According to Zeng Ling's statement, his family did not make a mistake and has been doing business conscientiously.If there was anything wrong with it, it was that his father had a somewhat arrogant temper, was sometimes rude to officials, and had no habit of giving gifts.

"If you're telling the truth, and it's really a case of using power for personal gain, you can stay in the capital with peace of mind, and he doesn't dare to do anything to you." Zhou Xingzhi said, "But if you deceive me, no matter where you hide, I will looking for trouble for you."

"With the words of the young master, I can stay here with peace of mind." Zeng Ling said with a smile, "But I need to remind the young master about something."

"Tell me." Zhou Xingzhi said calmly.

"There is someone behind this general judge. According to my friend's investigation, he gave most of the property he got to a certain big shot." Zeng Ling said.

"Which big shot?" Ye Ningxuan asked.

Zeng Ling didn't speak rashly, but glanced at Wei Zhong and the others, "My lord, the people you brought here should be absolutely reliable, right?"

"Of course, you can just say it." Zhou Xingzhi nodded.

"Although my friend did not have any definite evidence, there is a [-]% chance that the money fell into the hands of the Prince Regent... No, it should be in the hands of the current Prince Jia." Zeng Ling said while observing Zhou Xingzhi's face on the expression.

He was betting that Zhou Xingzhi was not from Prince Jia's side.Of course, he didn't leave a way out for himself.If he made a wrong bet, he could only take advantage of the situation and take refuge in the opponent, so as to gain a little breathing time, and then make another plan.

"If what you said is true, then this matter will not be easy to deal with." Zhou Xingzhi's face showed a trace of embarrassment.

"Well, I'm the one who troubled the two young masters today. You two can choose an item at will, and it will be my apology." Zeng Ling felt a little regretful. Although he had made the right bet, the two young masters didn't seem to have enough energy. ah.

"But it's not impossible." Zhou Xingzhi changed his subject, "It's just that it's a different price. I don't know if Zeng Ling can afford it for you."

"Young Master, what do you mean?" Zeng Ling was stunned for a moment before he realized, "As long as you can help me get through my difficulties, Zeng is willing to go through fire and water for you!"

About half an hour later, Zhou Xingzhi and Ye Ningxuan came out of Yafeng Pavilion together, and there was also a long wooden box in the hand of the entourage, which contained the Guqin that Ye Ningxuan had taken a fancy to before.

"It's getting late now, why don't you find a place to have lunch first." Ye Ningxuan said.

Zhou Xingzhi thought for a while, "Ning Xuan, if I remember correctly, is your home nearby?"

"Huh?" Ye Ningxuan blinked and quickly realized, "Zhixing, you mean to go to my house for lunch?"

"Yes." Zhou Xingzhi nodded, "If you're dining outside, Lu Wan will definitely have to serve a dish to test a dish. Instead of going through such a hassle, it's better to go to Ning Xuan's house for lunch. Isn't it, Lu Yuan?"

Lu Wan coughed lightly, and replied, "Compared to eating outside, we will feel much more at ease if you go to Prime Minister Ye's mansion." Prime Minister Ye is a friendly army in Lu Yuan's perception, so naturally there will be no harm to Zhou Xingzhi thoughts.

"Ning Xuan, is it convenient to go to your house for a meal?" Zhou Xingzhi said with a smile.

Ye Ningxuan also smiled, with some helplessness in her eyes, "Of course I can, but I'm afraid my father and brother will be shocked."

Prime Minister Ye's mansion is not far from Yafeng Pavilion. After getting into the carriage, about two quarters of an hour later, the gate of Prime Minister's Mansion appeared in Zhou Xingzhi's field of vision.

"You are, Second Miss?" The porter on duty rubbed his eyes when he saw Ye Ningxuan, a little in disbelief.If I remember correctly, didn't Second Miss already enter the palace and become a queen?How would it appear here?

"Well, it's me, me and me... Cousin is going home, is my father at home?" Ye Ningxuan asked.

"Master is at home, Miss, please go inside first, I'll go and tell Master that you're back!" The porter's movements were very sloppy, and after bringing the two of them to the living room, he trotted to report the situation.

When Prime Minister Ye heard that his daughter had returned, he was in a daze. He checked with the concierge again before he rushed to the living room with big strides.

"My lord, see Your Majesty, my emperor..." Seeing Zhou Xingzhi and Ye Ningxuan in men's clothes, Prime Minister Ye was shocked even though he was prepared.

"Prime Minister doesn't need to salute, I'm Ning Xuan's cousin now, Prime Minister, you just need to treat me as a normal relative." Zhou Xingzhi hurriedly helped Prime Minister Ye up, she was here to eat, not to make trouble.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Even though Zhou Xingzhi said it, Prime Minister Ye was still very polite and used the honorific title, "Is there anything I need to do at your Majesty's house?"

"There's nothing serious about it. Today is a rare holiday, so Ning Xuan and I went out for a stroll. Isn't it time for dinner? Let's come to your house for a meal, Prime Minister." Zhou Xingzhi said with a smile, "I don't know Is it convenient for the prime minister?"

