Chapter 890 Chapter 890
Jin Yunfan was too embarrassed to ride on horseback, so he got on the carriage with Jin Mo, feeling anxious all the way. "In the past few days, I have not gone to Prince An's mansion to apologize, thinking that I would have a backbone after waiting for my father's letter. But now that I have been summoned suddenly, I can't avoid it."
Jin Mo whispered to comfort him, "Everyone knows your difficulties, young master. Now that the emperor has spoken, I believe they will not make it too difficult for you."
Even if it's difficult, so what?
Jin Yunfan felt exhausted and leaned against the wall of the carriage. The bumpy carriage and the cold wind that kept blowing in through the curtains reminded him that it was all the fault of his lewd and bold sister. If he couldn't write two golden characters with one stroke, he should apologize with a hunched back.
Liu Huan, the prince of Prince An's Mansion, sent his attendants and the servants of the prefect of Jingzhao to the door. His words were brief and to the point, inviting Master Jin to go to Prince An's Mansion.
It was already getting dark, and Jin Yunfan held his stomach, which had not yet eaten, and felt a piercing pain.
An ominous premonition rose faintly from behind.
Jin Yunfan and Jin Mo whispered, "Besides the dead girl Qiuying who was detained that day, were there any others left out?"
"No, my lord."
After a pause, he said, "Meng Xiaoxing, Meng Xiaoxing has disappeared."
Jin Yunfan bit his back teeth until they were broken. "This Meng Xiaoxing was Qiao Wan's subordinate in the past. I thought Qiao Wan was dead, and there must be no one capable by Fu Yun's side, so it would be impossible to make a comeback. I never thought that this Meng Xiaoxing..."
Jin Mo swallowed his saliva and said, "Master, we didn't know anything about this matter. You must not take all the blame. After all, our eldest daughter lost her innocence and the princess died. All this is pitiful for our Jin family."
"Ugh!"
Jin Yunfan sighed, "I know that, but Uncle Mo, neither you nor I have eyes or brains. If that damn girl Qiuying hadn't provoked anyone, no one would have thrown the dirty water of this conspiracy at the Jin Mansion."
Because she was powerless to save the situation, Princess Hong'an sacrificed her own life to preserve her only bloodline.
Jin Mo was slightly stunned. "Master, you must not panic and lose your composure. Meng Xiaoxing may not be your helper."
Ah!
It would be hard to fool even a dog with such words!
When they arrived at Prince An's Mansion, someone was already waiting there. As soon as Jin Yunfan got off the car, they came to lead the way. They didn't say much. The cold wind was getting stronger, and Jin Yunfan almost fell down several times due to the slippery steps. It was Jin Mo who was quick to catch him.
He hurried to Fuyuezhai and found the gate ajar. After the visitor reported something, footsteps were heard inside the courtyard.
"Da Lang, come in and talk."
Liu Huan, the prince of Prince An's Mansion, came to welcome him in person. He was supposed to keep vigil over Prince An's body, but because of this matter, after reporting to the clan, he let his second brother take his place.
The Prince An’s Mansion will never let this matter go peacefully.
Jin Yunfan perked up and bowed, "It's Yunfan's fault that you troubled the prince to come and greet us personally."
"After all, we are all family, so many things can be discussed behind closed doors."
Jin Yunfan sighed, then nodded dejectedly, "What a misfortune for our family!"
Liu Huan took him to the main room of Fuyuezhai, which was the old prince's study. It was a secluded and quiet place, perfect for talking about things.
"I asked Dalang to come here today because I wanted to make things clear. I'm afraid you, Dalang, have also been kept in the dark about this matter."
"Your Highness, please feel free to speak. To be honest, I have been extremely stressed out these past two days. Things have been happening one after another and I am overwhelmed. Otherwise, I should have come to pay my respects to the old princess and apologize, and to decorate the Prince An's mansion with red and colorful decorations—"
After all, such obscene things were done in the former residence of Princess Langwu.
"No hurry, let's go in first. Lord He, Prince Yong, Duke Zhenguo, the Crown Prince, and Silang are all here. They are all well-known families. Let's sit together and talk it out."
Hey!
Now everyone is here.
When Jin Yunfan heard that the battle was not small, he stopped in his tracks and said, "It is natural for Prince Yong to come, but why is it related to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion?"
Liu Huan sighed, "You don't know, Dalang, someone instructed us to shout that day that the fourth young master's wife of the Pei family was having sex with a man outside the family, and just now they led the family members to Yingxue Pavilion. This matter... I'm afraid it was aimed at the fourth young master's wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."
Jin Yunfan was slightly stunned, "Is the Fourth Young Master's wife okay?"
Liu Huan shook his head, "It's okay."
The door was right in front of him. Even if Jin Yunfan didn't want to deal with it, he had to step through it. Inside the room, besides the Duke of Zhenguo Pei Jian, there was also Prince of Yong He Jiang sitting on the upper seat. The study was not a small place for receiving guests, but it was now packed with people.
When they saw him enter, people of their peers stood up and greeted him.
Except for Prince Yong..., he had gauze wrapped on his head, had a cold face, and his eyes were like poisoned arrows, as if he wanted to stab Jin Yunfan in front of him to death.
Jin Yunfan saw the look in He Jiang's eyes, but he had to go up and salute Pei Jian and He Jiang one by one.
Pei Jian was as gentle and polite as ever.
He personally helped Jin Yunfan, who was bowing, up and said, "I heard the sad news about the princess. Please accept my condolences."
Jin Yunfan lowered his eyes, "Mother was furious, and it was the younger generation's improper care that caused the disaster."
He Jiang was standing nearby, laughing non-stop, "Young Master, please stop apologizing for your mother. If she hadn't died, Jin Fuyun would have been the one to die today!"
Jin Yunfan was slightly startled. After hearing this, he raised his head and said righteously, "Why do you say that, Prince? Fuyun is a woman who values her reputation the most. She is the one who is hurt the most after this incident..."
"fart!"
He Jiang stood up, clenched his fist and punched Jin Yunfan in the face.
"Oh, Prince, you can't do that!"
Pei Chen was right in front of him and immediately stood up to stop him. Liu Huan and Pei An also followed him forward, but He Jiang was extremely angry and had been holding back his rage. This pounce was more than Jin Yunfan, who had not rested well for several days, could resist.
He Jiang’s punch was heavy and fast.
Jin Yunfan was knocked so hard that he staggered two steps and fell to the ground. He Jiang pushed Pei Chen away and sat on Jin Yunfan, preparing to slap him left and right.
He Wenhan and Pei An quickly grabbed his hands and dragged him up, but He Jiang's legs moved very fast and he kicked Jin Yunfan three or five times in the abdomen and thighs.
"Please calm down, Prince. The eldest son is also innocent."
This was what Pei An said, a rare fair remark. Liu Huan and Pei Chen quickly helped Jin Yunfan up. This punch made Jin Yunfan's mouth and nose bleed. Liu Huan had to send someone to get a towel and hot water to help Jin Yunfan wash the nosebleed, while Pei Jian had to comfort He Jiang with a few words.
He Jiang was furious, pointing at Jin Yunfan and saying without thinking, "If it wasn't for the scheme of that vicious woman, how could there be such a scandal now? My Lord, you don't know that my identity is awkward and my position is unstable. I have to be careful and cautious in everything I say and do!"
