Chapter 412 Methods
"Xiaqin had contact with Shen Yue before, and he also took a large sum of money from Shen Li, which was used as the principal for him to buy an official. But now he has handed over the money to Ming Shengdi as evidence, proving that Xia Qixuan Buy an official and sell an official, and that money will naturally become stolen money." Seeing how anxious she was, Xia Shengqing told her the news she had found in one breath.

"Then, does Xia Qin know about Xia Qixuan's buying and selling of officials, or did he just hit the right track this time?" Xia Zijin rekindled his disappointment.

Xia Shengqing really couldn't bear to hit her, but she still told the truth, "I'm afraid that Xia Qin knew about this a long time ago, but because he couldn't grasp the real evidence, he tried to lure Shen Yue. Why was he in Akiyama when he was in Oakland?"

"Despicable!" Xia Zijin couldn't help scolding, and then remembered what Xia Qixuan had done, and felt a severe headache, "The reason why the stolen money can't be found in the Emperor's Changsun Mansion is because Xia Qixuan took all the stolen money here. It was used to raise soldiers, and as for the hiding places of those elite soldiers, he refused to reveal them no matter what.”

Up to now, Xia Qixuan was still wary of her, Xia Zijin felt angry and had to praise his vigilance at the same time.Although she could use this to separate herself from Xia Qixuan, but if Xia Qin gains power and ascends to the throne in the future, she will definitely not let him go.The other princes were either too young or too weak to compete with him for the throne.

Facing this situation, Xia Qixuan became the only choice.Seeing her frowning, looking distressed, Xia Shengqing involuntarily raised her hand to caress her frowning, and pulled her into his arms, "Zi Jin, you don't have to think so much, the boat will go straight when you reach the bridge." What's more, if there is really no way to get Xia Qixuan out of this matter, with Ming Shengdi's temperament, at most he will be punished to stay in Tibet, and he will not be allowed to return to Beijing without an edict."

Xia Zijin gave him a blank look. She didn't care at all whether Xia Qixuan could save his life. The important thing was whether Xia Qixuan could keep the capital to fight against Xia Qin.She didn't want her hard work these days to be in vain.If Xia Qixuan was sent back to Fandi, Xiaokui and Awei would definitely go back together, so she would never see Xiaokui.

A series of troublesome things emerged from her head one after another, Xia Zijin rubbed the center of her brows, and leaned against his chest with tired eyes.

When the carriage stopped in front of the son-in-law's mansion, Xia Zijin had already fallen asleep in his arms.The coachman moved the stool aside, opened the curtain, and was about to ask Xia Shengqing and Xia Zijin to get off the car, when Xia Shengqing suddenly turned his head and made a silent gesture to himself. What did he do wrong? Just as he was about to kneel down, he saw Xia Shengqing pointing to Xia Zijin in his arms. The driver noticed that she was asleep, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Xia Shengqing carefully picked up Xia Zijin, and then stepped on the pedals to get off the car.Seeing him returning to the mansion, the servants waiting in the mansion hurried forward to salute, but before they could say anything, they were frightened away by Xia Shengqing's stern gaze.Xin'er was waiting in the yard, and saw Xia Shengqing hugging a figure approaching from a distance, and hurried to the gate of the yard, saw Xia Zijin's sleeping face, and immediately stopped talking.

Early the next morning, Xia Zijin received a letter from Shen Li, saying that he had persuaded the concubines and concubines in the mansion to stand by his side, and then asked her about Huang Chenyan's daily life throughout the whole article, and finally urged her to take the The promotion of the Shen family to become an imperial merchant.

According to the normal situation, she has already entered the palace today to mention this matter with Ming Shengdi.The Shen family took the initiative to hand over the medicinal materials. They were sincere and deserved to be rewarded. In order to show his benevolence, Emperor Ming would definitely agree. It will only ask Ming Shengdi to talk about Shen's residence first.

After hesitating for a while, Xia Zijin still ordered Xin'er to grind the ink, write down the changes in the capital's situation in a letter, and inform Shen Yue.

In the palace, Yue Jing'an learned that Xia Zijin was authorized by Ming Shengdi to interrogate Xia Qixuan, and angrily threw the cup in her hand to the ground, her chest heaving uncontrollably.Seeing her like this, Mammy quickly stroked her chest to comfort her, "Mother, don't worry, this matter may not be bad."

"What do you mean?" Yue Jing'an's mind was dulled by worrying about Xia Shengqing's affairs for the past few days.If she hadn't only had one son, Xia Shengqing, she would have given up on him long ago and chosen someone else.It was ironic that she insisted on staying with the traitor's daughter now that she had worked so hard to preserve the blood of the Jinlai royal family.However, she had no choice but to abandon him directly. If Xia Shengqing had no intention of returning to the country, even if she could call on Jinlai's old troops to revolt in the future and regain the former emperor's country, no one would be able to succeed him.

Yue Jing'an clutched her chest, gasping for breath, thinking that all these things happened after Xia Qin met Xia Zijin, she couldn't help but clenched her palms and punched the table.

