n

n“You’re going to help me?”

n

n“Yes.” The eldest Princess smiled sweetly.

n

n“Only by returning the favor can our relationship last. We can’t let them suffer a loss, can we?”

n

nXiao ran waited for the rest of the story.

n

n“It just so happens that a few Grand scholars died at the Longwen Pavilion this time. If we transfer them over, it’ll be just right for two people to be inlaid with gold and endure for a while there. After that, they can be transferred out or promoted to other important departments.”

n

n“What rank is your official position?”

n

n“Rank five.”

n

n“Alright,” he said. Xiao ran agreed.

n

nShi Ming and Gu qiuhe were both rank six now. If they were to be transferred there and be promoted by one rank, they would have to use their relationship with the eldest Princess. No one would dare to jump out and find trouble.

n

n“Will it affect you?”

n

n“You think I’m afraid?”

n

n“You!” Xiao ran smiled and brushed his finger on her delicate and lovely nose.

n

n“How much do you know about Ji Dongyang?”

n

n“I’ve heard a little, but it’s just a rumor. I can’t be sure if it’s true. ” The eldest Princess said.

n

n“It’s said that Ji Dongyang had a daughter who no one has seen before. She seemed to have disappeared after that.”

n

n“Just this?” Xiao ran frowned.

n

n“Yes.” The eldest Princess nodded.

n

n“Ji Dongyang did not hesitate to sacrifice his life to help ninth brother this time. He shouldered everything for him and even turned the tables on boss and the rest. Could it be related to his daughter?”

n

n“Let’s make an assumption. ” Xiao ran said.

n

n“If Ji Dongyang’s daughter is the ninth Prince’s woman, he should have a son and a daughter after all these years. In this way, their relationship will be even deeper. With this layer of relationship, everything that Ji Dongyang has done can be explained. ”

n

nThe eldest Princess added,”his last words were to exonerate ninth brother and put the blame on Zhou.”

n

nThey looked at each other.

n

nThey were all shocked by this guess.

n

n“I have to say that the ninth Prince’s schemes and personality are unique. He schemed against everyone and took almost everything into consideration, but he still hid it so deeply. If he catches Princess Wei Wei this time, he’ll really turn the tables. ”

n

n“It is indeed a pity.” The eldest Princess sighed.

n

n“What’s his reaction?” Xiao ran asked again.

n

n“He Dabao, who went to deliver the Imperial edict, and his family outside the palace are dead. Eunuch Zhu gave the order personally. Sheng Wen is just trying to scare the Tiger by using this as an excuse to tell the boss and the others not to stretch their hands too far. It’s best not to think about what you shouldn’t have taken. Otherwise, they won’t even know how they died.”

n

n“It’s not only that, right?”

n

n“You’ve seen him before. He’s quite arrogant. He’s a dog, but he doesn’t have the awareness of a dog. Ninth brother was demoted, yet he still dared to provoke us. The combination of the two resulted in this scene. ”

n

n“Sixteenth Prince and the others didn’t say anything even after they died?”

n

n“A bunch of pigs were used by someone. They didn’t have the ability to get involved. Even if Ji Dongyang didn’t kill them, Sheng Wen wouldn’t let them off easily.” The eldest Princess explained.

n

n“Although the royal family has countless resources, the best cultivation resources are limited. After all, there are only so many good things. It’s impossible to waste them on pigs.”

n

n“Did he ascend the throne in the same way?”

n

n“Don’t ask! Knowing too much might not be a good thing for you. ”

n

nHe filled Xiao ran’s Cup with wine.

n

n“The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Do you have any plans?”

n

n“I’m done with this. I plan to take a few days off and relax.”

n

n“Didn’t you just take a month off the last time?” The eldest Princess was startled.

n

n“I’m not counting on this little salary. Besides, I still have the right to buy a house after the reward from last time. I’m planning to buy another house in a few days.”

n

nThe eldest Princess blinked, her bright eyes seemed to be able to see through him.

n

n“You have so many houses now, and you still want to buy a house?”

n

n“There are so many people in the capital. Countless people are cracking their heads trying to gain a foothold here. The house prices are rising rapidly. Buy more good houses and save them for the appreciation in value.” Xiao ran explained in all seriousness.

n

n“You lack this bit of money?”

n

n“I don’t lack! But buying a house is an obsession. ”

n

nThe Grand Princess was speechless.

n

nHe thought of the houses he had in Jingwen Lane. He already had three in Vermilion Bird Lane, and he still wanted to buy more. Was this person poisonous? You like houses so much?

n

nAfter dinner.

n

nXiao ran stood up from his chair and was about to leave.

n

n“I’m a little cold, can you hug me?” As she spoke, the eldest Princess deliberately trembled and tightened her body, as if she was really very cold.

n

nXiao ran didn’t point it out and walked over with a smile.

n

nHe held her in his arms and sat on the soft couch, lying on the bedding.

n

n“It would be great if time stopped forever at this moment.” The eldest Princess sighed.

n

n“This is easy.” Xiao ran smiled.

n

nUnder her puzzled gaze, he bent his finger and pointed.”Settle!”

n

nThe time Dao fruit rushed out of his body and floated above his head. The majestic power of time spun and froze the surroundings.

n

nIn the face of the power of time, everything was frozen in place.

n

n“!!!”The eldest princess’s face darkened.

n

nShe turned her head, gritted her teeth, and was so angry that her teeth were cracking.

n

n“You can freeze this place and the time of the entire illusion realm continent?”

n

n“You like it?”

n

nThe Grand Princess was stunned for a moment before she burst out laughing.”I like it.”

n

nShe turned around, stretched out her hand, held Xiao ran’s head, and kissed him.

n

n……

n

nAfter a long time.

n

nAt the prison door.

n

nXiao ran locked the door and waved his hand with a smile.”I’m leaving.”

n

n“Hurry up and get busy!” The eldest Princess rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

n

nHe left purgatory.

n

nHe walked out.

n

nZhang Yu had been waiting for Xiao ran for a long time when they arrived at the hall on the first floor. He immediately went up to him when he saw Xiao ran.”Brother Xiao, are you free tonight?”

n
