Chapter 234: Duan Mansion Sets a Trap
In Jinglin Division, Guan Changfeng was very clear about what Feng Dequan was able to find out, because a lot of it was originally based on information obtained from their Jinglin Division.
Therefore, Guan Changfeng had already predicted Xuanyi's next move.
According to the information he had previously communicated with Tang Yuwei, except for Grand Tutor Duan and a few relatives who were in office, all other servants in the Duan Mansion had long been replaced by people from their Jinglin Division.
One reason was to protect the Duan family, and the other was to learn about Xuanyi's movements from Feng Dequan.
If the situation is extremely urgent, they will have to fight to the death to save the lives of Master Duan and others.
The Crown Princess Duan Fangya, who was far away in Sand City, had also been worried about the Duan family's affairs these days.
I guess he is a relative, he can always sense what's happening.
He asked Yuwen Jin worriedly, "Your Highness, General Tang has been in Rong Country for a few days, but what has he found out?"
Yuwen Jin is currently reviewing the reports submitted by Tong County in recent days, hoping that the people's livelihood in Tong County can be improved as soon as possible, so as to benefit the surrounding towns. This is also one of the reasons why he is stationed in Shacheng.
As for the Crown Princess's concerns, he believed Tang Yuwei, "The internal situation of Rong State is more complicated than we thought before, and the separatist forces of the ministers are serious. It will take some time to find out who Xuanyi conspired with in the first place!"
"It will take some time?" Duan Fangya looked calm on the surface, but she was still worried in her heart. "But His Highness Xuanyi hasn't received a reply from Minister Feng for a long time, nor has he seen us return. He must be suspicious! As time goes on, His Highness Xuanyi will find out sooner or later!"
Yu Wenjin kept writing and replied calmly, "Guan Changfeng has made arrangements. Crown Princess, don't worry!"
"Your Highness, how can I not worry?" Duan Fangya made the tea and placed the cup steadily on Yuwen Jin's desk.
She watched Yu Wenjin concentrating on the pile of reports, and the words in her heart surged up but she swallowed them back, "Your Highness, I am a little tired, do you want to go out for a walk?"
"Go ahead!" Yu Wenjin raised his head and said with a smile, "The Crown Princess doesn't have to accompany you all the time!"
Duan Fangya responded, turned around and walked out of the tent with a smile. Without the help of her maid, she came to a secluded mountainside alone. The vast poplar forest here became one of the few places for her to meditate in recent days.
After a while, a pigeon fluttered and landed on a low branch. Duan Fangya removed the wooden pole from the pigeon's feet and pulled out a piece of paper from it.
That was exactly what Xue Qingqing brought from Ai Guan.
Xue Qingqing came to Shacheng alone that day to ask for an audience with Yuwen Bo. Afterwards, she diligently presented Duan Fangya with some specialties brought from Jingwei to comfort Duan Fangya's worries about home.
Duan Fangya naturally understood that Xue Qingqing was definitely not simply trying to please her, so she met her with her own purpose.
The original intention was just to let the Crown Princess say a few good words in front of the Crown Prince so that Xue Qingqing could successfully follow Yuwen Bo. The Crown Princess naturally agreed, but she also had a request, which was that Xue Qingqing told her all the movements of the escort team.
Seeing the news about Yangyang's arrest on the note, Duan Fangya immediately rolled up the note and waited for another pigeon flying to Jingwei to come and pass the news back to Master Duan.
In the past, Duan Fangya also sent messages in this way. At that time, the guards guarding outside the Duan Mansion were either the prince's men or Guan Changfeng's men, so naturally there would be no problems.
But what Duan Fangya didn't know was that the news she sent back today would most likely fall into Feng Dequan's hands.
After receiving Xuan Yi's order, Feng Dequan immediately sent people in plain clothes to surround all the entrances to Duan Mansion. In order to put pressure on Duan Mansion, he also sent people into the mansion from time to time under various names to give suggestions.
Since there is no sufficient reason to attack the Duan Mansion now, Feng Dequan can only act this way!
Just when Feng Dequan was getting anxious and thinking that this approach was not having much effect, a guard brought him a note.
After unfolding the note, it can be said that God is helping the Feng family.
Feng Dequan jumped on his horse and rushed to the palace with the note without stopping, so as to meet Her Highness Xuanyi as soon as possible.
"Your Highness, I have something important to report!" Feng Dequan panted and presented the note in his hand through the curtain.
The eunuch took it and turned around to hand it to Xuanyi. Xuanyi unfolded the note doubtfully, with surprise and joy on her face. She didn't expect that the secret that had been untraceable for so many years would be revealed to the world because of a piece of paper. "Hahaha! What a substitution! It's hidden so deeply!"
Feng Dequan also said happily, "Your Highness, the Duan family actually let a princess from the Rong Kingdom become the daughter of our Left Prime Minister. They have ulterior motives and are collaborating with the enemy and selling out their country. Now, it will be a natural thing for us to capture the entire Duan family."
"Immediately convey my intention to arrest the entire Duan family. Protect the Master well, I will personally try him!"
Feng Dequan received the order and said, "I obey your command!" Then he walked out of the hall in a triumphant manner.
Xuanyi couldn't stop looking at the note in her hand, confirming again that the information inside was what she understood.
Further analysis shows that if Xue Yangyang is a princess, then Jia is actually in an affair with King Rong, and the agreement hidden in Jia's dowry must be related to why Jia went to Rong and became King Rong's woman. Xue Zuo Xiang is dead, and the only ones who know the truth now are the Queen Mother and the Duan family.
Now, as long as we can get the location of the agreement from Master Duan, all the truth will be revealed!
The day that shameful agreement was announced was the day the Queen Mother lost the support of the people, the day Your Majesty was found unworthy of the position, and the day she ascended the throne she had always dreamed of.
"Someone come here!" Xuanyi's face flushed, she couldn't believe that hope came so quickly.
"Your Highness, I am here!"
"Have them work on the clothes for our grand ceremony as soon as possible, and make sure they are finished within this month!"
The eunuch hesitated for a moment, but still said in a fearful tone, "Your Highness, Xue Duanhua said last time that the craftsmanship of this robe is very complicated and it will take a year or so to make it!"
"A year or half? I think he has forgotten who rescued him from the purgatory of Jinglinwei! Tell him that if he can't finish it within this month, he won't see the sun next month!"
After Xue Duanhua was caught by Guan Changfeng for selling royal fabrics privately, he was taken back to the Jinglin Division for protection.
But after the prince left, His Royal Highness Xuanyi kept asking Jinglinsi to do things for him in various names. Guan Changfeng had to make certain concessions in the constant negotiations, which led to Xue Duanhua being brought into the imperial city by Xuanyi. However, with Xue Duanhua's poor craftsmanship, people always felt that he was at risk of losing his head.
The eunuch immediately replied, "Yes, Your Highness! I will send someone to tell him right away!"
