Dressed as the villain's stepmother

In the end, King Xiang couldn't hold back his anger and put the porcelain cup in his hand on the table.

"Your wings are getting stronger and stronger now. They say that by now, the clues about the Prime Minister's matter have been investigated, but you still want to continue to investigate."

He really didn't understand why Liao Yunchuan did this.

Not only that Huang Xi had lost contact with the Prime Minister, he also went to give the Prime Minister a beating.

Now, he may have been very vigilant, but Liao Yunchuan now said that he wanted to continue to investigate this matter. How could he find out anything?

"The Prime Minister is very considerate, but it is impossible for him to handle everything in a short time. What's more, doesn't the prince also know what is going on in this border area?"

Liao Yunchuan answered Prince Xiang's questions calmly and calmly.

It is impossible for the Prime Minister to stop because of what he has done, so it is still necessary for them to continue to investigate now.

"Furthermore, the prince must have heard about the recent rampant bandits in the suburbs of the county. In the morning, his majesty also said that he wanted to send people to encircle and suppress them. This would involve a large amount of expenditure. His majesty impartially reported this matter The matter has been assigned to the Prime Minister, how much money can be gained from it?"

Liao Yunchuan then brought up the incident that happened in court during the day. After hearing this, King Xiang could not say anything to refute, and could only conclude that Liao Yunchuan had indeed made up his mind.

Otherwise he wouldn't have said that.

"Okay, since you are determined to do it this way, then I definitely can't stop you, but you have to be careful not to let the Prime Minister make a move when the time comes."

"nature."

Liao Yunchuan responded and then said goodbye to King Xiang.

According to the emperor's arrangement, the team responsible for encircling and suppressing the bandits will set off in two days. As long as he is one step ahead of them, he will be able to find out what is true.

on the carriage.

Although Jiang Lianzhu had her eyes closed, she was always paying attention to what was going on outside.

Lin Suji sat next to her and called softly: "Miss Jiang."

"what happened?"

Jiang Lianzhu opened her eyes suddenly and turned to look at Lin Suji.

She stared at the curtains on the carriage that were constantly being lifted up, as if she was hesitant to speak.

"I...I just seemed to hear the sound of horse hooves coming from outside, and it wasn't just one or two horses."

"what?"

Jiang Lianzhu frowned fiercely.

She had been paying attention to the movements outside just now, and she didn't hear the so-called sound of horse hooves at all.

Is Lin Suji more perceptive than herself, or is her words just to deceive herself.

"It's just outside... If you don't believe what I say, girl, just open this curtain and you will know."

Lin Suji then said again, his voice broken, as if he was really scared.

"The place I'm sitting is quite far away from the curtain. It's better for Miss Lin to help me lift the curtain. We have at least two guards outside. Even if we do encounter bandits, it's not impossible to escape. "

Jiang Lianzhu did not listen to Lin Suji, but spoke lightly.

She had just deliberately pressed her back against the carriage, and her ears were close to listen to the movement outside, but she still did not hear any sound of horse hooves.

In this way, there is only one theory that can be established, that is, Lin Suji is telling lies with his eyes open.

"I--"

"Why don't you dare, Miss Lin? Didn't we all say that there are guards outside, so even if we encounter bandits, we can escape smoothly?"

Jiang Lianzhu continued to ask, with a chill in her voice that she didn't even notice.

Lin Suji gritted his teeth, reached out and grabbed the curtain on the carriage, and lifted it up.

The coachman and two guards outside were frightened by the movement inside them, and immediately turned around and asked: "Miss Jiang, is there something wrong?"

"I didn't hear it, but Miss Lin said she heard a few sounds of horse hooves coming from outside. I was also curious whether she misheard it because he was scared, so I asked her to lift the curtain and take a look. "

Jiang Lianzhu responded and settled the matter.

Lin Suji was talking nonsense just now, but there was no way of knowing why he said that.

The two guards nodded after hearing this, and after saying a few words, they asked them to lower the curtain of the carriage.

The carriage soon stopped in front of an inn, which was lit by a faint candlelight.

The guard first walked into the inn and negotiated with the waiter, then turned around and asked a few people to come down.

The waiter was doing calculations with one hand, and took out a few brands from the drawer with the other, and checked them before handing them over.

"Your Majesty, do you want three upper rooms?"

"Yes."

The guard responded one step ahead.

They were also particular about the money they brought with them on the way, which was only enough for food and accommodation on the road for the past few days. They were afraid that if they brought a little more, they would attract the jealousy of the bandits.

"No, I'll leave this sign here. It's five taels of silver in total. If you want to eat, just sit down and wait for a while. I'll bring you the recipe."

The waiter spoke in a nonchalant manner, threw the three signs on his hand to them, and then pointed to a random location.

Although their inn is located in a remote location, it is almost full at night. The people coming and going are all people in a hurry, and only a few tables can hear low whispers.

The guard first took the coachman to sit down at that table. Jiang Lianzhu then wanted to follow, when she heard Lin Suji's weak voice.

"I, I'm really a little tired, so I went up to rest first."

"it is good."

Jiang Lianzhu responded, secretly keeping an eye on it.

She and Lin Suji lived in the same room, and if she made any movements at night, she would be able to detect it immediately.

This is much safer.

This person ordered a few dishes at random and asked the waiter to take the recipes back.

The dishes were brought out quickly. The two guards and the driver were hungry all the way, so they immediately picked up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes. Jiang Lianzhu picked some light dishes and didn't eat too much.

She listened to the conversation at the next table, and her chewing speed continued to slow down.

"Brother, if we go a little further, it's someone else's territory. How much money will we have to pay to go there this time?"

"What's there to worry about if you don't have enough money? Didn't I tell you that I have some friendship with the owner of the cottage? It's just a few dollars and I don't necessarily want it, not to mention how much wealth I have walked along the way. People, just sharing their money won’t be enough!”

"Yes, it's my eldest brother's thoughtful thought. Then we brothers should have a good rest so that we can get up early in the morning and go on our way."
