The two looked at each other, an undercurrent surging.

The eldest princess flicked her sleeves and said angrily: "I know what you suspect, so I might as well tell you clearly that Ling Yi lived in the eldest princess' mansion on the days when Mrs. Hou was killed, so she has no suspicion at all!"

"That's it."

"Humph, even if Lao Qi wants to solve the case as soon as possible and perform well in front of the emperor, he can't just accuse people unjustly!"

"The eldest princess misunderstood, I just asked casually."

"No matter who of you or your husband asks Ling Yi these questions again, I won't be polite!"

After saying that, the eldest princess left with an angry look.

After the eldest princess left, Zi Jin came in.

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said: "It seems that the news about Murong Lingyi and Mrs. Marquis of Wuchang's discord is true. No matter what, keep an eye on Murong Lingyi for the next few days, maybe you will find something."

"Yes."

"It's just that His Highness has been investigating this case for the past few days. He leaves early and comes home late. Not to mention a breakthrough, it seems difficult to move forward."

"By the way, Your Highness is back."

"What about people?"

"His Highness seemed to have had a fight with someone. He had a bruise on his face. He went to the garden behind with his head down and didn't know what he was doing."

"You fought with someone? And you got hurt?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yunxiang naturally couldn't sit still and hurriedly got up and walked to the back garden.

When he came to the backyard, Liu Yunxiang saw Yan Mu sitting cross-legged by the pond, dejected. Xingyi and Yan'er were beside him, one holding a wooden sword and the other holding a stone.

"Dad, tell me who bullied you and I will avenge you!" Xingyi held up the stone and looked angry.

"I know martial arts, I'll knock him down!" Yan'er said, waving the wooden sword in his hand.

"Brother, you will stay behind later, sister will protect you!"

"I want to protect my sister!"

Yan Mu sighed and pointed at the injuries on his face, "I've been beaten, can you two make it?"

Xingyi stretched out two fat and tender little fingers and said, "There are two of us."

Yan'er tilted her head and looked at Yan Mu, and said seriously: "If we can't beat him, we can still bite him."

Yan Mu smiled and held the two children in his arms, "It's not like I can't beat him."

"Tch, it's obvious that I can't beat him."

"It's not good to talk big."

Yan Mu smiled: "Really, he is just a grown man crying, I am embarrassed to hit him."

"Men still cry?"

"I won't cry anymore."

"So, I was stunned, and then he was shameless and took the opportunity to punch me."

"He's so bad!"

"Bad!"

Liu Yunxiang walked over. When the two children saw her, they rushed to her to complain, saying that someone was bullying their father.

"Mom is helping daddy to vent his anger, but you..." Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes, "Can you write what sir asked you to write?"

The eyes of the two little guys were wider than the other, and they obviously forgot about it and hurried away.

Jin Yan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, it's okay. Sir, he even praised me. She is the little miss. Those words are really good. Sir, after teaching so many students, no one can write so ugly."

After Jin Yan finished speaking, he went after the two children. Liu Yunxiang smiled and shook his head, sat down next to Yan Mu, and then tilted his head to look at his face, which was indeed blue.

"Who hit it?"

"Xue Changfeng."

Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment and said, "The eldest son of the Wuchang Marquis Mansion, Murong Lingyi's husband."

"Oh, it's him."

"You investigated the case for his mother, but he beat you. Why?"

"Who knows, I just asked about the case normally, but he suddenly went crazy and said that I insulted him and that he was mentally ill. Before I said anything, he even cried. I was too embarrassed to beat him back for such a grown man. ." When this matter was mentioned, Yan Mu became very angry and inexplicable.

Liu Yunxiang thought about this for a moment, "Did you mention Murong Lingyi?"

"Yeah, I have a few questions to ask her."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Is there a possibility that Xue Changfeng knows that his wife doesn't love him, but she loves you?"

Yan Mu was surprised, "You said Murong Lingyi loves me?"

