Chushi Weiyang looked away at this moment, and then waved and said, "No. As the Sixth Prince, I have nothing to do here."

Shuo Ling glanced at Chushi Weiyang at this time. Then he pulled Yang Zijin to the palace gate.

When Chushi Weiyang saw it, he quickly followed up and scratched his head. He said, "Well, Marquis Shuo, I have been this palace for a long time. Please do me a favor and take me out!"

"No way." Shuo Ling did not turn his head and answered.

Hearing that, Chushi Weiyang quickly stopped Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin. He said, "Oh, Marquis Shuo. Take me out, please."

"No way." Shuo Ling said. Then he pulled Yang Zijin and detoured to the gate.

At this time, Chushi Weiyang couldn't help but pout and say, "Well. What's the big deal? If you don't take me out, I'll find a way out by myself."

Then he followed closely behind Shuo Ling.

When they came out of the gate, Chushi Weiyang lowered his head behind Shuo Ling.

The guards at the gate of the city saw that Shuo Ling came out with Yang Zijin. They all saluted and greeted them. "Your Lordship, Your Highness."

Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin nodded, and then headed for the outside.

At this time, a guard saw Chushi Weiyang and said, "Your Highness, you can only see Marquis Shuo off here."

The guard knew the relationship between Shuo Ling and Chushi Weiyang, so when they saw Chushi Weiyang, they stopped him.

"Ha-ha, I was invited by Marquis Shuo to go to visit them." Chushi Weiyang said with a fake smile

After hearing this, the guard was dubious, and then said to Chushi Weiyang, "Wait for a moment, Your Highness."

Then he quickly walked to Shuo Ling and bowed to Shuo Ling, "Your Lordship, have you invited His Highness?"

"Of course he did, right?" At this time, Chushi Weiyang also ran to Shuo Ling and said to him with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Shuo Ling looked at him and said, "No."

Then he pulled Yang Zijin to the outside.

"Shuo Ling, you... you have gone too far!" After Chushi Weiyang heard what Shuo Ling said, he was furious. He pointed to Shuo Ling and was about to rush over to scold him.

But how could these guards let him do what he wanted? They stopped Chushi Weiyang. But Chushi Weiyang jumped and shouted, "I want to go out of the palace. I want to go out of the palace!"

"Your Highness, please go back. His Majesty has ordered. Without His Majesty's permission, Your Highness cannot step out of the palace." Then a guard said to Chushi Weiyang.

Chushi Weiyang saw Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin headed for the outside without looking back, and they still didn't want to help him. Chushi Weiyang realized that he could not go out of the palace, so he stopped struggling.

Then Chushi Weiyang looked at the guard who spoke just now and snorted, "Let me go. I'm not happy now. Even if you ask me to go out of the palace, I won't bother to go."

"Your Highness, please forgive me." After hearing this, one of the guards hurriedly saluted and said.

Then he beckoned to the other two guards who stopped Chushi Weiyang to let go of Chushi Weiyang.

Chushi Weiyang snorted at this moment and turned to leave.

The guard just breathed a sigh of relief but he saw that Chushi Weiyang turned his head and pretended to rush out to the gate.

The guards who had just relaxed quickly blocked the door.

When Chushi Weiyang saw their reaction at this time, he couldn't help laughing. He said, "Ha-ha. It's so funny. You dared to stop me. I'll scare you to death."

Then Chushi Weiyang left satisfactorily.

This time, the guards at the gate kept watching Chushi Weiyang until he disappeared in their sight, and they then relaxed their vigilance.

Hearing what Chushi Youtian had said, Yang Zijin couldn't help laughing. Although the Sixth Prince usually seemed ignorant, sometimes he was quite cute.

She even had a little empathy with the Sixth Prince as he was teased by Shuo Ling.

When they walked out of the gate of the palace, Mo Li was already waiting there. "My Lord, Your Highness."

Jiang Wei, who was on the side, also came over at this time and said, "My Lord, Your Highness."

Shuo Ling nodded, and then helped Yang Zijin get into the carriage. Before Yang Zijin got into the carriage, Shuo Ling did not forget to whisper in her ear, "I will accompany you tonight after handling the things well."

After hearing this, Yang Zijin couldn't help but be embarrassed. She wanted to answer him directly that she could sleep well without his company.

But she nodded.

After Yang Zijin got into the carriage, Shuo Ling went to Jiang Wei and said, "These days, you should pay attention to Her Highness's diet and travel."

"Yes, My Lord." Jiang Wei saluted and said at this moment.

Then Shuo Ling got into his carriage and left the palace.

When Shuo Ling had just returned to his mansion, Eunuch Li came with an Imperial Edict.

Shuo Ling and Xu Qing came out together and went to the yard.

Eunuch Li pinched his throat at this moment and said, "Xu Qing from Jiandu, please listen to me and I'll read the Imperial Edict."

"Yes." Xu Qing said on his knees at this moment.

Eunuch Li opened one of the Imperial Edicts. "The Emperor considers that during the disaster of Jiandu, Xu Qing, the Community Head of Jiandu, was dedicated to the local people. Now Jiandu lacks the position of prefect, so you'll be appointed as the prefect of Jiandu."

"Prefect Xu, quickly. You should thank His Majesty." Eunuch Li stepped forward, looking at Xu Qing, and said with a smile.

