After Ji Mian studied hard at home for three days, a mysterious fire broke out in the Yangchang Mansion's family and the mysterious murder of the young master Zhu Lingheng were all covered up by a piece of news.

The Prime Minister of Yangchang Prefecture had been an official for many years. He had embezzled and misappropriated public funds amounting to tens of thousands of taels of silver. His son Zhu Lingheng had been robbing good girls for a long time. In just three years, dozens of good girls disappeared. It was eventually discovered that they had all been raped.

After Zhu Lingheng secretly took them away, he subjected them to inhuman abuse...

In short, the house of Fu Cheng's family was ransacked, all their money was confiscated, the Fu Cheng was sentenced to beheading, and all the men, women, and children in his house were sent to the frontier.

On the day that Fu Cheng was beheaded, Ji Mian opened the courtyard door.

The young detective guarding the door smiled at Ji Mian and said, "Miss Ji, you want to go to the execution ground to see the corrupt official beheaded? I will arrange a carriage right away."

Ji Mian shook his head: "I do want to go out, but not to the execution ground. Brother Ming, could you please help me arrange a carriage to come over?"

They had been getting along for a few days. Ji Mian had no airs and was easy to talk to. Moreover, the food arranged for them was the same as Ji Mian herself, so the four agents all liked Ji Mian very much and regarded her as a younger sister.

"Miss Ji is joking, I should, wait a moment, the carriage will be here soon." Agent Ming quickly smiled and ran to the street. Ji Xiucai said he wanted a carriage, so there must be something urgent, but he couldn't delay Ji Xiucai's business.

Ji Mian's last two large boxes, one gold and one silver, were carried up with the help of four agents. After all, according to modern weighing methods, one tael weighs 50 grams, one tael weighs 500 grams, and the gold and silver each weigh 1,000 taels.

Each box only weighed 100 kilograms. Although Ji Mian could also carry it, seeing that the detectives were willing to help, she didn't have to move it.

Two detectives were left behind to look after the house. Ji Mian took the other two detectives to the bank, leaving behind about one hundred taels of broken silver. The rest was all converted into silver notes. Because the denomination was too large, the bank manager personally entertained him.

.

One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver, and these one thousand taels of gold are equal to ten thousand taels of silver.

With two detectives protecting him, it was easy to exchange the banknotes.

When Ji Mian walked out of the bank, he was instantly a rich man with ten thousand taels of silver.

After exchanging the banknotes, Ji Mian bought four gifts and waited until tomorrow morning to give them to the four agents who had been taking care of her one by one. Then with the help of the agents, she got on the carriage arranged by the horse dealer and headed north.

The provincial capital center of Nan Binh Province, her provincial examination will be held at the examination/hospital of Nan Binh Province.

In the provincial examination in August of the lunar calendar, Ji Mian was finally admitted with third place. After eating the celebration banquet, Ji Mian continued to go north. This time, his destination was the imperial capital of the Wei Dynasty, the Imperial City.

Ji Mian is alone now. It is really enough for one person and the whole family is not hungry. How can a person with more than 10,000 taels of silver in his pocket make himself suffer.

During the journey, she had to eat delicacies from the largest restaurant in the area and stay in the most luxurious inn in the area, which was still Tianzihao. She also got sick from carriages because she was too lazy to walk. She learned to drive a carriage and drove the carriage north by herself.

It was true that she would get dizzy when riding in a carriage, but she would not get dizzy when driving a carriage.

It's only October of the lunar calendar now, and I'll try it in February of the lunar calendar next year, so there's plenty of time.

In the barren mountains and ridges, Ji Mian tied his horse to a tree and rested on the spot.

Ji Mian lit a bonfire with the horse as the center, sprinkled it with special insect repellent powder, and then took out the big roast duck he bought in the previous village and ate it.

"Gulu~~"

A slight sound reached Ji Mian's ears. Ji Mian broke off a duck leg from his big roast duck and threw it in a certain direction in the dark woods.

