I traveled through time and became an unmarried mother-to-be, others are farming and I am enjoying t

Regarding the emperor's words, Xiao Jing was not surprised at all, "Wei Chen feels that King Yu has a pure heart. If he had not been courageous and careful in this trip to the southwest, he would never have been able to find out the robbers and their relatives." Those officials who are colluding with them!"

The emperor sighed, "Let me think about it!" He looked at Xiao Jing, "You have worked hard along the way and were injured again, so go back and get some medicine first!"

"Yes! Wei Chen resigns!" Xiao Jing exited the imperial study and saw Eunuch De standing by the door waiting. Eunuch De hurriedly bowed to him and respectfully sent him away.

After Xiao Jing left, the emperor immediately summoned Nangong Yu. Nangong Yu still looked careless and uninterested in making progress. The emperor looked at him and sighed.

"Brother Emperor, what are your orders for me to come here?" Nangong Yu saw that the emperor was so worried, and he hurriedly bowed and asked seriously.

"Dali Temple has nothing to do with the officials brought back from the southwest. After all this time, they still refuse to confess! What do you think we should do with them?"

"Brother Emperor, even all their tortures can't make them talk, so what can I do? Brother Emperor, I am the only one who is ignorant and incompetent, please spare me!" Nangong Yu sat down on the ground and shouted with a sad face. .

"What are you talking about!" The emperor yelled, snapping at the table, "Aren't you even willing to help me solve my worries? Fortunately, King An just recommended you to me!"

"I..." Nangong Yu pouted and looked at the emperor, "But what can I do!"

"Tomorrow you will go to Dali Temple to serve as the Minister of Dali Temple, and you will specialize in investigating the robbery of disaster relief food in the southwest. This case may be related to the royal foundation of our Nangong family. You must not neglect it and must take it seriously."

Seeing the emperor's solemn expression, Nangong Yu knew that the matter was serious and did not dare to neglect it. He immediately stood up and responded respectfully: "Yes! I will do my best to investigate this case."

The next day, the current Minister of Dali Temple was dismissed from his official position, and Nangong Yu also went to Dali Temple to take up his post. Xiao Jing also used three days to report all border issues to the emperor. The emperor knew that his heart was in the southwest, so he let him go back to the southwest.

After receiving the order, Xiao Jing took Lou Xingyun and others to the southwest the same day after he went to court.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was finishing the work in the embroidery workshop and calculating wages for the embroiderers. The wages of the embroiderers are paid once a month. The previous wages have been paid monthly, and now only twenty days' wages of the twelfth lunar month are left. The embroiderers' wages are calculated on a piece-by-piece basis, so the more you work, the more you get. After she paid them what they had done, she also distributed cloth, yuba, rice stuffing and other items to each of them as new year's goods.

The embroiderers did not expect that the benefits given to them by the Dong family would be so rich, so they all thanked her profusely.

"Madam is so kind to us, thank you madam!"

"Thank you ma'am!"

"Madam, there's a letter from the capital!" Xuan Ying came back from the city and shouted a letter from a distance.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she was overjoyed and asked Yuan Shiyu and Li Qiaozhen to pay the embroiderers wages and gifts. She took the letter and went back to the house to read it.

"I'm coming back!" Xuan Yue guessed looking at Yuan Chuyi's happy expression.

"Madam, you haven't read the letter yet, so don't rejoice in vain!" Yun Xuan said.

Xuan Yue counted the time and said, "Probably not. Counting the time, I have already returned to the capital from the border! If nothing happens, I should be able to leave the capital and come to the southwest in the next few days! However, the more we do now, the more You can’t rest assured and be vigilant, you still have to follow Madam every step of the way, just in case something unexpected happens!”

Yun Xuan looked at Xuan Yue, "Didn't you secretly deal with the batches of killers who came several times ago? Could it be that they won't give up and will come again?"

There was no peace in the garden these days. Several groups of murderers sneaked in with the intention of harming Yuan Chu Yi. Fortunately, Xuan Yue noticed them all and secretly killed those people without alerting Yuan Chu Yi.

"They have failed repeatedly. I am afraid they will send more powerful experts here. We cannot be careless."

Yun Xuan nodded, "Don't worry, I will follow Madam."

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he returned to the house, went to the crib, stayed with the child, and opened the letter. He saw that the letter was indeed from Xiao Jing, saying that he had returned to the capital safely and would return to the southwest after finishing his errands in a few days. .

She counted the time and found that a few days had passed. Xiao Jing must be on his way to the southwest now.

She raised the letter in her hands to the two children and said happily: "Dabao, Erbao, daddy is coming back. You are going to see daddy soon. Are you happy?"

The two children looked at the open letter, giggled, and stretched out their hands to grab the letter.

"Daddy is coming back. We have to prepare some New Year goods for him to come back for the New Year!"

The next day she was going to the city to do some shopping, but Yunxuan wouldn't let her go out, nor would Fifteen-Sixteen.

"Why can't you let me out? What happened?"

Yuan Chuyi asked.

"It's raining outside and the weather is so cold. Madam, it's better to go out as little as possible!" Xuan Yue said.

Yuan Chuyi tilted his head and looked at him, "You are hiding something from me!"

Xuan Yue smiled awkwardly, "No, how dare I hide anything from you!"

Yuan Chuyi sighed, "Okay! I know you are doing this for my own good!" She knew that Xuan Yue must have a reason for not letting her go out, "Did the killers mentioned last time not leave yet?"

Xuan Yue knew that nothing could be hidden from her, so she could only nod her head truthfully, "I hope Madam will be more careful!"

"I know!" Yuan Chuyi knew that they were doing it for her own good, so she wouldn't go out and take risks. She made a purchase list and asked Xuan Ying to go into the city to purchase.

Two days later, it finally cleared up after several days of rain. Yuan Chu, who had not been out for a long time, entrusted his child to Yun Xuan to take care of her while she went to the strawberry garden to see the strawberries. Although they were going to the strawberry garden, Xuan Yue was still worried and followed her closely.

In the strawberry garden, the strawberries have already produced fruit, but the weather has been cold recently, so the strawberry fruits have ripened slowly, but some of them have fruited early and are already ripe at this time. She went to the garden and picked up two baskets full.

She was carrying the basket out of the strawberry garden when suddenly several men in black appeared on the path in the garden and surrounded her. Xuan Yue appeared in front of her and protected her behind her.

Yuan Chuyi looked at these men in black and knew that they must be assassins.

Xuan Yue looked at these people and sneered, "Now I can't even avoid it, it's here in broad daylight! Do you really think our Prince An's Mansion can be bullied?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he let out a loud roar, and in the blink of an eye, a dozen people dressed in black floated out from all over the garden and landed next to them, surrounding the assassins.

Yuan Chuyi looked at these people who suddenly appeared, and then looked at Xuan Yue, "Are these people all guards of the palace?"

Xuan Yue nodded, "Xuan Wei of the Royal Palace!"
