The guards of the Prince's Mansion were brought forward, and Prince Shunyang immediately stepped forward to greet them.
"Your Majesty," the guard wanted to speak, but when he saw Prince Shunyang frowning slightly, he immediately knew that this was not the place to talk. "We met thugs on the road. Those people must have thought that we were wealthy businessmen trying to avoid trouble.
."
"How many people were killed or injured?" Prince Shunyang asked.
The guard said: "One is dead."
Prince Shunyang seemed to be relieved.
"Your Majesty," Xu Qinghuan stepped forward and said, "During the war in Changzhou, many thugs took the opportunity to cause trouble. The Yamen has been arresting these people. I wonder if the guards of the Prince's Mansion have caught those people."
Hearing what Xu Qinghuan said, King Shunyang's expression froze. He actually forgot about it, but he quickly recovered and looked at the guards as usual: "Have those people been caught?"
The guard pursed his lips: "We were suddenly attacked, and by the time we found out, those people had already escaped."
Prince Shunyang frowned: "It seems that we need to inform the Yamen about this matter and let the Yamen look for traces of those people to prevent those people from committing crimes again."
After the Prince of Shunyang County finished speaking, he walked out of the guard house. Xu Qinghuan immediately bowed and saw him off.
"Father."
After the clear voice, a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old came over. He was well-dressed, holding a long sword in his hand, with a handsome face, and a faint aura of nobility about his body.
That was the prince of Shunyang County. There were some bright red blood stains on the prince's robe, as if he had just had a fight with someone.
"My mother asked me to report to my father that everything was fine at home, and that the murderer was surrounded and killed by me."
After hearing this, Prince Shunyang's frown relaxed a little, and he nodded repeatedly and said, "That's good."
Xu Qinghuan saluted the prince of Shunyang County, and the prince immediately returned the salute and said: "Is the Marquis of Anyi in the military tent? I will go and pay my respects to the Marquis."
After the Shunyang County prince and his son left, Xu Qinghuan heard Zhang Zhenren's voice: "This one is just like the prince."
Of course Xu Qinghuan knew what Zhang Zhenren was referring to. She turned around and saw the contemptuous look on her brother's face.
"Ignorant old bastard," Xu Qing'an said, "you have no vision, why do you still claim to be an old god? I tell you, those who look bright on the outside may not necessarily be good people. After you take off your clothes, you don't know how much filth is hidden inside."
Dirty…”
Zhang Zhenren stroked his beard.
Xu Qingan's eyes widened: "What? You don't believe it? When I find the evidence, you, an old bastard, will be convinced." As he said this, he looked at Xu Qinghuan as if he wanted support.
Xu Qinghuan nodded and said: "Many things cannot be taken at face value."
Xu Qingan couldn't help but feel proud. Sure enough, after Song left, his lovely sister came back to him.
Not only does he feel sorry for him and will bring him soup every day, but he will also support him at critical moments.
Xu Qingan raised his head, sweeping away the decadence he had felt over the past few days.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Prince Shunyang didn't ask those people if they had been caught just now, as if he had already made up his mind, which shows that he knew very well who the guards met.
And as a guard of the county prince's palace, it is very strange to wear dark short brown clothes."
Xu Qing'an said: "Just do something shameful," he said with a smile on his face, "Let me tell you, I look bright on the outside, but who knows if the flesh is black or red."
"Brother is right," Xu Qinghuan's eyes fell on Xu Qing'an, "But as my brother is so consistent on the outside, he should restrain himself occasionally."
Xu Qing'an's fast boots were full of dust and his body was still stained with grass blades. He secretly followed his sister to the Song family, and then returned to the guardhouse to eavesdrop on the conversation between his father and the Prince of Shunyang. After going through this circle, although his face was not red, his heart was not panic.
, but evidence of guilt was left on his body.
Xu Qingan swallowed, stretched out his hand and tugged on his clothes: "I am also worried about my sister."
