After time-traveling, the farming female supporting role turned over with cannon fodder and salted f

Chapter 197
But those people chose the stupidest method of head-to-head, and they had to imitate the style of the Yulin Army all the time, restraining their own kung fu and not being able to exert their full strength.

Si Ruiyan still vividly remembered the death fight that day.

"If it's not the Imperial Forest Army, then who would dare to pretend to be the Forbidden Army in the palace?" Cheng Feng thought for a long time, and felt that His Highness's words made sense.Li Daitao has become so stiff, and those people may not be the real imperial guards.

"Evil comes from courage. Driven by ambition, anyone may have the courage." Si Ruiyan chuckled coldly, with a look of coldness in his eyes.

Xiao Guang is one of the suspects, and his motives are too obvious.

Years of imperial service have allowed him to see through the world.The world is so cold, let him know that if he wants to be truly superior, he must hold power in his hands.

However, in addition to being able to step on him by the powerful officials in the court, his elder brother is also superior to him.

Since ancient times, brothers have unconsciously compared each other, let alone sisters.Even if it is a family, it is inevitable to fight openly and secretly.

The world only knows the Minister of the Xiao family, but not the imperial envoy of the Xiao family.The feeling of being inferior in the clan is worse than being despised outside.

In the past, it could be tolerated. As long as Xiao Guang can be his imperial envoy with peace of mind and make great contributions, the emperor will reward him.

But when he returned to Beijing this time, what he was waiting for was not a reward for meritorious deeds, but a gift of money and leisure.Before that, the elder brother's daughter became the emperor's favorite, and the commercial measures she made solved the urgent need of the capital.

This achievement under the eyes of the emperor overwhelmed his hard work for many years.Si Ruiyan knew why Xiao Guang took the risk and murdered his niece, because his heart was twisted.

He wanted a high official and rich salary, and wanted to be a courtier favored by the emperor.But all of this was easily accomplished by a little girl. She made a lot of money every day, and got the emperor's personal inscription. This is not an honor that everyone can have.

Earning both wealth and fame is what many people dream of.

Xiao Guang has worked hard for more than ten years but failed to achieve it, Xiao Ning got everything he wanted in just one month.Even if this person is his niece, it is enough to make him jealous.

But jealousy was not enough to ignite his murderous intentions, presumably it was because Xiao Ran deliberately lured Xiao Ning back to his residence, which made him fearful.

Xiao Guang was very clear about his brother's thoughts.

He knew that his elder brother was ambitious, and he also wanted to use financial and material resources to help himself to a higher level.

Her biological daughter has made great achievements at a young age. As long as she doesn't commit crimes and touch the emperor's scales in the future, her life will be a bright future.As a biological father, just taking a share of it would be enough for him to flourish.

There are many corrupt officials in the world, and there are also many who obtained official positions through money transactions.It is impossible for the emperor to catch them, most of them just turn a blind eye.As long as the high-ranking courtier through the transaction handles his official duties well, he will not take care of the rest.

Xiao Ran is in the position of Minister, and has worked hard for many years, and he has never made a mistake in anything he does.Going one step further, he is also competent enough, and no one in the DPRK dares to question this.

What he lacks is an opportunity, either recommended by the courtiers, or bestowed by the emperor himself.

After so many years, the emperor has never promoted Xiao Ran, so he naturally understands that he can only take the road of recommendation by courtiers.

Money is what li xuan needs most now.

Once Xiao Ning returns to his family, Xiao Ran can make some requests logically.With financial resources to support officialdom, all boats can rise.

However, all these scenes were exactly what Xiao Guang didn't want to see.

He didn't want his elder brother to step on his head, and still rely on money to make a fortune.

The Xiao family is also a family of scholars and a house of etiquette.The descendants of all generations are fathers who are kind and sons filial, brothers and friends who are respectful, but when it is the turn of these two brothers, Xiao Ran and Xiao Guang, something is not quite right.

These days, Si Ruiyan has been secretly probing every move of the two brothers.

Elder brother Xiao Ran, as a minister, has endless business affairs to deal with every day.Both the emperor and the officials trust him very much, and take care of all matters big and small, and even come to ask for advice on matters that do not belong to him.

Every day when she returned home exhausted, Xiao Qi brought a bowl of calming tea and said some nice sweet words to please her father.Xiao Ning is not as careful as she is, and doesn't know how to please, so Xiao Ran has always been partial to Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi didn't know where she learned those flattering tricks, and it was easy to use on her father. Poor Xiao Ran was so secretly played by the applause without knowing it. She always thought that his daughter was kind-hearted, and only others hurt her. her share.

After the prince gave Xiao Ning a marriage, Xiao Qi became the only daughter of the Xiao family.In the future, no matter whether Xiao Ran wants to advance bravely in the officialdom, or wants to be content with the status quo, he can use this daughter to make a fuss.

As the daughter of Shangshu, Xiao Qi can marry a royal family or a scholarly family.Advancing can be offensive and retreating can be defensive. Although Xiao Ran loves his daughter very much, when it comes to official career, party and government, this daughter is also a pawn that he can use.

Yu Gong, Xiao Ran is a good official for the country and the people, he also knows how to make profits for himself, and has a small calculation in his heart.In private, he listened to his daughter's sweet words, was biased and mean, and only had a harsh and cold face towards Xiao Ning.

He is a good official and a virtuous minister, but he is by no means a good father or husband.

But in general, he would not murder his own daughter for his official career, at most he would think about marriage.

As for Xiao Guang, it was completely different.

"Order to keep an eye on Xiao Wanying, and repay no matter what she does these days." Si Ruiyan's eyes tightened, and his heart became inexplicably hot when he thought of Xiao Guang.

Cheng Feng slapped his head, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I almost forgot, the news came from Rou Niang the day before yesterday, saying that Xiao Wanying planned to sneak out the day before yesterday, but was caught by the housekeeper of her house. At that time, it seemed that there was another man picking her up."

"Who is that man?" Si Ruiyan frowned suspiciously.

Xiao Wanying met the foreigner at Zhenghong Academy, and Xiao Guang imprisoned her in the mansion after he found out about it.

Xiao Wanying hasn't made any movement for so many days, why is she thinking of sneaking out of the house at this time, and there are other men to answer her.

"I don't know. The woman was discovered just as she was opening the door to leave. The man rode a fast horse and walked away when he found out that the matter had been revealed. Maybe he knew that he was kidnapping the daughter of the Xiao family, so he brought a Mask, no one can see what he looks like."

Cheng Feng shook his head helplessly. The brothers were ambushing in the distance, but they failed to catch him.

"Xiao Wanying is arrogant and conceited, she considers herself noble and famous, and she definitely doesn't like ordinary men." Si Ruiyan's eyes lightly moved.

It is the person who can be entrusted to her, or the person who has no ill will towards her but only has a chivalrous heart.Or it was that she had already secretly promised that she really wanted to leave with that man, but this possibility was almost impossible.

"Your Highness, does that woman know something?" Cheng Feng found that His Highness seemed to be paying special attention to Xiao Wanying.

When he married Miss Xiao, His Highness ordered people to pay more attention to her.Afterwards, they even met in secret. Although it was only two or three times, for His Highness, it was considered a lot.

Si Ruiyan's eyes were deep, and he said in a low voice: "A member of her mother clan once served as a maid of the Saintess clan. She knows more or less about those things."
