Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 259 Blackmail
The matter of the midwife's son involved the government, so Zhao Wangshu changed his previous idea and went to find Yao Shanzhi and told her the matter.

"It's impossible for that yamen officer to just commit this crime. There must be other crimes. We need to find more evidence to expose his crimes and let him receive the punishment he deserves." Zhao Wangshu said to Yao Shanzhi.

"It's necessary." Yao Shan Zhi has a temperament that hates evil. "He is a small government servant, and such an important matter as replacing prisoners cannot be done by him alone. Maybe even the governor of Jingzhao was involved."

Zhao Wangshu was shocked after hearing what Yao Shanzhi said, "If this matter really involves Jingzhao Prefecture, then it will be a big deal."

"Don't want to check anymore?" Yao Shanzhi's eyes widened.

"We must investigate, but we must be careful and not alert the enemy." Zhao Wangshu said seriously.

"Over at the government, I'll find someone to investigate, while you concentrate on dealing with that vicious woman Fan Jinyao." Yao Shanzhi said.

"When the two maids recover from their injuries, send them to the concubine, and then let the concubine deal with Fan Jinyao." Zhao Wangshu had already thought about it.

"That must be a good show." Yao Shanzhi said with a smile.

After the two discussed it, Zhao Wangshu said goodbye and went home. When passing by an alley, a person suddenly jumped out of the alley and the carriage stopped suddenly.

Zhao Wangshu was thrown forward by inertia, but fortunately Hong Chang supported her.

"What's going on?" Luzhi opened the car door and asked.

"A man suddenly rushed out of the alley and fell in front of the car." The coachman's voice was a little panicked. "The carriage did not knock down anyone."

"Go down and see what's going on?" Zhao Wangshu ordered.

The coachman jumped out of the carriage, went over and turned the man over and said, "Girl, this is the eldest young master from the mansion before."

I saw Zhao He in Yulanwashe last time and ignored him. This time, the man lay directly in front of the carriage, regardless of whether it was justified or not.

"Send it to the medical clinic over there." Zhao Wangshu frowned.

The driver carried Zhao He on his back and headed to the hospital.

"Is he being chased and beaten by the thugs from the gambling house again?" Hong Chang guessed.

Luzhi glanced into the alley, "I didn't see the thugs from the gambling house chasing him out, so that's probably not the case."

When he arrived at the hospital, he asked the doctor to check Zhao He's pulse.

The doctor sitting in the hall felt for his pulse and shook his head, "This young master's internal organs are seriously damaged and he must have a good life, otherwise..."

Zhao Wangshu frowned, "What else?"

"Otherwise, his life may be in danger." The doctor sitting in the hall sighed, "His body may have been abused and beaten for a long time. It has been weak for a long time and has no good health to support him. Now he has been hit hard by external forces, causing damage to his internal organs. "

"He was beaten, not because of his family, but because of his gambling." Zhao Wangshu said.

"Are we still going to prescribe medicine?" the doctor asked.

Zhao Wangshu thought for a while and said, "Please ask the doctor to prescribe a prescription first and give him a dose of medicine. When his family comes, we will see if he can be treated."

The doctor was stunned, "Isn't the girl a member of his family?"

"He is a member of the tribe and we are estranged from each other. He just fell on the roadside. I saw him and sent him to the hospital." Zhao Wangshu explained.

"The girl is really kind-hearted." The doctor sitting in the hall started writing a prescription.

While the medicine boy was taking medicine, Zhao Wangshu asked Hong Chang, "Where do those people in the mansion live now?"

"I heard last time that they moved to Yaliao Lane in the north of the city." Hong Chang replied.

"Find an errand boy and tell them about Zhao He entering the hospital and ask them to come quickly." Zhao Wangshu didn't want to care about Zhao He, but he couldn't leave him in the hospital and asked his family to take care of him as soon as possible. Hong Chang went out to look for someone, while Zhao Wangshu sat in the hospital waiting.

