Yu Zhi just made a casual guess, but it opened up Wen Jiuxiao's thinking. Two days later, Wen Jiuxiao told her that the deposed prince really regretted it. Although she didn't guess everything, she guessed 80% of the time, and the rest

The two achievements are just twigs and leaves, not important.

Two days later, I heard that the deposed prince had been deposed as a commoner. Not only was he deposed as a commoner, he was also sent to Lingnan.

Lingnan... Su Shi once wrote a poem, "Eat three hundred lychees a day, and I will live a long life as a Lingnan native." It sounds like a good place, but it is just the joy of hardship after Su Shi was demoted.

Lingnan is more than a thousand miles away from the capital. It is still unknown whether the deposed prince, who has thin skin and tender flesh, can successfully complete this journey. Even if he is lucky enough to reach Lingnan alive, there will only be hard work waiting for him. Long Zi was born to be aloof.

Feng Sun, let alone working, has he served food himself?

Guarding the tomb in the imperial mausoleum seems to have hit rock bottom. In fact, there are people to eat and drink, but there is no freedom. When you arrive in Lingnan, it is the real hell. Maybe it won't be long before you hear the news of the deposed prince's death.

The fate of this life is so unpredictable. It’s hard to get a good pregnancy, so what are you going to do? If you die, you will have nothing.

Along with the exile of the deposed prince, Chuixuelou was sentenced to being a traitor. The emperor deeply hated Chuixuelou for seducing the princes, and beat them all into rebels. Fortunately, they were all orphans, so he was spared the execution of the Nine Tribes.

On the day of the execution, the escorting team lined up from far and wide. I heard that the executioners' knives were so sharp that they could pile up a mountain of heads.

The eucalyptus was over, and a reward from the palace was received from Pingbeihou's house. Yu Zhi's luggage was also packed, and he was waiting to set off. However, all good things come to an end, and Wen Jiuxiao came back this day looking unhappy and particularly cold.

, not only his face was cold, but his eyes were also cold. When he looked at Yu Zhi, he felt a little guilty.

Yu Zhi's heart skipped a beat, "Something happened?"

Indifference is his normal state, but he feels guilty... Could it be that he has made a great contribution and the emperor rewarded the beauty? Or has he fallen into someone else's beauty trap when he was out socializing?

Wen Jiuxiao was a little embarrassed to speak, and the guilt in his eyes became even more intense. Yu Zhi became anxious and raised his voice, "What's wrong? You're talking!" He was so anxious.

Wen Jiuxiao then spoke with difficulty, "Zhizhi, I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise to you, and I'll let it go..." He paused, "The boy I'm interested in has had his beard cut off."

He didn't dare to look into Yu Zhi's eyes, but it was obvious that he had agreed to it before they got married. Zhi Zhi was busy packing her luggage these days, and he could see her joy. Don't look at her in Beijing.

Li was also happy, but he knew that she preferred life like Ancheng.

But Yu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's it?" She thought he was going to get a woman back, but it was a false alarm.

"Yes, that's it." Wen Jiuxiao looked at Yu Zhi's face, "Aren't you angry?"

Yu Zhi glanced at him and said, "Angry! Who cut off the beard?" She wanted to know who dared to take food from an adult's mouth since she was a child, "Didn't you say it was already agreed upon?"

"The Bai family, the White Concubine in the palace, now the missing son falls on the second brother of Bai Guogong." Wen Jiuxiao's eyes flashed with solemnity, "I asked the Minister of the Ministry of Affairs for the matter of foreign affairs. Today, Wang Shangshu is very excited.

It was cold and I took leave. By coincidence, the cabinet asked for a list of vacancies to be filled this year. Gao Yongen, the Minister of Civil Affairs, wrote Bai Er's name on it. By the time I knew it, the list had already reached the emperor's palace."

"Don't Gao Yongen know that you are going to be released?"

"I know, but I'm just pretending not to know." She apologized to him hypocritically.

Yu Zhi frowned, "Did he have a problem with you?"

Wen Jiuxiao nodded, "His brother-in-law once accidentally killed someone. I was the one who interrogated the case. He came to me and wanted me to be accommodating, but I didn't agree."

That's right. Yu Zhi thought for a moment and asked, "Is that Concubine Bai very favored?"

"She has a princess under her knees, and now she is pregnant again. She is almost five months old. According to the rumors, there is a high probability that she is a little prince."

"No wonder." Women in the harem either compete for their appearance, their father, or their belly, and Concubine Bai is the latter. Being able to carve out a bloody path among so many women, and being pregnant with two children in a row, is obviously a trick.

A remarkable woman.

"Sorry." Wen Jiuxiao didn't mind that his plans were disrupted. He was more concerned that Yu Zhi was unhappy. He had promised himself but failed to do it, and he felt very guilty.

"What are you apologizing for? It's not what you want." Although Yu Zhi regretted it, he also knew that it was not Wen Jiuxiao's fault. He must be feeling angry at the moment.

"I was careless." He thought he was sure of it, but something unexpected happened. "I should have paid closer attention."

Yu Zhi rolled her eyes at him, "It's useless no matter how closely you keep a close eye on your calculations." Officialdom is just as dangerous as a battlefield. "How is the reputation of the Bai family?"

Wen Jiuxiao thought for a moment and said, "Concubine Rong's father is Duke Bai. He is very ruthless and decisive, but he is very slippery and it is difficult to get hold of him. When he was young, he served abroad.

He is very proficient in common affairs. He is the eldest son, Bai Er is the legitimate son, Bai San died young, Bai Si and Bai Wu were both concubines, and they were all sent out of Beijing by Duke Bai. However, their official positions are not high, one is sixth grade and the other is seventh grade.

Pin. Bai Er also served outside, and he was also the prefect before, but his position was average."

"Does this mean that the only room left in Beijing is Duke Bai?"

"Yes, Duke Bai Guogong is quite knowledgeable. He restrained his clan members and got all his brothers out of the capital. His family's reputation in the capital is pretty good."

Yu Zhi didn't think so, "His son bullies men and dominates women, and is so bad that he has sores on his head and pus on his feet. How can his family's reputation be good?"

"He doesn't have an official position, so no matter how much trouble he can cause, it will be limited. He won't be able to spread the news to the court. Moreover, with his father here, he won't get much bad reputation." Wen Jiuxiao's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he was surprised, "

How do you know that son of his?"

"He once came to my shop to cause trouble, and I took care of him. It was you people from Dali Temple who came and took him away. Oh, yes, it was almost the Chinese New Year, and you were out of Beijing on business. Unfortunately, his hands and eyes were very good.

, he was brought back on the same day. Didn't your colleagues tell you?" Yu Zhi was also surprised.

"No." Wen Jiuxiao frowned tightly, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Yu Zhi shrugged, "I thought others would tell you." Suddenly, as if remembering something, he slapped his forehead, "They must have thought I would tell you, but I thought they would tell you,

As a result..." Yu Zhi spread his hands, but no one said anything.

Wen Jiuxiao's face looked better and he warned: "You must tell me anything you encounter in the future."

"I know." Yu Zhi said obediently, but she didn't really take it to heart. Are you kidding me? She has to report everything, does she still want to go out? "It's just a pity that I bought so many things."

Although it's not Wen Jiuxiao's fault, Yu Zhi is still very sorry that he can't take the job abroad. Forget it, let's continue to live peacefully in Beijing!

Wen Jiuxiao didn't speak, but a cold light flashed in his lowered eyes. Is his beard so easy to cut? Don't stretch it to death!
