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

Ye Tao nodded quickly and raised her hand to pat her mouth. "My broken mouth is talking nonsense again."

Liu Yueru smiled helplessly. "Tell them to send less tomorrow, and then send as normal in four or five days."

"Why?" Ye Tao asked with some confusion.

Liu Yueru smiled mysteriously and explained to Ye Tao, "There isn't much food in the entire capital city. We can sell it at such a high price because most of the food is grown by ourselves. But they are different. They must have bought it from others at a high price and sold it at such a low price, and there is no limit on the quantity."

"Even if they have mountains of gold and silver, they can't afford such losses. If they want to fight a protracted war, they will definitely cut off those businesses that are causing the most losses first."

Ye Tao suddenly understood and smiled, "I understand."

After Liu Yueru came out of the grain shop, she went to the prison to see if she could get any useful information from there.

In the palace.

Concubine Xian stayed beside Xie Jingrui's bed and sighed softly.

"Why are you so angry with your father? You know that he needs more coaxing now, but you insist on saying things that he doesn't want to hear."

After hearing this, Xie Jingrui suddenly sat up from the bed and looked at Concubine Xian with an innocent face. "Mother, it's not that I want to be angry with the emperor. I was talking to the emperor in a good way that day. I don't know what I said was wrong and made the emperor unhappy. The emperor suddenly got angry with me."

"Besides, in the past, I have always spoken directly to you, Father. I have said even more disrespectful things in the past, but you never got as angry as you did that day."

The virtuous concubine looked at Xie Jingrui helplessly. During this period of time, she tried her best to get the emperor to release Xie Jingrui from the prison.

She said all sorts of good and bad things to Emperor Hexu, but the emperor insisted that Xie Jingrui must take the initiative to admit his mistake to him before he would forgive him.

"You and your son have the same temper, but he is the emperor and you are his son and a subject. You shouldn't be so serious with the emperor. Sometimes the emperor just wants a way out and lets go."

Xie Jingrui also knew what Concubine Xian said. "I know, is your father doing well these days?"

"Alas, ever since the day you were thrown into prison, your father has been worried every day. He can't eat or sleep well. He also asks from time to time about your situation in prison. Your father is also worried about you." The virtuous concubine said earnestly.

The two were silent for a long time.

The virtuous concubine then asked tentatively, "What did you say that day?

Xie Jingrui thought about it and told Concubine Xian what happened that day.

After hearing this, Concubine Xian's face changed drastically. "Is this what you told your father?"

"Is there anything wrong?" Xie Jingrui thought for a moment and then said, "Since Father asked, doesn't he want to hear the truth? Honest words are unpleasant to the ears but beneficial to action. If even what his own children say is not true, who can Father trust?"

Xian Fei reached out her hand and gently tapped his forehead. "How come you look so smart in front of your father? Your father didn't mean to ask you those questions, but meant something else."

"What do you mean?" Xie Jingrui asked in confusion.

Xianfei looked around to see if there was anyone around, and lowered her voice to whisper in his ear, "The emperor wanted to see what you think about the throne. He was angry because your words seemed to be premeditated and that you coveted the throne, which made the emperor furious."

"When you see the emperor later, explain your thoughts to him carefully, and don't let him have any worries."

Xie Jingrui suddenly realized it, but he asked calmly, "If I explain it clearly, can I ask my father for a reward for my military merits?"

Xian Fei was almost mad at Xie Jingrui and fainted. "What reward do you want? Do you want to die?"

Xie Jingrui thought about it, lifted the quilt and walked outside, all the way to the imperial study.

The two of them talked for a long time inside, and Xie Jingrui came out with a happy look on his face.

Liu Yueru, who was originally gathering information in the prison, and Lixia and those people from the Liu Mansion were all released.

"what happened?"

Lixia shook her head; "I don't know, they just released us and said that the matter had been investigated."

Liu Yueru frowned slightly; "Let's go back first."

As soon as they returned to Liu Mansion, they saw a dusty carriage rushing towards them.

Fortunately, the coachman pulled the reins in time to prevent the two carriages from colliding.

Lixia shouted at the other party with anger on her face, "How could the carriage be driven so fast in front of the mansion? It almost hit our wife."

I wanted to say something else.

A man suddenly jumped down from the carriage, and walked towards Liu Yueru's carriage with a cold and noble look.

There was an uncontrollable smile on the other person's face.

Lixia immediately swallowed back the curse she was about to say.

Liu Yueru raised her hand and opened the curtain with some surprise.

A cold and handsome face suddenly appeared in front of her.

Liu Yueru was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise, "Are you feeling better?"

Xie Jingrui stretched out his arm and helped Liu Yueru get off the carriage, the joy on his face not diminishing at all.

"My wounds are almost healed. Thanks to the food you sent me every day, I ate and slept in there, and I gained a lot of weight."

While Xie Jingrui was talking, he had already moved closer to Liu Yueru and whispered in her ear, "Do you want to touch it?"

Liu Yueru's cheeks instantly turned red to her ears and she subconsciously stepped back.

"boom!"

Liu Yueru's waist hit the carriage directly.

"hiss!"

She groaned, and then glared fiercely in the direction of Xie Jingrui.

Seeing that she was getting angry and embarrassed, Xie Jingrui put away the smile on his face.

Liu Yueru took the lead and walked towards the Liu Mansion.

Xie Jingrui strode forward quickly.

The two had just entered the front hall.

Someone came to the palace.

Eunuch Li stood in the courtyard holding the imperial edict with a happy look on his face.

When the people in Liu Mansion saw Eunuch Li coming, they felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Liu Zhengtang smiled and stepped forward to test, "What business did you have in our Liu residence today, eunuch?"

Everyone looked at each other, with nervousness on their faces.

Eunuch Li suddenly laughed. "Master Liu, you don't have to be so nervous. We are just here for formalities. This is a great joyous event."

Eunuch Li looked at Xie Jingrui on the side.

Xie Jingrui urged with a sullen face, "Eunuch Li should read out the imperial edict as soon as possible."

"Yes!" Eunuch Li opened the imperial edict in his hand.

His eyes swept over Liu Yueru, and he said with a smile, "Liu Yueru, accept the order."

Everyone in the Liu Mansion knelt together.
