Chapter 157 Thinking
After Jiang Hao met Jiang Huaiqing and his wife, he kept thinking over and over again about the three words Jiang Huaiqing told him - depose the crown prince.
The first time she saw the words "deposed crown prince" was in the diary in Lu Zhan's secret room, which recorded the Lu family's participation in the impeachment of the deposed crown prince eighteen years ago.
As the new generation of the Lu family, for the development of the entire Lu family, even though Lu Zhan had been "exiled" to Qingchuan County by his grandfather Lu Tingguang, he still did his best for the family.
However, there were only a few entries in Lu Zhan's diary, and the specific process was unknown. Jiang Hao repeatedly recalled the contents of the book she had traveled through, and the words "abandoned prince" were not mentioned in the book, at least not in the part she had read.
Therefore, she was more confused about the three words "deposed crown prince".
However, the crown prince is the future heir to the throne. Once he is established, he cannot be easily deposed unless he has committed a particularly serious fault. Since the crown prince was deposed, he must have done something extremely treasonous, which angered the emperor and was not tolerated by all officials.
Jiang Huaiqing kept saying that she was the daughter of a traitor, and the former crown prince was deposed. Could it be that the original body was related to the deposed crown prince? Or even, were they father and daughter?
But if this is true, the prince committed a heinous crime and must have been under strict guard, with his entire family imprisoned. How could his original body have been sent out so easily and picked up by Jiang Huaiqing?
If it is really that simple, those who are doing the job are too lax, and the imperial power seems to be treated too triflingly.
There must be something she doesn't know.
No, to be precise, apart from the speculation that her original body might be related to the deposed crown prince, Jiang Hao knew nothing about anything.
Jiang Hao stroked the jade pendant, and in the sunlight, he discovered that the carving on the jade pendant looked like a word.
But after watching it again and again, it doesn’t look like it.
Before I could understand, Hongxiu came with new products.
"Girl, I made the milk tea according to your request."
Hongxiu is smart and deft. After Jiang Hao told her the steps to make pearl milk tea, she tried a few times and actually made it: "Try it and see if it tastes like this. The milk is very fresh, squeezed by Tianniu."
Tianniu, a little girl who herds cattle in the village.
The pearls in the milk tea are made from tapioca flour and added with brown sugar, so each one is round.
Fry the tea leaves with cane sugar until they turn into a caramel color, then add milk and boil, filter, and add pearls.
Jiang Hao put away the jade pendant, took a sip, and the taste was... so-so.
"how?"
"Hmm... not bad."
Hongxiu was delighted when she heard that, but the next moment she heard Jiang Hao say, "No need to do it anymore, drinking tea is also good."
After all, it still lacks some flavor.
"Slave, let me study it further."
Hongxiu retreated somewhat frustrated. Jiang Hao took another sip and continued to think about things.
Since her original identity was so embarrassing, she naturally couldn't ask Xu Xing and others about the abandoned prince, so as not to be exposed. Therefore, she had to go to the black market.
"Is Miss Jiang at home?"
Jiang Hao heard a sound coming from outside the yard, and then put away the jade pendant. Hong Xiu had already hurried out to meet him.
Not long after, Hongxiu ran back and said in a low voice, "Miss, it's someone from the Xie Mansion."
"Thank you?"
Jiang Hao was stunned: "What are the people from Xie Mansion doing here? Their young master is not here."
"Miss Jiang."
The voice just now reached Jiang Hao's ears again, and then he saw an old woman coming in, kneeling down in front of Jiang Hao, crying: "Our young master is dying, and he wants to see you again. Please go with me, and fulfill our young master's wish..."
