Transmigrated into the daughter of the prime minister, and thrived in space

Don't persuade others to be kind to others without suffering.

There is a bitter account in everyone's heart. How can we settle it and how can we settle it?

Father, I will definitely take back what you left behind.

Not a drop!

"Let's go!" Yaoyi's voice was cold, but his anger seemed to explode.

Yao Churong left, and Yao Yi continued to flip through the book, but he couldn't read it at all, so he threw it hard and said, "Go ask Zhou Zhili!"

He stared at the continuous rain for a long time without moving.

The rain is pouring down, and the sadness is overwhelming.

Through the transparent glass, a drop of rain falls into the corner of the ink-splashed eyes.

It was not until an hour later when Zhou Zhili arrived that the raindrops turned into a faint smile, "President Zhou, please sit down! Try this Baihao Silver Needle."

Zhou Zhili leaned forward and sat down, took the teacup, slowly skimmed off the foam on the tea lid, and took a sip, "Brother Yao, is there something urgent you need from me?"

Yaoyi gave the butler a look without leaving a trace, and the butler immediately stuffed the prepared banknote into Zhou Zhili's hand.

Zhou Zhili pretended to be casual, glanced at the amount - two hundred thousand taels, and curled his lips, "No merit, no reward. I'm afraid you are not worthy of it... Prince Su is asking us to pay back the money we have embezzled in the past. This... is just for fun."

Yao Yi's eyes flashed with an inexplicable look, "It's a good opportunity to hand it over, so that Lord Zhou can maintain his loyalty to the imperial envoy, right?"

"The brain is important... Brother Yao, it's easy to do favors that go with the flow, but it's impossible to force others to do something difficult right now." Zhou Zhili flicked the banknotes twice.

Yao Yi smiled slightly, "Don't be nervous, it's just a piece of news. Simple!"

"Oh?" Zhou Zhili confidently put the banknote into his arms, "What's the news? This is expensive?"

Yao Yi took a sip of tea and asked, "Yu Xiaoqiao, the boss behind Zirongtang, is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Yu Wenrui?"

"That's it? Yu Xiaoqiao is indeed Yu Wenrui's eldest daughter, there is no doubt about it." Zhou Zhili frowned, and an imperceptible cruelty flashed in his eyes.

Even if it turns to ashes, it’s still correct!

Yaoyi crossed his hands and clapped them together gently, "I heard that she has a close relationship with Prince Su Li Lingyan?"

"Well, it looks like he is extraordinary!" Zhou Zhili looked at him deeply.

Maybe, there is an affair?

Humph! It's not a good thing.

"She didn't come with Prince Su on his incognito visit this time? But, it is true that no one from the princess's residence was seen? There were no female relatives at the Lingxi Inn where they stayed," Yao Yi asked calmly.

Zhou Zhili's eyes turned to Yao Yi and asked curiously, "Brother, are you friends with Yu Xiaoqiao?"

Yao Yi gave him a cold look, and Zhou Zhili immediately withdrew his question, smiled awkwardly, and answered honestly: "We did come together, but because we were dressed as men, outsiders couldn't tell. It was me... who had been in the capital and had dealt with us before, otherwise... if it were someone else, I would definitely not be able to get back to you."

Yaoyi's fingers gently stroked the bridge of his nose, landed on his left arm, and patted it lightly, "I said, for this matter, find Brother Zhou, it will be done!"

Zhou Zhili made a few polite remarks, and Yaoyi personally escorted him out of the house and returned to the balcony.

Looking at the heavy rain, my vision is blurred, not knowing whether it is because of the pouring rain or the rolling memories.

The rain was pouring down, as if it was going to dump out all the water in the sky and flood the world.

The huge Jiangning Prefecture is now just a solitary boat.

I wonder how many people on the boat are worried and anxious on this rainy night, how many are struggling and tossing, and how many cannot see tomorrow...

The heavy rain poured down into the Jiangning Prefecture prison.

Si Wenming raised his head and looked through the tiny square window at the dark night sky outside the house, where lightning flashed from time to time. He was thinking about Yu Xiaoqiao in his heart and was always concerned about her.

