Xie Niushan was able to get to where he was today from being a bandit. Naturally, he did not rely on his stupidity.

He only accepted his colleagues’ treat once in a while, and the food he ate were all ordinary dishes. He did not dare to accept the other party’s expensive gifts, afraid that he would be schemed against.

As for women, he had thought about them before, but after Xie Qiao became the Princess Consort, he had completely stopped thinking about them.

He could not find a new mother-in-law for the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince’s mother-in-law could only be the family’s tigress. Even though she was no longer around, her glory lingered. It would not be good for others to take it away from her.

Therefore, when he saw those women who came knocking on his door, he would at most touch their hands, hug them, and give them a couple of kisses. He would definitely not take the next step.

Even if he felt stifled in his heart, he could only accept his fate.

However, as he was really following the rules now, even the members of the Lin family were polite when they saw him at Xie Qiao’s wedding.

That was the current Xie Niushan.

This black-clothed man did not know much, and he had indeed said everything he could.

When he came out of the criminal division, Zhao Xuanjing also had a headache.

Prince Rong was only ten years older than him, but he was still his uncle. He was just a man in black. Even if his confession went to his father, no matter how much his father trusted him, it would not be good for him to arrest him directly.

Xie Qiao did not disturb him.

There were many things for him to do. At the very least, he had to investigate all the families these women had fallen into.

Also, he had to find out about how long and how close Prince Rong was with the people he secretly contacted. He also had to find out that it was not that the Crown Prince did not have any aides by his side. It was just that he did not need them on normal days and was very idle, it was time for them to show their faces and come up with strategies.

Xie Qiao did not need to intervene in these matters.

However, before she left, Xie Qiao thought of Meng Jifang and said, “Previously, I calculated that Meng Jifang had a romantic tribulation. Recently, didn’t the public say that he had two beautiful foreign beauties? Could it be two of those women?”

“The inexplicable appearance of these beauties is most likely not from the right background, and they are foreign…” Zhao Xuanjing thought of the results of Xie Qiao and the grand preceptor’s divination by looking at the stars, and he already had an idea. “Since Great Consort Hui knows to contact the courtiers, she must have people in Mount Rong as well.”

Secretly, she must have given Mount Rong many benefits, right?

It was still early to find out.

In the imperial family, besides him, there were two other princes. Even if his father was in trouble, it was not Prince Rong’s turn to ascend to the throne. So… his two brothers also needed to be careful.

Zhao Xuanjing entered the palace first.

He also knew about the matter of his eldest sister. If her situation was also done by Prince Rong’s family, then his scheme was already deep in the palace.

He needed to get his mother to clean up the palace without leaving a trace.

Xie Qiao continued to do her own things obediently.

On that day, the first princess came out again. This time, she had received the royal decree and went out. She even invited Young Master Dai to meet her in the courtyard.

This time, the first princess’ complexion was much better than before. It could be seen that the talisman water was useful. In addition, there was a wound at the end of her eye, but the red mole’s color was not as bright.

When Young Master Dai saw the first princess, he was first delighted, then a look of surprise flashed across his face.

“What? Boheng, are you not happy to see me?” The first princess asked.

Dai Boheng was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face. “How can that be? Our wedding day will be in two days. According to the rules, it’s not good to see each other now. I’m worried that it’s not good for the Princess…”

“What’s not good about it? It’s just some stupid rules. Even if I don’t abide by them, what can they do? As for you, why don’t you show some concern seeing that the wound on my face has not healed?”
