Chapter 167 Please let me go
"Okay, I lied to you."
Jiang Hao's prank was over, and he told Chen Chuan his real purpose for looking for him.
She had originally planned to go to the black market again to find out about the deposed crown prince. Since she ran into him on the street, if he knew about it, she wouldn't have to go climbing the mountain again.
Chen Chuan was frightened by her so much that he almost had a heart attack. His appetite dropped drastically, mainly because he was too full and could not eat much more.
"Girl, please don't scare me."
He is naturally timid and cannot stand being frightened.
"what's your name?"
Jiang Hao asked.
What's the point of asking the name?
Chen Chuan was suspicious, but seeing Jiang Hao looking at him dimly, he did not dare to lie: "Erdong Chen, the Chuan of legend, Chen Chuan."
Jiang Hao nodded, but he didn't suspect that he was just making up a name to fool her, so he asked, "Since you are good at medicine, fortune-telling, and know the secrets of the royal family, let me ask you, do you know about the abolition of the crown prince eighteen years ago?"
When Chen Chuan heard the words "deposed crown prince", he forgot to refute, because he actually didn't know any medical skills.
Chen Chuan immediately cried and begged, "Didn't you agree not to scare me? Why are you asking this?"
Deposing the crown prince, this is a taboo topic.
“It seems you really do know.”
Chen Chuan covered his mouth instantly.
Then, he wanted to slip away again...
Jiang Hao grabbed him back and sat him on a stool. He sealed his acupuncture points, took out a small bottle, and threatened him, "Tell me. I won't tell anyone else. What can't I say? But if you don't say it, there's no point in keeping you. I might as well let you go and keep Master Xie company."
"Don't……"
Chen Chuan couldn't run away, nor could he win the fight. What else could he do but surrender?
Hey!
Society is evil!
"Actually, the 'Deposed Crown Prince' incident caused a big stir back then, but a gag order was issued afterwards, and some people were killed. As time went on, it became a taboo."
Chen Chuan was only in his early twenties, and he was still very young when the crown prince was deposed, but he grew up in the largest Taoist temple in Kyoto, and had a talkative uncle by his side, so he knew a little about the matter.
However, he didn't understand why someone in a place like Qingchuan County would ask about the "deposed crown prince."
Although I didn't understand, now that I had started talking about it, I didn't hide it anymore.
"It is said that it was caused by the taxation of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Prefectures, and then the witchcraft was brought up, and the emperor was furious."
Those who embezzled money can be given a chance to repent, but those who attempted to kill their father and usurp the throne through sorcery, it is already a mercy from the emperor to simply depose the crown prince.
In the following three years, many stubborn people wrote letters to appeal for the deposed prince, but in the end there was only one result: they angered the emperor again and ended up being beheaded.
Later, as time went by, no one mentioned it anymore.
But three years ago, the maternal family of the deposed crown prince was reinstated.
Even so, that’s all.
Chen Chuan felt a little disappointed, then he bowed to Jiang Hao and said, "Girl, I've told you everything I know, please let me go."
He was really scared.
Jiang Hao was a little confused, but she caught one piece of news - the deposed prince was still alive.
"What about his family?"
Chen Chuan frowned and sighed repeatedly in his heart: "Dead, all dead."
There were more than twenty lives lost in the Prince’s Mansion, including several children, without exception.
I don’t know what the situation is like now that the deposed prince is imprisoned in the abandoned prince’s mansion after so many years.
Since the descendants of the deposed crown prince are all dead, but Jiang Huaiqing said that the deposed crown prince is related to her...
