After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"what's up?"

"There's news coming from Qingzhou that the third son of the Bai family has suddenly disappeared."

Lu San pulled out a sealed envelope from his sleeve and handed it to the old lady, then continued, "Before the third son of the Bai family disappeared, Qu Zhizhou, the counselor beside Prince Rong, went to the prefectural government that night. The third son's wife and children also followed him back to the capital and lived in a separate courtyard outside the capital."

"Old Bai also died three times?"

The old lady frowned, her expression somewhat heavy.

I had planned everything, but I hadn't taken the third prince into account.

Lu San shook his head, "We can't find him alive, but we can't find his body either."

The old lady frowned and thought, "The third son of the Bai family is the most cunning. Maybe he knew that Prince Rong would send someone to kill him and silence him, so he ran away in advance!"

She looked up at Lu San and told him, "Send a message to Qingzhou and have someone secretly look for the third son of the Bai family."

"Madam, I think the third son of the Bai family might be in the capital." Lu Huaizhen said.

"Go on."

"The most dangerous place is the safest place." Lu Huaizhen expressed his thoughts, "The third son of the Bai family is not a good person. If Prince Rong wants his life, he will definitely not sit and wait for death. Maybe he is in a corner of the capital now, watching Prince Rong's every move, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack."

The old lady thought about it carefully and felt that what he said made sense.

"The third son of the Bai family has achieved what he has today, but it is not entirely due to the support of Prince Rong. He himself is very smart."

She looked at Lu Huaizhen and said, "You and Lao Liu have trained so many secret agents over the years. I'll leave this matter to you."

Lu Huaizhen didn't feel it was troublesome. Instead, he smiled sincerely from the bottom of his heart.

In front of the old lady, he never called himself "this king", and he would bow to her as a junior when he saw her.

The old lady now tells him to do things as if he were her own family members, which means that she accepts him.

"Just tell me what you want to do. I will do anything for you, even if it means fire and water!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the butler came in hurriedly from outside, "Madam, the third prince is here."

The old lady raised her chin towards Lu Huaizhen and said, "Go to the back hall and wait."

Lu Huaizhen went to the back hall, and the third prince came to the Mingtang under the guidance of the doorman.

As soon as he saw the old lady, he bowed and saluted, "Old lady, I came here today to apologize for my crime."

Madam Lu pretended not to know and asked in confusion, "What crime has Your Highness committed?"

She stood up and pretended to be polite to him, "Your Highness is a noble man, I cannot accept your gift."

Lu Lingye stood up and looked at the old lady with a heavy face, "It was Zhuang Wei, who accidentally started a fire and died today."

The old lady looked at the Third Prince, who remained calm and even looked heartbroken, with complicated eyes.

It turns out that no one in the royal family is simple.

I originally thought that this prince was much better than the ruthless prince, but now it seems that they grow from the same root and are no different.

However, this person is better at disguise than the prince.

If I hadn't known the news in advance, I would have been fooled by his appearance.

The old lady sighed, "Zhuang Wei has done many evil things, so it doesn't matter if he dies. As long as there is evidence, the Yong'an Marquis' son can be convicted and brought to justice."

"The people I sent to Qingzhou have not returned yet. Once we get the evidence, I will make sure Jiang Hui handles the case according to the law!"

Qingzhou is only a month away from here, and the certification has been given to him for almost two months.

From what he said, the evidence has probably been handed over to Prince Rong.

After seeing the true face of a man, the old lady remained calm and smiled at him, "The Third Prince is willing to plead for the people, so I am relieved."

"This matter is due to my incompetence. I hope the old lady doesn't blame me."

Lu Lingye recalled the commotion at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion these days, and asked with a worried look on his face, "I heard that your granddaughter fell into the water at the Big Buddha Temple. Has she been found now?"

The old lady didn't know whether he was testing her or pretending to care about Youyou, so she pretended to be sad and said, "I've been looking for her for a month, but I still haven't found her. I'm afraid -"

Her voice was choked with sobs, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves.

"Do you want me to send someone to help find it?"

"Don't bother."

The old lady refused him, "This matter has caused too much noise and attracted too much attention. It is better for the Third Prince to stand aside and watch, so as not to get into trouble."

"Old Madam, you are too kind. I can't help you in public, but I can send some people to help look for it privately."

Lu Lingye's feelings are sincere and deep, the old lady can only say that it is difficult to draw the bones of a tiger while it is skin, and one can know a person's face but not his heart.

"My grandson Xiao Qi has already taken people to search along the river bank, so I won't bother Your Highness."

After several refusals, Lu Lingye left with the excuse that he had something to do.

Lu Huaizhen came out from the small hall at the back, and the old lady glanced at him dimly, "You royal family members are really born actors."

With such superb acting skills, it would be a waste of their talents if they didn't join a southern opera troupe to sing!

Lu Huaizhen heard the sarcasm in his words and touched the tip of his nose guiltily.

He quickly changed the subject, "How are you going to deal with the matter of Qingling Mountain?"

"Since it is an iron ore regulated by the state, it naturally belongs to the state."

The old lady snorted coldly, "But there is no rush to expose this matter now. Some people are too smart for their own good, so I will make them experience what it means to be overjoyed and end up in tragedy!"

After leaving the house, the third prince returned to his mansion and immediately changed into an ordinary set of clothes.

He took Zhao Zhong with him, and the two of them quietly walked out of the city gate and ran straight towards Qingling Mountain.

On the other side, Bai Youyou was tied up and thrown onto the deck.

"Humph, little bitch, weren't you very arrogant that day?"

The person standing in front of Bai Youyou, looking down at him, was none other than Jiang Hui, who was ordered by the emperor to be confined to the palace and not allowed to go out for the rest of his life.

Fearing that the emperor would really want to kill Jiang Hui, Marquis Yong'an pretended to obey the emperor's orders and secretly found a man who looked very similar to Jiang Hui to act as a substitute.

The real Jiang Hui assumed that man's identity and took a cargo ship south to Yucheng.

Yucheng is close to the border, thousands of miles away from the capital, and no one knows him, but he no longer has a prominent status that makes people seek him.

Jiang Hui was already full of anger, and now that he met his enemy, he became even more jealous!

Having just escaped from the tiger's den, she entered into a wolf's lair. Bai Youyou looked up at the sky, feeling that God was playing a trick on her.

At that time, she sank to the bottom of the river, suffocated and fell unconscious, and happened to meet a cargo ship passing by.

The man was saved, but the man who saved him had a stupid son at home. The couple insisted that she marry their stupid son because she saved his life.

They locked her up for a long time, trying to starve her into submission.

In order to save her life, Bai Youyou had to pretend to agree. When she saw a boat passing by, she jumped off the boat without hesitation.

But I didn’t expect that this was also a pirate ship!

The river water in May was so cold that it chilled people's hearts. Bai Youyou was speechless! !
