Chapter 215 At least with Fuso
Chapter 215 At least with Fuso
Jing Muyang had a lot of thoughts.
Bai Lixiang said that he would investigate the sneak attack on Tianshan, would give him a chance, and let Chu Jian make her own choice. The obvious implication was that he would not bully her, and Fuso was there too, so he believed that Fuso could take good care of Chu Jian and respect her.
If there is really no other way, at least we can ask Fuso...
Although Jing Muyang was heartbroken, his life was more important. As long as Chu Jian was alive, he could accept anything.
Right now, I have to get better quickly, catch Jing Muhao, and get justice, and then go and take her back.
Besides, Qingshan and Qingmu chased Bai Lishang all the way but never caught up with him. There was no one in the palace or in Baihua Tower. They chased him out of the city gate but still couldn't see any trace of him.
Is Bai Lishang so quick in action?
After the two met, they decided to go back to the palace to ask Jing Muyang whether they should chase to Tianshan.
"No need, let him go. I will go to Tianshan to pick her up myself as soon as possible." Jing Muyang sat in the yard holding the sleeping Siming, reluctant to put him down.
He was seriously injured and could not travel for the time being. For the sake of their first meeting, he had to be patient. He had already sent Qingye to Tianshan. With her speed, even if she couldn't catch up with him, she could reach the holy land of Tianshan within ten days.
"Are there any clues over at Qingya?"
"Not yet. The Crown Prince has sent people to search the entire capital, but has not found anything unusual about the Fifth Prince. Qingya has also sent messages to all the branches. Such a big man would not disappear out of thin air. There will always be traces and clues. There should be news soon."
"Okay. What's the emperor's attitude?"
"The emperor has secretly sent people to investigate." Qingshan paused and said, "The emperor's people are fighting with Qingya's people."
This is the news Qingshan just received.
"In the human tooth market, the boss Zhao who sold ten girls to the fifth prince at one time the year before yesterday left the city overnight. He was found dead in his own house yesterday. The coroner's autopsy showed that the time of death should be the evening of the day before yesterday."
"So the one who left the city was not him." Jing Muyang thought.
Boss Zhao, the human trafficker, knew that all those messy women in Jing Muhao's house were bought from him.
This was discovered when we were investigating human traffickers the year before last. Although Boss Zhao was very close to child traffickers, the people under his control were all forced to become slaves voluntarily due to financial difficulties, and their whereabouts were not bad.
I checked again when I went to see Chu Jian last year, but since the human tooth market was being rectified, everyone was keeping a low profile and no abnormalities were found.
In fact, because of the continuous suppression of Jing Muhao's backyard by the eldest princess and the emperor, Boss Zhao and Jing Muhao almost stopped having any contact.
However, his sudden and mysterious death caused the emperor to secretly send people to investigate. Could it be that Boss Zhao’s death was related to Jing Muhao?
"Your Majesty, the missing women in the backyard of the Fifth Prince's Mansion were also found by Boss Zhao. It has been two days, and there is still no news. I think they may have gone with the Fifth Prince."
"Didn't the people from the Five Princes' Palace confess anything?"
"No, the Fifth Princess and Ming Fei have been making a fuss. They may really know nothing. The girls without official status in the backyard of the Fifth Prince's Mansion are all managed by a girl named Wang Chai. These girls are the ones who disappeared."
"Miss Wang Chai?"
"Miss Wang Chai was brought back from Mingyue Tower by the Fifth Prince several years ago. Her mother was the top prostitute in Mingyue Tower back then. I don't know who she had a child with.
In the Wild Boar King incident, Qingya traced back to Mingyue Tower where more than a dozen people were killed. Afterwards, Mingyue Tower was repeatedly interrogated by the underworld and soon closed down. The girls inside were sold at low prices to other towers.
Among them, Miss Wang Chai's mother was unwilling to leave for some unknown reason, and committed suicide under pressure, leaving behind her ten-year-old daughter, who was taken back to the palace by the fifth prince who was passing by at the time. She is now eighteen years old. "
Hearing this, Jing Muyang did have some impression. He was hastily sent to the military camp that year, and he did not have time to inquire about and deal with many things in the capital.
Qingya's investigation into the Wild Boar King incident led him to Mingyue Tower. An important person who was in contact with someone in the capital was hiding in Mingyue Tower. However, in that fight, they resisted desperately and fought desperately with Qingya, and finally all died tragically.
Mingyue Tower was also burned down by a fire not long afterwards. It was said that there were girls inside who had already been sold but had not yet had the chance to leave.
This incident troubled Jing Muyang for a long time. He did not want to kill innocent people, and he did not know who set the fire. Anyway, he blamed Luoshuang Pavilion at that time.
At that time, Jing Muyang was weak and could not be exposed, so Qingya had to take the blame.
"Your Highness, Qingya has already sent people to keep a close eye on the emperor's people. If there is any news from the emperor, we will also know it."
"Okay." Jing Muyang knew that his father would not believe everything that Chu Jian said, and he would definitely want to hear Jing Muhao's explanation in person.
"Has the news spread out?"
"Yes, the Yonghe Palace has been besieged by the concubines again, and the Emperor did not say anything to stop it. The Imperial Concubine is probably not having a good time, but the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince's concubines have already taken the Imperial Concubine to the Eastern Palace. Currently, no one knows that the Imperial Concubine is not in the Yonghe Palace.
There was also a message from the Emperor of Nanbang in the imperial palace, saying that he would lead troops to Tianshan to bring back the Prince of Fuso.
And Queen Toya is clamoring to return to the palace..."
Jing Muyang pinched and rubbed his solar plexus again and again. These were the troubles that Bai Lichang had mentioned that needed to be dealt with.
"Get ready and enter the palace!"
"Your Highness..." Qingshan wanted to stop him. It would be too risky for his prince to enter the palace with his current physique.
"Go ahead. We can't let mother hide in the East Palace. Besides, there are some things that cannot be touched. We must make it clear to father."
Jing Muyang patted the armrest and signaled Qingshan to quickly make arrangements.
*
It was getting dark, and the afterglow of spring was lazy and without staying power.
Jing Muyang held Siming in his arms and was carried into the palace.
The emperor was in the imperial study. He had not attended court for the past two days and was very worried.
It's not impossible that Jing Muhao, that brat, could have done the accusations made by Chu Jian, but it seems a little hard to believe that he framed the prince, leaked military intelligence, and colluded with foreign nations.
After all, Jing Muhao has always been a good-for-nothing guy who hangs around women all the time. How could he possibly frame these things?
Especially since he is still following behind the prince, and he gets scared when he hears Xiaojiu's voice. With such courage, how can he dare to do so many small actions behind him?
Concubine Ming has been making a big fuss in the palace these past two days, and the Fifth Princess has also been making a fuss in the palace, both demanding that he give them justice.
The emperor was also rubbing his solar plexus. How did he give it?
This is a huge scandal in the royal family. If possible, he would like to shut Chu Jian's mouth, but how to explain it to Jing Muyang?
Not to mention that the prince will not let Jing Muhao go and will definitely investigate further.
