The truth is, the truth is that the truth is not known.

Mrs. Yuan was startled, "I don't know."

Du Wanchun continued, "That sum of money is not a small amount. If you find out, you and your whole family will be executed."

Mrs. Yuan's face turned pale with fear.

Du Wanchun continued, "Now, the only one who can save you is you."

"Madam Yuan, I heard that you have always wanted to divorce him, but he doesn't want to. Why not make good use of this opportunity?"

Madam Yuan was startled and asked with trembling lips, "Manager Du, what do you mean by this?"

Du Wanchun looked up at the back of the mansion and said, "If you find evidence of his corruption, go to the capital, and bring him to justice, wouldn't you be able to divorce him naturally?"

"But, in this way, won't I be implicated?" Madam Yuan asked in confusion.

Du Wanchun continued to smile, "You have made a contribution to the emperor's report and recovered so much silver. How can the emperor blame you? Maybe he will reward you and let you find another good husband."

Madam Yuan listened, gritting her teeth and hesitating.

Du Wanchun lowered her voice and said earnestly: "Madam Yuan, if it wasn't you who exposed this matter, someone else would have exposed it. If someone else had exposed it, you would not only not be able to escape, but your parents would also be implicated."

After hearing this, Madam Yuan raised her eyes slightly and suddenly realized.

Du Wanchun said nothing more and turned to leave the Yuan Mansion.

Madam Yuan also specially sent someone to send her back to Cheng'an County.

After Du Wanchun came back, the Yuan prefecture had not looked for her again. He had been tossed about the troubles at home and had no time to take care of the silver and gold.

Du Wanchun didn't tell anyone about the Yuan Mansion this time, but after being detained for a night, Zhou Ruiyuan still knew about it.

Zhou Ruiyuan was very angry and quickly sent someone to find the handle of the Yuan prefect. However, before the handle was taken out, he heard news from the capital.

It said that Madam Yuan Yan sued her husband, the Yuan prefect, for embezzling the silver for disaster relief from the court.

Being sued by his own wife was something that had never happened before.

The emperor himself was shocked. He dragged his exhausted body to the court. Seeing Madam Yuan showing all the evidence and talking freely, he admired this woman very much.

Later, after a discussion among a group of ministers, the Yuan family was confiscated and the prefect was exiled to the northern state.

Madam Yan, the former wife, made a meritorious report, so she was exempted from the crime and allowed to divorce.

The emperor had been confused all his life, but he handled this matter quickly and properly.

Soon Zhou Ruiyuan also got the news, which saved him from having to do it himself.

After the emperor dealt with the matter, he allocated the silver for disaster relief to Prefect Li.

Prefect Li was given such a great responsibility for the first time. He worked hard and was busy with disaster relief every day. The victims gradually had a way to survive.

When the emperor learned about this in the capital, he admired Prefect Li more and more. He planned to promote him in addition to Zhou Ruiyuan after a few months.

Maybe because he did a good deed, the emperor's health was better than before, and he wanted to do something else.

For example, he wanted to send a few concubines to Zhou Ruiyuan.

Originally, he planned to send these concubines to Zhou Feng, but when he thought of General Han, he was afraid again, so he decided to transfer these concubines to Zhou Ruiyuan.

These concubines were all left over from the last selection of concubines. Although their looks were not top-notch, they were still beautiful.

But it was strange that after the list of these concubines was selected, these people either fell ill or refused to surrender, and in the end none of them could go to Cheng'an County.

The emperor had no choice but to give up, but after this incident, he fell ill again.

He was so sick that he could always see the queen and a man going in and out, eating and sleeping together at night.

He was surprised in his dream, "Someone come! Someone come!"

The old eunuch came over with a bow, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

The emperor's face turned pale, and he grabbed the old eunuch and asked sternly, "Have you found her?"

The old eunuch was so scared that he trembled and asked, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what did you say?"

The emperor took his collar and threw him heavily, "I said the queen, have you found her?"

The old eunuch knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, it's almost time, Guard Liu and others heard that the queen is in the north, so they went to the north to look for her!"

The emperor calmed down after hearing this, and he walked down from the couch slowly as if he was in a trance.

"Hurry, help me find her quickly."

He felt that his health was getting worse and worse recently, and he was a little afraid that he would not be able to see her before he died.

Especially when he thought that she might marry another man, his chest felt as uncomfortable as if it was blocked by a stone.

.

The old eunuch sighed helplessly.

If he had known this, why did he do it in the first place?

It would be better to just think that the queen was dead.

In Changliu Village, Aunt Zhou was sewing clothes for the baby in Nan Fengling's belly. Maybe because she was too happy, she accidentally got her hand pricked by the needle.

"Ouch!"

She groaned softly, and then prepared to put her finger in her mouth.

The third prince, who was cleaning the yard in the house, heard the subtle sound and ran in immediately, "Zhou'er, Zhou'er, what's wrong with you? What happened to you just now?"
