Chapter 604



Jian Xiu nodded, without commenting.

It was not until he saw Zhang Zifu rushing in that Zhang Zixuan simply told him what was on his mind.

While he was saying these words, Wang Xiuying was standing beside him.

Although she didn't quite understand, she knew the seriousness of the matter.

"Be careful. Don't worry, we are safe at home!" Wang Xiuying said to them.

Jian Xiu nodded towards Wang Xiuying, "Sister-in-law, I'll leave things here to you."

Of course, before leaving, Jian Xiu did not forget to explain Goudan's matter to Wang Xiuying.

"Fourth brother's wife, do you want to let Goudan go to the academy? Shu Xiu, you will pay for it?"

"Oh, just consider it as a reward for taking care of Feilan before. Besides, he is really a good kid."

Having said that, Jian Xiu looked Wang Xiuying up and down again.

Just this one look also let Wang Xiuying see that she had nothing else to tell herself.

She understood Jian Xiu and knew that if there was nothing wrong, she would not look at her like that.

Yu 놆 said: "Do you still need to be so polite to each other?"

"I don't know when I will be back from this trip to the capital, and I don't even know what the capital looks like, but I had planned to build a college in the village before..."

"So you plan to let 놖 supervise the construction of the academy, 놆?" Wang Xiuying interrupted Jian Xiu놅 and asked.

Jian Xiu nodded, then took out a piece of rice paper, on which was the draft of the academy's painting.

Wang Xiuying took it and said, "What do you think it is? It's just this matter. Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Not to mention that Jian Xiu left behind so many servants, she would be happy even if there were no servants.

Besides, as for building a college, given their current situation, there is no need for them to move.

After all, all she needs is a supervisor?

She was also happy to build a college in Zhangjia Village. Even if Jian Xiu didn't tell her, she wanted to contribute her own strength.

But don't forget, she herself is also from Zhangjia Village.

Because she was worried that Wang Xiuying might not have enough people, Jian Xiu left six, eight, nine, and ten people, a total of five people, in the village, and she kept the others with her.

From Zhang Liu to Zhang Shi, their martial arts had already changed.

With the experience gained from the battlefield, their martial arts skills have improved by leaps and bounds. Jian Xiu feels more at ease keeping them by Wang Xiuying's side.

Looking at the group of people, Wang Xiuying was also quite worried.

Several people from the battlefield have just returned safely. If something like this happens again, I hope everything can go smoothly.

..............................................................................................

Six days later, in the capital.

When Jian Xiu and his companions arrived in the capital, it was already the evening of the sixth day.

Instead of returning to their own residences, they went directly back to Pingyuan Marquis Mansion.

"Dear, what's the situation now?" Zhang Zixuan asked Chi Jinzhong as soon as he entered the door.

"The emperor is ill." Ike Jinzhong said concisely.

"Are you sick? Didn't you find someone?"

"I looked for it, but there's nothing I can do." Chi Jinzhong said sadly.

Having said that, Chi Jinzhong looked at Jian Xiu again.

With just one glance, Jian Xiu saw through his thoughts and asked, "What happened to the Fourth Prince?"

"Well, it is said that he was placed under house arrest by the crown prince."

Hearing this, Jian Xiu's heart subconsciously tightened.

When I think of the sunny boy who called me sister, my heart aches.

He never expected that such a thing would happen after he had only been away from the capital for a few days.

Just by hearing that he was under house arrest, Jian Xiu could guess how much he had suffered in the past few days.

"What did the prince say?" Jian Xiu asked again.

"It is said that the maidservant beside the crown prince said that she personally saw the fourth prince poisoning the emperor."

"Poison? Aren't you sick?"

"At first they said he was sick, and later when they went to treat the emperor, they said he was poisoned." Chi Jinzhong said again.

At this point, Chi Jinzhong glanced at Jian Xiu again, and then continued: "The maidservant beside the prince jumped up and said that she saw the fourth prince poisoning."

"Where is the Fourth Prince under house arrest?" Jian Xiu asked again.

"Zongrenfu!"

"Why should he?" Jian Xiu said gritting her teeth.

You know, that's the Zongrenfu.

In the eyes of the royal family, the Zongrenfu was equivalent to a prison, and was usually used to detain princes who had made mistakes.

Generally speaking, the emperor makes the final decision.

But if the emperor has fallen into a coma, it means that the crown prince has ordered the fourth prince to be placed under house arrest in the clan residence.

The prince entered the clan residence, and it would be extremely difficult for him to come again.

Especially in the case of the emperor, if anything happens to him, the Fourth Prince will definitely die in the clan residence.

Zhang Zixuan, who was standing by, became anxious when he saw Jian Xiu's expression. He patted her shoulder gently and comforted her:

"Don't be too anxious. He won't be in trouble. When you were not in the capital, he didn't dare to do anything to the Fourth Prince. He knew your relationship with him. If he is still alive, we will be able to prove his innocence."

"Isn't this obvious? The maid above the prince said this, how could this maid see it? Isn't this a blatant slander?"

At this point, Jian Xiu turned to Chi Jinzhong and said, "Don't worry, that maid should be dead now, right?"

Chi Jinzhong nodded and said again:

"That's where the problem lies. When the maid disappeared, the Crown Prince was the first to speak up, and at that time, the Fourth Prince happened to be with the maid. So, in everyone's eyes, the Fourth Prince was the one who destroyed the body and covered up all traces."

"Has anyone seen the Fourth Prince since then?" Zhang Zixuan asked.

"No, the prince said that as long as the emperor doesn't wake up, he won't be able to see anyone, and he's worried that someone will harm the emperor."

"Besides that maid, what other evidence does he have to prove that he poisoned the Fourth Prince?" Jian Xiu asked again.

He knew very well that the prince would not be so reckless.

To put it another way, even if the prince could be so reckless, the queen would not be so reckless.

The fourth prince is a prince, and if he is detained in the clan house, there must be witnesses and evidence.

The so-called evidence of the prince was all found around him, and his purpose can be imagined.

Can't you try a new trick for this old-fashioned frame-up?

She had seen a lot of these things in TV dramas in her previous life, and now that she had traveled through time, she had to face them all.
