Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down
Chapter 1623 Substitute Bride 27
Grandma Jiang searched for the person who stole Granny Ma's letters, but found no trace of them. The reason was simple: Linlang had taken the letters and distributed them very secretly. The recipients were all cunning old foxes. Although Grandma Jiang was cautious, she was no match for their caution, so how could she possibly find out?
However, Grandma Jiang was constantly being monitored by these people. Her unusual behavior quickly aroused their suspicion.
Even though Grandma Jiang thought she was being very careful in her search, she was bound to be discovered as soon as she took action, because the people watching her were even more vigilant.
When those people saw that Granny Jiang was looking for someone, they felt something was wrong, so they started watching Granny Ma to see if there was anything unusual.
—These people knew that the person who wrote the letter was Granny Ma. They discovered this quickly after receiving the letter and keeping an eye on the Qinghe Prince's Mansion. After all, it was easy for people to discover that Granny Ma had inexplicably contacted Third Grandma Jiang and that her family had suddenly become rich.
After discovering this anomaly, these people investigated Granny Ma again and naturally found out that she had entrusted someone to keep the letters and then they disappeared. Then they realized that the person who wrote the letters was Granny Ma.
After discovering that the letter writer was Granny Ma, they kept a close watch on her to see if she changed.
Then, after the other party returned from Grandma Jiang's place, they discovered that Granny Ma was muttering to herself about why Grandma Jiang didn't have any money this time, and then she also muttered about the reason why she asked Grandma Jiang for money. As a result, these people quickly realized that Granny Ma was acting strangely and that the reason why the other party asked for money had changed.
They immediately understood that this was what Granny Ma had said in her letter: that Granny Jiang had brainwashed her.
Furthermore, they must have done something to her to make her reveal that she had prepared the letter and then lost it, which led Grandma Jiang to discover the matter and try to find out who took the letter, so she searched everywhere for someone.
Those who received the letters were also curious about who the messenger was.
Unlike Granny Ma, they didn't think the messenger had special abilities like Granny Jiang. After all, if someone really had those abilities, why would they need to deliver Granny Ma's letter to them? They could just kill Granny Jiang themselves.
Indeed, these people understood that someone had inexplicably sent them this letter, probably to provoke them into causing trouble for Grandma Jiang.
Since they need to cause trouble for Granny Jiang, the person who delivered the message must not be someone with special abilities like Granny Jiang. Even if they are, they must be weaker than Granny Jiang. Otherwise, they wouldn't need to deliver the message; they could handle it themselves.
Based on this, they deduced that this person must have a huge conflict with Granny Jiang, otherwise she wouldn't have sent the letter to them. She must have been dealing with Granny Jiang herself, and after seeing Granny Ma's letter, she realized that Granny Ma had special abilities that she couldn't handle on her own, so she brought them in.
Since they thought it was just an ordinary person, they naturally searched without worry, wanting to see who this person was. After all, even without special abilities, it was quite impressive that someone could find the letter written by Granny Ma and deliver it to them so discreetly, without them knowing who sent it. However, no matter how much they investigated, they couldn't find out who had done this.
They did suspect Linlang and Prince Qinghe, but they couldn't convince the two of any major conflict with Granny Jiang. After all, on the surface, the two of them at most disliked that Master Jiang had taken a lot of money from the Prince's Mansion, but they didn't dislike Granny Jiang. If they really wanted to deal with Granny Jiang, it should be Master Jiang.
Third Master Jiang took so much money from the Prince's Mansion, yet Prince Qinghe and Princess Qinghe didn't do anything to him. Third Madam Jiang had no conflicts with them, so they certainly wouldn't do anything to her. Therefore, they really couldn't think of any reason why these two would cause trouble for Third Madam Jiang. Since they had no reason to cause trouble for Third Madam Jiang, these two really didn't seem like the kind of people who would secretly send letters to make Third Madam Jiang suffer.
Unless they discover that Grandma Jiang is acting strangely, but they can't deal with her themselves, so they bring in these third parties, hoping that these third parties will deal with Grandma Jiang.
This makes sense, but even if it makes sense, there should be some action from these two people. However, after observing them for a year, they didn't do anything unusual. They just went about their business all day long and didn't seem to know that there was anything wrong with Grandma Jiang.
—In fact, since Linlang had delivered the letter to those old foxes, she had naturally been observing their movements. So she naturally knew that these people had sent people to observe her, and she even knew who they were. In this way, it would be strange if the people monitoring her could find anything amiss.
As for Prince Qinghe, he hadn't done anything, so even if he was being monitored, he wasn't afraid. Naturally, those monitoring him couldn't detect anything amiss. That's why those old foxes observed Linlang for over a year and couldn't see anything.
Of course, those people didn't give up and continued to observe, just like how they observed Grandma Jiang for a year and didn't find anything wrong with her, but continued to observe until they finally discovered something was wrong.
Now that they had confirmed that Granny Jiang did indeed have special abilities, these people decided to take action and snatch her back to their own residence (more precisely, to their suburban estate, because they dared not keep such a dangerous person in their own home, lest she kill their entire family one day). They planned to use Granny Jiang's brainwashing abilities to do their bidding.
Although they didn't know that Granny Jiang could kill people in addition to brainwashing, these people were all old foxes and would naturally be wary of this. So they planned to put the people far away in the manor, thinking that everything would be fine. But they didn't expect that Granny Jiang could kill people remotely. After all, even the most cunning people didn't expect that one person's ability could be so strong. So the first person to try something new will definitely suffer.
The first person to do this was the Second Minister of the Cabinet.
He did this for no other reason than to get Grandma Jiang to brainwash the emperor and the prime minister, to make the prime minister make a mistake, and to make the emperor like him more, so that he could become the prime minister.
It's no wonder he did it this way. The Grand Secretary isn't that old, just over fifty, even younger than him, and he's incredibly capable. If things continue like this, even if he retires, he won't become the Grand Secretary. He's so close to becoming the Grand Secretary, but he can't. Who could accept that?
Previously, he had no choice but to accept it and obediently serve as the second-in-command. Now, with someone like Granny Jiang, he has hope. Therefore, as soon as he confirmed Granny Jiang's capabilities, he planned to make his move against her. (End of Chapter)
