When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!
Chapter 28 Intimidation
Xu Xinyue smiled faintly: "We don't know each other, but you believe me."
"It's just a bargain. Anyone who wants to know is welcome at any time."
Xu Xinyue wanted to say something else, but Qin Yuechuan suddenly reminded her: "The effect of the medicine is about to wear off. We must leave as soon as possible."
She glanced at Xu Yuanshan reluctantly, and finally stood up and left: "Daddy, wait for me, I will clear your name and rescue you."
Xu Yuanshan's eyes filled with tears: "Dad knows, you should leave now!"
He then kowtowed solemnly to Qin Yuechuan: My son has no mother to rely on, and I have a rough idea of what the Xu family is like. Now I am in prison!
I only hope that the prince can protect my son in this matter. If there is a day, I will repay you with my life. I am willing to serve the prince."
Such a sincere heart moved Qin Yuechuan as well as Xu Xinyue.
Qin Yuechuan solemnly promised: "I know what's going on. You wait here for good news. I will definitely protect your beloved."
Xu Yuanshan knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
When I looked up again, there was no one in front of me.
The two of them returned the same way they came.
However, Xu Xinyue seemed to be in a very low mood on the return journey, with his head lowered and not uttering a word.
The little sparrow stopped chirping.
When her toes touched the ground of Prince Rong's Mansion, Xu Xinyue still lowered her head and thanked Qin Yuechuan softly in a hoarse voice:
“Thank you, Your Highness Prince Rong, for taking me with you.
After dawn today, I will leave Prince Rong's Mansion and head to the villa outside Beijing."
Qin Yuechuan rubbed his brows with his hands, feeling a little distressed. The little sparrow had obviously cried quietly.
He also didn't know how to comfort her.
"Just now I promised Master Xu San that I would take care of you, and now you want to leave Prince Rong's Mansion. Isn't that putting me in a heartless and ungrateful situation?"
Xu Xinyue hurriedly looked up and explained: "No, that's not what I meant.
I feel that if I live in Prince Rong’s mansion for a long time, it will damage your reputation. Besides…”
Moreover, when he was pursuing Xu Mingxi, Xu Mingxi had never lived there. So... wouldn't it make her seem too casual?
Qin Yuechuan frowned, feeling that her next words would not please him.
Sure enough, she replied in a lower and lower voice:
"Besides, you are already engaged...it's even more inappropriate..."
Qin Yuechuan felt the veins on his forehead throbbing:
"You heard our conversation that day, I will cancel the engagement myself.
Originally, on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wanted to ask my father to allow me to cancel the engagement, but unexpectedly Xu Mingxi... You don't have to worry about this."
Xu Xinyue murmured even more quietly: "How can I not have worries? You don't have to worry about getting married, but I can't..."
Qin Yuechuan's hearing ability was very good due to his martial arts training. He felt the veins on his forehead throbbing even faster. He spoke each word with emphasis:
"What did you say."
"Ah, nothing, I still feel that... it's not quite right."
Just as her father said, Xu Xinyue was alone, and the only living people around her were the two little maids.
It's not that we can't give her a guard to protect her secretly, but it's better to keep the person under our nose and feel more at ease.
Besides, he still had a favor to repay, so how could he let her wander around alone?
The two of them stood in silence. Looking at her furry head, Qin Yuechuan finally made a decision: "How about this, you pretend to be my follower, disguised as a man, and stay by my side for the near future. Is this feasible?"
Xu Xinyue's eyes suddenly lit up.
A follower who is a woman dressed as a man will never show her true face?
"feasible!"
"Then... your recent name will be... Qingxian"
"Yes, yes, I understand, Your Majesty."
Now that the issue of whether to stay or leave had been resolved, Xu Xinyue did not delay any longer. She said goodbye to Qin Yuechuan and turned back to her courtyard.
In the dark, Qingyang, Qingfeng and Qingming saw the whole scene and looked at each other in surprise.
