Chapter 322 Are you deceiving the emperor? !

The ministers suddenly turned around and looked at the version of "Ao Qi" with the birthmark who was still kneeling on the ground. The shock in their eyes was almost solidified.

“You—Mmmmm!!” Are you bullying me?!

Are you lying to the Emperor Mingze, whose face is filled with the aura of a king? ! !

How dare you? ! ! !

Minister of Revenue Jiao Hongmiao pointed at the other party with trembling hands, but just after he shouted out one syllable, Lu Yao next to him quickly covered his mouth.

"Ao Qi" raised his head with a puzzled look at the senior official in the capital who had just spoken.

Lu Yao's face changed, and he patted Jiao Hongmiao's back twice with his hand, saying in an exaggerated tone: "Oh, Mr. Jiao, I know you are hungry. We only have the last two cases to decide. Please be patient, be patient!"

Jiao Hongmiao: “…”

Jiao Hongmiao's eyes turned and he stared at Lu Yao for a long while. Although he couldn't accept this reason, he calmed down in the end.

He smiled with a fake smile, and said loudly: "Okay, then I will be patient for a while!"

Ao Qi's strange eyes lingered on Jiao Hongmiao's slightly swollen belly for a moment, and he said guiltily: "It is my fault that I have delayed your meal..."

Jiao Hongmiao: “…”

What does that look of yours mean?

What do you mean by that look?!

Kill you ahhhh!!

Jiang Yingcheng was actually a little hungry. Not only hungry, but also a little tired.

After they had lunch at noon, they rested for a short while before returning here again. While upholding justice for the righteous people here, they also screened a number of useful talents for her handsome father.

Although she was very tired, she was always very happy.

However——

[Are you lying to Cheng Cheng?!]

Then Cheng Cheng can't forgive him! !

Jiang Yingcheng was so angry that his cheeks bulged, and he immediately immersed himself in the information about the real Ao Qi in front of him, trying to find any clues about this person.

【Chengcheng is going to fight with you! 】

Because this person had been with Ao Qi for most of his life, Jiang Yingcheng only took a moment to find relevant information about this person, and then he repeated it consciously in his heart -

[Xun Xing, because of a brown mark on his face, was considered by his fellow villagers to be the reincarnation of an evil spirit. Hmm... his parents died early, and his family property was divided up by his uncles, so he could only beg for a living. Later, Ao Qi's family saw how pitiful he was and took him home to raise him.]

[In the first few years, the family atmosphere was very harmonious. Ao Qi's parents really treated Xun Xing as their own son, and Xun Xing was very grateful for their kindness, but...]

Jiang Yingcheng suddenly took a deep breath and was shocked by what he saw next: [How could there be such a bad person?!]

The ministers understood clearly.

The story of the farmer and the snake is not common, but it is not difficult to understand.

The older the adopted child grows, the more he or she will feel that the adoptive parents will naturally favor their biological child, and then become jealous and resentful.

Plus, Xun Xing is hiding his identity, and wants to find out the whereabouts of the heirloom...

Although the young man did not say it explicitly, they almost guessed what would happen next.

After his adoptive parents passed away, they left the family heirloom to the real Ao Qi, and the fake Xun Xing planned to kill people and steal the goods - in the end, the people were killed, but the things were not found.

Sure enough, the next moment when everyone's thoughts fell, the young man confirmed their guess in his heart.

[…However, the heirloom had already been handed over to Xun Xing a long time ago——]

[It was a treasure map. Ao Qi had already sewed the piece of cloth with the treasure map embroidered on it into the purse given to him!]

[But after Xun Xing plotted to kill Ao Qi, he casually threw the purse into the cave where Ao Qi was temporarily resting. The cave was nearby. Uh——]

Jiang Yingcheng's expression froze suspiciously for a moment.

[Huh? ! ! ]

She reacted belatedly, and her inner voice suddenly became sharp and loud: [Treasure map? ! ! ! ]

[He threw away Cheng Cheng's treasure map?! ]

All the people present were startled by the sudden increase in the volume of the inner voice.

After the heartbeat calmed down, there were waves of secret joy again!

After spending so much time with the little guy, they have somewhat picked up on each other's hobby of treasure hunting.

Especially after thinking about how they had just shared several boxes of gold and silver because of the young man's hobby, everyone's breathing became much faster unconsciously!

Where is the purse? Where is the cave? Where is their treasure? !

In their excitement, they didn't even realize that the kid had already "taken" the treasure map for himself.

Jiang Yanchuan paused tapping the round table with his fingertips, and some interest arose in his heart.

A large amount of gold and silver was spent on purchasing real estate some time ago, so let's not count the money in his private treasury... He would have to find a way to compensate the concubines and court officials for what they spent.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yanchuan raised his head and winked at Yu Xingmian opposite him.

Yu Xingmian: “…”

There is a sentence that I don’t know whether I should say it or not.

He has not been in the palace for that long, and he has not yet mastered the skill of analyzing dozens of thoughts from Emperor Mingze's cold face.

However——

He also has his own ideas.

There are mountains in the distance and clouds over it. Even if the kid has the help of "Brother Tong", it still takes a lot of effort for him to find that place.

Fortunately, there is a ready-made guide here.

"Ao Qi," Yu Xingmian leaned over and looked at Xun Xing with an extremely sincere look, "Are you mentally ill?"

Xun Xing: “…”

The ministers present: "..."

...You who are involved in the "evil cult" always speak directly?

Xun Xing's face instantly turned slightly red with anger: "What do you mean, sir?!"

"The heirloom is extremely valuable. It is true that I was wrong for not keeping it properly, but you also--" You can't insult me ​​like this!

Yu Xingmian raised his hand to stop Xun Xing's long speech: "I mean, have you ever been injured in the head?"

Xun Xing: “???”

Do you think that will make it better?!

"No!" Xun Xing's eyes were about to spit fire, "If I have done anything to displease you, sir, you——"

"If not," Yu Xingmian spoke again, interrupting the other party's angry voice once again, "then how could you forget that you sealed the heirloom in the inner compartment of the purse you gave to Xun Xing?"

The expression on Xun Xing's face immediately dropped completely, and all his resentment was condensed into one sentence -

"ah?"

Yu Xingmian still looked gentle and polite: "So, is there something wrong with your brain?"

The ministers present: "..."

Xun Xing came back to his senses: "..."

"……have."
