Chapter 31
As Song Yanxing got closer to him, Fang Buping was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground. He quickly straightened his body and knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Song Yanxing, his voice was full of fear, and he prayed, "Your Highness, spare your life."

Song Yanxing's eyes were sharp and sharp, "If I guess correctly, this is the flood relief fund allocated by the imperial court for Changping."

Fang Buping's body was trembling, and only Song Yanxing's boots could be seen in his sight, "Your Highness, please forgive me. I'm just temporarily obsessed with money. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Song Yanxing snorted coldly and said, "If I can forgive you, how can the people of Changping forgive you? You harmed the people just to get money. How can you settle this debt?"

Fang Buping kowtowed quickly and defended, "Your Highness, I have never harmed or harmed the people. Your Highness, I was just blinded by the money for a moment."

Song Yanxing disagreed and said, "Raise your head."

Fang Buping raised his head, and the two looked at each other. Song Yanxing's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, see through all the pretense of Fang Buping, and said, "Your purpose of gathering people to the east of the city, if I am not wrong, you are planning to waste your life." Let the common people of Changping die and completely conceal your embezzlement of stolen money."

Song Yanxing sneered and said, "But you never expected that the plague caused by the floods, the plague in Changping, you didn't hide it, your majesty sent Gu to provide relief."

After saying that, Song Yanxing paused, squinted his eyes with sharp eyes, and said, "So, I wonder if the killer I met on the road is related to you, and whether you were involved in the serious crime of murdering the current prince."

Old Fang Buping shook his head with tears and said, "Your Highness, please give me a clear warning. Even if you give me a hundred courages, I will not dare to murder you. Your Highness, please give me a clear warning."

Fang Buping knew in his heart that for the crime of embezzling stolen money, he would be beheaded at most.

But if it is to murder the current prince, it will be a serious crime that will be punished by the nine clans. Fang Buping still knows which is more serious.

Therefore, whether he was involved in the crime of murdering the prince or not, he could not admit it, not even to death.

Song Yanxing chuckled lightly and said, "It's okay if you don't admit it. I have a way to make you talk." After that, Song Yanxing said to Xiao Qi, "Take him away."

"Yes." Xiao Qi immediately pulled Fang Buping down.

Song Yanxing glanced at the silver on the bed, his eyes changed slightly, and he said, "Wuxiu, please take a closer look to see if there is anything wrong with this bedroom."

"Yes, Your Highness."

After giving all instructions, Song Yanxing left the inn.

……

"Miss, miss—"

Li Miaoyi was embroidering in the courtyard when she heard Meng Chun's voice from afar.

Li Miaoyi raised her head, looked at Meng Chun, and said, "Why are you running so fast and without any rules?"

Meng Chun breathed heavily and said, "I just heard on the street that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrested Mr. Fang, and now the people are spreading the news."

Li Miaoyi smiled and said, "That's a good thing."

Meng Chun seemed to hear some clues from Li Miaoyi's words. He looked at Li Miaoyi curiously and asked, "Miss, do you know something inside?"

Li Miaoyi found it interesting, tilted her head to look at Meng Chun, and asked, "What, you want to know?"

Meng Chun nodded fiercely.

Li Miaoyi smiled silently, and after a while she put away the smile on her face, and said seriously, "Meng Chun, you have to remember that there are some things that you should never know that you shouldn't know, and don't be curious, even if someone hands you the message. You can’t listen to your ears, you know?”

Meng Chun had never seen Li Miaoyi look so serious towards her. Meng Chun nodded in understanding, "Miss, I understand. You shouldn't know. You can't be curious."

Li Miaoyi nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she said, "Go and put the plum blossom cakes I made yesterday into a box and bring them over." "Yes."

After a long time, Meng Chun proposed an exquisite food box, and Li Miaoyi stretched out her hand and said, "Give it to me."

Seeing that Li Miaoyi was about to go out, Meng Chun said, "Miss, wait a minute." After that, he turned around and entered the house, took out a white cloak with green patterns and said, "Miss, it's cold, put it on."

Li Miaoyi turned around and Meng Chun put on the cloak for Li Miaoyi.

Li Miaoyi said, "No need to follow." After that, she slowly left.

Li Miaoyi walked straight towards Song Yanxing's courtyard, and happened to meet Song Yanxing, who was wearing a white fox fur with gold silk fur, walking this way.

Li Miaoyi hurriedly stepped forward, blessed Song Yan's body, and said, "Your Highness."

"Don't be too polite."

Li Miaoyi stood up, she smiled, her eyes seemed to be filled with bright light, she reached out and lifted the food box in her hand, and said, "This is the plum blossom cake made by my daughter, it is a little bit of my heart. , I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will not dislike it."

Plum cake.

Song Yanxing was startled for a moment, with a clear smile on his lips, and a tenderness in his eyes that even he didn't notice. Song Yanxing stretched out his hand, took the food box from Li Miaoyi's hand, and said, "I would like to thank Miss Li here." ”

Li Miaoyi blessed her body and said, "My congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Why, the news about Fang Buping's arrest spread so quickly. Now it has reached your ears?"

Li Miaoyi chuckled and said, "The people in Changping are spreading the news and applauding His Highness the Crown Prince."

Song Yanxing raised his brows slightly, tilted his head and chuckled a few times, and said, "Gu Ke also heard that they were applauding the woman in the east of the city who was curing the plague."

After a pause, Song Yanxing continued, "You are sure not to reveal your identity alone. This is a great achievement for you."

Li Miaoyi shook her head gently and said, "My daughter didn't come up with this prescription, and it's not my daughter's credit that I had the opportunity to enter the east of the city. I don't dare to take credit."

Li Miaoyi's words were very clear. It was not her fault. What she meant outside of her words was to put the credit on Song Yanxing.

Li Miaoyi also knows a truth very well: if you succeed, you must avoid its edge.

Song Yanxing nodded, he liked Li Miaoyi's neither arrogant nor impetuous appearance.

It is somewhat similar to Jiang Yunsong. If someone else had accomplished a small thing, they would definitely take credit immediately.

Song Yanxing said, "I have finished handling the matters in Changping in the past few days, and I will send you back to Wenyang."

Hearing this, Li Miaoyi quickly waved her hands and said, "Your Highness, I am not in a hurry to return to Wenyang. You can just go about your business first."

Song Yanxing shook his head and said, "It's almost the New Year, and the teacher must want to see you. If Gu still takes up Miss Li's time like this, the teacher should blame Gu."

Li Miaoyi heard what Song Yanxing said and quickly explained, "Your Highness thinks too much. How could my grandfather complain about Your Highness?"

"You still don't understand Teacher." After saying that, Song Yanxing narrowed his eyes, as if he remembered something.
