Chapter 1237 Secret Report

Nanny Wei covered her chest tightly and curled up motionlessly, for fear that people outside the curtain would see her.

She had come into the room to get a pastry box, but when she heard the conversation in the room, she immediately stopped. She felt dizzy and her face turned pale. Something big had happened in Marquis Xing’s Mansion, and she had to find a way to tell her nephew so that he would not get involved in it. She had heard from her nephew before that he seemed to have a good relationship with Marquis Xing.

The conversation was still going on. The people who spoke were doing chitchats and no longer talked about the affairs of Marquis Xing’s Mansion. Nanny Wei pressed her chest hard to suppress the shock, carefully turned around, and went back inside the curtain. After calming herself down for a long time, she walked out with a relaxed look and light steps.

After talking for a while, the Empress Dowager looked tired.

Chu Liuchen stood up and said, “Take care, Imperial Grandmother. I’m going down the mountain.”

“Okay!” the Empress Dowager said with a kind smile and looked at Shao Wanru with increasing pity. “I feel so sorry for this girl. I thought that Chen was the most pitiful, but I didn’t expect that there would be such a poor child.” “Leave the affairs of Marquis Xing’s Mansion to Chen. If you don’t want to go, don’t go. You won’t be blamed!”

The Empress Dowager was going to support Shao Wanru. No matter what others said, she was going to protect this girl.

With her eyes turning red, Shao Wanru bit her lip and suppressed the bitterness and grievance in her heart. She nodded hard and said, “All right… Imperial Grandmother. Thank you very much!”

Her biological grandmother was so heartless to her, but the Empress Dowager treated her like her own granddaughter. How could Shao Wanru not be sad? But after the sadness, she was happy. Her hand was silently held by Chu Liuchen in the palm of his hand. It was warm and made her cold and sad heart slowly calm down.

In this life, she was not alone. He was by her side.

“Your Highness Empress Dowager, would you like to have a rest first? You need recuperation. The scenery here is good, and you can rest and relax.” Nanny Wei came out with a smile and put the pastries on the table. She looked at the face of Empress Dowager and knew that she was in low spirits.

“Sure!” The Empress Dowager nodded and walked toward the interior with the help of Nanny Wei. She said with a smile, “The scenery here is indeed nice. You can also tour around when you are free. Don’t just get busy serving me all the time.”

“When you have rested, I will go and walk around, Your Highness. I do need to visit the place and burn incense. I’ll ask for Bodhisattva’s blessing that Your Highness will live a long life.” Nanny Wei helped the Empress Dowager into the room and helped her lie on the bed. She let down the gauze curtain on one side and carefully tucked the Empress Dowager in.

“You need to go and enjoy the scenery!” Empress Dowager said with a smile and closed her eyes. She was really tired. She had taken a big walk outside before.

When Nanny Yu heard the Empress Dowager’s even breathing, she came out of the inner room and ordered one little palace maid to go in and serve the Empress Dowager. She instructed another one to stay outside. Then, she quietly went to a Buddha hall.

This Buddha hall belonged to the Huaguang Temple, but it was small and remote. There were some votary lamps, but they were not from big aristocratic families. The place was usually desolate.

When Nanny Wei came over, there was only a monk here to clean up the votary lamps. When he saw her coming in, he bowed to her and then stepped aside.

Nanny Wei stood still and said, “I’m here to see Wei Dahai.” Wei Dahai had told her that if she wanted to see him, she could come here and tell the monks in the Buddha hall.

Nanny Wei didn’t think about the reason behind the serious matter now. There were some things that she didn’t dare to think about. Wei Dahai was her only relative, so she couldn’t watch him get into trouble and do nothing.

The monk stepped aside, put his palms together devoutly, and said, “Lord Wei happens to be in the temple today. Please wait for a moment, Nanny.”

It was really a coincidence that he was on the mountain. Nanny Wei breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Seeing the monk leave, she breathed a sigh of relief. She looked around and waited inside the hall.

Not long after, she saw a figure at the door of the Buddha hall. She turned around and saw Wei Dahai rushing over.

After coming in, Wei Dahai wiped his sweat and asked, “Aunt, what happened?” Something serious must have happened since Nanny Wei asked him to come here in such a hurry.

Nanny Wei pulled Wei Dahai to stand behind the hanging curtain and asked in a low voice, “Do you know Marquis Xing?”

Wei Dahai didn’t understand what Nanny Wei meant at the moment, so he nodded and asked, “I know Shao Jing, Marquis Xing. What happened?”

“Do you have a good relationship with him? If so, lose your contact with him…” Nanny Wei paused and said, “If you have any letters from him, destroy them as soon as possible. He is going to get into trouble!”

Wei Dahai was confused. He really didn’t understand why Nanny Wei suddenly told him this. The matter about Marquis Xing’s Mansion had not been spread out yet. Madam Wen, who was present at that time, had only returned to the mansion and was too ashamed to tell others about it.

Marquis Xing’s Mansion had long been in chaos. If Zhao Xiran had informed any outsiders, she would only have informed her father. Moreover, no one thought that this matter was so serious.

