The scumbag wanted to wipe out the whole family, but rebirth ruined him!

"These were all bought from Tianxianglou. Let's eat something first before continuing."

Yan Qi took out the food one by one by himself.

Zhao Huayin came over and asked, "I wonder if the prince has had his meal?"

"The prince went to Tianxianglou to buy something and came here. He hasn't eaten anything yet."

Mu Xiao on the side answered first.

"Then why not have the prince come along as well."

Yan Qi did not refuse and sat down.

Mu Xiao finally understood. No wonder Yan Qi rushed out to buy things without having dinner at home. It turned out that he just wanted to come and be with Miss Zhao.

Yan Qi put some food into Zhao Huayin's bowl and asked,

"Did the person who just came here deliver Kesi silk?"

"Yes, I asked him to go to Jiangnan to buy brocade for me. He was gone for nearly a month and just returned to the capital yesterday."

"Why do you want to buy tapestry?"

Zhao Huayin also did not hide anything from Yan Qi.

"I heard that merchants from Jiaozhi come to the capital every year to buy cloth. I want to sell kesi to them."

Yan Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.

"You want to do business?"

"Yes."

"Why? You are a lady from the boudoir, and the apple of the eye of Minister Zhao. You have no shortage of money and no worries about food and clothing. Why do you want to do business?"

Zhao Huayin couldn't tell Yan Qi about her past life, so she could only say,

"People may think that people who do business are of low quality, and girls like me would rather not do business.

I just think that opening an embroidery workshop can promote my master's embroidery skills, and it would also be good to save some money.

You never know when it might come in handy.”

Yan Qi listened to Zhao Huayin quietly without answering.

Zhao Huayin was in a trance for a moment.

I felt that this situation was somewhat familiar, with me talking incessantly on one side and another person sitting quietly on the side.

"Do you need any help?"

"what?"

Zhao Huayin was a little hesitant.

"you……"

Zhao Huayin was a little surprised that Yan Qi's reaction was so calm when he heard that she wanted to do business.

"Just do whatever you want to do. If there's anything you need my help with, just tell me."

Yan Qi couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhao Huayin's surprised expression. Was he such an unreasonable person?

Finally, Zhao Huayin smiled brightly after hearing this.

"The person who came today is the one who manages your business?"

"Ah."

Zhao Huayin nodded.

"Brother Yan is very considerate and thoughtful. It is not convenient for me to take care of external affairs, so it is just right to hand it over to him."

Yan Qi frowned and said nothing else.

The two finished their meal quietly, and Yan Qi went to the city defense camp to deal with last night's events.

"Master, I have arranged everything in the prison. Several important organs have also been rearranged. Master, do you want to go and take a look?"

Yan Qi nodded.

"There was quite a bit of movement last night. I want to go to the innermost part to take a look."

When Mu Xiao heard Yan Qi mentioned the innermost part, he didn't dare to be negligent anymore.

"Master, are you afraid that King Xuan will make another move?"

"He will definitely make some moves."

Yan Qi snorted coldly.

"But not now. This morning, my father conferred upon me the title of prince. He did not say anything to stop me. He must be planning to wait until I am crowned king. If I make another mistake again, my father will punish me severely."

Mu Xiao's face darkened.

"The master has been conferred the title of prince, and his status is even more honorable. Your Majesty must give him some respect."

Yan Qi's expression was as stern as usual.

"My father has disliked me for more than a day or two, so what if I am a prince?"

After saying this, Yan Qi said no more. Mu Xiao pursed his lips and followed behind Yan Qi, not daring to speak again.

Inside the city defense camp prison.

All the serious criminals were being held in prison, and the layout of the prison was no longer the same as when Zhou Pei was imprisoned here.

Zhou Pei had no idea that the layout of the city defense camp would change as long as a few important mechanisms were changed, the location of the prison door would also change accordingly.

It looked like it was a different place. The layout map that Zhou Pei brought back was specially shown to him by Yan Qi.

I believe that after the court session today, King Xuan will go back and find Zhou Pei to sort out the layout issue.

Yan Qi inspected the prison and then walked towards the innermost part.

In the deepest part of the city defense camp prison, there is a special cell, the entire cell is made of fine iron.

Yan Qi passed through three doors before entering.

A somewhat thin man was sitting inside with his back to Yan Qi.

When I heard someone coming in, that person didn't turn around and just sat there motionless.

"You're here."

An old and hoarse voice came.

Yan Qi said nothing.

The man stood up slowly, and the shackles on his hands and feet made sounds due to the impact.

"You haven't come to see me for a long time."

The man turned around, his hair and beard were all white, and he was an old man with vigorous spirit.

Yan Qi stood outside the prison, with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of coldness.

"I think something happened outside, otherwise why would you come to see me?"

Yan Qi spoke coldly,

"No matter what happens outside, you will spend the rest of your life here."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Master, the mechanism of this secret cell has not been discovered by anyone."

“Still don’t be careless, be careful and take precautions.

The reason why King Xuan tried so hard to seize the control of the city defense camp from me was to find this person.

If he were to confirm that I had this person in my hands, I'm sure he wouldn't be so gentle."

"Yes! I will be careful and take precautions."

After walking for a while, Yan Qi suddenly remembered something.

"Send someone to investigate the person who delivered the materials to Pin Ya Ju today and see if he is reliable."

Mu Xiao quickly responded, and Yan Qi said,

"Also, ask the steward to select a few shops that are suitable for cloth shops. After the selection is made, have Madam Qian send them to Miss Zhao. Let Madam Qian act for Miss Zhao in the future."

"Master, this is..."

"It's inconvenient for men to interact with her. Madam Qian has been managing the cloth shop before, so it's perfect for her to go there."

Mu Xiao understood and hurriedly took the order.

After returning to the mansion, Yan Qi went straight to see Jun Jian and Fei Ying.

"Master, I have been investigating the Prince Xuan's Mansion and have already verified it the day before yesterday. The Prince Xuan has indeed raised private soldiers.

In order to conceal his true identity, King Xuan did not raise his troops in the capital."

Jun Jian reported to Yan Qi.

"You go on."

"Prince Xuan did this in secret. The Xie family of Ganzhou is the maternal family of Prince Xuan's mother, Concubine Yun. After investigation by my subordinates, I found that every once in a while,

A batch of money and grain would be sent to Ganzhou under different names, this was one of them.

Also, since the year before last, there have been rumors in Ganzhou that the Xie family is recruiting young and strong men, but the Xie family is very powerful in Ganzhou, so this matter has not been reported outside the capital. "

"Have you found out about the Xie family's military strength?"

"I am incompetent and have not yet been able to find out the specific situation of the Xie family's military strength."

"Never mind. It's not easy to find this information."

Finally, Yan Qi looked at the eagle flying beside him.

"You fought against the secret guards of Prince Xuan's Palace that day. How strong were they?"

"My light body skills are better than theirs. If we fight alone, I may not lose."

Yan Qi's expression became more serious.

Feiying's light-body skills are naturally impeccable, but Feiying only dares to say that he can be sure of victory if he fights alone. It seems that the strength of Prince Xuan's Mansion cannot be underestimated.
