Empress is a sick beauty

With the current form and Mr. Yu's style of work, it is likely that the accountant worked hard for him because of the latter, and it is also the only bargaining chip that can force the accountant to submit.

Perhaps it was infected by Ling Xi, this person can always show a smile, warm and peaceful, making people feel like a spring breeze.

Yun Yi couldn't help but smile a little more, "Although Mr. Ling doesn't touch court affairs, he has a delicate heart. He is good at investigating cases and has the potential to be an official."

Ling Xi shook her head again and again, "Your Highness, I just thought of it suddenly. I have never thought about such things as entering the court and becoming an official."

Yun Yi heard that there was something in his words, and inadvertently asked, "Young Master Ling doesn't seem to like court affairs?"

Ling Xi didn't know how to explain it for a while, he himself had no likes or dislikes towards the court, but his mother seemed to be quite sensitive about the affairs of the court, and subtly kept him out of contact.

"Mother said before she was alive that she only wanted me to be safe and happy. In the place of court, in troubled times, I look glamorous. If I'm not careful, I might lose my life." Ling Xi couldn't help laughing even more when she recalled her childhood. Gentle, "Your Highness is laughing."

Yun Yi heard the words but said seriously, "Lingtang is a person with insight."

When Ling Xi mentioned her mother, she couldn't help but say a few more words, "Yes, mother knows a lot of friends in the world, and she has a wide range of knowledge. She not only has the pride of the children of the world, but also the talent of a lady."

Ever since he was sensible, only his mother and grandma accompanied him at home, and his mother never mentioned his father, until she was dying, she simply told his father's name and life.After learning the cause of his father's death, Ling Xi thought that this was probably the reason why his mother didn't want him to enter the court.

The yamen servants who were looking for Mr. Accountant's family have already been dispatched to the mansion, and the yamen servants were dispatched on the surface, but Yunyi secretly sent his own guards to investigate.The whereabouts of Mr. Accountant's family members are indeed unknown, and the yamen servants have searched for him without success, and the only hope is pinned on Yun Yi's men.

Ling Xi still lives in Xu's mansion and waits for the good news. During this period, he asked Ah Jiu to inquire about the recent situation of Shen's mansion. It stands to reason that once Shen Rui's arrest happened, how could the bosses of the chamber of commerce be able to stay still? .But according to Ah Jiu's report, there were no major events in Shen's residence in the past few days, and everything was as usual.

Reassuring, Ling Xi couldn't help sighing, those chamber of commerce bosses are really calm, they deserve to be in big business.

"My lord, this servant has put the book on the table. If you want to read it, you can read it anytime."

Ling Xi raised her eyes, and saw Ah Jiu carrying a stack of books in her arms, "Where did you get the books?"

Ah Jiu neatly stacked the books, raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat, "It was sent by His Royal Highness Yi Wang, who said he was afraid that you would be bored in the mansion. Knowing that you usually read books for entertainment, I borrowed some from Xu's mansion."

Ling Xi went to the case, flipped through two books at random, one was the policy of governing the country, and the other was the art of war.Looking further down, there is also a collection of poems and songs.At the bottom, a different booklet was exposed, and Ling Xi pulled it out to have a look, immediately delighted.

There is also unofficial history of martial arts in the magistrate's yamen.

During the days in Shen's residence, he really didn't pick anything to pass the time, he read all kinds of books, from government officials to folk tales, as long as it was in his hands, he read it all.

"When you were taking a nap at noon, His Royal Highness Yi Wang came down to see that you were resting and didn't let the servants disturb you." Now when Ah Jiu mentioned His Highness Yi Wang, he was not as frightened as he was at the beginning.Especially seeing that he took care of his young master in every possible way, he already decided in his heart that King Yi must be a good person.

Unexpectedly, this Yi Wang seemed not approachable at all, but his thoughts were so delicate and thoughtful.Perhaps he was such a gentle and caring person, but because he was in the royal family and all forces were watching him covetously, he had to wrap himself up.

"The next time His Royal Highness King Yi comes again, tell me whether I am awake or asleep."

Ah Jiu smiled and responded, "Okay."

As soon as the words fell, Ling Xi heard the movement outside, he took the lead to go around the screen, and he saw Yun Yi who had just entered the door.

"Your Highness."

Yunyi held a letter in his hand, the letter was torn, and he handed it to him as soon as he came up.

"Mr. Accountant's family has been found. You guessed right, they are indeed in the hands of the boss. Now they have been taken to the magistrate's yamen to meet with Mr. Accountant."

Ling Xi roughly scanned the letter, it contained the accountant's confession and his own fingerprints, now that the confession has been retracted, the eldest brother's innocence has finally been proven.

Seeing his happy face, Yun Yi said again, "The businessman from Xuzhou has been found."

Ling Xi was taken aback, "He hasn't left yet? Doesn't it mean that there are no businessmen from Xuzhou?"

"It's true that he didn't come from Xuzhou. That person was hired by Boss Yu to act in a play, just to deceive the Shen family. Boss Yu had long intended to seize the position of chairman, but he didn't know how to do it so he made such a bad plan." As he said, Yun Yi took out another confession, "And what happened at the Lantern Festival was also done by him."

Ling Xi looked at the confession and was secretly amazed. It turned out that the people who were frightened by the fire-breathing performance at the Lantern Festival were bought by Boss Yu, in order to separate him from the people in Shen's house and make them easier to tie up.He threatened Shen Rui to give up the position of president, but something went wrong.

