Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Duan Hongyi really didn't like this feeling. He felt very unhappy and hated Li Mingyue's condescending attitude.

Who does he think he is? It's as if he is already his prisoner!

It's really annoying.

"Young Master Duan, now that you have revealed yourself, there is no need to hide anymore. The head of the Qu family is already here, and what you want is also here, so there is no need to hide it anymore." Li Mingyue spoke in a cold voice, emitting a majestic aura, which made Duan Hongyi feel a sense of deterrence.

Duan Qing and Duan Ze behind him seemed unable to hold on any longer. Duan Hongyi smiled bitterly, but there was nothing he could do and he had to walk out.

Ying Mo, who was beside Li Mingyue, took a step forward, ready to protect Li Mingyue at any time.

Duan Hongyi did not say anything, nor did he take off his mask. He just threw the knife on the ground to show that he was willing to surrender.

Behind them, Duan Qing and Duan Ze were also fighting with the two people in the room. When they heard the noise outside the door, they stopped fighting at the same time. Duan Qing and Duan Ze pointed their knives at the two people in the room who pretended to be Qu Hongsheng, and retreated to approach Duan Hongyi.

Duan Hongyi patted the two of them and asked them to put down their hands holding the knives, then raised his hand to take off the veil on his face.

The next moment, he suddenly threw something out with the hand that was placed next to his ear. With a bang, a cloud of smoke exploded and enveloped the people in the yard.

When the smoke cleared, Duan Hongyi and the other two were no longer there.

Li Mingyue's other secret guard Ying Yan took a few people to chase after him, while Ying Mo continued to stay by Li Mingyue's side to guard him.

Li Mingyue frowned at Duan Hongyi's method of escape.

Was that gunpowder thrown just now? How did Duan Hongyi know how to make gunpowder? Only the imperial court knows how to make gunpowder. How did Duan Hongyi get it?

Li Mingyue was puzzled, but she didn't care much about Duan Hongyi's escape.

The monk can run away but the temple cannot. Duan Hongyi committed a heinous crime punishable by the death of nine generations of his clan. What difference does it make if he runs away? His parents and family members have already been taken under control.

In addition to the evidence kept by the Qu family, there is also the evidence that Li Mingyue and the Fifth Prince are colluding with the Yilan Kingdom that Li Mingyue has collected from various places during this period. The Duke Qin's Mansion cannot protect them.

He is the fifth prince, and I don’t know how his father will deal with him after he finds out.

Fortunately, I brought the wise minister Zhao Xian along for this clearing operation. Otherwise, my father might not believe the evidence I collected alone, and might even think that I deliberately framed my fifth brother.

Li Mingyue had the Qu family arrested and their residence sealed off. He also urgently summoned Yang Huai, the magistrate of Luoan City County, at night.

Late at night, Yang Huai was resting with his wife when they were awakened by the housekeeper's hurried knocking on the door. Yang Huai was a little unhappy, but thought that if it was not an emergency, the housekeeper would not knock on the door so late at night.

He put on his coat and opened the door. Before he could ask, the butler said anxiously, "Master, please change your clothes and go to the front hall. The Second Prince has arrived."

what! ?

Yang Huai was shocked. The Second Prince had arrived? How could this be possible?

"Oh, master, don't be in a daze. It is indeed the Second Prince who has arrived. I have seen the token. Please change your clothes quickly, otherwise you will offend the Second Prince." Seeing that Yang Huai was still surprised, the butler hurriedly urged him.

Yang Huai reacted and hurried into the house to change his clothes. Although he still didn't believe that the Second Prince would visit him late at night, the butler had also come with him from the capital and was knowledgeable and experienced. He believed that he would not mistake the Second Prince's token.

Mrs. Yang in the room had already stood up and heard what the housekeeper said. She immediately put on her coat and prepared Yang Huai's official uniform. As soon as Yang Huai entered the room, she helped him put on his clothes and quickly and neatly combed his hair.

The series of rapid operations stunned Yang Huai. Madam Yang patted him and urged him, "Husband, why are you so stunned? Hurry up and go. Housekeeper Yang shouldn't make any mistakes. I'll go and watch the maid boil water and make tea, and prepare some snacks and fruits before serving."

Yang Huai quickly thanked his wife and hurried out the door with the housekeeper.

In the front hall, Butler Yang was also a capable man. He had already instructed the maid to quickly boil water and was just waiting for it to boil.

Yang Huai hurried over and saw a young figure with starry eyebrows, sharp eyes and majestic aura sitting on the armchair in the middle of the main hall of the front hall, his fingers still tapping on the table.

Yang Huai took a closer look and realized that there was no need for a token. He recognized him at a glance. Who else could this be but the Second Prince?

Although he rarely attended court, he grew up in the imperial city after all. How could he not recognize the appearance of the princes?

He quickly straightened his clothes, stepped forward and bowed properly.

"Get up, Lord Yang, no need to be so polite." Yang Huai heard the second prince's voice calling him. His voice was mellow and gentle. Just as the legend said, he was a very kind and friendly prince, but there was still some seriousness in his tone.

We are all members of the Heavenly Family. Who knows if they are really friendly and harmonious?

However, Yang Huai still had a good impression of the second prince. After thanking the second prince, he stood up.