At this moment, Xu Qing quickly replied, "Thank His Majesty. Long live His Majesty!"

Xu Qing said and took the Imperial Edict in the hands of Eunuch Li.

Then Eunuch Li pinched his throat and said, "My Lord, please listen to me and I'll read the Imperial Edict."

"Yes." Shuo Ling said at this moment.

Eunuch Li then opened the Imperial Edict and said, "The Emperor considers that Marquis Shuo made a significant contribution as Marquis Shuo went to relieve the disaster in Jiandu and helped the people build the dam. Also, as you fell in love with Infanta Qingcheng, your wedding could be held three days later."

"My Lord, congratulations." Eunuch Li then approached Shuo Ling and said to him with a smile.

Shuo Ling then took over the Imperial Edict, "Thank His Majesty."

And he stood up.

Eunuch Li went to Xu Qing at this moment and said, "Prefect Xu, His Majesty said that the stability of Jiandu could not be maintained without its prefect. Tomorrow, you should leave for Jiandu."

"Yes!" Xu Qing saluted and said at this moment.

Eunuch Li nodded at this moment and went to Shuo Ling. He said, "Your Lordship, there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in the palace, so I'll go now."

"Mo Li, see off Eunuch Li." Shuo Ling nodded and said to Mo Li.

Hearing that, Mo Li saluted and said, "Yes, My Lord."

Then he went to Eunuch Li and said, "Eunuch Li, please."

After Mo Li had sent Eunuch Li away, Xu Qing said to Shuo Ling, "I will go back to Jiandu tomorrow. My Lord, thank you for helping me these days. On behalf of the people in Jiandu, I want to extend appreciation to you, My Lord."

Xu Qing said and knelt.

"Mr. Xu, never mind. It's just a little effort. It's Mr. Xu that the people of Jiandu should thank." Shuo Ling said to Xu Qing at this moment.

Mo Li quickly stepped forward to help Xu Qing and said, "Mr. Xu, stand up, please."

At this time, Xu Qing stood up and said, "It's much more than a little effort. The fact that you built a dam for Jiandu has already made us appreciate it for a lifetime."

"Mr. Xu, His Lordship has always been like this. Now you have taken the post of the prefect of Jiandu. I think the people of Jiandu will live a good life under your leadership." Mo Li looked at Xu Qing and said at this moment.

Xu Qing nodded, and then saluted Shuo Ling and said, "My Lord, I'll go back to my bedroom to make some preparation first."

Upon hearing this, Shuo Ling nodded.

After Xu Qing left, Mo Li then turned his head and asked Shuo Ling, "My Lord, Mr. Xu will return to Jiandu tomorrow, and Prime Minister Lan must hate him so much now. Shall we send a few people to protect Mr. Xu?"

"No, Prime Minister Lan has not been so foolish. He will not lift a rock only to drop it on his own feet. If Mr. Xu has any accidents on the way back to Jiandu, the first person that people will think of must be Prime Minister Lan." Shuo Ling said seriously at this moment.

Then he said to Mo Li, "I don't think Prime Minister Lan will send someone to kill Mr. Xu. Instead, he will even send someone to secretly protect him!"

"Secretly protect him?" Mo Li slightly frowned. It seemed that he could not understand it.

Supposedly, Xu Qing handed over the accounting book to His Majesty, which caused Prime Minister Lan lost his right. It was estimated that Prime Minister Lan would like to kill Xu Qing cruelly. Maybe he even wanted to cut Xu Qing into pieces. Why did His Lordship say that Prime Minister Lan would secretly protect Xu Qing? Mo Li was very puzzled.

Shuo Ling said again at this moment, "Now Chushi Youtian has taken away all the positions of Prime Minister Lan, which is a fatal blow to Lan's family. But as a result, it is a great opportunity for other princes. If they want to take the opportunity to completely crush Lan's family, it will be a good choice to start with Xu Qing. At least the death of Xu Qing will make everyone think that the murderer must be one of Lan's family."

"I got it, My Lord. You mean that others want to use this trick to make Lan's family completely unable to revive. After all, the power of Prime Minister Lan among officials does not completely vanish now. If His Majesty is angered by this matter, these officials will dare not to have too many contacts with Prime Minister Lan in the future. Prime Minister Lan can naturally think of the things that others are thinking about." Mo Li suddenly realized after hearing that.

Shuo Ling nodded, turned, and walked to the house. As soon as he walked two steps, he stopped.

"My Lord, is there anything else?" Mo Li asked at this moment.

Shuo Ling commanded Mo Li, "Go. Let Zhou Ji keep an eye on Qiao Shu these days!"

"Yes, My Lord." Mo Li hurriedly replied.

While Yang Zijin came out of the palace, she didn't go back home directly. She asked Jiang Wei to go to Woman Flower.

They came back in a hurry yesterday and only went to the Blossoming Peach. She wondered how the business of Women Flower was.

She was free today, so she would like to go there and have a look.

When she arrived there, Yang Zijin got out of the carriage and then whispered in Jiang Wei's ear. She asked Jiang Wei to find Lin Mei in Moonlight and to take Madam Yang from the countryside.

Jiang Wei nodded after hearing that. She did not forget what Shuo Ling just said to her, so she said, "Your Highness, please wait for me at Women Flower."

"I know. Go quickly." Yang Zijin nodded and walked into Women Flower.
