Chapter 96 She is good at it
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. In just three months, no, two months, I will have her completely transformed and become a new person."
She is good at taking revenge on scumbags and manipulating their emotions!
It’s much more fun than keeping a mistress!
Seeing Princess Mingxia so enthusiastic, Xiao Jingfan's prepared speech was useless.
"Your Majesty, where is that girl now?" Princess Mingxia was rubbing her hands in anticipation, wishing she could snatch the girl back to her mansion for hellish training right now.
Xiao Jingfan had to remind her, "She's pregnant, so take it easy."
Don't make him miserable and waste his efforts.
Princess Mingxia immediately assured her, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I have prepared four doctors for her and will definitely take good care of her pregnancy."
If a child can tie a woman down, who says he can’t control a man?
The chips are ready-made, so why not use them?
Xiao Jingfan stared at her: "Don't reveal a single word."
Princess Mingxia nodded solemnly.
Hehe, there will be fun in the next two months.
Seeing that she understood the seriousness of the matter, Xiao Jingfan didn't give any more instructions and said to Xie Hui, "Send the person to the Chongde Marquis Mansion secretly later."
Xie Hui bowed: "Yes."

The capital posthouse.
"Did you find the person?"
"Your Highness, no."
"Useless!" Goryeo's third prince, Yin Taiyu, waved his hand and overturned the teacup, scolding, "Keep looking, we must find him back!"
The guard hurried out to continue looking for someone.
"Taewoo, sit down." The third prince's teacher, Kim Changxu, gestured to the opposite side.
Yin Taiyu sat down irritably and kicked away the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.
Jin Changxu soothed him, "The capital is huge, and it won't be easy to find her with only the few people we brought with us. She has no documents on her, so she can't escape from the capital. Just wait patiently for a day."
"If she's caught by the soldiers of Sheng State, we're finished!" Yin Taiyu slammed the table. "How can I be patient, sir?"
"Taewoo!" Jin Changxu's face darkened. Before he could finish his words, a guard came in and reported, "Your Highness, the Second Prince of Xixia wishes to speak with you."
"Wei Mingliang?" Yin Taiyu frowned and waved his hand, "Just say I'm sick and we'll meet again another day."
He was already in a bad mood, so how could he have the time to deal with Wei Mingliang?
"Wait a minute." Jin Changxu stopped the guards and said to Yin Taiyu, "I heard that Xixia is also here for firearms. Your Highness, why not go and meet him and hear what he has to say."
Yin Taiyu was very reluctant. "The Xixia people are cunning. Wei Mingliang is obviously a villain among villains. I am worried that I will fall into his trap."
"How can Your Highness encourage others to become more ambitious and destroy your own prestige?" Jin Changxu said with a smile, "As long as Your Highness doesn't make promises to him rashly, even if he has plans, he won't be able to harm Your Highness."
Yin Taiyu still hesitated.
Originally, it should have been the eldest brother, not him, who was sent as an envoy to Sheng State this time. However, the eldest brother suddenly fell off his horse and broke his leg, so he could not go on this mission.
Somehow, his father chose him, a lazy guy, to make this trip on behalf of his elder brother.
He didn't take it seriously at first, but he never expected that there was such a big trouble hidden in the team.
The princess who was married off to a foreign country was pregnant. If the emperor of Sheng State knew about this, it would be hard to say whether they could go back, let alone buy firearms from Sheng State.
Now he just wanted to quickly send the fake princess into the harem of the Emperor of Sheng State, do a firearms business with Sheng State, and then leave.
He didn't want to get involved at all with someone like Xixia who was keen on stirring up trouble.
Jin Changxu advised: "Your Highness, please do not act willfully. You should put the overall situation first."
Yin Taiyu scratched his hair irritably, stood up and said, "I'll go, sir, come with me."
At the same time, in the courtyard where the Western Xia envoys lived, Wei Mingliang was also feeling a little upset.
"Hasn't anyone been found yet?"
Tuoba Yong, who had just returned, shook his head: "That guy can shrink bones and is also good-looking. I think he's hiding by disguising himself as a woman."
