Huang Xinxin's heart was in his throat.

Even if he had a hundred times more courage, he really wouldn't dare to sell this adopted daughter of the Duke's Mansion!

What kind of family is the Duke's Mansion? Even his father is afraid of it! If they do this, all nine generations of their family will be in danger!

He walked quietly towards Song Wu, intending to carry her back by the waist when she wasn't paying attention.

However, when he walked in front of Song Wu, he realized that something was wrong!

She touched him with her delicate fingers, and she couldn't move! His entire scalp began to numb!

At this time, Tonggui also couldn't control his steps and rushed to the Dali Temple.

"Master, this is bad! The young master has abducted Miss Song, the adopted daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and brought her to Hongliu River. Miss Song asked me to report it to the police!"

Someone from the Dali Temple asked, "Who is your master?"

Tonggui didn't want to say it, but his mouth wouldn't listen to him. "It's Huang Zhiwang, Master Huang!"

Huang Zhiwang came out in a hurry, and many of his colleagues came out soon after.

When Huang Zhiwang heard that the person his son had abducted was the adopted daughter of the Duke of Anguo, he was so scared that his blood ran cold.

The key point is that Tonggui was shouting loudly at the gate of Dali Temple, and now many people heard it.

But his colleagues deliberately stayed away and watched the show as Huang Zhiwang went alone with fifty soldiers.

This traitor!

Song Wu only waited for half an hour before Huang Zhiwang arrived with a group of people.

Looking at his son who is stronger than an ox but does nothing all day long, Huang Zhiwang really wants to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

In the Dali Temple, Huang Zhiwang could not directly interrogate his son because his relatives had to avoid suspicion.

But because he was a colleague of everyone else, and the victim was involved with the Duke's Mansion, it was not good for both sides, so no one took the difficult task.

Therefore, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple let him interrogate Huang Xin first.

"Bold Huang Xin!" He slammed the gavel. "Are you the sole mastermind behind this, or is there someone else behind this?!"

The high-ranking official, the Dali Temple Minister, looked at him from time to time. His back was soaked from trying the Huang Zhiwang case.

Now that such a big scandal had been involved, Huang Xin certainly didn't think of hiding it any longer, and he blurted out everything in no time.

"Dad! Oh no, Mr. Huang, I said..."

"I didn't lead this case. Someone paid me to do it!"

Huang Zhiwang became even more angry: "When has the mansion ever lacked money from you? Tell me! Who told you to do this?!"

Huang Xin blurted out everything: "It was my classmate from Qingshan Academy, Song Chusi, who asked me to do this! He paid me with money to kidnap his fake daughter and sell her to a distant place. He even told me to give me all the money I earned from selling her..."

Huang Xin's voice became increasingly quiet: "But, but Song Chusi only told me that Song Wu was a girl from a country farmer, a fake daughter of the Bo family, and that it didn't matter whether the Bo family had her or not... He didn't say she was the adopted daughter of the Duke's Mansion..."

Huang Zhiwang was so angry that he wanted to kick him to death: "You mean, if it's an ordinary citizen, then it's OK to abduct and sell them?!"

Huang Xin hung his head: "I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again..."

What Huang Xin didn't say was that Song Chusi told him that Song Wu was a good-looking person, but a weak person, so there was nothing difficult about him!

Is this called being weak? Is this called not difficult?

I really hate myself for believing that weakling Song Chusi today when I was short of money!

If I had known it was such a huge Buddha, I wouldn’t have dared to do it even if I had tens of thousands of courage!

Song Wu looked at the burly man in front of him who was crying so hard that his nose was covered with snot, and said to Huang Zhiwang, who was sitting at the top of the table, "Sir Huang, in my opinion, this incident was not caused by Young Master Huang. He was simply misled by a treacherous person and didn't know how to distinguish between right and wrong. We should also arrest the person who instigated this and interrogate him thoroughly, so that we can truly save this girl from this predicament!"

Very understanding!

He really understands the big picture!

God knows how excited Huang Zhiwang was when he heard this. He even wanted to kowtow to Song Wu.

How come she is the adopted daughter of the Duke of Anguo? Her words and actions are so sharp that they can be seen through at a glance!

