As soon as Guard Qi shouted, almost everyone in the Wen family knew that their prince's tooth, which had been wobbling for half a month, had finally fallen out.

Gu Yuzhi covered her mouth, stomped her feet, and stared at Guard Qi with wide, unblinking eyes, full of accusation: "Guard Qi, Guard Qi, if you say that, everyone will pay attention to my teeth when they talk to me from now on!"

The guard scratched his head and said sheepishly, "Your Highness, even if I didn't say anything, they would still find out..."

Gu Yuzhi stomped his foot again: "You still dare to talk! You still dare to talk!"

He decided to be angry with the guards for a quarter of an hour!

Gu Yuzhi pouted and hummed, then turned her gaze to Guard Zhang, her tone becoming much more cheerful: "Guard Zhang, Guard Zhang, did Brother Tian Shu succeed?"

Guard Zhang chuckled softly, "Your Highness, rest assured, everything is going smoothly! The criminal Bai Jiwu is being escorted by guards and is being prepared to be sent to the capital."

There is currently no evidence to prove that Bai Jiwu colluded with the prince, but Bai Jiwu illegally imprisoned a prefectural governor and ignored the people's survival by sealing off the city without cause. Naturally, he should be sent to the capital for the emperor to judge his crimes.

Guard Zhang continued, "I must hurry back to the manor to report to Your Highness. I will be leaving the city to escort you soon."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuzhi's face puffed up, and he hurriedly instructed, "Mingli! Quickly go and tell Granny Xu that Guard Zhang is leaving again soon, and tell her to pack some dry food or something."

His eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "I'll treat Guard Zhang to a delicious lunch."

During this period, not only did the physician Qin find no problems when examining the pulse, but he also said that the patient's body was stronger than before!

With Qin Yuanpan's words, Gu Yuzhi finally convinced Xu Mama to stop making medicinal meals for him!

Although he was tired of eating medicinal cuisine, he still believed in its nourishing effects. Whenever someone in the household felt unwell, he would have the kitchen staff prepare medicinal cuisine for them for a few days.

We must strive to ensure that everyone in the household is in excellent health!

Gu Yuzhi blinked at Guard Zhang, grinned, and then quickly covered his mouth. Seeing Guard Zhang nod, he turned to look at Mingli.

Mingli felt somewhat helpless. Before leaving, he gave Guard Zhang a particularly sympathetic look, and then jogged to the kitchen.

The guard, Zhang, was somewhat puzzled, but still followed Gu Yuzhi and whispered, "Your Highness, has Prefect Qi had any news about Li Tong?"

Speaking of this, Gu Yuzhi became even happier, shaking his head and saying, "Prefect Qi just came to report yesterday that Li Tong has confessed!"

He scratched his head and sighed like a little adult: "It's just a bit of a pity that the evidence that Brother Chu is the owner of Li's Trading Company has been destroyed by Li Yanping."

No matter how stubborn Li Tong was, he couldn't outmaneuver the prison guards' endless interrogation methods, and he was tortured like a hawk.

He felt like he was living a life worse than death every day, but the jailer drugged the water he was given, so he couldn't even bite his tongue to commit suicide.

In just a few days, one of his legs had been scraped down to the bone.

It was only at this point that Li Tong realized that when Prefect Qi personally interrogated him on the first day, it wasn't with such simple methods, but because Prince Wen was also present.

Several days ago, Li Tong had already revealed all of Li Ji Trading Company's influence in the whole prefecture, as well as Li Yanping's private property here.

Houses and land were confiscated and resold after being registered by the prefect. Silver, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings were put into Gu Yuzhi's warehouse.

When this matter was mentioned, Gu Yuzhi became quite animated: "Guard Zhang, Guard Zhang, let me tell you, this Li Yanping is really rich. Chief Secretary Xie is still busy in the warehouse."

Otherwise, Chief Secretary Xie would definitely be by his side.

Guard Zhang and Guard Qi exchanged a glance, neither of them expecting such an unexpected surprise.

The guard Qi smiled and said, "Your Highness, the planting in Xinliang should have already begun. I happen to be going to Xinliang to deliver grain. Why don't you also give me the expenses for Xinliang, and I will bring them to Consort Chen?"

Judging from the young prince's smiling face, Li Yanping must have quite a bit of private wealth.

With His Highness's treasury so full at the beginning of the year, Chen Dianyi shouldn't be as frugal as he was last year, trying to stretch every penny in half.

Gu Yuzhi nodded his little head repeatedly, subconsciously replying, "Okay, okay, and I..."

The next instant, Gu Yuzhi suddenly covered his mouth with his hand and smacked his head hard with his other hand, saying silently, "Oh dear, I said I would ignore Guard Qi for a quarter of an hour, and it's a quarter of an hour. It's not time yet!"

He snorted at Guard Qi, tilted his head to the side with his chin raised, and then looked at Guard Zhang: "Guard Zhang, Guard Zhang, tell me the details of what happened in Quanzhou. I'm so curious!"

Once Guard Zhang finishes reporting on the affairs of the entire prefecture, a quarter of an hour will definitely be up!

He would then speak with Guard Qi and inquire about their grain purchase situation in Jinzhou.

Even the most oblivious guard, Qi, realized that the young prince was angry with him.

But he didn't know what he had done wrong, and scratched his head pitifully. When he looked up, he saw Qin Yuanpan's ambiguous smile, and leaned closer to whisper, "Qin Yuanpan, is the young prince...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Judge Qin said decisively, "Yes!"

He patted Guard Qi on the shoulder: "Guard Qi, I advise you not to speak. Once the young prince calms down, he will naturally pay attention to you."

Guard Qi wasn't worried about this, after all, he knew what the young prince's personality was like.

He asked worriedly, "I just want to know, why is His Highness angry with me?"

He didn't say anything, did he?

Judge Qin shook his head and said helplessly, "His Highness has been suffering from losing his baby teeth and hasn't been getting much sleep lately. This is a very sensitive time for him. Why would you remind him at this time?"

Guard Qi was somewhat incredulous: "Just because of this?"

Judge Qin said decisively, "That's why!"

Qi, the guard, looked astonished and slowly turned to look at Gu Yuzhi. After a while, he muttered, "These days, you can't even tell the truth anymore."

Gu Yu was unaware of Qi's frustration, as he was happily listening to Zhang talk about the affairs of Quanzhou.

In retrospect, it was thanks to Bai Jiwu's sudden lockdown that Li Tong stayed in the military camp after arriving in Quanzhou, and had no time or opportunity to contact the people in charge of Quanzhou.

Therefore, the people of the Li Ji Trading Company in Quanzhou had no idea that Li Yanping was so audacious as to commit the robbery and murder of a prince.

When Guard Zhang and his group arrived in Quanzhou, the situation there was just as Chief Secretary Xie and his men had feared: the city was not fully open and was still basically under Bai Jiwu's complete lockdown.

He didn't take action against the people from Li's Trading Company immediately, but instead waited for news from Huo Liangyao while secretly inquiring about the Li's Trading Company.

What he needed to do was to be quick, accurate, and ruthless, and try to take down all the people in Li's Trading Company as soon as possible!
