I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

Minister Yuan was so anxious that he sent people on horseback to intercept them.

Who would dare to use the cotton clothes in the warehouse without his approval?

When he received a reply, the general said that Qin Chi had contacted him in advance, and there was an official document and the official seal of the government, confirming that these cotton clothes were sent to the Northwest Military Camp.

This made Minister Yuan so angry that he was fuming!

If you want to take something from him, who wouldn't try to please him first and ask him repeatedly before he agrees?

From then on, Yuan Shangshu was convinced that Qin could defeat him.

This was not done in a covert manner.

Soon other people found out about it. When they learned that Qin Chi had gone to provide disaster relief and had tricked Minister Yuan, they were all delighted and told it to their younger generations as a joke.

Then, which family doesn’t have a few prodigal sons?

So it spread in a small circle among the children of the powerful and wealthy.

Being able to humiliate a powerful minister like Yuan Shangshu, Qin Chi's image suddenly changed in their eyes. The Qin Chi who was rumored to be powerful before was also very powerful.

But people feel that he still cannot defeat Minister Yuan.

But in fact?

Minister Yuan didn't get any good treatment from Qin Chi either.

So what if he took the credit?

He, Qin Chi, has become famous.

Unfortunately, this time, Minister Yuan suffered a loss, and he couldn't talk about it openly. He had to pretend to smile when he saw people and couldn't say a bad word about Qin Chi.

Minister Yuan doesn't seem to be anything special on the surface.

Behind the scenes, two groups of people were arranged to assassinate Qin Chi.

There are many spies in the capital, so if Minister Yuan wants to kill someone, it is not so easy to clean up the mess. But it is different outside. After killing the target, the murderer can just flee far away.

As long as people don't return to the capital, who can catch the Yuan family?

Therefore, Qin Chi encountered two assassination attempts while he was on the way.

Qin Chi was naturally not a man who would swallow his anger, so he immediately wrote a secret memorial to Emperor Ming Cheng, suspecting that there were spies from other countries who wanted to murder the court officials of Daxia. For example, he, a disaster relief official, had encountered two assassination attempts just after he stepped out of the capital. He said that the spies behind the scenes were cruel and vicious, and the people of Taihu Lake were waiting for life-saving supplies, and they were worthy of death, as they wanted to disrupt the peace of Daxia.

The level it has risen to is very high. I hope Emperor Ming Cheng will conduct a thorough investigation.

Emperor Ming Cheng was furious when he saw the secret report.

He immediately ordered the Jinyiwei to investigate and sent another Jinyiwei to protect Qin Chi.

"Bastard thing!"

Emperor Ming Cheng was really angry this time. "I personally conferred the title of the top scholar of the Three Yuans and Six Top Scholars this year, and yet someone dared to attack him? This shows that they don't take me seriously."

The newly crowned top scholar was assassinated in less than a year.

How will history books write about him in the future? !

"Your Majesty, please calm down and don't get yourself in trouble." The old eunuch next to him comforted.

Emperor Mingcheng laughed angrily, "How can I calm down? Go and summon the Minister of Works to see me."

A young eunuch immediately received the order and went out.

After a while, Minister Yuan hurried to see the emperor.

Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty threw the secret report in the face of Minister Yuan.

According to Minister Yuan's understanding of Emperor Mingcheng over the years, Emperor Mingcheng was in a rage and such an emperor could kill at any time. Minister Yuan was so shocked that he fell to his knees.

Then he tremblingly opened the secret music.

When he saw the content above, he almost vomited three liters of blood.

Qin Qi'an is really my nemesis!

"It was someone you sent, right?" Emperor Ming Cheng did not need any evidence and made the conclusion directly.

Minister Yuan broke out in a cold sweat.

It is no exaggeration to say that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was stubborn and self-righteous.

You have no choice but to acknowledge the truth he has determined.

So Yuan Shangshu compromised and explained: "Your Majesty, I just wanted to scare him so that he would respect me in the future. I never thought of killing him."

"Oh, do you think I'm so easy to fool?" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty pointed at Minister Yuan in anger.

Yuan Shangshu kowtowed repeatedly, "It's true, how dare I fool you. Think about it, according to my ability, if I really want to kill Qin Qian'an, how could I let him escape twice."

