An Xin was finally invited into the palace by King Cheng reluctantly.

However, when he heard the palace’s chief steward quietly report to him that a team of royal guards was parked in an alley a hundred meters away from the palace, King Cheng then felt how wise it was to invite them in.

He said, why would an envoy from a foreign country come here with a big banner to collect debts for no reason?

It turned out that the man behind this was unable to find any ministers in this dynasty, and was willing to anger so many aristocratic families to do such an annoying thing for him, a new emperor who had just ascended the throne.

King Cheng looked at An Xin with a mixture of mockery and pity.

The debts these people embezzled from the national treasury have long become bad debts, and it is difficult for anyone to get the money back.

The envoy from another country, with his spectacular actions today, will only turn himself into a clown and become a laughing stock in the capital of Beiming.

An Xin noticed that Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng, who had just come in from her, were both very polite and didn't say a word. There was contempt and disdain in their eyes for her.

There was still a faint smile on his face, without a trace of anger at being looked down upon.

This demeanor stunned Princess Cheng, who was sitting high up next to him, for a moment. She looked at An Xin a few more times with arrogance in her eyes.

An Xin never knew how to beat around the bush when speaking, and asking for debts in a roundabout way was out of her league. Being straightforward was her style.

"Prince Cheng, right?" An Xin took out a small notebook and said, "On May 12, the third year of Kangyuan in Beiming, Prince Cheng's Mansion borrowed 200,000 taels of silver from the treasury managed by the Ministry of Revenue.

It has been thirteen years. Now the new emperor has ascended the throne, the treasury is empty, and it is only natural that debts should be repaid..."

King Cheng saw An Xin chattering like she was chanting a sutra. He glanced at her with disgust and waved his hand in pain.

"Don't read it, I don't have any money." King Cheng may feel embarrassed, so he added: "Even if I have money, I can't pay this debt."

An Xin did not change his attitude because King Cheng refused to return the money.

King Cheng felt uneasy at her quiet look, and said impatiently, "Others don't pay it back, so why should I pay it back?

If you have the guts, go to the Gu family and ask for the debt. He is the new emperor's uncle, and he doesn't even pay it back, so why should I pay it back?"

General Gu is as vicious as his nephew Si Han. If this foreign envoy dares to go to the Gu family to collect the debt...

King Cheng looked at An Xin and was afraid that he would go in vertically and come out horizontally.

An Xin glanced at King Cheng indifferently, then looked at Princess Cheng, whose brows were furrowed and whose face was filled with deep sorrow.

"I heard that your young master has been bedridden for a long time. It seems that he will not live long?"

"Asshole," Princess Cheng's face turned red with anger, "Where did you come from? How dare you say that about my son."

An Xin's eyes flashed coldly. He originally wanted to punish the arrogant Princess Cheng, but when he thought about what he said, he felt that he deserved a beating.

Then he took back the internal force gathered in his palm.

She stood up and walked towards the door. "I wanted to do you a favor and tell you that I have a way to cure the little prince. It seems that she doesn't need to become the princess anymore."

"Stop," Princess Cheng shouted excitedly, "Are you telling the truth?!"

She had only one son, who had been unlucky from the beginning and was bedridden later. Princess Cheng sought medical advice and medicine, and even asked a master to perform a ritual so many times that she had no idea how many times she had asked him.

I tried everything, but my son didn't get better.

King Cheng and Princess Cheng were extremely worried and at a loss as to what to do.

What made Princess Cheng hate him even more was that her son was not only her only son, but also the only male heir in the Cheng Palace so far.

Ever since she became ill, her husband, Prince Cheng, was worried about an accident and the possibility of no one inheriting Prince Cheng's palace. So, in the past few months, he has taken in many concubines just to give birth to another male heir.

Princess Cheng looked at the wrinkled old face of King Cheng and smiled coldly. If King Cheng wanted to give birth to an heir to inherit the palace in place of her son, that would depend on whether she agreed or not.

King Cheng has been struggling for so long, but the woman in his backyard is still silent.

Naturally, he took to heart what An Xin had just said, that he could cure his only son.

"Lord Envoy An, wait a minute." King Cheng stood up and stopped An Xin, who was about to step out of the door, and softened his voice: "You just said that you have a way to cure my son, but is it true?"

An Xin looked at Princess Cheng and King Cheng who ran over to stop him with the same nervousness. The two asked the same question and he nodded slightly.

Then he stretched out his palm and shook it towards them.

The two men were stunned at first, then they realized what his gesture meant, and their faces darkened.

King Cheng and Princess Cheng looked at each other.

The man thought of the group of women in his backyard who didn't lay eggs. His eyes darkened and he didn't say anything for a while, still thinking about holding on.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Princess Cheng, who was in her forties and had given up hope of having another child, met An Xin's affirmative look and believed that this foreign envoy would not dare to lie to her about this matter.

Otherwise, if something really happened to her son, she would try her best to drag this female envoy to hell.

Princess Cheng, who already believed that An Xin had a way to save her son, turned around and looked at King Cheng. It was unknown what she said to him as she approached him.

An Xin saw a flash of anger on King Cheng's face, then he looked at Princess Cheng with gritted teeth and closed his eyes.

He walked out with his trusted butler.

However, Xiao Wenrou, who originally wanted to come along to cause trouble for An Xin, was invited in by Princess Cheng.

When Xiao Wenrou came in, there was obvious displeasure on her face.

It was just because Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng had learned that An Xin, the debt collector, had come with the imperial edict and had to be welcomed into the palace. They were angry and refused Xiao Wenrou, who wanted to follow her into the palace.

With Xiao's gentle and noble character, how could she be happy after being rejected at first and now being invited in again?

However, Princess Cheng did not invite her into the palace just to make her happy.

It was only because An Xin said that Xiao Wenrou had the medicine to cure her son that Princess Cheng ordered someone to bring her in.

Xiao Wenrou said arrogantly, "Humph! Didn't Princess Cheng refuse to receive me? Why are you sending someone to invite me now?!"

The coldness in Princess Cheng's eyes almost turned into reality, but for the sake of her son she still forced a smile, "Miss Xiao is joking.

It's all because of those servants' lack of perspective. How could they reject you, the emperor's confidante? Don't be angry, Miss Xiao. I have already punished those ignorant servants."

Xiao Wenrou raised her chin, looking superior, "That's about right."

"Is this bitch here to ask you for a debt? Don't give it to her."

Although Princess Cheng didn't want to give the money to An Xin to pay off his debts, as a princess of noble status, she would never be happy to be ordered by such an unknown person.
