Chapter 397 Disposition
Meng Zhimo only returned to the Duke of Cheng Guo Mansion at the end of Zi Hour. After conferring with Old Master and, Duke Cheng, and Second Master Meng, he returned to the Floating Life Residence.
He lightly entered the clean room to wash up. When he came out, he saw Jiang Yishi already sitting up and leaning against the bed.
“Awake?”
“Uh, did you find out what happened?”
Meng Zhimo’s face was serious, sat up on the bed and said, “It’s been found out, the mastermind is indeed Guo ……”
Meng Ruimo went to the Yong Wang Fu, said from a reliable source, Yong Wang Fu tube cleaning Zhao mother-in-law abetted by people, in that place to get a piece of ice ……
In the morning, Li Kai interrogated all of the Wangfu’s grannies and maids, and didn’t ask for a reason. He had to beat the cleaning supervisor ten boards, the inner courtyard supervisor ten boards, twenty boards for the granny maid who specialized in cleaning there, and twenty boards for the Zhao granny.
After hearing Meng Zhimo’s words, Li Kai ordered to block the news from spreading into the inner courtyard, and immediately sent people to bring in Granny Guo and Granny Zhao for interrogation.
Granny Zhao was terrified as soon as she was brought in and told the truth before she was even tortured. She confessed that Granny Guo had given her two hundred taels of silver to get a piece of ice skating there.
Guo Granny started to bite the bullet and denied it, and only after being tortured did she tell the truth.
Indeed is the Yong Wangfei let her do.
The reason why I found the little colorful butterfly, because the little colorful butterfly surface no relatives, in fact, has been privately recognized with his brother. Granny Guo had her own son lure Little Cai Die’s brother into gambling and owed eight hundred taels of silver.
Little Cai Die’s brother had one of his fingers cut off and cried out in pain begging for his sister. Thinking of exchanging one of her own lives for five of her brother’s family, and getting a good reputation as a loyal slave who would be buried in a generous manner, Little Cai Die agreed to do it.
As for why the Yong Wangfei want to harm Jiang Yishi, Guo Brahmin is also not clear ……
After the interrogation, only then the King of Yong invited.
The King of Yong did not quite believe it, and personally interrogated Granny Guo again, and got the same answer, so angry that he smashed his tea bowl.
He pondered for a moment and asked Meng Zhimo, “From what channel did you learn that it was Granny Zhao and Granny Guo who did this?” His face sank even further, and there was anger in his eyes, “Did you, the Duke of Cheng, or this king’s royal brother, plant spies in the Yong Wang Mansion?”
Meng Zhimo denied, “Your Highness has high regard for the Duke of Cheng’s Mansion, we don’t have that kind of ability yet. As for whether or not His Majesty has planted spies, His Majesty has not asked my subordinate to do so, so my subordinate does not know.
“The reason why I guessed it was Zhao’s mother-in-law, is that after the incident, I sent someone to spy on the Yong Wangfu subordinates, and I heard that Zhao’s son’s hand is particularly large during this period of time, and Zhao’s mother-in-law is in charge of sweeping. Then guessed that she might have been involved.
“As for Guo granny, just suspect, she is the Yong Wangfei’s intimate beloved, those secret things must be handed over to her to do …… facts proved that belongs to the guess right.”
He also sank his face, “Your Highness so, is preemptive, do not want to give our victims an account?”
The reason why Meng Zhimo knew that Granny Zhao had a son was that when Li Kai sent the royal guards to arrest someone, Meng Lianshan followed. Granny Zhao’s son was in his twenties and looked like a rash. The fact that her son had a big hand was also Meng Ruimo’s guess.
King Yong glanced at Meng Ruimo. Although the two points he said were both guesses, it can only show that people are smart, and not show that they must have planted a spy in their own home.
He glared at his son, who was not a bit worse than Meng Ruimo. This kind of family affairs, should not first their own trial, think about how to deal with, and then tell them?
