Chapter 30 Yuan Ba Arrives
Seeing this, Xiao Shentian said, "I just thought you were not stupid, but now you are stupid again! I told you, my marriage is a joke. Besides this, what else do you want?"
"I want Xiao Yiran..." Xie Xunfeng answered truthfully.
Xiao Shentian seemed a little helpless.
All the officials couldn't help laughing.
Wu Guozhang said, "Thank you, if I agree to your request, what if you can't solve this case?"
"Then I will marry Xiao Nalan obediently and never say anything else." Xie Xunfeng pretended to be silly and said.
He saw that Wu Guozhang and the others still thought he was a fool.
Then wanted to take advantage of an opportunity to control him.
So, I cooperated very well and got into this trap.
Wu Guozhang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, since Xie Zhizi said so, I think we can let Xie Zhizi give it a try..."
Xiao Shentian said to Wu Guozhang, "Wu Guozhang, if he really solves the case, then you have to break off the engagement with Nalan."
"It all depends on God's will!" Wu Guozhang said mysteriously.
Seeing this, Xiao Shentian also said, "Okay, I'll agree to your request. But it can't be too far away! Can I give you a month to investigate the assassination case?"
Xie Xunfeng thought to himself, it wouldn’t take a month.
Before, although their Shura Palace was engaged in assassinations , the core of the assassination was intelligence and investigation.
Only with sufficiently accurate intelligence support can the assassination be completed 100%.
However, Xie Xunfeng naturally agreed, "Your Majesty, I have another condition!"
"What conditions?" Xiao Shentian asked.
"I need people from the Prison Department, and they must obey my orders!" said Xie Xunfeng.
Xiao Shentian nodded and said, "Of course!"
"There is also a token that allows me to enter and exit the palace at will! I need to report the situation to Your Majesty at any time." Xie Xunfeng said.
He said this, but what he was thinking in his heart was that he wanted to go and see Xiao Yiran.
Wu Guozhang saw that something was wrong at this time, and he was also afraid that Xie Xunfeng would come into contact with Xiao Yiran.
The reversal in the palace today made Wu Guozhang think that it was Xiao Yiran who planned it.
This made Wu Guozhang still wary of Xiao Yiran.
"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate... Xie Xunfeng is a hostage after all. And if..."
Before Wu Guozhang could finish, Xiao Shentian waved his hand and said, "I agree. Although Xie Xunfeng is a hostage, he will be my son-in-law in the future. I trust him."
Seeing Xiao Shentian say this, Wu Guozhang couldn't refuse.
"Okay, this court meeting has never lasted so long, let's all go!" Xiao Shentian waved his hand and announced the adjournment of the court.
…
Inside Kunning Palace.
The Queen said to Wu Guozhang with a dark face, "Father, you are confused. You let Xie Hanzi take charge of the assassination case. Whether the truth is uncovered or not, it will be of no benefit to us."
"Haven't you seen that stupid Xie? He has been badly brainwashed by that bitch Xiao Yiran. We must save him this time and make him grateful. We must eliminate his vigilance against us so that we can control him well." Wu Guozhang said.
"Mother, that's right! How could this assassination case be so easy to investigate? Why didn't any of the civil and military officials in the court dare to take the case? It's because there's no way to investigate this case at all! He's just a fool, let alone a month, even if you give him a year, he won't be able to find any clues! By then, the emperor will definitely blame him, and we will mediate between them. That fool will be grateful to us." Xiao Wenyan continued.
"Won't it be dangerous for him to investigate this case? He can't die now." said the Queen.
"Don't worry, mother. Although this fool is not very smart, he is quite skilled... It does take some effort to assassinate him! Don't worry, we just need to make sure she doesn't meet that bitch Xiao Yiran!" Xiao Wenyan said.
Wu Guozhang nodded and said, "This woman Xiao Yiran has always been a scourge. We have all seen her scheming and scheming. Although you let her leave Xie Hanzi, you also let her go to the Empress Dowager... If she is favored by the Empress Dowager, the consequences will be disastrous... So, you have to find a way to get rid of this scourge, this is the only way to solve the problem once and for all!"
The queen nodded and said with a hint of cruelty on her face, "Father, don't worry. I have arranged for someone to take care of her, even if she is in the Cining Palace! As long as she is still in the palace, she can't escape from my grasp. That little bitch, don't you see who is the master of this harem!"
Xie Xunfeng originally wanted to meet Xiao Yiran, but without a token, it was really impossible to take a single step in the palace.
It won’t be too late to go after the emperor gives him the token.
Moreover, the emperor is back.
This emperor was not a foolish one.
Since Xiao Yiran is by Empress Dowager Zhaoyang's side, there won't be any big problems.
Returned to the proton house.
I could smell a fragrance from a distance...
Many people passing by stopped to smell it.
Entering the hostage house, it was bustling with activity.
Some people are grinding scallops and other dried seafood.
Some people are cooking oysters.
"Brother, you're back... How is it? The emperor has granted the marriage, right?" Guan Chong saw Xie Xunfeng coming back and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Xie Xunfeng reluctantly told the story of what happened in the court...
Guan Chong immediately said with a bitter face, "What? Then...then our one thousand taels of gold will be wasted, right?"
The witnesses today were found by Guan Chong at the request of Xie Xunfeng.
Xie Xunfeng also guessed that they would argue.
So I thought that the most powerful way to fight back was to provide evidence.
A lot of people saw what Xiao Nalan did.
So it was not difficult to find witnesses.
The method used is simple and crude, just spending money.
Some of the smashing activities cost money.
There were still some that could not be smashed, so we asked Cai Shoucai for help.
Cai Shoucai is not bragging, he is still very powerful.
As soon as he showed up, those people actually agreed.
"You're making money even if you lose it! Fortunately, we have these witnesses, otherwise we don't know what the result would be! Okay, do you have finished products for these things I asked you to make?" Xie Xunfeng asked Guan Chong and Jing Fei.
When the two men saw Xie Xunfeng mention oyster sauce and Wei Ji Xian, their eyes lit up.
"It's made, it's made...Brother, you are right! I have never eaten anything so delicious! During the time we have been making it, many people have come to ask about it. If it is sold, it will definitely be a hit." Guan Chong said excitedly.
Jing Fei scooped a spoonful of oyster sauce and Wei Ji Xian powder over...
Xie Xunfeng just wanted to taste
A rude voice came from outside the door, "Where's Xie Hanzi! Where's Xie Hanzi? Damn it, you dare to blackmail me! Do you really think that there is no one in my Yuan family and that I, Yuan Ba, am dead?"
Then there was a rude knock on the door.
Seeing that no one opened the door, the man at the door said, "Damn it, if they don't open the door, tear down their door for me!"
