The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy
Chapter 278 The Marquis is still not healed
The Second Prince vowed to protect his last bit of dignity even at the cost of his life. How dare such a stinky woman covet him? She’s dreaming!
The Regent King made the final decision, his cold eyes looking at him as if he were dead. "If you don't agree, you can die here. I am willing to personally fulfill your wish."
The Second Prince was horrified. He knew the Regent would never lie, and would show no mercy to his men. A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, and then all turned into a wave of indignation. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "This Prince..."
"Since the Second Prince has agreed, come on!"
When Miss Nie heard that he also agreed to the marriage, her mouth immediately grinned from ear to ear. She directly pulled him away from the banquet and went to cultivate her relationship with her dear fiancé.
The Second Prince was so devastated that he forgot to breathe, and his whole body looked like it was about to break into pieces. He was so... fragile.
The fierce action made everyone present stunned. Isn't this really a female bandit?
And the Second Prince didn't seem to agree! He really has poor hearing and strong attack power.
General Nie was so moved that he almost cried. The ministers near him could hear him mumbling to himself, "My girl has grown up, woo woo~"
Everyone: "..."
"Haha! It's good for the young couple to cultivate their relationship. We in Yanhuang Country don't support marriages without love."
Qin Guoliang said this seriously, and Princess Chi Feiwan beside him nodded repeatedly. "Yes, it is really a happy thing to bring two like-minded young people together again this time."
However, she was cursing furiously in her heart: "The Second Prince, that idiot, dares to threaten me and my daughter? I'll give you impotence pills when you get married, and you'll be a eunuch for the rest of your life."
Qin Miaoxi: [As expected of Poison Lord…]
Just as I was halfway through my rant, I heard: [Why not just chop off two ounces of his flesh, to prevent someone from being blind and giving him a hard time? It really gives this short-sighted and short-sighted little man a good deal.]
Qin Miaoxi: [Sure enough, Poison Lord is still conservative.]
Everyone couldn't help but twitch their lips at her words. It would be better if they didn't have this kind of "mutual understanding"!
At this moment, they finally understood one thing: If I can't reason with you about real internal fighting, then I just happen to know a little bit about fighting. In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are just paper tigers.
In order to ease the awkwardness on the scene, Emperor Meiji quickly asked someone to perform on stage, and the atmosphere eased a lot for a while. However, some curious people took the opportunity to go outside the courtyard to watch the show while he was using the toilet. Emperor Meiji could only turn a blind eye and let them do as they pleased.
Qin Guoliang seemed indifferent, but he was a smooth-talking person when he wanted to, and he soon pulled Emperor Meiji aside to discuss cooperation matters at the border.
Suddenly, Qin Guoliang looked towards the audience and chuckled softly, "I heard that my wife was able to successfully catch the person who poisoned her this time, all thanks to Qin the coroner."
Emperor Meiji was distracted for a moment, pursing his lips thoughtfully, but still smiling, he replied, "Yes! Madam Xuanping is indeed very capable in solving cases and performing autopsies."
Qin Guoliang looked at Qin Miaoxi deeply and said nonchalantly, "Since my wife has received the favor of Qin the Coroner, I am willing to offer three cities for trade as a token of my sincerity."
? ?
Emperor Meiji was shocked by his generosity. The cities of the Yanhuang Kingdom were not comparable to theirs. Each city was a large city with a population of tens of millions.
"Three cities?"
Qin Guoliang glanced at him and asked, "Your Majesty, do you think it's too little?"
"No, no, of course not." He pondered for a moment and said, "Our country is willing to also provide three cities, but... I wonder if the Regent can choose someone to govern them?"
He was not naive enough to think that the Regent would give up the management of several cities.
Unexpectedly, Qin Guoliang did not respond directly to his words, but said: "I heard that Xuanping Hou's mother is the richest person in Longyuan State. She has a unique vision in business and has a good management style in various fields."
Emperor Meiji's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately responded, "Yes, Marquis Xuanping's mother, Jiang, is indeed a master strategist and the first richest woman in our country."