King Yong was busy saying, ”Lord Meng is overly concerned, this king is just a question. If the king’s princess is really involved, the king will not show favoritism and will give you an explanation.”
The interrogation of Yong Wangfei would definitely not be seen by Meng Zhimo, Meng Cai excused himself and left.
Jiang Yishi asked, “It’s been verified, can Guo be executed? There’s also the behind-the-scenes Consort Zhao Shufei, if Guo confesses to her, how will she be dealt with?”
She knew that Guo wouldn’t be executed, but still asked this. She just wanted Guo to pay with her life.
Meng Zhimo shook his head and gathered Jiang Yishi into his arms and said, “Impossible. Guo is a royal concubine, and executing her would have to go through the emperor and the clan government. This is a scandal for the Yong Royal Family, and it also involves Consort Zhao Shufei, so they won’t say it in the open. Disposing of Guo would find another excuse.
“As for Zhao Shufei, even if Guo confesses, the Yong King will only report to the Emperor in private……. The lives of their subjects are nothing in their eyes, let alone an unborn child. Li Shao is our Meng family forced the Emperor to give death, this time can not go to force.
“Grandfather has led troops to war many times and is highly respected, so we can’t let the Emperor have the slightest dislike or scorn for him. Otherwise, it will be unfavorable to our Meng family, and it will also have an effect on King Ping ……”
Jiang Yishi said in grief, “They killed my son ……”
Meng Zhimo said coldly, “My son will not die in vain. I’ll find a way to take Guo’s life when the wind passes, and Consort Zhao Shufei, I won’t let them go. It’s not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. You should not worry too much, and Li Zhenbao, there are some things we are not good at, she can do ……”
The two of them embraced each other in silence for a while, and Meng Zhimo said, “Master said that after this robbery, you will be smooth for the rest of your life.”
Jiang Yishi said, “But the child is gone.”
“We are still young, there will be ……”
The next morning, as soon as Li Zhenbao opened her eyes, she saw Hua Hua sleeping straight next to her like a popsicle.
In the past two days, only this little thing could make her happy.
She had just finished dressing when Su Wei ran in from outside.
“Sheriff-mistress, I heard from sister Fuqi that the person who did the harm has been found.”
Fuqi was Cui’s eldest maid.
Li Zhenbao heard this and ran outside with her skirt in hand.
Su Dot shouted loudly behind her, “Sheriff Master, you haven’t washed up yet.”
Li Zhenbao ran to Ziyu Xuan, where Li Kai was whispering with Cui Wenjun.
Cui Wenjun wiped her tears with a handkerchief, only punishing that bitch to go to the Small Buddha Hall was too cheap for her.
“Guo not only harmed Great Grandma Meng, she also harmed my Yuan Yuan. A person was killed at the Hundred Days Banquet, and all of Yuan Yuan’s blessings have been compromised.”
Li Kai said, “This is father’s intention. It’s not good to spread this scandalous matter and let people look at it as a joke. Father said, wait for some time and then use the reason that she has a bad disease, drive to the manor, demoted to a side consort. In addition, also involved in Zhao Shufei and King Ying, about the royal decency. A gentleman’s revenge, ten years is not too late ……”
Li Zhenbao ran in, “Big brother, who did that thing, is it Guo that old hag?”
It was Cui Wenjun who had someone pass the news to Li Zhenbao early in the morning. There was still a possibility of changing the outcome before Prince Yong announced the disposition.
Li Kai said, “Yes, it was Guo who got a hint from Zhao Shufei to do it ……”
Li Zhenbao was furious when he heard about King Yong’s disposition of Guo.
Holding it up high like this and putting it down gently, she was sorry for Jiang Yishi, and she was also sorry for Xiao Yuanyuan.
She said to Cui Wenjun, “Sister-in-law, don’t be angry, I’ll go to my father’s king and ask him to kick Guo out of the Yong Wang Mansion. I will also go into the palace to recite to Imperial Grandmother to properly clean up Consort Zhao Shufei.”
After saying that, she lifted her skirt again and ran towards the outer courtyard.
