"Liu Zuoyi, from the moment you betrayed His Majesty, you had no choice. This is what you asked for, and you must pay the price." Qingzhu stood beside Xiao Lichen and spoke for his master.
It was too late for Liu Zuoyi to regret.
He was blinded by greed and wanted to marry his daughter to the Huo family. Who would have thought that he would be cheated by the Huo family.
After receiving the secret letter and seeing the conditions offered by the other party, he decided to find an opportunity to attack Princess Anle.
The next day, he received an order from his superior, asking him to investigate the incident in which the Ninth Prince was besieged by wild wolves in the royal hunting ground.
He learned from the person in charge of collecting information in Xiaoyuwei that when the Ninth Prince was in trouble, Princess Anle was also present, but she was safe and sound.
After receiving this important news, he decided to take action.
As a result, they were defeated completely.
The Huo family was insidious. Not only did they betray his daughter, they also took advantage of him without mercy.
This time, as long as he doesn't die, he will definitely seek revenge on the Huo family.
Two Xiaoyu Guards pulled the distraught and disheartened Liu Zuoyi out of the room.
Tao Yuwei watched Liu Zuoyi being dragged away without any dignity, and she didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort in her heart.
Being kind to your enemies is being cruel to yourself.
She turned her head and her eyes fell on Xiao Lichen again.
[The beauty is as beautiful as jade, noble and proud, but unfortunately, she is short-lived! ]
No matter when, she has never been able to resist beautiful things.
What's more, the Prince of Yong in front of her was extremely handsome, cold and noble, which was beyond her aesthetic taste.
As a face control, she can hardly take her eyes off.
The original owner's aesthetic taste was on the same level as hers.
"Commander-in-Chief, you must give a satisfactory explanation for your people colluding with outsiders to frame this princess."
[As expected of the commander of the Xiaoyu Guard, he's incredibly well-informed. He quickly figured out his people's ill intentions and malicious attempts to frame this princess.]
The reason why the Huo family dared to hire someone to deal with her was because they didn't get any benefits from her at the eldest prince's birthday banquet last time and they were completely resentful of her.
Just wait for her. Once she finishes dealing with the matter of her father being framed, she will have time to deal with the Huo family.
[I can't sleep in early tonight. I have to go catch the person behind the slander that my father has a male mistress.]
[This person was one of the parties involved in the Zhuguogong case back then.]
"If we don't catch him, my father will lose face and his reputation will be ruined at tomorrow's court. The purpose of the person behind this is to seize the suburban camp that my father is in charge of."
Hearing her thoughts, Xiao Lichen was confused.
He simply skipped over the comment about himself being a short-lived ghost and focused entirely on the news he had heard.
Regardless of whether the news was true or not, at night he personally led people to follow and find out.
Xiao Lichen tried hard to calm down, dissatisfied with her unscrupulous gaze on him.
"Princess Anle, you saw it with your own eyes. I have dealt with it impartially."
This little girl is small in stature, but she has a big mouth.
Tao Yuwei was not afraid of his warning look. Her expression was calm, but her words were very impolite.
"You, Xiao Yuwei, abused your power, fabricated a false case, and implicated innocent people in imprisonment. Your explanation was far too perfunctory."
Xiao Lichen's face turned slightly cold. Princess Anle was well-known for her difficulty in dealing with people both inside and outside the imperial city.
He never thought that he would face this situation one day.
"What do you want?"
"Your actions this time have damaged my reputation and have had a very negative impact on the General's Mansion. Please personally escort me home and clarify the truth to the Emperor."
Tao Yuwei was not at all vague when she put forward the conditions.
Her life motto is that she cannot suffer any loss, and she cannot stand being bullied.
Xiao Lichen thought about it, and while Qingzhu was astonished, he called his master and said that he would personally escort Tao Yuwei back home.
Sitting in the luxurious carriage, Tao Yuwei lifted the curtains and stared at the prosperous and lively scene outside the window, her eyes fixed on it.
Xiao Lichen sat on the other side of the carriage, his eyes closed, full of patience.
She has many secrets. How did she obtain such precise information?
He had many doubts in his mind, and he had carefully sent people to keep a close eye on Princess Anle in front of him.
Tao Yuwei ignored the other people in the carriage and looked at the various food stalls outside the window with ease. When the carriage passed through the most prosperous area of the capital, Tao Yuwei stopped the carriage.
"Princess Anle, why do you want to stop here?" Qingzhu asked in confusion, standing beside the carriage.
"I heard that Xiangmanlou's braised pork elbow and salted pigeon are cooked in unique ways. Go and pack a portion of each for me to take back."
Tao Yuwei was so excited that she wanted to go out for a big meal.
However, she heard that the dishes at Xiangmanlou were quite expensive, so in order to save money, she decided not to go there.
Watching her lift the curtain and look up at the plaque of Xiangmanlou, her eyes shining and her saliva almost flowing out, Xiao Lichen reached out and knocked on the carriage.
Qingzhu immediately walked towards the door of Xiangmanlou.
Seeing this, Tao Yuwei was very satisfied with the attitude of the master and servant.
Well, his attitude in compensating her for being wronged was good, and he was willing to buy her food. Afterwards, she didn’t plan to make a fuss about it.
Originally, she had decided to make trouble for the Prince of Yong, who was deeply favored by Emperor Jianchang, and ask him to help her do something extraordinary.
In consideration of his good behavior, she would do it herself when the time was right.
Her mood improved. Tao Yuwei looked at the space ring on her right index finger. Her consciousness moved slightly, and an antidote appeared in her hand.
This potion was left over from when she used it to suppress the zombie poison during the apocalypse.
