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

Chu Ci's heart sank. This was the bad thing about the ancient times. One had to avoid other people when having a relationship.

Chu Ci kept complaining in his heart, but on the surface he pulled Doctor Hua's sleeve and shook it pitifully.

Doctor Hua had no choice but to unblock Chu Ci's mute point.

Emma, ​​I almost became mute. After the acupuncture points were released, Chu Ci quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's just that my husband is too charming."

This was not an apology, it was clearly a display of affection. The fifth prince could no longer bear it and reached out to push the door open.

Then Chu Ci screamed, "Oh, what happened to the little baby girl that Xiao Cui's maid brought over this morning? I hope she has starved to death after such a long time!"

The fifth prince was truly speechless. Other women were gentle, careful, virtuous, and considerate in everything.

Chuci, on the other hand, is greedy, lustful, stingy, always acting on his whim, and always forgetting things. I really don't know what Fan Jingrui likes about Chuci.

Is it because of your current status that you have accepted your fate?

Chu Ci had no idea that his image in the eyes of the Fifth Prince was so terrible. After he finished speaking, he put on his shoes and ran out without waiting for everyone's response.

Halfway through the run, he realized that he still didn't know where the baby girl was, so he had to turn back.

“Madam, you are so-fast!” In fact, not only Fan Jingrui, but also the head of the Chu family, Chu Chengyun, the fifth prince and the purple-robed envoy were all stunned.

The Purple-robed Envoy was particularly shocked: "Can a small poisonous insect have such a big impact on people?"

After being reminded so bluntly by everyone present, Chu Ci finally realized that something was wrong with her. But this was a good thing, not a bad thing, so she simply put the matter behind her.

Chu Ci is now more worried about the baby girl, "What about the child?"

Fan Jingrui knew that Chu Ci was really anxious, and quickly explained: "Don't worry, my wife, your husband has already hired a wet nurse, and the child is fine."

As expected, Chu Ci relaxed completely. "Did the maid Xiao Cui confess? Why did she steal the child?"

Fan Jingrui shook his head. Just when Chu Ci felt discouraged and thought that if there was really no other way, she would adopt this poor little baby girl, the fifth prince spoke.

"Although the maid Xiao Cui did not confess, Yang Dashuan's niece-in-law Shen went to report to the authorities."

Chu Ci said: "Then it's settled, isn't it? Return the child to the owner, it will be good for you, for me, and for everyone else!"

The baby was a boy. And they did a blood test to prove their relationship. The boy's blood was mixed with Shen's."

Chu Ci turned and looked at Fan Jingrui.

Fan Jingrui said, "But Shen's husband and parents-in-law insisted that Shen had made a mistake and said that Shen gave birth to a boy. They also conducted a blood test, and the results showed that the boy's blood and Shen's blood were indeed compatible."

Anyone who has read a certain biography knows that whether the blood is compatible can be manipulated.

Chu Ci said: "Who told you that if you blend your blood, you will definitely be your biological child? Do you believe it or not, I can make all of your blood blend together?"

Obviously, no one present, including Doctor Hua, believed it.

Chu Ci suggested: "How about we do an experiment?"

"What do you need? I'll prepare it." Doctor Hua was eager to try, while the others looked solemn. If blood tests could not distinguish true from false, then who knows how many unjust, false and wrong cases there would be throughout history.

Especially when they saw Chu Ci making their blood mix and not mix like magic, and even making chicken blood and duck blood mix, everyone present finally couldn't sit still anymore.

"What the hell is going on?"

Chu Ci had expected this to happen, and he picked out the important things to explain to everyone present, such as the principle of how blood can mix in water, and the general classification of human blood.

But how could the Fifth Prince, who had been deeply influenced by the idea of ​​precious blood since childhood, believe it so easily? "So the blood of all of us is mostly the same, and there is no difference between noble and humble. Is this what you mean?"

Chu Ci nodded. "Although it's not exactly accurate, it's pretty close."

"What do you have to prove it?" The fifth prince was unwilling to give in and kept asking.

Chu Ci was a little impatient. "If I were to explain it in detail, it would take three days and three nights. What I said is just common sense. Or did you forget that this topic was only mentioned in passing? Shouldn't you think about why the Yang family exchanged Shen's child?"

Before the Fifth Prince answered, Chu Ci continued to ask, "What about Shen, did she believe it when others said the baby boy was real?"

"That's not true. Shen went back to her parents' home. And Shen's father is Uncle Shen's cousin, Shen Zhengqing." This time it was Fan Jingrui who answered Chu Ci.

In an instant, Chu Ci felt that this world was really small. He had just saved a baby girl out of love, and she turned out to be related to him.

Fan Jingrui did not deliberately keep people in suspense this time, and continued: "And I sent a letter to my uncle yesterday."

Sure enough, Chu Ci gave Fan Jingrui a thumbs up after hearing this. "My husband is really smart."

The three old men, Patriarch Chu, Chu Chengyun and Doctor Hua, felt that although they had not eaten, they were already full.

The fifth prince was more straightforward: "Now that we know that the baby girl is safe for the time being, should we talk about business?"

Chu Ci rolled his eyes when he heard this, "In the eyes of your Highness the Fifth Prince, what kind of things can be considered serious matters?"

The fifth prince could not stand Chu Ci's unreasonable behavior, but he had to compromise. "My father's order is to appoint Chu Chengji and Chu Chengyun as fifth-rank agricultural promotion envoys, specifically responsible for the promotion of potatoes."

"Okay." Chu Ci agreed readily, but just when the Fifth Prince breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Ci's subsequent request came like a storm: "But I have one condition. My grandfather and great grandfather need a guard team. We can recruit the personnel ourselves. But when it comes to the cost, the emperor should not be stingy, right?"

A mere fifth-rank agricultural promotion official actually needs a guard? The fifth prince almost gnashed his teeth and said, "I need to discuss this matter with my father."

Negotiate? There's a good chance they won't agree, and that's not an option.

Chu Ci then added fuel to the fire: "My great grandfather and grandfather are old. Without the protection of guards, none of us can rest in peace."

"If something like what happened in Lianzhou happens again, and if it is not handled in time, will potatoes still be promoted?"

Now it was the fifth prince's turn to get angry. "This prince will do his best to fight for the two old gentlemen."

Is this good enough? Chu Ci was happy and was not stingy in giving the fifth prince some more benefits.

"Doesn't the Fifth Prince like the charcoal pencils I made? I made some improvements when I was free. I'll ask Jingrui to send some to the Fifth Prince later."

At the same time, Chu Ci did not forget the Purple Envoy beside him: "There are also Purple Envoys, who are always busy handling cases. With them, it will be more convenient to record something."
