Green tea was read, the villain's family begged me to be happy

After Jiang Jinyu finished speaking, the four people in the room all remained silent, even the little fat man didn't dare to say a word.

When Third Aunt asked the system this question, he heard it clearly and felt that Third Aunt was really going too far.

His third uncle is handsome and a close minister to the emperor. He is deeply loved by the emperor and has a bright future. Many noble ladies are attracted to him.

"Grandma, is there any misunderstanding here? It is obvious that the marriage between Uncle and Aunt was arranged because Aunt fell into the water and was rescued by Uncle. They all said that it was planned by her. How come she can't even remember Uncle's name now?" The little fat boy couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

After all, Xu Wanying had resorted to some trickery to marry into the Marquis's family. No matter what, she wouldn't have the wherewithal to call her husband something or have no impression of him, right?

Cen frowned and couldn't help but sighed, "Grandmother can't be sure whether the woman you call Third Aunt is still the Xu Wanying who fell into the water."

The Cen family did not have any definite evidence, but every time they went back to Qingxi Pavilion, Xu Wanying's conversation with the system would reveal some evidence.

This third daughter-in-law seemed to be from another era, and she would occasionally mention her.

"Ah?" Pan Ge'er was stunned for a moment when he heard this answer. Then a bit of fear flashed across his face. He couldn't help but ask, "If it's not Xu Wanying, who else could it be? Could it be a water ghost? Oh, by the way, when Third Aunt was playing chess with Auntie today, she also said that her eyes were bewitched by a ghost and she couldn't see the chess game clearly."

He was obviously very afraid of ghosts. When he talked about this, he couldn't help but curl up into a ball, looking quite helpless.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Jinyu rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "New Year picture doll, please use your brain. Didn't she see the chess game clearly? She was just looking for an excuse to regret her move. Did this rouge dot on the middle of your forehead also shock your brain? Can you only think with your toes?"

Whenever she talked about playing chess, she would get so angry that it became a lifelong trauma.

"Little sister, why are you talking so harshly? Our Pan brother is very smart!" Li Chunlan immediately came to her defense.

"Mom, you don't know how troublesome my third sister-in-law is. She is simply the most difficult person to serve I have ever met. She is even more picky than the princess!" Jiang Jinyu ignored her eldest sister-in-law and complained to Cen.

She was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Loyalty. Every New Year's Day, the palace would hold a grand banquet, and she would follow Cen to the palace to attend the banquet. She had also met the ladies and princesses in the harem.

Although the princesses were the emperor's daughters, not all of them were favored by the emperor. Some unfavored princesses did not live a happy life.

Even the favored princesses would not act arrogantly when seeing her, but would be very polite. After all, the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty still had some status.

But Xu Wanying is really more difficult to serve than the princess. It’s hard to describe in words.

Mrs. Cen frowned and said, "Don't say such things. How can your third sister-in-law be difficult to serve? She just complained about some things in her heart, but she didn't force anyone to do anything. It's because we need something from her and we are eager to make her happy that she feels difficult to serve."

Ever since Xu Wanying trusted her so much last time, Cen's heart has become crooked and she thinks her third daughter-in-law is good in every way.

Jiang Jinyu curled her lips, unable to refute. It was indeed she who was eager to play chess with her third sister-in-law, otherwise she would not have suffered this torture. She could only endure it.

***

In the military camp outside the capital, Xiao Yun rode his horse at full speed and immediately delivered Cen's letter.

When Jiang Chengzhong saw the contents of the letter, he was shocked at first, and then he let out a long sigh.

"Go back first and tell mother that I already know about it and have arranged the follow-up matters. Let her rest assured."

After he sent Xiao Yun away, he immediately wrote a letter and had it delivered to the palace.

Jiang Chengzhong called the soldiers and immediately said, "Give orders. I have received a report that someone is hiding prohibited items in the barracks. Check the entire army!"

"Yes!"

As a result of Jiang Chengzhong's order, the entire garrison in the suburbs of Beijing soon began a large-scale investigation.

In just half an hour, the entire army had completed the search, and two deputy chiefs of staff came to report.

"General, no banned items have been found in Dongying."

"General, no banned items have been found in the West Camp!"

"The information I received is accurate. I'll give you one more chance. Are there really no banned items?" Jiang Chengzhong asked in a cold voice.

"Yes, General. We have conducted a thorough investigation and have not missed any corner. Is the information wrong?"

The two deputy lieutenant generals on the left and right looked at each other and answered calmly.

"Have you checked it yourselves?" Jiang Chengzhong asked coldly.

