Chapter 889
The maid was stunned and saw Fang Rong swimming ashore on her own. Her eyes widened. Is the young lady overthinking this?
The upright maid naturally didn't expect that Fang Rong had never thought of seeking death, she just wanted to use the topic to show off.

He Jiuniang ruined her good deeds, so she simply relied on Lu Baichuan. Who told He Jiuniang to meddle in her own business?

Unexpectedly, she missed one point. Lu Baichuan was not that easy to calculate.

If not, how could he be promoted from a grassroots official to a second-level official in just a few years?

"Miss, you finally figured it out..."

The maid rushed towards him and cried. She was really scared to death just now.

She was just a little maid, and she wouldn't be able to survive if she just watched her master drown in the lake.

"Shut up! I'm not dead yet!"

Fang Rong was so angry that she stretched out her hand to pinch the maid to vent her anger. This stupid maid would sell her out sooner or later!

Now she was in a state of embarrassment. If anyone saw her, her reputation would be ruined, so she ordered the maid: "Take off your clothes and let me wear them!"

The maid was stunned. She didn't wear much. If she gave her own to the young lady, what would she wear?
Furthermore, if they were seen changing clothes here, would they still be alive?

Seeing her hesitation, Fang Rong wanted to slap her in the mouth again, but just as she raised her hand, she heard a series of footsteps, and not long after, they surrounded the master and servant.

"Disrupt the state banquet and have evil intentions. Take him away!"

The leading guard didn't care whether they were dressed appropriately or not. Anyway, the general ordered them to come and arrest people, so they just took them away.

There is no room for error at the state banquet tonight.

In fact, everyone saw her just now when she was still splashing in the water. They were about to come to rescue her when they were stopped by the general with a gesture, so they hid in the dark and watched.

After the general left, the woman went ashore without saying a word. How could she look like she was committing suicide?

Only then did they realize that the woman was pretending. No wonder the general didn't let them rescue her just now.

The general is wise!
Therefore, the eyes of Fang Rong, the master and the servant, were full of disgust and contempt. Do you think it would be interesting to show off at a state banquet when a lady from an official family insists on causing such a scene?

It seems that the family tradition is not good, and Mr. Fang may not be able to keep his official title in the future.

However, this can also be regarded as a warning to all civil and military officials from the new emperor's enthronement. Not only should they do what they should do, but they should also discipline their family members well and not let them do anything embarrassing.

"Ah! Let me go! You have arrested the wrong person! I am... ugh ugh!"

As soon as Fang Rong wanted to introduce herself, she was gagged and taken away. After all, the state banquet was still in progress, how could she still dare to make such a loud noise?

There is no kingly law!Be sure to take a copy of this book when you go to court tomorrow!
He Jiuniang didn't expect her kind reminder, and she almost lost her man.

Fortunately, Lu Baichuan was not a fool, and he was not deceived. Instead, he got someone arrested. The entire Fang family would be implicated, and Fang Rong's life would not be easy in the future.

After the banquet, He Jiuniang and Lu Baichuan did not leave with their families, but asked them to go back first, and he and Lu Baichuan met the emperor alone.

The emperor knew that she had not finished speaking in the main hall, and it was reasonable for her to come to him after the banquet.

But he never expected that He Jiuniang would actually bring King Xun here. Although it was King Xun who was knocked unconscious, it was indeed him.

"Is this the big gift you want to give me?"

There was shock on the emperor's face, but it didn't dampen his happiness at all. He couldn't hide his smile. "The Emperor's Holy Ming originally planned to bring it directly to the main hall for everyone to see, but I received a message and felt that I still couldn't alert the snake, so I could only use this method to tell the Emperor."

He Jiuniang explained seriously that it was not that she backed down in the face of the battle, but that there was a reason for it!

The emperor looked excited and curious: "How did you catch him? According to you, the news of his arrest has not spread yet?"

"When I was assassinated by the Xiteng people before, I suspected that he was responsible. Then this morning, Princess Xiteng was kidnapped again and was almost bullied. It was also his handiwork. I am waiting for him to take action today. Then he will catch them all. At present, the news has not spread yet, because all his people have been arrested by my men. "

When He Jiuniang takes action, she never disappoints.

The emperor became more and more excited. Not long ago, He Jiuniang said that the person behind the scenes was King Xun. He had been worried, worried that the country would start civil strife again before the Dongting matter was settled.

The internal friction would be too serious, and he neither dared nor could afford to gamble.

Just as he was thinking about discussing with Lu Baichuan in a while and settling the matter of searching for the king in advance and not allowing it to turn into a disaster, He Jiuniang had already sent this great gift.

If he remembered correctly, He Jiuniang seemed to be King Xun's biological daughter.

When He Jiuniang said that she would personally arrest King Xun and bring him to justice, he thought it was impossible. Family ties cannot be given up so easily.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't trust any Jiu Niang, he just thinks it would be a bit cruel to leave this matter to He Jiu Niang. As long as He Jiu Niang doesn't help Xun Wang, he will be satisfied.

But I didn't expect He Jiuniang to be so powerful and capture the person easily.

"I really don't know how to praise you! If you are willing to join the court as an official, I can still give you a promotion. However, you have no intention of doing anything in court. I am really..."

"It's okay, Your Majesty!" He Jiuniang quickly took over, "I don't want much, you know!"

"Hahahaha! Okay! I will definitely reward you heavily!"

The emperor was very generous. He Jiuniang helped him solve a major matter, so naturally he would give him whatever he asked for. After all, this matter brought him great benefits.

"By the way, what news did you get?"

This news should be crucial, otherwise He Jiuniang would not be allowed to change her mind temporarily.

Lu Baichuan also looked at her, but he didn't have time to know what the news was.

He Jiuniang didn't say anything, and directly handed over the envelope given by Mingze.

Show it to the emperor first, and then give it to Lu Baichuan to read.

After reading it, the two of them looked a little solemn.

"No wonder he made such a fuss back then, even sacrificing all his glory and wealth to go into exile. It turned out to be just for that mountain!"

The emperor almost gritted his teeth for the last few words.

Lu Baichuan said: "There are only two possibilities for him to know that there is a mine on that mountain. Either he has been sending people to search for it, or the local officials found it and donated it to him. He has been operating there for 20 years and has a huge power. We still need to It’s better to be careful.”

Yes, the information given by Mingze said that there was a mine in King Xun's territory, which was an iron ore.