"Thank you." After a long time, a low-pitched female voice sounded.

Ji Mian didn't reply, but lay flat on the bamboo frame bed she had set up, crossing her legs and looking at the beautiful night view while eating.

The starry sky is bright and beautiful.

This person was discovered by Ji Mian on her way from Yangchang County to Nanping Mansion. Judging from her behavior, it was not difficult to guess that she was sent by Ji Shan to follow her secretly. When she discovered this fact, Ji Mian still

After having fun for a while, she said that Ji Shan had a crush on her.

It was already the tenth month of the lunar calendar, and when the night wind blew, the cold air rushed toward my collar.

After Ji Mian finished eating the roast duck and washed his hands with the stored water, he climbed down from the bamboo bed and hid in the carriage. However, after a while, Ji Mian threw a quilt from the carriage onto the bamboo bed and said nothing.

Without saying anything, he pulled up the car and started to sleep.

This carriage is a large carriage she specially bought. It was modified by Ji Mian. It has a bed and a retractable wooden table, which does not hinder food and accommodation. Moreover, the carriage has two layers, which is very effective in preventing cold.

There was gradually no movement in the carriage, and a man in black quietly came out of the woods, carefully lying on the bamboo frame bed, covering one side with a quilt, lying on his side and looking at the carriage.

She is one of the secret guards trained by the eldest princess. She secretly protects and monitors Ji Mian under the orders of the eldest princess.

Unexpectedly, from the very beginning, this talented scholar Ji Renjian would spot him.

She originally thought that Ji Renjian was just a female scholar, but it seemed that it was more than that. Although she had never seen her do anything, her keen insight showed that she was definitely not an ordinary person. She was also someone that the eldest princess could like.

, how can he be an ordinary person?

The night breeze was cool, and the secret guard pulled back the quilt and closed his eyes.

Apart from anything else, this season the world is kind-hearted. He will throw food to her, and even set up a bed and a quilt for her. In the past, she would rest in a tree when doing tasks...

The next morning, when Ji Mian woke up and got out of the carriage to stretch her muscles, the quilt she had thrown out of the bed had already been folded, and even the bamboo bed frame she had assembled had been carefully disassembled and put away.

Ji Mian raised her eyebrows, threw all her things into the carriage, washed briefly, and then drove the carriage northward.

The next stop is the Royal City.

Jinluan Hall of the Royal Palace in the Royal City.

"The emperor's system is carried out by heaven, and the saint's benevolence and fortune are great. No one in heaven or earth fails to respect his relatives... He made the eldest princess Wei Chenxin the regent of the dynasty, and will continue to assist the emperor and co-manage the affairs of the dynasty. Your Majesty!"

As soon as the words fell, the beaded curtain behind the dragon chair was opened by a slender and white hand with long red armor, and then a beautiful face was revealed. It was a stunning woman, with black silk like ink,

Her skin is like cream, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, and her lips are like roses. It seems that all the words to describe beauty can be applied to her.

But few people dared to look directly into her eyes. She was a murderer without blinking an eye. On the day the late emperor passed away, she held the imperial edict in one hand and the youngest prince in the other, making the palace that day soaked in blood.

.

Those who refuse to obey will be killed. Those who resist the order will be beheaded.

Before the young emperor ascended the throne, the entire court was bloodbathed, and those who remained were almost all those who obeyed the eldest princess. They were loyal to the emperor on the surface, but in fact they were loyal to the eldest princess.

Everyone knows that the eldest princess will not always be just the eldest princess. She is waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to pull the emperor off the throne and sit on it herself.

What Wei Chenxin wants is the consensus of the ministers.

Wei Chenxin walked down the stairs step by step, and finally stood in front of the civil and military ministers. He knelt on his knees, raised his hands high, and received the edict from the chief eunuch.

