Chapter 224
Beijing, the first thing that General Cheng Cheng Yanbin did when he returned to the General's Mansion was to hurriedly return to the study, and secretly met the dark guard who had returned to Beijing first.
As soon as the dark guard came out of the secret passage, he knelt down on one knee and gave a salute: "Master, some of the subordinates have already found out, but those who died in those days died and the missing disappeared, and the subordinates are still investigating."
Cheng Yanbin, who was sitting at the top, said, "Get up and find out what you found, one by one."
The dark guard Cheng Mu got up and took a step forward, and then whispered: "In those last few days when Madam was in the other courtyard, someone did visit her in the other courtyard."
Cheng Yanbin asked coldly, "Who is it?"
Cheng Mu glanced at the master: "It's your cousin Cheng Xianglan who has five clothes, that is, Cheng Xianglan, the good sister that Mrs. grew up with since she was a child."
Cheng Yanbin listened, his face was ashen, the hand holding the back of the chair could not help but use internal force, and directly grabbed two five-fingerprints.
Cheng Mu saw his master's face was ugly, but thinking of the information he had found, he continued: "My subordinates have found a few servants who were with her before she was assigned to Beijiang, and learned from them that when Cheng Xianglan visited his wife in the other courtyard at that time. , with her little son who is less than three months old.
After her subordinates were tortured to extract a confession, she learned from the maidservant that Cheng Xianglan had never let her subordinates touch her young son since she left the courtyard, until she was exiled half a month later.
The subordinates also learned from the yamen who escorted them back then that Cheng Xianglan didn't look like a mother at all on the way to exile. If the old lady of the Jing family at that time took pity on the child, perhaps the child would not have lived in the northern Xinjiang at all. Fortunately, it was summer, so it survived. "
Cheng Yanbin said, "That child is Jing Rui, right?"
Cheng Mu replied: "Yes, it is Jing Rui."
Cheng Mu continued to report: "As for what she said to the madam in the other courtyard, I don't know, because the maid said that there were only madam and Cheng Xianglan in the house at the time, and all the people who served were let go.
Not long after Cheng Xianglan left, his wife fell seriously ill and passed out.
The next day, Princess Jing'an took people to another courtyard. On the grounds that she had not taken good care of her, she directly sold all the people around her, but until now, her subordinates have not been able to find their whereabouts. "
Cheng Yanbin closed his eyes, thinking about Cheng Mu's words all the time, thinking of what happened to Jing Rui, and hating Cheng Xianglan and the Jing family in his heart.
Thinking that Princess Jing'an dared to deal with the people around Xinyi privately, her eyes were full of icy colors, why she did that is obvious.
Cheng Yanbin instructed coldly, "Continue to look for the person who was with Madam back then, arrange someone to go to Zhongyao's side, keep an eye on him, and see if anyone secretly associates with her."
Cheng Mu clasped his fists: "Yes, Master."
Cheng Yanbin instructed again: "Send someone to watch Princess Jing'an's mansion and report any news at any time, go down."
After the dark guard Cheng Mu left, Cheng Yanbin was very confused for a while. Although he was mentally prepared, when the reality was in front of him, he still couldn't accept it. He even raised a son for the man who killed his wife for 18 years. What a shame.
thought in my heart: Cheng Xianglan, you are good, Xinyi treats you well, but you hurt her, and let us separate our father and son, whether you are instigated by others or jealous, you deserve to die.
Since everyone in the Jing family has bullied my son, they will accompany you to hell.
So, he called directly into the dark, "Cheng Lin."
Another person came out of the dark: "Master."
