Chapter 403: Changes in the State of Chu

The waiter who didn't know how he answered, after he came back to his senses again, she and Wen Fei had already left the silk shop, and the other party was looking at Jun Jiuning with a worried look on his face.

Jun Jiuning pulled Wen Fei to a place where no one was, frowned, and said in a serious tone: "Wen Fei, tell the truth, what is the situation in Chu State?! Why did the Su family's affairs come out at this time?!"

Wen Fei sighed: "I didn't want to tell you what I originally wanted to tell you. You can't go back now, so why bother asking? Moreover, King Ning and Su Qing are already defeated, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really doesn't need me anymore."

Jun Jiuning glared at him, very dissatisfied with Wen Fei's concealment attitude: "If you don't want to tell me, I'll ask Mu Yun! If you don't want to say it, then naturally someone will say it."

As he said that, Jun Jiuning turned around angrily and wanted to go to Mu's mansion.

Although she didn't know what happened to Mu Yun and Wei Yulan after they escaped yesterday, and whether they had escaped or not.

But if she wants to find Mu Yun, she can only go to Mu Mansion.

After hearing Jun Jiuning say this, Wen Fei's face turned dark. He quickly caught up with Jun Jiuning and pulled Jun Jiuning's arm to prevent her from leaving: "Wait! Alas! I'll tell you, okay?"

Jun Jiuning turned his head and said, "Explain truthfully!"

Wen Fei's expression changed a few times, and then he revealed the situation in Chu State.

It is true that the rebellion of King Ning was suppressed. It is true that Jun Qingli and Emperor Wen had already cleaned up the power in the palace, but the gap between the father and son is also true.

When Jun Jiuning left Chu, he only knew that the rebellion of King Ning had a lot to do with his greed for military pay, but Jun Jiuning ignored Su Qing's role.

After hearing Su Qing's words, although she was moved, she did not believe the other party in full.

Jun Jiuning still favored Emperor Wen from the bottom of his heart. After all, Su Qing experienced family changes when she was young. Maybe her memory was deviated. Therefore, facing Emperor Wen and the Chu court, it can be humanly interfered with!

Moreover, Mu Yun was also making trouble. Jun Jiuning thought that Su Qing was Mu Yun's person, so he didn't dare to believe her.

But after she had already gone to Liang State, what she didn't know was that the Su family was destroyed and the incident was revealed.

The death of the Su family and his wife did not die of depression, but was poisoned. Moreover, Su Youtong's death was also because during her pregnancy, Emperor Wen asked someone to do a lot of tricks in her diet, which made her die of dyspawn.

Emperor Wen had known for a long time that Su Youtong was pregnant with a male child, and the Su family also knew about it.

He felt that the Su family had a ill-thinking plot, and intended to get rid of Emperor Wen, who was firmly sitting on the throne after Su Youtong's womb, and let Jun Qingli ascend the throne and use the emperor to command the princes.

So he took the initiative first. After Su Youtong died of difficult labor, he quickly weakened the Su family, stripped away all the real power of the Su family officials, forced them to deport them, and finally designed to destroy the Su family's entire family!

This time, Su Qing found many witnesses from that year: Emperor Wen's secret guard who attacked the Su family, the nanny who poisoned Su Youtong secretly framed the Su family and the retired court officials.

Taking advantage of the defeat of Ning Wang, Su Qing struggled to spread the matter to the world. Although the court tried its best to block the news and pursued the escaped King Ning and Su Qing, these rumors were still circulating among the people.

At this time, a cloth merchant emerged from somewhere, claiming that he had found the secret of the Su family weaving Liuyunsha, and used this method to weave cloud satin that was very similar to Liuyunsha, and sold it in large quantities.

The Chu court was determined to ban the circulation of cloud-light satin, but the cloth merchants had superb methods. Cloud-light satin was a product that combined the flowing cloud yarn and ordinary silk weaving methods. Although it was much more difficult than making ordinary silk satin, because of its high price, many embroidery workshops were willing to learn this weaving method.

Therefore, even though the Chu court explicitly prohibited the embroidery shops from being able to produce cloud-light satin, cloud-light satin was always produced in the dark. Moreover, because no one in the Chu State dared to use it, the fabric was sold from Chu State to various countries, and this disgraceful rumor of Chu State was also taken to various places with cloud-light satin.

After hearing this, Jun Jiuning's eyebrows were almost twisted into the word "chuan", and his face was so gloomy that it seemed that water could drip into it.

She looked at Wen Fei, and her voice became a little hoarse: "Do you think what Su Qing said is true?"

For some reason, Wen Fei suddenly remembered a figure burned on the fire in his memory.

He has never been able to tell the difference between true and false, false and true. At this time, whether it is seen with his own eyes or heard with his own ears, he may have been distorted under the influence of a person with a heart, so he doesn't know how to answer Jun Jiuning's question.

Because Wen Fei knows one truth well: sometimes, the truth is often more disgusting than the surface you see.

Wen Fei had to shake his head at Jun Jiuning: "Although I don't know the truth about this, Su Qing and King Ning's actions did have a significant impact on Chu State. Moreover, this impact is not great for the emperor. When the prince's palace faces the people, the pressure is the greatest."

It was because Jun Jiuning knew the pros and cons of this matter that he did not dare to investigate the matter at will.

Because Su Youtong fought to the death and gave birth to Jun Qingli, and once this matter was widely publicized, the people would inevitably concentrate their firepower on Jun Qingli: If the Su family had no worries and suffered the consequences, then Jun Qingli would be covered with blood of the criminals. If the Su family was in vain, then Emperor Wen would be unpardoned. It was just because of his own conjecture that the whole family of loyal ministers who helped him ascend the throne, and he also personally killed his wife's life, making Jun Qingli and Jun Jiuning become motherless children since childhood.

At that time, if those who are interested in the court fan the flames, the Chu court will inevitably be divided into two factions: one is respected by the Chu royal family and always loyal to the emperor, believing that if Jun Qingli helps the thief speak, it will be a traitor. The other faction will think that Emperor Wen is unkind and unrighteous and does not deserve to be the monarch, and will force Emperor Wen to give way to Jun Qingli, and may even force him to repent to the Su family.

It will definitely be difficult for Jun Qingli to be sandwiched in it. And the more this happens, all forces that are making trouble among the people will spring up like mushrooms after a rain.

Jun Jiuning felt very sorry for Jun Qingli when he thought about it.

But she did not forget Mu Yun, the culprit who helped King Ning plan this matter.

Jun Jiuning felt that relying solely on King Ning and Su Qing would probably not be enough to achieve this. Someone must have been fueling the fire behind the scenes, trying to take the opportunity to split Chu State and defeat Emperor Wen and Jun Qingli!

But didn’t Mu Yun agree to her and would not interfere in the affairs of Chu again?!
