General Yu Ling

The soldiers brought a basin of water to Nie Liancheng and lifted it in the air, just as Nie Liancheng was about to sprinkle the water on the pages of the book.

Luo Zhe suddenly rushed out from the side, knocked over the water basin, grabbed the empty account book, turned around and ran towards the back door of King Qi's mansion.Nie Liancheng was caught off guard by a stagger, and took a few steps back, trying to stabilize his footing.

Everyone was stunned and speechless.

Ji You frowned, also showing a shocked expression.

After Nie Liancheng came to his senses, he shouted, "Catch him, don't let him take that account book away!" Everyone hurried to chase.

Jiang Yiran quickly pulled out the sword at his waist, and was about to throw it towards Luo Zhe's running back. When his sword was thrown halfway, Ji You blocked it with a sword.

Ji You also threw out his own sword and knocked down Jiang Yiran's sword. The sound of the two swords falling to the ground was very ferocious and piercing.

Ji You stared intently at Jiang Yiran with dark, preying eyes. His once aloof appearance was gone, like a sleeping wild wolf finally opened its eyes, revealing its dark green pupils, ready to kill people at any time.

He said coldly, "Don't hurt him."

Nie Liancheng pulled Jiang Yiran behind him, seemingly not seeing the angry Ji You, and sneered, "King Qi, are you not allowed to say anything? The people in your mansion are taking away the evidence in front of so many people! I'll investigate the case! Public disobedience to the court! Do you think he will end up well even if he is not hurt now! Which one of his crimes is not a capital crime!"

Ji You looked at Nie Liancheng coldly, "I won't let you hurt him."

Nie Liancheng stepped forward a few steps and confronted Ji You, Nie Liancheng smiled, "Then we'll see."

In fact, Nie Liancheng is very angry right now. He just helped his brother investigate a Wushisan case. Why did so many things happen, and such a good show happened.This King Qi is really annoying enough!

A group of soldiers over there came back after a while, and brought Luo Zhe here in a mess.

Luo Zhe was still struggling, "Let go of me! Let me go! You guys are too bullying, King Qi didn't openly fight against you, why are you so aggressive!"

Nie Liancheng frowned and asked, "Where's the ledger?"

"This, this, miss, that kid threw the account book into the river, and the humble and decent people are fishing for it." A soldier replied.

Nie Liancheng smiled angrily, walked up to Luo Zhe, pinched his chin, and forced him to look up, "Idiot, look at what you did! Now you have made such a small thing like this! You just wait to die!"

Luo Noir was still very unconvinced, "It's obvious that you broke into other people's homes for no reason, and even looked at other people's private things! It's you who are unreasonable first!"

Nie Liancheng really didn't want to talk nonsense with Luo Zhe any more, so he just waved his hand, "Take him to the Jiusi Sect for interrogation!"

The soldiers took Luo Zhe away.

Ji You was about to speak, but was interrupted by Nie Liancheng, "King Qi, please don't say any more, the matter has come to this point, it is useless for you to say anything, unless you give me everything, including the account book, In that case, that idiot still has a chance of life, otherwise, you can wait to collect his body."

Ji You frowned, "He doesn't know anything, and everything has nothing to do with him."

"Oh, it's okay? He has already done that kind of stupid thing, so it has nothing to do with him? King Qi, I will only give you three days. You must know that if my brother was here today, he wouldn't give it to you for a day. You, he will kill that idiot on the spot! In three days, I have already shown mercy to you."

Nie Liancheng smiled leisurely, "After three days, if you don't open your mouth, then I will interrogate that idiot. You know that Jiusimen's interrogation methods are not something ordinary people can stand. Let's go."

After finishing speaking, Nie Liancheng and the others turned around and left neatly, leaving nothing but a mess.

On the way back to the mansion, Ding Ziqi asked worriedly, "Do you think King Qi will tell the story?"

Nie Liancheng was lazily sitting on the carriage, knocking sunflower seeds, "Why not? I think he treats that idiot baby very well. Don't worry, the truth will come to light in three days. It's strange to say that a majestic King Qi would It's really funny to like men, or that kind of idiot."

As he spoke, Nie Liancheng shook his head.

Ding Ziqi hissed, with a puzzled expression, "You mean, King Qi likes that boy? How is that possible?"

"How is it impossible? You didn't see the look in his eyes at that time. You wanted to peel off my skin. It's so precious. Tsk tsk tsk, I'm afraid even he doesn't know it." Nie Liancheng shrugged his shoulders.

"He is the prince of a country, how could that be?" Ding Ziqi still looked in disbelief.

"What's the matter, the prince can't like men anymore, if you don't believe in pulling him down, you just have to see if he will get all the things out in three days."

The two returned to Nie Mansion and reported to Nie Wucheng.

Nie Wucheng sat at the desk and put down his pen after listening to the report of the two.

"You mean, the account book was snatched by the people in King Qi's mansion and thrown into the river?"

Nie Liancheng took a cautious look at Nie Liancheng's face, "Yes...well." After all, it was her first time investigating a case for Nie Wucheng, and she still felt a little guilty when it didn't go well.

"I gave you so many people, all the warrants, and then you let a person with no martial arts take away important evidence?" Nie Wucheng continued to ask.

"Yes... right." Nie Liancheng's voice became softer again.