The nanny hurriedly grabbed her palm, looked carefully, and saw that the back of her hand was broken, she couldn't help frowning, "Mother, even if you get angry again, you can't hurt your body like this. If you really feel uncomfortable, why not?" Shan Laonu slapped the face to calm down?"

Seeing her worried eyes, Yue Jing'an shook her head, "Nurse, I'm really angry, why can't he understand Bengong's painstaking efforts, if he didn't insist on blocking, Xia Zijin would have died long ago, if this happened With Xia Zijin's little hoof involved, I don't know what he will do, why don't you tell me not to worry?"

The mother took out the ointment from the small box, and while applying the medicine, she said: "Mother, don't be angry, lest you ruin your body by anger. According to this old slave, although Princess Mingzhu is a bit seductive, she is not a fool." Yes, she will definitely find a way to separate herself from Xia Qixuan, otherwise, she would not have been able to confuse His Highness back then, there must have been some tricks."

Hearing what she said, Yue Jing'an couldn't help but glanced at her, and then chuckled, "You're right, Xia Zijin's little hoof has some tricks, otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to confuse Sheng Qing."

Seeing that she was no longer worried, Mammy put away the ointment, put it in the box, and helped her to lie down on the brocade couch beside her to rest.

Naturally, Huang Chenyan learned of this, and was also worried, avoiding everyone and rushing to the son-in-law's mansion overnight.Hearing the knock on the door, the butler opened it and looked at her wearing a veiled hat and hiding her body in a wide cloak. He couldn't help being stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to report, he saw Huang Chenyan press his middle finger on his lips. He immediately reacted, He hurriedly invited her into the mansion, looked around again, and then closed the door of the mansion, leading her all the way to the main courtyard.

It happened to be Xin'er's turn to watch the night tonight, she was sitting under the corridor, borrowing the light embroidered handkerchief outside, the young man in charge of guarding the gate hurried to her, saying that there was a visitor asking to see Xia Zijin.

Xin'er glanced at the sky, couldn't help feeling strange, put down her veil and followed him, and saw Huang Chenyan standing anxiously at the gate of the courtyard, and hurriedly saluted, "My servant has seen Miss Huang."

Huang Chenyan waved his hand, motioning for her to get up, "Is Zijin asleep?"

"Not yet, the princess and Lord Qiantui are still discussing things in the room. This servant will take you there." Xin'er shook her head, then turned around and walked to the room where Xia Zijin and Xia Shengqing usually slept, and knocked on the door.

Xia Zijin was discussing with Xia Shengqing how to get Xia Qixuan to put aside his involvement in this matter. Today, she specially asked Xia Shengqing to go to the homes of the officials who were sued, and without exception, she found that their residences were all covered with stakes. Here, there are also people who are watching.

It can be seen from this that the other party has long been prepared and is waiting for them to throw themselves into the trap.Originally, Xia Zijin planned to start with those officials, and no matter what method he used, he wanted them to rot the matter in their stomachs, but now it seems that it will not work.

Regardless of whether it was arranged by those secret sentinels combing Xiaqin or Ming Shengdi, these officials are already useless.She was upset when she heard Xin'er report that it was Huang Chenyan who came over, and immediately asked Xin'er to invite her in.

The tea on the table was already cold. After Xin'er came in, she immediately went out with the teacup to make a new pot of hot tea, and poured a cup for each of the three of her.Xia Zijin was holding the teacup, stroking the patterns on it with her fingers, "Chenyan, why are you here at this hour?"

Ming Shengdi appoints her to try this case, which means she agrees with her. After all, there is no precedent for a woman to handle government affairs before, but at the same time, it is Ming Shengdi's review and temptation of her. If she favors any party in this matter, she will Being accused of colluding with the other party by Ming Shengdi, then, the goodwill she has accumulated for a long time will be useless in an instant.

Seeing her helpless face, Huang Chenyan sighed involuntarily, tapped his fingers on the table one after another, glanced at Xiner, and Xiner immediately withdrew with interest.

"Zijin, I have an idea, but I just don't know if it will work." Huang Chenyan said hesitantly.

Xia Zijin turned her head to look at her instantly, her dark eyes were full of anticipation, "What can I do?"

"Those officials who bought officials all took office after the floods in the south of the Yangtze River. If there is a way to prove that the money Xia Qixuan received for buying officials was used to give back to the people, even if the emperor gets angry, he has to think about his own country and society." Huang Chenyan Blinking his eyes, "What's more, those officials who bought the official positions are all really talented and learned, not all incompetent and mediocre, Xia Qixuan's actions are not considered to be sincere harm to the court."

Xia Zijin's eyes lit up when she finished speaking, "Thank you, Dust."

Huang Chenyan thought about this method for a day and a night before he figured it out. Although it was a bit risky, but from the current point of view, this is indeed the best remedy.Xia Zijin took a deep breath, planning the method she just mentioned with an excited expression.

Xia Shengqing looked at her, pointed to the bruises under her eyes, "Zi Jin, since you have a solution, you should go to rest, otherwise, if you go out tomorrow, your eyes will be swollen."
