The grand scheme of things cannot go forward.

Jiang Yingcheng tenaciously stood up from the corner, reached out to pat the dust on his body, and looked around.

[Which one is the best person to take advantage of~]Jiang Yingcheng's voice is full of cunning.

"!!!"

The ministers who were watching all the way turned around quickly, looking at the sky and the earth, but refused to look back.

They are afraid that if they look at each other, they will be captured by Little Princess.

[Ah!]

The several ministers gathered together shook unconsciously, and each looked at Jiang Yingcheng's movements with their peripheral vision.

Little Princess moved!

Little Princess is running in their direction!!

Little Princess... Go past them and continue running forward?!

Several people breathed a long sigh of relief and turned their heads at the same time, wanting to witness the birth of their enemy.

"Lord Yuan!" Jiang Yingcheng ran and waved, "It's me Lord Yuan!"

[It's your favorite Chengcheng!]

Yuan Liangping was not far away from them, so he naturally heard those words of "looking for someone to take advantage of". When he turned around, he felt like he was about to cry without tears.

"Little Highness," Yuan Liangping said in a hard voice, "What important matter do you have to see me?"

Yuan Liangping still has the last glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Please, say you just want to say hello.

"Chengcheng hasn't been to the Academy for two days," Jiang Yingcheng smiled shyly and said with a twist, "I'm addicted to studying~"

Yuan Liangping:"..."

The ministers eavesdropping not far away. "..."

Do you believe this yourself?!

Jiang Yingcheng naturally doesn't believe it either.

After she said these words, her cheeks immediately turned crimson, as if she had applied the peach blossom makeup that has become popular recently.

Yuan Liangping didn't know what she meant by this move, but he had a sense of deceit and did not answer easily. He only muttered, "I just happened to have a copy of "Hundred Family Surnames" with me. Little Highness If you need it, I..."

At the right moment, he made a gesture of rummaging in his sleeves, pretending to be looking for the book "Hundred Family Surnames" that he didn't even have on him.

Jiang Yingcheng stood there with a dull expression, raised her little face, and looked at Lord Yuan who was stopped by her with empty eyes.

All she could think about was how could there be such a bad adult in this world who actually wanted her to keep studying even when she went out to play.

"No, no need," Jiang Yingcheng stumbled, "Chengcheng wants to learn something different today!"

Her toes were scratching back and forth on the snow in front of her, and her voice was small. "Chengcheng suddenly wants to know how to write some new words. Can Lord Yuan write it for Chengcheng to read?"

Yuan Liangping Hearing this, he lowered his head and looked at the little guy in front of him silently.

The Dagger Revealed on the Map, right?

You can't pretend anymore, can you?!

He didn't answer, but Jiang Yingcheng didn't want to just let go of the big fish that had reached his mouth. He tentatively reached out and took Yuan Liangping's hand, and with just a little force, he pulled him away from the place.

Yuan Liangping is filled with despair.

What can he do? He can't put a sack on Her Majesty the Princess.

The two of them asked Tan Residence's maid for some paper and pen, and spent a long time in the corner mumbling and making gestures.

After the birthday banquet, Tan Wenhan personally went to the door to see off the last colleague. When he turned back, he was met with a whole row of inquiring eyes.

"..." Tan Wenhan dismissed everyone and only brought Mrs. Tan and Madam Zhang to the ancestral hall, "Let's take a look at this."

He took out a stack of very thick Xuan Paper from his cuffs, which Little Princess thought he had stuffed into him when he wasn't paying attention.

Madam Zhang had many questions in his mind, but he still followed Chancellor Tan's words and slowly opened the stack of letters in front of him.

What comes into view is Xuan Paper that has been cut into small pieces one by one. Each piece has only one word on it, which has been rearranged and put on a new piece of paper.

There were a bunch of names on it, and she was so familiar with every name.

Only on the last one, it says--

"If we don't drive them out of the house within three days, I will definitely make you look good?" Madam Zhang read directly.

The handwriting is elegant, the tone is arrogant, and a strong sense of dissonance comes across.

This is...

Threatening letter?!

Madam Zhang's eyes did not show much fear, but rather a sense of novelty.

"Who would be so bold as to threaten Prime Minister Chancellor's Residence's head?" She casually placed the stack of paper on top of Long Table at hand, lowered her head and thought about how to speak next.

In contrast, she was still more concerned about what she heard from Little Princess's voice about Cailü's theft.

And, what Little Princess said at the birthday banquet, about Spy...

Madam Zhang suddenly raised his head and picked up the pile of letters again.

Little Princess mentioned in their hearts during the birthday party that dozens of Spy were inserted into their prime Chancellor's Residence.

She rummaged through the rows of small characters, and sure enough she saw several names that had been mentioned individually by Little Princess before!

"This, this is..." Madam Zhang's voice trembled slightly, and his expression was no longer as calm as before.

Tan Wenhan nodded heavily. "Little Princess stuffed it over."

Madam Zhang's breathing was stagnant.

If this is the case, then it is self-evident what is recorded in this letter.

What kind of threatening letter is this? It is clearly a life-saving straw that pulls them Tan Residence out of a predicament surrounded by wolves!

"Well, then Little Princess was in the courtyard before, under the pretense of being tripped by someone..." She was still confused at the time. Since Your Majesty cared so much about Little Princess, why did she specifically tell them not to come and disturb her after she fell so many times?

Tan Wenhan nodded slightly, confirming Madam Zhang's suspicion.

This is indeed a threatening letter, but the person threatening them is not the person who sent the letter!

Madam Zhang's hand holding the letter couldn't stop shaking.

If the names recorded in this letter are all Spy sent from various places, then what kind of dangerous environment have they been living in these years?!

Fortunately, none of them Tan Residence had any second thoughts, otherwise, they would have died many times!

Tan Wenhan looked at his wife's frightened appearance and thought for a moment, but still did not tell her the truth about the Zhang Shiliu incident.

My concubine has always been at odds with Madam Zhang, so it's better not to cause any trouble for her.

Madam Zhang stood up suddenly and said bitterly, "I'm going to drive all these people out of the house right now!"

"I'm not busy," Tan Wenhan also stood up and interrupted her softly, "My colleagues from all walks of life have given me such a big gift. If I, Tan Residence, don't return the favor, wouldn't it look like we have lost etiquette."

Your Majesty once said that corrupt officials cannot hear Little Princess's voice. In this way, they Upright Officials have a natural advantage.

Tan Wenhan walked slowly to the bedside and looked up at the vast expanse of white snow.

A faint smile appeared on his lips.

The future court will definitely be very interesting.