Emperor Mingcheng sneered, "You failed to kill me, but it became a reason for you to escape punishment."

There is a huge disparity in strength between the two.

If the killing failed, it could really be an excuse.

Emperor Mingcheng brushed his robe and sat down majestically, "I don't care whether you really want to kill him or just want to scare him, as long as I am in power, he must be alive for me."

"Yes, I was wrong. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"roll!"

Emperor Mingcheng picked up the inkstone and threw it at Minister Yuan.

Minister Yuan crawled out of the imperial study, and he was still frightened even after leaving the palace.

"Qin Qi'an..."

Minister Yuan gritted his teeth.

He was setting Qin Chi up with another trick.

At the same time, he knew that Emperor Mingcheng would protect Qin Chi, but he didn't expect that he would protect him so unreasonably. He would think of him when Qin Chi got into trouble, and there was no need to investigate, just wait until he returned to the Yuan family.

As soon as Minister Yuan stepped into his own courtyard, he spat out a mouthful of blood, "This is too much! This is simply too much!!"

"master!"

The servants who saw this hurriedly stepped forward to support Minister Yuan.

Then there was chaos in the courtyard.

Wait for the court physician to come and take Minister Yuan's pulse.

Minister Yuan waved his hand to let him leave, and the palace doctor went outside to prescribe medicine. After a while, the staff living in the mansion came to visit.

After dismissing his attendants, Yuan Shangshu mentioned the matter to his staff, "Your Majesty has now determined that I am the mastermind behind this."

“That doesn’t make sense.”

The staff was also furious after hearing this.

Minister Yuan sneered, "When has our emperor ever been reasonable with anyone? He was better at pretending in the first half of his life, but now he doesn't bother pretending for anyone."

Even if they really did it.

But without evidence, who can do anything to him?

The staff member was puzzled and asked, "Why is your majesty protecting Qin Qi'an?"

"He is not protecting Qin Qian'an, he is protecting his own face. Also, I am too anxious." Minister Yuan thought that Qin Qian'an was a new official this year and had only been in office for a few months.

If he were to die in an assassination attempt now, it would bring shame to the royal family.

Minister Yuan could only order his men to withdraw the assassins.

"Sir, are we just going to let this matter go?" The staff member sensed Minister Yuan's reluctance.

Minister Yuan shook his head. "What do you think, sir?"

"If it doesn't work openly, we can do it secretly, just like birth, aging, sickness and death." The staff knew that if someone wanted to die, it didn't have to be an assassination, they could disguise it as an accidental death or death from illness.

The two looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding.

What's going on over there with Qin Chi is a turbulent situation.

Song Jin lives a peaceful and quiet life at home.

However, Old Man Hong came to talk to Song Jin and said that Qin Chi had encountered some troubles, which had alarmed the emperor, but it was a close call, so Song Jin could rest assured and take care of her pregnancy.

Two months passed.

The winter wind was chilly, but fortunately there wasn't much snow.

Shopkeeper Tao unexpectedly came to discuss with Song Jin that Taihu Lake needed a batch of grain and asked if Song Jin had any grain. "Young Master said he would buy it, but the price would not be high, and it would be calculated based on the price before the disaster. The disaster in Taihu Lake is far more serious than we know, and hundreds of thousands of people are in urgent need of grain to survive until next spring."

Song Jin naturally has food.

Song Jin even built several granaries privately.

Song Jin immediately wrote a letter and stamped it with the family seal, allowing Qin Chi to use it to go to the granary closest to Taihu Lake to withdraw grain.

Shopkeeper Tao was so grateful that his eyes were filled with tears. He bowed deeply to Song Jin and said, "I would like to thank the lady for her kindness on behalf of the young master."

"No need to be so polite. Helping my husband is also helping myself."

Song Jin avoided the gift from Shopkeeper Tao.

After getting the grain withdrawal certificate, Manager Tao did not linger any longer and hurriedly delivered the certificate to the disaster area in Taihu Lake.

It can be seen from the fact that Shopkeeper Tao has lost weight that the Taihu disaster relief is not going as smoothly as expected.

Otherwise, there is no need to come to her specially.