"This person has vicious intentions and has been arrested and brought to justice."

Ling Xi raised her head, "Brother can regain his freedom?"

Yun Yi nodded, "Of course."

They were talking, on the other side, Shen Rui was already outside the door accompanied by the prefect Xu himself.

"Ling Xi!"

Ling Xi wanted to go up to him, but Shen Rui quickly ran a few steps when he saw this, "Don't run, it's better for my brother, nothing happened."

"Brother was wronged."

Shen Rui is Master Shen's only child. He has been placed with high hopes since he was a child. He is also up-to-date and outstanding in everything. He has never suffered such a bad thing.

"I'm not wronged. With Ling Xi running around for my brother, how can I still feel wronged?" Shen Rui turned to Yunyi, cupped his hands and saluted, "Thank you for your help this time, His Highness King Yi. Shen has offended me a lot in the past, so I hope you Your Highness Haihan."

Yun Yi glanced at Ling Xi, and said, "Mr. Shen doesn't have to be like this, this king has never taken it to heart."

However, Shen Rui refused to give up and insisted on apologizing to King Yi, "I don't want to thank you for your kindness. If Your Highness is free some other day, you can come to Shen's residence, and Shen will host a banquet to thank His Highness for your kindness."

It was rare for Yun Yi to say a few words of politeness, Xiao Zuo refused, but finally agreed.

Once Shen's mansion was cleared of its grievances, Shen Rui was still the original president, and those gentlemen who had come to the mansion to make troubles to ask for money seemed to have automatically changed the past, and they still circled around Shen Rui, trying their best to flatter them.

Ling Xi followed Shen Rui back to the mansion, only to find that the books on the desk had somehow moved back with him.He wanted to ask someone to send it back, but the escorting guards insisted that King Yi had told him that the book was given to him, and no one was allowed to take it back unless King Yi came in person.

He was thinking that his elder brother had invited Yun Yi as a guest, anyway, he would come sooner or later, and it would not be too late when he came.

So in the past few days, he has never left the book in his hand, and he has never left the book in his hand, but he has lost a little bit of thought about going out of the house.

"No matter how beautiful the book is, you can't read it all the time, and you're not afraid of damaging your eyes."

Ling Xi laughed, put down the book, and obediently drank the medicine.

"Why did the elder brother suddenly change his attitude, just because of His Royal Highness Yi Wang's great help this time?" Ling Xi understands her elder brother. Apart from doing business, his elder brother is mostly straightforward in other matters. I will treat that person with all my heart and soul.If one person is not pleasing to the eye, no matter who he is, he will never compromise easily.

Shen Rui could hear his younger brother's teasing, but his expression looked serious, "He is a prince with a high position and authority, so it is not as good as us to offend him. Besides..." He looked at Ling Xi, "If he is sincere It might be a good umbrella to make friends with you."

Although Ling Xi was born in a small town and grew up in the countryside, she has now moved to the Shen residence.He is a few years older than Ling Xi, and he has known about his life experience from his father for a long time. Although he is still staying in the Shen residence, what if one day he cannot stay?At that time, Shen Fu's hand might not be able to stretch that long, who will protect him?

He originally thought that Yunyi was not a good choice because he couldn't see through this person and didn't know what this person meant.Now that man is a majestic prince, he is willing to turn a fight into a treasure for Ling Xi, and save himself who has offended him so much. It can be seen that Ling Xi really has weight in the heart of His Royal Highness Yi Wang.

Ling Xi blinked, seeing that Shen Rui looked at him more and more like an old father sending his son away, "Brother, what's wrong with you, why are you looking at me like this?"

"It's nothing." Shen Rui pursed her lips and smiled, and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, I just thought, time flies so fast, and you will grow up in a blink of an eye."

Ling Xi looked at him suspiciously, no matter how he looked at him, he felt that his eldest brother was strangely nervous, as if he was about to start a family and start a career, and left for a long time.

Just when he was wondering, there was a sudden commotion outside the door. The two brothers looked at each other and left the room one after another.

I saw the butler pacing back and forth, Ah Jiu was standing in front of him, and there was also a strange woman who was holding her dress tightly with both hands, as if she was very nervous.

"Ah Jiu, why did you bring an outsider into the mansion? Even if you think she is pitiful, at best you can give her some money. The eldest son has explained that the mansion does not accept people of unknown origin."

Ah Jiu scratched her head, "But she was so hungry that she fainted at the door, I can't just leave her alone. And the housekeeper, look, she is a weak girl, and if she gave her money, she might be robbed. Why don't you be more accommodating and let her stay and be a sweeping maid in the mansion."

The housekeeper sighed, "It's not that I'm stubborn, I don't know how to feel sorry for others, it's because the eldest son has explained it. Girl, how about I pack some clothes and dry food for you, and then introduce you to a place where the helper can go."

As soon as Ah Jiu looked up, he saw Ling Xi and the two of them, and immediately ran over, "Master, can we take this girl in? She has no father or mother, and is homeless. It's so pitiful. Don't you often say that you want to see her on the way?" Don't you want to draw your sword to help?"

Ling Xi passed him and looked at the young girl, seeing that her clothes were ragged, and she could no longer see her original appearance, only her exposed face and hands were covered with mud, but they still couldn't hide her delicate appearance.

This person doesn't look like a beggar who has been wandering outside all year round, but rather a young lady from a poor family.
