I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

As soon as Minister He finished speaking, Zhao Simin immediately grabbed Cui Shuyan's wrist and asked vigilantly, "Father, what do you want to see Doctor Cui about?"

"Don't worry, I won't hurt her."

Zhao Simin was skeptical.

Cui Shuyan smiled at Zhao Simin: "Don't worry, it's okay."

Minister He is not so cruel as to kill her here.

It is true that I want to vent my dissatisfaction.

But that doesn't matter.

It just so happened that she also had something to say and wanted to talk to Minister He alone.

After everyone left, Minister He snorted coldly and said, "You seem to be standing aside from today's incident, but you are the undisputed leader."

"Does the Minister think that it is best if this matter is not investigated? Or does the Minister want to destroy the grandson that he has worked so hard to get?"

Hearing this, Minister He glared at Cui Shuyan and said, "Girl, your words are too venomous!"

"I'm just telling the truth. It may sound a little harsh. But honest advice is always unpleasant to the ear. What do you think?"

"You are so enthusiastic in helping our He family, but which prince are you working for?" As he spoke, Minister He showed contempt.

"Not for any prince, but for myself. You may not believe it, but I am also being targeted by Concubine Xian. Have you heard of the new number one scholar Luo Jinyu?"

"Of course I have heard of him. However, I heard that he encountered bandits on his way back to Beijing and his whereabouts are currently unknown."

"Yes." Cui Shuyan's eyes turned red as she spoke, "Now that I know who my enemy is, how can I not take revenge?"

"Just you?" Minister He was a little surprised.

"Yes, I can do it." Cui Shuyan said slowly with tears in her eyes, "I think the Minister knows that I was married into the Xie family. Concubine Xian and Mrs. Xie from the main branch of the Xie family were secretly connected and had plotted against me. I followed this clue and found out that the He family had no children. After that, many things happened recently."

Minister He frowned deeply: "Why would Concubine Xian target our He family?"

Cui Shuyan looked directly at Minister He and said, "Mr. Minister, you are asking questions that you already know the answer to. You hold an important position. If there was no breakthrough from you, Concubine Xian would not have let your He family fall into the haze of childlessness for so many years."

When doing things, it’s the results that count.

If Concubine Xian thought that Minister He could be bribed, she would definitely not target the He family.

She couldn't bear to throw away such a popular item.

Since she targeted the He family, it meant that she was sure that the He family could not be used by her.

"Doctor Cui, you are indeed smart. It is true that Concubine Xian once asked her brother, Duke Dingguo, to win me over. I have always been upright, so I naturally refused to go along with them. I refused too many times and was too harsh, so that they could not see any hope. I guess this is the crux of the matter."

Cui Shuyan agreed deeply with this.

At this time, Minister He suddenly asked: "According to your current plan, you want to break the haze of my He family being childless, but after thinking about it, I can't figure out what benefit this will bring to you."

"If it's bad for Concubine Xian, it's good for me. When our statuses are not equal, it's impossible to hit the target in one go. I can only plan slowly."

Minister He shook his head: "Only by yourself, your chances of winning are too low."

Cui Shuyan smiled faintly. Minister He, this old fox, was apparently saying that her chances of winning were low, but in fact, he wanted to know what other cards she had.

After all, if it was just her, he probably thought she wouldn't dare to go against Concubine Xian.

Cui Shuyan played along: "What if Prince Xie is included?"

This time, Minister He was really shocked: "You can actually persuade Prince Xie?"

"Because in Concubine Xian's calculations, Prince Xie and I are both victims. Since we are victims, we naturally share the same hatred and enemies. Moreover, while Concubine Xian was calculating your He family, she also made Prince Xie bear the reputation of being unlucky in marriage, so that he has not married until now. How could a noble and proud Prince Xie be willing to suffer such a big loss in vain?"

Minister He nodded, showing appreciation: "He is indeed not a character who will suffer a loss."

Originally, he and Xie Xingyuan admired each other and were friends regardless of age.

If it weren't for Xie Xingyuan's unlucky marriage, which caused the He family to fall into the shadow of childlessness, the two of them wouldn't have gone from being close friends who could talk about anything to becoming strangers.

"Doctor Cui, I have an unwelcome request."

"Just keep talking, Lord Shangshu."

"Can you please stay at my He's house temporarily and keep these two babies of my He's family?"

Cui Shuyan asked knowingly, "Then Minister He, you have to think about it carefully. I am afraid that Concubine Xian is also watching me now. If she knew that I moved into your He family, I am afraid she would deal with you as well."

"My He family doesn't seek trouble, but we will never be afraid of it when we encounter it. Besides, my He family has long been a thorn in the side of Concubine Xian, so we are not afraid of this time. Moreover, with your intelligence, I'm afraid you knew my position when I dealt with my daughter, right?"

"I had some guesses at the time, but I wasn't sure."

Minister He nodded and said sternly, "Doctor Cui, from today on, you will be the guest of honor of my He Mansion. All the servants in my He Mansion are at your disposal, and you will be given the power of life and death. At the same time, you can use all the resources of my He family. My only request is that you keep these two babies of my He family."

These words are both a courtesy and a responsibility.

Cui Shuyan nodded and accepted the task.

Although this task is difficult, it is a way to prove her ability.

Helping the He family get out of the shadow of childlessness is her first step in counterattacking Concubine Xian.

After that, there will naturally be a second step, a third step...

Don't worry, just take it slow and you will get everything she wants.

Ze'er is already being raised in Prince Xie's mansion, so she has no worries and can give it a try.

Soon, the housekeeper of the He Mansion arranged a courtyard for Cui Shuyan.

The yard is very large and the scenery inside is extremely beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

Cui Shuyan stayed there that day.

Not long after, Shi Liu arrived and said that he had already spread the word that he was looking for someone with great skills, and that someone would probably respond soon.

Cui Shuyan nodded and said, "Shi Liu, go to Prince Xie's mansion and ask the prince to help you check what industries the Duke Dingguo's mansion has."

"Yes."

Even if you have a position, you still need money to do things.

In the deep palace, all Concubine Xian could rely on was the emperor's reward. She did not have a lot of money and could only rely on her mother's family, the Duke Dingguo Mansion.

And for Concubine Xian to be able to mobilize so many people to work for her privately, it would not be possible without money.

As the saying goes, hit the snake at its most vulnerable part, she wanted to cut off Concubine Xian's financial resources first.

Not long after, Shi Liu came back with some information.

What is densely recorded above is the assets of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

Cui Shuyan was surprised: "So fast?"

"The prince seemed to have anticipated that you would check this. When I went there, he had already asked Mr. Wen to sort these out."

"Yeah." Cui Shuyan responded, feeling inexplicably caring in her heart.

Just when she was about to take a closer look at the information, Shi Liu said again: "By the way, the prince asked me to tell you that Xie Jing is dead."
