Chapter 778: One of Them

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Unable to enter the Yaoguang Hall, Xuanyuan Ziming decided to take a detour to save the country and report Shen Yijia’s situation to Song Jingchen.

“Mother, what does this mean?”

In the study, Song Jingchen looked at the three copper coins on the table and asked.

Ji Luo lowered her eyes and picked up the copper coins one by one. “It’s a divination of great misfortune. The Spring Tree is defeated, and life or death is uncertain. ”

“Is there still a chance of survival?” Song Jingchen asked uncertainly.

Even though he had read a lot of books, he knew nothing about divination. He could only understand it literally.

To be precise, he was still alive and could fall at any moment. However, Ji Luo didn’t say anything. He nodded and said, “At least it means that he’s still alive.”

“What?! My imperial uncle is still alive?”

Bang! The study door opened and Xuanyuan Ziming looked at the three people inside excitedly.

Song Jingchen glanced coldly at Thirty Thousand, who ran in at a loss.

Thirty Thousand’s face turned pale and he knelt on one knee. “I failed in my duty. Master, please punish me.”

“Hey, don’t blame him. I saw that there was no one in the courtyard, so I came over myself. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, so I pushed the door open and accidentally heard something.”

There was really only the word “still alive”.

“Where did you go just now?” Xuanyuan Ziming asked Thirty Thousand.

“I’ll find an opportunity to explain this for you. You can’t blame me if you get punished in the future.” he thought.

Thirty Thousand glanced at Song Jingchen and lowered his head in silence.

“I’ll remember what happened today. When I get back, I’ll go and look for One Dot to receive my punishment.” The Mahjong Brothers had followed him for a long time, so Song Jingchen rarely punished them, but the rules had long been set. Small fights aside, Thirty Thousand had made a start.

“Go out and close the door.”

“Yes.”

The study door closed. Looking at MO Yuan walking towards him, Xuanyuan Ziming was suddenly no longer worried about Thirty Thousand. He shrank back and retreated until his back was against the door. “Don’t attack. We’re on the same side.”

MO Yuan took out a porcelain bottle expressionlessly and poured out a pill. She grabbed Xuanyuan Ziming’s chin and pretended to feed him.

At that critical moment, an idea flashed across Xuanyuan Ziming’s mind. He exclaimed, “Jiang Tao! Jiang Tao!”

Song Jingchen paused. “MO Yuan.”

MO Yuan understood and let go of Xuanyuan Ziming. She placed the pill back and silently walked back behind Ji Luo, as if nothing had happened.

If not for the pain in his chin, Xuanyuan Ziming would have thought so too. He rubbed his cheeks and muttered with a long face, “I already said that we’re on the same side.”

However, in an instant, he became excited again. “Did I hear wrongly just now? Is my imperial uncle really still alive?”

“That’s not right. I’ve been to the prince’s residence. Imperial Uncle is lying there. He doesn’t look like…”

“How do you know about Jiang Tao?” Song Jingchen interrupted him and asked bluntly.

Xuanyuan Ziming choked. When he looked up, he met the gazes of the three people opposite him. They were clearly saying that if he couldn’t explain it well, they would force him to eat unknown pills.

He did not dare to hide it at the moment and told him about Xuanyuan Ce asking him to investigate Jiang Tao.

“You don’t know. Although Jiang Tao only has one butler, most of the Yu family’s power has fallen into his hands.” Xuanyuan Ce clicked his tongue. “Do you know why? Because of Imperial…”

He glanced at Ji Luo and quickly corrected himself. “Because of Madam Yu.”

The descendants of aristocratic families were no longer valued by the emperor, but there was a saying that a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. They still held the wealth accumulated by many predecessors.

As a result of their unequal net worth and status, anyone could go up and bite them. Naturally, they would not be willing. If they were unwilling, they would have to find a backer.

Who was more suitable to be their backer than Madam Yu, who had left her family and was now the princess consort?

However, they never expected that Madam Yu was no longer the Seventh Miss of the Yu family who could be given away like goods.

She and Jiang Tao cooperated with each other. After more than ten years, they had long taken over most of the Yu family’s businesses. However, the Yu family was still in the dark about this.

Not to mention the Yu family, even Xuanyuan Ziming was shocked when he found out about this. It was because Madam Yu gave him the impression that she was pure-hearted.

To be precise, she didn’t have much of a presence.

“Chu Feng and I spent a lot of effort to find out about this. Apart from this, we also found out that three months ago, a caravan under Jiang Tao’s name went to the border.”

Worried that something would happen to that caravan, Chu Feng led his men out of Phoenix City overnight.

At this point, Xuanyuan Ziming sighed. “That brat probably still doesn’t know that something has happened to Imperial Uncle.”

“Are your men still monitoring Jiang Tao?” Song Jingchen asked.

When Xuanyuan Ce left the day of the accident, he said that he would send someone to guard Jiang Tao and set up an ambush. He probably did not have time to arrange it.

“Of course. Before I came here, my men sent me a message that someone had sent a letter to Jiang Tao. I think I’ll be able to gain something this time.” Xuanyuan Ziming glanced at Song Jingchen and sighed heavily.

“Unfortunately, it’s useless even if I find out anything. Imperial Uncle is no longer around.”

He kept repeating that something had happened to His Highness. Song

Jingchen could tell that he was stupid. He pursed his lips and said, “His

Highness might not be dead.”

Xuanyuan Ziming’s eyes lit up. “Then the one in the lord’s residence…”

Song Jingchen narrowed his eyes. “I don’t know about the lord’s residence, but the person who was attacked in the courtyard and sent to the palace definitely wasn’t His Highness.”

Xuanyuan Ce must be seriously injured now. He was not sure if Madam Yu had replaced the real Xuanyuan Ce with a corpse.

“Haven’t you seen it?” He looked at Xuanyuan Ziming.

“That’s right, he’s all stiff.” Since it wasn’t his imperial uncle, Xuanyuan Ziming spoke casually. Halfway through his sentence, he circled Song Jingchen and shook his head. “The one I saw must be fake. Then where’s the real imperial uncle? No, you mean to say that it was Madam Yu who harmed my imperial uncle?”

His eyes widened in horror.

Song Jingchen looked at him coldly. “Why aren’t you curious why I know that His Highness is still alive?”

Xuanyuan Ziming froze. “Oh. That’s right. Why?”

He did not ask because he had gotten someone to investigate after Ji Luo appeared in Phoenix City this time. He accidentally found out about the Valley of Heavenly Secrets. He had heard rumors about the Valley of Heavenly Secrets in the past. With the two of them combined, there was nothing he could not figure out.

Everyone always acted like they were the smartest, but Xuanyuan Ziming preferred to act as if he were stupid.

However, he accidentally exposed himself.

Song Jingchen didn’t want to put on an act with him, so he said directly, “Send more people to monitor Jiang Tao. If anyone attacks him, you have to save him.

No, your men are no match for the other party.” He looked at Ji Luo.

Ji Luo nodded and called out, “You Er.”

“Who are you looking down on?”

It turned out that Song Jingchen wasn’t the one who looked down on him..
