Good! My stupid son finally rebelled!

Back to Beijing?

Zhao Wu was stunned when he heard this: "Your Highness, it's better not to go back to Kyoto."

"how?"

Ling Tian laughed and scolded: "You don't want me to cede land here and become the king, do you?"

"But……"

Zhao Wu was somewhat unwilling to accept this. Ling Tian had clearly done a good job in Huaitong County. Why would he choose to leave at this time? Isn't this...

Give away the achievements of this period of time?

Zhao Wu inevitably felt uncomfortable, but Ling Tian was very open-minded and whispered: "Zhao Wu, why bother about temporary gains and losses."

“Only when you are in the vast expanse of the universe.”

“You can have a broader perspective.”

"otherwise."

"After all..."

“It’s hard to succeed.”

Zhao Wu nodded upon hearing this: "Your Highness, no matter what you do, as long as you say it, Zhao Wu will support you unconditionally."

"okay."

Ling Tian laughed and scolded, "Keep a close eye on Wang Haisheng these two days. Let this old guy cool down first and stop him from thinking about the mine all the time."

"We also need to keep a close eye on Zhao Sihai."

"This old fellow is a wise man."

"There's still a bit of ruthlessness in him."

Gulu.

Zhao Wu nodded upon hearing this and left. Ling Tian secretly gave him some instructions and then returned to the yard. The sky was gradually getting brighter and Chu Wan'er was dancing with a sword in the yard.

As the long sword flew, the sword flowers kept blooming, giving her the temperament of a daughter of a general.

Ling Tian just took a look, and then the continuous sword flowers came towards Zhao Wu's throat. It looked like they wanted to tear Ling Tian into pieces. The latter chuckled.

Gently turn sideways.

He dodged the continuous attack in one go.

Seeing that her attack missed, Chu Wan'er angrily dropped the sword in her hand and snorted, "That maid from Dayuan is not bad, right?"

Jealous?

Ling Tian's heart moved, and he grinned: "Wife, the air is full of sour smell."

"roll."

Chu Wan'er snorted coldly: "I won't be jealous."

"Then why are you avoiding my gaze?" Ling Tian had a wicked smile on his face, and Chu Wan'er stamped her feet in anger: "I don't want to bother with you."

"correct."

Chu Wan'er seemed to have thought of something: "How is Zhao Qingya now?"

Zhao Qingya?

Ling Tian didn't intend to hide it: "She is dead."

"what?"

Chu Wan'er's beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at Ling Tian in disbelief: "What are you talking about?"

"Qingya is dead?"

Although Zhao Qingya usually likes to compare and is very arrogant, especially after hooking up with the third prince, she is even more arrogant, but strictly speaking, Chu Wan'er deep in her heart.

Still treats Zhao Qingya as his sister.

In the end, he just died like this?

How can this be?

Ling Tian took in all the changes in Chu Wan'er's expression, and understood Chu Wan'er's feelings towards Zhao Qingya. He comforted her softly, "Don't think too much about it."

"Zhao Qingya said those things in public yesterday, which has implicated the Third Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"If the two princes fight in the future."

"The Zhao family was the first to be destroyed."

"She must have thought about the interests involved, which is why she chose to commit suicide out of fear of punishment."

Ling Tian whispered: "In fact, this is the best ending for Zhao Qingya."

"You can imagine it for a moment."

"If Zhao Qingya really falls into the hands of the crown prince, or if the third prince asks for punishment, what will she face?"

Gulu.

Chu Wan'er swallowed her saliva. In Daqian, men are superior to women. If a man disobeys his master, he will neither be able to live nor die, let alone a woman.

Selling it to a black brothel is already the best outcome.

If she became a military prostitute.

I can’t imagine the result.

Chu Wan'er shook her head: "Qingya has been arrogant since she was a child. I didn't expect her to do such a thing."

"Could it be that someone poisoned me?"

Chu Wan'er narrowed her eyes and looked at Ling Tian: "Are you sure you committed suicide out of fear of punishment?"

"if not?"

