Chapter 21

The room was silent for a moment.

Then my mother yelled hysterically. She was backed by adults from the household department, so she was not afraid of the demoted Governor of Tongshan.

"Master Su, what are you doing? You have lost the law of the king and the law of heaven?"

The corner of Su Jizhi's mouth taunted: "Although the girl from the Jiaofang Division is an official prostitute, you are not allowed to buy and sell casually. I am an official ordered by the imperial court. Are you trying to reason with me?"

Su Ji's ending sound was raised, and she hummed softly. Mother's mouth was strong, but her heart was beating.

"The Ministry of Household Affairs turned a blind eye. This official can't control it, but in Tongshan Mansion..." After speaking, Su Jizhi returned to his seat and looked at everyone coldly, "I see who dares to corrupt the law by taking bribes."

After speaking, with a light flick of the finger, the teacup on the table came out of his hand and hit the carved wooden chair next to his mother.

With a bang, the teacup shattered.

Su Jizhi remained motionless, and her mother turned pale with fright.

The palm reacted in advance, and tugged at his mother's sleeve: "Look at you, you are confused. Your lord is here, just listen to your lord."

Talking and laughing: "My lord, let's pretend that nothing happened tonight, everyone happened to meet here, walk around, everyone dispersed, what should we do?"

Mom got upset, wiped off the makeup on her face, and motioned for the minister to take the king away, and a group of people went out with a huff.

The chaotic scene suddenly quieted down.

Only Wanyan was left standing beside Su Jizhi at a loss.

"From now on, you have nothing to do with Wang Yuanwai, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Su Jizhi's tone was steady, and after thinking about it, she wouldn't need to deliberately approach her again.

I feel a little lost in my heart.

"My lord... thank you." Wan Yan's voice choked up, her thoughts fluctuated.

Su Jizhi went to the window and stood against the wind.

After a while, Wan Yan heard sparrows chirping outside the window.

Su Jizhi turned around slowly: "The arresters are here, you don't need to go out after you stay in the room."

After speaking, Su Jizhi opened the door and walked out.

The moment he turned around and closed the door, Su Jizhi looked at the girl again.

She melted into the background of the candlelight, staring at him from afar.

There are thousands of emotions in the eyes, and the slender little hands are clenched tightly, and the corners of the lips are lightly pursed.

"My lord, if the case is solved, please come to me, and you promise me one condition."

Are there conditions?

Su Jizhi thought that Wan Yan just wanted to use him to escape from the king.

"Okay!" Su Jizhi agreed.

The door was closed, and the two stood on both sides of the room, both heaving a sigh of relief because of this agreement.

Su Jizhi had another excuse to get close to Wanyan.

Wan Yan wondered whether the lord could redeem her from the Jiaofang Division.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Miao Hong led people to seal up the Peach Blossom Hall of the Jiaofang Division, and took Miss Tanghong away.

A search of Tanghong's residence found a lot of gold and silver, a man's bloody robe, and a long dagger with dried blood stains was found in a rattan box under Tanghong's bed.

Everyone was in an uproar.

Su Jizhi stood in the hall of Jiaofangsi and watched the policemen search, until the policeman caught Tang Hong, Su Jizhi left.

Mom didn't dare to say anything anymore. If Tang Hong participated in the killing of Wei Zhengwu, Jiaofang would be held accountable.

Wang Yuanwai witnessed the whole process. After Su Jizhi left, he ran away in a desperate manner while no one was paying attention.

Sitting on the soft sedan chair home, Wang Yuanwai broke out in a cold sweat.

He sobered up and saw how powerful Su Jizhi was. Anyway, he didn't give the 1000 taels to his mother.

Only regret left.

Wan Yan, the duck that was about to be eaten, flew away, but thinking about her own life, it is not impossible to let Wan Yan's matter go for a while.

The soft sedan swayed forward, Wang Yuanwai gradually calmed down.

After this period of time, maybe there is still a chance.

