The princess ran away again

People like Mrs. Zhong are very superstitious, otherwise they would not join Buddhism after doing such heinous things, hoping to atone for their sins.Chu Zhao actually didn't know what Mrs. Zhao's voice was like, but deliberately imitated the old man's old and desolate tone in a dark environment that made Mrs. Zhong panic.With her lightness skills, the old lady with poor eyesight would naturally regard her as a ghost who came to seek revenge.

"I heard that there are people in the market who are good at ventriloquism, but I didn't expect that the lady in the general's mansion can do this too." Ning Yuyao joked as soon as she came out of the alley.Chu Zhao didn't take it seriously, snorted softly and said, "I said earlier that there are many things I know. People don't know, it's just because I don't want to do it."

"Yes, yes." Ning Yuyao nodded, and said with a smile, "You Miss Chu is the most powerful. But then again, after such a scare, will Mrs. Zhong be a witness? Will she confess her son? She and Mrs. Zhao has decades of friendship, but no matter what, it can't be compared to blood relatives."

Chu Zhao frowned, and said softly, "She will go to the government to take the blame."

"But this is still killing a life in vain, and the real murderer is at large." Ning Yuyao pursed her lips, and continued, "Zhong Jie is so cruel, he can't be a dutiful son, right? Seeing his old mother suffer , He may not be moved, he may still be secretly happy in his heart, someone has taken the blame for him."

Chu Zhao replied: "Not necessarily. Don't worry, let's wait and see what happens."

Zhong Jie at the other end didn't know that such an accident happened at home, he fought with Wang Niansun in Fengyue Tower, and finally both of them were thrown out of Fengyue Tower.Disgraced, quite embarrassed.Just as he was about to go home and change his clothes, he suddenly bumped into another person, saying that he had lost his purse, and insisted on falsely accusing him of being a thief.Fortunately, I met Young Master Qian and his party and got their help to escape.Back at the mansion, because of the injury on his face, he refused to see the old lady, so no one came to persuade the old lady to go to the yamen.

Changes happened the next day.

As expected by Chu Zhao and the others, Mrs. Zhong beat the drum in front of the yamen and went to the yamen to surrender.What was said about Mrs. Zhao's death was actually her poison and had nothing to do with Zhao Xingzhou.She just felt sorry for her son who was overwhelmed by Zhao Xingzhou in everything, so she came up with such a poisonous plan to let him die unjustly in prison, and ruin his reputation!The people in the government office did not expect such a change in the situation, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while.Because of the request of the county guard, they decided that they would not dare to release Zhao Xingzhou, and they could only take the old lady of the Zhong family into custody.When Zhong Jie heard the news, he was drinking with a group of dudes and hurried to the yamen, but it was already too late, where could he see the old lady?Let him plead in every possible way, but the people in the government office are indifferent.

Mrs. Zhong has a good reputation in the neighborhood, even if she has moved out of that poor alley, neighbors will mention her from time to time.They first heard that it was Mrs. Zhong who poisoned Mrs. Zhao, how could they believe it?All of a sudden, he turned his thoughts to Zhong Jie.Mrs. Zhong couldn't see her son's virtue clearly because of her doting, but the people outside knew it clearly.

"I see, that kid from the Zhong family did it, right? I don't believe Mrs. Zhong will poison you."

"That kid was a thief when he was young, and he blamed Xing Zhou when he did bad things. This time, he might be the one who framed Xing Zhou."

"What a pity to have such a son!"

……

Naturally, Wang Niansun also heard the rumors outside. Combined with the previous events, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.Zhao Xingzhou is generous and doesn't understand Zhong Jie's scheming and filth, but as a bystander, he can see clearly.It wasn't a day or two since Zhong Jie coveted Guan Pan'er, but Guan Pan'er had a secret heart for Xing Zhou and dismissed Zhong Jie.It is very possible that Zhong Jie plotted a vicious murder plan for a woman.

"Xingzhou has been treating you well, right? How could you frame him like this?" Wang Niansun found Zhong Jie who was drunk in a wine shop, picked up a wine jar and threw it on his head.Zhong Jie was startled, and hastily avoided the jar.Pa-ta-the crisp crackling sound echoed in the wine shop, and Zhong Jie's wine was suddenly awakened. "What are you doing? Do you want to kill someone?" Zhong Jie said angrily.

"Kill you and apologize for Xingzhou!" Wang Niansun spat in his face, and kicked Zhong Jie vigorously, regardless of his usual gentleness.

For a while, no one dared to stop the wine shop.

Chu Zhao and Ning Yuyao followed Zhong Jie all the time. Seeing such a scene, Chu Zhao pursed his lips and smiled, and said leisurely: "Although this scholar has a bad temper, as a friend, he is quite righteous."

Ning Yuyao rolled her eyes and replied, "Women are all disasters in his eyes. Do you see them fighting? If you beat someone to death, things will be bad."

"We don't need to stop this." Chu Zhao heard a yell just after he finished speaking.It turned out that a group of dandies with servants came, they saw Zhong Jie and Wang Niansun scuffling into a ball, and immediately pulled them away.With a violent push, the scholar was thrown a foot away, and then he pulled Zhong Jie away.