He nodded, but coughed twice to show his solemnity, "Someone come!"

He threw the order to the ground and said in a threatening tone, "Go to the Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness's mansion and bring the perpetrator of this case, the fourth son of the Marquis, Song Chusi, to the hall!"

Song Chusi had just returned home from the academy and was leisurely eating pine nut and lily pastry in Li's room.

Huang Xin is the school bully feared by everyone in Qingshan Academy. When Song Wu saw him, he must have been trembling with fear, right?

He couldn't help but think that Huang Xin should have succeeded by now!

Li looked at her son with satisfaction. Although Qingshan Academy was not a top-notch institution in Beijing, it had produced many top-ranked students, who now held important positions in the imperial court.

As long as my son studies hard in there, his future will be limitless!

In addition, there is the matter of Prince Jin choosing a concubine. She knows all the noble ladies in the capital who are participating in the selection, and none of them are as pretty as Chuchu!

As long as she prepares carefully, she will surely come out on top!

She also took a piece of pine nut and lily pastry, took a nibble, and just like this promising day, it soon became so sweet that she squinted her eyes.

Suddenly there was a noisy sound outside the door. When Li opened her eyes, she saw the figure of Nanny Sun rushing in with disorderly steps and in a hurry.

"Madam, something big has happened! Someone's coming! Someone's coming from the government office again!"

"Madam!" Li was a little displeased and stood up. "Be careful! The last time the government officials came, they managed to make a big deal out of a small matter! Our family is now witnessing the arrival of a powerful aura. You must not behave so rudely!"

Nanny Sun didn't care about her, her tongue almost tied in anxiety. "Outside, there are people from the Dali Temple outside. There are dozens of them. They say the young master has committed a crime and want us to go with him quickly!"

Song Chusi was a little flustered for a moment, and the cake in his mouth no longer smelled delicious. He stood up suddenly and asked, "Can you tell me why?"

Nanny Sun stamped her feet anxiously: "Oh! What are they saying to a simple old servant like me? Of course they keep their mouths shut!"

Seeing Song Chusi and Li finally come out, the official who came over snorted coldly.

"What a grand display at the Earl's Mansion! We were ordered here to apprehend a wanted criminal, and yet they're dragging their feet like this!"

Before Song Chusi could react, two police officers came up to him and put the shackles on his neck.

Li was shocked and angry, and screamed in horror, "Sir, we are a noble family after all, what are you doing?!"

The leading officer glanced at Song Chusi impatiently and said, "The young master of the Bo family murdered the adopted daughter of the Duke of Anguo. The case is under the personal supervision of the Dali Temple. They found out that Song Chusi was the mastermind behind the murder, so they ordered us to come and take him away!"

Song Chusi's heart dropped anxiously.

He knew that Huang Xin's father was the Dali Temple Secretary, and seeing that Huang Xin had done so many things before and nothing happened, he let him go!

A father can't really do anything to his own son, right?

How could the boat capsize in the gutter?!

When Song Chusi was taken away by the Dali Temple, Li felt like the sky had fallen on her family.

No one knew why Song Chushi went to the Marquis' Mansion again, and only Song Chuchu was left at home.

So she hurriedly sent Shunzi, who was by Song Ming's side, to the Taifu Temple to find Song Ming, and asked him to come back quickly!

Of course Song Chuchu knew why Song Chusi was taken away. It must be that her words about not wanting to run for the position of Princess Jin had worked. In order to get the position of princess, she did something to hurt Song Wu.

She also made two preparations. If Song Wu was really harmed by Song Chusi, she could use the excuse that Song Wu was the candidate to escape the fate of marrying Jiang Xing. At the same time, Song Wu would not be able to get the position of princess. This was the best outcome.

If Song Chusi had failed to succeed, then with Song Wu's ability, he would have made the matter known to everyone.

At that time, she would use Song Wu's hand to warn Song Chusi, so that her adopted brother would give up and no longer be a stumbling block on her way to marrying Ji Bozhou. Then she would slowly make plans.

In short, no matter which one it is, it is beneficial to her, so at this moment, apart from persuading Li to relax, although she looks heartbroken on the surface, she is happy and at ease in her heart.