"You are her good seventh brother."

Yan Mu understood now, but he was still very angry, "That's none of my business. Why is he angry at me?"

"It's really unreasonable." Liu Yunxiang mentioned that he asked the eldest princess today about the conflict between Murong Lingyi and Mrs. Wuchang Hou. "The eldest princess was very excited. She seemed to know something and was deliberately hiding it."

"I asked Zhou Li whether she was pregnant, and the breakthrough point was the little palace maid. But I almost searched the palace and couldn't find the little palace maid. But there is no rush. Just investigate this case slowly so as not to attract anyone's attention."

Liu Yunxiang nodded. The emperor asked him to investigate this case and wanted to reuse him, but he still had concerns in his heart. It was wise to show his clumsiness appropriately at this time.

"The eldest princess and her daughter have apologized to you, do you feel comfortable?" Yan Mu asked.

Liu Yunxiang rested his head on Yan Mu's shoulder, "It feels so comfortable."

"The fire at the Princess Royal Mansion was so big that day that it almost burned down the front yard."

"But they can only endure this tone and have to come and apologize to me. I can express this tone thanks to His Highness. If Your Highness is capable, I will have the confidence."

"You are quite capable."

"Your Highness is more capable."

The corner of Yan Mu's mouth twitched, "Let's stop complimenting each other."

Liu Yunxiang smiled sweetly, and while the atmosphere was just right, he wanted to tilt his head and kiss her secretly, but Yan Mu guarded her and separated her face with his hands.

"Don't get carried away."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "It makes me so greedy."

"Are you still pretending to be sick tomorrow?"

Liu Yunxiang stretched out his arms and legs, "Stop pretending, it's time to find Qin Fei when that bitch started to vent his anger!"

The next day, Liu Yunxiang went to the palace to meet the Holy Emperor, as it was expected that the court was about to begin.

The emperor's face was filled with sadness when he saw Liu Yunxiang. His face immediately dissipated a lot, but when he thought of summoning her, she still resisted, which inevitably made her angry.

"I heard that you are sick, very seriously?"

In the study room, the emperor sat on the dragon chair and glanced at Liu Yunxiang coolly.

Liu Yunxiang pretended to cough twice, "Yes, but when His Majesty summons me, I will come into the palace as soon as I can get up."

Shengjing was in chaos, and the emperor had no intention of pursuing Liu Yunxiang, and said bluntly: "Do you still have food?"

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "My wife has just raised [-] stones of grain and handed it over to the Ministry of Household Affairs. There is really no surplus grain in the treasury at the moment, but there is some in the north of the town."

The emperor was overjoyed and said, "Then send someone to transport it quickly!"

As long as there is food, Shengjing's crisis can be resolved.

Liu Yunxiang said, "If I can help relieve the emperor's worries, I will naturally do my best, but..."

"Just what?"

"Nowadays, Zhenbei is not under the jurisdiction of Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. To put it bluntly, my grain is under the eyes of others. A few days ago, I asked my subordinates to transport grain to Zhenbei, but it was robbed halfway."

"what?"

"Say they're bandits."

"Then what did Qin Fei say?"

"He also said they were bandits, and enthusiastically sent troops to suppress the bandits, but only five thousand stones were recovered from the ten thousand stones, and the remaining five thousand stones disappeared."

"It's half folded."

"Yes, so I don't dare to let my subordinates transport it any more. There are originally fifty thousand dan, but if they are discounted in half, there will only be twenty-five thousand dan left. If the discount is even more, how can we solve Shengjing's difficulties?"

After speaking, Liu Yunxiang lowered her eyes. She had said everything she needed to say, and the emperor had to think about the rest.

After a while, the emperor said: "I will order Qin Feishi to personally escort this batch of grain back to the capital. If there is one stone missing, I will ask him why."

"Your Majesty is wise."

"It's also time to take back the Zhenbei military power."
