Across the Market

Chapter 226

Zhao Jing felt sorry for her daughter's sensibility, and at the same time blamed herself for being incomprehensible. She only gently hugged her daughter in her arms, unable to say a word.

Now that the yamen has been burned, Zhao Jing and his son have no place to live.Xie Tong lived in an inn, and on the surface he came to Jiangnan to play and relax, so it was inconvenient to get too close to Zhao Jing.Besides, the inn was simple, Zhao Kou was burned now, and it was inconvenient to live in a simple inn when he needed to recuperate.

At this time, the fourth prince also rushed over upon hearing the sound. Seeing that the girl in Zhao Jing's arms was seriously injured, his face immediately changed.

"Hurry up and ask for a doctor." The fourth prince squatted beside Zhao Kou, looking at her burning red half of her face, his eyes became more and more sinister, and his fists were clenched loudly.No matter how cruel he was, Li Qin would never attack a child.It is really abhorrent to attack an innocent child and use an innocent child to pinch other people's weaknesses.

"Come on, let me hug you." The fourth prince gently touched Zhao Jing's arm, motioning for him to let go, and then slowly hugged Zhao Kou into his arms. Seeing her turn her head to look at him, the fourth prince raised the corner of his mouth He smiled and asked, "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Zhao Kou wanted to reach out to grab it, but was held down by the fourth prince. She stayed there obediently, looked at the fourth prince seriously, and cried again when she thought of Mother Bao who died trying to save her. Nose said, "Mama Bao is dead, woohoo, I want Mama Bao to play with me."

She pointed at the dead body wrapped in straw mats, crying more and more agitatedly, her small body writhing vigorously.

The fourth prince said: "The burns on your face need to be dealt with in time. Let's go, uncle will take you to another courtyard." After finishing speaking, the fourth prince looked at Zhao Jing and said, "Master Zhao is working for the court, but he caused the daughter to ruin his appearance. Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, this prince will not just sit idly by. The yamen has been burned down, Ling Qianjin needs to take good care of it, and go to another courtyard with this prince."

Zhao Jing's eyes were full of unbearable pain and deep-seated hatred. He frowned tightly, his eyes fell on his daughter's face, and then he bowed his fists to the fourth prince and said, "Thank you, fourth prince, for your kindness. Parents, you have to deal with large and small cases in the county at all times. Although the place where you live was burned, the front hall was not destroyed. The fourth prince is benevolent, and I will thank the fourth prince in advance on Kouer's behalf."

Zhao Jing didn't quite understand why the fourth prince would be so angry when he saw that Kouer was injured, but since the fourth prince was willing to ask a doctor to look after his daughter's injury in front of such a human being, then his daughter would not be in danger.He was also relieved that his daughter was entrusted to the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince glanced at the county government office again, seeing that the fire had gradually subsided, he nodded at Zhao Jing and said, "Then Mr. Zhao, please go ahead." After finishing speaking, he hugged Zhao Kou and left alone.

Zhao Tiehua also had the same doubts as Zhao Jing in her heart, why the fourth prince treated Kouer so well... There was something hidden in her heart, Zhao Tiehua became fascinated for a moment, and her eyes followed the figure of the fourth prince until the tall and slender figure Disappearing in the darkness, she gradually retracted her gaze.

But he didn't know that Zhu Lu saw all this, Zhu Lu lowered his eyes slightly, and pursed his thin lips tightly.

"My lord, my lord, it's not good." A Ming suddenly ran over staggeringly, maybe he didn't step on his feet firmly. When he ran to Zhao Jing, he bent his knees and knelt down in front of Zhao Jing. He said, "Zhang Facai died in prison, and at the same time, two yamen servants also died in prison."

Zhao Jing's hands were tightly clenched into fists as he stood by his side, his eyes were dark and bloodshot.

After hearing Xie Tong's words, Zhu Fu didn't go out all day, but stayed at home to study with his younger siblings.

Suddenly there was a sound in the yard, it seemed to be the voice of the mother asking if something happened to the elder brother, the two said a few words, the mother's voice was obviously higher, and then seemed to be concerned about something, and suppressed the voice again.

Inside the house, Sister Nuan shook her head, stretched her neck to look outside, and Zhu Fu pulled her sister's head back.

"Sister Nuan is good, study with my younger brother, and the second sister goes out to have a look." After finishing speaking, she got up and walked out the door.

Outside, Zhu Lu was standing in the middle of the yard, his head and face were black and gray, and he was in a panic.Zhu Fu was startled when he saw it, and hurried over and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Wei Sanniang's eyes were red, and with tears in her eyes, she said, "Don't let Sister Xi know about this, that child..." She choked up for a while, as if she didn't want to say any more.
