The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

The emperor looked at Prince Jing with some confusion, wondering what medicine he was selling in his gourd. At this time, Xia Yehong was also brought to the main hall.

"Xia Yehong, please tell me whether this child's accusation is true." The emperor looked at Xia Yehong and said.

Xia Yehong felt a little hesitant. He knew that if he told the truth, he might offend Prince Jing. But if you don't admit it, you may be suspected by the emperor. At this critical moment, he could only choose to tell the truth.

"Your Majesty, the accusation against this child is correct." Xia Yehong took a deep breath, lowered his head and said, "I ordered my men to kidnap him, and I also ordered people to poison the medicine."

The emperor looked at Xia Yehong in surprise. He did not expect that he would admit his crime. But at this time, Prince Jing suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty, although Xia Yehong admitted his crime, this does not prove that I am also the murderer." Prince Jing said seriously, "Xia Yehong is just a small person, and everything he did was under my instruction."

The emperor looked at Prince Jing in surprise. He didn't know what this man was thinking. At this critical moment, he actually wanted to take the blame for Xia Yehong.

In the end, although King Jing could not completely escape his guilt, the punishment he received was much lighter.

Through Xia Yechen's outstanding performance, the emperor saw his ability and value and decided to put power into his hands again.

"Xia Yechen, you did a great job this time." The emperor said with appreciation, "Not only did you find the real murderer, you also successfully rescued the child. You did a good job."

Xia Yechen replied humbly: "Your Majesty is overly complimentary.

This is the responsibility that Weichen should fulfill. "

The emperor nodded, then turned to Prince Jing: "Although you also have unshirkable responsibilities, for the sake of your past performance and the sake of the family, I have decided to give you a lighter sentence."

Prince Jing secretly clenched his fists in his heart. He was very dissatisfied with his failure, but he knew that this incident had made the emperor suspicious of him. He had to figure out a way to save the situation.

"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion." Prince Jing said cautiously, "We can set up a rule. Whoever finds the missing food first will get more power."

Prince Jing happily accepted the emperor's appointment, and he was determined to find the missing grain in order to regain the emperor's trust and respect. He stepped up his game and led his team to investigate.

However, Xia Yechen was not anxious at all. He knew that the rules of this game were proposed by King Jing, and he also knew that King Jing would not be able to find food no matter what.

He was not in this game for power, he just wanted to check and balance King Jing.

Time passed little by little, and Prince Jing's search work made no progress. He became increasingly anxious because he knew that if he could not find food, he would lose the emperor's trust and respect.

Xia Yechen, however, still remained calm and composed. Through his own eyes, he learned about the progress of Prince Jing's search.

Eventually, King Jing found a possible location. He led his team to investigate, but they soon discovered that the place was full of traps.

They tried to crack these traps, but they lacked the necessary keys and clues to successfully open them.

And Xia Yechen's eyeliner

But he told him the progress of Prince Jing's search.

Xia Yechen thought to himself, knowing that he needed to find the key to open the trap. But he was not in a hurry because he believed that Prince Jing would find the key before him.

Zhou Xiaoyuan looked at Xia Yechen's calmness and composure, and felt a little confused. She felt that the child might know something about the whereabouts of the key, but she was embarrassed to rub salt in Prince Jing's wounds.

Prince Jing has been disrupting people's lives recently due to a series of incidents. Xia Yechen really couldn't stand his behavior and decided to send someone to find the whereabouts of the key.

"Go and investigate and see if anyone knows the whereabouts of this key." Xia Yechen ordered, "If you have any clues, report to me immediately."

Xia Yechen's team began to search for clues, but they ultimately returned without success. Xia Yechen knew that this child was the only clue, but he didn't want to force him.

"Don't force this child, he may know some important clues." Xia Yechen instructed, "We will slowly communicate with him, and he will tell us the answer."

At the same time, the emperor was also very concerned about this batch of grain. He knew the importance of this batch of food to the country and was worried that this matter would have a negative impact on the country.

Just as Xia Yechen and Prince Jing were having trouble finding the key, the mysterious child suddenly appeared in front of Xia Yechen and handed him a key.

"This is it?" Xia Yechen asked doubtfully.

"This is the key to the secret room." The child said calmly, with a trace of imperceptible fatigue in his tone.

Xia Yechen was shocked. He did not force Xiao

The child handed over the key, but the child took the initiative to confess to him.

He knew that there must be more secrets hidden in this child, but the most important thing now was to find food.

"Thank you." Xia Yechen said sincerely, "But can you tell me where this secret room is?"

The child glanced at him, with a mischievous light flashing in his eyes. He pointed to a big tree and said, "It's just behind that big tree."

Xia Yechen found the entrance to the secret room according to the child's instructions. He took a deep breath and opened the door of the secret room with the key.

The world behind the door completely shocked him. There were not only missing grains in front of him, but also countless gold and silver treasures.

He secretly sighed at the magic and wisdom of this child, who actually knew that there was so much wealth hidden in this secret room.

Xia Yechen quickly told the emperor the news.

The emperor was very satisfied with Xia Yechen's outstanding performance. He decided to reward Xia Yechen with all the gold and silver treasures and return the power that had been taken away by Prince Jing to him.

"Xia Yechen, you have made great contributions this time, and I will reward you well." The emperor said with a smile, "You can use these gold and silver treasures at your disposal. At the same time, I will also return to you the power that was taken away by Prince Jing." ."

Xia Yechen gratefully accepted the emperor's reward, knowing that this was recognition of his efforts and wisdom.

At the same time, he also knew that these powers were a reflection of the emperor's trust and importance in him, and he must work harder to live up to the emperor's expectations.

However, with the return of power, Xia Yechen's schedule also became busy. He had to start busy again, dealing with various

Government affairs to ensure the prosperity and stability of the country.

"Daddy, why don't you have time to play with me recently?" Nini asked with some dissatisfaction.
