Chapter 337 Substitute
The eyes of the maid and the young man burst out with light, and the slave status was eliminated? This is something they never dreamed of.

"Master, please ask whatever you want. As long as we know everything we know, we will tell you everything." The two of them said at the same time.

Shen Jia nodded, "Let me ask you, after the siege of Prince Jin's palace, how is Prince Jin different from before?"

The maid and the boy were stunned for a moment, and then began to think about it seriously.

After a while, the maid glanced at Shen Jia timidly: "Prince Jin used to drink soup first and then eat, and he liked to eat coriander. Since the palace was besieged, he ate first and then drank soup, and even picked out all the coriander." come out."

Shen Jia nodded secretly. No matter how much a person imitates others, his living habits still follow his own wishes subconsciously.

She looked at the boy again, who scratched his head and said honestly: "When I was pouring tea for King Jin, I found that there was a black mole the size of millet on the back of King Jin's left hand."

"Okay! Very good! You go pack your things now and leave here with me." Shen Jia smiled.

After Shen Jia finished speaking, she wrote a note for Xiaobai to bring to Xiao Yichen.

The four of them moved very quickly and finished cleaning up in a moment.

Shen Jia took them to Xiao Yichen's small courtyard and asked Jiang Zelin to help them eliminate their slave status. He also gave the maid and the boy one hundred taels of silver each as a reward.

Luo Yue and Qing Yu expressed their intention to follow Shen Jia, so Shen Jia arranged Luo Yue to stay in Yunshang Pavilion, while Qing Yu went to Zuixian Pavilion to study and open a restaurant elsewhere in the future.

After making arrangements for them, she took a carriage back home.

After Xiao Yichen received Shen Jia's letter, he hurried to the Protector's Mansion.

The two met at the gate of the Protector's Mansion.

"Jiajia, what happened?" The letter Shen Jia wrote to Xiao Yichen only said the words "Come to the Protector's Mansion quickly", so Xiao Yichen asked this question.

"A Chen, I suspect that King Jin is fake!" Shen Jia said in Xiao Yichen's ear.

Shen Jia's words undoubtedly aroused a thousand waves in Xiao Yichen's heart. If this sentence was said from other people's mouth, he would definitely sneer at it, but if it was said from Shen Jia's mouth, it must be true.

Then he remembered that day in the Jinluan Palace, Jiang Shoufu confessed his crime without any excuse, and King Jin only yelled a few words. More importantly, Concubine Shu committed suicide that day, with the purpose of arousing the emperor's feelings for her. Out of pity, King Jin was allowed to enter the palace to observe mourning for three days. Now that I think about it, perhaps the purpose of Concubine Shu's suicide was to give King Jin a few more days.

Xiao Yichen is extremely smart, and he figured out the problem that he couldn't figure out before.

Shen Jia asked the servant to invite Ling Yunsu to the study. Some things would be clearer if he asked him.

The three of them sat down in the study, and Shen Jia asked, "Brother Ling, how much do you know about the art of disguise?"

Ling Yunsu shook his head, "I once heard my parents say that the human skin masks in the world are the most exquisite. They can be so fake that they look real. With the hairstyle, movements, voice and eyes, very few people can spot them.

Another way is to disguise the medicine and make it look like the real thing. However, no matter how good the disguise is, it will still show flaws in front of familiar people. There are too many habits and details, and the slightest difference can arouse suspicion. "

"In the past few days, I always feel that I have overlooked something. I always feel that Jiang Shoufu's confession was too smooth. After thinking about it, I can't think of the reason, so I went to Prince Jin's Mansion today..." Shen Jia told Xiao Yichen and Ling Yun all what Luo Yue and the others had said. Sober.

"So, the current King Jin should be fake." Ling Yunsu said.

A cold light flashed in Xiao Yichen's eyes, "Let's go to the imperial mausoleum now to confirm. If King Jin guarding the imperial mausoleum is fake, then where is he really? What on earth does he want to do?"

"It is urgent to confirm King Jin's identity. Let's leave now." After Shen Jia finished speaking, he walked out first.

Xiao Yichen followed her, Ling Yunsu was a little hesitant. When Xiao Yichen saw this, he couldn't help but call him: "Master Ling, hurry up and follow, Jiajia has already gone far." Ling Yunsu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: he is a majestic emperor. Grandson, is it really okay to be so familiar with yourself?

But he didn't refuse in the end and quickly chased after her.

When Xiao Yichen saw this, the corners of his lips raised slightly.

When Shen Zhuoyun saw Shen Jia coming back and hurriedly going out, he hurriedly asked why. Shen Jia briefly told him the situation in a low voice.

After hearing this, Shen Zhuoyun only told them a few words to pay attention to their safety.

Ling Yunsu was sitting in Xiao Yichen's carriage, and both of them turned their heads and ignored each other.

The matter was urgent, the coachman cracked his whip to make the carriage run very fast, and there was silence in the carriage.

after a long time.

"Master Ling"

"His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson"

"Speak first." The two said in unison, then looked at each other and smiled.

it is more than words.

The imperial mausoleum is more than an hour's journey from the capital.

It was already noon when the three of them arrived at the imperial mausoleum.

The emperor punished King Qi and King Jin to guard the imperial mausoleum with their families instead of being exiled. The main reason was to keep them under his nose for easy surveillance.

If they were exiled to Lingnan or Northern Xinjiang, they would be beyond reach if something happened to them.

In fact, the conditions for them to guard the imperial mausoleum are not difficult. At least they have a separate small courtyard and monthly money, which is much better than that of ordinary people.

Of course, if compared with the previous days when he was surrounded by slaves and well-dressed and well-fed, it would be like heaven and earth. Here, in addition to doing their own laundry and cooking, they also have to stay away from the imperial mausoleum.

King Jin was only slightly surprised at the arrival of Shen Jia and the others and then let them in with a calm face.

"Who are you?" Xiao Yichen asked coldly.

A sarcastic smile appeared on King Jin's lips: "What? The emperor's grandson doesn't even recognize his own uncle?"

Xiao Yichen glanced at him lightly: "You are not Xiao Hongbin. The real Xiao Hongbin has fled the capital, and you are just his substitute. If you don't want to suffer, just tell the truth about who you are. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

"Ha! Xiao Yichen, I am not Xiao Hongbin? Did you see with your eyes that I am not Xiao Hongbin? I have been demoted to a commoner by my father. I am no longer qualified to fight for power. It has no influence on you. Why are you still here? Come to question me? Slander me? Humiliate me?" King Jin pointed at himself, looking like he was wronged.

One of his concubines came forward and gave a different theory: "That is, don't we know whether he is the prince? Don't we even know our husband? What a big joke!"

Another concubine also said: "Even if our prince is demoted, he is still the emperor's son. You come here to humiliate people without any basis. Do you still have ancestral etiquette in your eyes?..."

Xiao Yichen was too lazy to listen to their nonsense and raised his hand to stop them from talking: "The real Xiao Hongbin has no moles on the back of his hands. He likes to eat coriander, drink soup before eating, and walk with his right foot first. No matter how a person changes, his living habits cannot be changed. of……"

Shen Jia glanced at the people in the room. King Jin's concubines and concubines were all here. But Princess Jin and King Jin's legitimate son didn't show up, so they must have known the truth for a long time.
