Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

After sending Prince Duan away.

Qin Ming called Chang Baishan, who was guarding outside the door, in.

"You heard everything he said just now, didn't you?"

"I heard, Your Highness, that the Xiao family can't defeat you, so they expect the imperial court to intervene. How shameless!"

Chang Baishan frowned and spoke, his face full of disdain.

What the Xiao family is doing now is like a child who just turned around and went back to complain to his parents or teacher after not having fought.

However, the person they met was not an ordinary person, but Qin Ming.

Qin Ming is not afraid of them complaining. He is a bachelor now and there is nothing the court can punish him with. If they really make him angry, the whole Lingnan will be shocked!

The imperial court was still engaged in a war in the north, so they didn't dare to force Qin Ming at this time.

"Let them sue. Speaking of which, how many times have the Xiao family tried to assassinate me?"

Qin Ming spoke lightly and suddenly asked a strange question.

After counting carefully on his fingers, Chang Baishan said:

"Big and small, there must have been seven or eight times in total."

Ever since Qin Ming killed the ten great priests of the Xiao family, leaving only Liu Yueli.

The Xiao family still did not give up. Instead, they kept arranging people to continue attacking Qin Ming from behind.

Anyway, the two sides have already torn their relations apart, no matter what insidious means they use, they will target Qin Ming.

Although Qin Ming has remained silent, he is not a pushover.

If the other party wants your life, they will have to pay a heavy price!

“So many times.”

Qin Ming stroked his chin and spoke softly.

Chang Baishan had followed him for many years and guessed what Qin Ming meant at a glance.

"Your Highness, why don't we go kill a few people from the Xiao family?"

Although what he said was arrogant, it also made sense.

The Xiao family launched an assassination attack unscrupulously, but Qin Ming did not fight back.

If others saw this, they would actually think that Qin Ming was afraid of them, and if it got out, they would be laughed at.

In fact, the reason why Qin Ming never fought back was very simple, mainly because he couldn't spare the effort.

Just as the salt industry was stabilized, the textile industry association was established. In addition, the transportation of various goods recently required his control.

Even with the help of Wan Shu and Sun Miao, Qin Ming is still very busy every day.

Now that many people have joined the Textile Industry Association, the pressure on me has been much less, so I finally have the time to deal with them.

"Let's do it."

Qin Ming nodded slowly. This time they were really going to draw their swords!

If he wanted to destroy the Xiao family, he would have to kill the backbones of the Xiao family.

"Who are you going to kill?"

Chang Baishan looked relieved. He had been waiting for Qin Ming's order for a long time.

"The eldest and second sons of the Xiao family."

hiss!

When these words came out, Chang Baishan took a breath of cold air.

"Your Highness, you dare to kill this?"

Chang Baishan would not be surprised if some ordinary members of the Xiao family were killed.

But this time it's completely different.

Qin Ming actually killed the two most prestigious people in the Xiao family with just one move.

"They must die. We don't have much time."

If Prince Duan had not come, Qin Ming would not even have the slightest idea of ​​killing the Xiao family.

But since he learned that Concubine Xiao Shufei was involved in this struggle and even wanted to use the power of the court to put pressure on himself.

Qin Ming became extremely alert.

He knew best what kind of people were in the Daqian court.

It has been almost two years since I left the capital.

How many things have happened in these two years, and how many of those officials who curry favor with the powerful have surrendered to Concubine Xiao Shufei and Prince Jin.

He doesn't know anything.

In order to avoid the other party's actions from affecting yourself.

The best option is to kill them directly and prevent them from reacting.

"I see."

After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Chang Baishan nodded.

All ten great priests of the Xiao family have been killed, and there are no more masters in the family.

With his strength, he can easily deal with the opponent.

"By the way, where was Liu Yueli imprisoned before?"

Before taking action, Qin Ming suddenly remembered that he had left someone alive.

From Liu Yueli, perhaps we can learn some places where the Xiao family often hangs out, which will help Chang Baishan increase the possibility of a successful assassination.

"In the prison, do you want to bring him here?"

"Bring it here, let's ask her something."

After Qin Ming nodded, Chang Baishan quickly brought people over.

"Kill me if you dare, I won't say a word!"

As soon as Liu Yueli sat in front of Qin Ming, she spoke viciously.

As she struggled hard, her hair swayed and a fragrant breeze blew.

Qin Ming sneered, walked forward and took out a green medicine bag the size of a thumb joint from behind the other person's neck.

"At this point, you still want to use some tricks on me?"

Just now, Liu Yueli was sitting here, with a face full of anger, and she kept roaring at Qin Ming.

But it didn't mean she was really angry.

Instead, it was her trick.

He used rage to cover up his poisoning.

"How did you find out!?"

Liu Yueli no longer had the anger she had just felt.

Only fear remained on his face.

"I told you, the workshop has researched all kinds of poisons. Compared to poisons, the methods of releasing these poisons are not complicated. You will know them after watching them a few times."

Qin Ming had previously allocated a special sum of funds.

Various research departments such as mechanisms, poisons, and metal materials were established in the workshop.

These departments seem to be of little practical use at the moment.

But as long as their research bears fruit, it can gradually change many things in this era.

For example, the method of production and the method of fighting on the battlefield.

"What do you want."

Liu Yueli lowered her head and felt weak all over.

It's a kind of psychological exhaustion.

Facing a guy like Qin Ming who sees through everything about him.

She couldn't resist at all.

"Not very good. Tell me everything you know about the eldest and second sons of the Xiao family."

"Will I survive?"

At this time, Liu Yueli suddenly spoke.

Snapped!

A slap hit her in the face.

"Do you think you can negotiate?"

Qin Ming looked at her coldly.

Liu Yueli gritted her teeth, a look of humiliation on her face, but fear still prevailed in her heart.

"Whatever you want to know, I can tell you."

"Where do they often appear and how to kill them."

Qin Ming did not hide his intentions. Hearing this, Liu Yueli felt even more frightened.

"You =... Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

"Why is that possible?"

Qin Ming asked back calmly.

"Kill them, what will you do?"

Snapped!

Another slap landed on Liu Yueli's round little face.

A clear slap mark was left on the snow-white and delicate skin.

Liu Yueli covered her face and dared not speak.

Qin Ming, however, read the subtext in her words.

She could kill the two brothers of the Xiao family, but Liu Yueli was only worried about not being able to clean up the aftermath.

"As long as I can kill them, it's fine. What happens next is none of your business."

"I see……"

Liu Yueli stood up, her fair and tender hands trembling slightly.

He picked up a pen and paper and wrote down a few places where the two brothers of the Xiao family often appeared.

They are basically restaurants, chambers of commerce and the like.

After seeing this, Qin Ming did not relax, but took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms.

Then he walked forward and said to Liu Yueli:

"Open your mouth."
