The Queen Mother's Kitchen Knife

Chapter 15 Peony (1)
Jing Zhihao grabbed Agui's clothes and lifted him up in the air, with an anxious and sinister voice: "Who asked you to deliver the letter!"

Ah Gui screamed: "I don't know!"

"Is it male or female?"

"It's a lady, a lady from a rich family!"

A storm rolled up in Jing Zhihao's eyes: "What does she look like?"

Agui was about to cry: "I don't know, she wears a veil."

"What does the servant girl or servant following her look like?" Since she is a lady from a rich family, there must be servants following her.He wants to find her!Who is it!
"I don't know, I really don't know! She avoided the servant and gave me the letter and money, so I came here. I didn't lie, I really don't know!"

The butler and the guards were very surprised by the suddenly flustered master.What happened to make the master so anxious?
Jing Zhihao didn't give up: "Then what color and style of clothes are they wearing, and how do they dress up? Tell me! If you dare to hide or lie, I will kill you now!"

But Agui is a good boy, he took Tang Jingyue's money, listened to Tang Jingyue's instructions, so he kept shaking his head, and even said very smartly: "My lord, please forgive me, I really didn't pay attention to anything ! I only look at money, really! I dare not hide it! Woohoo, I really didn’t lie..."

Agui burst into tears.

But how could Jing Zhihao let him go.Apart from the little beggar in front of him, he didn't know who else he could find the messenger through.

Throwing Agui on the ground, he said to the guards: "Lock him up and interrogate him by torture!"

For a ten-year-old child who can say "interrogate with torture", Jing Zhihao doesn't care whether it will leave a vicious and cruel infamy.On the other hand, the housekeeper heard something from the conversation between the master and the little beggar, and when he saw the crying little beggar lying limp on the ground, he felt a little compassion.

The butler leaned close to Jing Zhihao's ear and whispered: "Your lord wants to find out who sent the letter? I don't think the kid is hiding it. You can put him back and keep an eye on him to see if there is anyone else." Get in touch with him."

Jing Zhihao looked down at the housekeeper with a gloomy expression on his face.After a little silence, he said, "Let him go."

Seeing that the master had made this decision after much deliberation, the butler was really curious as to who the sender would be so that his master would care so much.

Agui was let go in fear.Seeing that the Prince Regent ignored him, he jumped up from the ground and ran away like a frightened rabbit.

It was so far away from that deserted and solemn mansion, so far away that only the light of the red lanterns could be seen turning into stars in the sky, so far away that the cold and sinister aura no longer lingered around, so far away that he could run away from the Prince Regent's house. When he saw his sight, Ah Gui slowed down.Finally, he sat down on the cold ground, gasping for breath as if he had just faced suffocation, like a stranded fish.

"It's terrible, it's terrible..." With lingering fear in his heart, Agui hoped that he would never see the Prince Regent again.

Jing Zhihao returned to the study with the letter and told everyone to go out.Close the door of the study, and read the letter carefully again under the bright candlelight.

If it's fake, then there must be someone who is familiar with him or Yue'er secretly planning a conspiracy.If it's true...Jing Zhihao couldn't believe it.How can a person who has been dead for five years come back to life?
He read the letter carefully, and saw that he had seen him before, and that he could not find him because of his poor health, Jing Zhihao wondered how Yue'er's physical condition was... not good?
