After learning the first level of Dugu Nine Swords, she was quite satisfied. At this level, she could at least survive ten moves from Xingmu.
Okay, I don’t want to play anymore. My boss wants me to go move bricks.
Ye Qingwan calmed down her emotions, and suddenly her face was filled with anger. She swept all the fruits and snacks on the table to the ground, knocked on the table and shouted: "Honghong, Honghong, let me in."
Honghong immediately jumped down from the roof. Seeing the mess on the ground, her forehead was instantly filled with black lines. This drama queen has started again.
But he still pretended to be confused and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Go, find a few people right now and kidnap the steward of the Ninth Prince's Mansion for me."
Honghong: ? ?
Aren't you supposed to kidnap the Ninth Prince? Why are you kidnapping someone else's housekeeper?
"What is this for?"
"Do I need to explain to you what I do? Go now."
Honghong had no choice but to do as she was told, but she was grumbling in her heart, "What a little girl, with such a strong taste. How old is the housekeeper?"
Soon, the butler was brought to Ye Qingwan, tied up with red clothes, with a rag stuffed in his mouth.
Ye Qingwan was holding a small whip and sitting in front of the housekeeper with one foot on the chair, looking like a female bandit. When the housekeeper saw her, he trembled and didn't even dare to resist.
"Butler, do you remember me? I'm the eldest daughter of the Xiangfu, Ye Qingwan, whom you particularly dislike."
The butler thought to himself, I'm just old, not senile, how could I not remember, so he nodded obediently.
"Just remember. I'm giving you two choices now. One, hand over the evidence of Nangong Muyun's rebellion, and I'll let you live. Two, I'll kill you now."
When the butler heard that she was going to slander the prince for treason, he was so scared that he shook his head quickly. He felt sorry for the prince even though his neck was not broken.
What's wrong with this Miss Ye? Can something like treason be taken as a joke?
Section 64
That means exterminating all nine clans. Although the prince will not exterminate all nine clans, everyone in the palace will lose their heads.
"You won't tell me?" Seeing him like this, Ye Qingwan waved her hand and instructed Honghong: "Take him to the sky, throw him down and smash him into a pulp. Also, kill all nine of his clansmen for me."
When the butler heard this, he was so frightened that he almost passed out. He kowtowed and begged for mercy, babbling and unable to utter a single word.
Ye Qingwan pulled the cloth out of his mouth and asked, "How is it? Have you figured it out?"
"Miss Ye, I'm not helping you, but I don't have any evidence. Let's not talk about whether the prince will rebel or not. Even if he does, he might tell me."
"I know he won't tell you." Ye Qingwan said.
Butler: ? ?
You knew that and you still tied me up? And you forced me to tell you?
"So I need you to cooperate with me."
"How do you cooperate?" The butler seemed to have realized her purpose: "You don't want me to slander my prince, do you?"
"Yes, how come you are so smart?" Ye Qingwan pretended to be surprised: "I like working with smart people the most."
The butler wants to die, but I don’t think you are very smart and I don’t want to cooperate with you.
Rebellion is not a big deal. We two, with no evidence, just our mouths, want to prove that the prince is rebelling? Do you think you are playing with mud?
If you want to die, please don't drag me into this?
Ye Qingwan ignored him and handed him a letter: "This is the evidence that your prince has been communicating with foreign countries and is trying to rebel with the help of foreign forces. Take it. When I expose him, you will come out to testify. Understand?"
I understand it, but it’s not very reliable.
"Ms. Ye, I think this is not a safe idea. How about we discuss it?"
Ye Qingwan waved her hand and said, "No need to discuss. This plan of mine is perfect. You just need to do as I say. Remember, don't play tricks on me."
Then he pointed two fingers at his eyes and said, "I'm watching you. If you play tricks on me, I'll kill your whole family."
Chief Steward: ...
I don't want to play tricks, but the evidence you provided is a little insufficient.
Ye Qingwan naturally knew that this piece of forged evidence was not enough to prove that the Ninth Prince was plotting a rebellion. She had never intended to prove it. He was the male protagonist. If it was proven, how could he turn things around? How could the female protagonist come out of nowhere?
By then he won't be able to make a comeback, the show will be finished, and she will have to start all over again. She really doesn't want to do it again, it's too difficult. If she does it again, the system won't crash, but she will.
The butler knew that his life would soon be in danger, so he secretly sent his entire family out of the city overnight before anything happened.
The Ninth Prince naturally noticed his abnormality and guessed that Ye Qingwan had started the fight. But he was very puzzled. If she wanted to find someone to slander him, could she find someone more reliable?
He has so many confidants, why not just find a butler who has nothing to do with him? Even if you find someone with potential, it would be better than finding a butler, right?
Really, who are you insulting?
Sure enough, within a few days, with the help of the sect and the Minister of Justice, Xia Xuejian successfully caught all the masterminds and accomplices who embezzled the disaster relief grain. Those who did not participate were naturally released.
Her father was also on the release list, and the emperor was grateful for their integrity and dedication, and also because they were forced to be implicated and suffered injustice, so he promoted each of them. Now her father is no longer a fifth-rank official, but a fourth-rank official.
The Xia family was celebrating, and Lord Xia finally began to look at his inconspicuous little daughter in a different light.
Xia Xuejian's status in the family has skyrocketed, even surpassing the eldest son. Now even Lord Xia thinks that his daughter can become the future queen.
The emperor finally had time to deal with Ye Qingwan. He had known for a long time that Ye Qingwan was outside the city to provide disaster relief. But he had been so busy recently that he really had no time to deal with her. Now that he had time, of course he had to give her a good beating.
Last time he failed to use her to strike back at Prime Minister Du, this time, he couldn't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
So he took advantage of the court session to start a fight, roaring at the prime minister and asking him all kinds of questions. But the prime minister had not been prime minister for so many years for nothing. No matter how the emperor threatened and lured him, he only said, "I don't know."
Then it was: "My little daughter is naughty, please calm down, Your Majesty."
With the phrase "the little girl is naughty", the whole thing was defined as a child's play. Because there was no big commotion, the emperor was so angry with the prime minister that he almost vomited blood.
At this time, Lord Xia, who had already discussed this with Xia Xuejian, suddenly stood up and listed the harm of this matter, which even reached the level of disregarding human life and causing unrest among the people.
The Prime Minister looked at him disdainfully and said with a half-smile, "Sir Xia, this is a new official's first move. I didn't realize that Sir Xia has such eloquence. I am shortsighted."
If I had known that you had such eloquence, I would have sent you to be an envoy to a foreign country long ago, so that you could use your eloquence to win back a few inches of land for our Dayu.
Lord Xia naturally knew that the Prime Minister was laughing at him, but now that he dared to stand up, he had already decided to stand on the Prime Minister's enemy side, so there was nothing to worry about.
So he begged His Majesty, "Your Majesty, this matter was caused by my daughter and the Prime Minister's daughter. I dare to invite the two of them to the court for a confrontation."
"I object. The court is an important place. Do you think it is a vegetable market, Lord Xia?"
The Prime Minister became anxious when Ye Qingwan was mentioned. This child was very honest and might recognize her right away.
