Chapter 287 No Secret
"Third brother, what do you mean?" Zhan Qingheng's face suddenly turned cold. He actually asked Zhiyan to hand over all her dowry.
"Mu is a fake. The dowry she gave to Princess Rui belonged to a general's wife. Is there anything wrong with me asking her to give it out?" Zhan Beiheng said with a cold look.
Why is Jiang Zhiyan holding it?
Zhan Qingheng was speechless for a moment and felt very depressed.
When I first married Jiang Zhiyan.
He had seen her trousseau, which was several boxes and quite substantial.
Naturally, he was unwilling to hand over so many things.
Jiang Zhiyan's face turned pale. The dowry given by the Jiang family was very little, while the Mu family gave her a lot. If she gave it all away, she would be left with no private money.
But if she doesn't pay it, she won't be able to justify it.
After all, those things do not belong to the Mu family, and she is still a spy.
"Princess Rui, please take a careful inventory today. Those are the dowries of the general's wife. There is a list for everything. I will check it carefully when I send someone to get them." Zhan Beiheng reminded her.
Otherwise she might do something tricky and not return the full amount!
"I understand." Jiang Zhiyan almost bit her teeth, feeling upset and even more worried about her future.
Originally thought that Mu family would help her.
As a result, she couldn't help her and even became a burden to her.
She is no longer a daughter of a general, she has no dowry and no children. It seems that Mu's plan to put a captive on the two children has not succeeded.
With such a girl, how could the Queen and the Prince still value her?
Her life in the palace will become increasingly difficult in the future.
Suddenly, Xianglian ran to the door in a hurry.
"Your Highness, the concubine has been vomiting. Can you go over to see her?" Xianglian said quickly and anxiously.
Zhan Qingheng looked at Zhan Beiheng, "Third brother, my concubine had morning sickness. Oh, you haven't experienced it, so you won't understand even if I tell you. Please do as you please."
After saying this, he left triumphantly.
After all, his woman was pregnant and he was by her side.
Zhan Beiheng was not with Jiang Nanjiao.
Zhan Beiheng's handsome face was tense and his jawline was unusually sharp. He admitted that at this moment he was a little envious of Zhan Qingheng because he could stay with the woman who gave birth to his child.
And he didn't know when Jiang Nanjiao became pregnant, or how she survived those months. He didn't fulfill his responsibility at all.
She was murdered while giving birth.
He was not with her.
Eventually she lost her memory and was separated from her children.
"Prince Jin, shall we go?" Pei Tianci looked at the man with a livid face.
Zhan Beiheng stood up and walked outside.
Pei Tianci followed.
"The Dali Temple can convict Mu, but the general's wife who was hidden by her has not been found yet, so the execution cannot be carried out now." Zhan Beiheng said coldly.
"I will first compile the evidence that Mu is a traitor and submit it to the emperor. I will deal with the rest after we find the general's wife." Pei Tianci said loudly.
Impersonating a general's wife is also a serious crime.
The execution should wait until the general's wife is found.
"Okay." Zhan Beiheng said and quickly got on his carriage. He still had to go to the temple to see if he could find any clues.
The carriage left quickly.
"The king asked someone to investigate the person who was good at disguise. Is there any news?" Zhan Beiheng said to Mo Li who was driving the carriage outside, with a terrifying coldness in his eyes.
If it weren't for the other party, Nan Jiao wouldn't have run to the Island of Sin with a big belly and been besieged and in trouble.
"Master, there are many people who can perform disguise techniques. If you want to find someone who is an expert at disguise techniques, you have to screen them carefully. There is no result yet." Mo Li said.
"Hurry up!" Zhan Beiheng said coldly.
"Yes, I'll urge them." Mo Li said quickly.
Zhan Beiheng closed his eyes and rested. He couldn't help but recall the year when Nan Jiao was pregnant. No wonder she didn't appear in front of him in the months before she disappeared.
I guess it was because my belly was big at that time and I didn’t dare to be seen by him.
…
general's mansion.
Nan Jiao left Mu's yard. She and the guards from the Dali Temple searched for a long time but found no other clues, although those pieces of paper could be used as evidence.
But she wanted to see if she could find others.
When Jiang Yan and Jiang Yu saw her coming out, they immediately went to greet her. At present, the courtyard was still guarded by the Dali Temple, so they could not enter.
"Fifth sister, have you found any clues?" Jiang Yu asked. He was so angry when he thought that Mu was a spy. He didn't expect her to act so well.
The point is, he really treated her as his mother before and trusted her very much.
Nan Jiao shook her head. “I guess she destroyed all the other evidence.”
Jiang Yan said coldly: "She is a spy, she must be very cautious, and I don't know where she hides my mother."
"Did Madam Qiu find out anything?" Nan Jiao's eyes were cold.
"She insists that she knows nothing, so we can't torture her. What if she is really innocent?" Jiang Yan put his hand on his forehead.
"I'll go and interrogate her." Nan Jiao narrowed her eyes. She couldn't get any information from the Mu family, so she could only think of other ways. She felt that Aunt Qiu must know something.
After all, she has been with the Mu family for a long time.
The three of them went to a small courtyard in the general's mansion together. There was someone guarding the gate of the courtyard.
"Princess Jin." When Pang Hu saw Nan Jiao coming, he immediately saluted. Now he was in charge of taking people to guard Nanny Qiu. He didn't expect that she was really the leader of Shura Sect.
"Thank you for your hard work." Nan Jiao said with a smile.
"It's not hard, it's what we deserve." Panghu said with a smile. After the news that she was the leader of Shura Sect spread, the brothers were excited.
Originally they were still trying to come up with some difficult questions to test her.
Now where still needs to be tested.
As she is the leader of Shura Sect, it is enough to prove her ability.
Nan Jiao walked towards the small courtyard.
In the room.
Nanny Qiu was sitting at the table and was not tied up.
"This old servant has met the Princess of Jin." When she saw Nan Jiao coming, she immediately stepped forward to pay her respects.
"I'm here to interrogate you today. Not only did Mu pretend to be a general's wife, she was also a spy for the enemy country. Do you really know nothing?" Nan Jiao looked at her with a smile.
Aunt Qiu's eyes widened and her face turned pale. "She, she is a spy?"
Nan Jiao walked to the table and sat down. "I heard that your son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren returned to their hometown in the countryside. Beijing is so good, why did you suddenly go back?"
"They feel there is more freedom in the countryside." Nanny Qiu said naturally.
"Brother has already arranged for people to pick them up. They should arrive in the capital soon. Sheltering spies will implicate your family. Madam Qiu, you must think carefully." Nan Jiao said with a smile.
Aunt Qiu staggered and then knelt on the ground, panicking, "Princess Jin, I can guarantee that I really didn't know she was a spy."
Nan Jiao smiled deeply, "So you know that she's pretending to be the general's wife?"
"I was a little confused at first, but then my son's shop got into trouble and she helped to solve it. She also gave them some money to go back to their hometown in Nanyang."
"I was extremely grateful at that time. Thinking that the young lady had always been kind-hearted, I no longer doubted her. I absolutely had nothing to hide." Nanny Qiu assured with red eyes.
She was telling the truth.
Because of the favor, she put aside her doubts.
