Ye Chengwei's simple words made Wu Yue, who had been silent all this time, remember something:
"Brother Chengwei, speaking of the Qian family, Your Highness still remembers that when I accompanied you and several princes to visit the garden in Jinling City more than ten years ago, a woman suddenly ran into the garden. She was very beautiful. For displeasure, he also said that she was a distant relative in Prince Yun's mansion. At that time, my father asked me to investigate the whereabouts of this woman, but it didn't take long for her to disappear. But I can be sure that Prince Yun's feelings for this woman are not simple. "

"Ayue, I still have some memories when you say that."

Zhu Zhiye finally had an epiphany, and looked at Rujin silently: "In this way, the cousin of Rujin that we met at the inn earlier may really be the illegitimate son of my imperial brother."

At this point, his complexion gradually became ugly: "And those assassins did not come for A Yue, but for this king."

"Your Highness is really smart."

Ye Chengwei finally showed a gratified smile.

After everyone said so much, he finally understood.

"But this king has no intention of meddling in the affairs of the second emperor brother. Even he and brother Fu Wang have colluded with each other in the court for many years and I have turned a deaf ear to it. Why would he do this to me?"

King Ning couldn't believe that he would become a thorn in their eyes even after being beaten to death.

Hua Rujin didn't know how to comfort him at this time, the so-called authorities are obsessed with onlookers, King Ning is in the royal family and doesn't know the people's hearts are sinister, but he knows it very well.

It is said that the royal family is ruthless, for the sake of power, how can a contender like King Yun who is trapped in the whirlpool of power struggle care about brotherhood.

Not to mention being of a different mother.

"Since Young Master Ye already has feasible clues, why not follow his arrangement on this matter?"

She turned her gaze to Wu Yue and motioned.

Wu Yue and King Ning looked at each other, and then looked at Ye Chengwei, pleading sincerely: "Then brother Lao Chengwei, I hope the murderer can be arrested and brought to justice as soon as possible."

"must."

Ye Chengwei naturally wanted to catch the murderer earlier, after all, Tang Haoran was also an official of the imperial court, and his death was unclear and he couldn't explain it.

After waiting for the brothers and sisters of the Wu family to accompany King Ning to leave first, Hua Rujin and Ye Chengwei also left the scene of the murder.

Walking on the path in the forest, the two were silent for a long time, Ye Chengwei suddenly turned sideways, and said solemnly: "In the days when I am not here, Miss Laohua will take care of my mother."

"It's just a little effort, Mr. Ye, you don't have to be polite."

Hua Rujin also glanced at him, and said with a faint smile: "I heard that Mr. Ye has been transferred to the provincial government, so he must be leaving Jiangling City in a few days, right?"

"That's what happened."

Ye Chengwei paused and nodded hesitantly.

Thinking of her working for Wu Yue now, I felt somewhat lost.

"I thought that Ms. Hua would go to Xunyan's mansion to work for Xunyan, but I never thought that she would become the staff of the new county magistrate. She is really talented and appreciated by Bole."

Listening to his tone, Hua Rujin always felt a little yin and yang.

"Master Ye is absurd, but he is just asking for food for his livelihood."

Hua Rujin also stared at him fixedly, her eyes sank: "But Mr. Ye is now promoted to the provincial government, and there is no shortage of capable people around him to help. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the little girl to work with Mr. Ye."

"That's hard to say."

Ye Chengwei suddenly forced out a wicked smile: "If I forcibly ask for someone from Wuzhi County, do you think he will disobey the provincial government's inspector?"

"you dare."

Hua Rujin felt that he was a little arrogant now.

"I can even point my sword at people in the Inspectorate, and there is nothing else I dare not do."

Ye Chengwei had long heard that she was getting close to King Ning recently, and for some reason, he always felt a little sour in his heart: "The person I want, I am afraid that His Majesty will not be able to stop him."

After finishing speaking, he directly took out a piece of official document from his bosom and handed it to her: "This is your Majesty's handbook. From today onwards, you will be the female governor of our provincial government's procuratorate, and you will be in charge of investigating criminal names."

"What?"

Hua Rujin stared blankly at the official document in his hand, showing a look of astonishment: "According to the governor of the inspector, he is an official of the eighth rank of the imperial court. Your Majesty will give it if you say so?"

"Why, you dare not take on this important task?"

Ye Chengwei finally begged for this grace, and was very dissatisfied with her reaction.

"Not at all."

Hua Rujin curled her lips resentfully: "If you become a female governor, will you still be able to do private work in the future?"

Although she has become a female official, she is not expected to be in the officialdom after all, and she will not be so frank when she wants to earn money in the future.

"No."

Ye Chengwei answered decisively.

She also knew that this kind of petty official's salary was meager, and she was afraid that it would be difficult to do what she wanted, so she quickly added: "I heard that Wuzhi County asked you to be a staff member and gave you 500 yuan for two years. Well, let me add some more for you, how about adding a zero?"

"Ten taels?"

Hua Rujin was shocked again.

Although he is now a member of the third rank of the imperial court, but his annual salary is only a few hundred taels, it sounds like a child's play to let himself be his staff at his own expense.

"Master Ye, don't make fun of me."

Hua Rujin said with some uncertainty.

Ye Chengwei was unequivocal, and immediately asked Ting An to take out the prepared 5000 taels of silver notes and hand them over to her, and said in a deep voice, "After Tang Haoran's case is closed, you can go to the provincial capital with me."

Hua Rujin stared at the thick stack of bank notes in her hand, and couldn't believe her eyes.

Also worried that he took out all the assets of the Ye family to convince herself, she persuaded with extreme unease: "Actually, Mr. Ye doesn't have to be like this. Since it is His Majesty's order, I will go to the provincial government."

Anyway, her arms can't hold back her thighs, and now that the boat is sinking, she can't resist the order.

"Of course Miss Hua can't be wronged."

Ye Chengwei smiled warmly at her: "You don't have to worry about money matters, you just need to do your work with all your heart."

Ting An also added with a smile on the side: "The most important thing my son lacks is silver. This time, His Majesty also rewarded you with a hundred taels of gold and ten thousand taels of silver, besides."

"Speak up."

Not allowing the little book boy to finish speaking, Ye Chengwei stared at him coldly.

Stopped the talkative little bookboy, looked back at Hua Rujin with a warm gaze, and said with a smile: "That's the matter, you don't need to worry about Uncle Ling, I will take care of you before I leave." I will give you a satisfactory explanation."

"Thank you."

Hua Rujin bid farewell to him, got into her own carriage, thinking about the 5000 taels silver note that Zhuangyuan Lang gave her, she was still puzzled.

According to his nature, since he opened his mouth, he would have to spend 5000 taels of silver every year. Even the emperor's reward was not enough to support this expense all the time. Where did this guy get so much money?

She really can't figure it out.