After a while, the medicine was boiled and allowed to cool. The medicine boy poured the medicine into Zhao He's mouth.

After drinking the medicine, Zhao He woke up quickly. Knowing that it was Zhao Wangshu who sent him to the hospital, he immediately said, "It was your carriage that knocked me down. Please pay for it."

Zhao Wangshu did not expect that Zhao He's first words after waking up would be to ask her for money, "I sent you to the hospital to save you. Not only are you ungrateful, but you are also blackmailing me. You are so shameless."

Zhao He refused and said, "Your carriage hit me, shouldn't you pay for it? Don't think that it will be fine just by sending me to the hospital. I was seriously injured."

Zhao Wangshu was really angry at Zhao He's shamelessness, "Your injury was obviously caused by your fall and had nothing to do with my carriage. I kindly sent you to the hospital. Not only did you not thank me, you also blackmailed me in return." Me, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?”

"If your carriage hadn't suddenly appeared, I wouldn't have been so frightened that I fell down. You would have to pay for the silver and a thousand taels." Zhao Heshi said loudly.

"Hong Chang, go report to the official and ask for disgrace to come and examine Young Master Zhao to see if his injuries were caused by a carriage or a thug from a gambling house." Zhao Wangshu Leng said. Said with a face.

"If you report to the official, please report to the official. Do you think I am afraid of you? My aunt is the queen of the court." Zhao He said with a serious expression.

Zhao Wangshu found it funny when he saw Zhao He moving out the queen as a supporter. This man didn't know that the queen had been banned for many days, which meant that deposing the queen was too cumbersome, otherwise the emperor would have abolished the queen and established a new emperor.

"Don't be afraid, just wait." Zhao Wangshu sneered, "Blackmail, follow the law of twenty sticks. Don't regret it when you get slapped."

Zhao He was speechless for a moment. He thought that by removing the queen as his backer, he would be able to make the other party fearful, but he did not expect that the other party would not be affected at all.

Seeing that the maid was about to go out, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, "If you don't want to pay, I won't pay. If you have anything to say, please tell me. Why are you such a barbaric woman?"

Zhao Wangshu laughed angrily, "You are quite good at confusing right and wrong."

After saying that, Zhao Wangshu took Hong Chang and the others out. Zhao He became anxious, "Hey, I told you not to pay any more, why do you still want to report it to the official?"

Zhao Wangshu stopped and looked back at Zhao He, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, "Who said I was going to report to the official?"

Zhao He was stunned and didn't know why, "Didn't you just say..."

"Oh, that." Zhao Wangshu waved his hand with a look of disdain, "I just scared you, I didn't expect you to actually believe it."

Zhao He's face turned ugly instantly, and then Mrs. Zhao rushed over, "He'er, He'er, where are you injured?"

"Hey, I'm fine." Zhao He pulled out his injured arm.

"Madam, long time no see." Zhao Wangshu looked at the old Mrs. Zhao and felt quite sad.

A few years ago, she was still a pampered lady, but now she is wearing patched coarse cloth clothes. She looks old and almost unrecognizable.

Only then did Mrs. Zhao see Zhao Wangshu standing aside, "Are you Wangshu?"

"It's me." Zhao Wangshu smiled.

"Long time no see. How are you now?" Mrs. Zhao asked.

Zhao Wangshu smiled and said, "I'm fine."

"Mother, do you know her?" Zhao He asked in surprise.

Mrs. Zhao was even more surprised than him, "This is your clan sister."

Zhao He now understood why Zhao Wangshu sent him to the hospital, "Since we are clan sisters, we are family. clan sister, look at your clothes, you are not short of money, so I lent you a thousand taels of silver to clan brother. I’ll pay you back another day.”

"Madam, it's okay. I'll leave first." Zhao Wangshu didn't answer his words and walked away.

"Hey, hey, clan sister, don't leave." Zhao He wanted to chase Zhao Wangshu, but Mrs. Zhao held him back.
