Our Mommy is the Best Investigator! Chapter 573

Chapter 573 Risking himself

It rained continuously for several days.

Chu Nanzhi stayed at the mansion for the past two days, together with Ji Huazhen and Cui Shi, led the ceremony officials to discuss the matter of conferment, inspected various procedures, and calmly waited for Han Yicheng to come to deliver the letter.

With the assassination incident that day, the old Yicheng must be eager to catch Concubine Yue Gui and Nandu King earlier, so she is not worried that the old Yicheng will not take it seriously.

In the early morning of September 26th, just after dawn, the city was already buzzing.

Although it was still raining heavily, many people rushed towards the Donghua River outside the city.

Today is the day for the execution of members of the Qi family and disciples, and everyone is rushing to join in the fun, wanting to see how these villains who have been domineering in Luyan Port for decades are subduing the law.

It was a happy thing, but Liu Yun became sentimental.

While her son-in-law went to the state capital, she left her daughters and Chu Wenbi behind, and discussed with everyone in the inner hall: "Qi Xiaolang is the flesh and blood of your uncle after all, let's go and see him off for the last time."

When the uncle was mentioned, Chu Nanzhu was the first to lower his face: "Mother, why bother to pity him, he is responsible for what happened to him today, since the moment he was born, has he ever really treated the uncle as his biological father?"

Chu Nanxiang also disobeyed ten thousand people: "Mother's kindness is probably misplaced. Qi Xiaolang's surname is Qi, and his surname is not Chu. Have you forgotten how his family has persecuted our family all these years?"

Chu Wenbi just kept silent, although he was a little sad, but thinking of his brother's unwilling eyes before he died, he finally followed his daughters resolutely and said: "Go by yourself, don't drag them Three sisters."

Seeing the father and daughter fighting against each other, Liu Yun felt very aggrieved, and looked at Chu Nanzhi in embarrassment.

Chu Nanzhi just smiled lightly: "Mother, don't worry about it. Even if the uncle is still alive, Qi Xiaolang's death today is deserved and he is not innocent. Those innocent people who were persecuted by him are the ones to be pitied."

Every time she thinks of Mrs. Zhang who hanged herself to death, Chu Nanzhi still feels uneasy.

Not to mention seeing off Qi Xiaolang, even looking at him one more time would make her feel disgusted. If she really went to the execution ground, she would be unable to bear it and would go up and poke him ten thousand holes herself.

Besides, she can't go anywhere these days, so she can only stay at the mansion and wait for news from Han Yicheng.

After all, such an opportunity is fleeting. Once Concubine Yue Gui and Nandu Wang are alerted, it will not be easy to hold them back.

Everyone is rushing to join in the fun today, and I don't know if those two will be free.

Under the joint pressure of the father and daughter, Liu Yun finally gave up her plan to collect the corpses of the Qi family's mother and son, and continued to go out to take care of the house's chores.

Chu Nanzhi instructs Sang Qi to follow Chu Nanxiang and Chu Nanzhu to the restaurant to find out Xie Jingchen's whereabouts today.

After staying until noon, Han Yicheng from the post house finally sneaked into the house.

Seeing Chu Nanzhi, Han Yicheng reported happily: "The matter that the concubine told me has finally come to fruition. The official has asked my nephew to send someone to guard the post house. I also asked the concubine to go to the siege and rescue the official."

"I'll go right away."

Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but feel elated: "Master Yi Cheng hurried back to the post house immediately, he must keep an eye on the top and bottom of the post house, if Prince Xie goes to inquire about Ben Gong's whereabouts, just say you don't know about it."

"The next official takes orders."

Han Yicheng was so excited that he wanted to put on a bamboo hat and leave mysteriously.

Chu Nanzhi immediately called He Ying, and signaled: "You tell someone to send the order to Peng County Magistrate, saying that there are three assassins infiltrating the Chengdong Posthouse, and in order to do harm to Concubine Yue Gui, ask him to personally bring people to the posthouse to arrest the assassins. .”

After thinking about it, she continued with her brows flickering and her tone suddenly became deep: "Go to the Donghua River in person and tell His Highness secretly that Ben Gong and Prince Xie are also in the post."

"This"

He Ying frowned slightly, not knowing what the princess's intention was in making such an arrangement.

"Go."

Chu Nanzhi hurriedly urged.

After He Ying left, Sang Qi had returned from the restaurant. Knowing that Xie Jingchen was still in the restaurant today and hadn't gone to watch outside the city, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sighed softly: "It seems that this apprentice is destined to The son took it all."

Then he ordered Sang Qi to return to the restaurant and told Xie Jingchen to invite him to meet him at the posthouse.

Sang Qi followed Chu Nanzhi's instructions and arrived at the restaurant again. When she saw Xie Jingchen, he was playing chess with Uncle Xie Liu in the courtyard.

This little girl is Xiao Zhizhi's servant, Xie Jingchen treated her very politely, and asked gently: "But what is your master's order?"

Sang Qi glanced at Sixth Uncle Xie beside him, but hesitated to speak.

"It's okay, you just say it's okay."

Xie Jingchen said with a big grin.

"My master said that today everyone went outside the city to watch the excitement, and wanted to invite Prince Xie to meet him at the posthouse in the east of the city."

Hearing the name of the post house, Sixth Uncle Xie couldn't help but shudder, and looked at Xie Jingchen cautiously.

"Okay, you go back and tell your master, I will go right away."

Xie Jingchen suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Probably guessed that Xiao Zhizhi felt that the post house was much safer than the restaurant, so she invited herself there.

She is so cautious, afraid of causing any gossip, and she is doing it to return the ten thousand taels of silver, which is really chilling.

After sending Sang Qi away, Sixth Uncle Xie asked vigilantly: "This princess actually invited you to meet at the posthouse, did you notice something?"

"It's possible."

After being reminded by Sixth Uncle Xie, Xie Jingchen immediately reacted: "Could it be that she wants me to help his husband expose the adulterous affair between Concubine Yue and King Nandu?"

"This is absolutely not possible."

Uncle Xie Liu immediately stopped him and said, "Jingchen, you can't be used by her. We just need to disclose the news to King Pingning, and let King Pingning touch Nilin. Then the emperor of the Dahe Empire will be angry." As for him, after being reprimanded, it is easy for you to get that woman."

"But in this way, little Zhizhi will always be jealous of me."

Xie Jingchen frowned sadly: "I would rather suffer some setbacks than let her feel resentment towards me."

Paused, he couldn't help sighing again: "What's more, she put herself in danger. If I don't go, let her fall into the schemes of Concubine Yue Gui and Nandu King, how can I bear it."

"That's not okay, because you are a woman, you go to anger the emperor of the Dahe Empire. If you ruin the mission of peace talks and return to Shita City, how will you explain to your father?"

Uncle Xie urged indignantly.

"Uncle Six is serious."

Xie Jingchen said in a cold voice: "If the peace talks fail, wouldn't it be exactly what those generals and the second brother wished for?"

Seeing that Uncle Xie Liu still had an unwilling face, he had no choice but to persuade him patiently:

"Don't worry, Sixth Uncle, this matter will not affect the peace talks between the two countries. Even if I expose this matter, the emperor of the Dahe Empire will not blame me. It is nothing more than provoking the envy of Concubine Yue and the King of Nandu. But so what, we are not the people of Dahe, it is the emperor of the Dahe Empire who decides whether to fight or not."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shiyao walked into the yard without making a sound. Listening to Prince Xie's words, her pretty face was darkened and extremely gloomy.
