Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 2626 581. Eight Precious Jade Foods (The princes of Shangguan raised an army to investigate the crime of the Marquis of Shangguan)

After rounds of investigations, the Shangguan princes finally found out the inner ghost around them.

As expected, this girl was one of his concubines. He never thought that the person next to him was a spy sent by his opponent. Such a result was really disappointing.

Speaking of which, this woman is still his favorite woman. Until all the evidence points to this woman, the Shangguan princes are still unwilling to believe that she is a spy...

And when she did not regret her crimes, the Shangguan princes were heartbroken. The person they cared about the most turned out to be the villain who harmed them. How could she bear such a result?
  The princes of Shangguan ordered people to torture and extort confessions in order to find out who was behind it, but the woman was so stubborn that she bit her tongue and committed suicide, refusing to confess her master.

Seeing the concubine lying in a pool of blood, the Shangguan princes had mixed feelings in their hearts. This time he was sad, and even more lamented about human nature.

The woman he protected with all his heart became a sharp blade stabbing his chest in the opposite direction...

Who else can I trust in the future?
  That day, the Shangguan princes lost their minds for the first time and rushed into the Marquis's mansion. Even though he didn't have the key evidence in his hands, he still wanted to confront his brother.

"Brother, what's going on? You seem to be in a bad mood today?"

At this moment, Marquis Shangguan was sitting at his desk copying landscape paintings, but he only saw the Shangguan princes rushing in angrily. Several of his servants couldn't stop him, so they knew the other party's intention.

Shangguan Marquis waved his hand and sent him away to find his servants. He pretended to be polite and asked the Shangguan princes what they wanted.

The Shangguan princes had a sullen face and threw the jade token in his concubine's hand in front of his brother.

"Explain to me, what's going on with this jade sign?"

Shangguan Marquis calmly picked up the jade plaque on his desk. After looking at it carefully, he couldn't help frowning and said: "Brother, where did you find the jade plaque? The Marquis of Blue Bird has already lost some of it. Time, how did eldest brother get the jade medal?"

Seeing this form, the Shangguan princes knew in their hearts that this boy was pretending to be confused with him, and he would definitely not admit it.

At this point, the Shangguan princes snorted coldly and said: "Second brother, noble people forget things a lot. Did the second brother lose this jade medal?"

Shangguan Marquis couldn't help but frowned in aggrieved manner, pretending to be questioning, and asked the other party: "What? Brother, are you suspicious of the Marquis? What on earth happened here? Brother, you won't go to investigate because the Marquis lost a piece of jade, right? You must? If there is something going on, eldest brother might as well tell it directly! Whatever the second brother knows, he will tell the truth to eldest brother."

"Hehehe~ That's all. I see, second brother, that you have been hanging out with that incompetent actor from the Situ family for a long time. Your acting skills have become more and more exquisite, and your face has become thicker, right?"

"I...what's wrong with eldest brother? It's really unreasonable for you to blame the Marquis! You didn't explain it clearly to me. Do you want the Marquis to guess what your eldest brother is thinking? The Marquis is very wronged. It's really unfair. I know where I offended my eldest brother..."

Seeing that the Shangguan prince was not forgiving at all, the Shangguan Marquis became more and more able to pretend to be aggrieved.

"This jade token belongs to a woman named Ruoyun, and this Ruoyun has been with me for three years. A few days ago, I was called by my father for questioning, saying that someone reported that I was in the palace. Practicing witchcraft, I'm just curious, why do outsiders know what I do at home?"

"So, brother, is witchcraft really practiced in your house?"

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Marquis suddenly interrupted, and this question shocked the Shangguan princes. "How is it possible! The people in my house are all well-behaved people, how can it be possible for them to practice witchcraft?"

"Then... what is brother suspecting? Is he suspecting that the Marquis has planted an informant in your house, and this Ruoyun is the Marquis's man?"

As soon as these words came out, Shangguan Marquis fell silent. He never thought that Shangguan Marquis would ask him such a straightforward question.

"What? Isn't it because Big Brother is so sure that he came to the Marquis to question him?"

Seeing that the Shangguan princes remained silent, the Shangguan Marquis took the initiative to speak and once again confirmed the other party's thoughts.

"Now that we've talked about this, I can't help but tell others secretly. Is this Ruoyun one of yours?"

"I said no, brother, do you believe it?"

"How can I believe it? Is this evidence right here? Second brother! You are really calculating! Send a beauty I like by my side, and her every move will be in the way I like. Such a precise calculation , intentional training, if it weren’t for the people around me, who would be able to do it so accurately! Isn’t it too bad of you to do this!”

For the first time in his life, Lord Shangguan lost his mind like this. He knew clearly that there was no substantial evidence for what he said, but he couldn't control his emotions at all. He must ask Shangguan Lord for clarification.

"Brother! Why did you misunderstand me like this? Just because of this jade token? I'm really aggrieved. I've already said that I lost this jade token a long time ago. How did it appear here? I don’t know about your concubine... Furthermore, brother, think about it carefully. If I really want to harm you, why should I let the person next to you have this kind of thing on me? Where is the jade card that people are suspicious of? Brother, you are so smart and you still don’t understand this person’s intentions?”

"What is this person's intention? Haha~ What do you think?"

"I must be trying to sow discord between you and my brother! Besides, the people who know you are not only me, Marquis Shangguan, but also your close associates, our brothers and sisters, and even... even your father. Both the king and the queen mother know you very well... But why does the eldest brother doubt me alone? Firstly, it is because of this jade token; here, it is also the most important... The eldest brother sincerely hopes that this is done by me, Marquis Shangguan. Isn’t it?”

As soon as these words came out, the Shangguan princes were stunned. He calmed down and flinched a little: "This... is not what he said... What does it mean... what I want you to do? What if I want you to do it?" If that were the case, I wouldn’t be so indignant in attacking you..."

Marquis Shangguan sighed, he stood up slowly, and said: "Brother, I, Marquis Shangguan, have probably become your political enemy in your mind, right? With all the bad things that happen around you, your first impression will probably be of me, Shangguan." The Marquis, they all think this was done by me, the Marquis Shangguan..."

At this point, the Shangguan princes felt a little guilty and began to speak hesitantly, "I..."

"Now that I still have this jade plaque as proof...brother, you are even more convinced that this is the handiwork of my Shangguan Marquis, right?"

"This... is not entirely true... I just want to know the truth..."

"The truth of the matter is... I didn't do this at all! No matter how much I explain, my eldest brother won't believe it! Unless there is new evidence to prove that I, the Marquis Shangguan, am innocent?"

"I……"
