Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Zhan Yan immediately bowed deeply and said, "Your servant, Zhan Yan, obeys your order!"

He took the imperial edict from Li Youde, lowered his eyes and ordered: "Open the gate!"

Such a big event naturally aroused discussion among people.

Moreover, the residence of Marquis Zhan Yi is located in a prosperous area of ​​the capital, and is surrounded by the residences of important officials in the court.

Almost as soon as the gate of the mansion was opened, the lanterns in the yard next door were already lit.

Many people climbed over the wall to watch the excitement, and when they saw the guards rushing into the courtyard of the marquis' mansion, they were all shocked.

They all started to discuss, "Oh my god, is the Zhan Yihou Mansion going to collapse? Searching the mansion in the middle of the night is definitely not a good thing!"

Someone nearby echoed, "This is definitely a big deal. The last time they raided a mansion in the middle of the night, it was the Duke of Cheng's mansion. It was said that he had embezzled military funds and was reported. When daybreak came, not only were dozens of boxes of gold taken out, but there were even corpses scattered throughout the mansion!"

All kinds of miscellaneous sounds reached Zhan Yan's ears, but instead of being frightened, he even smiled at them on the wall.

Everyone was shocked and quickly retracted their heads.

Oh my God, it’s already this late, I can’t have anything to do with the Zhan family!

Otherwise, they will be the next ones to be searched!

The Su family also got the news, which scared Su Zining.

She hurried to Su Zisheng's yard, banged on the gate and shouted, "Brother, open the door quickly!"

Su Zisheng had just done something good with his wife and was looking forward to how much benefit Su Zining would bring to the Su family after becoming the wife of the young master of the Marquis's Mansion.

Being interrupted at this moment, I suddenly felt a little annoyed.

If it weren't for the fact that Su Zining was about to marry into the Marquis's Mansion, I would have slapped her long ago.

He asked in a harsh tone, "What are you yelling about in the middle of the night? The Marquis's Mansion will send the betrothal gifts tomorrow. Do you want to go to see the young master of the Marquis' Mansion with a black eye?"

Su Zining said aggrievedly: "You are still thinking about the betrothal gifts, why don't you go out and find out what's going on in the Marquis' Mansion?"

Su Zisheng was stunned. "I haven't heard anything happened in the Marquis' Mansion. Besides, Marquis Zhan Yi is the emperor's favorite. No matter how big the problem is, the emperor can always handle it. What are you worrying about?"

Su Zining shook his head vigorously. "This time is different. It is said that someone reported that Marquis Zhan Yi was collaborating with the enemy, and the emperor personally sent Prince Zhongyong to lead the imperial guards to search the Marquis's mansion to catch the spy!"

Su Zisheng was shocked all over. As a doctor in the Ministry of War, he knew better than anyone that treason was a multiple crime!

Not only did they confiscate the property and destroy the entire family, they even spared no efforts in killing the daughters who had married out.

He anxiously asked, "Are you sure the news is correct? Zhan Yan is loyal to the emperor, how could he collaborate with the enemy?"

Su Zining's eyes were red as she spoke, "I haven't found out the specific reason yet, but the news has spread everywhere, and the imperial edict has been handed down to Marquis Zhan Yi. As long as the charges are proven, the Zhan family will probably disappear from the capital!"

Su Zisheng's face turned ashen with anger. He had just come into contact with the Zhan Yihou Mansion.

I haven't even had a chance to eat the fish yet, but I'm already covered in fishy smell.

How can this be good?

He wanted to quickly cancel the engagement with the Marquis' Mansion, but he was afraid it was a false alarm.

By then, it will be difficult for Su Zining to marry into the Marquis' Mansion!

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will go to the Marquis' Mansion to get information myself. As long as the Zhan family is found guilty of collaborating with the enemy, I will cancel the engagement with them on the spot. Anyway, you were also schemed by that bastard Zhan Yu. The emperor should not blame our Su family!"

Su Zining hurriedly urged, "Then hurry up and go. Also, take this opportunity to ask the Zhan family for some compensation. We have to share some of the good things Lin Yiwan has. I can't let the Zhan family ruin my reputation in vain!"

Su Zisheng nodded solemnly: "I understand this principle. When a big tree falls, our Su family must get a piece of the pie!"

Without further hesitation, he hurried to the residence of Marquis Zhan Yi to inquire about the news.

At this time, King Zhongyong had ordered his men to turn the entire mansion upside down, but they still couldn't find the whereabouts of the spy.

He was a little anxious, because the secret guard had clearly told him that the spy was in the woodshed.

He almost dug up the house, so how come there is no trace at all?

Could it be that Zhan Yan had hidden him in advance?

According to the time calculation, he simply didn't have time to send him out of the Marquis' Mansion.

He must still be among the Zhan family!

Without further hesitation, he quickly ordered, "Marquis Zhan Yi, please bring out all the servants of your Zhan family according to the roster, from oldest to youngest, from oldest to youngest!"

Zhan Yan replied slowly, "There's naturally no problem with my Zhan family. It's just that my wife just married in from the Lin family, and the maids around her haven't been included in the roster yet!"

King Zhongyong thought to himself, the spy is not a woman, so just don’t put her on the list.

He interrupted impatiently: "It's okay, just let them all stand out and let the guards check them one by one!"

Soon, all the maids and servants came into the garden.

Lin Yiwan came with three maids. Ling'er and Zi'er stood on either side of her. There was another maid with her head lowered, so her appearance could not be seen clearly.

A hint of doubt flashed in Chen Zhilan's eyes, but she did not expose it.

By this time, King Chungyong was already extremely impatient. He sternly ordered, "Search them thoroughly. No matter if they are men or women, their appearances must be compared with the portraits one by one!"

Obviously, he had already suspected that Zhan Yan would dress up as a woman.

Many guards were searching among the crowd, searching very carefully.

The loyal and brave King's sharp eyes fell on Zhan Yan, filled with murderous intent!

He sneered, "Zhan Yan, you can't escape!"

Zhan Yan replied calmly, "Whether I can escape or not is not determined by the prince, but by the evidence!"

When King Zhongyong heard his words, his face turned ashen with hatred.

Zhan Yan still dares to be so arrogant?

There will be a time when he will cry and beg for mercy!

Without further hesitation, he went to search for the spy himself.

About half an hour later, the commander of the Imperial Guard returned to King Zhongyong and said, "Your Highness, we have carefully checked the list of people in the Marquisate many times, but we haven't found any spies from the Kingdom of Li!"

"Impossible! It must be Zhan Yan who hid the person!" King Zhongyong retorted angrily.

Zhan Yan spread his hands innocently, "Your Highness, the Zhan Yi Marquis's residence is so small, and the people you brought with you have to dig deep into the ground. Even the ancestral hall has been searched. Where else can I hide people?"

King Zhongyong looked at the commander of the Imperial Guards and asked, "Have you searched the lotus pond in the backyard? What if it's hidden underwater?"

The commander of the Royal Guards immediately replied, "We've searched everywhere, and there's nothing!"

King Zhongyong's heart suddenly sank. How could it be possible?

You clearly threw the person into the woodshed?

His sweeping gaze immediately fell on the women of the Marquis's residence. He gritted his teeth and said, "Check carefully again to see if there are any unfamiliar faces among the women in the Marquis's residence."
