After listening to the old man's inquiry, Qin Yi pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "No need for now, we will talk to you if necessary."

This mansion is extremely spacious, with three entrances and three exits. He is alone and does not need to move in for the time being. He plans to continue living in Ce Yuan, which will make it more convenient to attend classes.

The old man nodded, and after telling Qin Yi where he was in Yaxing, he stopped talking.

After viewing the entire mansion and the helpers also finished scanning, Qin Yi waited until everyone left, then locked the door and walked out of the house.

As he walked, he saw the Si Mansion in front of him. He thought about it, then walked up and knocked on the door.

Now that I have received the reward, there is no need for Si Qimei to continue funding, so I naturally have to inform you and thank you by the way.

With a creak, the door opened a gap. Shitou poked his head out and saw that it was Qin Yi. He was stunned for a moment before opening the door and said in confusion, "Brother Qin, it's not the beginning of the month now. Have you finished using your money?"<

/p>

Qin Yi stepped in, shook his head and said, "No, there are some things I need to tell you. Is the housekeeper here?"

Shitou nodded repeatedly, "Yes, he is in the lady's study."

Qin Yi was a little surprised, "Second Miss is here too?"

He didn't expect that he would bump into the other party in the house just because he came over temporarily to inform him.

Of course, even if Si Qimei was in the mansion, he would not be able to go and tell her. He could just ask the housekeeper for such matters, otherwise it would be a violation of the rules.

Qin Yi immediately said, "Please inform the housekeeper and tell him that I have something to ask him."

Shitou nodded, led Qin Yi to the lobby, and ran quickly towards the backyard.

After about half a cup of tea, Qin Yi heard a burst of footsteps. The sounds were complicated, and it seemed that there was more than one person coming.

When he turned his head and looked around, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman, leading the housekeeper and several maids, walking slowly towards her.

This woman has a graceful figure, a broad mind, and a skin as smooth as gel. There is a sense of elegance and nobility in her gaze.

Qin Yi quickly looked away, raised his hands and saluted, "Qin Yi has met the second lady."

The woman who walked over was none other than Si Qimei. She nodded and looked at Qin Yi with admiration in her eyes. There was a sweet smile on her charming face, "I heard about your deeds and you did a good job."

Qin Yi responded, "This is what I should do, and I don't deserve the praise from the second lady."

"If you do a good job, you should be praised," Si Qimei chuckled, her beautiful eyes looking forward to it, which was extremely touching, "You make me feel that my support is worth it."

She came back yesterday, and as soon as she arrived at the study, the guard who was left behind to guard Lilan Fucheng told Qin Yi's deeds in detail.

After listening, Si Qimei was very surprised. She had not had such strong emotions for a long time.

It can only be said that what Qin Yi did was truly shocking and unprecedented.

Qin Yi was neither arrogant nor shy, and instead said, "I came here to tell the second young lady that your majesty has given me a lot of property, and I no longer need to be supported by others. Therefore, the second young lady will no longer need to support me in the future."

"I am very grateful for the help of the second young lady. If there is any need in the future, the second young lady will give you direct orders. If I have the ability, I will definitely do whatever it takes!" Qin Yi said firmly.

Si Qimei's beautiful eyes flashed, and she nodded with a smile.

She was very satisfied with what Qin Yi said.

The intelligence showed that Qin Yi knew how to be a good person and had a pure heart. For the sake of garrison soldiers, he dared to rashly dissuade King Mu.

Even though these soldiers almost killed him, he ignored the past grudges, which shows that he has excellent character.

But the intelligence showed that after hearing what Qin Yi said, she knew that Qin Yi did know how to treat people, and at least he would not suffer any hidden losses in the court in the future.

"That's okay," she nodded and said sweetly, "I hope you won't be arrogant in the future and continue to serve the court."

Qin Yi nodded solemnly.

……

Fu Yamen, main hall.

After Eunuch Xie promulgated the imperial edict, he showed a flattering smile, stepped forward quickly, and said to King Mu, "My lord, how are you doing here? Your Majesty misses you very much."

King Mu's expression softened a little and he said, "Please return to your majesty, father-in-law. I am not feeling unwell here. Please don't worry about me."

He is the fourth prince and the empress's brother. He has been in a good relationship since childhood, so it is normal for him to be missed.

Eunuch Xie said with a flattering smile, "I understand that I will definitely bring the prince's words to you."

Zeng Mingzhi, who was on the side, stepped forward and said respectfully, "Father-in-law, I will order my men to go to Zuiyun Tower to arrange a reception banquet for my father-in-law?"

Eunuch Xie quickly shook his head, "There's no need for this, our family will go back now!"

He knew that King Mu didn't like extravagance and waste, so how could he dare to eat in front of him? He wished he could leave on the spot so that this black-faced Yama would have a good impression of him.

Zeng knew clearly what Eunuch Xie wanted, so naturally he did not dare to force it, so he could only nod his head.

"Your Majesty, I am preparing to return to the capital. Please forgive me for my negligence." Eunuch Xie apologized and said with a smile.

King Mu's expression returned to solemnity and he nodded lightly.

Eunuch Xie immediately led a group of eunuchs and walked out of the hall, while Zeng Mingzhi saw them off in person.

After all, Eunuch Xie is also a eunuch that the empress relies on, so he should not be underestimated.

Standing in the hall, King Mu meditated secretly.

Because of his identity, he already knows everyone's rewards and punishments, even if they have nothing to do with him.

Qin Yi was rewarded, Ce Yuan was rewarded, and General Yuan was also rewarded.

I once knew that with the wisdom of knowing people, merits and demerits complement each other, and there is no reward or punishment.

Quan Shenhan and Meng Qun were escorted back to Beijing together to wait for execution at a selected date.

However, Quan Shenhan intended to disobey, and the children in his family were punished for it. The adult men were exiled to the frontiers and worked as laborers, and the women were sent to the priest's office and beaten into low status...

Jing Xun was demoted from a fifth-rank guard to a sixth-rank captain, and the two captains below him were also demoted one level each.

In addition, considering that Qin Yi was a minister of great merit, he adopted his opinion and did not deal with the garrison soldiers. He only dispersed all the soldiers and transferred them to other prefectures, and then transferred soldiers from other prefectures to garrison Lilan.

Thinking of this, King Mu nodded secretly. These punishments were okay, but they were just not what he wanted.

Your Majesty is still too merciful, and those who deserve punishment should be severely punished!

If he were to handle it, he would dismiss Jing Xun from his post and implicate Quan Shenhan among the nine clans!

As for Zeng Mingzhi, seeing that he has the ability to recognize people and recognize Qin Yi, a thousand-mile horse, and give him space to show off, I will let him go for the time being.

After thinking for a moment, King Mu turned to thinking about the crossbow.

Although the big traitor was dug out, the biggest purpose of his trip was the military crossbow case, but so far there has been no progress.

Just now I also asked the imperial spy guards who went to Liulang Mountain to investigate, but there were no clues.

King Mu couldn't help but frown, feeling unhappy.

How does this allow him to deal with His Majesty?

Suddenly, he thought of something he mentioned casually a few days ago.

After the prison was attacked, the government police officers could not find any clues, so they had no choice but to invite Qin Yi, and they found two flaws in an instant.
