Distressed Young Woman Transmigrates: Wangfei Who Defies the Imperial Edict Chapter 266: Changes (7)

"But my uncle has always been at odds with the Yang family. The Yang family tried to rely on my uncle to bid for many times but failed. How could my uncle suddenly let them down this time? The winning bid this time should be an accident."

"I've talked to your uncle about this matter. Mrs. Xiao stole the bidding materials and informed the Yang family, and the Yang family won the bid. This kind of nepotism caused your uncle to be involved, and the royal family hates courtiers With connections with the people of the Northern Dynasties, even if it is speculative, it will be severely investigated, not to mention the failure of the flood project, so your uncle's current situation is very delicate."

Xiao Yao's lips were pale.

Collude with the people of the Northern Dynasties is the most taboo thing for the royal family, even a little involvement will result in a death penalty. The royal family has always adhered to the principle that one can kill one thousand by mistake and not let one go.

Isn't uncle's situation precarious?

However, the emperor did not hand it over to the Ministry of Officials to obtain evidence through formal channels, investigate and convict him.

It can be seen from this that the emperor still has leeway, not to kill them all.

The emperor said that he would not pamper her again, which indirectly meant that he would not let his uncle go for his own sake. Then he has been undecided about his uncle, and who is his target.

Yan Chi saw her pale and flustered face, with tears in her eyes, and bursts of pain in her heart. Seeing her sad, he felt even more uncomfortable than her.

How can he bear to see her cry, he wants to make her happy forever.

"Don't be afraid, the emperor has no intention of disposing of your uncle, I have already thought of a way to save him." Yan Chi took her into his arms, gently wiped away her tears, his tone full of confidence.

"Really? Have you figured out a way?" Xiao Yao raised his face in surprise.

"Yes, you have to believe me, I said that I will protect you and your family, how can you just watch your cousin get wronged." Yan Chi smiled and nodded her nose, "Be good, don't cry."

"But..." Xiao Yao was inexplicably uneasy, "What are you going to do, will it hurt you?"

Yan Chi smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, it's just a profit transaction, we can only retire from the position of the richest man in advance."

Xiao Yao's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "You mean to tell the emperor that you are willing to give up the important business of the Yan family in exchange for my uncle's life."

"Girl, you're smart. Anyway, we will let go sooner or later, and we will not lose."

Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but did not notice the flash of determination in Yan Chi's eyes.
