonable.
Yun Bailian left crying. After enduring for a few days, she finally found an opportunity when the prince and the people sent by the queen were having a secret conversation, and went to settle the score with Su Yurou.
She took advantage of her status as the queen and slapped Su Yurou hard to vent her anger.
Unexpectedly, Su Yurou not only did not fight back, but also sneered and tore her clothes, revealing even her bellyband.
Just when Yun Bailian didn't understand what tricks she was playing, Su Yurou pulled her hair into a mess again, threw herself at her feet, hugged her legs and cried for mercy.
Su Yurou cried and said that she would never dare to compete with her for the Crown Prince again. Yun Bailian saw her miserable and crazy appearance and thought that she had gone insane. She had no pity for her and instead scolded her proudly, "You deserve it, you bitch."
The next moment, Yun Bailian was violently pulled away and thrown to the ground. When she stood up with pain, she saw Xiao Zirui holding Su Yurou, looking at her with murderous eyes.
Yun Bailian finally realized that she was being plotted against and hurriedly explained, but Xiao Zirui simply refused to listen to her.
All because Su Yurou cried and trembled in his arms, saying that the Crown Princess wanted to strip her clothes off, scratch her face, and disguise her as a punished maid to be thrown to the servants for humiliation!
Xiao Zirui was furious on the spot!