The two men were both startled. The left deputy lieutenant general was the first to react and said immediately, "We checked. The subordinate and the right deputy lieutenant general were the first to check each other!"

"Oh, checking each other can easily lead to misunderstandings that you are covering up. Check again!"

After Jiang Chengzhong said this, both of them showed a look of hurt and disbelief on their faces, obviously hurt by his distrust.

"All captains, follow me and go to the tents of the left and right lieutenant generals for inspection!"

"Yes!"

The left and right deputy adjutant generals had no idea what he was up to. Although they felt a little guilty, they calmed down after looking at each other.

After all, they had the intention to frame him, but had not yet carried it out, so Jiang Chengzhong should not have known about it.

Several captains followed Jiang Chengzhong to the two men's tents. A team of men stepped forward and immediately turned the two tents upside down.

"General, there are no prohibited items."

Soon the person leading the search came to report, and the left and right deputy lieutenant generals also breathed a sigh of relief.

"I am not making this up out of nothing. My long-serving attendant Xu Dazhuang disappeared two days ago. I sent people to look for him everywhere, but only found his body and the message he had passed on with his life. He said that the left and right deputy lieutenants in the camp had secretly planned something bad, and had already forged the banned items, just waiting for the truth to be revealed."

"I am not a person who only listens to one side, but I have to take seriously the news that Da Zhuang has passed on at the risk of his life. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground today, I will still ask for an answer. If I have wronged the two deputy lieutenant generals, then I will immediately resign from the court as an apology to my two brothers!"

Jiang Chengzhong spoke righteously, and when he said the last sentence, he drew the sword from his waist and thrust it into the ground to prove his determination.

"dig!"

At his command, the soldiers fetched shovels and started digging.

The two deputy lieutenant generals were originally fearless. After all, they were very careful and did not hide anything in the barracks. They were afraid of today's scene.

But when Jiang Chengzhong mentioned Xu Dazhuang, both of them changed their expressions slightly.

Xu Dazhuang was a man they had bribed with great effort, using all kinds of threats and inducements, and spending countless amounts of money to get him to agree to be their spy.

But now, this long-time attendant who was instigated to rebel is actually dead, and they are still unaware of it.

What on earth was going on? Could it be that Jiang Chengzhong had noticed this in advance and deliberately killed Xu Dazhuang to set a trap for them?

Before they could figure it out, they heard the soldiers shouting, "We found something!"

"General, it's a wooden box, and it's full of letters. The contents of the letters are--" The soldier who stepped forward to check the things stopped here.

"What's the content of the letter? Say it loudly! We are all soldiers here, brothers who fought together with us. There is nothing that cannot be said!" Jiang Chengzhong said in a shocking voice.

"The contents are letters between you and the king and prince of the enemy country, promising high positions and generous salaries to persuade you to betray your country!" The soldier shouted without hesitation.

Suddenly, the soldiers were in an uproar and everyone looked over.

"Hehe, this general was born in the Loyalty Marquis Mansion, the future Loyalty Marquis. Because of my prominent origin, I was once laughed at by the old soldiers. They said that I was enjoying the good life by lying on the merits of my ancestors. Later, I fought my way out step by step, from a centurion to a thousand-man captain. Thanks to the emperor's love, I was now named the Loyal and Martial General. I have both reputation and family background, and I also have the emperor's trust to guard Wangjing."

"If there is anything in this world that can move me, it is loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and dying on the battlefield to protect Dali!"

Jiang Chengzhong's words were full of passion, which instantly aroused the emotions of the soldiers, and suddenly a roar rang out in the barracks.

"Loyal to the emperor and patriotic to the country, die on the battlefield!"

"Loyal to the emperor and patriotic to the country, die on the battlefield!"

The roars echoed throughout the tent over and over again, frightening the two deputy lieutenant generals.

Jiang Chengzhong let the soldiers vent for a while before he raised his hand to calm them down, and silence returned to the tent.

"I have never seen these letters, let alone written them. Two deputy lieutenant generals, please explain to me why this box of things was buried deep under your tents?" He glared at them and asked in a cold voice.

"No, no, no, General, we don't know where this came from either."

"I don't know. There are witnesses and evidence. You can't just say I don't know to get rid of him. Come here, first give him sixty military sticks, and then torture him severely!" Jiang Chengzhong ordered in a cold voice, without listening to what they said.

The two deputy admirals were dragged away, and he gave them a few words of scolding before letting them leave.

When he sat back in the commander's tent, Jiang Chengzhong realized that his palms were full of cold sweat.

If it weren't for the system, in a moment, when the emperor discovered the letter in the secret memorial, he would probably be taken away and tortured.
