After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 317 Previous Dynasty

Xu Li looked at the portrait that Xiao Chiye was almost done with: "So this person is the orphan of the previous prince?"

Qing Feng shook his head gently: "I don't know, there is no record of their portraits. I only know that the late emperor did not kill the former prince and let him live."

Everyone looked at the portrait on the table. If this was the case, this person was most likely a child of the royal family of the previous dynasty.

Things that could not be explained before are now explained bit by bit.

Xia Wanniang felt a headache: "If he is really from the previous dynasty, then how many people have they hidden for so many years, and how much of the Great Xia is his influence is hard to say."

Everyone's expression became solemn. They didn't expect that the person behind the scenes they caught this time would be such a hot person. How should they deal with this matter?

Xu Li saw that no one was talking: "What should we do now?"

Xiao Chiye didn't say anything, but just continued to finish the unfinished painting.

Qingfeng looked at everyone and said, "The road we are on now is not easy. If the country goes to the previous dynasty, we might all be finished."

Xu Li's eyes widened: "Are you kidding?"

Qing Feng rolled his eyes at him and said, "To be honest, Da Xia originally belonged to the Pu family. It was snatched away by the late emperor."

Xia Wanniang smiled and said, "So what? I only care about who can give me a stable life. It doesn't matter to me who is in power."

She paused here and said, "But it definitely couldn't be Pu Xingyu."

Everyone looked at her: "Why?"

Xiao Chiye finished the last stroke: "He gives me a very cold feeling. Once he gets that position, there will be no peace in Daxia anymore."

Xia Wanniang nodded: "I feel the same way. This man is very scary. If he is allowed to take the position, I'm afraid there will be mountains of corpses and seas of blood."

Qingfeng looked at the completed portrait. It was an absolutely beautiful woman with a pair of terribly gloomy eyes, like a devil from the abyss, wanting to drag people into hell.

Just seeing the portrait gave him this feeling, and if he saw him in person, he would probably feel even stronger.

He knew that Xiao Chiye's painting skills were not bad, so even if the portrait was not 100% similar, it was probably at least 50% similar.

Qiu He laughed: "It's getting more and more interesting."

Xia Wanniang looked at the increasingly unruly man and asked, "Master Qiu, are you not afraid of death now?"

"The only thing he'll leave when he dies is a scar the size of a bowl. Do you think his influence in Luo City will leave after today?" Qiu He didn't care at all.

Qingfeng looked at Xia Wanniang and said, "You have played a good hand. You have monopolized the most profitable business in Luocheng, and all the officials in Luocheng are your people. What else can he do? Stay and deliver information to you?"

Xia Wanniang felt a little regretful after hearing what he said: "Now that you say that, I feel that I was careless. I shouldn't have forced him to leave. I'm afraid that he will hide in that rat hole again. It will be difficult to find him next time."

Xiao Chiye: "He's constantly moving now. Even if he wants to hide, he'll be exposed. Why don't we just plug up his rat holes one by one?"

Xu Li immediately perked up: "Tell me quickly, what should we do next."

Xiao Chiye glanced at him and said, "You're doing nothing. The highest-ranking official among us is a general in Banyan. You're just a county magistrate. What else do you want to do?"

Qingfeng nodded: "Forcing him to leave Luocheng now is already the best outcome. We have to be careful in planning our future. We don't know who his people are in the officialdom now, so we can't act rashly."

Xia Wanniang nodded and said, "We are still short of a protective umbrella, so before the autumn harvest, everyone should keep a low profile. Everything will be discussed after I meet the person above."

Everyone reached a consensus and swallowed what happened today.

Qingfeng kept Yangping, Yin Yuanxun, Diao Yongfu and Qiu He.

Xia Wanniang put the portrait into the space and said, "Let's go and see the children."

When Xiao Chiye and his companions returned to the private room, the first puppet show had already ended and the second one would not begin until fifteen minutes later.

A group of children in the private room were chattering away, their eyes full of excitement.
