Just as Wen Ning was thinking about it, a warm embrace suddenly brought Wen Ning back to his senses.

"A Ning, I know you are sad. I'm sorry. I have been worried about Ah Qi. I feel very sad for ignoring you."

Wen Ning hugged Mo Chenyuan back

"I was careless. I didn't expect Su Qingqing to rush out suddenly. If I had been more cautious, Ah Qi would not have been injured."

"Aning, it's okay. Don't blame yourself. It's all my fault. It's me who put you in danger."

Wen Ning stroked Mo Chenyuan's back

"Okay, let's stop blaming ourselves. Now that things have happened, we should learn lessons and prevent such things from happening again."

Mo Chenyuan nodded.

"Okay, when Ah Qi wakes up, we will return to the border as soon as possible."

Dong dong dong

At this moment, there was a knock on the door

"Princess, Yikun Palace is here to get the medicine."

Wen Ning calmed down and took a deep breath.

"come in"

Dongxue gently opened the door

"Princess, Grandma Fang from Yikun Palace is here to get the medicine."

Wen Ning nodded, took out three pills from his pocket and handed them to Dong Xue

"Here, here's three days' worth of medicine."

Dongxue took the medicine and exited respectfully. Before Dongxue could close the door, the housekeeper came to report

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Minister of Civil Service wants to see you. Your Majesty, please see me."

Wen Ning was confused and looked at Mo Chenyuan in confusion.

"Your Majesty, who is the Minister of Staff?"

Mo Chenyuan explained

"Su Taiwei's father-in-law"

Wen Ning raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully

"Oh, is this a family that is giving away people's heads one after another? Uncle Wang, please ask him to come to the front hall."

Normally the prince would not object to the princess's wishes, so the housekeeper did not hesitate and was ordered to invite someone.

"Prince, let's go and see what he can do."

Mo Chenyuan nodded and followed Wen Ning out.

In the front hall, Qi Jiangzuo, a civil servant, was sitting respectfully on a stool. He was in his seventies or eighties, his hair neatly combed, and his uniform was meticulous.

Seeing the two people coming in, Qi Jiangzuo stood up quickly and saluted.

"I will see you, the prince and the princess."

The two of them walked straight to the front seat and sat down before speaking.

"Get up, Lord Qi, I want to see you. What's the matter?"

"Yes, my lord and princess, the criminal Su Muqing has committed a heinous mistake, and now it is reasonable and reasonable for him to be punished by the law.

It’s just that my unfilial granddaughter, Su Qingqing, I heard is now being imprisoned in the Regent’s Palace.

Therefore, I have the courage to come and ask the prince and princess to show mercy, let the child live, and shed some blood for my unfilial daughter."

Although Qi Jiangzuo was interceding for Su Qingqing, his attitude was respectful but not humble.

There's nothing wrong with the etiquette he's doing, but this guy makes him look proud.

Mo Chenyuan was holding a teacup with no emotion on his face.

"Do you know what crime Su Qingqing committed?"

Qi Jiangzuo is still naked

"I know, but now, she is also my granddaughter. I am willing to spend all my wealth to ask the prince and princess to spare her life."

Wen Ning was a little surprised. In these ancient times, special officials and eunuchs always put power first. For a useless son and granddaughter,

This old man was willing to spend all his wealth. Wen Ning's first feeling was that there was a conspiracy. .

But Mo Chenyuan was not surprised at all

"It's a pity that you are late, sir. I have already executed her with my own hands. She has suffered such a big loss for my regent's palace. How can I keep her here?"

Qi Jiangzuo closed his eyes, with a hint of sadness on his face, lifted his robe and knelt down on the ground.

"Your Majesty, please excuse me for being presumptuous, but can you give me her body to take home?"

Mo Chenyuan glanced at Wen Ning. Wen Ning's consciousness entered the space and took a look. Su Qingqing was no longer moving.

Wen Ning was a doctor. He could tell at a glance that Su Qingqing had no breath and was very dead.

