Red Mansion: Unparalleled Jade Young Master/red Mansion: Wrongly Married Qin Keqing at the Beginning

"It's okay, you just pretend that I'm not here. And if someone comes, I can help you cover it."

"Young master, there are few people here, and there is no one around."

"Don't be afraid of [-], just be afraid of what happens."

"..."

……

The next day.

Imperial City, Chonghua Palace.

Zhao An was reading a book when suddenly the voice of the confidant eunuch came from outside the door:

"Your Highness, the servant has something important to report."

"Come in and talk." Zhao An flipped a page of the book and said calmly.

The little eunuch walked into the house, first saluted Zhao An, and then said:

"Your Highness, something serious has happened to your Fourth Highness."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Zhao An responded with a calm expression.

He knew very well that Zhao Ping would definitely make trouble.Sure enough, as he expected, there was movement.

The little eunuch looked around and saw no one around, so he approached Zhao An and whispered:

"The Fourth Highness went to the Muni Court."

"How?" Zhao An nodded, it was inevitable, with Zhao Ping's lustful temperament, it would be a ghost if he didn't go.

"Dead! Several confidant guards of His Royal Highness suddenly went crazy and divided his body one by one. It is said that those who collected His Highness's body all vomited profusely." The little eunuch said with a pale face.

pat!

Zhao An opened his mouth wide, dumbfounded, and dropped the book in his hand to the ground, how could he still look half-satisfied just now?

In his plan, Zhao Ping should fight Jia Jue, and it is not impossible for the last party to die.

But he never expected that death would come so quickly and so strangely.

"What about Miaoyu?" He asked hastily.

"Dead! Many people said that it was His Highness the Fourth Highness who desecrated the Buddhist gate, so that the Buddha sent divine punishment!" The little eunuch said hastily.

Zhao An stood up, and his expression became extremely serious. He would not believe in some bullshit divine punishment. He knew very well that everything should be Jia Jue's means.

Jia Jue is so cruel and merciless!Even the prince is willing to kill!

If Jia Jue knew that he was behind everything, how would Jia Jue treat him?

Zhao An's heart was suddenly filled with panic, and he felt a huge crisis.

If Jia Jue really wanted to attack him, how would he protect himself?

He was very anxious and thought about it, and finally, a thought appeared in his mind:

If he was the crown prince, or in other words, he was the only candidate for the crown prince, would Jia Jue dare to move him easily?

Will Zhao Qi allow his last son to have an accident?

The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:

Fifth brother, I'm sorry, the eldest brother just wants to survive.

Chapter 362

Imperial City, Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Jia Jue stood where he was, looking at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose, like a clay sculpture, motionless.

"Trash! There's no way to find out this, and there's no clue about that! What do I need you for!" Zhao Qi yelled at Du Hao, the commanding officer of Jin Yiwei, his face was full of ferocity.

Originally, the death of Zhao Tai and Zhao He was enough to make him uncomfortable, but a few days ago, the death of Zhao Ping and his youngest son Zhao Wen dealt him a heavy blow, making him inexplicably sad and angry, almost going crazy.

Yes, Zhao Ping died, even Zhao Wen died, fell into the water and died by drowning.

He had a total of five princes, and by now, four of them had died.

He knew that this matter was not accidental, so he ordered Du Hao to investigate the case, asking him to find out the truth in a short time.

But Du Hao tried his best, but still didn't have any clue.

"Your Majesty, this humble minister is incompetent, please punish him!" Du Hao knelt down towards Zhao Qi.

"Come here!" Zhao Qi was furious and wanted to punish Du Hao.

At this moment, Jia Jue stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have a book to play."

Zhao Qi looked at him, the anger in his heart subsided a little, he stopped his movements: "What's the matter, let's talk."

Jia Jue whispered: "Your Majesty, these days, I have been watching from the sidelines, and I have also noticed the matter of Mr. Du's investigation. From the first day Your Majesty ordered Mr. Du to solve the case, I have known it. This case cannot be solved.”

"Why?" Zhao Qi asked.

"Because this case cannot be solved."

Zhao Qi frowned deeply: "What do you mean by that?"

Jia Jue cupped his hands towards Zhao Qi: "Let me ask Mr. Du about something, and His Majesty will know."

