Female supremacy: The evil woman only wants to ascend the throne
Chapter 52 The snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman wins
"Shi Ming, you did a great job!"
Wan Qingyan took the secret letter and patted Shi Ming's shoulder with a smile.
Shi Ming does things just like tucking long johns into socks, which makes people feel at ease!
"Master Li, I have a secret letter from the capital!
Do you want me to read it out in front of everyone? Or do you want me to come with you to the backyard?"
Wan Qingyan held up the secret letter, shook it, raised his eyebrows and smiled proudly.
The corners of Li Guoan's mouth, which were originally raised, drooped instantly when he saw the secret letter.
A look of fear flashed in his eyes and he bit his lips tightly.
She recognized the envelope of the secret letter and the secret letter in Wan Qingyan's hand.
It was indeed a secret letter between her and Wan Qingjiao.
She roughly guessed the contents of the secret letter and was terrified.
If this secret letter reaches the hands of the empress, Wan Qingjiao will be fine.
Even if I die eight hundred times, it won’t be enough, and I won’t be able to protect my family.
Her hands trembled imperceptibly and she swallowed with some fear.
The grain merchants saw Li Guoan's constipated expression.
They understood and became quiet instantly. Everyone lowered their heads and behaved like quails.
What they are good at is observing people's words and expressions and changing their attitude according to the situation.
When the wind is in your favor, you will act like a bully; when the wind is against you, you will be completely silent.
After some thought, Li Guoan adjusted his state.
He put away his arrogance and put on a fake smile.
"Your Highness, you are joking. Let's go to the backyard!"
Li Guoan bent down, with a flattering smile on his face, and followed Wan Qingyan.
Wan Qingyan glanced at her with disdain and sneered.
The two walked to the backyard, found an empty room, and sat down facing each other.
Li Guoan still looked humble and spoke hypocritically.
"Your Highness, how about I just stand here and just give you instructions?"
"Master Li, I still admire your previous rebellious look.
Wan Qingyan sneered, his tone sarcastic.
"Your Highness, I was blinded by greed for a moment.
Please be magnanimous, don't bother with a fool like me, it's not worth it!
If you have anything you want done, just tell me!
But can this secret letter be returned to me?"
Li Guoan was very humble and fawning.
"Master Li, I tell you clearly, since I came to Qingzhou.
Send people to guard the official road, and you send someone to deliver the secret letter to the capital.
It cannot be sent out without my permission.
I know exactly what you wrote in the letter.
In order to let you relax your vigilance, I deliberately did not intercept the last reply letter from the capital.
Don't worry, I won't attack you, but in return.
I need your full cooperation in my disaster relief plan!
There are still people above you who can control the people behind you.
But no one above me can control the person behind me.
Lord Li, please think carefully before answering me."
Wan Qingyan made his words very clear, leaving no chance for Li Guoan to make jokes.
She wanted a positive answer, if she couldn't do it.
Then this secret letter will soon appear in front of the empress.
Not only will Li Guoan be doomed to death, but even Wan Qingjiao will have to work hard to get out.
Some things don't weigh even a few ounces if they're not weighed, but if they are weighed, they weigh even a thousand pounds.
Li Guoan frowned and put his hands behind his back.
He paced back and forth in the room anxiously, kicking and clattering, making a lot of noise.
Wan Qingyan didn't rush her, giving her time to think about the pros and cons.
After a moment, Li Guoan cleared his throat and said solemnly.
“Your Highness, I, Li Guoan, am willing to serve in your disaster relief program.
But there is one thing, if I work for you.
I really don’t know how to explain to Her Royal Highness, how about you…”
Li Guoan spoke frankly in the first half, but hesitated in the second half.
She did it on purpose, and clearly had an idea in mind.
But he just wanted Wan Qingyan to tell him the solution in person.
Wan Qingyan smiled knowingly and understood what Li Guoan meant.
"Master Li, you can write a letter back to the princess.
You can put all the blame on me, you don't need me to teach you this.
This is your specialty. Please show it to me after you finish writing it.
I'll deliver it to you myself, what do you think?"
Wan Qingyan gave the answer casually.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I understand!"
After hearing this, Li Guoan felt relieved.
She was very satisfied with the answer.
"One more thing, don't attack His Highness the Eighth Prince again!
I don't want the last street stabbing to happen again, do you understand?"
Wan Qingyan stood up and walked in front of Li Guoan.
He grabbed her collar, stared at her with a cold face, and warned her solemnly.
Li Guoan avoided looking directly into Wan Qingyan's eyes.
She was really afraid of Wan Qingyan now, so she could only nod in agreement.
Seeing that she agreed, Wan Qingyan also let go of her hand.
Prepare to go back to the front hall to deal with the remaining matters.
She had just taken a few steps when Li Guoan suddenly spoke in confusion.
"Your Highness, isn't that right? Last time, I sent someone to hinder the Eighth Prince's journey.
In order to buy time and deal with the evidence in Ma Chengguo’s dark room!
But I just ordered my subordinates to pretend to be disaster victims.
They picked quarrels with each other and tried every possible means to block the Eighth Prince's way.
Is this considered assassination? I have the heart but not the courage!!!"
At first, Li Guoan was so frightened by Wan Qingyan that he didn't react.
After a few seconds of thinking, I finally realized what was happening.
You can't bear such a heavy responsibility!
"Are you telling the truth?"
Wan Qingyan sat back, stared at Li Guoan's face, and asked back.
"Your Highness, it's already this time, why would I lie to you?
What I said is true. I definitely did not commit the assassination.
It seems someone is taking the blame for me, how despicable of them is that!"
Li Guoan's back teeth were about to break because she was the only one who plotted against others.
I didn't expect that I was tricked without even realizing it.
If Wan Qingyan hadn't brought up this matter, he would have been the one to take the blame.
"While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. What a good strategy!"
Wan Qingyan suddenly chuckled, his eyes sparkling.
"..."
Li Guoan was a little confused and didn't quite understand who this fisherman was?
I don’t understand why Wan Qingyan laughed for no apparent reason.
Since this man dared to plot against her, she must retaliate!
"Your Highness, do you know who this fisherman is?"
Li Guoan chuckled and asked shamelessly.
"You don't need to know this, just do your own thing honestly!"
Wan Qingyan had a guess, but lacked evidence.
"Okay, I understand."
Li Guoan didn't ask any more questions, thinking that he could just investigate it himself.
Wan Qingyan didn't say anything else, and the two of them returned to the front hall of the yamen together.
"Master Li, how are you going to deal with these two tainted witnesses?"
Wan Qingyan sat back on the high seat, looked at Li Guoan, and asked meaningfully.
She threw the problem to Li Guoan in public for him to solve.
Li Guoan's answer will represent her position.
It also lets everyone know what the outcome of this conversation is.
"Your Highness is wrong, they are not tainted witnesses.
They are criminals and should be executed according to the law!"
