After tearing up the script of the vicious female supporting role, I cleaned up the Xiangfu every da

For the first time, Pei Zhanzhou took a strong interest in someone.

Isn’t the biggest secret in the imperial city the one that he, Master Pei, has been planning for many years?

Pei Zhanzhou looked at the person in front of him quietly, with a mysterious expression.

Jiang Wansang had a calm expression. She jumped over him and sat on a stool beside him.

She poured herself a cup of tea and then said slowly, "Master Imperial Master, what is your impression of the Seventh Prince, Su Huanyu?"

Hearing this, Pei Zhanzhou's eyebrows twitched.

Everyone in the imperial city knew that Jiang Wansang, the daughter of the Jiang family, had been in love with the seventh prince Su Huanyu since she was a child. She once prayed for a peace amulet for the seventh prince every three steps and sewed it into his purse with her own hands. As a result, she fell seriously ill and stayed in bed for more than half a month.

Although the seventh prince Su Huanyu is a man of great character, he treats Jiang Wansang differently and always carries the purse containing the amulet with him.

The two of them were already engaged, and this became a good story among many people in the imperial city.

What does Jiang Wansang mean by mentioning him at this moment?

Seeing his expression, Jiang Wansang knew he was recalling some rumors between the original owner and Su Huanyu, but she didn't explain. She simply said, "Everyone knows that the Seventh Prince Su Huanyu was once the most likely to compete with the Crown Prince, but he suddenly fell from grace and became a mortal, spending his days in prostitutes and becoming the Crown Prince's henchman."

"It's a pity that everyone misjudged him. This Seventh Prince, who hides behind the Crown Prince and is looked down upon by everyone, is actually a man-eating wolf."

Jiang Wansang looked up at Pei Zhanzhou, his eyes piercing. "Master Imperial Master, have you ever considered how a weak scholar, so far away from the Imperial City, could survive the pursuit of so many assassins without a single blow, and even safely appear outside the Procuratorate to strike the drum and present his grievances and evidence to the Emperor?"

Pei Zhanzhou's eyes moved slightly.

He had thought of this a long time ago and had someone investigate, but nothing was found. Even the scholar himself thought it was just luck.

Now, judging by Jiang Wansang's intentions...

He slowly said, "Are you trying to say that the person behind all this was the Seventh Prince Su Huanyu?"

"That's right," Jiang Wansang replied confidently. "Ledgers are something you might not find even if you send someone specifically to look for them. So how could that scholar have gotten them? And how could he even find someone to write a blood oath with ten thousand people right under the nose of the Jianzhou prefect?"

"He was able to do all this because of Su Huanyu's help behind the scenes. Not only did he leave Jianzhou safely, but he also had the opportunity to make his debut."

According to the plot development in the book, Su Huanyu not only weakened the power of the crown prince and the third prince, but also made them suspected by the emperor, and even gave himself the upper hand over many ministers in the court.

This round can be said to kill three birds with one stone!

Pei Zhanzhou is a smart man. Jiang Wansang has explained it so clearly, so what else could he not understand?

But he also had doubts, "Since the Seventh Prince hid it so deeply, how did you know about it?"

He checked every single person in the royal family.

Because of some things that happened back then, Su Huanyu's mother's family was ransacked and exterminated, and his mother was demoted to Zhaoyi and locked herself in a small Buddhist temple all day long. Su Huanyu, with the remaining power of his mother's family, became a lackey of the prince.

From the information he found out, Su Huanyu had indeed secretly helped the prince do a lot of things over the years, but other than that, there was no other doubt.

Why does Jiang Wansang know so much about something that even he can't find out?

Guessing he'd be suspicious, Jiang Wansang calmly asked, "As the Imperial Preceptor of Nansu, there must be many people in Nansu... no, I should say, in the entire world, openly and covertly investigating the Imperial Preceptor. Has anyone ever investigated the matter?"

As the strongest villain, Pei Zhanzhou's secrets were not revealed until the finale.

So Jiang Wansang's rhetorical question left him speechless for a moment.

Pei Zhanzhou silently looked at the person in front of him who was sipping tea comfortably, wondering what he was thinking in his heart.

He would investigate whether what Jiang Wansang said was true or not, but he did not believe her claim that she approached him only to rely on his power to get protection.

The most powerful person in the entire Nansu Kingdom is the Nansu Emperor.

With what Jiang Wansang knew, not only could she get protection, but she would also be able to obtain huge rewards. However, she insisted on coming to his side to be a small counselor.

If you say there is no purpose behind it, he certainly doesn't believe it.

Seeing him staring at her for a long time without saying anything, Jiang Wansang knew that this big villain's suspicious nature had come out.

She didn't mind and continued, "I might as well tell the Imperial Master another piece of news."

She stared into Pei Zhanzhou's eyes and said word by word, "The master behind this Treasure Pavilion is the Seventh Prince Su Huanyu."

In the book, this Zhenxiu Pavilion is Su Huanyu's biggest source of financial support and intelligence. No one knew this secret until he ascended the throne.

So when he heard Jiang Wansang's words, even Pei Zhanzhou was surprised.

He was naturally aware of how powerful Zhenxiu Pavilion was, but he didn't expect that it belonged to Su Huanyu.

Pei Zhanzhou stood with his hands behind his back, a strange look flashing across his face, as if he had always been the mysterious and cold Master Pei.

He didn't say whether he believed Jiang Wansang's words, nor did he say whether he agreed to cooperate.

"If the Seventh Prince knew what I said today, your engagement..."

"The one who is engaged to the Seventh Prince is the Jiang family's legitimate daughter, not me, the fake daughter." Jiang Wansang said directly.

She had no interest in the engagement with Su Huanyu, but the old fox Jiang Gaoyuan kept her in the Jiang family just to deal with the engagement with Su Huanyu and to maintain his good reputation.

Seeing that she mentioned her engagement with Su Huanyu, with undisguised disgust and aversion between her brows, Pei Zhanzhou's eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.

He had heard about how obsessed Jiang Wansang was with Su Huanyu, and had even seen it with his own eyes.

At that time, she was extremely stupid.

What exactly happened to cause a woman to change so much towards the person she loved deeply?

Jiang Wansang ignored the look he cast upon her and put down the empty teacup in her hand. "Master Imperial Master, you can take your time investigating the matter of the Treasure Pavilion, and you can also take your time considering the cooperation. I won't bother you any more."

She stood up, flicked her skirt, and prepared to leave.

But when she reached the door, she suddenly thought of something and turned around. "Today, I have saved the life of the Grand Master. There is no need to repay him. I would like to borrow two people from the Grand Master."

With such a big commotion at the Treasure Pavilion, the news must have spread a long time ago.

Thinking about what Jiang Zihan said just now, I am afraid that when she returns to the Prime Minister's Mansion today, there will be a big ceremony to welcome me.

In that case, she certainly wouldn't be unprepared.