"You ask." Zhao Qi nodded.

Jia Jue looked at Du Hao and asked, "May I ask Mr. Du, why did His Highness the Fourth Highness go to the Muni Court?"

"Lord Jia, Your Majesty. According to reports, Lord Du went to Muni Courtyard to find a layman named Miaoyu." Du Hao replied.

Jia Jue nodded and continued: "Is the Fourth Highness familiar with this Miaoyu?"

"The two have never met before."

Jia Jue asked again: "Since we have never met, why did His Royal Highness go to the Muni Court to look for her?"

"This..." Du Hao hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know."

"Then let me ask it another way. What did the Fourth Highness do before going to the Muni Temple?"

"After the Fourth Highness got up that day, he first stayed in the palace for a while, then went to find His Royal Highness the First Prince for a drink, and then went straight to the Muni Court." Du Hao quickly replied.

Jia Jue didn't ask any more, but looked at Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi frowned deeply, Zhao Ping and Miao Yusu had never met, after drinking with Zhao An, he went straight to find her.

No matter how you look at it, this is not normal.

After Zhao Ping's bizarre death, Zhao Wen suddenly fell into the water and died.

Zhao An became the only prince.

He is the biggest beneficiary!

Zhao Qi also understood why Jia Jue said the case could not be solved.

If it is broken, Zhao An will be sentenced to death, so should he be punished then?

If it is cured, he will have no heirs. This is a fatal blow to him. If he is not cured, where will the law of the country be?How to deal with the accountability of ministers and common people?

Zhao Qi seemed to have aged several decades in an instant. He sat weakly on the dragon chair and waved towards Du Hao:

"You go ahead and fine your salary for half a year, just to make a warning to others."

Du Hao hurriedly thanked him, then glanced at Jia Jue and exited the hall, his eyes were full of gratitude.

To be honest, he didn't think so much at all. It was Jia Jue's words that saved his black hat, and even his life.

After Du Hao left, the hall returned to silence.

After a long time, Zhao Qi suddenly asked: "Jia Jue, in your opinion, is it really him who did it?"

"Your Majesty already has the answer in mind," Jia Jue replied.

Although he hinted clearly, he didn't say it out loud, and Zhao Qi made up everything by himself.

Zhao Qi's eyes twitched slightly. In fact, at this stage, the truth is already obvious.

Zhao Ping's death probably has something to do with Zhao An, and Zhao Wen's death is even more suspicious of Zhao An. When Zhao Wen fell into the water, no one noticed that the servants around him were caught up in various things. , failed to rescue Zhao Wen in time.

In the palace, there are probably only a few people who can have this ability.

Only Zhao An had such a motive.

However, the most important problem at this time is how to deal with Zhao An.

He is now Zhao Qi's only male, if he is really dealt with, Zhao Qi will become a lonely family and his throne will be unstable.

But if he didn't deal with Zhao An, he would feel extremely resentful in his heart. Zhao An could even kill his own brothers, so what's the difference between this and a beast?

If he dared to attack his own brother today, he would dare to attack him tomorrow.

He is really in a dilemma.

Now, he finally understands how important Jia Jue's phrase "have more children" is.

If he had more heirs, how could such a thing happen?

It's a pity that the Zhao family's heir was not prosperous at all, and he was old and his health was getting worse day by day, so he couldn't give birth.

In fact, over the years, he had asked many imperial physicians to see him, and also took many medicines and secret recipes.

However, there is no effect at all.

He looked at Jia Jue enviously, if only he could be as young as Jia Jue.

Thinking of this, he was suddenly stunned, and a thought grew in his heart:

He can't give birth, but Jia Jue can.

As soon as this idea appeared, it quickly spread in his mind, and he couldn't restrain it at all.

Perhaps, Jia Jue's child does not have royal blood, but this is not important. What he needs is to give the minister hope, to check and balance Zhao An, to stabilize his throne and the country, and it is not necessary to pass the throne to Jia Jue's child in the future .

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was a lot to be done. First of all, Jia Jue was his close minister, and no one suspected him of entering or leaving the palace, which created excellent conditions for his actions.

Secondly, he is young and versatile in both civil and military affairs.The heirs born should be extremely excellent, which is extremely helpful for stabilizing his throne.
