Reborn Big Sister eats melon with her left hand and raises her baby with her right hand

Yunmeng went to the prison at midnight. Others paid to visit the prisoner, but Yunmeng sneaked in secretly.

When Yunmeng appeared in front of Minister Xu, he was shocked and couldn't believe that Yunmeng would choose to come here at this time.

Minister Xu looked around and found that everyone was asleep, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Minister Xu, what do you want to see me for?" Yun Meng asked as she stood outside the prison. She didn't feel any sympathy at all when she saw Minister Xu covered in wounds.

In order to climb up the ladder, this man was willing to be the eldest princess's knife, which shows that he is not a good person and has no bottom line.

Anyway, Yunmeng despises those who attack Yinglie's family the most.

"Xu Cheng is here to see the princess. It's Xu Cheng's fault to ask for an audience with the princess in this way. Xu Cheng has no other choice."

Minister Xu did not dare to call himself a minister, nor did he dare to call himself a lower-ranking official. He was now a prisoner, and his status did not allow it.

"Stop talking nonsense and just tell me what you want and what your conditions are." Yun Meng frowned and urged.

"Yes." Minister Xu bowed deeply, "Xu Cheng begs the princess to take care of Xu Cheng's wife and children and arrange a stable life for them."

"Oh," Yun Meng sneered, "I am your mother, I will arrange the life of your wife and children for you."

Yun Meng rolled her eyes, "Your mother doesn't even arrange a life for them, why do you think I will help."

Minister Xu smiled bitterly, his legs softened and he knelt in front of Yun Meng, "Xu Cheng would certainly not be so bold as to let the princess take care of them for no reason.

Xu Cheng is willing to exchange the news of King Qi's death in battle for a stable life for them and their son in the future."

Oh, Yun Meng raised her eyebrows. Sure enough, there was something behind the death of King Qi in battle. Yun Meng had suspected it as early as when the rumor appeared.

"Tell me about it. I need to make sure that this news is worth the price." Yun Meng said calmly.

Minister Xu heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. As long as there was still room for negotiation, it would be fine. He was just afraid that Yunmeng would refuse outright.

"Two years ago, I went to Shangyang County to handle a case and captured a spy from an enemy country."

When Minister Xu said this, he looked up to observe Yunmeng's expression, and found that Yunmeng's expression did not change at all, so he had to continue speaking.

Coincidentally, Minister Xu was investigating a serial case, and catching the enemy spy was just a coincidence.

The spy was silenced the day after he was arrested.

But no one knew that before the spy was killed, Minister Xu had secretly interrogated the spy and got some shocking news.

The spy told Minister Xu that the King of Qi was not killed in battle, but was killed by Yan's own people.

The spy was active in Shangyang City because he heard that the poison King Qi was poisoned by was made by the poison doctor Chi Yangzi.

Chi Yangzi was from Shangyang County and had appeared in Shangyang City during that period. The spies wanted to capture Chi Yangzi and force him to tell them who poisoned the King of Qi.

Unfortunately, the spy was arrested by Minister Xu before he could succeed.

"Who silenced the spy?" Yunmeng asked.

"At that time, only I and two captains knew that the spy was from an enemy country. I suspect that the spy died at the hands of Captain Han Zheng."

"Reason?" Yun Meng asked. She stared at Minister Xu's expression and found that he was not lying. At least that's what Minister Xu thought.

As to whether he died at the hands of Captain Han Zheng, this needs to be investigated later.

"Captain Han is not my confidant, but was forced by Minister Qiao to work beside me before I set out."

Minister Xu smiled bitterly when he said this, "You may not know that I am actually Minister Qiao's thug.

I hit whatever Minister Qiao pointed at, and it’s not an exaggeration to say that I’m Minister Qiao’s dog.”

"Oh, what a pity that you are so bold that you actually want to replace me." Yun Meng curled her lips, looking down on people like Minister Xu.

"Yes, you are right. I am ambitious and do want to take over, but I never intended to do anything bad to Minister Qiao.

I just want to make some progress. What's wrong with that? Besides, Minister Qiao wanted to retire on his own, and I didn't force him to do that."

Minister Xu got angry when he talked about this, "I have been a dog for him, but he is unwilling to give up the position of Shangshu to me.

Instead, he wants to push the cousin of King Wei's concubine to the throne. Why?

I just want to follow the path of the eldest princess and compete for the position of Minister of Justice. Am I wrong?"

"Whether you are wrong or not is none of my business." Yun Meng stared at Minister Xu coldly, "But you want to step on me to get to the top, that's your fault.

The Prince of Qi's Palace has not yet fallen to the point where it can be trampled upon by a vice minister of the Ministry of Justice. What's more, he is a vice minister who is so dirty that he is not worth looking at.

If this is the only information you can provide, then I will not agree to take care of your wife and children."

Yunmeng's words calmed Minister Xu down. He then thought about how he wanted to step on Princess Qi to gain power, and he couldn't help but lower his head guiltily.

But now he can only ask the Princess of Qi for help, because this woman is probably the only one who is interested in the news that the King of Qi was murdered.

If others knew this news, they would not help him, but would only use it to exchange for benefits.

"Don't worry, Princess. Since I've come to you for help, this is definitely not the only clue I have."

Minister Xu did not dare to hide anything anymore and told everyone everything he knew.

Ever since the death of the spy, Minister Xu has been keeping his eyes on the poison doctor Chi Yangzi and has sent his confidants to secretly collect information about Chi Yangzi.

This investigation really allowed Minister Xu to find out an important piece of information, which was that Chi Yangzi actually had connections with the King of Wei.

As for the relationship between the two, Minister Xu didn't know and didn't dare to investigate further, for fear of getting into trouble.

But no one expected that even though he was so cautious, he still became the scapegoat and took the blame for almost all the bad things done by Minister Qiao.

The crime is serious. Minister Xu has no confidence of surviving and is now waiting to die.

"Oh, if this is all you can provide, then I can only tell you that I can arrange for Madam Xu and her family to settle down in a manor outside Beijing.

As for how they can live, that depends on their abilities.”

After hearing Yunmeng's words, Minister Xu sighed deeply. Minister Xu knew that these two clues were so-called clues, but in fact there was no real evidence at all.

After all, the news that the King of Qi had been poisoned to death had not spread, and the only news that came back was that the King of Qi had died in battle.

Even the body of the King of Qi was not brought back. Because of the hot weather, it was cremated directly in the border town. Only a box of ashes was brought back.

In this case, how can we investigate whether the King of Qi died of poisoning?

There is no way to start the investigation.

Minister Xu felt overwhelmed just thinking about it and had no hope of finding out the truth.

The most important thing is, who can guarantee that the ashes belong to the King of Qi himself?

Anyway, Minister Xu can't guarantee it.

Not only Minister Xu did not dare to guarantee it, Yun Meng was also a little doubtful. Were the ashes of King Qi really buried in the tomb?

No, if the news of the King of Qi being poisoned could be concealed, doesn’t that mean there is no one trustworthy around the King of Qi?

So!
