The wife of the power minister's family

Chapter 409 Here they come!

Although Zhou Qi was sitting in the shadow of the pavilion just now, Xu Jing could clearly see that his hand had been quietly placed on a bag at his waist.

If she guessed correctly, that bag contained poison that could be fatal.

However, he finally endured it and left the matter of punishing evil and promoting good back to the hands of the government.

When Zhou Qi heard this, his body froze slightly, and after a while, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "There is no need to bear a stain on yourself for such a scumbag. My father will definitely not be happy if he knows about it. Maybe He even jumped up and scolded me severely."

When a man in his thirties talked about his father, he couldn't help but reveal a touch of tenderness, a touch of pain and remembrance in his tone.

Suddenly, he took a deep breath, looked up at the half-circle bright moon in the sky, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Thank you, Madam Xu, I can finally let go of my father's hatred.

From now on, I can finally run Tianyi Pavilion more purely... "

Xu Jing looked at him, smiled lightly and said: "This is not my fault alone. Yao Shaoyin and the others visited nearly 200 restaurants in two days, which was not easy. Thanks to them, we were able to find out Hua Wen and Shi Wenfeng so quickly. Evidence of exposure.”

Investigating a case can sometimes be a very boring job, especially this kind of continuous, single visit and investigation work.

Xijing is the capital of Dachu. There are hundreds of restaurants, large and small, in the city. It only took them two days to find the restaurant where Hua Wen and Shi Wenfeng met. They were lucky.

Zhou Qi turned his head, looked at Xu Jing, smiled slightly, and suddenly said: "After the truth is revealed, the suspicion of poisoning Xinglintang can finally be completely cleared. Now that Guangmingtang has also collapsed, the qualification to supply medicine to the army has been The treasure of Xinglintang.

I would like to say congratulations to Madam Xu in advance. No matter what Xinglintang does in the future, our Zhou family will be your strongest support. "

Xu Jing couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Then thank you, Master Zhou."

While they were talking, Yao Shaoyin had already arrested everyone who should be arrested, and came over and said, "Ms. Xu, we are going back to the city. Can you leave here?"

Now that the city gate of Xijing has been closed, Xu Jing must follow Yao Shaoyin if she wants to go back.

Xu Jing glanced at Zhou Qi, and Zhou Qi seemed to know what she wanted to say, and said, "I'd better go back to Anping County. You don't need to worry about me. I don't want Xian'er to know that I put myself in danger before."

Xu Jing couldn't help but glance at him, "Master Zhou, I've said it before, you are too protective of your younger brother. Wu Lang is not the kind of person who can only be emotional. Let him know some things, which may actually promote His growth.”

So before, Zhou Xian's problem was not particularly serious, but no one in the Zhou family could teach him well.

She was just too protective of him.

Zhou Qi smiled helplessly. He had actually realized this problem for a long time, but it was not easy to change his habits for so many years.

After all, it was a family matter of the Zhou family, and Xu Jing didn't want to get involved too much. After saying a few words, she said goodbye to Zhou Qi, and started to return to Xijing with Yao Shaoyin and the others. Cheng Xiao rode up to Xu Jing's carriage and whispered: "Madam, it will take more than an hour for us to return to Xijing from here. It's getting late. You should rest in the carriage for a while."

Hua Wen and the others were very cautious and waited until Zhou Qi and the others were far away from Xijing before launching a sneak attack.

Xu Jing responded faintly in the carriage and began to close her eyes to rest, but her mind couldn't stop, and she kept thinking about other things.

She had just returned to Xijing from Anping County when she encountered such a case. It has taken almost eight days to completely solve it.

During this period, things were changing in Xijing. Not only did the Lin family suddenly collapse, but many officials from the Jiang family in the court also took sick leave or personal leave to rest at home. Two days ago, the head of the Jiang family, Xing Guogong Jiang Shaoyan, suddenly came to his right. On the grounds that he had rheumatism in his legs, he took a leave of absence from the emperor and returned home. This incident instantly caused an uproar in the court. Even people who were insensitive to political affairs realized that something was very wrong with the Jiang family during this period.

Before Xu Jing ambushed Hua Wen today, she asked Yao Shaoyin privately, can Jiang Zhaoyin still go to the government office normally?
Yao Shaoyin knew what she wanted to ask, but a powerful official didn't dare to say more about such a sensitive matter, let alone a powerless ordinary official like him, so he just said it very cautiously. I heard that Jiang Zhaoyin had taken leave recently, but I had indeed not seen him in the government office in the past two days.

Xu Jing suddenly felt enlightened.

She had a premonition that a storm was coming. Maybe the storm was brewing when Xiao Yi sent Xiang You to her side. Unfortunately, Xiao Yi always left early and came back late these days, and she didn't have time to have a good chat with him.

Today, when she was going to follow Yao Shaoyin out of the city to ambush Hua Wen, Xiangyou had always objected, saying that during this period, it would be better for Madam not to run around and stay in Xijing, but there was no reason why Xu Jing took over the case and left it to others halfway. , finally, she sent someone to tell Xiao Yi that she was leaving the city, and followed Yao Shaoyin out.

Thinking of this, Xu Jing completely lost her mind to rest, hung up the curtains on one side of the window, and looked at the stars and moon outside.

Maybe it was because the current situation was too unpredictable. She solved the case for the first time, but she didn't feel as relaxed as the case was solved.

Now Shengshang, Xiao Yi and others are targeting the Jiang family overtly or covertly, but she doesn't think the Jiang family will sit still and wait for death. It will be a matter of time before trouble occurs in Xijing.

Maybe this will happen in the near future, or even... tonight!
As soon as these words appeared in Xu Jing's mind, a thunderous sound of horse hooves suddenly came from not far away. Everyone's expressions suddenly changed, and Xu Jing's carriage also stopped suddenly.

Although Xu Jing has no experience in marching and fighting, she can still tell that such hoofbeats cannot be made by just a few people, at least... an army of troops!
In Dachu, there are hundreds of people for a camp, five camps for the capital, and five capitals for the army.

Come, at least several thousand people!
Outside, Yao Shaoyin and the others were obviously panicked. Xu Jing was sitting in the carriage and could only hear him shout loudly: "Come here, go to the front to see what's going on! Others, hide in the woods aside to find out what's going on." move on!"

Suddenly, a slightly tight voice sounded from the window to the right, "Madam, the approaching horseshoes are coming from the direction of Xijing. I'm afraid something will happen to Xijing. Lang Jun once said that during this period, Xijing doesn't care. It's normal for something to happen on any day. My subordinate's task is to protect my wife carefully. Later, it would be best if we can avoid it. If we can't avoid it, my wife will find the right time to escape, but it's best not to go to Xijing first. run……"

Xu Jing pursed her lips slightly and said, "I understand."

However, just when they were about to hide in the woods nearby, Yao Shaoyin suddenly lost his voice and said: "No! They are coming! We don't have time to hide..." (End of Chapter)
