"That won't work. Since the Second Prince has already arrived in Xia Country, he can't just leave whenever he wants! Come on, take the Second Prince back and serve him well!"
Li Xiaochen shook his head and shamelessly took the money away.
"yes!"
Wang Yu took the second prince and two subordinates with him and arrested them.
"Li Xiaochen, if you detain me today, aren't you afraid that my father will start a war?"
Qiu Tinghao's face turned cold and he threatened Li Xiaochen.
"I am actually looking forward to it. I am tired of you guys sending people to my country to get information from time to time. It's like this in Qi, Zhao and Northern Xinjiang. Do you really think that our Xia country is easy to bully? I really want to start a war now! Let's fight! When I scare you guys off, you won't be so annoying anymore!"
Li Xiaochen said nonchalantly that he was really annoyed by these fleas, who came to test Xia Country from time to time. Even though they were not annoyed, he was annoyed.
In the past, he did not think that the other countries were going so far, but ever since Xinxin found so many spies, he began to investigate the entire country, and anyone with a suspicious identity would be secretly checked.
After checking, he actually found a lot of bad apples, which made him realize that the Xia Kingdom was completely clean. It was terrifying to think about it!
No wonder Xinxin said in her heart that Xiaguo was in danger of being destroyed. With so many nails, it was a miracle that Xiaguo survived!
However, this investigation was a blessing in disguise. They found many orphans like Cheng Tinghao and found their parents. For those who couldn't find their homes, Li Xiaochen directly threw them to Zhao Shijie and asked his family to start training new recruits according to Lin Yuxin's method.
It's time for Xia Country to have a fresh blood, and saving so many children is a good deed.
Qiu Jingfan had ulterior motives when he came to the capital. He did not realize it when he entered the capital. It was only when this guy took the risk to go to Xinxin's house to investigate that he found something wrong and sued him.
He was suspicious and worried that this might be bad for Xinxin, so he went to check on the man, but he didn't find him.
As Xinxin said, if you are here now and don't leave something behind, it would be a shame.
Li Xiaochen thought it made a lot of sense, so he followed Xinxin's example and directly took the money away.
As for the war he mentioned? In the past, he would have been a bit cautious and worried about the loss of manpower and property.
But now! With Lin Yuxin's explosive package as a backup, he is really not afraid.
Although there are not many of these treasures, they are very powerful and can be used as a great weapon when necessary.
You can say that he is fearless, he is confident now, and Xinxin is his confidence!
At this moment Qiu Jingfan wanted to break out in resistance, but there was no way, because his powerful army had already surrounded the city gate, and he had nowhere to run even if he wanted to.
The rest of his men stayed outside the city for fear of alerting the enemy.
It's fine now. Everything was fine when I came here. I can't go back.
Qiu Jingfan wanted to curse his mother, but he had no choice but to let Li Xiaochen take him away.
Li Xiaochen looked at his back. Since he had detained the second prince, the Zhao State could be left to the emperor to worry about!
Li Xiaochen rode back. It snowed a few days ago, so he had to go to the warehouse to see if there were any good furs. He would ask the housekeeper to take them and make a cloak or scarf for Xinxin so that she wouldn't be cold.
Hmm! Make her another pair of shoes!
Lin Yuxin didn't know yet that the person who was targeting her had been caught by Li Xiaochen. At this moment, she was holding the invitation handed to her by Zhao Hanya and reading it again and again!
Puzzled, he asked:
"Will I go to this party too?"
Zhao Hanya nodded and said to Lin Yuxin:
"The invitation from Prince Gong's Mansion says that Princess Shuhe is getting engaged, and they are inviting noble ladies and husbands from the capital to attend the event to liven up the party and add to Princess Shuhe's appearance. And they specifically asked you to go, so it's hard to refuse. But if you really don't want to go, then don't go. Will they blame you?"
Zhao Hanya still doesn't know what happened between Princess Shuhe and Lin Yuxin. She still puts her daughter's wishes first. If she doesn't want to go, then don't go. If Prince Gong's Mansion doesn't want to blame her, then let her father talk to Prince Gong's Mansion?
Lin Yuxin pursed her lips, touched her lower body, and thought.
[To be honest, I really don't want to go. That Princess Shuhe is simply sick. She likes Li Xiaochen and can't tell right from wrong. She can't get Li Xiaochen but she's looking for trouble with me. I guess this banquet is specially arranged for me! ! ]
[She plotted against me last time, but I took advantage of her and made her stay in the brothel for a few days. Her innocence was ruined. It's no wonder she doesn't hate me! ]
[But if I don't go, wouldn't it mean that I'm afraid of her? Wasn't that woman sold to a brothel? Is she looking for someone to take the blame? No, if I don't go and check out this gossip, I won't be able to sleep!]
After figuring it out, Lin Yuxin looked at Zhao Hanya and said:
"Okay, I'll go!"
Zhao Hanya listened to her daughter's thoughts and knew that Princess Shuhe had a grudge against her daughter, but since her daughter had already decided to go, she would just keep a close eye on her. She herself had suffered at such banquets, and she didn't want her daughter to suffer the same.
"good!"
…
Time passed quickly, and it was January 1st, the time when Prince Gong held a banquet.
Lin Yuxin was woken up early by Xiaodie and started to dress up.
Lin Yuxin closed her eyes and let Xiaodie torture her. Finally, she got on the carriage and followed Zhao Hanya out of the house.
When they arrived at Prince Gong's residence, many officials' wives were already at the door.
Lin Yuxin slowly followed Zhao Hanya out of the carriage and prepared to enter the palace.
But there are always a few people who don't have eyes.
"Hey! Isn't this the legendary Princess Pingning? We have only heard of her but never seen her! Today the sun is rising from the west. Our Princess Pingning is actually out?"
A woman in a light yellow silk dress looked at Lin Yuxin with disdain on her face and said.
Ha! A country bumpkin actually became a princess. I wonder what tricks she used?
"Yes! If it weren't for the Prince Gong's Mansion inviting me here, I really wouldn't want to go out in such a cold day!"
Lin Yuxin stood beside Zhao Hanya, glanced at her, and said lightly.
The emperor and Li Xiaochen did not publicize Lin Yuxin's ability and talents. At the state banquet half a month ago, Lin Yuxin showed her talents and helped Xia Kingdom save face, so Lin Yuxin's name became the topic of after-dinner conversation at that time.
Some do not believe it, some admire it, and some think that women should just get married, take care of their husbands and children, and not seek attention.
It’s just that Lin Yuxin ignored it at that time and let it go. Lin Yuxin’s name has long been forgotten by them.
However, some smart officials would still notice something, especially since Lin Yuxin is now more than just an ordinary princess.
He was granted a fiefdom not long ago. Once he had a fiefdom, he had real power. Some officials who sensed something was wrong would report it to their wives and daughters.
Tell them not to mess with Lin Yuxin. It's better to make the relationship better. Even if they don't have good relationships, don't make them enemies!