Ning Yuyao frowned and said, "What should I do?"

Chu Zhao's eyes flickered, and he replied, "Chasing!" But she didn't move, she first walked towards Wang Niansun who staggered up and wiped the nosebleed, and said in a deep voice, "If you want your friend to be safe and sound, you won't be able to come out." Heartbroken, I went to Fengyue Tower and took Guan Pan'er to a safe place." These days their plan was going on, but Guan Pan'er was still somewhat uncertain, so she still didn't reject the Sheriff's Office son.Helping people has to help to the end, how can Zhao Xingzhou find that Guan Pan'er and Qian Bao died together when he was released from prison?Speaking of this, without waiting for Wang Niansun to agree, Chu Zhao took Ning Yuyao to chase in the direction where Zhong Jie and the others left.

Ning Yuyao asked puzzledly, "Why don't Li Mengyang and the others go and take Guan Pan'er away? What can such a feeble scholar do?"

Chu Zhao lowered his eyes and whispered, "It's my selfishness." Traveling abroad is somewhat dangerous. After experiencing the previous turmoil, she didn't want to dismiss the secret guard for a long time unless it was unavoidable.

The person who took Zhong Jie away may not have good intentions.As the real masterminds, they were afraid that Mrs. Zhong's imprisonment would affect Zhong Jie's judgment.Li Mengyang has already caught up with him one step ahead.When Chu Zhao and the others arrived in the dead alley, as expected, they heard a burst of scolding and fighting.This group of dude's hearts are cruel enough, no matter how Zhong Jie begged for mercy on his knees, they only believe that the dead are the only ones who won't reveal their secrets.Fortunately, Li Mengyang made a timely move to prevent them from killing Zhong Jie.

Every wealthy young master will always have a few thugs by his side.It's not a problem to kill a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, but if you want to target someone who is walking on the tip of a knife, you can only get beaten to death.In less than a cup of tea, those dude disciples fled out of the narrow alley in embarrassment, crying loudly.

Seeing this, Chu Zhao finally let go of his hanging heart.

Li Mengyang came out with Zhong Jie in his hand, frowning, and asked with disgust, "What should I do with this person?" He was so scared that he peed his pants, but when he saw the white knife, he rolled his eyes and fainted past.

Chu Zhao took Ning Yuyao back a step, and said in a low voice: "Find a place and lock it up. It doesn't need to be too hidden. It's best to give those people some clues." Sensing that someone was interfering in this matter, Qian Bao wanted to prevent If the trick is leaked, he will definitely not let it go.This matter will not end like this, Zhong Jie still has a few dead ends in front of him.

Ning Yuyao asked: "Will someone in the prison kill Zhao Xingzhou directly?" Most people in the city said that Zhao Xingzhou was wronged, and the Yamen did not dare to kill Zhao Xingzhou easily in order to cover up, but the situation is different now .Mrs. Zhong came out to take the blame, and this matter changed again.

Li Mengyang responded: "Princess, don't worry, I have already arranged this." Xu Zhen has already ordered Xu Zhen to take the token and go to the government office, saying that the emperor's envoy will arrive in the city in the future, even if they have the intention to kill people, they have to weigh it Is it worth it?

Seeing the happy ending, Ning Yuyao let out a long sigh of relief.Suddenly, Li Mengyang dropped Zhong Jie and slapped his head, as if remembering something.He asked: "There hasn't been a letter from Beijing for a long time, and there has been no reply to the news passed on. I don't know if something serious has happened." As soon as these words came out, the hearts of Ning Yuyao and the others immediately rose to their throats.It is unlikely that the letter from Beijing will be intercepted halfway, unless that person is extremely powerful.

When Li Mengyang mentioned it, Chu Zhao immediately remembered the letter paper from the past few days. What does the "quick return" on it indicate? "It seems that the matter in Youyang can't be delayed any longer, we still have to go back to the capital as soon as possible," Chu Zhao said in a low voice.

Li Mengyang nodded and said, "Well, I'll deal with Zhong Jie immediately." After leading the people away, only Chu Zhao and Ning Yuyao were left in the alley.Looking at each other without words, Chu Zhao's eyelids twitched violently, and his heart was palpitated. This feeling was like the few days when his mother was dying. "Don't expect any accidents," Chu Zhao said to himself.

Ning Yuyao was also affected by Chu Zhao's emotions, sighed lightly, and comforted softly: "Don't worry, father and general are both in good health, and nothing will happen. The matter here is coming to an end soon. We can rush back to Kyoto immediately."

Worrying is useless, it can only calm your mind.Chu Zhao nodded lightly, and said in a low voice: "Let's go." After walking out of the dark alley, there is a spacious and bright long street. Chu Zhao suddenly raised his eyes when he noticed a strange sight falling on him.It was a strange young man standing by the side of the stall, holding a fan in his hand, and smiled softly at him.

he is--

Chu Zhao was startled, and when he wanted to take a closer look at the man's appearance, he turned around and left.