Qin Guoliang pondered for a moment, then said solemnly, "Your Majesty, since Qin the Coroner has done us a favor, I would like to use this opportunity of opening up trade to hand over the jurisdiction of several border cities to Marquis Xuanping."
Emperor Meiji was stunned for a moment, and it was only when the Empress beside him secretly tugged at his sleeve that he came back to his senses and avoided losing face in front of the Regent.
But he couldn't help swallowing, and asked in disbelief, "Does the Regent really want to hand over the management of the three cities to us?"
Qin Guoliang repeated with a half-smile, "It is managed by the Marquis of Xuanping."
Emperor Meiji was displeased, but with a sincere look on his face, he advised, "Prince Regent, you don't know that Marquis Xuanping is different from his mother, Jiang. He has no business talent. Instead, he is a playboy who spends money like water. He has even almost completely ruined the huge family business left by Jiang. It would be better for me to send a capable minister to govern and ensure that trade between the two countries will flourish and prosper."
For some reason, he just didn't want Lu Qingchen to get involved in this matter. With his ability, how could he be qualified to govern six cities?
Moreover, he was also afraid that Lu Qingchen really inherited Jiang's business talent. He couldn't see anything in Jingzhao, but what if he went to the border and acted recklessly, and he found out anything?
When he thought about how he, an emperor, had to kowtow and flatter a woman and child from the Jiang family, he was filled with regret.
Qin Guoliang raised his head and met Emperor Meiji's eyes, his voice carrying a hint of chill, "But I heard that Marquis Xuanping was so kind as to donate most of Jiang's dowry to the Longyuan Kingdom's treasury."
This old bastard is really just throwing down his bowl and cursing. Back then, their Longyuan Kingdom's treasury was completely empty. If it weren't for the Jiang family donating most of their wealth, it's unclear whether Longyuan Kingdom would still exist. Now he's actually spouting all this nonsense. Does he really think everyone is being fooled by him?
Qin Miaoxi glanced at the stage thoughtfully. Her cheap father had done some investigation before coming here!
Emperor Meiji's face turned pale. Wasn't this a revelation of his past?!
At this time, the Queen broke the deadlock and said with a smile: "The Regent is right. Xuanping Hou is naturally innocent. He loved to play when he was young, but now that he has married Qin the Coroner, he has naturally restrained himself. He will definitely be able to manage the six cities well."
She said this not only to reassure Marquis Xuanping, but also to remind Emperor Meiji that the Regent was not interested in Marquis Xuanping, but in Qin Miaoxi, who was helping his princess.
If he still wants to place someone else in, I'm afraid the Regent will not hand over the three cities to the jurisdiction of Longyuan Kingdom, which would be a loss.
The words woke the Emperor Meiji up, and he suddenly realized what was going on. However, seeing that Marquis Xuanping was not present, he still wanted to delay.
[But giving it to Lu Qingchen really isn't an option. Since he's not here, perhaps I can use this opportunity to get the Regent to change his mind. But that can only be done from...]
"Madam Xuanping Hou!"
Qin Miaoxi had already heard his thoughts, but she had never expected that he would come up with a method that would start from her side. It was really disgusting. However, she wanted to see if this man was going to ask for punishment or if he could tell her the truth.
"My wife is here."
Qin Miaoxi took a step forward, and suddenly the hall fell silent. Everyone looked at her, wondering why the emperor called her by name?
Emperor Meiji first highly praised her for helping to catch the real murderer, and then asked, "Why didn't Marquis Xuanping come today?"
Qin Miaoxi glanced at Eunuch Wu beside him strangely. Hadn't the reason for not coming been reported long ago?
Eunuch Wu hurriedly said something in Emperor Meiji's ear. Emperor Meiji's expression changed in an instant, but in the end he showed a look of sympathy and pity towards Qin Miaoxi.
"So the Marquis of Xuanping hasn't recovered yet and has gone to see a doctor!" He exclaimed, sighing, "Madam, you are so shameless! Why didn't you tell me about such a serious matter? Doctor Li from the Imperial Hospital specializes in treating illnesses like spleen deficiency!"
[Haha! Fine, fine, fine. If that's the case, then even if I give him the Inter-Market Supervisor, what difference will that make? He'll still be a useless person.]
