Chapter 559: Chapter 559: The Jiang Family Needs Seventh Miss

Jiang Mubai casually picked up a stack of letter paper and handed it to him.

“I’ve seen it.” Jiang Ruobai glanced at it and quickly looked away.

“Oh? It seems that this Seventh Sister is indeed clever.” Jiang Mubai quickly realized that Jiang Ning had found out about Mu Jian almost at the same time as him.

That was quite rare.

Although Jiang Ning was in the palace and seemed more convenient, she was in a difficult situation now and could not move freely in and out of the East Palace. The only person she could rely on was Gucheng.

As for Gucheng, his martial arts skills were high and he was loyal, but his mind was not flexible enough.

He was good enough to be an Imperial Guard, but not quite enough to be an assistant. freёnovelkiss.com

Under such circumstances, she was still able to accurately and quickly find out the real culprit, proving that she was smart and resourceful.

Jiang Mubai couldn’t help but feel both envious and jealous of his brother.

“How come such a good girl didn’t come out of my wife’s belly?”

“Do you have any shame as a big brother? Taking advantage of your brother?” Jiang Ruobai didn’t get angry and calmly drank from his wine cup, “I don’t know who just said that a niece is the same as a daughter.”

“That’s true.” Jiang Mubai laughed, “Second child, I have a feeling.”

“Hmm?”

“Perhaps in the future, our entire Jiang Family will have to rely on Seventh Miss.”

“That’s not impossible.” Jiang Ruobai laughed, “The two of us are getting older. There are some good male descendants in the family, but if you talk about great achievements, there may not be any.”

He put down his wine cup and nodded towards the letter: “What’s the background of this Mu Jian?”

General Jiang Mubai must have found out more than Jiang Ning.

Jiang Mubai happily took a sip of wine, savored it for a moment, and then said, “This young man has been following the Crown Prince since he was seven or eight years old and is the Crown Prince’s sparring partner.”

As a prince, Li Hongyuan studied and practiced martial arts since he was a child. There were tutors and sparring partners.

Of course, not everyone could serve as these tutors and sparring partners.

They all had to be from prestigious families.

Jiang Ruobai said, “I know this already. Tell me something useful.”

“There’s not much to say, this Mu Jian’s background is very simple, he is the nephew of Concubine Jin’s maternal family.”

It was too common for someone from one’s maternal family to be sent to serve as the prince’s sparring partner.

Everyone knew how to promote their own family.

This was beneficial to both parties.

Nephews from one’s own family could be trusted, and their disposition was clear. They would also be loyal to the prince and could assist him in the future.

Jiang Ruobai frowned, “In that case, this Mu Jian might not betray the Crown Prince. Is there anyone else worth betraying his master of ten years? Can you find anything else?”

Jiang Mubai shook his head slightly, “Mu Jian is the child of Concubine Jin’s maternal relatives. Both his parents have passed away, and he lives alone in the capital without a wife. Besides following the Crown Prince, he doesn’t have any other contacts or relationships. From every angle, he doesn’t seem like someone who would betray the Crown Prince and harm Concubine Jin.”

Jiang Ruobai smiled faintly, “A river too pure gives no fish. Often, the simpler a person seems, the more suspicious they are. As the commander of the Right Imperial Guards in the East Palace, can he be that simple?”

“I understand what you’re saying, and I’m still investigating. There’s no hurry for this matter.”

“Just now I saw Seventh Sister, and she thinks that if Mu Jian didn’t betray the Crown Prince?” Jiang Ruobai slowly asked, “What if the Crown Prince himself is the mastermind behind the plot against Concubine Jin?”
