Chapter 244: Zhao's Father and Son Go to Jail
"Dad, you should stop thinking about it. Since I already know what happened, I can't just leave you here. It's okay if my sister is gone. I will send someone to check for her, but don't hold out hope. If she hides on purpose, it will be hard to find her. But how will I explain it to the royal family when they come? Dad, you should think about it carefully."
"It's probably difficult for us to escape now. They were there when my sister ran away. I'm afraid they know about it now and are keeping an eye on our Zhao Mansion." Zhao Chengyin knows the pros and cons of the time.
"To be honest, we originally thought that her fiancé, whom she had chosen since childhood, died at sea. Now we have news that she has gone to find her fiancé. Anyway, Coco is not betrothed to any of them. No one can do anything to her if she has not made a promise. How much of our property has been transferred? The important docks, land deeds, house deeds, all have been transferred, and the same goes for banknotes."
"Dad, have you made your plans?"
"Ah" a sigh, infinite desolation
Two days later, the Zhao Mansion was sealed off, and the Zhao father and son were detained! The once powerful and unrivaled imperial merchant has now become a street rat that everyone wants to kill!
In the luxurious hall, a woman in a waist-baring dress has a graceful figure and a light veil on her face, giving people a mysterious and hazy feeling. Her ink-like hair sprays down as she shakes, and there is infinite spring scenery...
The man sitting at the top has a handsome appearance, and looks like a gentle and elegant scholar, but he exudes the aura of a superior. At this moment, he is being fed grapes and fine wine by the beauties on his left and right. He is so comfortable!
"The dancers from the Western Regions are different from those in the Central Plains. Their revealing costumes are so sexy that they can make people feel distracted. I wonder if His Royal Highness likes them?" Chu Yinan bowed. There was also a woman sitting next to him.
"Master Chu knows what I like."
"It's worth it even if I'm a little tired if I can please His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Chu Yinan has been trying hard to please His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and contacted him privately recently. He finally gained his trust. He searched for all traces just to send ironclad evidence to his ally, Prince Xiao. As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will?
"You will work for me from now on. I will not treat you unfairly. You can be my second brother's person on the surface. Do you understand?" The prince looked at Chu Yinan with lustful eyes.
Chu Yinan knew in his heart that this was to make him a double-sided undercover? If he hadn't done a few things against the Second Prince, he wouldn't have trusted him so easily. The Second Prince said the same thing. It was really interesting!
"Your Majesty, I understand." Chu Yinan sat down to enjoy the dance, and the beauty beside him poured him wine.
"Cousin, what happened? Why was the Zhao Mansion sealed?" Wen Xi and Su Jinxiu were in a quiet private room in the restaurant.
"I've also been asking around. My uncle and father don't know. I'm afraid my uncle had anticipated this day would come, so he wanted to marry my cousin off early. I'm afraid he's touched something he shouldn't have touched," Su Jinxiu said.
"Let's find a way to help them!" Wen Xi looked downstairs with empty eyes. A figure appeared in his eyes. He looked at the familiar figure, feeling excited and happy. But when he could see the woman's face clearly, he was greatly disappointed and his joy was in vain!
Yes, she should be in Jiangnan at this time, why is she in Beijing?
"What? What did you see?" Su Jinxiu asked
"My eyes are blurry." Wen Xi shook his head
"Well, I'll go home and ask my uncle and father, and ask them to ask around in the court. Father and mother will definitely find a way to visit them in prison. I'll go with them and come back to tell you." Su Jinxiu wiped his mouth after eating.
"Um"
Su Jinxiu left, leaving Wen Xi sitting in the empty box.
The "Master" Qingliu appears
"Go check where the Zhao father and son are being held tonight and ask if they need any help?" Wen Xi didn't turn around, only looked downstairs.
"Yes"
"Miss, are you staying at the hotel?" the waiter asked
"Yes, I want a room upstairs, the innermost, the quietest." The woman paid the silver and followed the waiter upstairs.
"I'll come down for dinner, don't disturb me during the meal." The woman gave the tip and the waiter happily said okay.
The woman sat down and looked in the mirror. She was so ugly, with big buck teeth.
Soon a man came in through the window.
"Did you find anything useful?"
"The master and the young master are imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. No visitors are allowed. There is no crime for the time being. The young master and the master have suffered a lot. People from the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion are investigating..."
"I'm afraid it's Wen Xi and my cousin. Wen Xi is afraid that Jiujiu will be sad, and my cousin is afraid that my aunt will be sad, but..."
"Master, I feel sorry for you." The man kneeling on one knee had tenderness in his eyes.
"Alright, you're the only one who talks sweet words. Hurry up and find a way to get in. Does my brother need my help? Stay away from my dad and tell him to keep his mouth shut, or I'll tear him to pieces."
"Yes" the figure disappeared
The woman took off her disguise, revealing her pretty and charming appearance. She was Zhao Keke, who was supposed to elope with her childhood sweetheart in Jiangnan!
"Huh, I almost can't breathe. Why is this layer of skin so tight? There is still hope as long as there is no crime. How many things have you hidden from me, Dad? Zhao Chengyin, wait until I see you, I will chop you to pieces, and you'd better not know about it..." The human skin mask in Zhao Keke's hand was almost torn to pieces by her.
"That was a close call, it was almost broken." Zhao Keke quickly laid the human skin mask on the dressing table, spread it out, checked it and breathed a sigh of relief to see that it was not damaged.
At the same time, she was thinking about the report just now that Brother Wen Xi was also inquiring about the affairs of the Zhao Mansion. Would he be a little reluctant to leave her? Would he be uncomfortable with having her around? That shouldn't be the case. He should be helping to inquire just for Jiujiu!
"Jiujiu, I miss you so much. If it were you, would you have killed that man directly?" Zhao Keke sat on the stool and put her legs on the stool, curled up, hugged her legs, and her tears dripped on her legs, soaking a large area.
The people in Ganzhou County lined up in an orderly manner to receive food. Even though the weather was getting hotter, no one rushed them and there was no disaster.
Wen Jiu smiled and registered and distributed a bag to each person, while Mr. Xu on the side was sweating as he handed out bags to the people one by one.
Wen Jiu has seen everything recently. He almost always agrees to her requests. She still has no idea what his purpose is, but as long as it is for the good of the people and her brother can breathe a sigh of relief, then she thinks it's nothing. At worst, she can kill him if she finds something wrong.
"County Lady, can you take your hand and wipe the sweat off my eyes? My eyes are stung by the sweat and they hurt." Mr. Xu closed his eyes and was still groping.
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Xu. We'll be fine if we wait a while," said the person waiting for the distribution.
Wen Jiu was not at all pretentious. She took out a handkerchief to wipe it for him. Don't delay anything. She wanted to finish it early as she still wanted to eat some smoothies she had prepared. It was too hot. The pond over her brother's place should be almost dry by now!
"Thank you, County Lord," he took the handkerchief and continued to wipe his neck.
"Look, the handkerchief is all black. I'll just wipe it for you." It was a good day, but the handkerchief was scratched black by his claws.
