Chapter 328: Rumors of Jiang Yimo being a witch are flying everywhere
After the two of them had dinner, Feng Wuhen said that he still had some things to deal with, so Jiang Yimo tactfully released him from the space.
She herself stayed in the space and began to pack up various items that she would need when going out in a few days.
However, Jiang Yimo didn't know at this moment that the entire imperial city fell into madness overnight!
People were spreading shocking news: Jiang Yimo was actually a witch!
What's worse, some people even made her so-called "deeds" sound miraculous and mysterious, as if they had seen them with their own eyes, and spread the story that she was the reincarnation of a demon.
These rumors spread more and more widely, and soon spread throughout the entire imperial city, causing an uproar.
People were filled with fear and curiosity about this "witch" who suddenly appeared, and all kinds of speculations and rumors followed.
Some people said that she was very good at using magic to save people, deceive the world, and harm the world; some people said that she was beautiful, but her heart was as vicious as a snake; some people said that she was possessed by a monster and lost herself...
Overnight, Jiang Yimo became the focus of everyone's attention, but she herself was unaware of it.
The next morning, the weather was a little cool, but it was a good day.
Feng Wuhen had just finished practicing swordsmanship. He glanced to the side and saw Shadow running towards him anxiously.
"My Lord, this is bad, something terrible has happened!"
Feng Wuhen couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
"What else happened?"
"My Lord, this matter is related to the princess."
"Is it related to Momo?" Feng Wuhen was slightly startled, and then he quickly came to his senses and asked anxiously: "What is it? Tell me quickly!"
"Rumors about the princess have spread throughout the entire imperial city. They all say that the princess is the reincarnation of a witch!"
Shadow has always been eloquent, but when he talked about the rumors about Jiang Yimo, his tongue got tied.
"What kind of rumor is this? And when did it start to spread?" Upon hearing this, Feng Wuhen was already furious.
"It is said that the princess had her fortune told by a Taoist priest, who said that she had a bad fate and was the reincarnation of a man-eating plant demon... As for who first spread this rumor, I sent someone to investigate as soon as I learned about it."
"However, I heard Qingzhu mention last night that the princess had a conflict with Jiang Qinian in front of Gu's house yesterday, and Jiang Qinian even scolded the princess as a witch in front of everyone. Therefore, I guess that the rumors from the outside world may be related to him."
After Shadow expressed his guess, Feng Wuhen's face became extremely gloomy.
"Go and investigate! No matter what method you use, you must find out for me the mastermind behind this matter! If all this is really related to Jiang Qinian, I will never let him go easily!" Feng Wuhen's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said in a cold voice.
Shadow hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously, "So, my Lord, should we tell the princess about this?"
Feng Wuhen frowned, thought for a moment and then replied: "Don't tell her for now. The most important thing now is that you must find out the mastermind behind the rumor as soon as possible and find a way to calm it down. Before that, don't let the princess know about this, so as not to make her feel upset."
After saying that, Feng Wuhen waved his hand, signaling Shadow to do it immediately.
Shadow took the order and left, secretly sighing in his heart that the prince's love for the princess was truly meticulous.
He also understood that this matter was of great importance, and if not handled properly, it might cause a lot of trouble for the prince and princess.
Therefore, he tried to find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible to reduce the trouble for the prince and princess.
However, what the master and servant did not expect was that General Gu had also heard the rumors about Jiang Yimo outside early in the morning, so he rushed to the Evil King's Mansion to find Jiang Yimo.
At this time, Jiang Yimo had just finished her morning courtyard exercise, entered the space, took a shower, and was preparing to have breakfast.
Just after eating a few bites, she heard the news from Qing Nuan: General Gu is here! She was slightly startled, but soon regained her composure. However, at this moment, her grandfather had already stepped into the moon gate of Wutong Courtyard.
"Nini, there are some rumors about you out there, have you heard about them?"
Grandpa's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
But a hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Yimo's eyes, and then returned to normal.
"Grandpa, what kind of rumor is it?" Her voice was as calm as autumn water, and she didn't seem to be disturbed by this sudden question.
"That's it..." General Gu took a deep breath and explained in detail the rumor that Jiang Yimo was a witch. His tone was filled with worry and concern, and his eyes were always on his granddaughter.
After he finished his story, Jiang Yimo just sighed softly, as if she had anticipated these rumors.
"Grandpa, what does it matter? They like to spread rumors, so just let them say it." The corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a faint smile.
That smile showed both disdain for boring rumors and a sense of freedom and ease that was detached from worldly troubles.
"But this is a feudal and superstitious society, not the modern society we live in! If these rumors that are unfavorable to you are not curbed, it will definitely bring you a lot of trouble." General Gu reminded her earnestly.
Jiang Yimo nodded to show that she understood, and said, "Grandpa, I know."
When General Gu saw his granddaughter so calm and composed, he immediately thought of how much the Evil King cared about his granddaughter. He thought that the Evil King would never allow the rumors from the outside world to continue to spread, so he felt a little relieved about the matter.
"Yes, the Evil King must have known about this. Maybe he has already arranged people to investigate this matter. Grandpa is too worried." General Gu said with a smile.
"Grandpa, don't worry! Even if the evil king doesn't take the initiative to investigate this matter, I have already guessed who it is."
Jiang Yimo said this in a decisive tone, her eyes instantly becoming extremely sharp, as if she could see through everything.
"Nini, the person you are referring to is Jiang Qinian?" General Gu asked tentatively.
"Hmph! Even if that person is not Jiang Qinian himself, he must have a close relationship with him. After breakfast, I will go to the Jiang Mansion in person and take a look, and then I will know." Jiang Yimo's tone was firm and decisive.
"Okay, then grandpa will go with you." General Gu expressed without hesitation that he would go with his granddaughter to beat the scum.
"No, Grandpa. I am enough to deal with Jiang Qinian by myself. If no one backs him up, he won't be able to stand up straight."