After a while, his thoughts returned to Li Lingyan's interrogation of Yue Qingyun.

Yue Qingyun was held in solitary confinement in a specially designed high-level cell and was not tortured. Li Lingyan gave him the respect of a third-rank official and the courtesy of a doctor who would not be tortured.

Yue Qingyun didn't cry or make a fuss, didn't make a noise or shout, and just ate and drank as usual, looking quite decent.

"Li Maocheng has confessed that the six million taels of relief silver were all embezzled by Lord Yue, and he was responsible for all the smelting matters. Is this true?" Li Lingyan asked in a gentle voice, sitting on the chair.

Yue Qingyun's face was gloomy, and only his eyebrows trembled slightly, "Humph! I knew earlier that the bandit was a wolf cub that could never be tamed. Back then, I shouldn't have been deceived by his false sense of loyalty. I was soft-hearted and let him live. After keeping him by my side for many years, he is still a frozen snake..."

Yue Qingyun gritted his teeth as he spoke, veins bulging on his neck.

A hint of ridicule floated to the corner of Li Lingyan's lips, "Humph, Lord Yue really wronged Master Li. In order to repay your kindness, he was tortured and did not confess a word. He would never believe that you sent people to capture his wife to threaten him, and he was willing to abandon his childhood sweetheart for you... His unyielding character and sincere feelings moved me. If you hadn't sent people to silence him... I think no one except you could pry open his tongue."

Yue Qingyun's heart felt like it was being bitten by millions of ants, the pain was excruciating, but not a drop of blood was seen.

His indignant face was instantly covered with frost.

Only if you believe, you can see. Only if you believe in success, you can triumph. Only if you believe in loyalty, you can gain loyalty.

As an official or a general, it is important to control people, but it is more important to see through their hearts.

However, in life, the biggest enemy is oneself.

Nothing can defeat the fear hidden in the heart when facing life and death. How can the blade of life and death be held in the hands of others? Life and death are determined by oneself.

I am not wrong! I am not at fault!

Yue Qingyun finally found a justifiable reason.

The layer of frost that had just gathered gradually shattered and faded away as I came to terms with my guilt-free self.

"It's too late to say more. The silver has been melted down. What evidence does Prince Su have to say that I embezzled the relief money? Just based on Li Maocheng's one-sided statement, it's impossible to convict a third-rank official of embezzlement, right?"

Li Lingyan's mouth curled up into a disdainful sneer, "A single word from one family cannot convict a provincial governor of such a serious crime, but... Yao Dongdong from Yao's Linglong Shop, Qian Saner from Jiangdu County's Ancui Shop, Liu Weiye from Jiangning Qiongzhen Shop, and your good student Gu Yuanzhang... aren't they all witnesses?"

Yue Qingyun's throat was dry, as if it was blocked by a ball of cotton. Li Lingyan's mouth opened and closed like an invisible sword, piercing deep into his heart. "Physical evidence, is there any physical evidence?"

"Six million taels of melted silver cannot be used as physical evidence?" Li Lingyan said coldly.

Yue Qingyun cleared his throat, "Those cannot prove that the embezzled money was relief money. Even if it was obtained through embezzlement, the source is different, and the guilt is also different! Moreover, my ancestors had some assets, so those cannot be my inheritance?"

It's true, you won't cry until you see the coffin, and you won't give up until you reach the Yellow River!

Li Lingyan snorted coldly, "Okay, this imperial envoy will let you carry the coffin across the Yellow River!" As he said that, he took out a bronze mirror from his arms.

Looking at his own secret room and the silver melting process, Yue Qingyun's eyes almost popped out of his sockets, and he stammered, "What... is this? A monster... you are monsters!"

"Your ancestors had a small fortune... Are you scared? Seeing a coffin is like seeing the Yellow River... Don't fight like a trapped beast, it's meaningless."

Yue Qingyun's heart softened and he collapsed to the ground.

Just this one item alone is a death sentence!
