She remembered that Wei Yuan was under the command of King Qi.

After marrying into Prince Qi's Mansion in her previous life, she met him at Prince Qi's Mansion.

"It's time to clean up the house, but please don't make any noise about this yet."

Unexpectedly, while Prince Qi was using her to gain more power, he was also using her identity as Liu Gong's granddaughter to seek benefits, thereby harming Liu's business!

I just gave two great gifts to Zeng Shangshu, and this time I will give one to King Qi.

"The old man's vision is not wrong at all. The eldest lady is indeed not only talented in medicine, but also talented in business." Uncle An said with emotion.

Shen Yunshu said modestly: "Yunshu still doesn't understand many things, and I need Uncle An's guidance and advice."

She may have some unique insights when it comes to business, but there are many things she can't understand at once.

"Don't worry, eldest lady, I will do my best."

Shen Yunshu felt much more at ease after hearing Uncle An's words.

At the same time, she will definitely make everyone who disrupts Liu's business pay the price!

——

A few days later, the headless case was heard publicly in Dali Temple, with Xiao Jingzhi in attendance.

In addition to He Yonghua's previous testimony, there is another piece of evidence today, that is, someone did instruct him to tamper with the account books.

This person is Jin Shilang. Back then, Jin Shilang and Xu Xianzhong had a dispute over some things, accidentally killing Xu Xianzhong, and then pretended to commit suicide.

Faced with this evidence, Jin Shilang had no refutation. He did not intend to kill Xu Xianzhong back then.

The reason why He Yonghua was asked to submit evidence was because he knew that Xu Xianzhong handed over the account books to He Yonghua from his hometown.

He also learned that He Yonghua was married in his hometown, and He Yonghua was already married at that time.

Coupled with the fact that He Yonghua was honest and eager for success, he agreed.

As for why he didn't take this opportunity to become the Minister of Household Affairs, maybe it was because he was too guilty.

Faced with everyone's evidence, testimony and witnesses, the truth of the headless case finally came to light today.

From the announcement of the case to the end of the case, Xiao Jingzhi did not say a word except taking action.

"Sure enough, if He Yonghua's son comes out to talk about the matter, he won't hide it." Afterwards, Zuo Huaiyuan also sighed.

He looked at Xiao Jingzhi cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, since He Yonghua didn't take care of his son before, and now his son doesn't follow his advice, why don't we let his son go."

He just felt that He Yonghua's son had not been able to enjoy the blessings with He Yonghua before, and He Yonghua had not recognized him. Now that something happened to He Yonghua, there was no need to suffer with He Yonghua.

Xiao Jingzhi stood up and said, "All the people I should deal with have been dealt with."

In other words, he agreed with Zuo Huaiyuan's opinion.

This actually made Zuo Huaiyuan somewhat unexpected and pleasantly surprised.

After Xiao Jingzhi left Dali Temple, he went directly back to Yanyu Tower.

It was he who asked Zuo Huaian to bring everything to Yanyu Tower.

"From now on, I don't have to protect Miss Shen anymore?" Zuo Huaian was thinking that the headless case was over.

Xiao Jingzhi raised her eyes and looked at Zuo Huaian, "But those things are still in her hands now."

The implication is that Shen Yunshu still needs to be protected.

"Then can't I just go and get it back?"

Xiao Jingzhi lowered his head and said, "If you have a way, you might as well give it a try."

Zuo Huaian looked at Xiao Jingzhi carefully and said, "My lord, do you really hate Shen Yunshu?"

After going through so many things, no matter how dull he was, he could still feel that Xiao Jingzhi didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards Shen Yunshu.

Instead, sometimes he used the slogan of revenge against Shen Yunshu to protect Shen Yunshu.

Xiao Jingzhi was slightly startled. He had never hated Shen Yunshu, but his protection for Shen Yunshu could not be expressed in words, let alone known.

"Ahem..."

Just when he was about to defend himself, he couldn't help but cough.

Zuo Huaian immediately couldn't help but said to Xiao Jingzhi, "Since the case is over, why does the prince need to investigate again."

"The case is over, but some people are still unscathed."

Xiao Jingzhi knew that nothing could be changed about this case, but in a daze, he actually wanted to find some more clues from the fold.

Perhaps he felt that he could not help Shen Yunshu deal with the real manipulator behind this incident.

Even if it is true that Jin Shilang killed Xu Shangshu, he can only be regarded as a promoter at most when it comes to instigating He Yonghua.

"But the prince must rest for a while." During these days, Zuo Huaian did not see Xiao Jingzhi rest for a while.

Xiao Jingzhi ignored it.

After a while, there was a serving of yam and barley porridge on his desk.

He pushed it away, "I said I don't want to eat it."

"If you don't eat, even if your prince is made of iron, he won't be able to survive."

Xiao Jingzhi paused when he heard these words. He actually heard Shen Yunshu's voice. Could it be that he was so tired that he was hallucinating?

Shen Yunshu saw that Xiao Jingzhi was unmoved, "If the prince doesn't like porridge, then I will prescribe some tonic for the prince to drink."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingzhi raised his head, and the person who caught his eye was really Shen Yunshu.

"Why, the prince doesn't recognize me anymore?" Shen Yunshu saw the stunned look on Xiao Jingzhi's face.

"How did you come?"

The moment Xiao Jingzhi saw Shen Yunshu appear, she felt happy. She was finally willing to see him, which was a good thing.

But when she saw herself looking so depressed, she felt concerned.

"I'm giving money to the prince." Shen Yunshu said and put a stack of banknotes on the desk, "Ten thousand taels."

Shen Yunshu came to give Xiao Jingzhi money and return the 10,000 taels of IOU she wrote to Xiao Jingzhi.

Of course, she didn't have to come in person, but Xin Heng said that Xiao Jingzhi was not only sick because he was busy dealing with matters involving the headless case, but also got a lot of abuse from him.

She also heard how ruthless and cold-blooded Xiao Jingzhi was when killing these people.

Xiao Jingzhi glanced at the banknotes on the table and said, "It's really refreshing to do business with Miss Shen."

Xiao Jingzhi had only seen people who could take out ten thousand taels of silver notes so casually when they took them out of the inner treasury during disaster relief.

"No matter how persistent you are about some things, you may not be able to achieve the results you want. Why not find another way and look at it from a different angle."

Shen Yunshu wanted to say that if Xiao Jingzhi couldn't get the results he wanted from this case, then look for other things.

But to Xiao Jingzhi, it sounded like he was describing the relationship between the two of them.

He persistently wanted to get close to Shen Yunshu and protect Shen Yunshu, but sometimes, he did not do well enough, so that the distance between him and Shen Yunshu seemed to be even further away.

Xiao Jingzhi lowered her eyes, "I heard that Miss Shen took over Mr. Liu's business."

"The prince's news comes very quickly."

"In that case, there is no need to give discounts when doing business with Miss Shen again." Xiao Jingzhi joked to cover up her fatigue.

Shen Yunshu pondered for a moment, "I think there should be no business left with the prince."
