The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

On the other side, Xie Jin, who came out of Jiangning No. 1 Restaurant, frowned and returned to the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion with a sullen face.

The news about the incident in Eighteen Lanes of East Street has spread throughout the entire Jiangning City. Many people are watching secretly. They don't know what has happened or why the city defense troops have been dispatched.

Fearing that something bad might happen, the common people and wealthy merchants in the city did not even open their shops or set up their stalls. They all stayed at home and sent people out to gather information...

The Governor's Office and the Jiang Mansion also received the news.

The difference was that red lanterns were suddenly hung outside the Jiang Mansion, as if some happy event was about to take place, and there was a festive atmosphere outside the door.

Those concubines and maids who originally wanted to rebel were also suppressed by Madam Jiang. They all stayed in their own courtyards, crying and making noises, and dared not to be the first to stand out.

As for the Governor's Mansion, it was in chaos.

The butler was so busy with the affairs of the mansion that he was overwhelmed. On one hand, he had to calm the servants in the mansion, and on the other hand, he had to deal with the crying of the governor's wife, which gave him a splitting headache.

As long as the master did not ask for a divorce, the butler did not dare to be disrespectful to the Governor's wife and could only deal with her patiently.

Moreover, the housekeeper even sent people out to inquire about the news. Why did his master only go to the Eighteenth Lane of East Street for a banquet, but was eventually taken away by the city guards and locked up in the prison of the government office? ?

Just as the butler had his men prepare a carriage and go out to use some connections to rescue his master, Xie Jin, Wen Kang and Wen Chao had just entered the mansion.

Upon hearing the news, the butler quickly put down the work in his hands and hurried over. When he saw the Fourth Prince walking in front of him, the butler stopped, knelt on the ground with a respectful expression, and bowed to the Fourth Prince.

He said with a slightly nervous look on his face, "Fourth Prince, I wonder what my master did do wrong while he was away?"

In the housekeeper's opinion, the Fourth Prince is the biological son of the Emperor, and the power in his hands must be greater than that of his master. As long as the Fourth Prince is willing to maneuver, he will definitely be able to rescue his master...

No matter what, the Fourth Prince is now the backer of his master. He should be willing to help, right?

The housekeeper felt inexplicably uneasy.

Seeing the butler suddenly rushing over and blocking his master's way, Wen Kang was planning to step forward and chase the butler away, but before he could make a move, he saw his master raising his hand, signaling them not to move.

Wen Kang and Wen Chao looked at each other quickly, understood each other, and stood where they were without moving.

Xie Jin had a sullen face and stared down at the butler. In the past few days since he came to the Governor's Mansion, Xie Jin naturally knew that the butler kneeling in front of him was highly valued by Shi Weian. He just didn't know how much the butler knew about Shi Weian and whether he could be of any use to him.

It would be interesting to let this butler go into the prison and personally send his master to heaven, right?

Xie Jin, who had originally not intended to pay attention to the housekeeper, changed his mind instantly.

"You want this prince to help you?"

Xie Jin spoke slowly, with a faint smile on his face, but it did not reach his eyes: "Do you know what crime Lord Shi committed?"

"No matter what crime my master has committed, please help my master, Fourth Prince!"

Hearing this, the butler kowtowed to him a few more times. Even though his forehead was broken and bleeding, he seemed to be completely unaware of the pain, and his weathered face was filled with anxiety.

"Ah"

Xie Jin suddenly sneered, "You are quite loyal."

The butler did not respond, but just kept kowtowing, as if he would not kowtow any longer unless the Fourth Prince agreed.

"That's fine."

An ambiguous look flashed across Xie Jin's eyes, and he stared at the butler with a deep gaze, "Butler, how about you make a deal with this prince?"

The butler was stunned for a moment, raised his head with hope, and looked at the Fourth Prince with red eyes.

"Master Shi has made a big mistake. Now only I, the prince, can save him."

Xie Jin deliberately kept the secret, and said slowly: "This prince will help you rescue Lord Shi, and you have to tell me where the evidence of Lord Shi's bribery is hidden, and also, the treasures of the bribes..."

Just these few words instantly made the butler break out in a cold sweat, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

He has always been working for his master. Likewise, his master really trusts and values ​​him. Many shady things and secret transactions are all handled by him.

Therefore, apart from the Lord and him, no one else knew that the bribes the Lord received during his tenure as Governor-General of Jiangnan were not limited to the treasury in the secret room. There was also another batch of gold that was hidden by the housekeeper.

However, the key is with the adult, and the account book is hidden in the housekeeper's residence.

The adults deliberately made preparations for the worst, fearing that the truth would be revealed one day in the future.

But the housekeeper never thought that the fact that the master accepted bribes would be exposed so quickly!

The butler was horrified in his heart, but he didn't dare show any abnormality on his face. The gold belonged to him and the adults, and no one could take it away!