Xu Qinghuan said softly: "Next time I go to visit Mrs. Song, my brother can come with me."
"No, no, no." Xu Qingan kept shaking his head.
Xu Qinghuan continued: "Mrs. Song is very kind, just like a grandmother."
Xu Qingan's face became even more ugly, so he couldn't go even more. He was afraid that if he couldn't hold on, he would be confused. Who would protect his sister? Who would call his father a failure? He would acquiesce if others only said a few words.
This son-in-law.
Seeing his brother escaping hastily, Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but smile, turned around and walked towards the military tent.
"Have you met Mrs. Song?" An Yihou looked at his children.
Xu Qinghuan nodded and said: "Mrs. Song is a kind and kind person, and she speaks very straightforwardly. She also brought a lot of medicine for her father."
An Yihou felt a little at ease. He had been thinking about it over and over these days. What he was most worried about was that his daughter would be looked down upon after marrying to Quanzhou.
Now seeing the Song family's attitude, he finally got some comfort.
"I have already packed things up and will move back to the city tomorrow," said Marquis An Yi. "This will make it easier if the Song family wants to discuss marriage, and you don't have to come to the guard house to take care of me."
An Yihou said as he took out a big red post. This was the second time he wrote his daughter's birth date on it, but it was the same person.
Such a result was beyond his wildest dreams.
"I haven't told your grandmother and mother yet," said Marquis An Yi. "I guess since the Song family has already arrived, they won't wait until they return to Beijing before mentioning the marriage, so I made some preparations first."
An Yihou couldn't help but sigh again.
"Why is father so worried?" Xu Qinghuan served tea to Marquis Anyi. "Master Song is a rare talent. In the future, everyone will envy my father for having a good son-in-law."
"You," An Yihou looked at his daughter, "you will only feel relieved for me."
The father and daughter talked for a while and felt that his father was in a much better mood. Only then did Xu Qinghuan walk out of the guardhouse and prepare to return to Jiangyin City.
"Miss Xu."
Just as Xu Qinghuan was about to get in the car, he saw Li Xu and someone coming over.
Li Xu was wearing official uniform and holding documents in his hand, obviously busy with this case.
"Master Li is busy with official duties, so I won't bother you."
Xu Qinghuan turned around and left.
"Su Wan has been arrested. It stands to reason that the case of the White Dragon King has been closed. It seems that the Zheng family and other wealthy families have just been colluding with the general all year round. They want to make profits in the career of their descendants. It should have nothing to do with the White Dragon King. Why are you still like this?
Be careful."
Li Xu's voice sounded from behind.
Xu Qinghuan paused slightly, but soon walked towards the carriage again.
"The death of Prince Shunyang's bodyguard is a bit strange," Li Xu said, "Miss Xu will also go to investigate, right? You are worried about the spy agents set up by people like Su Wan in Changzhou Mansion.
I'm afraid they are not just plotting Changzhou, they want the entire southeast, so in addition to the 'White Dragon King' on the surface, there must be many people secretly passing the news back and forth. I checked the files, and Su Wan wants to do this.
We need to control the situation in Changzhou.
It is said that to use the Wang family and the Xie family, he must first know the secrets of the two families. It can be seen that there are people planning for him behind the scenes. If this matter is not clarified, no matter who is in charge of Changzhou in the future, he will feel unsafe.
Maybe not just Changzhou, but the entire southeast.
You must use this opportunity to find those people hiding in the dark as much as possible and catch them all."
When Li Xu said this, his eyes were as bright as the bright moon: "You have already started arranging these for him. Do you want him to start his business in the southeast?"
Xu Qinghuan stood there quietly. Even if she didn't look, she could still tell the expression on Li Xu's face. Li Xu had only arrived here not long ago and had already understood everything. So why did he find her and say these words?
"Master Li," Xu Qinghuan turned around and said, "You care too much about my affairs. There is no need to spend your energy on it. It will be useless."
