Rong Xi said word by word: "In that case, let's bring the account book."

The smile on Zhang Qi's face was a little stiff, and he raised his voice and said to the maid:

"Go to the master and ask him to bring the accounts of the gold mine to the prince for review."

"Yes."

Rong Xi sat calmly and calmly, but Zhang Qi found it difficult to sit still.

He didn't expect that Rong Xi came to check his accounts.

Fortunately, he was prepared.

He had just hinted to the master that the account book was for the prince to see.

Just as Zhang Qi expected.

The master took out the fake account book that he had prepared a long time ago.

When Zhang Qi handed the account book to Rong Xi to look at.

Rong Xi handed the account book to Jiang Wanwan with his backhand.

Jiang Wanwan smiled and slowly opened the account book.

After casually flipping through a few pages, Jiang Wanwan knew that the account book was fake.

She put down the ledger and said nothing.

Jiang Wanwan's reaction confirmed Rong Xi's suspicion.

"Master Zhang, take me to the gold mine to see."

There was a look of panic in Zhang Qi's eyes:

"Your Majesty, the gold mine is in the mountains and is located in a remote location. It just rained two days ago and the road is difficult to travel. It is better to wait until the weather gets better before going there."

Rong Xi heard the shirk in Zhang Qi’s words:

"Okay, let's go there in a few days."

Zhang Qi was relieved when he heard Rong Xi said he didn't want to go see the gold mine.

Yuan Shuang raised the wine pot and pretended to pour wine for Jiang Wanwan:

"Girl, this is peach blossom stuffed rice. Try it."

Jiang Wanwan nodded noncommittally.

A calculating look flashed in Yuan Shuang's eyes.

With a shake of her hand, the wine in the flask spilled onto Jiang Wanwan's clothes.

Yuan Shuang took out a handkerchief to help Jiang Wanwan clean it up, and she exclaimed:

"Oh, I was so clumsy that I soiled the girl's clothes."

Jiang Wanwan was in trouble when Yuan Shuang spilled wine on her clothes.

Then I knew Yuan Shuang did it on purpose.

She said nonchalantly: "It's okay, madam, don't mind."

Yuan Shuang said sincerely:

"Girl, you and I have similar figures. If you don't mind, just follow me to the backyard to change clothes."

Jiang Wanwan refused: "No, thank you madam for your kindness."

Seeing Jiang Wanwan's refusal, Yuan Shuang continued to persuade:

"Wearing wet clothes is always uncomfortable. If the girl catches a cold, I will be guilty of a great crime. You should follow me to change clothes."

Jiang Wanwan sneered in her heart, how could she catch a cold in the spring season when flowers are blooming.

Rong Xi glanced at Zhang Qi lightly.

Zhang Qi noticed that the prince was angry and scolded:

"Women really can't stand on the stage. How can the clothes you wear be worn by a girl? You are clumsy, so hurry up and get off."

Seeing this, Yuan Shuang had no choice but to bow and leave the banquet.

Zhang Qi smiled and said to Jiang Wanwan:

"Girl, I made some new clothes for my niece. She hasn't worn them yet. You can go to the backyard and change out of the wet clothes."

Jiang Wanwan and Rong Xi looked at each other without trace.

Rong Xi gave Jiang Wanwan a reassuring look.

Jiang Wanwan smiled and said to Zhang Qi, "Okay, I'll go change my clothes."

Zhang Qi motioned to the maid standing aside and led Jiang Wanwan to change clothes.

Jiang Wanwan took Honglian and Xiugu to change clothes.

On the way, the three of them looked at each other.

The maid led Jiang Wanwan to the guest room and left.

There are two or three sets of clothes in the guest room.

Honglian picked up the clothes and handed them to Jiang Wanwan.

Xiugu frowned: "Wait."

After saying that, Xiugu put his nose close to the clothes and smelled it.

"The clothes have been tampered with. If you wear these clothes, your skin will itch unbearably."

