Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

The situation was urgent, and the two men did not dare to waste time. They hurried into the palace with the token, met the emperor, and explained the whole story.

Looking at the familiar half of the token, the emperor was furious and threw it to the ground. "Great, what a great military supply depot! I never thought that my Great Yong Dynasty would be so leaky!"

"Changli, I order you to immediately conduct a thorough search of the military supply depot. All personnel in the capital may be mobilized. Anyone who disobeys will be executed on the spot without reporting."

"I accept the decree."

Chen Changli clasped his fists in greeting, but then he saw the emperor take out a brush and ink and write an imperial edict to him on the spot: "This is an imperial edict for a thorough investigation of the military supply depot. Take it, and I believe those people will not dare to embarrass you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After receiving the imperial edict, the two did not stay any longer and left in a hurry to discuss where to start the investigation.

Seeing Wan Shufang's exhausted expression, Chen Changli felt distressed. He pulled her to sit down and massaged her shoulders. "Shufang, I'm sorry to have made you follow me again. I originally wanted to take you on a journey around the world, but I didn't expect something to go wrong in Yongzhou City again."

"Chen Changli, you're saying that again. I'm happy to be with you, whether we're traveling around or investigating cases and arresting people."

After she finished speaking, she held Chen Changli's face with both hands and said word by word, "As long as you are by my side, understand? If you feel sorry for me, then give me a massage. Our Duke is very skilled."

Hearing these words, Chen Changli's mood instantly improved. He smiled and rubbed her hair, carried her to the bed, and began to massage her.

"Shufang, why don't you just rest in the mansion and I'll go check the military supply depot myself."

"No, if we work together, we will have to be more careful and solve the problem faster. We should finish the investigation sooner. I also want to deal with the Xiao family."

"Okay, it's all up to you."

The two chatted casually and soon finalized the plan. Wan Shufang felt sleepy, yawned, and fell asleep unknowingly.

Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Chen Changli raised the corners of his mouth slightly, forming a beautiful arc, and lay beside her, hugging her and falling asleep.

At this time, the Xiao family.

Xiao Jingheng had been ill for a long time and when he took the medicine, he felt his stomach churning and felt very uncomfortable. He gritted his teeth, drank the medicine in one gulp, and then stood up with the help of the table.

"Hmm..." Xiao Jingheng's face looked grim. He suppressed the urge to vomit and walked out of the room step by step.

At this moment, he was the only one in the room, so he planned to go out for some fresh air and to suppress the unpleasant smell of medicine. However, after he had taken only two steps, Xiao Jingheng saw Shangguan Chu.

Just when I was about to call her, I found Shangguan Chu looking nervous and sneaking into the kitchen.

"What is Ah Chu doing..." Xiao Jingheng murmured. As if possessed by some unknown force, he followed him. When he saw Shangguan Chu's actions through the window, his face suddenly changed.

The churning feeling in his stomach became stronger. Xiao Jingheng squatted down, holding his stomach, and was filled with doubts: "Achu, is she drugging me?"

He had just recognized that the drugged meal was the chicken soup he drank every day...

"How is this possible? Ah Chu loves me so much. She is my wife. How could she harm me?" As he said this, when Shangguan Chu came out again, Xiao Jingheng quickly hid himself.

Looking at her leaving the house, he turned back to his room, feeling suspicious. Xiao Jingheng couldn't help it after all and sent his confidant to follow her.

It was not until late at night that the confidant returned to the mansion with an angry face, and looked at him distressedly: "Master..."

"Tell me quickly, where is the young lady going?"

"Sir, that woman is not worth it. She is simply a vicious and venomous woman. She is actually hooking up with Liu Mochen, and they are so close that they are plotting to poison you!"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Jingheng's heart skipped a beat. He shook his head in disbelief and kept muttering, "Impossible, how could Ah Chu..."

Seeing that his master did not believe him, the confidant became anxious and knelt on the ground and swore to the sky: "Master, this is what I saw with my own eyes. I swear that every word I said is true, otherwise I will kill me to pieces."

This poisonous oath completely blocked Xiao Jingheng's way of deceiving himself. He seemed to be crazy, crying and laughing: "A Chu, how could you."

"How could you do this to me!"

Xiao Jingheng's eyes were bloodshot and he was filled with anger. He punched the wall hard, and the wall instantly made a loud "bang" sound, which scared the servant.

He quickly stopped Xiao Jingheng and said earnestly, "Young Master, calm down. You are still sick. Don't get angry and hurt yourself."

Hearing this, feeling the strong arms around his waist, Jamel Xiao silently pulled his lips: "When will the young lady come back?"

"Sir... When I came here, Madam was about to return, and she should be here soon."

"Okay, clean this place up."

After saying that, Xiao Jingheng turned around and left, returning to his room silently. He sat on the bed and waited until Shangguan Chu came back, then suddenly pulled him over with force.

"Ah! Jingheng, what are you doing?" Shangguan Chu was startled. He patted him with lingering fear and wanted to get up, but the man in front of him did not move.

For a moment, she was a little flustered and asked tentatively: "Jing Heng, what's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

"Achu, why did you betray me?"

With a loud "bang", Shangguan Chu felt her mind was in chaos and her eyes were dull, but Xiao Jingheng did not let her go and spoke in a resentful tone.

"Achu, why did you betray me?" He asked again, but did not point out the poisoning, which calmed Shangguan Chu down.

Thinking he had heard some gossip, she pretended to be angry.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"I'm very tired. Let's take a rest. The baby is tired too." She took Xiao Jingheng's hand and placed it on her belly.

Touching the slightly pregnant belly, Xiao Jingheng was stunned for a moment, but in the end he said nothing and just lay on the bed holding her silently.

Early the next morning.

Chen Changli and Wan Shufang got up early and rushed to check the warehouse. The general in charge of guarding it had received the news long ago and was waiting outside the door.

Seeing the two people coming, he quickly saluted: "Sir, Madam."

"Well, let's take a look at the arsenal."

"Your Excellency and Madam can rest assured. The inventory in our military supply depot is intact and the accounts are clear. We have absolutely no intention of taking advantage of the situation." As he said this, the man handed the account book to Chen Changli with a calm look.

Seeing this, Chen Changli said nothing, but just flipped through it silently, looking at the man out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing his eyes flicker, Chen Changli had a hunch that something was wrong, so he deliberately knocked over the account book without holding it firmly. Among the scattered pages, there was a warehouse receipt with bright ink.

"Sir!" The general was quick-witted and wanted to grab the list, but Chen Changli was faster than him and got it first.

The ink on the list was still wet, clearly a tampered inventory receipt. Chen Changli looked at the general with a deep gaze, "Is this what you meant by clear accounts?"
