I've been reborn, who would still raise a son from another family? Go away

Liu Yueru laughed softly and said to Xie Jingrui bluntly, "Fortunately I told you this first. If your people saw it and knew about it, they might say something unpleasant."

Xie Jingrui quietly put the medicine away. She also knew that Liu Yueru was slow in these aspects and did not intend to tell her about this.

He just raised his hand and gently touched the tip of her nose, and said with a doting look in his eyes, "Go ahead and bully me!"

Liu Yueru lowered her eyes and smiled with her eyebrows curved.

Xie Jingrui looked at her for a long time, and then expressed his worries; "Jiang Yishu is not as simple as he seems. You should not get too close to him in the future. If there is anything to communicate with him, just let the servants do it."

"I've got that." Liu Yueru nodded slightly. If she didn't have a request from him, she wouldn't have met Jiang Yishu in private.

Meeting today always makes Liu Yueru feel very strange.

She suddenly remembered that Jiang Yishu wanted to cooperate with the grain store, and turned to Xie Jingrui and said, "Today, Mr. Jiang wanted to cooperate with our grain store. He said that he had a lot of winter grain from the south. The price was right, and the grain was complete. I wanted to see what kind of grain it was. If the price was right, we could cooperate."

Xie Jingrui's brows were furrowed, and no emotion could be seen on his face.

Liu Yueru then explained, "I discussed with Uncle Fu some time ago that, apart from the food we have reserved for ourselves, the food in the cellar can only barely last until the early spring of next year. By then, the new food will not come down. If there is no food supply from outside, many people in Kyoto may starve for a while."

"The food available today is barely enough for most ordinary families to survive, and there are still many people who cannot even get enough to eat."

"We have also inquired about the places around us. Many people are unwilling to sell the grain at a low price. They are waiting to make a lot of money after our grain shop sells out. But how can the people afford the high-priced grain?"

"Mr. Jiang, I also asked him today. He said he had looked at the prices at the No. 1 Grain Shop. The things he provided can be sold at corresponding prices. I think it is necessary to cooperate with him."

After Liu Yueru finished speaking, she looked at Xie Jingrui with burning eyes.

Speaking of food, Xie Jingrui narrowed his eyes slightly. The secret agent reported that there was an escort team transporting food towards Kyoto.

I think it is what Jiang Yishu said.

Seeing that he remained silent, Liu Yueru changed her tone and said, "The things will arrive in a few days. If you are worried, you can go and check it out yourself. I haven't agreed to this yet. We run the grain store together, so I still need to ask your opinion. If you feel uncomfortable after seeing those things, we can discuss it."

Xie Jingrui looked at Liu Yueru's tactic of retreating to advance, and a smile appeared on his face. "If this cooperation can really be as Mr. Jiang said, it would be great. I know you want to agree, and I am not an unreasonable person."

"Leave this matter to me and Young Master Jiang to coordinate. When the food arrives, we will go and check it out together. This way we can be more thorough."

Hearing Xie Jingrui's agreement, Liu Yueru's heart suddenly relaxed a little, and she showed an elegant smile to Xie Jingrui.

As the two were talking, they came to the cubicle where Liu Zhengtang was. At this time, Liu Zhengtang was sitting with his back to him.

His behavior was a bit strange, and I didn't know what he was putting in his mouth.

Liu Yueru frowned slightly and called out to Liu Zhengtang softly, "Father, father?"

Liu Zhengtang did not react, but continued with his previous actions, with his head lowered, without any intention of stopping the movements of his hands.

The secret guards who were originally here to guard Liu Zhengtang have also disappeared.

Xie Jingrui subconsciously stood beside Liu Yueru and looked around carefully.

Liu Yueru stared at Liu Zhengtang intently and called him a few more times, but still received no response from the other party.

She walked forward and when her eyes accidentally swept over the lock on the door, her pupils suddenly tightened, and she took Xie Jingrui's hand and ran to the side; "Oh no, the door is not locked."

After Liu Yueru finished speaking, Xie Jingrui hurried forward and quickly put the lock back on the ground.

Liu Zhengtang, who had been motionless, suddenly turned around and stared at Liu Yueru with a grim look, his mouth still filled with darkness.

He suddenly gave Liu Yueru a strange smile.

His black mouth opened and closed, but no sound came out.

But at this time, Liu Yueru understood what Liu Zhengtang wanted to say from the shape of his mouth, and her heart suddenly tightened.

"Go and die!" Liu Zhengtang had just finished speaking.

Liu Yueru felt a strong wind coming towards her from behind.

She looked back, but Xie Jingrui was one step faster. He covered Liu Yueru's eyes with one hand, and took the sword at his waist with the other hand and hit the other person hard on the back of the head.

The disappeared secret guard suddenly fainted on the ground.

Xie Jingrui took a pill from the box and quickly stuffed it into the secret guard's mouth.

He quickly lifted the man's chin so that he could swallow the pill.

Not long after.

"Ugh..." The secret guard vomited with a smelly voice.

The secret guards who heard the noise elsewhere also rushed over.

Watching the other person spit out black liquid.

He quickly took the torch and threw it at the black liquid, and said to Xie Jingrui and Liu Yueru, "Prince, Miss Liu, come here quickly."

Although Xie Jingrui and Liu Yueru were a little confused, they still did as they were told.

Approaching another secret guard.

The others took the secret guard covered in black liquid away.

"I have failed in my duty." The secret guard knelt down towards Xie Jingrui.

"Get up and tell me, what's going on?"

"Reporting to the prince, there are poisonous insects in the black liquid. The Dali Temple did not properly handle the black liquid, and the remaining poisonous insects stuck to their bodies and slowly grew parasitic. During this period of time, our people have been showing symptoms of losing control."

"Most of the people I checked for parasites today have been found, and only a small number of people who have no discomfort are still on duty. I didn't know that Ali was also parasitized by the parasite."

"Where are they?" Xie Jingrui looked at the empty detention center and asked in confusion.

The secret guard pointed to the innermost areas and said, "They are all inside. The detention centers here are already full. If someone else shows up in this situation, I'm afraid we'll have to find a suitable place to detain them."

"It's bad, Your Majesty." The secret guard who rushed back from outside shouted to Xie Jingrui in a hurry.

Xie Jingrui looked at the panicking secret guard and asked, "What happened?"
