Chapter 169 Cake (4)
"Lin understands what Mr. Du wants to do, but there are some things that are not allowed by law," Lin Fei said, raising his eyes to look at Mr. Du in front of him, "What's more, this matter hurts innocent people. "
This innocent nature refers to...
Master Du lowered his eyes, sighed quietly, and said: "The first person to discover Mrs. Jin's identity was Du."
In this regard, Lin Fei's face in front of him didn't look strange at all. He glanced at Mr. Du in front of him, nodded, and said: "I asked Zhao You to go to the Chang'an Mansion and found that the predecessor of the house of Chief Jin's family The head of the household is Mr. Du, who sold it to Mr. Jin at a price much lower than that of an ordinary house."
Therefore, Mr. Du arranged for Principal Jin's family to be placed in this alley, and to be neighbors with Princess Chao'an.
"Although Princess Chao'an is a fake princess, she has been a princess for so many years and nothing has happened. She probably feels that the real princess is long gone and no one in this world can shake her identity. She has never thought about it at all. Seeing Chao An Princess An and Mrs. Jin had met so many times, but Princess Chao An, the fake princess, didn't even bother to doubt her, so Mr. Du had no choice but to borrow the help of Prince Consort Fu, who had been jealous of the fake princess for a long time," Lin Fei said, "Consort Fu has already said that he first began to suspect Mrs. Jin's identity because Mr. Du, you 'casually' said that they have some similarities."
"Princess Chao'an wears heavy makeup every day and never shows her bare face to outsiders. It's not surprising that Prince Consort Fu has seen Princess Chao'an's bare face. After all, they are a couple. Mr. Du, how did you see Princess Chao'an's bare face?" When Lin Fei said this, he shook his head slightly, "So Mr. Du must first know Mrs. Jin's true identity before he can deliberately use words to lead Fu Ma's suspicion."
"Because of Dansheng's words, I was convinced that Princess Chao'an was a fake. So I found the palace maid. By coincidence, the palace maid was still alive at that time and knew where the real princess was taken. I traced all the way and found out that Jin The boss arranged all this." Mr. Du said, "It's just that Prince Consort Fu is really cowardly. He only dares to doubt, but doesn't even have the courage to expose. Not only that, he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and even wants to make Mrs. Jin want to do it. Face that fake princess directly."
It is true that Mrs. Jin is a real princess, but before she gets her identity back, what can a lady in charge do against such a golden princess?
This move of Prince Consort Fu can be said to have single-handedly pushed Mrs. Jin into the pit of fire. Princess Chao'an only allowed the state officials to set fires and not allow the people to light lamps. Naturally, she would not allow Prince Consort Fu, who relied on himself to make ends meet, to flirt with others, so she became jealous of Mrs. Jin.
Princess Chao'an had already seen clearly what kind of person Master Jin was. When she learned that Master Jin was not at home, Princess Chao'an wanted to teach Mrs. Jin a lesson and make it difficult for her to explain herself, so she had Prince Yu. It comes out early in the morning.
The result made Princess Chao'an very satisfied. It was rumored that the three of them turned into tigers. Mrs. Jin was pushed out and could not be removed completely.
"Although Mr. Du did not directly intervene in all this, he indirectly contributed to all of this happening, and..." Lin Fei raised his eyes and looked at Mr. Du in front of him, "He was happy to see the results and added fuel to the flames."
If not, Mr. Du would not have named Mrs. Jin when he came to inquire that day.
When Mr. Du heard this, he lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time. Then he smiled bitterly and said, "Lin Shaoqing is right!"
He watched everything happen, and watched Mrs. Jin, who was born in a wealthy family but lived miserably among the people, being innocently affected. Not only that, he also pushed the most critical move.
"I know the temperament of Master Jin and his family best. Once this happens, Master Jin will definitely abandon Mrs. Jin," Mr. Du said, "I am also happy to see it happen, and even the woman complained At that time, I guided the mother-in-law."
"Although the original intention of my guidance was to let the old woman persuade Principal Jin to make peace with Mrs. Jin," Mr. Du said, "the person named Jin seems to be 'affectionate', but in fact he is 'emotionless', selfish and evil. A good match. I originally thought about this matter, and Mrs. Jin regained her status as a golden branch and jade leaf, and could find a good match. But I didn't expect..."
Mr. Du claimed to know enough about the master and servant of this family, but he still underestimated the extent of his cruelty.
After listening to his guidance, the old lady actually forced Mrs. Jin to death. The reason was that the commotion was so big. Mr. Jin and Mrs. Jin reconciled, fearing that Mr. Jin would be known as "unresponsible". In the opinion of the mother-in-law, it would be best for Mrs. Jin to "died to clarify her ambitions".
"Afterwards, the woman imitated Mrs. Jin's handwriting and wrote a suicide note for me to read. I put the suicide note away and kept it in the study. You can take the suicide note and arrest the woman." Mr. Du said. At this point, he gave a bitter smile and said, "I cannot absolve myself of the blame for Mrs. Jin's death."
The reason why he contributed to everything was to lead Dali Temple to track down Princess Chaoan, King Yu and Mrs. Jin. Also, the elixir was stolen, and the Goguryeo people had no time to take care of themselves.
He wants chaos, the more chaotic the better, the more chaotic it is, the easier it is for him to act.
"I have been waiting for five years," Mr. Du said, and gave a wry smile. He sat upright with a stooped figure and a look of fatigue in his eyes. "I am getting old, and I don't dare to bet on whether I can still survive." Just wait another five years!”
After finally waiting for this opportunity, he naturally wanted to catch all these people.
"The Moro sect has already infiltrated into the Goguryeo court. The death of the Goguryeo envoy confirmed this to me." When Mr. Du said this, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, "According to me As far as we know, the envoy was one of the Moro cultists who helped the fake princess to replace her. The cook who was hacked to death after being implicated in Dali Temple must be related to King Yu, and King Yu is a Moro cultivator. So. , why do their own people kill their own people?”
The situation of a small foreign sect is complicated and troublesome.
"Because it's not just Mr. Du who has a headache for the Moro Cult, but also their own people in Goguryeo." When Lin Fei said this, his eyes flashed and he said, "The people in Goguryeo are also involved in this matter."
…
…
The collapse of power only took a few days. In the past few days, watching the people related to Prince Yu and Princess Chao'an being escorted to Dali Temple, Wen Mingtang, a public kitchen cook, learned a lot about the internal affairs. The "old man" in the yamen.
Two days ago, Ji Caimai pointed at the palace servant with silver hair, white face and red lips, who looked inexplicably strange and told Wen Mingtang: "That is Eunuch Mu from the Internal Affairs Yamen."
Of course, with so many palace people coming and going, Ji Caimai did not name this Eunuch Mu randomly. Of course, there was a reason for specifically naming this Eunuch Mu.
"The thing you were targeted for earlier was his order." Ji Caimai said.
