Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

"That's all."

Qin Yanling sighed, feeling a bit of a headache.

Prime Minister Xu, on the other hand, had been investigating Qin Yu's whereabouts.

Including who exactly these people are, they have been relentlessly pursuing Qin Yu.

As the saying goes, those who have a grudge against Qin Yu are friends of Prime Minister Xu.

Prime Minister Xu also wanted to cooperate with these people here.

Then, by cooperating with them, we can bring down Qin Yu.

If they manage to trip up Qin Yu, it will be of great benefit to them.

Seeing that Prime Minister Xu had been writing this letter, Xu Jinxin couldn't help but ask him, "Father...who are you writing this letter to?"

Prime Minister Xu was startled by Xu Jinxin's arrival and looked up at her. "I was just writing some trivial things. You don't need to think too much about it. By the way, you came into the study without even knocking, which startled your father."

"Dad, it was clearly you who didn't close the door, okay?"

Suddenly I remembered that the Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner.

Dragon boat races and similar events are held every Dragon Boat Festival.

It seems there has been no notification whatsoever this year.

Every Dragon Boat Festival was overseen by Prime Minister Xu, who was stationed here.

But for some reason, her father didn't make any plans for this year's Dragon Boat Festival.

"Indeed, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, but His Majesty has not given me any notification, so I will not make any notifications."

Prime Minister Xu is a clever man.

Prime Minister Xu will only do something if he is given an order; otherwise, he will not.

Prime Minister Xu would never do that, to avoid any unpleasant consequences.

Inside the Rakshasa Hidden Pavilion.

"In the past few days, it seems that someone has been targeting the Princess, but despite our investigations, we have been unable to determine which group of people is behind it."

One of the men, with a scarred face, couldn't help but mutter, "Is it possible that this princess is orchestrating this herself, deliberately creating this trouble for herself?"

...These people all shook their heads here, indicating that it couldn't possibly be like that.

"How could such a thing be done here? I think it's impossible."

After all, the princess seemed to have encountered many dangers on this journey, and more importantly, she had been hiding all the way.

If it were someone Qin Yu had personally placed around him, they wouldn't want Qin Yu dead; they were just putting on an act.

"The Pavilion Master has been ordering us to search for these people, but how are we supposed to find them in this vast sea of ​​people?"

Isn't this just making things difficult for them?

He felt a headache coming on for a moment, and then turned his attention to the other men in black.

"Regarding this matter, I don't know what to do for the time being. Why don't we just tell the Pavilion Master that we are unable to find out the whereabouts of these people?"

The others all shook their heads, indicating that this was not allowed. If they were told to the Pavilion Master, they would likely face certain death. The Pavilion Master hated useless people the most.

"If we can't find out the truth, won't all these people end up in the same situation? No matter how we investigate, it'll be the same anyway, so we might as well tell you sooner rather than later..."

They were whispering among themselves, discussing who owned the Rakshasa Pavilion. Some said it belonged to Prime Minister Xu of the imperial court, while others said it belonged to someone from beyond the Great Wall.

"It's best not to discuss this kind of thing here, lest someone who shouldn't hear it overhears it, and you might end up in danger."

Meanwhile, Qin Yu was building houses for them in Lin'an City and also had people build dams. His purpose was simple: to allow all the water to flow out and restore their homes.

At this moment, Qin Yu went to visit the official who had previously been in charge of the area once again.

If this official hadn't notified us so late, things wouldn't have escalated to such a serious point.

Soon after, they met the official, who was filled with fear the moment he saw Qin Yu.

I really felt that Qin Yu was like a devil.

I never imagined I would meet someone like Qin Yu here.

The officials were trembling with fear, and had been hiding here the whole time.

"Do you think you can escape if I want to kill you? I want to ask you, you are a subordinate of an official in the imperial court."

Qin Yu was particularly eager to know whose subordinate this person was. The only thing Qin Yu was certain of was that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

For a moment, the officials didn't know how to answer Qin Yu.

However, the official would never tell Qin Yu which official he belonged to, because if he did, his family would likely be in danger, and he couldn't allow his family to be put in danger.

Without hesitation, Qin Yu used his mind-reading ability to examine the official's mind and discovered that he was a third-rank official in the imperial court.

It is also known that this official's family members were being threatened by them.

"How about we make a deal here?"

The official was surprised that the princess wanted to make a deal with him here.

The official looked at Qin Yu with trembling eyes, feeling as if Qin Yu was trying to deceive him, only to get information out of him.

"I know your family is being threatened by those behind you. If I can rescue your family, would you be willing to follow me and do things for me?"

...The official was startled in that instant, never expecting that Qin Yu would know that his family had been kidnapped.

"Your Highness, do you possess some kind of mind-reading ability? How did you know my family had been kidnapped?"

"Your constantly shifting eyes indicate that something is amiss. I was merely using a small trick here, but you exposed it yourself. It has nothing to do with me."

...I have to say, the princess in front of me is truly amazing.

Qin Yu possesses exceptional beauty; if he were a man, he could certainly become a great ruler.

Unfortunately, Qin Yu was ultimately just a woman.

"I'll give you two days to think it over. Once you've made up your mind, have someone come and tell me directly. My patience is limited, so don't test my endurance here."

Shangguan Mufeng had no idea where Qin Yu had gone.

Just as they were about to enter the prison to see the officials from before, they unexpectedly saw Qin Yu.
