Chapter 63 Public Opinion Sudden Change
"My eldest daughter has already requested the Imperial Master to handle the matter impartially. If Han'er has truly done something wrong, I will naturally not tolerate it. I originally wanted to go to the Dali Temple to question Han'er in person, but my eldest daughter..."
Jiang Gaoyuan paused, sighed deeply, and continued, "Don't worry, everyone. The Dali Temple has its rules. The Imperial Preceptor has given me instructions on a case to supervise. I can't even see my daughter, so how can I interfere?"
Jiang Wansang paused while eating wontons, turned around, jumped over the crowd, and looked at the man in official uniform who looked humble and friendly.
These two simple sentences not only showed that she had no way to interfere in the case, but also expressed her concern for her children. She also hinted that Jiang Zihan's imprisonment might have been secretly planned by her, Jiang Wansang.
Haha, as expected of a prime minister, he is really good at talking!
Jiang Wansang took a bite of the wonton, and her face, which had originally been enjoying the show, became a little colder.
Originally, she didn't plan to deal with those people in the Prime Minister's Mansion now, but to wait and seek justice for the original owner later. But now that they have taken the initiative to confront her, she naturally won't be polite.
After swallowing the wonton in her mouth, Jiang Wansang turned to look at the man who had been standing behind her respectfully, with a very low sense of presence, "Jiang Yi, go and do something."
Jiang Yi was the oldest among the thirteen people she had been secretly training.
Originally, she gave them the right to name themselves, but these people were born into slavery, and the idea of being slaves was deeply rooted in them. Moreover, Jiang Wansang not only provided them with the best food, clothing and daily necessities, but also personally taught them martial arts. They had already sworn in their hearts to be loyal to her forever.
So after discussion, they decided to use Jiang Wansang's surname and sort them by age to make it easier for Jiang Wansang to remember them, and it also showed their determination to be the shadows behind the scenes.
Jiang Wansang was not a pretentious person, so she followed their decision and brought Jiang Yidai, who had a calm personality and the best talent, to her side two days ago.
Hearing her call him, Jiang Yi immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "Miss, please give me your orders."
During private training, they all called Jiang Wansang "Boss", but in public, they called her "Miss" just like Zheliu.
Jiang Wansang glanced at Jiang Gaoyuan, who was still acting in the crowd, and smiled softly, "Go find Miss Zhao and tell her that Prime Minister Jiang has publicly admitted that his daughter is suspected of hiring a killer to stage a show to gain fame, and he said he will not tolerate it. Tell her to bring these words to Jiang Zihan."
She wanted to see how much Jiang Zihan, the group's favorite daughter, trusted her biological father, and how much Jiang Gaoyuan, the old fox, would dote on her when his own daughter suspected him.
Jiang Yi murmured "yes", then turned around and quickly disappeared into the crowd to do what his lady had asked him to do for the first time.
The fact that he was chosen by Jiang Wansang to be by her side meant that he was not just someone who could simply "follow orders".
After bringing back Jiang Wansang's words, he also brought back Jiang Zihan's reaction after hearing these words.
Upon learning that his own father had confessed to the crime on his behalf in public, Jiang Zihan was so angry that he shouted in the cell that it was impossible, saying that Zhao Zhizhi had deceived him, and he also shouted that he wanted to confront Jiang Gaoyuan.
She said she didn't believe it, but her excited reaction clearly showed that she took it to heart.
Jiang Wansang was looking forward to what kind of excitement she would have with the "harmonious and warm family" in the Prime Minister's Mansion after she came out of the Dali Temple!
But Jiang Zihan still needs an opportunity to get out of Dali Temple.
This opportunity lies in Su Huanyu, the son of destiny.
Within two days, news came from people who were keeping an eye on the Seventh Prince's Mansion that Su Huanyu had arranged for people to spread new rumors in the imperial city.
Listening to Lin Tong talking about those new rumors, Jiang Wansang was surprised and a little delighted.
Su Huanyu wanted to shift the blame to someone else, but he had to shift it to someone who had something on Jiang Zihan.
With such a good opportunity in front of her, she certainly wanted to let Su Huanyu experience what it felt like to shoot herself in the foot.
Jiang Wansang turned to look at Jiang Yi, "Take Jiang Er and the others with you to help spread these new rumors faster."
Her requirements for those thirteen people were not only good martial arts skills, but also the ability to handle tasks in all aspects.
Now that they have just started training, it is most appropriate to let them do this little thing.
Facts have proved that the people chosen by Jiang Wansang are indeed capable of doing things.
In less than three days, the rumors on the streets had completely changed.
Before, almost everyone was shouting and scolding Jiang Zihan, and some even went to the Dali Temple, clamoring for Lord Zhao to punish him severely.
But now a rumor suddenly spread in the imperial city, saying that the person who found the fake criminal was not Miss Jiang Er, but the concubine's daughter of the second branch of the Jiang family.
The second branch of the Jiang family has only one concubine daughter, Jiang Xiaodie.
The news of what happened at the Zhao family's autumn banquet spread from someone's mouth, and everyone knew that Jiang Zihan and Jiang Xiaodie had been hanging out outside all night, intending to use themselves as bait to catch the criminals.
Afterwards, many people came forward to testify that they could indeed see the two young ladies from the Jiang family on the streets every night.
Among these people, there were two or three "witnesses" who said that they had personally heard the illegitimate daughter of the second branch of the Jiang family complain that the criminal had not taken the bait, leaving her unable to rest well for several days. She also suggested simply spending money to find a criminal, but was refuted by the second daughter of the Jiang family.
Initially, few people paid attention to what these two or three people said, until a woman who claimed to be the mother of a "criminal" who died unjustly ran to the Dali Temple to appeal for justice, accusing Jiang Xiaodie of spending ten taels of silver to hire her son to play the criminal.
Now, all the public opinion that had been weighing on Jiang Zihan turned to Jiang Xiaodie.
"I knew Second Miss Jiang was innocent. Fortunately, God has eyes and there are so many witnesses willing to come forward. Otherwise, how heartbroken would Second Miss Jiang be if she was wrongly accused after doing good things!"
"Yes! That Jiang Xiaodie is indeed a concubine's daughter. She is narrow-minded and only uses dirty womanly tactics. I heard that she was seriously injured and only woke up a few days ago. Otherwise, she would have jumped out to claim the credit long ago."
"She caused so much trouble to Miss Jiang Er and played with the lives of so many women. She deserved to die. It's too easy for her to be seriously injured and unconscious!"
"It's just..."
Remarks like these spread so widely that they overshadowed all previous discussions, and even the emperor in the palace heard about them without any officials reporting them.
Although this was a conflict between two younger generations within the Jiang family, the matter was too serious and the emperor had to intervene.
However, the person being questioned was not Jiang Gaoyuan, but Jiang Xiaodie’s biological father, the second uncle of the Jiang family.
Over the years, Uncle Jiang Er has only been able to reach an eighth-rank position thanks to his brother who is the prime minister. He is not a capable person himself.
Hearing the emperor's questioning, he was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy on the spot. He didn't care whether the rumors were true or not, and said that he would send Jiang Xiaodie to the Dali Temple personally.
What happened in the court reached Jiang Wansang's ears before the court was dismissed.
Of course she doesn't have such ability at the moment, but Pei Zhanzhou does!
When the news from the court arrived, Jiang Wansang immediately took Lin Tong and Zhe Liu to the courtyard of the second house.
Considering that they grew up together, how could she bear to let her cousin take the scapegoat!
