Chapter 38

Wei Qianqian walked the streets for several days, holding a shred of hope in his heart. If Fu Jue finds out that Wei Lai is not Zhao Zhao, and he arrests the wrong person, he should release the innocent person.

Although the possibility of this conjecture being realized is very small, Wei Qianqian did not miss any chance.

Wei Qianqian decided not to sit still after finding someone from the outside to no avail that day, and immediately took out a pen and paper when she returned to the medical clinic, and wrote a letter with a few strokes.

Walking to an alley far away from the medical hall, took out a tael of silver, and came to a little beggar.

Drag him to deliver the letter to the Prince Regent's Mansion, and if you ask who sent the letter, you will say that you don't know, and the reward is one tael of silver.

The little beggar had never seen so much silver, he nodded in agreement, got up and took the letter from Wei Qianqian, and ran towards the Prince Regent's Palace without looking back.

When the little beggar came to the Prince Regent's Mansion, he looked at the closed gate and the guards guarding the gate, and felt a little scared again.

It's a pity that when you think about that one tael of silver, you can feed yourself a full meal, and there are extras left, so you feel that you are not afraid of anything.

The guards guarding the gate saw such a little beggar poking his head in front of the Prince Regent's Mansion, and one of them went up to drive him away.

"Walk around, where did you come from, the little beggar, don't you know that this is the Prince Regent's Palace?"

I was already a little scared, but now that I am being expelled, the little beggar doesn't know what to do right now?

At this time, the gate of the Prince Regent's Mansion opened from the inside, and a man over fifty years old walked out, who seemed to be working in the Palace.

"What are you doing? There's a lot of noise in front of the palace, what's the point?"

The guard who was trying to drive away the little beggar, when he heard the man's voice, hurriedly turned around and saluted, and called out to the housekeeper.

"Where did this beggar come from? It looks like he came to beg at the gate of the palace. This subordinate drove him away."

After our waiter has explained to the butler, we will continue to beggars and beggars.

The little beggar refused to leave, and when he heard the housekeeper he called just now, he thought that the letter in his hand should be handed over to him.

"I'm here to deliver a letter, don't drive me away..." the little beggar shouted loudly while struggling.

The butler didn't pay much attention at first, but he stopped the guard when he heard that he was delivering a letter.

Walking up to the little beggar, squatting down and looking him at the same level: "You just said you were here to deliver a letter, what letter?"

Seeing that this person is not as fierce as the person he felt for him just now, the little beggar talked to him.

"Someone gave me a letter and asked me to give it to someone in the Regent's House."

While talking, he took out the letter that Wei Qianqian asked him to deliver from the front of his shabby clothes.

The housekeeper had already seen that he really had a letter in his hand, and hurriedly took it in case it was really something important, it must not be delayed.

After a few simple inquiries, he took the envelope and went to the palace.

"My lord, a beggar came outside the palace and sent a letter."

The housekeeper came to the study door and knocked softly on the door. Normally at this time, Fu Jue would stay in the study to deal with political affairs.

Fu Jue in the room must be delivering a letter, somehow, his mind automatically thought of Wei Qianqian.

After letting the butler come in, the butler consciously handed the letter to Fu Jue.

Holding the lightweight letter, Fu Jue directly opened it to read the contents.

The butler stood quietly by the side, as if he didn't exist.

"Who sent the letter?"

Hearing Fu Jue's inquiry, the housekeeper briefly recounted the incident.

"It was a little beggar who sent the letter. He actually said he didn't know who asked him to send the letter. It seems that he is not someone too important."

Any smart person, if he thinks about it, will make the messenger not know who he is doing for.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Fu Jue asked the housekeeper to call the guard who was on duty that night.

The butler went down, and not far from the study, he saw Zhang Shiwei who had just received his punishment not long ago.

Taking him to the study, Fu Jue asked carefully.

"Where is the child who let you go there that night?"

Upon hearing Fu Jue's oppressive interrogation, the guard thought about the child who was beaten to death by him that night.

"If you let the prince know that you violated his order and beat the child like that, you will definitely receive a heavier punishment."

He hesitated and hurriedly denied it humbly: "This subordinate obeyed the prince's wishes and released him. As for where he went afterward, this subordinate..."

Seeing that the attendant couldn't speak from behind, he thought it was okay to let him go and didn't continue to take care of him.

Thinking about the contents of the letter, Fu Jue got up and walked out, and ordered the housekeeper to reserve a private room in Yunxiang Building.

The person who wrote the letter said in the letter that if he wanted a military book, he would let his child go, and he would pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other.

But Fu Jue always has some kind of child in his hands, and he went to Yunxiang Tower just to see how capable the man who stole the book of war is, and what purpose he has.

Wei Qianqian came all the way to Yunxiang Building, asked the shopkeeper in the lobby, and went up to the second floor.

He always thinks that the military book in his hand is something that Fu Jue valued, and exchanging an important military book for a child who is not important to him is a good deal.

All the way to the room on the second floor unimpeded, there was no one outside the door, but the old housekeeper was standing at the door.

"So abide by the agreement..."

Wei Qianqian wrote in the letter that there should be no extra people, but Fu Jue actually did so.

Seeing Wei Qianqian approaching, the butler slightly bowed his hands to her, and pushed open the door: "My lord has been waiting for you for a long time, please come in!"

Walking into the room, only Fu Jue was sitting at the wine table, and when he heard the door opening, he knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.

"Your Excellency is quite courageous, broke into the palace, took my king's book of war, and now dares to go to the appointment alone, I am not afraid..."

Fu Jue didn't say the latter, so how could Wei Qianqian not know what he meant?

"My lord was joking. Taking your book of war is just a bad idea. As long as my lord hands over the child, I heard that he will return it to you."

Wei Qianqian made a deal with him, and stated his purpose of coming in a simple and clear manner.

"No one can threaten this king. How could this king care about such a small military book? It's just that you don't have such good luck."

As soon as Fu Jue finished speaking, Wei Qianqian heard a burst of chaotic footsteps appearing in the corridor.

Wei Qianqian thought inwardly: "The prince didn't keep the agreement, isn't this the way of a gentleman?"

Sitting on the seat, holding a teacup and sipping the tea in his hand in a refined manner, a simple cup of tea made him drink an expensive style.

"This king is not a gentleman, and your Excellency's laziness in this king's art of war is another act of a gentleman!"

Wei Qianqian didn't want to talk to her, but luckily he kept back.
