The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1169

Several antique dealers were arrested, but they all insisted that they had never sold anything to Charlie.

Solomon developed a deeper suspicion about the matter.

Solomon arrested the antique dealer Turu, who protested his innocence.

"Your Honor, I've been wronged! I knew absolutely nothing about this!"

Because of Turu's protest of innocence, Solomon became suspicious and showed Turu a portrait of Charlie for confirmation.

But the other party said:

"I don't know this person at all."

After receiving a positive reply, Charlie confirmed that he had not bought any antiques from them.

Solomon suspected that Charles was plotting against the king and was on his way to the palace when he bumped into Charles, who was waiting for him.

Charlie grinned slyly.

"Lord Suo, are we going to the palace?"

Solomon had a bad feeling.

Charlie asked directly, "I wonder if Lord Soler recognizes this?"

Charlie then took out Solomon's wife and daughter's belongings and threatened Solomon that he had captured his wife and daughter.

"Do you think I'd believe your nonsense?" Solomon said dismissively.

After hearing his words, Charlie wasn't angry. Instead, he spread his hands and said:

"If you don't believe I can do anything, how about this: I'll wait for you here, and you can go home right away to see if your wife and your lovely daughter are still there?"

"You're definitely trying to bluff me away so you can sneak into the palace yourself. Do you really think I'm stupid?" Solomon was already feeling uneasy.

"Why would I need to lie to you? If I had the ability to enter the palace directly, why would I need to come here to scare you?"

I'd rather avoid getting involved!

Charlie remained indifferent.

Solomon realized that this might not be Charlie bluffing him, and that his wife and daughter might really be in dire straits.

Moreover, danger could arise at any moment. He couldn't let Charlie keep him here any longer; he had to go home immediately to check if his wife and daughter were safe.

Solomon was momentarily frightened; he was now very worried about the safety of his wife and daughter.

"Judging from your expression, you must believe what I said, right? Here, I'll be waiting for you on the top of that clock tower. I'll only give you half an hour."

If time runs out, or if you try anything funny, don't blame me for being ruthless!

Charlie said with a hint of smugness.

Solomon gritted his teeth, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He wanted to tear the man in front of him to pieces, but his wife and daughter were still in his hands, and he couldn't help but worry about them.

"The timer starts now! Remember, you only have half an hour. Don't miss out, hahaha!"

Charlie left, speaking ominously.

Without giving it much thought, Solomon headed straight for his home.

He walked faster and faster, constantly trying to reassure himself.

“Bao’er and the children will definitely be alright. They are definitely still waiting for me at home. Bao’er is definitely cooking and waiting for me at home. My daughter will definitely run up to me and rush into my arms as soon as she sees me come in. They will definitely be alright.”

But things didn't go as he expected. When Solomon opened the door, he found that there was no one inside.

Even the household servants and maids had all disappeared.
