Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 344, Out of the City

Zhao Zhuoxiang looked at the top of her head, and really wanted to tell Xiao Qing that she had a family, she had biological parents, her home was not in Yaoshan, but in Shangjing, her status was so noble, it was all caused by that bastard Yu Xiucheng!
"Okay!" Then Zhao Zhuoxiang took out a letter from his sleeve: "Come on, send this letter to Yu Xiangfu's house in Shangjing within two hours, and remember to ask Master Yu to reply before tonight Otherwise, the Zhao family and the Xiao family will definitely come to meet each other the next day!"

The messenger on the side took the letter, answered yes, took the letter and walked out quickly.

Xiao Qing looked at the letter he handed over, had he already prepared it?
"Okay, the letter has been delivered, you get up!" Zhao Zhuoxiang stretched out his hand to help her, but when he thought of her kneeling down on him for such a family, he withdrew his hand angrily, turned his back and said, "You will accompany me tonight I'll go to Zhuyan Envoy's house, I want to see how powerful this Yan envoy who is making troubles in the city is, and whether that bastard Yu Xiucheng can't control him anymore!"

Xiao Qing didn't know who Yu Xiucheng he was talking about, but when he heard the name, his heart suddenly stopped for some reason, as if he was overwhelmed by something.

"Yes!" Xiao Qing stood up in response, and it took a while for her heart to calm down a little.

She had never experienced that kind of feeling before, she just felt as if something had stabbed her in the heart.

……

At the end of the Shen Dynasty, in the main hall of Zhu's house, Zhu Changyun was sitting in plain clothes at the rosewood Eight Immortals table drinking tea. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Shi Jinkai who was sitting next to him.

Shi Jinkai was smiling and waiting for him to speak.

After a long while, Zhu Changyun said with a smile that was not a smile: "Master Shi, you manage Yaoshan County very well, or you can say that the Holy One has a unique vision, you are well versed in officialdom, and you are used to turning a blind eye to it. It's a long-term solution, so I believe that no matter what happens in the near future, you will still do it this way!"

Shi Jin clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Yes, under the support of Mr. Zhu these years, the lower officials have a little understanding of how to be an official, and they can live through these years safely!"

Zhu Changyun touched the bracelet on his waist and said nothing.

Shi Jinkai thought for a while and said with a smile: "My lord, it was an unforgivable crime for Mrs. Xiao to offend you in court last time. She was cursing in the yamen before and had trouble in court. She was young when she was dismissed from office. So many things happened again, so she was not dealt with. It's just that she has changed too much this year, done too many things that are beneficial to the court and the people, and has a high prestige outside. My lord, the court has issued an order to enshrine her as righteous Wife, she has gone to the county government to make a fuss about her daughter and grandson. If the lower officials don't deal with it, if she sues to Shangjing, it will be difficult for her to go up and down! When the imperial court arranges for other people to come, Sir Shi will inevitably prevaricate!"

Zhu Changyun smiled: "Master Shi, it's not your credit that this tricky woman was named a righteous woman. Don't tell me who the court sent. Come on, do you think I'm afraid of them? Don't talk nonsense, if there's nothing else, you can go back as soon as possible!"

Shi Jinkai lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "Yes, my lord, it's my duty to ask for an order for the Xiao family to be a righteous wife, my lord should think twice!"

If he didn't do this, he would be abandoned by the people of Yaoshan sooner or later. This righteous woman means a lot to him. What does he know as a salt official?
Zhu Changyun became impatient, and scolded: "Okay, Shi Jinkai, I don't have time to waste time here, I don't know where Xiao's grandson and daughter are, she invited you to be a lobbyist, then you can help Look, don't waste your time with me, I won't send Master Shi off!"

Saying that, Zhu Changyun got up, flicked his long sleeves, and turned to go into the inner room.

Shi Jinkai knew this would happen a long time ago, so he got up to send Zhu Changyun away. Although he was angry, he had no choice but to walk out of Zhu's house alone.

Others said it slightly, Xiao Shi found him the wrong person, he did his best.

……

At this moment, Ah Luan, who was far outside Yaoshan County, had already found clues. He inquired about the news in Fangjia Village. Yesterday evening, there was indeed a carriage stopping on the village road.

Except for Fang Huai's family which has a carriage, other families in Fangjia Village don't even have a donkey cart. Ah Lan heard that Fang Huai's family lived in the county town these days for the porcelain competition, and they didn't return to the village for several days. It might have been left by the person who tied Qiao Yu Qiaocheng last night.

Ah Luan followed the carriage mark to the road, and the carriage mark disappeared.

There was no other road near the main road, so he didn't know if the carriage had entered the city, so he ran back to the yamen and asked when the city gate was closed yesterday. When he learned that it was the end of You hour, Ah Luan immediately concluded that the carriage had not entered the city.

Because Qiao Cheng and Qiao Yu went up the mountain at about the same time, and the villagers saw the carriage disappear, it was more than three quarters of the unitary time, if they rushed back to the county town, they would not be able to enter the city.

After hearing the news, Ah Luan asked the yamen to find a horse, and hurried out of the city, looking for wheel marks along the road.

The carriage wheels on the avenue were strewn about, and I couldn't find any wheel marks from yesterday.

One road outside Yaoshan City is the road leading to Shangjing, and the other is the road leading to Beirong. The road leading to Shangjing is flat all the way. Only when you are approaching Shangjing, there are teahouses, post houses, and wine shops. This road does not have the ability to hide The place.

And the other is the road leading to Beirong. On this road, only Xiao Dutong's camp was stationed. There are several cottages near the camp because of the camp.

Ah Luan thought of Xiao Dutong, and many strange memories emerged in his mind. He actually knew that Xiao Dutong and Zhu Changyun were friends for many years, and they were members of the Yu family in the court.

At the beginning, the shopkeeper sent Xiao Dutong away from Shangjing because of a map, cutting off Xiao Dutong's dream of returning to the court. Thinking of this, the next moment Ah Luan seemed to think of something, he couldn't stop for a moment, because of a thought Appearing suddenly, he clamped the horse's belly, tightened the rein, and headed towards the Beirong road.

He should have known where Qiao Cheng and Qiao Yu were hiding. He was careless. Zhu Changyun is a narrow-minded person who does things cleanly and will not leave any tails behind. How could he tie them up himself? He will find someone else to do it.

Who dares to touch the shopkeeper in Yaoshan, except for the grudge against the shopkeeper, no one dares to touch, not to mention two big living people, who were carried from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain alive, and sent to them without anyone noticing. If the carriage is taken away, who else can there be except the people in the barracks?
When Ah Luan thought about the honor and disgrace and safety of the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper he was about to face, the danger he was facing was nothing.

He tore off the corner cover of his clothes, took off his arrest uniform, put on the plain clothes underneath, and hurried to the camp left by Xiao Dutong.

A moment later, Ah Luan tied the horse to a tree one mile away from the tent, dismounted, and quietly approached the tent alone.

The camp covers an area of ​​two or three miles, and there is no shelter everywhere. He can only approach it when it gets dark.