The butler quickly suppressed his shock and calmly answered the Fourth Prince's question: "Fourth Prince, please don't embarrass me. I am just a butler in the Governor's Mansion. How could I possibly know about your affairs?"

"What's more, my master has always been fair and honest, and never takes a penny from the people. Even when we eat wontons on the street, he will pay the bill. This..."

At this point, the butler paused and said with great pain: "This... How could my master accept bribes? My master is innocent! Please, Fourth Prince, make the decision for my master!"

"Ah"

This old guy knows how to protest his injustice.

What a pity, he must get what he wants.

Xie Jin sneered, suddenly raised his foot and stepped on the butler's shoulder. He leaned over slightly and put a little force on his foot, causing the butler's face to become ferocious with pain. "This prince is willing to negotiate a deal with you. It is your honor. You are a lowly person, don't be so shameless!"

"Otherwise, not only your family members, but you as well, will die together!"

"what--"

The butler instantly felt that the bone in his right shoulder was about to break. He was shaking with pain and couldn't even kneel steadily. "Please, please spare my life, Fourth Prince!"

Xie Jin: "If you want to live well, then tell us everything about your parents clearly!"

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you--"

"Fourth brother, what are you doing?"

A familiar and gentle voice came unexpectedly from behind. A hint of anger flashed across Xie Jin's eyes. He stared at the butler coldly and threatened him in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense if you want to live."

After saying this, Xie Jin withdrew his foot.

The butler nodded repeatedly, enduring the pain and secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

At this time, the butler also saw several people coming from the front. Looking at their aura, he knew that they were either rich or noble. The butler forced himself to stand up despite his discomfort and said, "I wonder who you are? Are you here to look for my master?"

"No."

The leader was Xie Xi.

Following Xie Xi at this moment were not only Bai Qiuyuan, Liang Shenlin, Meng Huaijun, but also Lu Xiaoxiao.

As for why Xie Xi suddenly came to the Governor's Mansion, it was all because of the secret he learned from Mrs. Jiang two quarters of an hour ago.

Lu Xiaoxiao was thinking about coming to the Governor's Mansion to eat melons, so she followed Xie Xi here.

After all, Lu Xiaoxiao had contributed a lot to the deployment of the city defense troops.

Looking at the very familiar figure standing in front of him, Xie Xi did not move forward. He said in a gentle tone, "Why don't you turn around, fourth brother? Don't you want to see me?"

Xie Jin: "..." Do you think he has no idea about it?

Xie Jin's face was dark, and a surge of anger arose in his heart for no apparent reason. However, he was unable to vent it for the moment. He was really filled with hatred!

Xie Jin took a deep breath, pretending to be calm and composed, turned around, changed his previous gloomy expression, looked at Xie Xi and said, "Second brother, you are joking. How could Fourth Brother not want to see Second Brother?"

The butler beside him was shocked.

At this moment, another prince has arrived! ?

No, isn't the second in the royal family the Crown Prince?! ? ?

The butler was so frightened that he trembled all over and knelt on the ground in embarrassment again. He lowered his head and put his hands on the ground. He didn't dare to move or speak casually, for fear that he would accidentally offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Xie Xi glanced at the butler out of the corner of his eye and chuckled inwardly, thinking that he was a sensible man.

"From today on, my fourth brother should not live in the Governor's Mansion, because -"

Facing Xie Jin's suspicious gaze, Xie Xi said calmly: "No one in the entire Governor's Mansion can enter or leave again."

After a pause, Xie Xi said, "Commander Yeshi."

"My subordinate is here."

Commander Ye Shi understood instantly, raised his hand and shouted in a deep voice: "Follow me, follow the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, from now on, surround the entire Governor's Mansion, and don't let a single fly out!"

"Yes!"

The city guards responded and quickly followed.

The maids, servants, and guards in the mansion were all stunned when they saw the commotion.

But facing the city defense troops, they dared not move.

So does the housekeeper.

He finally realized that the people standing in front of him must be the ones who took the adults away!

The housekeeper cried out in embarrassment, "It's over, it's all over now."

Xie Xi: "Xie Jiu, Mu Qing, take this housekeeper away."

"Yes."

Xie Jiu and Mu Qing, who had been following behind him, strode forward and pulled the butler up.

At this point, it seemed as if the situation was hopeless and the butler did not dare to resist.

Xie Xi looked around and saw many maids and servants hiding in the dark and trembling. He turned his eyes to Bai Qiuyuan who was following him and told him, "Leave all those people to Lord Bai and General Liang for interrogation."

In fact, the evidence he had obtained was enough for his father to punish Shi Weian, but Xie Xi wanted to find out more about Shi Weian.

For example, the collusion between the Yan royal family and Shi Weian.

Since this matter concerns the country of Li, Xie Xi has to be cautious.

"I will certainly not let your Highness down."

Bai Qiuyuan and Liang Shenlin responded at the same time.
