Chapter 332 The Princess of the Dandy Princess Only Wants to Show Off 28

Mingnan took Xie Wuyu out of the house and ran into Yunqing who was looking for someone.

Yun Qing was stunned for a moment, his expression slightly changed. Before he could speak, someone hurriedly ran up behind him and said, "My dear, I found Zhuo Xiu, but I didn't see the king."

Mingnan raised his eyebrows slightly, pretending to be puzzled, "You're looking for me?"

Yun Qing bowed first, then stood up and looked from Mingnan to Xie Wuyu with an inquiring look, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I heard that the king was looking for me, so I wanted to come and greet him. I didn't expect that I couldn't find him. I was afraid that he was in trouble, so I asked my servant to look for him."

As he said this, he winked at the servant, who immediately stepped forward and said, "I have disturbed the king, please forgive me."

Mingnan waved his hands and said, "It's okay. I just came out to sober up. Wang Fu came to see me, so I was about to go home."

Yun Qing was surprised and hurriedly bowed and said, "I didn't know that you were the master. I hope you can forgive me for my disrespect."

Xie Wuyu glanced at Yunqing twice more and said calmly, "I have invited An and met him. What else is there?"

Yun Qing shook his head in confusion.

Xie Wuyu held Mingnan's hand, walked in front of him, lowered his eyes and said, "Get out of the way."

Yun Qing stepped aside subconsciously, and Xie Wu Yu led Ming Nan away.

The servant watched the man walk away and whispered, "Prince Rong's husband has such a bad temper and is so arrogant. No wonder Prince Rong came to our Yingchun Tower not long after the wedding."

Yun Qing thought about Xie Wuyu's cold and contemptuous look just now, and felt a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it. "By the way, what's going on with Zhuo Xiu?"

"I was just about to tell my husband that Zhuo Xiu was very drunk. I finally woke him up. He said that he had been with the king before, but they didn't have time to do anything. After that, he was drunk and didn't know anything. I guess Wang Fu came at that time."

"Is that so..."

Yun Qing narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction Mingnan left, dispelling his doubts.

Even if he had left, no one could enter the fourth floor without a key.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously reached for his sleeve, but found nothing.

Yun Qing's expression suddenly changed, "Oh no!"

The servant was startled, "My dear?"

Yun Qing wanted to say something but stopped himself, but decided to go back to the fourth floor to take a look first.

He ran upstairs without even catching his breath, first lit a tinder, shone it around, and sure enough, he found the key on the blanket at the door.

He walked over and picked it up, then checked the door lock, which was firmly locked.

It must have fallen out accidentally when he turned around.

But to be on the safe side, he opened the door and went in to check.

I breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that every account book was put away properly and that nothing in the box had been touched.

He leaned against the shelf with his strength exhausted, and then he realized that a layer of cold sweat had broken out on his back.

The servant was watching from below, not daring to come in, and asked softly, "My dear, are you okay?"

Yun Qing's face froze, and he quickly came out and locked the door, lowering his voice to warn the servant, "You better keep your mouth shut about what happened tonight. If a third person knows about it, you'll be the first to die."

The servant hurriedly swore and cursed, saying that he dared not do it, and Yun Qing was slightly relieved.

However, he didn't know that the so-called "account book" he saw there was actually a trick set up by Mingnan. The real account book had already been taken away by Mingnan.

…

Xie Wuyu pulled Mingnan out of Yingchun Building and walked directly to the opposite side.

When Guanqi saw the two men coming out, he quickly jumped off the carriage and brought a stool, "Lord Wang, Master——"

Mingnan nodded at him.

Xie Wuyu said, "Let's go."

He went up first, turned around and pulled Mingnan. Guanqi immediately put away the stool, climbed up quickly, and flicked the whip: "Drive——"

The horse immediately broke into a trot.

The carriage drove into the night and gradually went away without attracting anyone's attention.

Xie Wuyu turned on the light in the carriage, looked at Mingnan carefully for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "How is it, did you find out anything?"

Mingnan nodded, took out three account books from his sleeve pocket and threw them onto the low table.

Xie Wuyu raised his eyebrows, "Stolen from Yingchun Building?"

"Ahem..." Mingnan took a sip of tea and glanced at him, "What do you mean by stealing? That's so ugly. That's called borrowing."

Xie Wuyu: "..."

He picked up the top book, took a look at it, and his expression suddenly changed.

He originally thought that this was a record of corruption and bribery, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was all related to the Crown Princess.

It clearly records what crimes the officials in the Crown Princess's camp had committed and how much money they had embezzled. Even in which houses the Crown Princess had planted spies was recorded.

The scope of the matter, no matter how big or small, is staggering.

Xie Wu Yu's eyelids twitched and he quickly closed them.

Mingnan put down the teacup, held his chin up and smiled, "Am I awesome?"

Xie Wuyou was speechless.

Such a deadly thing must have been hidden very deeply, and Mingnan must have spent a lot of effort to get it.

He whispered, "Are you sure you haven't been discovered? Are you injured?"

Mingnan was stunned. He didn't expect his first reaction to be this.

She joked, "Shouldn't you care about how I got it?"

"Don't interrupt, are you really okay?" Xie Wu Yu was worried and couldn't help but pull her hand over and pinch it upwards.

"Hey, hey, hey, stop pinching, it's itchy——"

Mingnan couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, it's really okay. If you don't believe me, I'll check it out when I get home."

Hearing the word "go home", Xie Wuyu calmed down a little, let go of Mingnan, and flipped through the remaining two books. The more he read, the gloomier his expression became. Finally, he snapped the book shut and asked in a deep voice: "Mingjin is really brave. What are you going to do? Tell him to Yu?"

Mingnan stroked the account book lightly with his fingers and said meaningfully, "In fact, there is another book in the box, which records who the Queen Mother has met and what secret orders she has issued."

Xie Wuyu was shocked, "How dare she?"

"Why not? I'm just giving it a try." Mingnan tapped the account book with his fingertips. "If you hadn't discovered that the teahouse's account was wrong, I wouldn't have investigated the manager. If I hadn't investigated, I wouldn't have discovered that she was related to Yunqing. If I hadn't investigated Yunqing, I wouldn't have discovered these things."

And if she didn't have magic, she wouldn't be able to get the evidence so easily.

"Come to think of it, I have to thank you."

Mingnan looked at Xie Wuyu with a smile.

The oil lamp on the small table was emitting a soft glow. When she looked over, her eyes were full of smiles, which made Xie Wuyu's heart flutter.

He turned his face away, and the fingers on his knees could not help but curl up. "No need, just raise your hand."

He immediately remembered Mingnan's words and asked in confusion, "Why didn't you take out that one too?"

Mingnan smiled and said, "Wouldn't I be the first to come forward? When the Queen Mother asks me how I got these things, how would I answer? Sometimes, if you want to live a good life, it's better to be mediocre. Let the Crown Princess wade through the Hunshui River this time."

After returning home, she called Haobai and gave him a few instructions.

Haobai accepted the order and went out with the account book.

After delivering the hot potato, Mingnan felt a lot more relieved. She was a little tired after a busy night. She stretched and turned around, and saw Xie Wuyu with his head down, thinking about something.