"Who was the one who swears and clamored to handle the case, saying that it will be done well, but ended up getting nothing?"

Nie Liancheng's voice was as thin as a mosquito, "It's me..."

Nie Wucheng was angry and funny, "You still know it's you."

Ding Ziqi couldn't see it anymore, he stood up and said, "Here, Lian'er has tried her best."

Nie Wucheng looked at Ding Ziqi, "Ding Ziqi, do you know why I only let you be a military advisor for so many years? Didn't let you get involved in other affairs?"

Ding Ziqi was stunned, "I...smart?"

"Because you only have brains and no guts. You are a mother-in-law, indecisive, and a woman's kindness." Nie Wucheng said mercilessly.

"I, I, I..." Ding Zixi stammered.

"Brother, you don't have to do this, after three days, King Qi will bring things out." Nie Liancheng complained softly.

"What if he doesn't? Are you so sure?" Nie Wucheng asked back.

"I can tell, King Qi likes that idiot, he will tell." Nie Liancheng waved his hand.

Nie Wucheng sighed, "You are so naive. I have also met King Qi. He is not the kind of person who will be bound by love. He grew up in the palace since he was a child. His mother and concubine passed away when he was ten years old. He was brought up in the hands of the queen. The queen is not a soft-hearted person. King Qi's survival to this day has proved that he is a man with methods, tricks, and cruelty. Even if he likes that person, he will do it for that person. Do people give up everything?"

"This..." Nie Liancheng was not sure again.

Shao Yu poured tea for Ding Ziqi and Nie Liancheng, and comforted them with a smile, "It's okay, I think the development after this will be very interesting."

Nie Liancheng "..."

Ding Ziqi "..."

I always feel that the innocent Shao Yu learned badly from Nie Wucheng...

King Qi's Mansion.

Sitting in the study, Ji You looked gloomy and clenched his palms tightly. He suddenly threw the teacup on the table to the ground.

A man in black appeared silently from the shadows of the room, and the man in black knelt down on the ground, "Master, please calm down, the subordinates have checked clearly, Mr. Luo is now in the nine sects, there is no big hinder."

The man in black hesitated for a long while, and then said, "Master, Mr. Luo...you can only get out if you don't care about it, otherwise...you will cause big trouble. Nie Wucheng is not a good person to deal with." ...a Mr. Luo..."

The man in black wants to say that if one Luo Zhe is gone, there are thousands of Luo Zhe who can replace him, and there is no need to save him at all.What's more, Luo Zhe is so incompetent that he will only hinder the master, even if he dies.

How could Ji You not know what he was going to say, and said sharply, "Get out, you don't need to talk too much!"

The man in black bowed his head, not daring to say another word. "This subordinate will leave." Then he disappeared in the darkness.

Ji You sat at the table with an uncertain expression.Indeed, if he went to rescue Luo Noir, he would cause a lot of trouble. Moreover, he does not have the ability to compete with Nie Wucheng now.Maybe everything he's done over the years will come to naught.

If I had known... I wouldn't have brought Luo Zhe back in the first place, why, why would I have brought Luo Zhe back!

Ji You slammed the table hard.

At this moment, Luo Juan gently pushed open the door of the study from outside, and walked in on tiptoe, for fear of disturbing Ji You.

She looked up at Ji You ignorantly and said, "Big brother, did you see my brother? He went out at that time, and then I couldn't find him. Big brother, do you know where he is?"

Luo Juan, who was only six years old, didn't know how to read people's words, and didn't understand everything that happened, so she asked very naturally.

Ji You looked at Luo Juan for a while with a complicated expression, "... I don't know."

Luo Juan looked a little disappointed, "Well, big brother doesn't know..." She suddenly remembered something, "Big brother wait for me..."

Then "Ceng Ceng Ceng" ran out and brought something back to the study, it was a butter paper bag.Luo Juan stood on tiptoe and gently placed the paper bag on Ji You's table, with a hint of flattery in it.

"My brother brought this to my elder brother. It's a delicious cake, and my elder brother won't let me eat it." Luo Juan pouted with some minor complaints.

Ji You held it in his hand and looked at it. It was Yufuxuan's almond milk cake, which was not cheap, and Luo Zhe didn't charge him a penny. He once said that he would write money to him every month, but he was categorical refused.So, did he pay for it himself?

Luo Juan pouted and continued, "My brother said that my elder brother likes to eat this."

Ji You frowned, do you like it?He thought about it carefully, he had unintentionally said that the taste of this cake was not too sweet, it was a cake he could accept, but even he himself had forgotten this.

Luo Juan narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Big brother, do you like it?"

This childish remark was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, which made Ji You stunned and froze in place. Do you like it?Like it……

It turns out... this is liking...?

He just felt that this person was stupid and stubborn, with a single mind and could not read a single word, so he couldn't help him in any way, but he was a little more relaxed and happy with him, so he brought him back...

Is this like...?

Ji You thought for a moment, but still didn't quite understand, he looked a little indifferent and helpless.Only by bringing that idiot Luo Zhe in front of him, maybe he can think clearly.

After a while, Ji You looked at Luo Juan and said word by word, "Your brother will be back."

Luojuan gave him a strange look, "Of course my brother will come back, he won't leave me behind."

Ji You pulled out a smile, "Yes..."
