Shu Yu was speechless. She felt even more wronged than Dou Er.
Nieng Yunzheng saw that she was just lowering her head and did not speak. Although the candles were lit in the hall, her vision was dim and he could not see her expression clearly, but he knew that she was not feeling good. Meng Yunzheng could not help but clench his fists. “You don’t have to worry. Although it’s exile, I’ll make arrangements for you along the way. I won’t let you suffer. When you go to the exile area, you’ll be back in three months at most.”
Shu Yu raised her head in surprise. He was thinking the same thing as her?
Three months was indeed a very short period.
Meng Yunzheng smiled and said, “There are some things that I shouldn’t tell you. But now that you’re involved, I’ll explain it to you clearly.”
“What is it?”
“Right now, there are two factions in the Imperial Court that are competing fiercely. One faction is the Second Prince’s people, and the other faction is the Third Prince’s people. The Shu family was the Third Prince’s people, so the one who targeted him was naturally the Second Prince. Of course, these were all on the surface. There was still a force lurking in the dark.”
Shu Yu knew that this force was the Fifth Prince.
The male protagonist in the book was the Fifth Prince’s man. Not only he, but also the vice minister of the central judicial office seemed to stand on no one’s side and only listened to the Emperor’s orders. In truth, he was also one of the Fifth Prince’s men. On the surface, he was leading the Shu family’s case because the Second Prince had extended his hand to the Shu family in an attempt to cut off the Third Prince’s power in the Dongan Province.
However, the third-party benefited from the fight between the snipe and the clam. The one who truly led all of this was the Fifth Prince.
Since the vice minister of the central judicial office was the Fifth Prince’s man, the one who had a close relationship with him, Xiang Weinan, was naturally the same.
so…
Shu Yu looked at Meng Yunzheng in front of her. “Are you all the people of this prince who is hiding in the dark? You too?”
Meng Yunzheng was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, “No, we should be considered partners. We just have a common enemy. After we take down this person, I will have nothing to do with him. Therefore, I don’t participate in many things.”
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to retreat unscathed.
He didn’t need to care about the Shu family’s matters. His current mission was only to find the Master of Dongqing Temple.
It was only because of Shu Yu that she was so attentive.
Nieng Yunzheng didn’t tell Shu Yu who the prince was, but he did reveal a lot of information.
Meng Yunzheng continued to analyze with her. “Even if you’re not the daughter of the Shu family, just in case, the Second Prince’s men will look for you. Even if Lord Jing wants to help you, he can’t do much. Otherwise, his identity will be exposed and he won’t be able to protect himself.”
Shu Yu nodded. “Will they find this place?”
“l know what you’re worried about. You’re afraid of implicating the Lu family. But don’t worry, Jiangyuan County is now within Xiang Weinan’s sphere of influence. He will try his best to conceal your whereabouts and “find” you a month later.’
There was only one month left.
It seemed that she did not have much time left.
Zhao Xi consoled her, “Actually, a month is already quite long. That Aunt Xue of yours really can’t wait to find you and kill you. She’s already said everything that she shouldn’t have said. When she bought you, she didn’t know your grandmother’s identity, but she did know where to trade. Even if you’re not in Jiangyuan County, it’s not far from here. The person who’s looking for you will come in this direction.’
Therefore, a month was the longest time that Xiang Weinan and the others could buy..