Ling Tian shrugged: "Zhao Qingya was detained last night. Apart from me, the only other people who were there were Zhao Wu and Zhao Sihai."

"It's impossible for Zhao Wu to do that."

"As a father, Zhao Sihai would never poison his own daughter."

"You don't suspect that this prince wants to kill her, do you?"

Chu Wan'er frowned slightly. She naturally didn't believe that it was Ling Tian and Zhao Wu who did it. Her heart trembled violently.

Zhao Sihai!

Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs.

But that's a child.

Not a female!

If Zhao Qingya returned to Kyoto and Emperor Wu asked about what happened here, how would Zhao Qingya respond? The entire Zhao family would be completely destroyed, and so would Zhao Shang's future.

no longer exists.

This is the evil of human nature.

Once interests are involved, the first thing everyone can think of is...

Abandon the car to save the handsome man.

This is human nature and cannot be changed.

Chu Wan'er sighed softly, "Have you told Zhao Sihai about this?"

She could only pretend not to know. Ling Tian shook his head: "Not yet. Lord Wang from the Ministry of Industry brought people to Huaitong last night."

"I arranged for them to stay in Baihua Tower."

kindness?

Chu Wan'er frowned: "Did you do this on purpose?"

"What truth are you talking about?" Ling Tian said seriously, "How could I do something like this on purpose?"

"I clearly didn't do anything."

"Do you think I believe you?" Chu Wan'er also knew Ling Tian's thoughts. Once Wang Haisheng took over the mine, it would mean that he would have nothing to do with Ling Tian in the future.

The mine can only belong to Emperor Wu.

Take advantage of the opportunity to get as much as you can now.

Chu Wan'er calmed down and said, "It's almost time. Can we go see Doctor Li and Doctor Feng now?"

"also."

Ling Tian still attaches great importance to the vaccination against smallpox.

At this time, many people in the city have lined up in long queues at the vaccination site. Although everyone said they believed it, when the vaccination really started today, there were only one or two people in each household.

However, being able to do this, Ling Tian can be considered a success.

The cowpox vaccination was carried out in an orderly manner.

Two consecutive days.

All is well.

With Ling Tian's promotion, the cowpox treatment went smoothly, and even Zhao Sihai never showed up again. The death of Zhao Qingya became nothing more than a topic of conversation after dinner.

Everyone just laughed it off.

Two days later.

Wang Haisheng, who had been enjoying himself in Baihua Tower, could no longer hold back and came to Ling Tian: "Your Highness, I have been in Huaitong for two days."

“I never went to take over the mine.”

"I am almost done resting now, why don't we go there today?"

Ling Tian nodded and agreed. He glanced at Zhao Wu beside him, then slowly took Wang Haisheng away. Not long after, they arrived at the mine.

Looking at the ore in front of him that was being carefully guarded, Wang Haisheng smiled with satisfaction: "Your Highness really cares about the people of the world."

Ling Tian waved his hand quickly: "Master Wang, you are too polite. I would like to take this mine for myself, but I also need the ability to do so."

"Such ore can only play its greatest role in the hands of Lord Wang."

Wang Haisheng was confused by Ling Tian's flattery and entered the mine with satisfaction. He completed the handover procedures with Ling Tian without even looking around. After Ling Tian said goodbye to Wang Haisheng.

Then he went straight to the villa on the outskirts of the city.

at this time.

There are nearly a thousand sleeve crossbow parts in the courtyard, and there are more than 500 finished products. Looking at the dark courtyard of weapons, Ling Tian smacked his lips and said, "I finally feel a little confident."

Dongfang Yue stepped forward: "Your Highness, what should we do next?"

"Ah."

Ling Tian waved his hand: "Arrange the brothers and prepare to leave Huaitong."

leave?

Before Dongfang Yue could come back to her senses, Xiang Lin ran up to her nervously and said, "Your Highness, someone from the Xiao family in Guanzhong is here."

Xiao family?

Ling Tian narrowed his eyes: "Who is coming?"

Xiang Lin murmured and whispered, "Xiao Family in Guanzhong."

"Xiao Dingshan!"
