Chapter 382 Dad Was Arrested
Both matters were resolved, and Wen Shu went home before the sun went down.

On the way, she paid attention to the progress of the system upgrade again, and found that it was only [-]% gone, and she couldn't help being very frustrated.

At this speed, it may be difficult to enter the mountain and sea world tomorrow.

Thinking of Hong Ying, Wen Shu felt restless.Little did she know, when she got home, another shocking news hit her.

"A-Ning, you're finally back! Uncle Wen, Uncle Wen, was taken away!"

"What did you say?!" Wen Shu was stunned.

"Half an hour ago, I came to ask you to read and write. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw your father being taken away by two officials."

"Official errand, where is the official errand?"

"Looking at the clothes, it should be from Kaifeng Mansion."

"What crime?"

"I don't know. I asked, but they didn't say anything. Hey, where are you going?"

"Kaifeng Mansion!" When the voice fell, Wen Shu had already run out of Xiaocha Lane.

When she came to the street, she stopped the most expensive and fastest carriage and went straight to Kaifeng Mansion.

On the way, he was still thinking about why the Kaifeng government wanted to arrest her father, what mistakes her father had made, and why they could directly arrest her without even being promoted.

When she got out of the car, her legs were weak.The afterglow of the sun was gone in the sky, and in front of the gate of Kaifeng mansion, two government servants were about to close the door.

She hurriedly rushed over and stopped the yamen who closed the door, "Dare to ask the officer, half an hour ago, was a prisoner interrogated here?"

The yacha shook his head and said that he hadn't been promoted today.

Wen Shu told the situation, and the Yacha asked her to go to the prison for questioning.

She thanked her immediately, followed the instructions to find the door of the prison, gave some money to the guard at the gate, and continued to inquire.

The jailer took the money and told her straightforwardly that a male prisoner in his forties was indeed detained half an hour ago.

Wen Shu hurriedly asked what his name was and what crime he was charged with?
The jailer said his name was the prisoner Wen Tai, and the charges were not clear, because he was going through the procedures of temporary detention, and he might be transferred tomorrow.

Wen Shu was so worried that he gave some money to the jailer, asking him to accommodate him and let him visit the prison.Firstly, to see if her father is okay, secondly, to ask about the situation and find a solution.

Unexpectedly, the jailer didn't let go of his mouth this time, and just said that his superiors had confessed that the prisoner could not visit the prison for the time being, and asked her to take back the money.

Wen Shu stomped her feet anxiously, wanting to use the system, but the system was being upgraded and the remote scanning function could not be used.

It's really a leak in the house every night when it rains!

After thinking about it, she had no choice but to add some stuff to the jailer, asking him to take care of her father in prison.

Money can turn ghosts, and the jailer readily agreed.Anyway, the superiors only said that they couldn't visit the prison, but didn't say that they would give him a hard time.

After taking care of the place, Wen Shu turned around and ran to the Hou Mansion.

Master Lu is the Minister of Dali Temple, and she is in charge of this kind of matter. She doesn't ask the other party to bend the law for personal gain, but just wants to know exactly what crime her father committed.

However, when he went to the gate of the Hou Mansion, he was told that Mr. Lu had gone to other provinces for disaster relief seven days ago and was not in the capital.

Upon hearing this news, Wen Shu instantly collapsed to the ground, her heart sank to the bottom, and her mind was in a mess.

Why is this happening all of a sudden?
Her father was a man of duty, and he asked the neighbors to help if he could. He never argued with others, so how could he commit a crime suddenly.

Moreover, he has never passed the court, and he went to jail without being convicted of a crime, which is strange no matter how he thinks about it.

Sitting on the steps of the side door of the Hou's Mansion for a while, she suddenly understood, could it be...
With this in mind, she ran away, heading towards the Xiangfu that she had just visited in the morning.

She didn't believe that there was such a coincidence, it must be the Xiangfu, and it must be the Xiangfu's doing something.Otherwise, if there is no charge, the Tang will not.

If it was really something that the Xiangfu did to threaten her to confess her relatives, she would definitely turn the Xiangfu upside down.

Just as Wen Shu was struggling to run to Xiang's mansion, the other side of Xiang's mansion was preparing to have dinner.

Because of Wen Shu's words in the morning, Wang suffered all day long and didn't eat lunch. At this time, Qin Pei was trying to relieve her.

"The news came so suddenly, it's normal for Shu'er to be unable to accept it for a while. Take care of yourself first, and then talk to her after she calms down. In the future, pay more attention to her. After a long time, she will naturally soften her heart."

"I know, just thinking about so many years, this child has been wandering outside, and I, as a mother, haven't taken care of it for a day, and my heart feels like bleeding. I heard that her family lives in the north of the city, and the conditions are poor. I don't know how much she has suffered, whether her adoptive parents treat her well or not."

"Don't worry, I sent someone to inquire. Her adoptive father treated her very well, and she was the only child in the family. Although life was difficult, he sent her to a private school."

Hearing that Qin Pei only mentioned her adoptive father, Wang couldn't help wondering, "Is it good for her to be only her adoptive father? What about her adoptive mother? Is it not good for her?"

"No, it is said that her adoptive mother passed away very early, and the neighbors said that Shu'er was born with dystocia."

The dystocia Shu'er was born by her, so there should be other reasons for the dystocia.

"Then she was brought up by a widow?"

"Well, it is said that in order to prevent her from being tortured by her stepmother, her adoptive father has not married all these years." Qin Pei said while serving Wang's food.

"It's really not easy." Wang said with emotion: "No wonder she doesn't want to recognize us. Compared with her adoptive father, we are really far behind."

Qin Pei nodded, and said again: "This also shows that she is a child who values ​​affection. If we talk about it, she will recognize us immediately, and I will be worried."

A person who abandons her nurturing grace at the sight of wealth must be a person who is merciless and merciful.

Wang felt that it made sense, and the discomfort in her heart gradually disappeared.

Seeing this, Qin Pei hit the iron while it was hot: "Hurry up and eat, and bring some things to visit tomorrow. With her adoptive father helping to talk, Shu'er's attitude towards us will be better."

"Visit at home?" Mrs. Wang hesitated, "Should I talk to Shu'er first?"

After all, judging from her previous attitude, she probably didn't want them to come to her door.

"It's okay to ask. You can ask Qiao girl to ask her out tomorrow. If she doesn't want to come to Xiang's mansion, she can invite her to the teahouse."

"Is Xiangye not with me?"

"I have to go to the court tomorrow, and the court has been restless recently. I'm afraid I won't have the time to do it. Besides, she probably doesn't want to see me." Qin Pei said helplessly.

He could feel Wen Shu's fear and stiffness when facing him.

Mrs. Wang nodded, and wanted to say something, so she heard the report from the young man. During the day, the young lady came again, saying that she was asking to see the prime minister.

"Please see me?" Qin Pei looked at Wang with some doubts.

I just said I was afraid of him, so that's it.
"What's the promise, Mr. Xiang, go quickly." Wang urged, but felt a little disappointed in her heart.

Qin Pei laughed and said, "My wife will go with my husband." After finishing speaking, he pulled Mrs. Wang and went out.

"Did you catch my dad?!"

As soon as they met, Wen Shu yelled at them like a firecracker.

Wang was stunned for a moment, and said, "What are you talking about, why did we arrest your father?"

"Not you, who else?!" Wen Shu was a little excited.

On the way here, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was wrong. Such a strange way of being imprisoned was not like committing a crime, but more like committing a crime.

But the ability to move the government and the government is beyond the reach of the high position and weight.
