Cen San entered the study, Yuan Jin, Cen Yi and the rest were indeed there.

After bowing, he opened his mouth and said with a heavy expression, "Your Highness, we have found the person who secretly helped the Xu Zhi Fu."

"Who?" Yuan Jin's expression did not change, but his voice was slightly heavy. Especially after seeing Cen San's serious expression, a sharp glint flashed past his eyes.

"Yes, yes …" It's Master Dou. "

When Mo Weinong, who had just arrived at the entrance of the study room heard this, she could not help but be stunned.

Dou Ying?

The person who was colluding with the Xu Zhi Fu was actually right under their noses.

He … Betrayed the Prince Yan.

As expected, Yuan Jin's expression became cold, his fingers gently caressed the side of the cup and did not say a single word.

The atmosphere in the study room instantly dropped to ice, and Cen Yi and the rest did not dare to make any sound.

Only Mo Weinong, who was standing at the door, reached out her hand to caress her chin as if she had thought of something.

Towards the people used by the Prince Yan, she would never comment much. Even if Dou Ying's daughter, Dou Qin, had that kind of thought, and even used a method that made her feel extremely disdainful, to deal with Guan Yuan and her.

However, Mo Weinong had never considered this to be part of her plans. After all, they had only interacted each other a few times.

Even if he wanted to marry his daughter to the Prince Yan, he would do it openly in front of her.

But who would have thought … So, as expected, there was still a father and a daughter, right?

Father and daughter are both scheming people.

"Your Highness …" Do you want this subordinate to apprehend Dou Ying and ask him why he betrayed the Duke? " Cen San clenched his teeth and his voice came out from the study room.

Yuan Jin placed the cup in his hand to the side, and only spoke in a low voice, "There's no need, this king has already sent someone to look for the treasury Dou Ying used to store the silver in."

Cen San was startled, "Your highness suspected Dou Ying since long ago?"

"Yes." Yuan Jin did not say much either. Although he suspected, it was just that he did not confirm.

But now, he was actually colluding with the Xu Zhi Fu to embezzle money for disaster relief.

Cen San did not say anything else, and only thought of secretly teaching Dou Ying a lesson.

Those who dared to betray the king, those who dared to become traitors, definitely could not be forgiven.

Dou Ying, who was sitting in Jian Jia Yuan Garden also had a heavy expression and a depressed heart.

Dou Qin looked at him strangely, and personally poured a cup of water for him, and then asked: "Father, why are you looking like that? "But didn't sleep well last night?"

"Ling'er, your dad has been feeling uneasy these past two days, as if something is about to happen. Last night, we had a nightmare."

Dou Qin sat in front of him, "Does father care too much about Guan Yuan? Was it because he was worried that Prince Yan would blame our family because of Young Noble Luo? "

"No." Dou Ying sighed, she patted his chest, and that feeling of tightness in his chest returned.

"Father and daughter, tell me, did something happen?" "Daughter can help father share a little."

Dou Ying raised her head, looked at her daughter who was deeply concerned for him, and thought about how he was kind and graceful, grew up under her care since she was young, and didn't have a proud, arrogant, or luxurious temper.

Recently, she had earned quite a bit of praise by cooking porridge in the city, making people think of her as a living Bodhisattva.

So sensible and smart, maybe …

Thinking about that, Dou Ying waved her hand, sending all the servants in the house away.

After the door closed, Dou Qin then asked curiously, "Father?"

"Jin, you, you have to help dad."

Seeing that he was extremely anxious, Dou Qin could not help but be shocked, and anxiously said in a low voice: "Father, don't be like this, if you have something to say, let's talk, any daughter who can help will definitely help."

"Then, marry the Prince Yan."

Dou Qin was startled, "Father, what did you say?"

"You have to marry to the Prince Yan in order for Father to be able to escape this calamity." Dou Ying said, her head drooping, her fingers trembling, as though all her hope had fallen on her daughter.

When Dou Qin heard the words "marry the Prince Yan", she could not help but smile slightly, as she felt a little happy.

However, he quickly frowned again, "Father, please make it clear."

"I, I, I was useless. I was greedy, so I decided to follow Xu Zhi Fu and get rich for the disaster." Dou Ying's heart was sour, when he raised his head, he saw his daughter's shocked expression, and immediately explained, "But father is only greedy a little, truly, compared to Xu Zhi Fu, father is only greedy a little."

"Father." Dou Qin suddenly stood up, and stared at him with disbelief in her eyes, "You, why are you so muddled?"

"Father is now regretting his decision. But, that Xu Zhi Fu is not willing to let me go. He has threatened me, if I do not protect him and hide his whereabouts, once he is captured, my father will be found out as well. " He had originally planned to send people to kill Xu Zhi Fu, but Xu Zhi Fu said that he had evidence on him that he could hand to a trusted aide to hide. If something were to happen to him, Dou Ying would not have a good ending.

Therefore, he could only be threatened by the Xu Zhi Fu and hide inside the old couple's home. He could only wait until Prince Yan left, then send his out of the Hauzhou City.

However, the Prince Yan seemed to insist on finding the Xu Zhi Fu, as the search got more intense. or even more recently, he didn't need to intervene at all, which caused Dou Ying to become anxious and uneasy.

"Therefore, Ling'er, only if you marry Prince Yan and I become her father-in-law, will he think of a way to protect me."

Dou Qin's expression became somewhat pale. If her own father did such an outrageous thing, then wouldn't the good impression that she had left in front of the Prince Yan disappear into thin air?

Why was her father holding back?

Dou Qin bit her lips, as her heart also started to become restless. Hearing Dou Ying's urging, she couldn't help but raise her voice, "What Brother Yue? Father, have you forgotten that Prince Yan still has a fiancee in the capital, and he has a Miss Tang by his side? Who is your daughter? "

After he finished speaking, he noticed that his tone was a bit heavier.

Dou Qin closed her eyes and slowly exhaled, "Father, what I mean is, with Miss Tang here, your daughter will not even be able to get close to the prince."

When Dou Ying heard this, he felt that there was hope, but she couldn't get close, so she didn't say no.

He became excited and hurriedly said, "That is simple. As long as Miss Tang is swindled away, and Father can do something with the Prince's food, when the two of you cook the cooked rice, you will naturally marry into the Prince Yan's Mansion."

"No, in this way, the Prince will only feel guilty towards the Miss Tang, and will only treat her with even more care. On the contrary, they will doubt us, and when that time comes, as long as Miss Tang brags what they hear, our family will be finished. "

"Then what method do you have?"

Dou Qin slightly narrowed her eyes, her fingers tightly grabbing onto the handkerchief. After a long while, she finally said in a low voice, "Father, please do me a favor."
