Jiang Ce stretched lazily on the spot, stood up and said: "Brother Yongwei has a beautiful woman to accompany him, so I won't join in the fun."

Cui Yongwei was holding Qiu Xue's hand, and in the midst of his busy schedule he raised his eyelids and glanced at him.

"Brother Jiang, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Qiu Xueying's pink lips, and he thought: I wonder what it tastes like?

If you are thinking about other things, the words you say may sound absent-minded.

Jiang Ce smiled wantonly, put his arm around the other singer's shoulders, and rubbed her exposed shoulders with his thumb.

"I've paid for the room. Let's go our separate ways. See you tomorrow."

With a beautiful woman in his arms, Cui Yongwei had no time to deal with him and just responded casually.

As soon as he stepped out of the room, the smile on Jiang Ce's face disappeared.

He was unhappy about letting Qiu Xue serve that bastard named Cui.

He slapped the singer's butt with a cold face and said, "Go and clean up a room for me. It has to be clean."

In this den of extravagance and decadence, everything else is easy except being “clean”.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, the singer hurriedly responded.

A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Ce lay on the plain dark blue satin quilt with his hands folded behind his head, thinking about his worries.

Cui Yongwei is a dog who looks righteous but is actually a thief and a whore at heart.

I didn't expect it to be so easy.

The rest depends on Qiu Xue's ability.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

There was a knock on the door and the singer came in with a tray, smiling like a flower.

She placed the wine and food on the tray one by one on the eight-immortal table and asked with a smile, "Master, the night is long, do you want me to accompany you?"

"roll!"

Jiang Ce shouted loudly, scaring the singer so much that her hands trembled and the wine spilled out of the glass.

"Forget it, come back in an hour or so."

Jiang Ce changed his mind again.

Since Cui Yongwei was going to stay overnight, he didn't want to reveal any flaws.

Right now, he needs to calm down.

The next day, the Lantern Festival.

Every household is decorated with lights, and both sides of the street are lined with light stands hung with colorful lights, stretching along the east-west streets.

Among them, the lantern tower built under the supervision of the imperial court was the most outstanding.

People got up early and made careful preparations for the annual lantern festival in the evening.

The brothel, however, was a different story.

Without the camouflage of the night, the entire alley and the pavilions and towers inside looked dull in the daytime.

In the courtyard, there was a yawning woman washing clothes, and a turtle dozed off leaning against the door frame.

It wasn't until noon that people started to get up.

"I'm leaving now. I'll come see you another day."

Cui Yongwei sat at the head of the bed, stroking Qiu Xue's long hair reluctantly.

He didn't expect that he could have such a ridiculous night, get up late, and still be reluctant to leave.

He had clearly told his wife before coming that he would be back home before curfew.

Unexpectedly, it tasted really good.

No wonder some people say that a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover.

"Let's go, sir."

Qiu Xue hugged the quilt, her pretty face full of charm and spring.

This made Cui Yongwei stop, turn around, move closer to her, lift her chin with his right hand and kiss her.

Qiu Xue laughed, rubbed his hand, and called the maid to come in to see the guest off.

After he left, she put on her outer robe and walked to the window, pushed open the window with a hollow carving of crabapple branches a little, and watched Cui Yongwei being escorted out by the old man with his back bent.

"I'll sleep a little longer, don't disturb me."

Qiu Xue gave an order and drove everyone out of the room before walking to the dressing table.

She dipped her hand in some rouge and quickly drew a shape on the flowery paper.

Two hours later, the flowery note with a strong rouge scent came into Yan Changqing's hands.

Looking at the shape above, he knew what was going on and went to Huamu Hall with the flower paper in his pocket.

"Exactly the same."

Qin Yaoguang took out the birthmark picture she had drawn earlier and compared it carefully, and they were exactly the same.

The most obvious one is the small dot below the right edge.

Birthmarks tend to deform slightly with age, but this little red dot is small enough that it barely changes at all.

From this we can see that Cui Yongwei is not the nephew of Duke Cui at all. He is the illegitimate son born to the concubine in the village.

The child delivered by Nanny Hu.

"how do you want to do it?"

Yan Changqing looked at the two pictures and asked Qin Yaoguang.

Since it concerns the Cui family, her opinion will of course take precedence.

"The Cui family has existed for hundreds of years and has a large business..."

Qin Yaoguang pondered for a moment and said, "Hit the snake at its weakest point. If we are to do this, we must not let them have a chance to turn the tables."

"Why not wait for Qingbai to come back? If we get evidence of his crime, we can attack him together."

The fact that Cui Yongwei is an illegitimate child is at most a reflection of Mr. Cui's personal moral flaws.

The person who restrained him is now dead.

If it were revealed like this, Cui Yongwei could still pretend to be innocent to gain sympathy, and then act out an act of recognizing his father without letting bygones be bygones.

With the word "filial piety" in mind, not only will his status as one of the Nine Ministers not be shaken, he may even win a lot of goodwill.

How innocent he is!

It’s not his fault that he became an illegitimate child. He has worked diligently for the country and the people for so many years. Is he going to be denied like this?

Unless there is evidence to prove that he is not working for the country and the people, but for his own selfish interests.

"it is good."

Yan Changqing said: "We also need to investigate Shunyu Canal Transport in detail. Maybe we can find clues about his collusion with Prince Ruyang."

The river used to transport grain passed through the fiefdom of King Ruyang.

The two of them had long suspected that the Cui family was secretly colluding with Prince Ruyang, but they had no evidence.

Empty words.

Over the years, King Ruyang has sent large amounts of tribute during every festival and paid taxes and grain on time, allowing the people in his fiefdom to live and work in peace and contentment.

The emperor was so happy that he smiled happily, and Xie Shu also relaxed his guard.

Qin Yaoguang knew, however, that Prince Ruyang's desire to become emperor had never been extinguished.

However, after experiencing a failure, he became more patient and cautious. He used money to infiltrate various forces in the capital, and after he was sure that everything was safe, he tried his best to hit the target with one strike.

The original book mainly revolves around Zhou Qinghe and the Sixth Prince, and Prince Ruyang, as the biggest villain in the book, is just a foil.

There is no detailed description about his specific power.

Now it seems that with the Cui family as Prince Ruyang's internal supporters in the capital, it is no wonder that he dared to rebel.

In this case, let’s get rid of the Cui family first.

If one of King Ruyang's wings had been clipped, the later period would not have been as tragic as in the original book.

More importantly, since the Cui family has no important plot, it can be changed.

Qin Yaoguang secretly clenched his fists.

As soon as everything is in place, we can avenge the innocent people who were forced to relocate and the Green Guards who died in the snow.

Seeing that she was in a different mood, Yan Changqing whispered to comfort her: "Don't worry, we can do it."

No one knows better than him the torment of waiting for revenge.

Qin Yaoguang nodded.

She believed that she could do it.

"Master, the second young master is here." Chunfen reported from outside the door.

"Let him in."

Qin Yaoguang's brows softened.

The Lantern Festival is Yan Yuanan’s birthday.
