After being tortured and died tragically, her legitimate daughter came back strong

Zhang Xiuxiu smiled bitterly. She was just a temporary housekeeper and had no real power:

"The account books are not in my hands. My second uncle, as a married woman, stopped the stewards from handing over the account books to me."

Rong Xi warned Zhang Xiuxiu with cold eyes: "Are you telling the truth?"

Zhang Xiuxiu swore and said:

"Everything a civilian woman tells is the truth. If there is even half a lie, heaven will strike with thunder!"

When Rong Xi saw this, he said to Zhang Xiuxiu:

"If I want to thoroughly investigate Bailong Villa, I need the account books of Bailong Villa."

Zhang Xiuxiu thought for a while and asked tentatively:

"Your Majesty, if it is found that my grandfather has nothing to do with the private sale of war horses, can you let him go?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Rong Xi's mouth, and he asked in a deep voice:

"Are you negotiating terms with me?"

Zhang Xiuxiu said in fear: "A civilian woman doesn't dare."

Rong Xi snorted coldly: "If Bailong Villa can carry it out, I can let you go."

Zhang Xiuxiu said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Jiang Wanwan said to Zhang Xiuxiu:

"Mrs. Zhang, you go back first, we will arrive later."

Zhang Xiuxiu stood up, saluted Rong Xi and said, "Mr. farewell."

After saying that, Zhang Xiuxiu nodded towards Jiang Wanwan and left first.

Jiang Wanwan looked at Rong Xi with a faint smile:

"My lord, you already knew that Zhang Xiuxiu's grandfather was not involved?"

Rong Xi smiled faintly: "Yes."

Jiang Wanwan said to Rong Xi:

"Your Majesty, I heard that there is the remains of a dragon horse in Bailong Villa. I am a little curious."

Rong Xi looked at Jiang Wanwan with a smile:

"I knew that you had other intentions."

Jiang Wanwan said matter-of-factly:

"I heard that the remains of dragon horses can be used as medicine, and all diseases will be cured."

Rong Xi said disapprovingly: "It's just a rumor."

Jiang Wanwan said with a serious face: "There is a record in Master's handbook that dragon horses really exist."

Rong Xi raised his eyebrows. He couldn't resist arguing with Jiang Wanwan on such a trivial matter.

"You can say yes."

Jiang Wanwan said angrily: "Of course there is, I will find it out."

Rong Xi crossed his arms across his chest and asked curiously:

"It's just a legend, don't take it seriously."

Jiang Wanwan was so angry that she rolled her eyes at Rong Xi and snorted coldly:

"With the remains of dragons and horses used as medicine, those hidden wounds on your body will be healed!"

Rong Xi felt warm in his heart when he heard Wanwan's words.

It turned out that she wanted to cure the hidden diseases he left on the battlefield.

"Okay, it's all up to you."

Rong Xi looked at Jiang Wanwan lovingly.

Jiang Wanwan rolled her eyes at him angrily:

"Let's go to Bailong Villa."

Rong Xi stood up without saying a word and took Jiang Wanwan's hand.

When the two of them arrived at Bailong Villa, Zhang Xiuxiu was already waiting at the gate.

Seeing Jiang Wanwan and Rong Xi, she breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to greet them.

"Miss Jiang, Mr. Rong."

Zhang Xiuxiu hid Rong Xi's identity.

Jiang Wanwan nodded slightly and said to Zhang Xiuxiu, "Long wait."

Zhang Xiuxiu said excitedly: "I haven't waited long, Miss Jiang, please come with me."

Jiang Wanwan and Rong Xi walked side by side towards the gate of Bailong Villa.

And just when they entered Bailong Villa, Zhang Qi also got the news.

He packed up his gold and silver and prepared to escape, but several of his men hurriedly came to report.

"Master, I found out that Zhang Xiuxiu and the woman next to the prince are old acquaintances, and they are not here to arrest the master."

"No, sir, we can't get out. The prince's secret guards are guarding the front door and the back."

Zhang Qi said angrily: "Damn! I should have escaped earlier."

Seeing that Zhang Qi was angry, his subordinates quickly offered their strategies and said:

"Master, go hide in the secret room first, and then come out after they leave."

His eyes lit up. Only he and his confidants knew about the secret room, so he hid in it first.

After the prince leaves, he will come out again.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qi asked his men to prepare food.

He himself hid in the secret room.

Jiang Wanwan was taken to Zhang Xiuxiu's grandfather's room.

Rong Xi was worried about Jiang Wanwan and followed him in.

Zhang Xiuxiu asked all the maids to go down.

After everyone left, Jiang Wanwan began to check Zhang Xiuxiu's grandfather's pulse.

Jiang Wanwan felt her pulse while Zhang Xiuxiu was extremely nervous.

She stared at Jiang Wanwan.

After taking her pulse, Jiang Wanwan withdrew her hand.

Zhang Xiuxiu asked nervously: "Did grandpa have a stroke?"

Jiang Wanwan's mouth curved:

"It's a stroke, but it can be cured."

Zhang Xiuxiu was overjoyed, and she said nervously: "Doctor Jiang, no matter how much money you spend, as long as you can cure my grandfather."

Jiang Wanwan and Rong Xi looked at each other and said slowly to Zhang Xiuxiu:

"You go and guard outside and don't allow anyone to come in."

Zhang Xiuxiu was overjoyed and hurriedly went to guard the door.

Jiang Wanwan lowered her voice and whispered a few words to Rong Xi.

Rong Xi glanced at Zhu Baoshan lying on the bed in surprise.

A trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

He looked away and nodded to Jiang Wanwan.

Jiang Wanwan turned on her toes and walked towards Zhu Baoshan.

She took out a silver needle and inserted it into Zhu Baoshan's acupuncture point.

"Uh……"

Zhu Baoshan made a slight sound, and the person slowly opened his eyes.

Jiang Wanwan and Rong Xi were sitting aside drinking tea.

He paid no attention to Zhu Baoshan who woke up.

Zhu Baoshan loosened his muscles and slowly sat up.

He looked at the man and woman who appeared in his room, his expression solidified, and he asked arrogantly:

"Who are you?"

Jiang Wanwan said with a smile: "Master Zhu, why are you up? You are still lying on the corpse!"

Zhu Baoshan was angry at Jiang Wanwan's words:

"Bold! Little girl, do you know who I am, how dare you be so presumptuous?"

Rong Xi's eyes flashed with sternness, and he said word by word:

"Zhu Baoshan, you are so brave. Do you think you can escape by pretending to be sick?"

Rong Xi had a cold and noble temperament that kept strangers away from him, which made Zhu Baoshan a little unsure.

He asked again: "Who are you?"

Rong Xi took out his token and put it on the table.

When Zhu Baoshan saw the token, he was frightened.

He stood up from the bed and went to check Rong Xi's token.

After finding out the authenticity of the token, Zhu Baoshan broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

He is no longer as arrogant as before.

He lifted up his robe, knelt down, and said in fear:

"The common people have met the prince."

Rong Xi didn't seem to hear Zhu Baoshan's words.

He slowly tapped the table with his ring finger casually.

Zhu Baoshan's mind was spinning rapidly.

How the prince discovered that he was pretending to be ill.

At this point, how should he explain his behavior of pretending to be ill?

Rong Xi curled his lips and said word by word:

"Master Zhu, lie back and I will watch you being buried."

When Zhu Baoshan heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead:

"Your Majesty, please spare your life! Your Majesty, please spare your life, the common people are forced to take this trick!"

Rong Xi said straight to the point:

"To put it bluntly, I don't have the patience to watch you perform."
