When Mrs. Wei heard what he said, she let go of the remaining hair on his head: "Really?"
"God can tell you! Every word I said is true! The young lady I'm talking about is Princess Hehua! Can this be false?"
Mrs. Wei was completely relieved after hearing this. Even if her man had some tricks, he would not dare to set his sights on the princess.
"Humph! What's wrong, little lady? Just this little thing is worth staying up all night and sighing! Just go and mention it to the people above. Whether it works or not is not something you should worry about!"
Mrs. Wei rolled her eyes at him, straightened her pillow, and lay back down again.
"Yes, but the princess is a young lady. Since ancient times, there has been no reason for a young lady to work in the yamen. This is inconsistent with etiquette!"
Wei Qiumao quickly shook his head when he heard his wife's words, expressing that he could not accept it.
Mrs. Wei sneered: "The emperor and the empress conquered the world of Dali together. Now I think of Yu Li's quarrel? Since you don't like women, then resign and go home. After all, there are still people in this world. She’s half as good as the Queen! You’re so pedantic!”
Wei Qiumao was stared at by his wife: "You are so cunning! How can these be compared?"
Mrs. Wei turned over and sat up, frightening Mr. Wei to retreat repeatedly.
"I'm a woman too. If you don't like me, get out! Get out!!!!"
Mrs. Wei smashed his pillow on him, lying on the bed and wrapping the quilt all over herself, leaving nothing for him.
Wei Da pointed at her angrily and trembled: "You are proud of your favor! I don't know what to say! Humph!"
With a flick of his sleeve, he simply returned to the study.
Looking at the official business piled up on the desk, he was upset when he opened it.
Money, money, money, at the end of the year, everyone will come to him to complain about poverty, approve money, and approve food!
Can that money fall from the sky? Or can the food reach their household department on its own?
Wei Qiumao scratched his head irritably, feeling that the touch on his hand was wrong. He put down his hand and saw another small amount of hair between his fingers.
He looked at that tuft of hair, and his heart suddenly turned gray.
The eyes he looked at the official were full of resentment.

"Has Hui Ji's son been found?"
Emperor Mingde looked at Xie Siheng and asked in a deep voice.
"I arrested the monk from Huangjue Temple for interrogation. I got the clue from a young monk and followed it. At present, I only know that Huiji and Grandma Lai's son had an accident after he was sent away by Huiji. Ying Er investigated all the way and found out that Hui Ji's son had been taken to Liangzhou, and he had already chased him to Liangzhou."
"There should be a reply about tomorrow."
During this time, Xie Siheng and Emperor Mingde have been thinking of ways to clear out these people from the previous dynasty.
It's really hard to feel at ease unless Hui Ji is caught.
"So, Hui Ji doesn't even know where his son is?"
Emperor Mingde was a little surprised.
"Not sure, but he didn't bother to look for it. The only thing that is certain is that Huiji used it as a false token for so many years to trick Grandma Lai into doing things for him."
Upon hearing the words "Mama Lai", Emperor Mingde's eyes flashed with disgust.
"Regardless of whether he can be found or not, for this palace banquet, release Marquis Xuanping and arrange the defenses in the palace. I will use him to capture Huiji!"
I don’t want to wait any longer, Hui Ji is really good at hiding.
Emperor Mingde just wanted to resolve this matter quickly so that he could pass the throne to Zhong Lizhou.
"Yes!" Speaking of Marquis Xuanping, a cold light flashed in Xie Siheng's eyes.
The day you let him out will be the day he dies!
"I think Princess Kangning from Zhenguo Duke's Mansion is pretty good. What do you think? If you like her, I'll give you a hand in marriage at the palace banquet."
Everything Xie Siheng did this year was in the eyes of Emperor Mingde, and he couldn't help but sigh with a little more pity.
Forget it, leave him a way out!
Xie Siheng didn't expect to say this suddenly. He knelt down and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. It's just that I only want revenge and don't dare to delay anyone. Please take back your life!"
The rejection in these words made Emperor Mingde's face look ugly: "Do you know my intention in choosing the Duke's Palace for you?"
"Your Majesty wants to protect the minister from the Zhenguo Palace. I appreciate my love, but I really have no intention of getting married."
Emperor Mingde stared at him and said nothing for a long time.

I don't know when rumors began to spread in the capital that Xuanpinghou was actually a remnant of the previous dynasty just like Huiji.
During this period, the reason why Marquis Xuanping was ill and did not go to court was because Huiji ran away after being caught. He was worried that Huiji would shake him out, so he secretly made excuses not to go out, but he was secretly searching Huiji.
As soon as the rumors about the previous dynasty came out, the Xie family couldn't sit still. They immediately caught the person who spread the rumors and took them to Jing Zhaoyin for the emperor to investigate.
Later, Marquis Xuanping personally appeared at Jingzhao Mansion with his "sick body" to explain. Only then did people believe that Marquis Xuanping was really sick.
Just the day before the palace banquet, King Ping took Princess Ping with him. They were also tired of travel and entered the capital with a narrow escape.
When King Xuan and King Yi received the news, they gritted their teeth.
"Trash! There are so many dead soldiers, but I can't kill them!"
King Xuan stood in the study and was furious at Marquis Jianping.
Marquis Jianping looked worried: "Prince Ping and Princess Ping have been at the border all year round, and the guards they bring are all people who have been on the battlefield. How can it be so easy to kill them?"
"Then we shouldn't let them enter the capital intact. Prince Ping doesn't look injured at all!"
Speaking of this Marquis Jianping, I felt chills in my heart. Who knew that this Marquis Ping was becoming more and more capable now.
King Yi was equally angry, but he felt relieved knowing that King Xuan had failed in the same way as him.
At night, everyone fell asleep, but King Xuan sat quietly in the study, looking like he was waiting for someone.
Not long after, a dark shadow appeared. King Xuan saw excitement flashing in this man's eyes, and quickly calmed down: "It's almost time. The palace banquet will be held tomorrow. After the event is completed, whether you want a high official, a big salary or gold and silver, I will The king gives it all to you!"
The shadow's laughter was rough and unpleasant: "I have been waiting for your Highness's words for a long time."
During the long night, Zhong Lizhou looked at the letter sent by Xie Siheng, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"Let me see, what is it?"
Ji Changying saw that he was holding the letter without speaking and looked down.
It didn't matter. Her eyes widened instantly.
Good guy!
What Xie Siheng sent turned out to be evidence that King Xuan of Wuhe Mountain was hoarding private soldiers!
"No wonder the last time I saw Prince Zhuang going to Prince Duan to lobby in private, it turned out to be for this evidence. How did it get into your hands?"
Ji Changying looked at Xie Siheng.
"Prince Duan wants to live, but naturally no one wants to believe it, so he has to find another way out, and I just happened to deliver it to you."
Ji Changying nodded: "Things will be much simpler now."
King Xuan himself is not clean, let alone there is evidence now.
There's just no evidence, so she can't 'make' some?
Anyway, the weapons she received in the space were also hoarded by King Xuan, so they were returned to their original owners.
