Seeing Prince Dai looking at her expressionlessly and saying nothing, Grandma Jia hurriedly asked for help and looked at Princess Dai.
Ye Buhui looked around, a little hesitant. Normally, Aunt Jia's husband's family was considered an old relative of the prince, and Aunt Jia had been with her for a long time, so she was considered an old man in the palace, so she should trust her.
But people are close and distant, and compared to Aunt Jia, Ye Buhui certainly trusts her husband more.
She looked at Su Ziji and saw her husband's indifferent expression, so she had an idea. She frowned and asked, "Is the Yin House mentioned in the investigation just now true?"
"Princess, believe me, I didn't! I didn't. I was wronged. I am loyal to you. How could I accept these bribes behind my master's back? You should understand that I am loyal!" Grandma Jia said hurriedly.
The phrase "back to the master" was caught by Bo Yan, and he immediately laughed ferociously: "Back to the master to accept these bribes? Aunt Jia, I only said that I found out that you suddenly had more money and fertile land under your name, but I didn't say
You are a traitor."
This is not self-inflicted.
Aunt Jia choked: "I, I'm just afraid that the prince and princess will misunderstand..."
"If you don't want the prince and princess to misunderstand, let's make it clear now."
Bo Yan stared at her, seeing her panic and incoherence, but he had no sympathy. He wanted to gain the trust of the acting king, and he had to do this job well without making any mistakes. If he found out about Grandma Jia, if he let Grandma Jia
The face of the contemporary royal princess has been overturned, and her face is tarnished.
Then he pressed harder: "You said you didn't betray your master, then tell me, your Jia family had trouble even eating. You yourself only made a living by washing clothes. You have only been in the house for a year. Where did you get a thousand taels of silver and
One hundred acres of fertile land?”
"Is it possible that the prince and princess rewarded you?"
"I..." Grandma Jia was stuck, unable to speak for a moment, her face turned pale, and she managed to say: "It was given to me by a relative!"
"This is one thousand taels of silver and one hundred acres of fertile land."
"Uncle Anxiang's family's farmland is only 27 hectares and 94 acres. Who is such a good relative that he would give you 10 hectares of farmland? Whose name is it? Where does he live? When did he give it to you? Why did he give it to you? Aunt Jia, in
You must speak clearly in front of the prince!" Bo Yan sneered.
How could Aunt Jia have said it? She was supposed to have benefited from betraying Princess Dai, but she never expected that even though she was so well hidden, Bo Yan found out!
This person is too hateful, why do you have to fight with her?
Knowing that she was afraid that today would end, she looked at Bo Yan with resentment in her eyes.
Bo Yan has seen similar looks many times over the years, and he doesn't care at all.
Seeing that Aunt Jia was speechless, he raised his hands to the king and said, "Your Majesty, it is obvious what the facts are. Aunt Jia betrayed her master and did things that were harmful to the palace, so she got the money and land."
As for who he was contacting and who he was benefiting from, Bo Yan vaguely found out a little bit and stopped. It must have been some powerful family in the capital who bribed Grandma Jia.
With the speed of Prince Dai's promotion in the past two years, he is probably a thorn in the eyes of all the kings, and any one of them might attack Prince Dai's palace and bribe one or two people.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Standing on behalf of the king, when he heard this, a sneer appeared on his face. He looked at Aunt Jia with murderous eyes: "The princess treats you well, but you actually betrayed the master? Come on, take it down!"
"Yes!" Two soldiers from the outside came in. No matter whether they were men or women, or whether she was the princess's favorite, they directly held down Grandma Jia. Not only did they hold her down, they also searched her body.
"Your Majesty, we found three hundred taels of silver and this unknown silverware." After a soldier finished searching, he put the things on a plate, raised them above his head, and showed them to Su Ziji.
The wild Taoist came over at this time and first picked up the banknote and glanced at it. This was Hongsheng's largest banknote of 100 taels. Hongsheng Bank was one of the six major banks in the capital. The banknotes issued by Hongsheng Bank had strong credit and were fully accepted.
, couldn't help but laugh: "It's so bold to take action!"
I put down the banknote and picked up the silverware. I was careless at first, but as soon as I looked at it, my color changed: "This is... the punch line!"
"Chong Void Mark?"
Su Ziji was unfamiliar with this name and asked, "What's the use of it?"
He saw that what the barbarians were afraid of was the pattern on the thumb-sized silverware, not the silverware itself.
The wild Taoist's eyes showed a cold light, he bowed and said gloomily: "My lord, these lines are like formations but not formations. They are engraved on silverware and soaked in the blood of mothers and children born in the yin moon and yin day.
In nine days, with some additional materials and refining, you can create a magic weapon."
"The magical weapons made according to this method have a false reputation. This weapon has no other great use. It is only harmful to pregnant women and can hurt babies."
As soon as he said this, Su Ziji was furious.
This anger, even if it was a show, was still 70% real. If he had known that Aunt Jia had done such a betrayal, Su Ziji, who had already been angry for a long time, listened to the explanation of the wild Taoist and still killed her.
A sudden idea!
"Not good for pregnant mother and child? Good!"
Su Ziji lowered his eyes and looked at Aunt Jia who was paralyzed on the ground and couldn't pull herself up, and sneered: "It's only a thousand taels of silver and a hundred acres of land to make you do such a cruel thing... pull it down."
!”
"My lord, have mercy on me!" Aunt Jia was so frightened that she was trembling all over. There was even a smell of urine in the air, which made people nauseous.
Su Ziji shouted coldly: "I have always been generous to my servants. I don't want to be bitten by a poisonous snake today, Jiang Yi!"
"The villain is here!"
Jiang Yi's face turned pale when he witnessed all this. Although this matter had nothing to do with him directly, if nothing else, it was just the steward of the palace and the nuns in the palace who had done such a bold thing. To be serious, he
The person in charge was also guilty of negligence!
This is different from the Imperial City Secretary. The Imperial City Secretary made it clear that he was following the holy will and was only supervising, not trying to harm the king, nor would he allow anyone to harm Longsun.
Jiang Yi, who had been silent all this time when he heard the roar of King Dai, heard it now and hurriedly stood up to respond.
Just listen to King Dai's instructions: "Leave this matter to you and Manager Zhou for review. Who was bribed by her? How did she contact the outside world? You have to find out if there is anyone in the mansion who betrayed her!"
"Also, if you do something like this, the Jia family and her mother's family will be strictly scrutinized to see who is behind it?"
Jiang Yi also knew that the matter was serious and that it was a matter of great importance to the royal heirs, so he immediately responded: "Please rest assured, prince and princess, I will definitely investigate this matter clearly!"
"Okay, please step back and go investigate immediately! If you can't find out this matter, you don't have to see me again!" Su Ziji said coldly to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly excused himself. As soon as he left the door, he heard Nanny Jia wake up and turn around, shouting desperately: "Princess, help me, I'm confused, I'm not a human being, spare me..."
Then he called out: "Manager Jiang, my family and your colleagues."
Jiang Yi sighed: "If I had known this, why would I have bothered my family in the first place? Someone came and pulled this wretched servant down and interrogated her."
Seemingly seeing despair, she suddenly hissed: "I colluded with outsiders, and you are not much better. I saw you secretly meeting people from outside..."
When he said this, his mouth was blocked, and Jiang Yi could only be heard shouting: "You are about to die, do you still dare to bite randomly?"
