Chapter 244 New Source of Income
In the dead of night, the emperor often couldn't help but sigh:
Thanks to the late emperor for creating the Jinyi Yunqi.
This is a force that is always and unconditionally loyal to the emperor.
With Jinyi Yunqi in hand, many things seem to have become much easier.
As the leader of the Jinyi Yunqi, Li Gan is the emperor's sword.
How could the emperor just throw away this knife so easily?
He acted as if he was fed up with Li Gan, just to send a signal to outsiders, making them think that Li Gan had fallen out of favor.
But he did not remove Li Gan's position.
Those with ill intentions will naturally take this opportunity to win over Li Gan.
Of course, in order to avoid accidentally hurting those who are upright and not snobbish, Li Gan’s investigation results must be based on real evidence.
Don't hurt a good person by mistake, and don't let a bad person go.
The emperor believed that Li Gan could carry out his will thoroughly.
Besides, the Jinyiyunqi led by Li Gan is not the only secret force in the hands of the emperor.
The emperor knew this, and Li Gan knew it too.
In Li Gan's opinion, the emperor was not stupid, he just liked to protect his children and was a little suspicious. Other than that, there was nothing wrong with him.
Therefore, compared to his own father who was easily influenced by others and biased, Li Gan felt that the emperor was truly a wise and enlightened person who was worthy of his life and loyalty.
…
Xia Daohua packed the reply letter and return gift to Li Gan, and then handed them to Li Shisuo, asking him to take them back to Li Gan. At the same time, she responded to his repeated probing with an innocent look on her face, saying that she didn't understand.
Li Shisuo was somewhat suspicious of Xia Daohua.
When Li Gan received the package of letters from County Magistrate Xie and other evidence, the first person he thought of was Xia Daohua.
Although the handwriting on the letter was unfamiliar, the bundle containing the documents was very familiar. It seemed to be a kind of fine cloth that he had only seen in Xia Daohua's hands.
However, Li Gan did not reveal his guess except to a few of his most trusted confidants.
The reason why Li Shisuo kept probing was because of his uncontrollable curiosity - even if the case was really committed by Xia Daohua, he didn't want to arrest Xia Daohua, but to solve the mystery and find out how she managed to rob the two houses of the Xie family without leaving any traces!
Of course Xia Daohua couldn't tell him! So far, no one was qualified to know!
Xia Daohua smiled and invited him to eat a new type of candy melon, which successfully stuck Li Shisuo's mouth shut, making him unable to say a word. After using the same method two or three times, Li Shisuo quietly closed his mouth and stopped asking questions.
However, looking at the four huge packages in front of him, which contained various gifts, all of which were for Li Gan and some other friends living in Kyoto whom Xia Daohua met through Li Gan, Li Shisuo refused in his heart.
Unfortunately, Li Gan had told him before they came that if Xia Daohua asked him to bring anything back, he must accept it all.
After all, he had seen the efficacy of the golden wound medicine.
Li Shisuo thought about the effect of the golden wound medicine, and finally accepted these things with a grimace, and even hired an extra carriage for this purpose.
…
The downfall of County Magistrate Xie caused a huge uproar in Jixiang County.
However, some of the illegal activities of County Magistrate Xie were soon exposed. Most of the people in Jixiang County were kind-hearted and did not like to kick someone when he was down.
After hearing about what happened to Magistrate Xie, people would often just sigh and say something like, "It's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet" or "If you don't believe it, just look up and see who will be spared by heaven." That's all.
When County Magistrate Xie and his family set off on their journey, some ordinary people even prepared some wine and food for them as a farewell gift.
County Magistrate Xie cried in front of the people with snot and tears all over his face, no longer showing any of his former elegance.
Mrs. Xie has always been in poor health, but for some reason she has become stronger these days.
Even on the way to exile, she was still able to force herself to move forward instead of dying of illness.
Mrs. Xie's family was kind and came to see her off and even arranged for the officials to come.
While the Xie family was having their house searched and being detained, Mrs. Xie's family had been running around, trying to rescue County Magistrate Xie's family, or at least the women and children.
As a result, a lot of money was spent, but it was all in vain.
However, because of their efforts, the Xie family suffered less. Especially Xie Fanglan and other female relatives, not only were they not harassed, but their original clothes were also kept.
Therefore, the jewelry and banknotes that Xie Fanglan had hidden in advance were all hidden and were not searched away.
Xia Daohua took back the cameras that she had left in the two houses of the Xie family. Two or three of them were secretly taken away by the soldiers who were confiscating the house, thinking they were exquisite and beautiful gadgets.
Xia Daohua shook her head. It was not that she wanted to meddle in other people's business. Who asked them to take her camera away? Now, she had a backup of their secrets...
On the day when the Xie family walked to the dock of Jixiang County and were exiled to Lingnan by water, Xia Daohua also went to see them off.
She gave Xie Fanglan several packets of pills that were commonly used by ordinary people at that time to relieve heat, detoxify, prevent diseases, and reduce fever - she spent money to buy them from the pharmacy at that time, they were ready-made medicines developed by the people of the Great Chu Dynasty themselves - and also gave the Xie family a packet of fried noodles, a few bars of soap, and a few soft blankets for keeping warm.
Xie Fanglan looked at Xia Daohua with a very complicated expression.
Finally, she couldn't hold back the tears, turned around, covered her face with her hands, and cried bitterly.
Of her close friends, apart from her cousin Helan Yue, only Xia Daohua came to see her off. From the bags Xia Daohua prepared for them, she knew that this friend was sincere to her.
It’s a pity that I was insincere towards Xia Daohua at the beginning!
Xia Daohua looked at Xie Fanglan's tears and felt a little sad.
If Xie Fanglan really regarded her as a friend, she could easily help Xie Fanglan. With Space Supermarket in hand, making money was too easy for her.
In this time and space, the real difficulty she faced was how to protect her wealth under the greedy eyes of the wolves.
Xie Fanglan is a girl who suits her taste in every aspect.
Not long after they met, she even thought that if Wulang passed the imperial examination in the future, would he have the opportunity to marry Xie Fanglan.
What no one expected was that what happened next was that Xie Fanglan actually used a maid to plot against Wu Lang and her own family property.
My counterattack was initially just to vent my anger, and later on, to resolve the issue once and for all.
However, when he really saw this girl, who was originally extremely capable and courageous, following her family on an uncertain and confusing path of exile, he felt unusually depressed.
Xia Daohua saw the Xie family set off amid the scolding of the officers, and she turned back silently. In order to divert her attention and relieve her depression, Xia Daohua began to think about new sources of income.
