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

The scorching sun was blocked by clouds, and the hot and humid wind that usually comes in Deshui in summer was very clear today, sending away the little medicine king who saved Deshui from the plague with a hint of coolness.

Xie Chongan, who was originally scheduled to leave Deshui today, was hindered by the unlucky thing Sun Yicheng.

I don’t know what kind of nonsense is in that person’s mind.

Even though he was dead, there were still fragments of the ledger pointing directly to the capital in the cracks between his nails.

Thinking of Sun Yicheng's threats to him, Xie Chongan knew that the remaining half of the account book must be in the hands of Sun Yicheng, not Xu Mingqing.

This was done to allow Xu Mingqing to find out the truth.

Thinking of Sun Yicheng's way of dragging him with him even to death, Xie Chong'an immediately felt itchy with hatred.

Xiao Banzi opened the door of the room, directed the attendants to carry the new ice mirror into the room, walked to Xie Chongan's side, and shook the folding fan in his hand to send the coolness to Xie Chongan.

"Your Majesty, the three groups of people who went out to investigate have all come back. What Miss Liu said is the truth."

The white stone held on his fingertips landed smoothly on the chessboard. Xie Chongan took out another black stone and held it in his hand. He got interested and said, "Let's hear something new."

Xiao Banzi bowed his waist and served Xie Chongan some iced fruits:

"Don't look at it, Miss Liu is only sixteen now, but she is very capable."

"This Liu's Clothing Village was originally owned by her uncle. She and her parents lived in an old house in the country. Three years ago, her grandfather celebrated his seventieth birthday. The uncle's family who lives in the city went back to the old house to celebrate his birthday."

"Everything was fine at first, but somehow we encountered the beast on the way back to the city. In the end, only an eight-year-old son survived in the family of five."

"This child is too young to take care of this cloth farm, so Liu's cloth farm fell into the hands of her father."

"When her father became rich, he began to dislike her mother for failing to live up to her expectations and not giving him a son, so he began to focus on getting concubines so that he could carry on the family line for him."

"Although this concubine was taken in one after another, there was no movement in the belly. Her father became anxious later and used too much of the aphrodisiac she gave her, and finally died on the concubine's belly."

"After her father died, she became the master of the cloth shop. The flood came suddenly and destroyed Liu's cloth shop. Her cousin was washed away by the flood, and her mother entrusted her with her own life. Only when she got ashore did she have the chance to survive."

Xie Chongan threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess basket, inserted the melons with silver picks, and put them into his mouth one after another.

After a short while, he finished the plate of melon, took the tea, rinsed his mouth, and wiped his hands with a handkerchief. Xie Chongan stood up and asked as he walked: "How is she these days?"

"If this happened to an ordinary woman, she might be looking for life and death now. This Miss Liu is actually a calm person. She spends her days eating well, doing embroidery in her spare time, and reading her storybook. She looks quite at ease. "

Kuo walked into the room where Liu Fei was. Looking at the woman who was leaning against the window and flipping through a book, Xie Chongan said sternly: "You have lost your reputation, and I will not accept you. How can you survive with dignity?"

Liu Fei was startled by this sudden question. The book in her hand fell to the ground, and then she knelt down in front of Xie Chongan.

Xie Chongan came over in person, and Liu Fei naturally understood that the matter was done.

"It is a pity to lose this innocent body, but this is not what the daughter of the people wants. The daughter of the people has gone through a lot of hardships to get to where she is now. The daughter of the people wants to live."

Xie Chongan walked to the window and sat down, picked up the book that Liu Fei had dropped on the ground, flipped through a few pages and put it on the small table.

"What if I insist on killing you, the person who ruined my reputation as a virtuous person?"

Liu Fei took a deep breath and said, "The women of the people ran away. If they really can't escape and die, then the women of the people have worked hard for themselves."

"Your uncle used to own the cloth shop, and his son is still alive. So you encouraged your father to take away the cloth shop, and now you are still the shopkeeper as a woman. You are a person who dares to be disrespectful in the world. , which is not allowed in the world."

Liu Fei was noncommittal: "This cloth village was passed down from my grandfather, and they are all my grandfather's sons. If my uncle can be the shopkeeper, why can't my father be the shopkeeper?"

