The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Xiong Er now especially wants to ask Ji Xiang how she knew that Kou Peilin had the book "The Art of War" in his hand. This book belongs to their Xiong family. It was snatched away by Kou Peilin and never got it back.

"Why, Master Kou doesn't want to return the book to me?" Ji Xiang said with a mocking tone, "Master Kou has millions of books in his family, wouldn't he refuse to return even a copy of "The Art of War" to its original owner?"

Kou Peilin became even more vigilant: "Who are you?!"

Ji Xiang: "Have you forgotten who you snatched this book from in the first place?"

Kou Peilin: "Are you from the Xiong family?!"

"Haha, it doesn't matter whose family I am from. What's important is that I must get that book back. Master Kou, do you want to give it to me yourself, or do you want me to snatch it from you like I did before?" Jixiang said Finally, the coldness in his tone was so heart-wrenching that Kou Peilin took a few steps back in fright.

Kou Peilin: "I don't have the book you mentioned in my hand?!"

"Master Kou wants me to rob it myself!" Before Ji Xiang finished speaking, the man had already passed by Kou Peilin!

Kou Peilin didn't expect Jixiang's skills to be so powerful, so he backed away in fear! But he didn't expect that he would eventually fall into Jixiang's hands. Jixiang held a silver needle and pierced the acupuncture point on Kou Peilin's neck with lightning speed. Kou Peilin's body immediately froze and he could not move.

"You, what are you going to do?!" Kou Peilin's eyes were filled with fear.

Jixiang winked at Xiong Er: "Search!"

Xiong Er immediately rushed into the study with several of his men.

Kou Peilin was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead: "You're not allowed to go in, you're not allowed to go in, who are you? Why are you going against me?! I am the Minister of War, and none of you can escape!" He suddenly shouted outside, " Someone is coming, someone is coming!”

Jixiang injected a needle into Kou Peilin's head again. This time, Kou Peilin opened his mouth so wide that he couldn't scream.

Ji Xiang did not dare to waste any more time and sneered: "Master Kou, think about how you can escape the punishment of the court." She left Kou Peilin and entered the study.

In the study, Xiong Er got the book "The Art of War" on the table. When Jixiang came in, he handed it to Jixiang to read, "How did the eldest lady know about this book?"

Ji Xiang: "We'll talk about this later. Now hurry up and find evidence of Kou Peilin's crime."

Xiong Er understood immediately and ordered several of his men to search for evidence.

The movement in the study was finally discovered by the guards in the Kou Mansion. They rushed into the courtyard where the study was located and surrounded the door of the study.

When the guards saw Kou Peilin nailed to the door of the study, they did not dare to step forward for fear that it would be detrimental to Kou Peilin.

Kou Peilin watched the guards surrounding him without moving, his eyes darting around anxiously and sweat dripping from his forehead.

The guard leader finally realized that something was wrong and rushed to Kou Peilin. Kou Peilin winked hard into the study, and the guard immediately called for everyone to rush in.

However, there was no one in the study.

"Sir, there is no one in the study." The guard leader came out to report.

Kou Peilin became even more anxious and hummed from his throat.

Only then did the guard leader realize that something was wrong with Kou Peilin and shouted: "Sir, something is wrong. Go call the doctor!"

A guard took the order and ran out.

The leader of the guard said: "Protect your lord, the rest of you will search in each courtyard!" Everyone dispersed, leaving only a few guards to guard Kou Peilin.

Kou Peilin was so anxious that he wanted to catch those men in black immediately, but now he couldn't move or shout. He was stuck there like a stake. He felt that he had never been so defeated in his life as at this moment.

But what worries him the most is that the man in black just now knew that he had the book "The Art of War". Kou Peilin was upset when he thought that the book was on the table in the study room. Those people must have taken the book away. ! That was what he had worked so hard to get, he couldn't just lose it!

Kou Peilin was so anxious that he couldn't do anything!

The Shangshu Mansion was in chaos, but Ji Xiang and Xiong Er returned home with a full load.

Xiong Er deliberately took out the book "The Art of War" and asked Jixiang: "Miss, how did you know that Kou Peilin had the book "The Art of War" in his hand?"

Ji Xiang smiled: "Isn't this what you want?"

Xiong Er: "My subordinate wants it, but I haven't told the eldest lady. Could it be that the eldest lady can read my mind and know what I am thinking?"

Ji Xiang: "Just take it as such. Anyway, you follow me. As long as it is what you want, I will try my best to let you get it." She can't tell Xiong Er that she sometimes passes through a special medium and knows that the owner behind the medium has experienced thing. She accidentally read the book "The Way of War" when she came across Xiong Er's sword. At that time, she also believed that the injustice carried by Xiong Er was really related to Kou Peilin, the current Minister of War.

Xiong Er knelt down and knelt on the ground again gratefully: "Miss Xie has me in her heart. I will definitely follow her and swear allegiance to her in the future!"

Xiong Er's other brothers immediately followed and bowed down, saying in unison: "We will swear allegiance to the eldest lady to the death!"

Ji Xiang smiled: "By the way, Brother Xiong, can I read your book "The Art of War"?"

"Of course!" Xiong Er quickly handed the book to Ji Xiang.

Jixiang took the book and said, "Okay, take all the things you got from Kou Peilin's study to my yard, and then you all can go back and rest."

"Yes!" Everyone was carrying various collected things, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Xiong Er and the others didn't know that the account books and books they brought out from Kou Mansion's study were only a very small part. At that time, they heard guards coming outside. Jixiang asked them to leave first, while she stayed behind to wait for Xiong Er and the others to get in. After the roof, she stuffed everything she could get in the study into the space and took it away.

Jixiang is going to find evidence of his crime among the things in Kou Peilin's study.

Returning to Ji's own yard, Ji Xiang threw everything Xiong Er and the others had put into the yard into the space, and followed them into the space.

Kou Peilin is indeed not a good official. Not to mention books and account books, there are priceless calligraphy, paintings, and antiques in his study. He is a military general, and he can really be arty. If he collects some swords and weapons, he would think it is his nature, but he didn't expect it. The thought of imitating those civil servants and engaging in calligraphy, painting and antiques makes people laugh.

Ji Xiang put the calligraphy, painting and antiques aside and began to look through the account books. In the end, she really found something useful. Kou Peilin has a booklet that records all the gifts he has given out over the years. It contains not only the name of the prince, but also the names of the queen, Concubine Lan, Concubine Shu and others.

This guy is playing a pretty big game.

Jixiang turned to the end and saw his father Ji Ruian's name on the booklet.

Kou Peilin even gave his father a gift? !

Jixiang was confused, but unlike those names, there was only Ji Ruian's name on the booklet, and there was no subsequent record of the name and quantity of the items sent, as well as the year and month of the gift.

What does this mean? Why did Kou Peilin only record his father's name but not the whole story? !

Ji Xiang pondered for a long time and decided that it would be better to ask her father Ji Ruian about this. She put the book into a book-sized box and continued to look for other useful things in a pile of account books.

When Jixiang came out of the space, it was already bright.

The sunlight shines through the window lattice on the stone tiles of the study, reflecting a faint light.

"Sister, where are you? Sister..." Zaohua's anxious voice came from outside the house.
