After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

He thought he should know what was in the box.

Wang Zetian opened the box carefully with trembling hands. As expected, there was a letter and some of Wang Jingrui's personal belongings inside.

Wang Zetian opened the letter, glanced at it, and burst into tears. He could no longer control his emotions and broke down crying at his desk in the study.

The guards outside did not dare to go in, and everyone in the villa was quiet.

After Xu Yingying returned to the inn, her face was expressionless. Lian Qiao was by her side, and she didn't know what to say. After a long while, Lian Qiao hesitated and said, "Madam, don't worry too much. Master Wang..."

Xu Yingying nodded randomly. Sitting in the room, she just felt a little tired.

"Yingying, how is it?" Li Siqi saw Xu Yingying coming back and hurriedly went to ask, "Yingying, how is it? Did you reach an agreement?"

Xu Yingying shook her head in frustration. "No, he refused to see me, so I just asked someone to pass the things to him. I thought if he saw it, he would come to me on his own initiative."

Li Siqi fell into deep thought, but he also noticed Xu Yingying's frustrated look, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm here for you. If he really doesn't want to see you, I'll help you."

What Li Siqi meant was, of course, to summon Master Wang using his status as emperor.

However, although Li Siqi only said this, after walking out of the box, he still sent someone to pass a message to Wang Fu. Of course, he did not do so in the capacity of an emperor. He just asked someone to pass on a few words to Wang Zetian about how Wang Jingrui died.

Wang Zetian naturally did not let Li Siqi down and found out that Wang Jingrui was the leader of the rebels.

"Impossible, impossible, how is this possible? Rui'er has always been a good child, how could he rebel?" Wang Zetian murmured to himself.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and said quickly, "Someone, bring those to me."

The gossiping servants were soon brought before Master Wang.

"Master, please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again. I will never dare to do it again." The leading servant immediately started crying.

Seeing this, the others also began to kowtow and plead for mercy.

Master Wang felt a headache and quickly stopped them: "Stop, why did you say Rui was a rebel?!"

As Mr. Wang asked, he forced himself to suppress the anger and panic in his heart. He was worried that what these people said was true.

"My lord, we also heard it, and we don't know whether it's true or not. We heard a caravan passing by the villa discussing it. They came from the capital, and we heard from them that the young master's rebellion failed, and the emperor actually chopped off his head on the spot and hung it on the city wall for public display." The servant swallowed and told everything.

When Mr. Wang heard this, his eyes went dark, he staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, someone behind him helped him up.

"Master, master, what's wrong with you?" someone asked worriedly.

Wang Zetian's straight back also hunched a little, "I'm fine, let's go."

Wang Zetian's voice was low. Originally, Wang Jingrui's death was a big enough blow to him, but compared with now, it was nothing. Wang Jingrui was a rebel, which was a capital crime punishable by the death of nine generations of his clan. But this was also what puzzled him. Wang Jingrui had been dead for some time, but he had not received any news about the rebels. In all this, there must be someone who helped.

After thinking about it, Wang Zetian somehow thought of Xu Yingying.

Wang Zetian seemed to have made up his mind. He packed himself up, changed into his most luxurious clothes, and went to the inn to find Xu Yingying.

The inn had been booked by Li Siqi's people a long time ago. When the innkeeper saw Master Wang coming, he seemed to have expected it and came to Master Wang and said, "Master, you are here. The distinguished guest of the Tianzihao has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come this way."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper personally brought Mr. Wang to the door of the private room.

Wang Zetian took a deep breath and knocked on the door of the box.

"Knock, knock, knock." Three knocks were heard and the door was opened from the inside.

"Master Wang." It was Lian Qiao who opened the door. "Please come in."

Xu Yingying was sitting at the table at this time. Lian Qiao came over with Master Wang, "Madam, someone is here."

Lian Qiao had no intention of hiding Xu Yingying's identity in front of Wang Zetian. Xu Yingying just opened her eyelids and glanced at Lian Qiao without saying much.

"Your Majesty? Are you the Queen?" Wang Zetian caught Lian Qiao's way of addressing Xu Yingying and was horrified.

"Yes, there were some accidents before, so I concealed some things. I hope Mr. Wang will not blame me." Xu Yingying made a gesture to Wang Zetian to sit down and began to explain.

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. I am just a businessman. It is a blessing for me to meet the honorable Queen. I dare not accept the blame." Wang Zetian did not sit down. After saying this, he knelt directly in front of Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying was a little surprised, "What is Master Wang doing? Lian Qiao, why don't you help him up?"

Wang Zetian refused Lian Qiao's help, bowed to Xu Yingying expressionlessly, and said, "I didn't know that Rui'er had done such a rebellious thing before. Your Majesty didn't blame the Wang family. I think it was the Queen who helped to mediate the situation. I bow to thank the Queen for not killing me."

After that, Wang Zetian leaned down again, kowtowed, and then said: "I bow to you to apologize to you. I didn't know your identity before, so I'm sorry for the offense. I hope you can forgive me."

"Master Wang, there is no need to do this. I had an accident before and lost my memory. It was thanks to the help of Young Master Wang that I was able to survive. Although I cannot save Wang Jingrui's life now, I can save the lives of the rest of the Wang family's family members. I will just consider it as repaying Wang Jingrui for saving my life that day." Xu Yingying's mind moved slightly, and she began to explain.

But Wang Zetian stubbornly knelt on the ground. "Now that my son has died, I have no right to blame you. But my son saved you that day, and now my Wang family is even with you. I will remember your kindness today. I have already made clear what I wanted to say to you, so I will not bother you any more. I am leaving now."

After saying that, Wang Zetian stood up straight and walked out without hesitation.