"My cousin can't be the shopkeeper, so what's wrong with a common girl helping him take care of it?"

"Hahaha." Xie Chongan smiled happily.

Xie Chongan saw the same kind of people. Liu Fei wanted to capture Buzhuang, and he wanted to capture the country.

Liu Feimou captured Buzhuang, and Xie Chongan would definitely take the country into his pocket.

Turning around and walking out of Liu Fei's room, Xie Chongan told the small board: "Take her back to the capital together and find a house where she can live comfortably."

"The slave obeys."

Because he was in a happy mood, Xie Chongan's face looked calm when he saw Xu Mingqing, whom he had least wanted to see these days.

"Does Mr. Xu bring any good news to this king?"

"I am reporting to the King. I met with the director of the Nanjun Salt and Iron Bureau last night. I originally wanted to go back to the county and interrogate him, but I just heard the news that he had died suddenly at home."

Xu Mingqing considered Xie Chongan's appearance and continued: "Now this case has become an unjust case."

Xu Mingqing brought indeed good news to Xie Chongan.

All the high-ranking officials involved in Salt and Iron in Nan County are dead, which is called death without evidence.

"Master Xu, don't be anxious. Just check slowly. I am here in the capital, so you don't have to worry."

"King Xie Cheng will cover for the humble minister." Xu Mingqing bowed his head and handed a booklet to Xie Chongan.

"I have sorted out a list of people named 'Li' in Beijing these days who may be colluding with Sun Yicheng. Do you think which one is more likely?"

Xie Chongan opened the fold, smacked it carefully for a moment, and then said:

"Master Xu, please don't narrow the road. This Li is not necessarily a surname. It may be a given name, a character, a certain place, or even a certain tree."

Xu Mingqing followed Xie Chongan's words: "What King Cheng said is reasonable. I should investigate further."

The cat and mouse are only interesting when they are relaxed and relaxed.

What's more, this person can't be killed too early.

Those who are above the imperial throne in the capital still have to rely on Xie Chongan to unseat them.

Seeing Xu Mingqing's interest, Xie Chongan's worry about causing trouble again after leaving Deshui calmed down.

"Master Xu, it will definitely take a lot of time to investigate this case. I have been delayed in Deshui for too long. My father has already sent people to summon me back to the capital."

That's all, the emperor's order was suppressed, and the hidden danger was eliminated. Xie Chongan didn't want to stay in a place like Deshui for a moment longer.

He thanked Chong'an for being the true Dragon Emperor, and the capital city was the sea suitable for him to travel.

Xu Mingqing clasped her hands tightly and looked at Huba outside the room for a moment, knowing that the result Xu Mingyue was waiting for had been obtained.

"What about my future duties?"

Xie Chongan walked up to Xu Mingqing and patted him heavily on the shoulder, saying:

"Two important officials in Nanjun died one after another. Master Xu, as long as you investigate this case properly, not to mention the position of the governor of Nanjun, even one of the six ministers, I will keep it for you."

"It is true that I, the King, and your Zhenguo Palace had conflicts in the early years, but if Mr. Xu can do things well for me, I will forgive you for your early transgressions."

Tightening and loosening with one hand, Xu Mingqing seemed to have made a major and difficult decision:

"I will arrange for someone to pack the luggage for King Cheng today, and King Cheng will definitely set off back to the capital within three days."

"Hahahaha." Laughing wantonly, Xie Chongan stretched out his finger and pointed at Xu Mingqing: "Xu Mingqing, you are the most promising person in your family. I am optimistic about you."

The smile in Xu Mingqing's eyes revealed some unclear meaning: "When I return to Beijing in the future, I should thank King Cheng for his cultivation today."

Xie Chongan likes today's Xu Mingqing very much.

It's like he relied on his own power to completely pull down Xu Mingqing, who used to use the welfare of the people as a pretext.

What Renjun? What Mingzhu? What kind of virtuous ministers and generals? Why worry about the country and the people?

In Xie Chongan's opinion, they are all stupid things.

This pinnacle of power is originally an exchange of benefits with a clearly marked price. Who do the common people in this world count?
