Sword of the Red Chamber from Heaven

"Master Hou."

Seeing Jia Hong again, Lu Yi was still a little excited. After all, what happened last night was too horrifying, and even now she had not come to her senses.

Jia Hong nodded slightly.

"Things are going well."

Xichun tugged at Jia Hong's clothes and reluctantly poked half of her head out from behind him. She finally got the chance to go out and play, but she didn't expect that Jia Hong would bring her back early in the morning.

Of course, Jia Hong also told her the reason. The lame Taoist priest was very powerful. If he went to Xuanzhen Temple again, Xichun's luck might lose its effect. So after thinking it over, Jia Hong returned here.

"It's just that the one in the palace doesn't seem to doubt the Fifth Prince."

Lu Yi sighed. Even though there was enough evidence and witnesses, Emperor Ming Kang still didn't do anything to the Fifth Prince. This result still made Lu Yi feel a little indignant.

"It doesn't matter!"

Jia Hong was silent for a moment and waved his hand. This situation was very normal. If Emperor Ming Kang really believed it, then something strange would happen. So at the beginning he did not expect Emperor Ming Kang to believe this matter. He simply wanted to disgust the ignorant prince.

"Should we teach him a lesson?"

Lu Yi wasn't sure what Jia Hong was thinking, so she asked again.

Jia Hong thought about it, and seemed to feel that there was no need for this, so he waved his hand again.

Although the situation in the capital was chaotic and everything seemed out of control, after his injuries had recovered to the point where things were no longer as those people had expected.

"Everything remains the same. Don't worry about the infighting among them. If I'm not mistaken, they will make new moves soon. After all, at this time, the defense of the capital is at its weakest. Such a godsend opportunity is not easy to come by."

Lu Yi frowned. It was not difficult to tell from Jia Hong's words that the princes seemed to be unable to wait any longer.

Since Jia Hong had given the order, it also meant that he had a plan in mind, so there was no need for her to continue to worry about these things, so she let this topic go for the time being.

Then she seemed to remember something, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "There is one more thing. Miss Cailuan wants to see the Marquis."

Jia Qi shook his head.

"Did Miaoyu tell her?"

Lu Yi just shook her head. She didn't know who told Cai Luan about this matter. Maybe it was Miaoyu, or maybe not. But she didn't dare to underestimate Miss Miaoyu at all. She thought it was better not to speculate about things like talking about people behind their backs, especially this person.

"I don't know, and Miss Cailuan didn't tell me either." Jia Hong was a little surprised at Lu Yi's reaction. Then he glanced at the girl, and seeing that she didn't mean to keep silent, he retracted his gaze. What smart people hate most is to see others being clever. He was quite satisfied with the other party's answer of saying "if you know, you know, and if you don't know, you say you don't know".

"That's what I expected. No one here has contact with her except Miaoyu, but it's nothing serious."

Speaking of this, Jia Hong looked out the window. He hadn't seen that girl for a while. He felt a little guilty about leaving her and Miaoyu to look after such a huge mansion.

If it weren't for him, maybe she would still be roaming the world freely!

Some people like wealth and glory and seek stability, some people like the pleasure of revenge and pursue freedom.

Different people have different pursuits, so he doesn't think it's good for Cailuan to be a housekeeper. Just like in the Jia Mansion, if Wang Xifeng were to be the housekeeper, she would definitely be willing. She likes power and money. Even if they just pass through her hands, they are more delicious to her than delicacies from land and sea. But if Daiyu is allowed to be the housekeeper, although he believes that this smart girl can manage it well, he knows that talking to her about love and romance and ancient people will make her happier. This is the difference between everyone.

"Take some time to go back and talk to her. Just tell her that it was me who said that. I will be back soon. Before that, don't come here to avoid alerting the enemy. Since I'm back, don't let her worry too much about the affairs in the Marquis' Mansion. I will take care of it if there is any movement. Thank you for your hard work in the past six months."

Lu Yi sighed softly in her heart. Although she had guessed that this would be the result, she still sighed for the girl who was the housekeeper in public.

Unlike Miaoyu, Cailuan's identity is very special. Miaoyu came to the Jia Mansion because she was called by the master and mistress of the Jia Mansion to help with the medical treatment. The reason was legitimate and sufficient, and the Marquis' Mansion was not involved, so the whole thing looked particularly real and generally did not attract other people's attention.

But Cailuan was different. The Jia family seemed reluctant to receive this girl. First, Cailuan acted too strong outside and her identity was a bit awkward. If she was the wife of the Marquis's mansion, she was not married in a formal way. But if she was not married in a formal way, that was not right. Jia Hong trusted her very much and she was in charge of everything in the backyard. So how should the Jia family receive her after she came here? For Lady Jia and Mrs. Wang, this was a headache.

Furthermore, Cailuan had very few dealings with the Jia family, and it would be hard to justify it without a legitimate reason. Doing so would inevitably attract attention from the outside world. If Jia Hong's plan was ruined because of such a small matter, it would be not worth it.

"I heard from the spies in the palace that there have been rumors circulating in the palace recently."

Lu Yi was even more hesitant this time. She didn't know whether she should tell this matter or not, because she had secretly heard some news that Jia Hong seemed to have an unusual relationship with the imperial concubine in the palace, which had gone beyond that of a brother and sister relationship, and seemed to be related to the most beautiful queen in the harem. And this matter was about them, so she was worried that Jia Hong would not be able to help but take action.

"Oh?"

Obviously, Jia Hong didn't know about this, so when Lu Yi brought it up, he was a little confused. Logically speaking, the things that happened in the capital should not affect the palace. After all, that was the lair of Emperor Ming Kang. Even if the rebels really broke in, that place would be the last to fall.

Now the capital city has not been destroyed, let alone there.

"What did it say?"

Jia Hong asked.

"I don't know who spread the news that the Imperial Concubine had an affair with a guard. The Empress was furious and beat several people who talked too much to death. However, the momentum has not been suppressed. It is still circulating in the palace. The Imperial Concubine does not seem to be in good condition."
