Reborn to choose a husband, I will lead the deposed prince to seize my ex-husband’s kingdom

Holding the ledger in one hand, Sun Yi immediately noticed something was wrong with the thickness of the ledger.

With trembling fingertips, he turned the ledger directly to the last page. The only person involved in all the accounts in this ledger was Sun Yicheng.

His face suddenly turned pale.

How could Sun Yicheng not understand that it was not this building that was going to topple now, but him, Sun Yicheng.

Bracing himself, Sun Yicheng bent his waist and poured a cup of tea for Xu Mingqing: "Mingqing, where did you get this account book from?"

"My subordinate went to direct the burning and landfilling of infected materials in the Eastern District today. When I returned to the study, I saw this account book."

He stopped talking and hesitated for a moment before continuing: "This account book is only half of it. The amount of all the smuggled salt and iron is only related to Mr. Sun. Now I just want to be promoted and don't want to cause trouble, so I came to see this account book when I saw it." grown ups."

"Master Sun, has he offended anyone recently? The person who handed the account book to the lower official is trying to kill Master Sun."

"If you know who it is, sir, you might as well go and beg him again. Dayu once explicitly banned the private sale of salt and iron. If this is discovered, it will be a serious crime that will destroy the nine tribes."

Sun Yicheng suffered a cardiac arrest thinking about his wife and children at home.

His mind quickly filtered through everyone involved in the salt and iron matter, and Sun Yicheng had the answer in his mind.

The sale of assets takes time. He really couldn't raise so much cash in recent days, so he went to Xie Chong'an to make a few remarks, and his tone was a little more serious when he spoke backstage.

He clearly remembered that when he left Xie Chongan's room that day, Xie Chongan summoned many guards to go in.

It turns out that the purpose is to get past him and get this account book.

But why did this account book fall into Xu Mingqing's hands?

Could it be that Xu Mingqing knew that the other 150,000 taels of silver were in Xie Chongan's hands, and Xie Chongan wanted to sacrifice him to silence Xu Mingqing?

Seeing the determination flashing in Sun Yicheng's cloudy eyes, Xu Mingqing helped the shaky Sun Yicheng sit down:

"Master Sun, I just pretend that I don't know about this, but I must get the remaining 150,000 taels of silver in the next few days."

After Xu Mingqing finished speaking, he reached for the account book.

Holding the account book tightly in his arms, Sun Yicheng said with pleading in his eyes: "Don't worry, Ming Qing, this account book is only suitable in my hands. I will definitely get the money for you within two days."

Xu Mingqing looked reluctant, as if he didn't trust Sun Yicheng very much: "Master Sun, you know Xiaguan, if this half of the account book is in Xiaguan's hands, Xiaguan will naturally copy it."

Sun Yicheng smiled earnestly and tried his best to comfort Xu Mingqing: "Mingqing, just don't worry, I will ask you for the money now."

After sending Xu Mingqing away in person, Sun Yicheng walked around the study a few times, chewed a few pieces of ginseng, and turned towards Xie Chongan's residence.

The restlessness around him calmed down. Chen Qing covered the tiles on Sun Yicheng's roof and took Xu Mingyue to fly straight to Xie Chongan's roof.

Stopping Chen Qing from uncovering the tiles, Xu Mingyue leaned into Chen Qing's ear and spoke in a very low voice: "Why is there only half an account book?"

The down on his ears couldn't help but tremble, his ears instantly turned red, and Chen Qing's feet became a little soft.

Chen Qing took a deep breath and trembled with every word he spoke: "Don't worry, girl, wait and see."

The tiles were uncovered again, and everything in the house was revealed to Xu Mingyue.

Sitting on the main seat, caressing the painting with his fingers, was Xie Chongan. Standing opposite Xie Chongan with suppressed anger and hatred was Sun Yicheng.

Xu Mingyue observed Sun Yicheng carefully for a moment and found that Sun Yicheng did not take out the account book.

After a moment's thought, he understood that Sun Yicheng decided to take a desperate risk and wanted to use the salt and iron incident to threaten Xie Chongan and save his own life.

After all, not fighting is a crime against the nine clans. If you give it a try, you might still have a way to survive.

But Xu Mingyue knew full well that Sun Yicheng's life would definitely not be saved.

There was silence in the room, and Xu Mingyue had time to touch the painting: "Don't tell me, the painting is pretty good."

Chen Qing looked at Xie Chongan's hand that was on the album, and the murderous aura flashed in his eyes: "Everyone who has seen the girl's appearance has already been dealt with."

"The painting in his hand will not be left after tonight."

And the hand that Xie Chongan touched Danqing would be chopped off sooner or later.

Xu Mingyue didn't care much about Xie Chongan's actions. She leaned close to Chen Qing's ear and whispered:

"After Liu Fei's incident is completed, we will use this painting to burn down the house and let everyone around watch the fun."

This time, Chen Qing trembled for a while before she could finally speak in full: "Okay, I'll listen to the girl."

--

Sun Yicheng looked at the lust on Xie Chongan's face and became more and more angry thinking about the guards sent by Xie Chongan to kidnap people in the East District.

But he suddenly didn't want to do anything too wrong. He still wanted to try first to see if the account book was really written by Xie Chongan.

If not, Xie Chongan might be able to save him.

"King Cheng, I really can't get the remaining 150,000 taels of silver together. Now you can give me the 150,000 taels of silver I gave you last time and treat it as a loan from you. Can you do it?"

Xie Chongan's face was indifferent, and he had a real murderous intention when he saw the courtiers who provoked him again and again.

A dog is disobedient and wants to steal food from its owner's rice bowl. Why should he be left alive?

"This world belongs to my Xie family. Master Sun has been the county guard for so many years, has he forgotten who is your master?"

"My Xie family doesn't raise useless dogs. Xu Mingqing scared you into this with just a few casual threats. Do you think you are worth living?"

In just two sentences, Sun Yicheng sadly realized that Xie Chongan really wanted his life.

He had done so many things for Xie Chongan and Xie Yan, but Xie Chongan actually wanted his life for 150,000 taels of silver?

"His Royal Highness King Cheng, I owe you and your Majesty's contribution to the successful entry into the capital. Of all the money I have collected over the years, which one of them does not concern you and the Emperor first?"

Seeing Sun Yi become a hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver, you actually intend to die with him?

Xie Chongan felt that Sun Yicheng was so ridiculous.

How can the power of an earthworm be used to stir up a real dragon flying in the sky?

"Come here, Mr. Sun is not clear-headed. Take him to wake up."

If it weren't for the fact that Sun Yicheng did things properly in the past, what Xie Chongan wants now is Sun Yicheng's life.

Sun Yicheng was frightened by this move and knew that if he was taken away, there would be no way to survive.

He used all his strength to break free from the guard who was holding him, and the old voice spoke out the chips he held in his hand.

"Your Highness King Cheng, what Xu Mingqing has in his hands is not only the evidence of corruption by Xianguan over the years, but also half of the salt and iron bureau's account books that were blown away by the flood."

"As long as he finds out the truth about the past through this half of the account book, the world will have to return it to the poisoned and comatose former prince."