"It's my honor that Your Majesty is willing to dine here." Of course, Prime Minister Ye would not refuse, and specially called the housekeeper to supervise the cooking in the kitchen to ensure that there would be no problems.

Prime Minister Ye is a dedicated person and only married one wife.Mrs. Ye has a constitution that is not easy to conceive, so she only has two children, a son and a daughter, and she can be regarded as having both children.

Ye Ningxuan's elder brother is named Ye Ningyuan, who is four years older than her, who happens to be the weakest year.Now he is going out to worship Buddha with Mrs. Ye, and he probably won't come back until evening.

Although he said that he was just eating a meal without talking about business, Zhou Xingzhi couldn't help mentioning Zeng Ling's matter while eating, and asked Prime Minister Ye to help him investigate and protect him by the way.

"I have promised Zeng Ling to protect him well, but I can't go out of the palace often, and I'm afraid I'll leave the specific matters to the Prime Minister to take care of it for me." Zhou Xingzhi said, with a little apology in his tone.It's really embarrassing to say it. I am the one who benefits from this matter, but Ye Chengxiang is the one who contributes. If this was changed to my own era, she would definitely be a black-hearted capitalist.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely handle this matter well." Prime Minister Ye agreed, he didn't dislike working too much, but felt that Zhou Xingzhi's actions meant that he valued himself, so he was quite happy.

After eating, Zhou Xingzhi didn't continue to disturb Ye Chengxiang, but took Ye Ningxuan to her previous room, intending to borrow a place to take a nap.

Although Ye Ningxuan has already entered the palace to become a queen, her room has not changed much, and it still maintains the appearance before she entered the palace, including the weapons hanging on the side wall, complete with swords and bows.

"Ning Xuan, are you still practicing martial arts?" Zhou Xingzhi looked at the weapons on the wall with some curiosity. There were traces of use on these weapons, and they didn't look like simple decorations.

"I've studied for two years, but I'm not very good. I just know how to use these weapons." Ye Ningxuan coughed lightly and said modestly.Compared with ordinary ladies, she doesn't like female red embroidery very much. It just so happens that no one in the family forces her to learn it, so she spends the time learning female red embroidery on practicing martial arts.

"Then Ning Xuan, you are also very good. If there is a chance, we can learn from each other, or practice martial arts together." Zhou Xingzhi said.The speed of processing memorials by myself is getting faster and faster, and I have more free time. I can use this part of time to practice martial arts and exercise my body.

"Okay, if your majesty has time, you can come to me at any time." Seeing that Zhou Xingzhi didn't mind practicing martial arts by herself, Ye Ningxuan's mood became better again.

"Ning Xuan, why are you calling me Your Majesty again?" Zhou Xingzhi raised his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to hide your identity here?" Ye Ningxuan blinked innocently.

"Then call me by my name." Zhou Xingzhi took Ye Ningxuan's hand and walked to the bedside, and asked, "You sleep inside and I sleep outside?"

"Okay." Ye Ningxuan nodded, and began to untie her robe.

Zhou Xingzhi's hand moved slightly, and after some hesitation, he still didn't raise it, but when Ye Ningxuan took off her coat and sat on the bed, she suddenly squatted down.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?" Seeing Zhou Xingzhi grabbing her shoe, Ye Ningxuan was startled.

"Ning Xuan, what did you call me just now?" Zhou Xingzhi asked with his head down, and took off Ye Ningxuan's right shoe with his hands.

"Xingzhi, I'll do it myself." Ye Ningxuan immediately retracted her other foot. She didn't forget the identity of the person in front of her. Even if it's not the palace now, it doesn't affect that the person is the king of a country.

"No, I'll take it off for you." Zhou Xingzhi didn't give Ye Ningxuan a chance to refuse, and directly helped her take off the shoe on the other foot, and raised his head and asked, "For afternoon naps, do you like wearing socks or not?" wear?"

"Wear it, wear it, I wear it to sleep." Ye Ningxuan said quickly, taking off her shoes was beyond her capacity, and if she added taking off her socks, she really couldn't imagine what it would be like.

"Okay." Zhou Xingzhi got up, wiped his hands with the handkerchief that was put aside, then took off his coat and shoes and lay down on the bed, "Go to sleep."

"Yeah." Ye Ningxuan silently pulled up the quilt a little to cover her flushed cheeks.

The nap time was not long, so Zhou Xingzhi didn't let the brain intervene in Ye Ningxuan's sleep state, but I don't know if it's because of the habit, even if she didn't fall into a deep sleep, Ye Ningxuan still leaned towards Zhou Xingzhi after she fell asleep. He hugged her waist with his hands, and leaned his head against Zhou Xingzhi's neck.

The bed in Ye Ningxuan's boudoir was smaller than that of Fengyi Palace. When she leaned over, Zhou Xingzhi also habitually hugged Ye Ningxuan's waist.

Um, is it because the bed was changed?Why does she feel that her queen smells better?
