Long Jingyan came out of Jiang Taohua's room and returned to his own room.
Not long after, Han Sui came in from outside and reported to him, "Your Highness has investigated clearly. It was Wang Dafu who asked Xiaohong, who served Miss Jiang, to drug her. Wang Dafu got that One Night Spring from his teacher Liu Gui."
It's Wang Dafu again! Long Jingyan's face turned ugly when he heard this, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Go and find out where Liu Gui lives."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Long Jingyan finished speaking, he ordered, "Tell Ziming and Ziwu to keep a close eye on Wang Dafu."
He understood Wang Dafu's purpose in sending Jiang Taohua to him. Wang Dafu wanted to win him over by sending him beautiful women.
Unfortunately, he was wrong. He always enforces the law impartially and will not show favoritism just to please others.
At the same time, Liu Gui was being praised by Wang Dafu, who patted Liu Gui on the shoulder and said, "Liu Gui, your idea is quite good. Jiang Taohua successfully defeated the King of Jin last night. It seems that the King of Jin is not bad at that."
Liu Gui smiled and said, "Sir, since Jiang Taohua has successfully seduced Prince Jin, you should bribe Jiang Taohua with a large sum of money and ask her to find out why Prince Jin came to our Jiangzhou City. Then, ask Jiang Taohua to speak well of you in front of Prince Jin so that you can be promoted in the future."
Wang Dafu felt that what he said made sense, so he decided to give Jiang Taohua some more gold, silver and jewelry to bribe her, so that Jiang Taohua would speak well of him in front of King Jin in the future.
In his opinion, Jiang Taohua was a prostitute and must love money very much. He could bribe Jiang Taohua by giving her more gold, silver and jewelry.
So when he returned home, Wang Dafu learned that Prince Jin was not in the mansion, so he asked Xiaohong to call Jiang Taohua to the water pavilion, asked everyone to leave, and then placed a box of gold, silver and jewelry on the stone table.
He opened the gold and silver jewelry and said to Jiang Taohua flatteringly, "Miss Taohua, this is a gift from your humble servant to you. Please say a few good words for me in front of the King of Jin."
Without waiting for Jiang Taohua to speak, Wang Dafu continued, "If Miss Taohua can speak a few good words for me in front of the King of Jin and ask him to promote me, I will never forget your kindness and will always be filial to you in the future."
The implication is: As long as you help me with things and help me get promoted, we will be in the same boat and can share the happiness in the future.
Jiang Taohua knew Wang Dafu's wishful thinking, but she would not help him do anything. However, she agreed on the surface, "Okay, I will say a few good words for you in front of the prince."
She has always disliked going against gold, silver and jewelry. Since Wang Dafu brought the gold, silver and jewelry to her door, she had no reason not to accept them.
Seeing that she agreed, Wang Dafu was overjoyed.
As he expected, Jiang Taohua was a greedy and lustful woman who had no resistance to gold, silver and jewelry.
After Jiang Taohua agreed to Wang Dafu's request, she returned to her house with the gold, silver and jewelry.
When Long Jingyan came back, Jiang Taohua was tactful enough to give Long Jingyan the box of gold, silver and jewelry that Wang Dafu had given her.
"Your Highness, the prefect gave me a box of gold, silver, and jewelry today, and wanted me to say a few good words for him in front of you. I didn't want to have too much communication with him, so I pretended to agree."
Jiang Taohua explained to Long Jingyan the origin of the box of gold, silver and jewelry, and then looked at him timidly with her beautiful eyes: "Your Majesty will not blame me, right?"
Seeing her staring at him timidly, Long Jingyan said, "Don't worry, I won't blame you."
Before she could speak, Long Jingyan continued, "Wang Dafu is corrupt and oppresses the people. He is not a good person. From now on, you should stay in the yard and don't meet him alone."
Once he finds the list of people who colluded with Wang Dafu, he will deal with Wang Dafu.
"Yes, Your Highness." Jiang Taohua nodded obediently, then asked Long Jingyan, "Your Highness, what should we do with this box of gold, silver, and jewelry?"
"Keep it for yourself." He will replenish the money after Wang Dafu's house is searched.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Jiang Taohua nodded obediently.
Long Jingyan added: "You don't need to help me wash up tonight. I have to go out tonight and will be back very late."
Jiang Taohua nodded obediently. Knowing what Long Jingyan was going to do, Jiang Taohua was ready to help Long Jingyan.
In the evening, Long Jingyan took Han Sui out.
When Jiang Taohua saw them go out, she exchanged the invisibility pills from Pangpang and hid her body.
After learning from Pang Pang where the account book of Wang Dafu's collusion with others was, Jiang Taohua swaggered to the place where Wang Dafu hid the account book.
After getting Wang Dafu's account book, Jiang Taohua asked Pangpang to quietly deliver the account book to Long Jingyan's men.
Pangpang dropped the account book from the sky and gave it to Ziwu, who was hiding in a tree and was diligently monitoring Wang Dafu.
Long Jingyan was completely unaware of all this. Led by Han Sui, he came to Liu Gui's residence.
Liu Gui had been controlled by his two subordinates, Guyu and Guli. He was tied up and sitting on a chair, with a rag blocking his mouth and his eyes full of fear.
When Guyu saw Long Jingyan coming in, he immediately brought a chair.
Long Jingyan sat on the chair that Guyu brought.
"Guyu, take the rag out of his mouth." he ordered.
"Yes, Your Highness." Guyu responded and removed the rag that was blocking Liu Gui's mouth.
Liu Gui was just filled with fear because he didn't know who had kidnapped him, but now that he knew who had kidnapped him, he was filled with despair from the bottom of his heart.
The King of Jin had someone kidnap him. He knew what the King of Jin was going to do without having to think about it.
