Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me

These days, Shen Xiyue and Murong Xuan have been living in Cheng Mansion.

In addition to dealing with the confessions and physical evidence left by Cheng Su, they also have to investigate the people in various places who have become addicted to smoking.

I was so busy, angry, and heartbroken.

At this moment, she and Murong Xuan were in the study looking at the account book handed over by Cheng Su, when they suddenly heard a loud noise outside, and then Mao Ping's figure appeared at the door.

Mao Ping's voice was a little strange: "Your Highness, Young Master Cheng has returned home... and Princess Anle is with him."

Shen Xiyue: "......"

She was not surprised that Cheng Congxian came back, but how come Qin Qing was also hanging out with him?

So is she...walking into a trap?

Cheng Congxian walked in with a swagger, and when he saw Shen Xiyue, he was stunned: "Prince Qi, why are you here?"

Qin Qing, who was standing outside the door, was overjoyed when she heard the three words "Prince Qi". How come Qi Xun also came to Hangzhou? Zhilan must have asked him to come!

Then wouldn't I be safer with him around?

She hurriedly stepped over the threshold, but when she saw who was in the room, she was stunned.

She first saw Cheng Congxian calling the deadbeat she hated "Prince Qi"... Just as she was about to open her mouth to remind him, she saw Murong Xuan sitting behind the desk and looking at her leisurely...

Qin Qing's throat tightened, and she felt a overwhelming fear coming over her. She wanted to run away.

When she turned around, Mao Ping appeared in front of her, looking at her with a smile:

"Princess Anle, where are you going?"

Qin Qing was so frightened that she finally let out a loud scream and then fainted from fright.

Cheng Congxian shuddered, finally realizing that something was wrong. He looked at Shen Xiyue with a vigilant look on his face: "Where is my father? Where did you hide my father?"

Murong Xuan glanced at him indifferently.

Shen Xiyue looked up at him with a cold gaze and a calm voice: "Hangzhou prefect Cheng Su is corrupt and abuses his power, and has harmed the people. The dozen or so opium boats on the dock are evidence. He has been imprisoned in accordance with the Dashun laws."

Cheng Congxian's face was full of disbelief, and he kept shaking his head: "...No, no..."

He was completely confused about the situation. Wasn't Prince Qi in cahoots with his father? Why was he accusing his father now?

As for that opium...

He had no idea what kind of business his father was in the past. He only knew that the mansion always had plenty of money... He had probably heard that opium was harmful to people, but why would his father do this?

Shen Xiyue looked at Cheng Congxian steadily: "Originally, selling opium would punish the entire clan, but because you have made great contributions to the river embankment, you can be spared. However, exile for three thousand miles is still inevitable."

Cheng Congxian shook his head desperately: "No...my father would not do such a thing...he would not..."

Shen Xiyue pursed her lips and suddenly said, "Since you don't believe me, I'll take you somewhere."

She took Cheng Congxian to Chenxiang Tower.

Shen Xiyue still remembered that when she first arrived in Hangzhou, the waiter at the inn told her with a lewd look on his face that if she wanted to have more fun and exciting activities, she had to go to Chenxiang Tower.

After she took over Guangyuntai, she went to Chenxiang Tower once.

At that time, all the women in the building were half-naked, making obscene noises and talking nonsense. Everyone was like a puppet that had drunk medicine, doing whatever they were told to do.

Are those women naturally promiscuous?

No...they were just forced or induced to become addicted to opium.

A piece of opium cream the size of a fingernail can make a woman lose all her shame and sanity, turning her into a living money-making tool.

The strange smell numbs people's reason, making them want to destroy and indulge without bottom line in their drowsiness. People's spirit is trapped and their body is full of holes.

At that time, Shen Xiyue only took a look and immediately decided to close the Chenxiang Tower.

Cheng Congxian looked at the Chenxiang Tower in front of him and became even more angry: "Do you think I will forgive you if you bring me here to find a prostitute?! This young master has never looked down on a shabby place like Chenxiang Tower!"

Shen Xiyue stretched out her hand and pinched her brows. After a moment, she let out a long breath: "...Cheng Congxian, you can be considered a fool with good fortune."

It's already this late, and he's still thinking about these things!

Shen Xiyue stopped talking nonsense with him, raised her hand and pushed open the door, and said coldly: "Then come in and take a good look at what your father has done."

There are dozens of girls who are trying to quit smoking in the building right now.

At this time, some people were drinking medicine to quit smoking, some were tied to a pillar, sweating all over but fainted, some were crying and shouting because of the nicotine addiction, some were vomiting bile, and some were lying on the ground holding their stomachs and incontinent...

It's like hell on earth.

Just one glance and Cheng Congxian was so frightened that his legs went limp.

He was trembling and about to run out: "...No, no..."

He had been a little dissolute in the past and had bullied others a little...but he had never witnessed such a brutal and dangerous scene.

He couldn't believe it for a moment, and didn't know how to face it.

Opium is addictive. If you can't quit, you will become neither human nor ghost.

Cheng Congxian stared at all this in a daze. Suddenly, his legs went limp and he fell to the ground. After a long while, he covered his face and started crying: "...My father, he hurts others and ends up hurting himself..."

If a person has been living in an ivory tower and faces the cruelty of reality one day, it will be a devastating blow to the world.

Shen Xiyue didn't say anything. Cheng Su was just a puppet.

The account of selling opium will ultimately be held accountable to King Yao and Gu Zhilan.

She turned and walked out of Chenxiang Tower, looking solemnly at the endless mountains in the distance, then tilted her head to look at Shuangye: "Any news about Gu Zhilan?"

Shuang Ye was no longer as lively as before, and her face was solemn:

"My Lord, Master Cheng only said that Gu went into the mountains. Maoping has already sent more people these days, but has anyone found anything yet...My Lord, if she hides in the mountains under an assumed name and never comes out, it will be hard to find her."

Shen Xiyue hummed, then suddenly looked up at the azure sky and squinted her eyes: "She won't."

Based on her understanding of Gu Zhilan, a person who thinks she is a genius and is obsessed with competitiveness would not be willing to live in anonymity for the rest of her life... Didn't she say in her previous life that what she wanted was to leave her name in history?

If she hides in the mountains, how can her name, Gu Zhilan, be recorded in history books?
