After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

Su Qingcheng was not surprised at all by her boss's escape. She had never doubted Wu Ya and Fu Yi's abilities. She didn't need to do anything, just stand there and wait.

"Boss, I haven't finished talking yet. Why are you running?" Seeing the boss running back, Su Qingcheng asked.

The boss was flanked on both sides, and there was a murderous man behind the woman in front of him. He could only accept his fate and said: "Guest, it's such an unlucky time for you to come. We have run out of voice-changing pills."

"Where did your pills come from?" Su Qingcheng went straight to the point.

The boss frowned and said as if he were dead: "In the black market, betraying others is a capital crime. If I say that I won't have to hang out in the future, girl, you should kill me!"

Su Qingcheng didn't expect his reaction to be so violent, but judging from his attitude towards them, he should be just a chess piece who didn't know anything.

"Then let me change the question," Su Qingcheng said after thinking, "Three days ago, a man with a scar on his face came to you and bought a bottle of voice-changing medicine. Where did his bottle come from."

The boss is ashamed, there seems to be no difference between these two questions...

"Girl, I will not betray..." In the middle of his words, Ye Tantai's sword was pressed against his neck.

Beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.

Although he had seen everyone in a place like the black market, it was rare for him to see a man as dignified as Ye Tantai.

"The black market has black market rules. If you threaten me like this and get discovered by the supervisor, you will never leave this street." The boss said with a trembling voice.

His heart was beating fast. The sword had touched his skin, and blood would flow into a river with just one stroke.

Su Qingcheng was a little surprised. In this busy street, there was actually a force protecting her?

"To tell you the truth, the medicine was sold to murder the princess. We were ordered to investigate the matter. If you refuse to tell us, we will have to tie you back and hand you over." Su Qingcheng spread his hands, helpless road.

The boss's expression changed when he heard this. This matter actually involves the princess!

Murdering the princess...even killing his nine clans might not be enough.

"I, I said!" the boss recalled, "that day, a masked woman sold me the pill and asked me to sell it to the first person who asked."

"Woman?" Su Qingcheng was slightly surprised.

"Well, although she was masked and didn't speak, I am someone who has been in the black market after all. It rained that night, and it was not difficult to tell that she was a woman from the sound of footsteps and the strength of her walking." The boss confirmed.

"Do you still remember the characteristics of that woman?" Su Qingcheng asked.

The boss tried hard to recall, but couldn't think of anything. He took out a note and said, "She communicated with me using notes. Is this considered a characteristic?"

Su Qingcheng took it. The paper was the most common rice paper in Diqiu. The fonts were regular and had no personal characteristics. Even the pen and ink were all pine smoke ink that ordinary people could afford.

It seems that this person is also a thoughtful person.

As a result, the clue was broken again.

I thought I would be able to find the person selling the medicine, but now there seems to be no progress.

No matter how hard they tried to coerce and lure the boss, he still knew nothing, so they had no choice but to return to the Princess's Mansion first.

Several days passed, and Su Qingcheng sent several waves of people to the black market again, but could not find any clues.

However, there were fewer and fewer rumors about the imperial daughter in Emperor Qiu, and Su Qingcheng also knew that the four major families were operating behind the scenes.

Su Qingcheng was dealing with political affairs in the study when Wu Ya came in.

"General Xiao invited the princess to taste tea at the general's residence." Wu Ya said.

Su Qingcheng put down the ink pen in her hand and was a little confused. The imperial daughter and the imperial guards were not the same people. How could Xiao Guoliang invite her?

"Is the prince here?" she asked.

Wu Ya shook her head and said, "I heard Huo Mei said that he went to the downtown area."

Xiao Guoliang recognized Ye Tantai that day. Su Qingcheng always felt that there must be some relationship between them, but Ye Tantai didn't know anything.

Perhaps Xiao Guoliang invited her just because of Ye Tantai's matter.

"Let's go."

Su Qingcheng took Wuya and Yulan to the general's mansion.

She originally thought Xiao Guoliang was holding some kind of tea party, but looking at the empty street in front of the General's Mansion, she realized that she was only invited.

Yulan hesitated and said: "It is rumored that the Xiao family is dissatisfied with the four major families. Is it dangerous for the princess to go alone?"

Her worries were not unfounded.

The court in Beiyuan can be said to be divided into two factions, covertly and overtly. The four major family factions with the princess as the center, they control six tribes, which is the general trend.

There is also the Imperial Guard centered on Xiao Guoliang, which accounts for almost 70% of Beiyuan's troops.

The four major families have always been worried that if Xiao Guoliang rebelled, Beiyuan would be in chaos. They wrote several times to request that the Imperial Guard be brought under the four major families.

But the empress has never been perverted.

Su Qingcheng gradually got rid of some political affairs and gained some understanding of these things.

"It doesn't matter, he won't be stupid enough to attack me in public." Su Qingcheng said calmly.

The guard at the door had obviously received the order. When he saw Su Qingcheng, he opened the door and led her into the courtyard.

Xiao Guoliang was under the pavilion. When he saw her coming, he stopped making tea, folded his hands in front of his chest and bowed: "See you, Princess."

"General Xiao, you're welcome. I wonder what kind of tea has been prepared today?" Su Qingcheng smiled and sat down gracefully.

"Of course it takes the best to be worthy of an imperial daughter." Xiao Guoliang also sat down and continued making tea, "It takes five years to get a pound of nine-bend red plums."

Su Qingcheng was shocked, this was Nanye's famous tea.

Xiao Guoliang specially invited himself to taste tea, sent all the maids and guards away, and brewed Nanye tea. What on earth did he want to do...

"Yes, I also liked this tea very much when I was in Nanye. I have endless aftertaste." Su Qingcheng said.

Xiao Guoliang was very surprised and said: "Has the princess been in Nanye before? This is the first time I have heard of it."

What kind of medicine is sold in Xiao Guoliang's gourd?

Su Qingcheng was confused. It was no longer a secret that she grew up in Nanye. Almost all the ministers knew it. Was he pretending to be stupid or did he really not know?

"Yes, I got married to King Yunan when I was in Nanye. General Xiao must have met Yunan King, right? Didn't you recognize him a few days ago?" Su Qingcheng thought about it and compared her with this one. An old fox who was decades older than her would definitely not be able to compete with her in twisting and turning.

So it's better to speak clearly, so as not to fall into any of his traps.

She had no doubt that the person behind this incident was Xiao Guoliang.

After all, the four major families and the Xiao family have never dealt with each other, so it is reasonable for him not to welcome him back, and he may have done it deliberately by bringing the Imperial Guard that day.

Xiao Guoliang handed a cup of tea to Su Qingcheng and said, "The princess is really good at it."