Thinking of Wan Yan's appearance, Wang Yuanwai suddenly felt that life was beautiful.

Thinking of good things in his heart, Wang Yuanwai found that the sedan chair stopped suddenly.

Stretching his head out, he found that the bearer was gone, Mr. Su, Yin of Tongshan Mansion, was standing beside the sedan chair, his whole body was gloomy and cold.

"My... my lord..." Wang Yuanwai's tongue was tied.

Su Jizhi walked to the sedan chair, opened the curtain of the carriage, his deep pool-like eyes showed fierceness.

Wang Yuanwai jumped out of the sedan chair and knelt in front of Su Jizhi, "Master Su, I know I was wrong, please forgive me."

"Oh? What's wrong?" Su Ji's coldness was like ice.

"Young one...everything is wrong." Wang Yuanwai racked his brains, "I shouldn't make trouble and make adults unhappy."

"Hmph!" Su Jizhi snorted coldly, and suddenly pulled out his sword from his waist: "You are a commoner of Tongshan Mansion, and I am the prefect of the mansion. Why are you unhappy when the affairs of the common people come to me?"

The sedan chair stopped at the entrance of the alley, and there was no one on Tongshan Street in Haishi.

Wang Yuanwai was trembling all over, and Mr. Fu Yin looked fierce. What is this for?
"Little one, I won't dare again in the future, I beg my lord to spare my life."

The gleaming white saber was shining coldly, just like this dangling back and forth in front of Wang Yuanwai, making him restless.

"Master, really, the little one will never appear in front of adults again."

Su Jizhi bent down and squatted in front of the king, "In a few days, rumors will spread from the Tongshan Mansion that Mr. Su, the governor of the government, is threatening the king on Tongshan Street..."

"No, no, it's absolutely impossible. My lord spared my life. I left Jiaofangsi tonight and returned home. Nothing happened."

Su Jizhi was very satisfied with Wang Yuanwai's attitude. In fact, he didn't care about the word of mouth. Su Jizhi, who was already notorious, was not afraid to add another word of mouth to his reputation.

Looking up at the last quarter moon, Su Jizhi was still unhappy in his heart.

The thought of the fat man in front of him coveting the little white rabbit made Su Ji's heart turbulent.

Provocatively, he raised Wang Yuanwai's hat with the tip of his sword, and Su Jizhi sneered.

Wang Yuanwai, who was already trembling with fright, tilted his head, the tip of the sword brushed across his cheek, and a strand of hair fluttered down.

"Oh my god, my lord, don't kill me!" Wang Yuanwai cried, and his fat face, which was already suppressed by the hat, was even more distorted.

"Mr. Wang, you have to remember, don't think about things you can't think about, and don't covet people who shouldn't be coveted. If there is no place to spend the 1000 taels, you can send it to the Nursing Office. The children will thank you."

After Su Jizhi finished speaking, he patted Wang Yuanwai on the shoulder, and helped him straighten his crooked hat, "I won't help you up, the government office still has a lot of things to do, Wang Yuanwai, you have to think about it."

The night wind blew over Wang Yuanwai's cheek, and he suddenly collapsed on the ground, touching his chin, he couldn't believe that he was still alive.

After covering his eyes and crying for a long time, Wang Yuanwai finally figured it out.

Master Su came here for Wanyan.

Isn't that 1000 taels the amount of silver that my mother sold Wanyan?

With this thought, Wang Yuanwai suddenly realized.

Wan Yan has been with Master Su tonight!
Wang Yuanwai patted his thigh, secretly afraid, luckily the matter didn't work out, if it did, he didn't know how he died at this moment.

I just felt warm under my body, and there was an unpleasant smell.

Wang Yuanwai got up with difficulty, and found that he was scared to pee.

Patting his heart that was still beating wildly, Wang Yuanwai warned himself to be careful from now on and stay away from the governor of Tongshan. As for the Secretary of Jiaofang, he decided not to go there again.
