Xie Xunfeng smiled and cupped his hands to the emperor and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I have another unkind request, and please accept it..."
The emperor looked at Xie Xunfeng and said, "What do you want to do again?"
"There is a maid named Xiaocai in Cining Palace. She helped the third princess today. I am afraid that she will be retaliated against. So, can you please give that maid to the third princess to serve the third princess?" Xie Xunfeng said to the emperor.
.
After the emperor heard this, he smiled lightly and said, "What did I think it was? I agreed!"
Xie Xunfeng handed over and left.
Looking at Xie Xunfeng's leaving figure, Xiao Shentian's eyes were filled with doubts, and he murmured to himself, "Who is giving advice to this fool?"
Xie Xunfeng left the palace and returned to Zhizi Mansion.
The entrance to the Proton Mansion was quite lively, with a long queue forming.
I saw Guan Chong sitting at the door, interviewing women one after another.
"What's your bust size?"
"No way...it's too small...it's unsightly..."
Xie Xunfeng walked over and heard what Guan Chong said. He immediately said to Guan Chong in a dumbfounded manner, "What are you doing?"
Only then did Guan Chong notice Xie Xunfeng's arrival.
He moved his eyes away from the girls, walked up to Xie Xunfeng and said, "Brother, you are back. I am here to help you choose your servants... As a high-ranking proton, how can you be connected in this proton mansion?"
There are no maids, so don’t worry...I will definitely help you keep it safe!"
Xie Xunfeng glanced at Guan Chong and said, "Those who know it think you are choosing a maid, but those who don't know think you are choosing a beauty pageant?"
Guan Chong said with a smile, "Brother, as a maid in the Proton Mansion, you must first be good-looking, and those who are not good-looking will be eliminated! Brother, please feel free to leave this matter to me. I am good at this matter!"
Don’t worry, I guarantee you will be satisfied.”
Xie Xunfeng said to Guan Chong, "Hou Jie is inside."
Guan Chong nodded and replied, "It's right inside."
Xie Xunfeng nodded and walked in.
Hou Jie was in the yard, in a daze.
Xie Xunfeng approached, but he didn't notice it.
He waited until Hou Jie called him before he came back to his senses and said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xie Zhizi, are you back? Do you have any orders?"
Xie Xunfeng nodded and said to Hou Jie, "Go and spread the news. Just say that there has been a breakthrough in the assassination case and that the mastermind of the assassination case has been found! And spread rumors that the witnesses and evidence have been taken away."
Bring Proton back to Proton Mansion."
Hou Jie looked at Xie Xunfeng with wide eyes and said, "What? Xie Zhizi, are you kidding me? When did you find out the mastermind of the assassination? Where are the witnesses and evidence..."
Xie Xunfeng glanced at Hou Jie and said, "I say yes! Just do it!"
After hearing this, Hou Jie's eyes couldn't help but light up slightly, and he said to Xie Xunfeng: "Xie Zhizi, do you want to spread the news and attract the real murderer?"
Xie Xunfeng looked at Hou Jie and said, "Quite smart..."
Hou Jie said to Xie Xunfeng, "I have thought about this. Don't those behind the scenes know about it? How could they be fooled?"
Xie Xunfeng said to Hou Jie, "You don't have to worry about this. They will definitely take the bait anyway."
Hou Jie looked at Xie Xunfeng's blind confidence, and without saying anything else, he nodded in agreement and hurried out.
...
In Kunning Palace.
Xiao Nalan was lying next to the bed, holding a wooden bucket and vomiting.
She has vomited dozens of times, even though she has already vomited all the dirt in her stomach.
However, she always felt like there was still poop in her stomach.
The queen looked extremely resentful and said to Wu Guozhang who came over, "Father, does your majesty know something? Why did he seem to be a different person after he came back? He is so cold towards our Kunning Palace...
Is this your plan..."
Wu State
The husband glared at the queen, and then said: "What are you talking about? You have been in the harem for so long, and you still don't know that trouble comes from your mouth?"
The queen said to Wu Guozhang, "Father, I sent someone to inquire. Xie Hanzi came to the palace this time to report the case to His Majesty. Xie Hanzi said it with great certainty that the mastermind of this assassination was the Yuan family!
Your Majesty didn't believe it at first, but later Xie Xunfeng swore that he had solid evidence and gained His Majesty's trust... Could this be..."
After Wu Guozhang heard this, his face changed greatly and he said to the queen, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Is this news accurate?"
The queen nodded and said, "Father, I have been planning for the harem for so many years. If the information is not accurate, then I am afraid that my work as queen will be in vain."
Wu Guozhang said to the queen, "This is the end of Nalan's matter!"
The queen looked at Wu Guozhang's expression, which was not good-looking. She whispered to Wu Guozhang, "Father, is it possible that the assassination is really about you..."
Wu Guozhang scolded the queen, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask...keep a low profile in the harem these days. Take good care of your daughter."
After Wu Guozhang finished speaking, he hurried out with a sinister look on his face.
The queen's face didn't look good either, because Wu Guozhang's actions had already explained everything.
...
That night, in the Proton Mansion.
Xie Xunfeng asked Jing Fei to take out the customized copper hot pot.
I wanted to make a spicy hotpot.
However, there are not many seasonings in this time and space, so we can only make a shabu-shabu clear soup hot pot.
"Brother, what kind of way of eating is this? How come I've never seen it before? It's the first time I've ever tasted meat so fragrant..." Guan Chong sat in front of the hot pot and was amazed as he ate.
Even the sullen Huangfu Qiu enjoyed eating it.
"Xie Zhizi, even if those assassins don't come here today, I won't argue with you for the sake of this hot pot meal!"
Xie Xunfeng said to Huangfu Qiu, "Huangfu Ling, I said that it takes seven days to solve a case, but it doesn't necessarily take seven days... Maybe tomorrow the case will be revealed."
Huangfu Qiu looked at Xie Xunfeng, although he thought he was talking big words.
But, I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm holding on to a glimmer of hope...
Seeing that Huangfu Qiu remained silent, Guan Chong supported Xie Xunfeng and said, "Huangfu Ling, you have to believe what my elder brother says...my elder brother never brags. I started..."
Before Guan Chong finished speaking, he saw a few black figures jumping out from one side of the wall.
More than twenty people suddenly appeared.
The clothes these people wore were the same as the assassins' clothes back then...
After these people came in, they looked at Xie Xunfeng and the others sitting together.
"Hand over the evidence of the assassination and I will spare your life!" One of the leading assassins said to Xie Xunfeng.
Xie Xunfeng ignored them and directly picked up a chopstick of meat from the pot and dipped it in the dipping sauce.
Huangfu Qiu clapped his hands, and dozens of jailers came out from all around...
After the jailer appeared, he was surrounded by a group of assassins.