I must have suffered too much torture during these days, my relatives died tragically, and I was already determined to die, so I couldn't hold on for an hour.

After thinking for a moment, Wen Ning spoke.

"It's not impossible to give it to you, but my guard was seriously injured. The medicine alone cost me 100 million taels of silver."

Qi Jiangzuo's expression remained unchanged, without any hesitation.

"Princess, this is all the fault of that rebellious girl. Naturally, we should bear the medical expenses of the seriously injured adults.

In addition, our Shirou Mansion will give you an additional compensation of 50 taels of silver. I don’t know what the prince and princess want.”

When Wen Ning heard this, he shouted in his heart that he had miscalculated. The old man didn't even blink. If he had known that the other party was so happy, he would have ordered more.

"Since your Majesty said so, I will follow your wishes. Please wait a moment while I ask someone to carry them up."

Wen Ning walked out of the front hall, found an empty corner and moved Su Qingqing's body out of the space.

I couldn't help but kicked him

"Humph, for the sake of money, I'm giving you an advantage."

Wen Ning turned around and walked out of the corner, shouting to a tree not far away

"come"

A secret guard flew down from the tree, Wen Ning pointed to the corner behind him

"Take her to the front room"

"Yes"

Wen Ning walked to the front hall, and the secret guard followed behind him, carrying Su Qingqing.

The secret guard threw the body to the ground. Qi Jiangzuo's face was a little moved, and his cloudy eyes flickered a little.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty and Princess. I will order the 150 million taels of silver notes to be delivered to my house later. I will resign now."

After speaking, Qi Jiangzuo bent down, picked up Su Qingqing and walked out. His back seemed not as straight as when he came.

Wen Ning was a little confused

"150 million taels to buy a body and take it home, what is he trying to do?"

Mo Chenyuan: "If Mr. Qi is serious, his status may be higher than that of a Taiwei. This 150 million taels is almost as good as spending everything you have."

Wen Ning was even more puzzled.

Seeing Wen Ning's curiosity, Mo Chenyuan continued to explain.

"If there are good officials in this court, your grandfather and Qi Jiangzuo will be the first to bear the brunt. These two are honest officials.

He is upright and never does anything to protect one another. Because of this, he has been in the officialdom all his life.

He was just a scholar, so he offended many people. Mr. Qi originally had two sons and one daughter.

Unfortunately, they all died young, leaving only one daughter, Mrs. Su."

After listening to Mo Chenyuan's words, Wen Ning seemed to understand why he had to spare Su Qingqing's life even though he had spent all his family wealth.

And why did his back suddenly bend when he was holding Su Qingqing's body?

Wen Ning felt a little sad, but she didn't regret it. Anyone who hurt her must die.

"Ah Qi woke up"

Wen Ning pulled Mo Chenyuan and ran towards Anxiang Pavilion. There were still many people in the front hall.

Sudden disappearance is easy to detect

After returning to Anxiang Pavilion and closing the door, Wen Ning thought and the two of them appeared in the space.

Ah Qi was motionless on the bed, looking around with his eyes. He still remembered the scene before closing his eyes.

The scene where the princess hugged him suddenly changed, and his mind was a little confused.

He didn't react until Mo Chenyuan and Wen Ning suddenly appeared.

Seeing Ah Qi with his eyes open, Wen Ning's nose felt a little sore, his lips curled up, and tears fell down.

"Ah Qi, you finally woke up. Why are you so stupid? Why are you using your body to block the knife?"

Ah Qi is confused, is the princess crying? Ah Qi, who had just woken up, was a little confused when she saw this strange place.

Wen Ning and Mo Chenyuan suddenly appeared again, and they were even more confused.

Wen Ning cried as soon as he saw him, and his mind became even more confused.

He didn't know if he was dead. Could it be that the prince and the princess were all dead?

Mo Chenyuan was a little worried when he saw Ah Qi had no reaction.

"Ah Qi, how do you feel?"

"Ah, Prince, Princess, Ah Qi Ke"
