As soon as Yuexiu mentioned this matter, Qiao Wan wanted to blow up the princess mansion, so she shouldn't have believed that Luo Fengxin was a reliable person!

That day, after listening to Luo Fengxin's words, she lived in Luo Fengxin's residence for three days with peace of mind, and enjoyed Luo Fengxin's care for a few days due to her illness.

Her illness came on suddenly and recovered quickly, and she was fully recovered by the fourth day.And Xiaobai, like the previous few times, reappeared when she recovered from her illness.

Until the moment Qiao Wan stepped out of the princess mansion, everything was fine.

Coming out of the Princess Mansion, Qiao Wan ran into Zhou Kejiong on the road, both of them were in their respective carriages, and happened to be looking out, their eyes met, and they nodded their heads to say hello.

Zhou Kejiong's car was going in the opposite direction to Qiao Wan's, and it quickly went away, but the more Qiao Wan thought about it, the more familiar Zhou Kejiong's eyes looked at her just now.

After thinking hard for a long time, she suddenly realized.

Isn't that expression of concern, sympathy, and hesitation to speak exactly the same as when Luo Fengxin's subordinates looked at her when she followed the crown prince to the northern border?

Qiao Wan felt something was wrong, so she sent someone to inquire and found out what good deed Luo Fengxin had done. The most annoying thing was that Luo Fengxin was not lying to her. Isn't the effect she wanted now?

Qiao Wan wanted to blame Luo Fengxin, but there was no reason, and she felt really hot if she didn't go.

No, she can't bear this tone by herself.

Qiao Wan immediately had someone turn the carriage into the palace. Although she was only a commoner now, the guards at the gate all recognized her and knew that she was about to become the princess's concubine, so they didn't stop her and just let her pass by.

When she came to the imperial garden, didn't Luo Fengxin ask her to pick lotus leaves, she plucked all the lotus leaves in Mingjing Lake and gave them to her today!

Qiao Wan called the court ladies and eunuchs and said that the lotus leaves belonged to the princess and asked them to pick them.Among these people was the little court lady who delivered Luo Fengxin's message to Qiao Wan that day. With her as a witness, the others did not doubt the authenticity of this order, but now it is the season of appreciating lotus, and all the lotus leaves in the lake were collected. I picked it... I always feel that it is not very appropriate.

Someone proposed to report to the emperor first, but Qiao Wan was in a hurry, so he had to send someone to report while picking it.When Luo Jinhe got the news and rushed over, half of the lotus leaves in Mingjing Lake were bare.

Luo Jinhe covered his eyes with his sleeve in dismay as he looked at the naked man, and asked someone to call Luo Fengxin to reprimand him, and Qiao Wan finally "got his wish", because she was convicted of destroying the Mirror Lake and punished Follow the gardeners to take care of the flowers and plants in the imperial garden for half a month.

As soon as Luo Jinhe left, Luo Fengxin, who had been reprimanded for no reason, dragged Qiao Wan into an empty side hall in front of all the eunuchs and maids. No one knew what happened in the hall, except that Qiao Wan was still screaming at first. screaming, and soon the screaming stopped, as if someone had covered his mouth, occasionally one or two whimpers leaked from the hall.

Half an hour later, the door of the palace opened, and everyone saw Qiao Wan being held in Luo Fengxin's arms, motionless and unconscious.Her hair was in a messy bun, her body was covered by her own coat, so she couldn't see what was going on inside, and Luo Fengxin's clothes were not as smooth as before.

Everyone took a look at the princess's reddish cheeks, and all lowered their heads. After the princess walked away with the man in her arms, they started discussing again.

The news spread widely, first among the maids and eunuchs, and then somehow from the imperial hospital that the imperial physician went to the Princess Mansion in the middle of the night to give Qiao Wan a diagnosis and treatment.

Gradually, it spread not only in the palace, but also in the capital outside the palace. It was said that Qiao Yushi was given a marriage to his former enemy, and then he was brutally revenged. The princess acted recklessly against her. Playing until fainting, the life is very miserable.

"Hey, let me ask you, is it true? Is that Princess Leping really that powerful? When you guys..."

Qiao Wan saw that Yuexiu's questioning became more obscene, so she quickly stopped her: "You believe in such rumors, and I will doubt the authenticity of your information."

"It's like that. Many people are talking about it. Besides, many of your story books are also written like this. After Princess Leping came back, she locked you up every day..."

"Shut up! The pure land of Buddhism, you are not afraid of offending the Bodhisattva when you say these words."

Qiao Wan blushed and dragged Yuexiu away, now she regretted why she got mad at Luo Feng that day.It's nothing more than being angry, he calculated to the end anyway, but after he entered the palace, he changed his mind halfway, and cooperated with Luo Fengxin to act out the whole lie.This spirit of self-sacrifice is really moving. I hope that in the future, Luo Jinhe can give her a handwritten plaque of "serving the country with loyalty" and hanging it.

Forget it, or not.Others serve the country loyally by fighting against foreign enemies, while oneself serve the country loyally by spreading scandals with the princess. If you really get such a plaque, I am afraid that you will crawl out of the grave in anger.

"Is there any news about the last time you were asked to check Mindi?" Qiao Wan asked proactively in order to prevent Yuexiu from continuing to dwell on the topic just now after coming out of Qinglu Temple.

"It's even more chaotic than before. There was a series of heavy rains last month, and the Cang River swelled. It burst its embankment in Fuqu County and drowned more than a thousand people. At that time, the new emperor was enthroned, and the governor of Minzhou did not dare to report it. until now.

The imperial court didn't know about it, and there was no food or silver for disaster relief.Minzhou is already seriously plagued by banditry, and with the displaced victims, I estimate that this matter can be delayed for at most one month. If there is no improvement after one month, there must be riots in Minzhou. "

"I remember that the imperial court allocated a sum of money to Minzhou to repair the embankment last year. It shouldn't be..." Qiao Wan wondered, "Could it be that the governor of Minzhou was greedy for this money?"

Yuexiu shook her head: "Some people are spreading the word, but I don't know if it's true."

The people in Minzhou are tough, and there have been three riots because officials oppressed the people.Good years are good, but banditry is rampant in famine years, and it is a headache for the imperial court to take this place.

Let's send troops to suppress the mountains. If there are fewer soldiers, the enemy will not be able to defeat them due to the advantage of the terrain. If they send more soldiers, these bandits will abandon their stockades and go deep into the mountains, and they will not be able to catch anyone at all.

Of course, if the imperial court made up their minds to kill them, they would send ten times and a hundred times as many troops to kill them as well.But in Minzhou, where the land is barren and the population is sparsely populated, it is not worth the loss to pay such a high price to pay the bandits.

But just leaving it alone doesn't work.In the past two short years, three officials from Minzhou have been killed. These people who have been driven to a dead end are not afraid of the government at all. If the governor of Minzhou is really greedy for this money, Qiao Wan has no doubts about these People even have the guts to besiege government offices.

"This matter is related to the results of our operation." Qiao Wan weighed it and said to Yuexiu, "Go to Minzhou yourself and see if you can find evidence that the governor of Minzhou was corrupt. If there is any Let’s wait for my news; if not, let’s make another plan.”
