The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 12 Account Books

"Oh? The general actually cares about these things? I am flattered."

After hearing what Gu Junqing said, Ji Rang's smile became even more intense.

Gu Junqing didn't know what to say and just smiled faintly.

After all, in his previous life, Ji Xiang married Miss Shui as his concubine, but things are different now.

"Ji Xiang came here uninvited, but what do you want to see me about?"

She really couldn't imagine that Ji Zuoxiang was usually busy with court affairs, and now was not his day off, unlike her. Except that she usually had some achievements on the battlefield, as for other things, although she could do it, the emperor didn't have anything to entrust to her.

In addition to observing the movements of the aristocratic families, I don't know why some of the aristocratic families have been secretly trying to do something big recently. Now they are all very honest, and it seems like a storm is about to come.

Since there was no movement, she had no way to find anything, so she could only secretly find some clues that could lead to the official's demotion. Now that she was in the restaurant, she might be able to hear some rumors, which could provide her with some ideas. Other than that, she had a rare moment of leisure.

But Ji Rang is different from himself after all.

Ji Rang ignored him and sat down opposite Gu Junqing without any hesitation.

Just then the waiter came up with a pot of peach blossom wine. He was also surprised to see Ji Rang, after all, he recognized him.

But he didn't dare to say much. He just put the wine jug on the table, filled two glasses with wine, and left quickly.

Ji Rang picked up the wine and made small talk: "The peach blossom wine in the Tianzi Restaurant is the best in the capital. General Gu just returned to the capital a few days ago. I guess he hasn't had it for a long time. Come on, General Gu, please."

Gu Junqing watched Ji Rang drink the whole glass in one gulp, without his white cuffs being even a mess. She had no choice but to drink one too.

"Just say what you want to say, Ji Xiang. I am just a rough soldier fighting in a war. I really don't want to bother with all those beating around the bush."

The tone was still calm, but it made people feel helpless and impatient for no reason.

Ji Rang put down his glass and nodded: "Okay, I do have something to ask you."

Gu Junqing also put down his wine glass: "Prime Minister Ji, please ask, I will tell you everything I know."

"Last time I went to the imperial banquet, I greeted General Gu, but the general looked very anxious, which made me very worried. Today I met General Gu and came to ask him to ease my worries."

It turns out he's here to settle a score.

Gu Junqing smiled, and it was as if all the flowers were blooming and the sun was rising, bright and beautiful. Ji Rang was dazzled by this beauty for a moment, but he calmed down and continued to listen to her.

"Oh, this, my Lord, you may not know, my personal maid Qingyi seems to have gone somewhere, I was really worried, I was afraid that she had offended some noble, so I ran to look for her."

From the way she said it, it seemed as if she really liked this maid and was afraid that she would be heartbroken if she lost her.

Ji Rang snorted in his heart, with a look of disbelief. After all, he was also present at the scene where Prince An's guards and concubines were having an affair.

The eunuch insisted that the man in the side hall was Gu Junqing. It was obvious that someone had arranged and designed it to make her fall into the trap. Gu Junqing took advantage of the situation and ended up causing Prince An's men to suffer.

I'm afraid that the love poison had taken effect at that time, and she went to find an antidote by herself.

Okay, now that she said that, it would be inappropriate for him to expose it himself, right?

"General Gu is truly affectionate," Ji Rang sighed and said nothing more.

Gu Junqing was enjoying his leisure time.

Looking down out the window, the sound of orderly footsteps could be heard in their box.

That was King Huai's man.

I heard that last night, the Emperor ordered Prince Huai to guard the imperial mausoleum in seven days. He could only return to Beijing after guarding for three years, and his salary would be fined for five years.

These were the first group of people that King Huai led to the imperial mausoleum.

"Your Majesty, Prince An has been demoted by the Emperor to guard the imperial mausoleum. It may seem like a demotion, but in fact he is protecting Prince Huai. This..."

Minister Liu had a worried look on his face, and his tone was filled with resentment and helplessness.

Prince An was silent and pondered.

Minister Liu glanced at Prince An, and seeing that he still didn't move, he continued, "Now that my son is dead in the hands of Prince Huai, haven't you always wanted to give the remaining princes of Da Qi to..." At this point, Minister Liu deliberately paused. After all, it was something that everyone knew, and Prince An was sure to understand.

"Now is the right time to take advantage of this opportunity to sue Prince Huai, while he is still in the capital. Once he leaves the capital, there will be no chance, Prince!"

When Prince An heard this, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "I know, why do you need to say more!"

"I have a plan. I will not let your precious son die in vain. The last time Concubine Liu died, we have not yet found out the truth. How about letting Marquis Liu take action and accuse King Huai of murdering his own concubine?"

Minister Liu's eyes lit up, and the corners of his drooping eyes curved up, looking particularly cunning: "Your Majesty, this is a great idea!"

"When the charges are decided, you will step in and add another charge of tyranny to King Huai. This way, even if the emperor wants to keep King Huai, the people of Daqi will not want to." "Your Majesty is wise!"

A lot is bound to happen on this day.

Here there was drinking, there there was plotting, and on the other side.

On the outskirts of Beijing.

King Huai stood under the century-old pear tree. Although the place was indeed beautiful, he had no time to appreciate it.

After all, he came out secretly. Who made him be imprisoned in Prince Huai's Mansion by the emperor and unable to come out? Isn't it because he had no choice but to come out to look for clues?

"Search for this king"

King Huai gave orders to the secret guards around him in a cold voice.

After receiving the order, four or five people began to search separately.

King Huai stood under the tree, one hand on the other wrist, squinting at them.

King Huai took a step back halfway subconsciously and frowned.

Why does this place feel a little wrong? He lifted his feet and lowered his head.

The soil he stepped on was slightly moist, probably because it had rained a few days ago, so the soil was washed away. He saw the inconspicuous corner of the book page.

King Huai's eyes moved, and he called out, "Qijiu"

Hearing his own prince calling him, Qijiu stopped searching and quickly moved towards King Huai.

King Huai pointed to the soil and said, "Dig it up and see."

A quarter of an hour later, that corner of the book page finally revealed its entire appearance.

It's an account book!

King Huai was somewhat doubtful and took it directly from Qijiu.

He flipped over it, and couldn't help but widen his eyes a little.

This is……

Minister Liu actually embezzled refugee pensions and the start-up funds for the construction of a local reservoir in the Suyuan area.

And some in other places.

He is so bold! If his younger brother knew about this, he would surely be killed!

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that Minister Liu's leverage was hidden under this pear tree. It really was easy to get it!"

After laughing, King Huai couldn't help but wonder, what does this have to do with Concubine Liu's death?

Could it be that the concubine was killed because she knew about this account book? But why is this account book still here and not taken away?

And what about Gu Junqing, did he reveal it intentionally or unintentionally?

"Of course there is another purpose."