"I accept the order and thank you for your kindness. Long live my emperor!"

Wei Chengxuan sat on the dragon chair and looked at Wei Chenxin who was kneeling on the throne, with a cold light flashing in his eyes: "You don't have to be like this, Prince Regent, get up quickly. Since I came to the throne, you have been assisting me with all your heart, and I am very grateful. I am also tired today.

Now, if you have nothing to do, please retreat."

Wei Chenxin stood up and stood silently in front of the civil and military officials.

"Retreat from the court—" a sharp voice resounded throughout the court.

Wei Chengxuan walked into the back hall, and Wei Chenxin and all the civil and military officials knelt to see him off.

The huge Jinluan Palace fell silent instantly. Every minister lowered his head and looked at the ground, not daring to get up or look around.

The newly appointed regent didn't even get up. How dare they, petty officials, to stand up before the regent? They thought their lives would be long.

Wei Chenxin got up from the ground, and the officials behind him dared to get up. You look at me, I look at you, and they dare not leave.

"Let's go, go do your work." Wei Chenxin waved his hand.

"Yes..." The civil and military officials left one after another.

When Wei Chenxin finally left the Jinluan Hall, he turned his head and glanced at the dragon chair on the high position, his eyes full of determination to win.

Wei Chengxuan, who was raised by him last time, bit him, which made Wei Chenxin both happy and heartless.

He was happy because he felt that Wei Chengxuan had grown up and knew how to resist; he was heartless because Wei Chenxin did not want Wei Chengxuan to continue to sit on the throne and wanted to tear him down as early as possible.

Originally, she didn't want to take back the throne that belonged to her so soon, and it was not impossible to let her brother sit for a few more years. But when the child's wings became stiff and he wanted to fly alone, Wei Chenxin refused to allow it.

She could put Wei Chengxuan on the throne, or she could pull him down and replace him.

For so many years, all civil and military officials have known who is the real emperor.

As for the rule that women should not be emperors, it should be broken here.

Wei Chenxin walked out of the Jinluan Palace. The maid Dongmei had been waiting outside the door for a long time. She immediately handed a hand warmer to Wei Chenxin and whispered in her ear: "Your Highness, the adults have all gone to your house to wait for you."

Wei Chen Xin nodded nonchalantly, took the stove and played with it in his hands, then walked out of the palace, "How about Xiaojiu?"

"Reply to the master, Xiaojiu wrote a letter saying that Master Ji will drive a carriage and will arrive at the royal city in about three days." Dongmei whispered.

Wei Chenxin raised his eyebrows slightly: "That's quick. I thought she would have to wait a while."

Ji Mian was under Wei Chenxin's supervision during the entire journey, including the best food she ate, the best accommodation, and the time she went to Yihong Mansion to listen to some songs on the way.

Fortunately, Xiao Jiu, who was monitoring the situation, said that she just sat there and listened the whole time and did not do any inappropriate behavior, otherwise her life would not have been saved.

How could the person who flirted with her eldest princess flirt with others again?

Dongmei glanced at Wei Chenxin cautiously and said, "One more thing... Xiaojiu said that Master Ji has discovered her existence and sent her food and a warm quilt."

Wei Chenxin paused, turned his head and looked at Dongmei with unclear eyes: "Has Ji Renjian seen Xiaojiu's face?"

Dongmei shook her head: "Xiaojiu said that Master Ji usually treats her as if she doesn't exist, and the two of them have never met."

Wei Chenxin lowered his eyes slightly: "I know, call Xiaojiu back and throw her back to the training camp. When will she learn not to be discovered, when will she come out again."

Dongmei nodded: "Yes!"

This time Wei Chenxin would send Xiaojiu to secretly protect and monitor Ji Mian because Xiaojiu's face was full of scratches and not very beautiful. Wei Chenxin was sure that Ji Mian would not fall in love with Xiaojiu, but he didn't expect that before he saw anyone, he would...
