The people inside came out quickly. They thought that the people they arranged had succeeded, but when they opened the door, they saw soldiers.

They wanted to close the door, but it was too late. Lord Li led his men and rushed in.

Control several people.

Hearing the noise in the yard, a young man walked out of the room.

When he saw that the person coming was actually a government soldier, the man was startled and turned around to escape, but was stopped by Po Yun.

Bo Yun did a few somersaults and landed in front of the man. With a "swish", he put the sword on the young man's neck and asked, "Where are you going? Huh?"

"You, you, what are you going to do? You can't kill me." The young man had never seen such a scene before, and was immediately frightened and trembling.

Lord Li was greatly impressed when he saw Bo Yun's skillful movements.

It turns out that her martial arts skills are so high, no wonder she beat those people so badly just now.

An Qingqian followed the soldiers and walked in.

"What do you want to do? You are breaking into a private house!" the young man shouted, trying to scare away the people in front of him.

Bo Yun stared at the person in front of him with his eyes slightly narrowed. After thinking for a while, he remembered who he was.

"Come with me, otherwise I will kill you now." Bo Yun escorted the young man and walked straight to An Qingqian.

"Who are you?" An Qingqian didn't recognize the person in front of her.

"Miss, he is the son of Manager Zhang, named Zhang Yizhou." Bo Yun had met him when he went to find Manager Zhang for An Qingqian.

"Manager Zhang's son?" An Qingqian raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Yizhou didn't expect that Bo Yun actually recognized him, and was immediately shocked.

"Madam, do you know him?" Lord Li walked over.

"He is the son of a steward in the Marquis's mansion, named Zhang Yizhou. Sir Li, arrest him and bring him back for a thorough interrogation."

"Wait, wait, I'll tell you everything. I was bewitched and blinded by lard, so I came up with this idea. Please spare my life, Madam."

Zhang Yizhou knelt on the ground and immediately began to beg for mercy.

He cannot be taken to the government, as he still needs to study and take exams to gain fame!

"What do you want to do by kidnapping the lady?" Bo Yun asked.

"I heard from my father before that it was the Madam who took the money from the account, causing the shop to be unable to operate, and the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion asked Nanny Chen to come and ask for the money.

I was anxious for a moment, so I thought of kidnapping the lady and asking for some silver."

Seeing that he failed to tie up the person and attracted the soldiers, Zhang Yizhou panicked and had to tell everything.

"Does your father know about this?"

"I don't know, I don't know. I am the only one who knows about this. I only thought about getting the silver. I am so stupid. Please spare my life, my lord. Please spare my life, my lady!"

Zhang Yizhou burst into tears and kowtowed continuously, trying to ask An Qingqian to let him go.

"Master Li, now that the matter is clear, please take the person away."

An Qingqian did not doubt what Zhang Yizhou said.

She had met Manager Zhang and had dealt with him before. Manager Zhang was a very cunning and shrewd man and would never think of such a stupid idea.

Not to mention whether the kidnapping could be successful, just considering her identity, once the matter is reported to the police and the government knows about it and handles it, the Zhang family will definitely not be able to escape responsibility.

Maybe the whole family will be thrown into jail.

Manager Zhang would never do such a stupid thing.

I didn't expect Manager Zhang to be so cunning and his son to be so stupid.

"Madam, please spare my life. I have confessed everything. Can you please not arrest me?" Zhang Yizhou was scared to death. He didn't want to go to the government or go to jail.

"Take Lord Li away. You can interrogate and handle this matter carefully."

"Yes, ma'am, please rest assured. I will investigate this matter thoroughly." Lord Li bowed.

He then signaled the soldiers to take Zhang Yizhou away.

The two finally returned to the mansion, only to see Xue Wanxian and Zhang sitting at the gate of her yard.

An Qingqian paused, then quickly returned to normal.

"You're back?" Zhang rarely gave An Qingqian a good look.

Xue Wanxian's face was as pale as paper, and he looked haggard. "An Qingqian, we have something to discuss with you."

An Qingqian didn't know what the mother and son were going to do, and she didn't want to care about it, but suddenly she thought of what Prince Yong said today in Prince Xian's Mansion.

"come in."

After entering the yard, the two sat in the flower hall and watched the maids outside coming and going for a long time, but no one brought them tea or snacks.

Zhang was somewhat dissatisfied, but when she thought of Xue Wanxian's instructions just now, she had to swallow her dissatisfaction.

"I wonder what you want to talk to me about today?" An Qingqian glanced at the two of them.

"An Qingqian, I came here today because I hope that things between us can go back to the way they were before, and that what happened in the past few days can be treated as if it never happened."

Xue Wanxian forced a smile on his face.

"How is the Marquis' injury?" An Qingqian did not answer Xue Wanxian's question, but instead showed concern for him.

Unexpectedly, when Xue Wanxian heard this, his face changed and a fierce look flashed across his eyes, then quickly disappeared.

Today, An Qingqian clearly saw that I came to make peace, but she actually mentioned her injuries. Isn't this intentional to annoy me?

However, thinking of Prince Yong's threat, Xue Wanxian had to soften his expression and said, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. I'm much better now."

"That's good, Marquis. You are the sky of the Lin'an Marquisate. You can't have any problems with your health." An Qingqian seemed relieved when he heard this.

Xue Wanxian choked again when he heard this.

If he was really the boss of the Marquis' Mansion, how could he allow An Qingqian to mess things up?

Now Prince Yong has been forced to come out and warn him personally, telling him to get along well with An Qingqian, otherwise he will never let him go.

Her concern seemed more like sarcasm.

Zhang could hear the hidden meaning in An Qingqian's words. She wanted to interrupt An Qingqian and refute her, but was stopped in time by Xue Wanxian's eyes.

Xue Wanxian didn't want to be angry anymore, so he decided to get straight to the point.

"I came here today because I have something to tell you." Xue Wanxian said, and gave a look to Nanny Chen beside him.

Although Nanny Chen was unwilling, she still stepped forward and placed the treasury token and account book in front of An Qingqian.

"Here are the account books of the shops under the mansion's name, as well as the key to the treasury. It is better to hand over the power of the mansion's finances to you."

"My Lord, this is inappropriate. You know that I don't handle the affairs of the mansion well. Since the old lady is already the housekeeper, why should she hand it over to me?"

"Mother is old, and besides, you've been handling things for the past few years, so it's more appropriate for you to come."

Upon hearing this, An Qingqian didn't say anything else. Instead, he picked up the account book and flipped through a few pages at random.

"My Lord, my dowry is not much. I'm afraid it won't last for a few more years." An Qingqian said with a smile.
