Treating the Concubine, Eliminating the Wife: Reborn, I Refuse to Marry the Scumbag and Marry the Pr

Lu Mingxuan's lights went out, but Xie Tingzhou did not leave. After a moment, he lightly climbed onto the roof.

A soft sob could be heard in the room.

I thought she was getting stronger, but in fact she was just leaving her wounds to lick.

Xie Tingzhou lightly lifted his clothes and sat gently on the roof, looking at the endless night in a daze.

Shen Yu was on duty the next day. When she woke up in the morning, her eyes were as swollen as walnuts. After hearing Erya's instructions, she rolled them in eggs for a long time before they were slightly relieved.

The weather has been getting warmer these days, and the snowfall a few days ago must have been the last of this winter.

Shen Yu stood under the eaves and reviewed the ins and outs of the case again.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, Ge Liangji, did not run away when he got involved in this case, so Jiang Lianzhi secretly contacted Xie Tingzhou for two reasons. Either he discovered the problem and wanted Xie Tingzhou to rescue him out of good intentions, or he He knew some signs and wanted to use this to bring down Ge Liangji.

But there is a huge flaw here. Since he knew there was a problem, why didn't he report it directly to the Holy One, instead of using such a roundabout way?

Jiang Mansion, in the study room of Chief Assistant Jiang Yuanqing.

Grandfather and grandson both looked solemn.

Jiang Yuanqing said: "Ge Liangji is inseparable from the Yanliangguan case. Now it depends on how your Majesty decides. If Yanliangguan is defeated, someone will have to bear the blame."

Jiang Lianzhi understood clearly.

Just like in the previous life, Emperor Tongxu couldn't find a reasonable reason to explain to the people even though he knew it was not their problem, so he could only let the rumors go. In the end, Shen Zhongan and Shen Zhao were charged with this crime.

Jiang Yuanqing was silent for a moment and continued: "As soon as Ge Liangji is dismissed, the Ministry of Finance will inevitably use an official to support the affairs. As the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, you are the first choice, but..."

He paused, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and continued: "At this age, he is the first person to take the position of Minister of Household Affairs since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty. It is not a good thing to be promoted too early. What do you think?"

Jiang Lianzhi was silent for a moment and replied: "Lianzhi has no intention of promotion."

Jiang Yuanqing nodded, stroking his long beard and said: "That's it, I'll put this matter down for now, but you should temporarily take over the position of minister of household affairs as minister of household affairs."

"If Jiang Lianzhi was smart enough, he would avoid the edge and not take the position of minister at this time." Shen Yu said while playing chess.

Xie Tingzhou glanced at her and heard her continue: "His qualifications are still a bit shallow after all. He just became the Minister of Household Affairs..."

"Crack-"

Xie Tingzhou threw the piece in his hand back into the chess set.

Shen Yu was interrupted, raised her head and asked: "This has just begun, will your Highness stop now?"

Xie Tingzhou pointed his chin towards the chessboard, "Is there any more left to play?"

Shen Yu stared at the chessboard for a long time, frowned and said: "Why did it end so quickly? This is not my level. I can usually last at least half an hour."

Xie Tingzhou glanced at her, "Do you have enough brains? Just dare to think about other things while playing chess."

Changliu sat on a tree branch and laughed, but Shen Yu gave him a sharp look.

Shen Yu returned the chess pieces to their positions and refused to admit defeat: "Let's play another game."

"The next round will have the same result," Chang Liu said with a smile, "Brother Feng, how about we make a bet?"

Xifeng felt chills all over his body when he shouted Brother Feng. Xian glanced at him and said, "Aren't you disgusting?"

"Let's make a bet," Changliu jumped down from the tree and hooked his arm around Xifeng's neck, "I bet that Your Highness will win, and you bet that Shigure will win, how about that?"

"You are really good at picking," Xifeng sneered, "Why don't you bet on Shigure to win?"

Shen Yu looked on from the side, "I'm sitting here, who are you insulting?"

Changliu laughed, "Sorry, sorry, that's better than this. Let's bet on how long Shigure can last in His Highness' hands. I'll bet for half an hour."

Shen Yu held her chin up and asked, "Can I participate?"

"No! I'm afraid you'll cheat." Changliu refused sternly and said to Xifeng, "The bet is, if you have it, I'll bet two months' salary."

Xi Feng said: "If I win, I can only win one month's salary of mine. If you win, you can win four months of your salary. Is it fair?"

Changliu counted on his fingers and suddenly said: "Your Highness, why are there so many more Xifeng people than me?"

"Because you eat a lot." Shen Yu answered with a smile.

Xie Tingzhou picked the chess pieces leisurely, with a smile on his lips.

Changliu snorted, clasped his hands and bowed to Xie Tingzhou, "Your Highness, whether we win or not depends on you."

Xifeng thought for a while and said, "Then I'll bet for an hour."

Another chess game started, and the two of them were going back and forth. In less than half an hour, Shen Yu showed signs of fatigue after making a move.

Xie Tingzhou twirled a piece of money between his fingertips and looked at her.

Her eyebrows were knotted, and she was about to make a move but pulled it back, feeling that it was wrong to go anywhere.

"Don't delay." Changliu reminded.

Shen Yu glanced at Chang Liu and finally missed it. Xie Tingzhou reached out his hand without thinking.

"Wait a minute," Shen Yu stopped Xie Tingzhou who was about to make a move, "I made the wrong move, this and this don't count."

During those days when they were together day and night, she had developed her face, and discovered that whether it was the legendary god of death on the battlefield or the later gentle and jade-like Young Master Lan Yue, they were not the real Xie Tingzhou.

At least in her opinion, Xie Tingzhou has an excellent temper.

It's just that, except for sometimes being uncertain, I get angry for no reason.

It just so happened that she was born to like to climb along the pole and like to test the bottom line of others. After discovering that Xie Tingzhou had a hard time getting angry, she became bolder.

She moved her head to another position under Xie Tingzhou's silent gaze, and then looked at Xie Tingzhou calmly, "It's your turn, Your Highness."

As long as I am shameless, I will be invincible and I will win this game.

No one has ever seen anyone dare to regret his move in front of Xie Tingzhou.

Konoe under the eaves: "..." Just wait to die, Shigure.

Everyone was waiting to see how their Crown Prince would twist off Shigure's head.

Xi Feng took two steps forward, thinking that he might as well try to persuade him. Shigure Senzuki escorted His Highness to the capital, and when he came back, he was whipped again. He looked like he had lost weight... no, gained a lot of weight.

Oh, right? Why have you gained weight?

Xifeng was thinking about it and forgot to stop the fight, when he saw Xie Tingzhou holding a sunspot and asked calmly: "You won't change this time?"

Xi Feng's jaw suddenly dropped. The guard on the tree shook a little and almost fell down from it.

No, this is still their Highness? Could it be that someone switched the package on the way back to Beijing?

What is this but silent acquiescence? Do you indulge him like this?

It was okay that Xie Tingzhou didn't ask, but Shen Yu wasn't sure about this question. She stared at the chessboard seriously for a long time, but couldn't find the problem.

"I won't change it anymore," she said.

Xie Tingzhou's eyes never left her face, and he slowly pressed the bag in his hand. He was satisfied to see her stretch her neck and frown her eyebrows.

He twitched the corners of his lips slightly and said, "There is no chance to change it."
