Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist

"Dad, what do you think? Is there something behind Jiang Qingyu's death..." Seeing her being taken away, Jiang Mo asked.

Jiang Zhuo put his hands behind his back and pondered carefully, "She must have someone helping her behind the scenes. However, since you know what she will encounter when she returns, why don't you help her?"

"Father, maybe he is just a nobody, he certainly wouldn't dare to offend us."

"Well, it's not impossible."

"Based on your observations over the past few days, do you think Jiang Qingyu has anything to do with the gunpowder explosion?"

Jiang Mo made a guess based on the recent interrogation, "I think the child probably didn't know about it, didn't mention it actively, and didn't hide it."

"Okay, let's continue investigating."

"Yes, Father. The matter of the missing gunpowder..."

"Don't worry about it, your father will take care of it."

"Yes, my son will continue to investigate."

In the Xiao Mansion.

These days, Xiao Wenshu has been sending people to carry out tasks according to his brother's instructions.

"We will find an opportunity to expose Wen Shu tomorrow and let them find all the lost raw materials." Xiao Yanqing gestured.

"Yes, brother." Xiao Wenshu turned around and prepared to leave, but turned back after taking just two steps.

"Brother, I have another question."

"Go ahead."

"Why not take advantage of this opportunity to blow up the gunpowder depot that Jiang Zhuo set up privately? Wouldn't that just expose him?" Xiao Wenshu raised this question.

"Our action this time is to distract Jiang Zhuo's attention and to raise public opinion about the Jiang family, so that... Jiang Qingyu can successfully gain his trust." When he mentioned her name, his tone paused slightly.

"Of course we can't let this incident overshadow Jiang Qingyu's disappearance."

"That's right." Xiao Wenshu suddenly realized that their purpose was to make Qingyu successful.

"Yes, brother. I'll go right away." Xiao Wenshu then left with peace of mind.

He calmed himself down, "Qianyun."

"I'm here." Qianyun came in from outside and leaned over.

"Still no news from her?"

"Not yet, Your Highness."

Qianyun is well aware of His Highness's concerns and asks about it every day. He has asked several times in the past two days. His Highness is really worried about Miss Qingyu.

He lowered his eyes to think, and the throbbing in his heart could no longer be concealed.

"Qianyun, notify the people below to be ready to sneak into the Jiang Mansion to rescue Jiang Qingyu at any time."

Upon hearing this, Qian Yun was slightly stunned, and the next moment he leaned forward to accept the order.

"Yes, I will arrange it right away."

He had been in such a panic for the past two days that he had no intention of doing anything. She was on his mind all the time. How was she? There was no news at all.

Jiang Qingyu, two days, the last two days!

In a blink of an eye, these two days passed.

In the court, Jiang Zhuo had already handled the case of the missing gunpowder and came to report.

"Your Majesty, the lost raw materials have been found, but the murderer jumped into the river and tried to escape, and he must have drowned." Jiang Zhuo leaned over to report the situation.

"What is the murderer's purpose?" Xiao Yanzhou, who was sitting above in the hall, asked after hearing his report.

"This...is still unknown."

"We continue to investigate. The explosion cannot be taken lightly."

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will continue to supervise and investigate."

Xiao Yanzhou immediately thought of the recent incident, "Oh, Lord Jiang, there have been a lot of rumors about you recently. I heard that your missing daughter appeared in Huanxiang Pavilion, and now she is missing in Huanxiang Pavilion again. Did you take her back?"

Jiang Zhuo was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that even His Majesty was asking about this matter.

"This... is because I, the old minister, neglected to discipline my daughter..."

Seeing him hesitating, Xiao Yanzhou said, "I don't mean to interfere in your family affairs, but the whole city is talking about her now, and I heard that the people's evaluation of her is not just as simple as a prostitute."

"It's not good for Yongqing City to be full of rumors, so Lord Jiang should deal with this matter properly as soon as possible."

Xiao Yanzhou heard that this matter was being spread throughout the palace, and that some ministers had also seen this woman and praised her.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"Well, go down if you're fine."

"Yes, I am resigning."

Eunuch Li stepped forward to add more tea for Xiao Yanzhou and couldn't help but curiously said, "I wonder what kind of genius this Lord Jiang's daughter is."

Xiao Yanzhou lowered his eyes and flipped open the memorial in his hand, "Not only are you curious, I am curious too."

“How did they spread it?”

"Your Majesty, there are rumors in the palace that the girl Qingwu is very beautiful and charming. She can capture people's hearts with just one look. She is undoubtedly graceful and charming..."

Eunuch Li became more and more excited as he spoke, and only then did he notice that His Majesty was staring at him. He quickly stopped talking and returned to his serious state.

"My Lord, I heard that she is a spiritual doctor. No matter what troubles people have, she will help them resolve them. I think it's really amazing."

"Spiritual doctor?" Xiao Yanzhou was a little confused.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

If only one or two people said this, it might just be flattery, but it is truly amazing that everyone who has seen her says this.

But for some reason, when he heard her description, the young lady he saw on Yue Xiye came to his mind.

"Have you done what I asked you to do?"

Eunuch Li was shocked and speechless, "This... Your Majesty, I have asked everyone, but no one has seen that young lady."

"Really? Have you checked all the officials who brought my daughter here that day?"

"I have checked, but I did not find the young lady your majesty mentioned."

He put down the memorial in his hand and asked, "None of them?"

"Yes." Li, the eunuch, saw that the atmosphere was not right and quickly replied, "I will definitely continue the search."

Xiao Yanzhou pondered in silence, remembering that she seemed to have deliberately concealed her identity at the time and didn't want him to know. Could it be that she came in quietly?

For some reason, he always felt that she was not a simple young lady and that they would definitely meet again.

……

When Jiang Zhuo returned home, Jiang Mo hurried to report.

"Father."

"Have you found it?"

"Yes, we finally found some clues, but... they discovered us, and the people I sent lost them." Jiang Mo frowned and lowered his head guiltily.

"What?! Discovered!" Jiang Zhuo was shocked.

If you think about it, since they knew Jiang Qingyu was captured, they would not be unprepared.

"Father, I have another way. Hua Niang from Huanxiang Pavilion must know something." According to Jiang Mo, all the guests received by Jiang Qingyu were arranged by Hua Niang personally.

"No!" Jiang Zhuo immediately dismissed the idea.

"Why?" Jiang Mo was puzzled.

"The Lady Hua of Huanxiang Pavilion has won over many powerful and respected officials, and there must be someone behind her, otherwise how could she support the entire Huanxiang Pavilion by herself?"

"It is not yet time to touch her."

"So that's how it is. I understand." Jiang Mo nodded.

"We must quell the rumors as soon as possible. Even His Majesty is asking about this matter again."

"What?! His Majesty is also asking about Jiang Qingyu's situation?!" Jiang Mo found it unbelievable. What kind of ability does Jiang Qingyu have that makes so many people care about her?

"Well, but this is not a bad thing. In this case, we must make good use of her." Jiang Zhuo's wrinkled brows gradually lowered.

"What is Dad going to do?"

"Let's go see her."
