It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

I remembered that he had been recuperating in Yaowang Valley for too long and was really craving for wine, so he drank a little secretly.

As a result, he was caught red-handed by Yuan Buwei, and during the period of recuperation, he was not allowed to eat any meat.

After my injury healed, I lost over 20 pounds.

Those were all the flesh he had raised inch by inch, and it made him feel so sorry for them.

Now she caught him again, with three girls in dishevel.

Chu Batian immediately explained: "They just helped me massage my back and legs. We didn't do anything wrong. Hey, Xiao Wei'er, are you hungry? Recently, two new cooks came and they are very good at making snacks. I asked them..."

"Uncle Chu, I have something to talk to you about. Can we find a place to talk?"

"Uh..." Seeing Yuan Buwei's serious expression, Chu Batian immediately became serious, "Let's go to the study, where it's safe to talk."

Chu Batian also asked all the guards on duty to retreat before closing the door.

“Xiao Wei’er, tell me, what happened? Do you need me to take the lead or come forward?”

"Uncle Chu, don't be nervous. I just want to ask you, do you know who is the master behind the Jade Building? Today, my second brother went there to eat and rescued a flower girl who was raped by Prince Liang. The flower girl said that there are many girls imprisoned in the Jade Building. She was arrested because she accidentally ran into Prince Liang's murder."

While Yuan Buwei was speaking, she kept observing Uncle Chu's expression. Seeing that he was shocked at first and then horrified, and looked completely out of touch with the situation, she smiled and asked, "Uncle Chu, you don't know?"

"It's such an injustice. Although I run a gambling house and I'm not clean, I absolutely would not do such a shameless business." Chu Batian suddenly felt wronged. "Xiao Wei'er, I treat you like half my own daughter, but you treat me like this. Am I that kind of person?"

"But your gambling house has also done a lot of bad things, right?"

"They owed me money and refused to pay it back. I just asked my men to teach them a lesson." Chu Batian almost knelt down in front of Yuan Buwei. "I swear to God that I have never been involved in such business. If you don't believe me, you can go to the front yard and take a look. There are many maids helping out. If the guests dared to touch them, I would have them beaten up and kicked them out. The money I earned was indeed dishonorable, but I never thought of bullying them. I am a man of great achievements. Why should I embarrass a little girl?"

“Uncle Chu, could you help me find out about the Jade Building?” Based on my understanding of Uncle Chu, if I ask him directly to check, he will definitely not be happy. After all, they are in the same territory and the other party is a powerful prince. But if I question him first, Uncle Chu will definitely agree to show that he has not done such a wicked thing.

"Of course..." Chu Batian stopped and looked at the smiling Yuan Buwei, then realized, "You little girl, you actually set a trap for me."

"Uncle Chu, don't you claim to be a strong supporter of the weak? Besides, you must be happy to do something like this that can accumulate virtue." Yuan Buwei began to flatter Chu Batian.

"Alright, alright, you want me to ask about the Empress Mu of the Jade Tower? The Liang Prince is in there, so it's probably him."

"Uncle Chu, no matter how stupid Prince Liang is, he is still a prince. He would not be so stupid as to abuse a flower girl when there are guests dining next door. It is obvious that someone is backing him up. As for those imprisoned women, can you check it out?"

Chu Batian's face immediately twisted into a circle: "You, you little girl, why do you like to cause trouble for me?"

"If you don't like it..." Yuan Buwei stood up, "I'll go find Young Master Xie. Xie is very powerful, and he should be able to find out."

"I will send someone to inquire now. You wait. The result will be out within an hour." Chu Batian and Young Master Xie were actually a little unhappy about the last incident. If Xiao Weier went to find Young Master Xie and he knew about it, he would definitely laugh at her. "Xiao Weier, accompany me for tea and snacks. The news will be here soon!"

Just as Chu Batian promised.

Less than an hour.

Yuan Duo, who received the news, walked in.

"Boss, Madam..." Yuan Duo bowed and said, "Twenty-five girls are imprisoned in the vegetable storage cellar in the backyard of the Jade Building. Two of them died last night, and now there are twenty-three left. As for the master, Queen Mu, Prince Liang should be the deputy, and as for the master, there are two suspects.

"Which two?"

"The Crown Prince and the Second Prince, but from what I've learned, I'm more inclined to think it's the Crown Prince."

Chu Batian stood up with a look of panic on his face: "Prince? How...how is this possible?"

"Boss, you have seen the world after all. You are frightened by the prince." Yuan Duo looked helplessly at Yuan Buwei who was in deep thought. "By the way, I heard that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple was investigating the missing girl case. It should be that the case came to Prince Liang. Prince Liang knew that Shaoqing Ye was fearless and trusted by the emperor, so he hired someone to kill him. Fortunately, Shaoqing Ye escaped. However, he was seriously injured and had to be recuperated at home. Therefore, Prince Liang could not find a chance to kill him, so he took out his anger on the flower girl."

In fact, on the way here, Yuan Buwei had already guessed what had happened.

In the previous life, after having a feud with King Liang, I thought he would definitely find the right opportunity to deal with me.

The next time I heard from him was the news of his death.

He died in the bed of a brothel girl.

Apart from the emperor, the only one who could take action against Prince Liang was the crown prince.

In other words, Prince Liang knew something he shouldn't have known, or he had crossed the line, making the Crown Prince unhappy, so he wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.

As for the Crown Prince, in his previous life, because of Jiang Weiming, he was often summoned to the East Palace to talk with the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess is a good person, but I always feel that there is an unremitting sadness between her brows.

After she gets familiar with me, she will say some inexplicable things.

I didn't understand it at the time, but now I think about it, she must know something about the prince, but as his wife, she must stand on the side of the prince.

The Crown Princess had no words to express her pain.

"So complicated?" Chu Batian stared at the thoughtful Yuan Buwei, "Little Wei'er, I advise you not to wade into muddy waters. When gods fight, little ghosts suffer. Moreover, Young Marquis Lu is not well yet. Lest Prince Liang set his sights on Wanning Marquis' Mansion."

"I didn't say I wanted to get involved. I just heard the young marquis mention it the other day. He said that he and Ye Shaoqing were good friends. I thought it was rare for the young marquis to tell me his true feelings, so I wanted to invite Ye Shaoqing to my home. As a result..."

"Ah? They know each other?"

"Well, according to the young marquis' temper, if he knew about this, he would definitely not sit idly by. And as his wife..."

"Okay, stop talking, leave this to me." Chu Batian interrupted Yuan Buwei and patted his chest, saying, "I can't afford to offend the prince, but saving a few girls and increasing Ye Shaoqing's performance is still okay."

Yuan Duo immediately rubbed his hands excitedly: "Then Boss, let me take care of this matter?"
