Surprise! I emptied the emperor's private treasury before exile

The fifth prince quickly changed into a cotton gown and thanked her again: "Thank you, old lady."

While the Fifth Prince was still being polite with Old Madam Fan, Qian Chuanzi was extremely anxious.

The probability of accidents happening to the team has been too high recently, and he doesn't want to get into danger again because of sleeping in the wild.

The key point is that it doesn’t matter if something happens to them. If something happens to the Fifth Prince who was rescued with great difficulty, their deaths will be too unjust.

But he didn't have the courage to urge the Fifth Prince. He was just groaning there, and those who didn't know him would think he was constipated. It was really an eyesore.

The Fifth Prince was used to being high and mighty, so how could he care about the feelings of a small official?

Chu Ci was really worried that Qian Chuanzi would do something bad: "Husband, are we going to wait here forever? What if a wild wolf attacks at night? I'm afraid that the old, weak and sick like us will..."

Chu Ci's unfinished meaning was very clear, and the Fifth Prince's face froze when he heard it.

Accustomed to having someone around him to arrange things properly, the Fifth Prince finally realized the bad situation belatedly. He coughed and said, "From now on, you can call me cousin!"

Are they going to rely on them? Chu Ci was a little confused, poked Fan Jingrui's arm, and asked, "What's going on? The fifth prince wants to go south with us?"

Chu Ci's voice was very low, but the Fifth Prince's skill was not weak, and he still heard Chu Ci's words of obvious dissatisfaction. For the sake of the Fan family's face, he rarely explained: "It should only be temporary."

Well, at least he didn't take it for granted. The Fifth Prince's character was passable. "I'll go inform the officials and try to get to the post station before dark."

When she heard the news, she was so upset that her face looked uglier than crying. Chu Ci said that she didn't see it, and if she didn't see it, it had nothing to do with her.

However, is this possible? Everyone in the Fan family has long been accustomed to reporting everything they do.

Especially when I arrived at the post station and saw Chu Ci making everyone except Mr. Fan and Mrs. Fan run around in circles, how can I put it? That feeling was incredible.

I felt embarrassed to disturb Mr. Fan, so I quietly walked to Fan Jingrui's side. "Is the Fan family really pampering their daughter-in-law like this?"

When Fan Jingrui heard this, his body stiffened slightly, but he finally felt the need to explain: "Have you ever heard that some people are born unsuitable for cooking?"

The Fifth Prince shook his head, and the meaning was very clear, just two words - I don't believe it. Fan Jingrui was depressed and was about to stay away from the Fifth Prince. It happened that An Qi came back at this time. "Fifth Prince, this is the reply from the capital."

"Bring it here."

Seeing the Fifth Prince so anxious, Fan Jingrui hurriedly stood up and wanted to say goodbye and leave. But he was stopped by An Qi, "Master Fan, here is another letter of exoneration from the Fan family."

At this time, the fifth prince had already opened the letter, and what caught his eyes was a dozen silver notes. It was estimated to be at least three thousand taels. But the fifth prince didn't care about the money, he focused all his attention on the letter. However, the content of the letter was...

"Father wants me to stay in the Fan family?"

The fifth prince couldn't believe it. Was his father going to exile him as well? The fifth prince was so obsessed that he wanted to fly back to the capital immediately to question his father in person.

Fortunately, An Qi had already prepared, and quickly reminded: "Fifth Prince, there is also a letter from the Queen."

The Fifth Prince then put away his aura and read the book at a glance. The Fifth Prince then realized that Fan Jingrui's wife, Chu, not only found an iron mine on her own, but also assisted the Purple Envoy in destroying two Tatar strongholds that had been lurking in the Great Zhou for many years.

And the emperor actually ordered that if he had similar achievements in the future, he should take all the credit for himself?

He, the Fifth Prince, actually wanted to take credit for a woman's work. The Fifth Prince thought this was really despicable.

The Fifth Prince glanced at Fan Jingrui quietly. He wanted to say something, but after receiving the signal from An Qi, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Fan Jingrui seemed unaware and put away the exoneration document in his hand. He bowed and said, "Please keep it secret."

The Fifth Prince was already feeling guilty, so naturally he had no choice but to agree. As a secret guard, An Qi should have nothing to do with this matter, but the bad thing was that he would take Chu Ling'er away tonight.

Given the intensity with which Mother Chu protects Chu Ling'er, it is very likely that she will put the blame on Chu Ci.

Recalling the past, An Qi couldn't help but feel that the emperor was too despicable. For a moment, the atmosphere was a little depressing. Chu Ci walked over and saw the three of them standing opposite each other in silence. "Is this, my cousin is leaving?"

The Fifth Prince and Fan Jingrui didn't know how to start, but An Qi stood up and said, "Madam, this is not about my cousin. It was the Purple Envoy who pried the Miaojiang man open his mouth."

"Oh? Then what is his identity?" Chu Ci was eager to know whether it was related to Chu Ling'er after hearing this. He didn't care about the strangeness of the Fifth Prince and Fan Jingrui, and hurriedly asked.

An Qi's move was originally intended to arouse Chu Ci's interest, so he naturally did not hide anything: "He is Chu Ling'er's biological father. According to him, he switched you with Chu Ling'er in order to get half of the treasure map in the Chu family's ancestral hall."

An Qi's original intention was to find the treasure map, but when he heard that the other party was Chu Ling'er's biological father, he immediately turned to the Gu worm, "So Chu Ling'er's abnormality is because there is a Gu planted in her body?"

An Qi's original intention was to find the treasure map, but when Chu Ci heard that the other party was Chu Ling'er's biological father, his thoughts immediately turned to the Gu worm, "So Chu Ling'er's abnormality is because she has a Gu planted in her body?"

"What about me? I used to feel pain in my heart whenever I got close to Chu Ling'er. Could it be that I have also been poisoned?"

Seeing Chu Ci so excited, An Qi was stunned. Did he miss some important information? "Young Madam, is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true. Do I have to lie to you? I feel uncomfortable whenever I think that there is a bug in my body that may break out at any time." As he said this, he pinched himself hard, and Chu Ci's eyes were instantly filled with tears.

Chu Ci thought his little action was very secretive, but in fact the three of them saw it clearly.

The Fifth Prince: I’m used to seeing all kinds of attacks from women in the palace, but this is the first time I’ve seen something so blatant.

An Qi: He doesn’t need to feel sorry for her. Madam Fan is not someone who will suffer any loss.

Only Fan Jingrui placed Chu Ci's hand in his palm with heartache and gently stroked it. "My lady, just tell me what you want. The emperor is a wise ruler, and your achievements are not in vain."

Chu Ci turned around, looking at her cheap husband with sparkling eyes. Hasn't he always been fair and selfless before? How come he suddenly figured it out? "Is it really okay?"
