There wasn't much emotion in Xu Qingmo's voice, but as soon as he finished speaking, someone lowered his head and covered his face in tears.
She didn't say anything more, stepped over the threshold, and returned to Ningyuan Hou Mansion.
The people at the gate of Ningyuan Hou's Mansion gradually dispersed, but what Xu Qingmo said still reached the palace.
The emperor who was reading the memorial put down the memorial in his hand and pressed his eye sockets: "This little girl is really good at winning people's hearts. In just one sentence, she coaxed all the people who were blocking the door of Ningyuan Hou Mansion back."
The internal official changed a cup of tea for the emperor: "Your Majesty, the prince is here and is waiting outside!"
The emperor frowned, thought for a long time, and then waved his hand: "Let him come in!"
After Xie Suxian came in, the emperor did not ask anyone to prepare a seat for the prince as usual. He just asked him to stand like other princes. If he had anything to say, he could stand and speak.
Xie Suxian knew that the emperor was a little dissatisfied with him because of his recent affairs, so he did not dare to say a word. He just stood respectfully: "Father, I heard that a lot of people blocked the gate of Ningyuan Hou Mansion today. , Come to think of it, the matter of Jing'an Hall has been spread among the people, so we should deal with this matter as soon as possible."
The emperor raised his head and glanced at Xie Suxian, and then said: "I have handed over this matter to Ran'er, and he will naturally handle it."
"The Seventh Emperor's younger brother is still young, and I am worried about him..."
"There is nothing to worry about." The emperor interrupted Xie Suxian's next words, "I have arranged for Marquis Ningyuan to help him. Marquis Ningyuan has handled so many cases, there is no need for you to worry!"
Xie Suxian was speechless, but felt extremely anxious in his heart.
The emperor saw that Xie Suxian had been silent for a long time. Thinking about what he had just said, it really put him in a difficult position, so he asked a question: "Are you satisfied with the marriage I arranged for you?"
"The Wang family is an aristocratic family, and the girl they taught is gentle and demure. It's just a pity that she has been wronged and is not a legitimate wife..." Xie Suxian said softly.
The emperor looked at Xie Suxian and said after a long time: "You are the prince, there is nothing to wrong her. It's just that the girl from Ningyuan Houfu has a temperament that would rather be broken than ruined. She is very stubborn. Don't Go and provoke her again!”
"I……"
"I know!" The emperor looked at Xie Suxian for a long time, and then said, "She is different from most women. She has a decisive and cheerful temperament. It is only natural that you have a heart for her. It is a pity that the falling flowers are intentional and the flowing water is ruthless. Moreover, The Xu family has its own plans, and with Marquis Ning Yuan’s character, he would not let his daughter enter the palace, so you’d better let go of your feelings for her!”
Xie Suxian lowered his head and said nothing. He still had an obsession with Xu Qingmo. That obsession seemed to come from the depths of his heart, as if there was someone constantly telling you in your ears that you must Get her, you have to!
Even he himself didn't know why he cared so much about Xu Qingmo, even to the point where he had to care about her.
When the emperor saw that Xie Suxian was silent, he understood that he still couldn't let go. He sighed deeply, and finally just said: "Don't provoke her anymore. The Wang family is a noble family. You must cherish Wang better." Girl, do you understand?"
Although he was unwilling to do so, Xie Suxian could only lower his head in front of the emperor: "Yes, father!"
The emperor sighed, then waved his hand: "Get out! I'm tired!"
Xie Suxian turned and left.
But the emperor waited until he left and sighed deeply: "Children love each other so much! If she has a heart for you, I can still help you plan, but her heart is not with you!"
Xie Suxian naturally couldn't hear the emperor's sigh. After he walked out of the emperor's palace, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
As for Meng Hetong, after four hours of continuous interrogation, Fa Can, the abbot of Jing'an Hall, finally spilled the beans in a panic.
"...We were also forced!"
"We! Who are we!" Meng Hetong fiercely pierced the knife in Fa Can's palm.
Fa Can screamed, but Meng Hetong's hand was still spinning the knife in his hand. Fa Can couldn't bear the pain and shouted out: "Qianzhuang, it's the steward of Beiyang Qianzhuang. He is the one who forced us to give him money." We have no choice about money, if we don’t give him money, he will kill us.”
Beiyang Bank!
Meng Hetong let go, but did not pull out the knife inserted in her hand.
The Lin family accounts for a lot of people in Beiyang Bank!
What else don’t you understand?
Banks, brothels, abducting and selling women, and wantonly amassing money, the person behind these has already surfaced.
Meng Hetong wiped his hands, looked at the old nun in front of him, and sneered: "Does it hurt?"
Fa Can was covered in cold sweat and did not dare to say a word.
"Do you know that the pain that those women who were killed alive endured was dozens of times what you are enduring now?" Meng Hetong's eyes were cold and even a bit vicious, "I won't kill you, but you have to understand , what does it mean that life is worse than death?"
Fa Can's pupils suddenly narrowed.
The next moment, she was dragged away by the government officials.
Meng Hetong said coldly: "Don't kill her, at least let her live for questioning!"
These government officials also have wives and children. This is the first time for many of them to see such a cruel case. When they see these people who regard other people's lives as nothing, they also want to cut them into pieces. .
They have been here for decades, maybe they haven't learned much else? But his ability to torture people is second to none.
The officer agreed and tied Fa Can to the execution platform.
On the other side, the man who was the main criminal didn't do well. He took the whip with salt water and chili sauce and threw it on his flesh one after another. The screams echoed throughout the cell.
Meng Hetong handed Xie Suyu the evidence of the two men's seizures. He looked at the Beiyang Bank where the two men had confessed, and his eyes suddenly changed: "How could it be?"
Meng Hetong looked at the table, his eyes full of exhaustion: "He can make a dragon robe to frame you, what else can't he do?"
Xie Suyu looked at the painting in his hand and confessed for a long time, then he took a breath and said, "Let's go!"
"Huh?" Meng Hetong raised his eyebrows.
Xie Suyu stepped out and said, "Robbing Beiyang Bank!"
Meng Hetong was a little surprised: "Oh? I thought you were going to hesitate for a while?"
"A lawsuit involving dozens of lives, why should I hesitate?" Xie Suyu walked straight out without blinking this time.
Meng Hetong also swept away his fatigue and followed Xie Suyu to raid his home in high spirits.