Qingyang: "Why is the situation not going right..."
Qingfeng: "Why is there suddenly a new friend? Shouldn't it be..."
Qingming: "..."
After returning to the guest house, Xu Xinyue continued to think about what Xu Yuanshan had said.
She was still very happy because there was a little clue in this matter.
What businessmen value most is integrity. Dad’s cargo boxes have never had any interlayers, so this must be the work of someone else.
How can we prove that these works were not done by my father?
Who wants to frame Daddy again?
If possible, I would like to check the boxes and maybe find something.
She thought: Those goods must have been seized by the Ministry of Justice as evidence... I have visited the prison... I just want to see some physical evidence... It shouldn't be difficult for him...
Thinking of this, Xu Xinyue felt that she should talk to Qin Yuechuan about this matter again tomorrow.
The next day, Xu Xinyue did not find Qin Yuechuan in Prince Rong's Mansion. After asking the butler Zhang Bo, she learned that today was the day he officially took over the "Boyunsi".
There are so many handover matters, manpower, and account books from previous years... I'm afraid I won't be back until very late today.
Xu Xinyue understood and didn't ask any more questions. She just wanted to wait for him to come back and discuss it with him.
At the same time, Qin Yuechuan was sitting calmly in the main hall of the "Boyunsi" government office, flipping through the account book in his hand as if he was just taking a cursory look.
The yamen official Zhu Yingnian was a short and fat man in his forties or fifties. He was round all over, and even his fingers were thick, fat and greasy.
A pair of rat eyes reflected his guilty conscience as he stood tremblingly by the side, constantly instructing his subordinates to pour tea and water for Qin Yuechuan, showing his flattery.
"I am very pleased that Your Highness Prince Rong has come in person. If Your Highness needs anything or has any questions, please feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer your questions."
He couldn't help but sneer in his heart: This yamen official is really powerful. A few days ago, Qingfeng stole the account book of the "Boating and Transport Bureau" and gave it to him. It has not been "returned to the original owner" yet. I originally wanted to punish him for his actual crime, but unexpectedly, he took out another identical account book.
It's really interesting.
Sure enough, it is a cunning rabbit with three caves.
I don’t know how many copies he prepared just in case.
Qin Yuechuan, knowing it was fake, had no intention of looking at it anymore. He raised his head and looked at Zhu Yingnian who was glancing around at the side.
The aura is cold and intimidating.
Zhu Yingnian only felt the scorching heat, the air around him quickly condensed, and he shivered uncontrollably.
"I have just arrived and have taken over the Port Transportation Department from Prince Qi. There is still one thing I do not understand."
Zhu Yingnian replied tremblingly: "Your Highness, what is unclear?"
"My 'Port and Transport Company' has been collecting commissions from cargoes over the years, and most of the profits collected are 30% of the cargoes. How come the amount listed in the account book is so little?"
Zhu Yingnian mustered up the courage to answer: "Your Highness, you may not know that the profits collected by our company are not taken by ourselves. Most of them are presented to His Majesty. I dare not keep them for myself..."
They were so bold that they directly pushed the blame onto the emperor. The emperor rewarded officials, princes, princesses, etc. in countless amounts every year, so there was really no way to investigate.
"Is that so? This prince is very familiar with the Minister of Revenue Zhou Guangliang. He has talked to this prince more than once. In the past two years, the quality of the Dongzhu provided by the Port Transportation Department has been much worse than in previous years. Even the quantity has been decreasing year by year..."
Zhu Yingnian was sweating profusely.
Qin Yuechuan continued, "The head of the Imperial Hospital, Doctor Hu, also said that the quality of borneol in recent years is really unsightly, and the amount sent is also less than in previous years..."
Zhu Yingnian was sweating even more, and his brown official robe looked as if someone had poured a basin of water over his head.
He fell to his knees with a "pop" sound.