There are not enough people, and we have to search without alerting anyone. What we are looking for may have legs and can run. How can it be so easy to find it?
Wei Mingliang walked back and forth twice with his hands behind his back and asked, "You just said that you ran into Gao Li's guards last night. Are they also looking for someone?"
"Yes." Tuoba Yong nodded, "He must be looking for a woman."
"A woman?" Wei Mingliang narrowed his eyes and looked back at him, "But is it the princess from Goryeo?"
Tuoba Yong shook his head: "Probably not. I asked the people at the post house, and Princess Gaoli has been staying inside the post house and has never gone out. Someone even saw her standing under the eaves admiring the snow last night."
"Then what kind of woman will they look for?" Wei Mingliang frowned in thought.
At this moment, the guard came to report: "Your Highness, the third prince of Goryeo has arrived."
"Please come in."
The guard went out to ask for help.
Wei Mingliang turned to Tuoba Yong and said, "If you really can't find her, then forget it. Helan Shan is a master of martial arts, and nothing will happen to him easily. Just take your men and guard the princess. Don't let anyone suspicious get close to her room."
"yes."
Tuoba Yong took his men away and passed by Yin Taiyu and his group.
Tuoba Yong was really tall and strong. Yin Taiyu couldn't help but look at him twice and felt very envious.
Why can't he practice like this?
Jin Changxu coughed twice.
Don’t look at it anymore. It won’t grow on you.
Yin Taiyu curled his lips, but when he turned around, he put on a smiling face and greeted Wei Mingliang who was standing under the eaves.

Wenhua Hall.
Zhou Yuande had just seen off the two ministers when he looked up and saw the queen's sedan chair coming towards him.
He stood for a moment, waiting for the sedan chair to approach before going forward to greet her, "Long live the Empress."
Queen Zhong nodded at him, "Your Majesty, are you free at this moment?"
Zhou Yuande didn't dare to make his own decision. He bowed and said, "Please wait here for a moment, Your Majesty. I will go in and report."
Xiao Anzi brought a chair over and asked Queen Zhong to sit down.
Just as he sat down, Zhou Yuande came out and said, "Your Majesty, please come into the hall to talk to your Majesty."
Qiu Sui supported Queen Zhong and walked into the side hall.
"Your Majesty, may you be well."
"Get up." Xiao Jingfan leaned back on the couch, circling the bodhi beads twice on his right hand. "Why are you here now?"
Empress Zhong sat down opposite him and said, "I have found out who murdered Xiao Xuanzi and came here to inform Your Majesty."
Xiao Jingfan has been very busy recently and didn't realize who Xiao Xuanzi was.
Empress Zhong thoughtfully reminded: "It's the eunuch from the cold palace who was thrown into the well."
Xiao Jingfan remembered and asked, "Who is the murderer?"
"He is the eunuch in Yihe Palace, his name is Fugui."
"The people from Yihe Hall..." Xiao Jingfan moved two bodhi beads, "Have you verified it?"
Queen Zhong nodded: "Fugui does have a birthmark behind his ear, and he has confessed to murdering Xiao Xuanzi."
She glanced at Xiao Jingfan's expression and lowered her voice, "Fugui said that everything he did was ordered by Concubine Xie."
Xiao Jingfan raised his eyebrows and turned the bodhi beads in his hand faster. "What is your intention?"
Queen Zhong winked at Qiu Sui.
Qiu Sui took out the confession from her sleeve and unfolded it on the small table in front of Xiao Jingfan.
"This is Fugui's confession. Your Majesty, please review it."
Xiao Jingfan lowered his head and read the whole thing at a glance.
Empress Zhong said softly, "According to Fugui, Xiao Xuanzi was the thief who broke into the pharmacy that night. He was instructed by Concubine Xie to poison the medicinal powder Chu Liu was using, with the intention of preventing her injuries from healing."
"Jie Yu Xie isn't such a malicious person." Xiao Jingfan grasped the bodhi beads and pointed at the word 'wealth' on the paper with his index finger. "Besides this, do you have any other evidence?"
