The legitimate daughter returns, and the princess goes crazy

Tang Wen and his group left Xu's house at the right time. As soon as they left, people came with the imperial edict to confiscate the property.

Heavy troops surrounded Xu's residence like an iron barrel, and not even a fly could fly out. The person leading the group was none other than Liu Liangcai, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council.

As soon as he stepped into the yard, Liu Liangcai couldn't wait to order his men to start searching.

After receiving the order, all the officers and soldiers began to search with all their might, like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey.

Because everyone knows that it is a lucrative job to search the property of an emperor. Although all the property seized must be turned over to the national treasury, no one will check for small amounts of silver and the like. If someone steals one or two coins and uses them to drink some wine, no one will find out.

Therefore, all officers and soldiers searched very carefully, not leaving out even a single room.

Soon, soldiers found You Hua tied up and lying in the corner of the woodshed, and brought her to Liu Liangcai.

After Liu Liangcai saw the appearance of the woman in front of him, he was slightly surprised, and then asked: "Miss You Hua, why are you here?"

Liu Liangcai was not a gentleman at all. He often went to some brothels, so he recognized her.

As he said that, he hurried forward to help the beauty up, and when he let go, he was still reluctant to let go. Not only that, there was a lewd smile on the corner of his mouth. When You Hua saw his face, she wanted to slap him immediately.

But she still suppressed the nausea in her heart, and her bright eyes immediately turned into tears, which made people feel pity. She choked and said:

"Master Liu, I was forcibly imprisoned in the mansion by Xu Yi."

Liu Liangcai was stunned for a moment, thinking of the fight between the two women from the music hall for Xu Yi. He thought that Xu Yi was attracted by You Hua's beauty and used some tricks to force her into his house. He couldn't help but sighed and said righteously, "This Xu Yi is really a hypocritical beast in human clothing."

The voice is so loud, as if slandering others can elevate oneself.

Then he turned around and comforted her, "Miss You Hua, don't worry, I will definitely help you teach this guy a lesson."

The emperor ordered him to search the house and arrest people, which meant that the lives of everyone in the Xu family were in his hands, so if he wanted to torture Xu Yi, it was just a matter of nodding his head.

You Hua shook her head, her eyes evasive, "No, it was me, I discovered his secret..."

Liu Liangcai frowned and immediately asked, "Oh? What's that for? Let's sit here and talk about it slowly."

……

That night, King Xuan, who had been waiting in his palace, finally received the news.

"What did you say? Is this true?"

Mo Wenjing stood up from the main seat in a flash, his face so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

Liu Liangcai, who was kneeling in front of him, could not help but tremble at the anger emanating from his body. He replied firmly: "Your Highness, this is absolutely true. Someone saw it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears. Not only that, I also sent my confidants to investigate in detail. Xu Yi and Zheng Xuyin had already secretly surrendered to the King of Wei.

The King of Wei even privately gifted each of them a mansion outside the capital. Although this was done in secret, and the names on the deeds of the houses were not their own but those of their distant relatives, our Privy Council still found some clues.

Mo Wenjing knew very well that the information from the Privy Council could not be wrong. He just never expected that Mo Xingchen, who seemed so casual and relaxed on the surface, was actually so bold in private that he even reached out to him.

His eyes were full of murderous intent. "This Mo Xingchen, the last time he handed over the account book in the court, I could tell that he had a complicated mind. I didn't expect that he hid it so deeply."

If he had not handed over the account book, I am afraid that I would have ascended to the position of crown prince long ago.

Liu Liangcai asked knowingly: "Tell me, why did His Royal Highness the King of Wei do this?"

Although he had guessed some of it, this matter was of great importance and he must not say it out loud, otherwise it would be a serious crime of suspecting the prince.

Mo Wenjing gritted his teeth and said, "What else could it be for? It must be for the position of crown prince. The son of a merchant woman wants to climb over my head. You are just dreaming!"

"Yes, I thought the King of Wei was just an idle prince, but I didn't expect that he would have such thoughts behind his back. So, Prince, how should we deal with it?"

Mo Wenjing pondered for a while, then looked up and gave a look to his trusted palace maid. The palace maid immediately understood and hurriedly stood up to close all the doors and windows in the hall, fearing that there might be eavesdroppers through the walls.