Wei Dahai really didn’t understand what Nanny Wei meant. After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively, “What trouble would he get into? Is it about that mistress?” It was spread among the outsiders, so he knew something about it.

“You really know about his mistress?” Nanny Wei was shocked and grabbed the hand of Wei Dahai. “Does she have anything to do with you? This woman used to be the servant girl of Infanta Qinghua, and there must be more than that!”

Nanny Wei had been living in the Palace for so many years, so she knew that in any case, something wrong must have happened. Moreover, Infanta Qinghua was dead. If Princess Chen hadn’t returned in time, the first branch of Marquis Xing’s Mansion would have been eliminated, and the second branch would have gotten all the benefits. There must be something wrong with Shao Jing, Marquis Xing.

Seeing Nanny Wei in such a panic, Wei Dahai asked in shock, “Isn’t she the daughter of the former imperial censor?”

This matter really had nothing to do with him, and he didn’t pay much attention to it previously.

“No, that’s not true. She’s not the daughter of the imperial censor. She merely used to be a servant girl of Infanta Qinghua. It seems that the death of the former Heir of Duke Xing and Infanta Qinghua has something to do with Marquis Xing. You can’t get implicated. Marquis Xing’s Mansion is going down!” Nanny Wei warned Wei Dahai worriedly.

Wei Dahai frowned. This was not a trivial matter. He had to go down the mountain to make arrangements. The drastic changes in Marquis Xing’s Mansion were not trivial. If Shao Jing got into trouble, it would involve a lot of people.

“I see. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go down the mountain.” Wei Dahai was about to leave.

Nanny Wei grabbed him and was still worried. “Dahai, tell me, does it have anything to do with you? Prince Chen intervened in it in person!”

If nothing unexpected happened, Shao Jing was doomed.

Wei Dahai became annoyed and said unhappily, “Aunt, don’t worry. I have nothing to do with them. I merely have a nodding acquaintance with Marquis Xing, and we don’t have a particularly good relationship. But this matter is serious. I have to go down the mountain to get something done.”

“Okay then. Remember not to get involved in it. If you get involved, and if Prince Chen discovers it, even I won’t be able to save you!”

Nanny Wei reminded him again.

Wei Dahai shook off Nanny Wei’s hand and said, “Aunt, don’t worry. I won’t mess with Prince Chen.” After that, he ignored her and strode out of the hall.

It was indeed a coincidence that he went up the mountain today. Originally, he wanted to see Nanny Wei and inquire about something from her. Unexpectedly, he got such shocking news. How could he remain calm? He had to go back and discuss it with his wife. He kept feeling that although this matter had little to do with him, he was very likely to get implicated.

When Wei Dahai hurried down the mountain, the Ministry of Justice had already called Shao Jing over.

E’niang had been taken away by the guards of Prince Chen’s Mansion, and Shao Jing had been prepared. Knowing that this matter could not be settled peacefully, he thought about it carefully. Except for the fact that E’niang used to be the servant girl of Infanta Qinghua, she didn’t do anything wrong. As for her alleged identity as the daughter of the imperial censor, it was Rui’an Great Elder Princess who released that saying, not him, so it was not his fault.

Thinking of this, Shao Jing calmed down and felt that the Ministry of Justice would let him go after he made a proper statement.

Shao Jing could do nothing about the fact that E’niang couldn’t marry into Marquis Xing’s Mansion, and he could only think of another way. Although E’niang couldn’t be his madam, Ru’er would still be his daughter. He could have her enter the mansion with the identity of his daughter with a mistress. If that didn’t work out, he could make her his daughter with Madam Jiang. In any case, she would be his legitimate daughter. Thinking of this, Shao Jing didn’t think this matter was troublesome.

He secretly went to a remote courtyard in Marquis Xing’s Mansion. This is the place where Shao Yanru lived as his mistress’s daughter after she returned. He told Shao Yanru what had happened and told her to know what was going on. Then, he went back to the study to wait. Soon, the officials of the Ministry of Justice arrived. Shao Jing didn’t say much and went with them calmly.

It was similar to the last time. He just needed to go there once at most. He thought that without any evidence, what Shao Wanru said would be false. Although she was Princess Chen, she couldn’t deal with him as she pleased. Moreover, he had written a letter to Prince Cheng and asked him to try to save him. Even if there were some accidents, it would not be a big deal.

E’niang was not an ordinary servant girl. She knew martial arts and was sent to Infanta Qinghua by him on purpose. She was loyal to him. Even if she ruined his plan, she would only have a false reputation and would not die. Of course, she would not expose him. As for what Shao Wanru had said before, he thought that no one would believe it.

Shao Jing had thought through all the possibilities and believed that he would not be in trouble this time. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door of the Ministry of Justice, he was held down and his hands and feet were immediately bound with chains.

“I’m Marquis Xing. How dare you bind me!” Shao Jing was furious. After being stunned for a moment, he struggled desperately, his face turning red and his veins bulging.
