Chapter 262

"Our Chuyuan country pays them so much salary, so what's wrong with asking them to make some contribution to our Chuyuan country?" Qiao Anan rolled her eyes and said when she saw that Chu Yuanming was still reluctant.

"Aren't I just afraid that they won't be able to do it?" Chu Yuanming said.

What if those people don’t know how to do it and waste the food of their Chu Yuan country? Wouldn’t that be a waste?

"You don't allow this, and you don't allow that. You can't catch the wolf without risking the child. If you don't succeed the first time, you'll get it by trying a few more times." Qiao Anan said nonchalantly.

She was thinking that her husband was fighting outside, while these people were eating and drinking well at home every day, and they even wanted to kill the Qiao family for no reason.

Humph, they took all the advantage, she was not happy about that.

"Since An An thinks it's okay, let's give it a try." Chu Yuanming said uncertainly. It's not that he didn't believe Qiao An An, but he didn't believe King Dong'an and King Lin'an.

"By the way, father, I heard that Princess Lin'an is pregnant?" Qiao Anan dropped another bombshell.

"Who told you that?" Chu Yuanming widened his eyes. Pregnant?

who?

A servant in the mansion?

Is Chu Yuqing so poorly educated?

"Father, why don't you just ask the imperial physician to take a look?" Qiao Anan said, and left.

"Eunuch Li." Chu Yuanming called out with a bad look on his face.

"Your Majesty, I am here." Eunuch Li saw that Chu Yuanming's face was not very good, and he didn't know what the Second Prince's wife had said to him.

"Send a royal physician to the Lin'an Palace to take a look." Chu Yuanming did not say what to look at, but he secretly felt that Chu Yuqing was still his niece, and the exposure of a royal scandal would most likely not look good.

"Yes!"

When King Dong'an met Liu Yucheng, he was still quite friendly. After all, although Liu Yucheng did not give him much silver over the years, he did send him a lot of people.

It’s a pity that if we only have people but no money, we’ll be left with nothing.

"Your Highness, I am honored to meet you!" Liu Yucheng was nervous and excited at this moment. He was afraid that the prince would ask him about the three million taels of silver.

After all, he really couldn't get it out in a short period of time.

"Yucheng, please sit down!" Prince Dong'an said gently. It was hard to tell that such a prince would keep private soldiers.

I think this person is the type who pretends to be a pig and then thinks about it.

"Your Highness, why are you back in the capital?" Liu Yucheng asked carefully.

"Well, I haven't been back for a long time, so I came back to take a look." Prince Dong'an came back secretly this time, mainly because he was short of money. He wanted to see if there was any way to make more money in the capital.

Otherwise, the private soldiers he raised would also need money.

But he didn't know that the private army he was proud of had now had its lair destroyed by the people sent by Chu Yuanming.

Even now, his every move is being watched by Chu Yuanming's people.

The reason why he didn't arrest him immediately was because Chu Yuanming hadn't figured out how to deal with him.

I thought, he can't cause any trouble anyway, so let him be free for a few more days.

Wang Ye was not so lucky. Because of what Chu Yuqing had done before, and the fact that Prince Lin'an was escorted back to the capital, the people who met Wang Ye at this time were not Prince Lin'an at all, but Chu Yuanming's people.

"Your Highness!" Wang Ye called out flatteringly.

"Hello, Lord Wang!" Wang Dong, who was dressed in the prince's court robes, turned around with a smile and waved to Wang Ye.

"You...who are you!" Wang was also shocked.

Who is this person?

"Of course I am your 'Prince'! Take him away!" Wang Dong waved his hand and took Wang Ye away.

"Yucheng, I don't lack people now. Please come back and help me get some more..." Prince Dong'an made a gesture of showing silver to Liu Yucheng, then said with a smile.

"Your Highness, it's not that I'm unwilling, but the situation outside is tense now, and I just thought that the two million taels I sent last time should not have been spent yet." Liu Yucheng said a little nervously.

"When did you send me three million taels of silver?" King Dong'an was unhappy when he heard this. He had never received any silver sent by Liu Yucheng.

Two million taels! Where did Liu Yucheng send the silver?

"Didn't...didn't receive it? Three months ago, I clearly asked Lord Wang to deliver it to you?" Liu Yucheng was shocked when he heard this. Could it be that Wang Ye swallowed the silver?

"Which Lord did you give it to?" King Dong'an frowned, feeling very angry, not knowing who had stolen his silver.

"It's Lord Wang Ye, the grandson of Master Wang in the capital?" Liu Yucheng was shocked. He had given a lot of money to Wang Ye over the years. Could it be that all the money went into someone else's pocket?

When he thought of this, Liu Yucheng felt his heart turn cold.

"How much silver did you give him?" King Dong'an looked very bad. King Ye had given him some silver, but not much.

"Three months ago, I gave him two million taels. Basically, every three months, I would give him a considerable amount of silver." Liu Yucheng felt choked up at this moment, unable to speak or let go. He had not expected that Wang Ye had actually embezzled the silver.

Over the years, he has given away a lot of gifts, big and small.

If Liu Ruolin hadn't spent all the silver by accident this time, the three million taels might have fallen into Wang Ye's hands.

"Wang Ye! You actually embezzled my money. Go and find Wang Ye!" King Dong'an said angrily. He wanted to see how Wang Ye would explain to him.

For some reason, when Liu Yucheng heard that Prince Dong'an had sent someone to look for Wang Ye, he felt like he was being lied to.

Before he could figure it out, a group of soldiers came in from outside.

"What are you doing?" Prince Dong'an was shocked when he saw the people coming. He had run back secretly. If the emperor knew about it, it would be a capital crime. He could not expose his ambition before he had built up enough strength.

"Sir, we are good citizens!" Liu Yucheng said quickly in fear, feeling even more uneasy.

"Prince Dong'an, Liu Yucheng, please come with us!" Wang Dong did not give the two a chance to explain.

"Sir, what have I done wrong?" Liu Yucheng was shocked and didn't understand why he was arrested.

"Don't you know what you have done wrong?" Wang Dong snorted. Humph, this Liu Yucheng is not innocent at all. Their people have already found out that the tragic murder of 108 members of the Zuo family in the movie city was caused by this Liu Yucheng.

"Sir, you must have made a mistake. I came to Beijing to visit my relatives. I heard that the second prince got married, and my wife and Empress Xian in the palace are real sisters." Liu Yucheng said with a smile.

In fact, he wanted to tell the guards that he was the second prince's man.

"That's right, Lord Liu, please come with us!" Wang Dong glanced at Liu Yucheng lightly and wanted to pull the second prince!
