The Daily Life of a Concubine's Daughter After Transmigrating

Upon hearing this, Ren Hushan was unwilling, but he could only swallow his anger for the time being.

He slowly stood up, gritting his teeth as he said, "Your Majesty, this humble official obeys!"

After saying that, he reluctantly wrote down the guarantee on the paper and pen that Xia Wanqing brought.

Li Anqi took the guarantee, looked at it carefully, and nodded slightly after confirming that it was correct.

Xiao Shunzi pointed sharply at Ren Hushan's swollen cheek: "Get out of here now!"

Although Ren Hushan was a yamen runner, Xiao Shunzi shouldn't have laid a hand on him.

But he simply couldn't swallow this insult.

He couldn't understand how a scoundrel like Ren Hushan could become an official!

Ren Hushan looked at Li Anqi, his resentment growing stronger.

He secretly vowed that one day he would make Li Anqi pay the price!

He scrambled to his feet in a disheveled state and, under the strange gazes of those around him, ran quickly away from Xiuyunzhai.

Zuo Siyun stepped forward to reassure the diners: "I hope you will not take today's events to heart."

After saying this, she quickly bowed to Li Anqi and said, "Thank you for saving us, Your Highness. If it weren't for your timely appearance, our shop would have been in great danger today."

Li Anqi shook his head slightly: "Sister-in-law, you flatter me. You met this person before."

Upon being reminded by Li Anqi, Zuo Siyun immediately recalled the day she was imprisoned in the human market and couldn't help but feel a chill.

Li Anqi continued, "This person caused a great disturbance at Haoyue Lanting last time, and I already taught him a lesson. His appearance at Xiuyunzhai this time may not be a coincidence."

"You mean, he's deliberately retaliating?" Li Anxiu was taken aback, then became worried about Li Anqi. "...You'd better be careful."

Li Anqi smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, brother."

After saying that, Li Anqi took the food box from Zhilan and handed it to Zuo Siyun.

"This is a fish I caught today. I specially made it into grilled fish to bring to my brother so he can have a taste."

Upon hearing the words "fishing" and "grilled fish," a flicker of something crossed Li Anxiu's eyes, as if a memory had been stirred, leaving him wistful and longing.

His eyes held a hint of disappointment, but a gentle smile curved his lips as he looked at Li Anqi: "Your Majesty, I've heard about the Northwest..."

Li Anqi remained expressionless, smiled slightly, and made a "shh" gesture.

She said nothing, yet it was as if she had said everything.

Li Anxiu knew, and she knew, about the incident involving the Ninth Prince.

Although Li Anqi and Ninth Master didn't have much interaction back then.

But Li Anxiu always felt that the two were exceptionally compatible, like a match made in heaven.

It's a pity...

Li Anqi stayed at Xiuyunzhai and chatted with Li Anxiu and Zuo Siyun for an afternoon.

When they returned to the Prince Xiao's residence, it was already dark.

Before long, Eunuch Fan arrived at Fuying Garden.

"Your Highness, the Prince has ordered you to serve in the Hui Palace last year to grind ink."

“…Understood.” Li Anqi looked at Liu Yun. “You will accompany me.”

"Hey!" Liu Yun smiled broadly, and before leaving, she hurriedly pinned a hibiscus flower to her hair.

We arrived at the study in the Hall of Year Emblems.

Liu Yun helped Li Anqi take off his fox fur coat.

Ling Luo was sitting at the table writing something.

After changing the charcoal in the stove, Eunuch Fan asked Ling Luo in a low voice:

"Your Highness, the incense in the burner has gone out. Shall we replace it with the new incense that Consort Qin sent?"

Ling Luo glanced at Li Anqi and said, "Mm."

Eunuch Fan nodded slightly and ordered a young eunuch to bring the incense that Li Baoqin had recently given him and light it in the incense burner.

As he inhaled the unique fragrance, a strange feeling inexplicably flashed through Li Anqi's mind.

She suppressed her discomfort, went to the desk, and knelt down to greet him: "Your Highness."

He then picked up the ink stick and began grinding the ink.

On Ling Luo's desk was a piece of paper, a secret letter from Hao Ge.

Ling Luo was holding a pen and writing a reply.

Li Anqi glanced at it casually and read the contents of the letter clearly.

The letter contained details of Zhang Zhi's recently discovered crimes!

It turns out that Zhang Zhi has been promoted to Minister of Personnel after being promoted by the Third Prince, and even Ling Luo has to give him some leeway!

Zhang Zhi has long abused his power, accepted bribes to sell official positions, and formed cliques for personal gain, amassing a large following.

Even Jing Chengwang, the Vice Minister of Works, was promoted back to the position after Zhang Zhi secretly created a vacancy, killed the original Vice Minister of Works, and then promoted him again!

The Vice Minister of Works... It turns out that Ren Hushan's uncle is Jing Chengwang!

"I have heard about what happened today," Ling Luo suddenly said.

Li Anqi was taken aback, thinking that he was blaming him for interfering in Haoyue Lanting's affairs.

"I ordered my men to imprison Ren Hushan in the prison."
