After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 103 Good calculation

Yuan Man took a step back, looked at them and asked, "You are using me as a bargaining chip. Have you asked for my opinion?"

"Haha, you're just a woman. Does your opinion matter?" Xu Hongtu laughed again.

Yuan Man slowly sat down on the stone next to him, "It's very important."

"Because this can determine whether you can survive until tomorrow."

Xu Hongtu was stunned by her aura. "You, you fell down with just a weak push, but you are so arrogant."

"Chang Zeyuan, where did you find this person? It's very interesting."

Chang Zeyuan looked at Yuan Man and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Because he believed what she said. After all, she could become a distinguished guest of Xunxian Tower, so her identity must be extraordinary.

Why did he make the fool of sending her here? It's probably going to be difficult to deal with now.

"Sir Xu, now that the person has been handed over to you, we will leave first." After saying this, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait." Yuan Man said in a cold voice, "You sent me away as a bargaining chip, and you want to leave like this."

Chang Zeyuan immediately froze in place, not daring to turn back to refute, only thinking about how he could escape immediately.

Chang Jin has always been cautious, so when they came, he did not follow them inside, but waited at the entrance. He could hear some of their conversations here, and it would be easy for him to escape if something happened.

So after hearing Yuan Man's words, he immediately turned around and left.

When Chang Jin saw two men in black standing beside the carriage, his face turned grim.

He knew that his father had made a wrong move.

Yuan Man looked at Xu Hongtu and said, "I'll give you a chance. Tell me who your master is, and I'll let you go."

Xu Hongtu could see that this woman was definitely not an ordinary beauty. He looked at her sharply, "Who are you and what is your purpose?"

As he asked, he began to gather strength in his hands.

Yuan Man looked at him indifferently.

Xu Hongtu quickly grabbed her neck, but Yuan Man raised her left leg to kick his hand away and kicked him in the chest with her right leg.

Xu Hongtu was a general in the army after all, how could he be hit so easily by her kick? He dodged and tried to grab her again.

Yuan Man didn't want to take it slow with him, so he took out the Jingyun Sword and put it on his neck.

Xu Hongtu was so shocked that his eyes bulged out, "You..."

Yuan Man didn't want to listen to his nagging, so he asked directly: "Tell me, who is your master?"

Xu Hongtu felt the chill on his neck and was startled. He had only used two moves on her before she subdued him.

"What would it matter if I told you?"

Yuan Man moved his hand slightly, a blood mark immediately appeared, and blood began to drip along the edge of the sword.

Xu Hongtu didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that his head would be split apart if he wasn't careful.

At this moment, he had completely lost his previous high spirits, and the aura around him had long since disappeared.

"My master is Ning Feng. He has always been careful in his actions. Even if you know it's him, you can't do anything to him. You can't find evidence."

Yuan Man raised an eyebrow, "Some things don't require evidence, just knowing who it is is enough."

Ning Feng, this name is unfamiliar.

"What is your position?"

Xu Hongtu squinted at the collar on his neck, swallowed his saliva and said, "Deputy General, I usually visit various places for the master."

Yuan Man narrowed his eyes slightly, "Ning Feng, the governor of Dongzhou."

Xu Hongtu didn't even dare to nod, so he could only respond, "Yes."

Yuanman put away his sword.

Xu Hongtu opened his eyes wide and wanted to speak, but large mouthfuls of blood flowed out of his mouth and then he fell to the side.

"Master, how should we deal with them?" Yuan Yi and Yuan Er walked in carrying the Chang father and son.

Yuan Man wiped the Jingyun Sword and asked, "Besides you, who else knows about this place?"

Chang Ze glanced at the body on the ground, and Yuan shrank his neck and said, "We are the only ones who know."

"This place is for him to have fun. He is the only one here besides us father and son."

Yuan Man nodded, "How much silver do you need to pay to Ning Feng every year?"

"Three million taels of silver, one million catties of grain, and at least five thousand horses a year." The more Chang Zeyuan talked about it, the more sad he felt. This was all money he had worked hard to earn, and now he had to hand it over before he could even warm it up.

Yuan Man looked at him, "Have you seen Ning Feng?"

Chang Zeyuan nodded, "Every year when we pay the silver, he will entertain us once."

"How did you hand over the regular silver? Did you really give it to him?" Yuan Man thought of the account books she had seen. One account was given to Heihe, and the other was deposited in Youlai Money House.

Chang Zeyuan shook his head, "No, it was sent to..."

"It was sent in two batches. One was sent to a place called Heihe, and the other was sent to Shun'an City."

Yuanman nodded and didn't lie.

"Who is the King of Chu?"

Since the person behind the scenes is Ning Feng, and he is only the governor of Dongzhou, is there someone behind him?

Chang Zeyuan was stunned. Could it be that Xu Hongtu had just said this?

"The King of Chu is Ning Feng. I heard that he proclaimed himself as such."

Proclaiming oneself king is awesome.

"What did the guy surnamed Xu just say about helping your Chang family?"

Chang Zeyuan lowered his head after hearing this. "Although our Jing'an Marquis' Mansion has the title of Marquis' Mansion, it has long been in name only."

"Just when the Chang family could no longer hold on, Xu Hongtu approached my father and said that he would help the Chang family through this difficult time and that he could send a girl to the palace."

"So my father accepted it and sent my sister to Kyoto, but in the end, I don't know why, she became the Princess of Rong."

If Yuan Man had not received the information about Rat, he would have really guessed that it was Prince Rong who did it.

It's not Prince Rong, it's Ning Feng who did it on purpose. Once something happens to the Chang family, Prince Rong will be the one to take the blame.

Tsk, what a calculation.

"Very good, then write down everything you know and sign it. As for how you will be sentenced, it will be up to the court." After saying this, Yuan Man walked out of the valley.

She was originally planning to leave, but the case was solved immediately, and the next step was to hand it over to Hui Chengyuan.

What the truth is depends on how he investigates it.

Yuan Man did not return to Dongzhou either. He asked Yuan Yi to arrange someone to take the Chang father and son with him, and then set off back to Qinhe Mountain.

Hui Chengyuan in Kyoto also found out what he wanted to find out. When he saw the results of the investigation, his expression changed slightly and he stood up and walked towards Taiji Palace.

At this time, the emperor was looking at his private treasury account books, wanting to pick some for his beloved grandson, but no matter what he picked, he was not satisfied.

When Hui Chengyuan came in, he saw him carefully looking through the account book, "Father."

"Well, what is it?" the emperor replied, writing down the name of an item in the booklet next to him.

"This is what I have found out during this period of time." Hui Chengyuan said as he placed the memorial in front of him.

But the emperor just waved it away and continued to look at the items in the account book.

Seeing this, Hui Chengyuan's mouth twitched slightly, "Father."
