Chapter 5 — The Lady Who Flipped The Flag
Those great families, is it something that a simple person from a rural background can handle? Sure enough, half a month later, at the banquet of Mrs. Thai Tuoc's wife, a big mistake happened. Diep Khinh Khinh wanted to show off the prince's grace and resources, so he brought a half-body tall white jade statue of Guan Yin. Coincidentally, the white jade statue of Guan Yin was carved from premium Diem Thanh jade. This type of jade is extremely rare, only a few great salt merchants in Jiangnan have enough resources to buy it, and even the royal family is rare. The second prince's people, right at the banquet, immediately recognized the origin of this Quan Am statue. When the news spread back to Thien Vien, I was taking a nap with Lang Duong. The dark guard knelt in front of the bed and reported: "Your highness, the second prince's side has tracked down that white jade Avalokitesvara to the Ly family in Giang Nam." "They found a woman who did heavy work in the Ly family's mansion that year. That woman confirmed that the baby Diep Khinh Khinh gave birth to is absolutely not the prince's." I gently patted Lang Duong's back, speaking in a very low voice: "Where is the witness now?" "The second prince's people are arresting him." brought the lady into the capital. The crown prince's side had also heard the sound, he was in such a hurry that he was like an ant crawling on a hot pan." I curled my lips. Fire Marquis is almost enough. 07 Late at night, the door of the heavenly monastery was forcefully pushed open. Tieu Canh Duc didn't even put on his big cloak, his clothes were messy and he rushed in. His face was terribly pale, his eyes filled with blood. "Tri Tuyet, Tri Tuyet!" He grabbed my wrist, the force was very strong. I was pulled by him until it hurt, but I didn't let go. "Your Highness, what's wrong? What happened?" I deliberately looked at him in panic. He stared at me, his chest heaving violently, his voice trembling. "That beast of a second prince wants to slander me on the court! He found a crazy old woman, insisting that Thua Nghiep is not my flesh and blood, wanting to accuse me of mixing up the royal bloodline!" Tieu Canh Duc was not telling the truth. He didn't dare tell me that the baby was really fake. He could only strike preemptively, calling it all a plot to slander the second prince's politics. I looked at his extremely deceitful face, feeling extremely happy inside, but on the outside was full of worry and indignation. "How dare they? Thua Nghiep is clearly the eldest son of His Highness, it's already written in the jade message, how could they let them smear it like that!" Hearing that I was not holding back on his side, the bottom of Tieu Canh Duc's eyes flashed with crazy joy. He squeezed my hand even tighter. "Tri Tuyet, now only you can help me." "The reconnaissance camp of the Tran Vien army is unparalleled in the world. That lady is being escorted by the second prince's people to the capital by water, tomorrow night expected to pass through Tan Chau wharf." Tieu Canh Duc lowered his voice, the cruelty in his voice revealed. "She immediately wrote a letter to the brother, telling the people of the reconnaissance camp to intercept it." Kill that woman at Tan Chau wharf!" "As long as her death is not proven, the second prince's plot to slander will collapse!" Ha ha, tell my Tran Vien army to go kill him and kill people, hide the death penalty and confuse the royal bloodline. Once the matter is exposed, Tran Vien Quan will be the guilty one, and my entire mother clan will have to be buried with him. What a great calculation. "Okay, I'll write the letter now." Without hesitation, I turned around and walked to the desk, holding the pen and dipping ink. Tieu Canh Duc followed closely behind me, staring at every word I wrote down. "Brother Than Khai, the second prince intends to slander the East Palace, witnesses will enter the capital through Tan Chau port. I hope senior brother will quickly dispatch the elite, tomorrow night to stop this person's murder and preserve the crown prince's reputation." I blew the ink dry.
He put it in an envelope in front of him and sealed it with fire wax. "Your Highness, rest assured, my brother will do his job firmly and will definitely make this person never come back." I gave him the letter. Tieu Canh Duc received the letter and breathed a long sigh. His eyes looking at me finally had a trace of true emotion. "Tri Tuyet, you really still have me in your heart." "Once this is over, I will definitely let Khinh Khinh offer tea to apologize to you. The position of crown princess will forever be yours." He held the "life-seeking talisman" seal and hurriedly left. I watched his back disappear into the night, the worried expression on my face immediately cleared. The dark guard appeared from the darkness: "Lady, on the eldest son's side..." "Go and tell my brother." I picked up a wet towel and used my strength to wipe my wrist that was just grabbed by Tieu Canh Duc. "Tell him to send someone to Tan Chau wharf. But not to stop the crime." "But to secretly escort, make sure that the lady doesn't lose a strand of her hair and fall into the second prince's hands. By the way, tie up the confidants nearby. Diep Khinh Khinh, send over there to contribute more witnesses. "Only having a knife in the second prince's hand is not enough. I have to help him sharpen that knife even more.08In the spring of that year, the weather in the capital was unusually cold. The saint's cough suddenly got worse, and he couldn't go to bed for three consecutive days. Outside the Taiji Palace, people of civil and martial arts were confused.