The shadow of the county magistrate's wife appeared in Jiang Wanwan's mind.

She snorted coldly and said to Honglian:

"Take your clothes and let's go back."

After saying that, Jiang Wanwan and the others were leaving.

Unexpectedly, Xiugu smelled a pungent smell as soon as he opened the door.

Xiugu shouted: "Hold your breath quickly."

As Xiu Gu finished speaking, Jiang Wanwan and others fainted.

Zhang Qi straightened his spine and talked to Rong Xi about the important tasks of Wolong Town.

At this moment, the maid hurriedly ran over to report:

"Sir, what's wrong, the girl who went to change clothes just now has disappeared, leaving a letter behind."

Tianshu took the letter from the maid's hand and handed it to Rong Xi.

Rong Xi glanced at the maid who reported the news.

The maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground.

The letter stated that if he wanted to save the man, he would have to redeem him with 10,000 taels of silver.

Zhang Qiteng stood up and said, "Here comes someone, go find him quickly."

A chill flashed through Rong Xi's eyes, and he looked at the maid kneeling on the ground:

"Why is the person missing?"

The maid said tremblingly: "I don't know."

Rong Xi's face darkened: "What an ignorant person!"

Tianshu approached the maid and pressed her acupuncture points.

The maid was so painful that she broke into a cold sweat, and she cried:

"I was waiting outside the wing, but I had a stomachache. I went to the toilet and when I came out, the girl was nowhere to be seen."

"This slave did not mean to be lazy. Your Majesty, please spare my life!"

Rong Xi didn't believe what the maid in front of him said.

Tianshu whispered a few words to Rong Xi in a low voice.

Rong Xi stood up and walked outside the government office.

Zhang Qi quickly followed behind Rong Xi.

Rong Xi suddenly stopped and said without looking back:

"Don't follow me. If you can't find Miss Jiang, I will ask you to pay with your life."

Zhang Qicheng said fearfully:

"Yes, I will definitely try my best to rescue that girl. Prince, please rest assured."

Rong Xi snorted coldly and left without looking back.

Zhang Qi lowered his head and slowly raised it.

The submissive look on his face disappeared.

He looked at Rong Xi's back with compassion and snorted coldly.

Rong Xi left the county office and asked Tianshu: "Where is Wanwan now?"

"Miss Jiang was taken to the mountain by Yuanji's men, and Kaiyang followed Miss Jiang secretly."

Rong Xi's eyes flashed with sternness, Yuan Ji was now imprisoned in the county prison.

Yuanji's men secretly kidnapped Jiang Wanwan.

Zhang Qi is so brave.

Tianshu continued: "Your Majesty, Zhang Qi took advantage of the opportunity to find Miss Jiang and transported the gold out."

"I'm going to find Jiang Wanwan. You go and rob this batch of gold and send someone to the border."

"Yes."

Rong Xi Qingjun's eyebrows were serious. He was going to find Jiang Wanwan now.

Jiang Wanwan and the other three were thrown into a carriage.

There were only three of them in the carriage, and their kidnapper was driving the carriage.

They were not stunned at all.

I just want to see what the people behind the scenes want to do.

Their hands and feet were tied with hemp rope.

Honglian used a little force to break free of the hemp rope.

After she untied her own hemp rope, she also untied Jiang Wanwan's and Xiugu's hemp ropes.

Jiang Wanwan lifted a corner of the car curtain and looked outside.

There were trees on both sides and the dust was flying.

Jiang Wanwan could tell that they were going up the mountain.

In the government office, Rong Xi found no evidence that Zhang Qi colluded with Rong Muhan.

Rong Muhan could not be convicted of embezzling gold mines.

If it can be done, Rong Muhan will be able to embezzle gold mines.

This would separate the emperor from his father and son.

Rong Muhan and the Ma family took away the food from Qianshui Town, plus the gold mine from Wolong Town.

The emperor will definitely think that Rong Muhan wants to seize power and usurp the throne.

Jiang Wanwan thought about the matter carefully.
