Jiapingguan Chronicle

Shen Cha looked at Ying Er and Ying Wu who were frantically trying to present the evidence, and waved at them.

"There's no rush. Take your time."

"Okay!" Ying Er and Ying Wu looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. They were indeed a little panicked, thinking that the boss wanted to watch it now.

"I think Concubine Hui found out a few and put them in the box. When she hid it, she probably didn't put it away properly. You guys just need to work hard to sort out the information and send it directly to the study."

"Yes!"

"Be careful. Don't be in a hurry. We are not in a hurry to read it. If there are any that you think are more important, just mark them out."

"Yes!" Ying Er looked at Shen Cha, "Boss, aren't you in a hurry to see it?"

"The information collected by Concubine Hui should be some relatively early information and people. Those people are well hidden and will not easily reveal their tracks until the critical moment. Therefore, there is no need to rush to deal with them. Just focus on monitoring them." Seeing Ying Er and Ying Wu nod, Shen Cha sighed, "Concubine Hui is a thoughtful and cautious person. It is not easy for her to find so much evidence under the nose of someone like the Empress Dowager. But..." She looked at Mian Bai, "Why not give it directly to His Majesty?"

"I have asked this before. Your Majesty was still young at that time. Although he already had the spirit of a wise ruler, it was too difficult to fight against the remnants of the Empress Dowager." Mian Bai shook his head gently. "It is too difficult. The General and General Shen should understand this."

"Ok!"

Shen Cha agreed with Mian Bai's statement. Although most of the Song family's children did not love power and loved freedom, it did not mean that all of them did not have such little thoughts. Those minor clansmen who were related to the Song family in various ways were constantly making small moves at that time. Although they could not stir up any waves, they would be very distracted. If they chose to deal with the remnants of the Empress Dowager at this time, it would indeed be easy to form a situation of attack from both sides. This would not only easily cause instability in the court situation, but also easily affect the generals who led the troops outside.

"I have met the prince and princess several times. Both of them are generous and far-sighted. I think they were influenced by Concubine Hui." Shen Cha nodded and looked at Mian Bai. "It's a pity that you two siblings got to know each other too late. If it had been earlier, the late emperor would have loved you and you wouldn't have ended up like this."

"General, you are joking. I think this is the most ideal situation."

"Don't you want to take advantage of Concubine Hui?"

"No." Mian Bai shook his head gently. "Everyone says that if one person succeeds, everyone in the harem will benefit. But in this harem, everyone is trembling with fear and walking on thin ice. If you are not careful, it may be difficult to survive."

"You see it very clearly."

"Young General, I don't see it very clearly, but I personally feel the difficulty of this harem." Mian Bai sighed, "Let alone other things, even a small musician like me in the Imperial Music Garden had a narrow escape when I first entered the palace, let alone the concubines. Although my cousin is not the most favored one, she has two children. It is not easy to know that there are children and that the children actually survive and grow up."

"Oh?" Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "Empress Dowager Hui told you that someone in the harem did something to her? Why didn't you tell the late emperor? Why didn't you tell the empress dowager? This is absolutely not allowed." "I know this, and my cousin knows it too, but" Mian Bai sighed, "the late emperor and the empress dowager can't do anything about it!"

"You mean"

"Look at what happened to the Queen Mother, and you'll know who is behind this. Her methods are so clever that it's impossible to guard against them. There's not even a trace left."

"That's true."

"My cousin once said that when she first learned about the prince, she was very happy, but Concubine Xian reminded her not to be too ostentatious and to be careful of someone secretly attacking her. At that time, she thought the late queen was going to take action." Mian Bai looked at Shen Cha helplessly and said, "So, she didn't guard against the Grand Empress Dowager. If the late emperor hadn't suddenly decided to come to see my sister, she wasn't sure if she could survive."

"I seem to have heard of it." Shen Cha touched his chin, "The Grand Empress Dowager once sent candied fruit to each concubine, saying that it was sent from her natal family. It was very popular in Jiangnan. Although there were not many people in the harem of the previous empress, as the empress dowager at that time, she had to take care of one or two. If there was anything delicious in her palace, she would send it to each palace. But I didn't expect it."

"Yes, my sister almost had a miscarriage. From that time on, no matter who sent her anything, she would strictly check it to make sure there was no problem before consuming it. The prince and princess were born safely because of my sister's carefulness." Mian Bai sighed, "Although what my sister said was normal, I was terrified when I heard it. Maybe I wanted to take advantage of my sister's situation when I first recognized her, but after hearing this, this idea disappeared. I'm just a small manager of Yule Garden. I can't even take care of my own life, so I won't let my sister get in trouble."

"The boss has thought it through." Shen Cha nodded and gave him a faint smile.

"General, what are you doing?"

When Mian Bairen saw Shen Cha's smile, he couldn't help but shiver. He had a bad premonition that something bad was about to happen.

"Don't be so nervous. I just suddenly thought of something that might bother you." Seeing Mian Bai's horrified expression, Shen Cha smiled and said, "You should know all of Ke Chenyi's assets, right?"

"Yes, I have his account book." Seeing Shen Jiu's half-smile, Mian Bai quickly added, "It's the real account book, not the one to fool outsiders."

"Two sets of account books, and they are quite well organized." Shen Jiu raised his eyebrows, "Then take out all the account books and see how much wealth our famous Mr. Ke has left, and whether it is enough to compensate the victim this time. If not, these of yours..." He raised his chin and looked at the jewelry, "I am afraid some of them may not be saved."

"That's enough to reply to General Shen." Mian Bai looked helplessly at Shen Jiu, who seemed to be gloating over his misfortune. "I can't let him squander his money. The account books outside are specially made to fool people..."

"To fool Mr. Ke?"

"Young General, you are wise." Mian Bai was a little embarrassed and a little helpless, and said, "If it weren't for this, I would have really squandered all my family fortune." (End of this chapter)
