“This certainly can’t be left like this. Father has already sent people to deal with it, and those involved will be punished. However, considering that Liang Hongxiang deliberately scared his father to death, Father will appropriately reduce the punishment.”

Dog Egg was relieved. "Father, shall we go secretly again this time?"

"No. We're going to establish our authority this time, and if we're going to establish our authority, we have to do it in a grand and impressive way."

Three days later, Lord Miao was reviewing official documents when his clerk rushed in. "My lord, His Highness the Crown Prince and the First Prince have arrived."

Lord Miao glanced at his advisor. "So what if they're here? What's the rush?"

"His Highness the Crown Prince and the Emperor arrived in the Crown Prince's carriage, accompanied by more than two thousand attendants."

Lord Miao doesn't think much of it? "They've been playing the incognito game for so long, they should be tired of it by now. Where are they now?"

"We've arrived at Xujiazhuang."

"Then I'll go pick you up after I've finished reading this document."

"My lord, the Crown Prince seems to be acting a bit strange."

“What’s wrong with this? This is the demeanor a crown prince should have. Go and gather all the officials here. Once they’re all here, I’ll have finished watching.”

The advisor still felt that Ning Yirong's behavior was a bit unusual. "My lord, has the Crown Prince heard something?"

"What good will it do to hear it? If he came here as soon as he got out, I'd be worried. He's been out for so long, we've already taken care of everything that needed to be taken care of."

The clerk thought about it and agreed. "Sir, you are the one who can remain calm."

Lord Miao smiled. "Go ahead, I'll leave after I've finished reading."

"good."

After reading it, Lord Miao wrote some more words on it before coming out of the house.

After coming out, Lord Miao checked the appearance of his officials before setting off.

When Lord Miao arrived with his officials, Ning Yirong and his entourage were already close to entering the city.

As soon as Lord Miao arrived, he apologized to Ning Yirong. "Your Highness, I am late. I deserve to die."

Ning Yirong smiled. "You deserve to die a thousand deaths."

Lord Miao was stunned when he heard this.

The advisor's heart leaped into his throat. His Highness the Crown Prince was joking! His Highness the Crown Prince was joking! ...

Other officials were also praying that Ning Yirong was joking.

Unfortunately, after Ning Yirong finished speaking, he ordered the guards to remove Lord Miao's official hat.

Lord Miao snapped out of his daze. "Your Highness, I didn't know you were coming, that's why I'm late. You..." You can't take away my official hat because of this.

Ning Yirong looked at Lord Miao coldly and said, "If you haven't been corrupt and lawless, I won't have anyone take off your official hat no matter how late you come to see me."

Upon hearing this, Lord Miao immediately said, "Your Highness, I have not embezzled or broken the law, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ning Yirong ordered the guards to lay out all the people and things he had disposed of.

Lord Miao's face turned pale instantly.

The others didn't look much better either.

Lord Miao was their superior, and they were involved in the things he did to varying degrees.

The advisor immediately knelt on the ground. He sensed something was amiss with the Crown Prince's demeanor. "Your Highness, this humble subject was forced into this."

The others, upon hearing this, also said that they had all been coerced by Lord Miao.

Ning Yirong ordered the guards to remove all their official hats. "You're not three-year-olds. If he forces you, won't you complain to my father, the Emperor?"

Everyone was speechless.

Lord Miao was unwilling to accept this. "How did you obtain that evidence? I clearly sent people to handle it."

"Don't worry about that. Just wait to be punished." Now that he's out, he's definitely going to kill a few corrupt officials to deter others. As for how he obtained that evidence...

That heartless brat threw the father and son out with such fanfare that it was as easy as cutting grass.

That heartless little devil chopped at the grass, and the snake would naturally take action.

All he had to do was send people to follow those snakes.

He was emperor for so many years, which official had any problems? You can basically tell which official didn't have problems just by looking at the tax revenue and prices in the areas they governed.

Of course, besides catching corrupt officials, he also needs to find a few honest and upright officials to praise and reward.

Meanwhile, Ning Yirong dealt with Lord Miao and his men with lightning speed.

On the other side, Sisi was sunbathing in the Imperial Garden when Fourteen arrived.

When Shi Si saw Si Si like this, he wanted to kick her a few times.

This guy is living a more comfortable life than he ever did in his previous life!

This is absolutely outrageous!

Fourteen looked at Sisi with a forced smile and said, "Sunbathing?"

Sisi loved seeing Shisi's expression. "Yeah, aren't you envious? Aren't you jealous?"

Fourteen gritted his teeth. "Envy, jealousy. I have something to tell you."

"Alright." Sisi waved her hand, and the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs all withdrew. "Speak."

"Can you stop acting like an old man, spending all your free time in the yard in a rocking chair basking in the sun?"

Sisi gave Fourteen a smiley face. "No way. You know I loved sunbathing in my past life."

puff!

Fourteen felt like he was about to cough up blood!

"Yun Xiaoliu, are you doing this on purpose?" Back then, she was sunbathing right under his nose every day, and he never connected her with the man surnamed Jia.

"Call me 'sister'."

puff!

Fourteen coughed up blood again in his heart!

King Yama, you just wait!

"Sister, is that enough?"

Sisi pinched Fourteen's cheek. "Good boy. What do you need from your sister?"

Fourteen glared at Sisi. "Don't pinch me anymore, I'm all grown up now."
