Chapter 468: The History of Self-Reproach and the Prisoner
Chu Nanzhi ordered Li Ce to escort Wu Ming down.
Zhao Guangyuan did not shy away in front of everyone, and directly asked Butler Zhao to bring up the previous land deed box and the various booklets from various shops, and said frankly:
"Ms. Chu, I have been tortured by illness for a long time. I am exhausted mentally and physically. I am afraid that my time is running out. I have learned from the pain these days and decided to entrust the Zhao family's property to you. Since you are here today, I also hope that you will
Don't refuse any more. If you can take over the family business, you won't have to worry about it anymore."
"Taigong, don't say such nonsense again."
Chu Nanzhi's mood at this time was really hard to describe.
As soon as the old man gets sick, he will force himself to inherit his millions of belongings. The world of the old man is really confusing.
If this spreads out, people who don't know will really think that they are having an affair with this grizzled old man.
But after all, it was someone's good intentions and repeated attempts, so she had to patiently persuade her: "Grandpa, don't be so pessimistic. Your health is fine. Wu Enrong is also in prison now. The things you asked me to do will be done for you.
Don't make yourself any more trouble, and take good care of yourself."
"Of course I have no doubt about this matter. Madam Chu's intelligence will definitely bring down Wu Enrong this time."
Zhao Guangyuan said with a sincere face: "But I am not using this to negotiate terms with Madam Chu. I sincerely want to entrust the property of my Zhao family to Madam Chu."
Although he is just a merchant, he also knows a lot about the affairs of the court.
It is said that although Wu Enrong and Yue Guifei respect him on the surface, they also despise him as a lowly businessman. They are only greedy for the family fortune in their hands, so they are extremely respectful to them.
At present, all forces are trying every means to amass money and strengthen their own strength. Lin Jinxiao has just inherited the title of king of a foreign vassal, and needs to spend a huge amount of money to maintain and stabilize Pingning Prefecture, which is riddled with holes.
Chu Nanzhi saw that he sincerely wanted to entrust the family business to her, but she found it difficult to accept this kind of thing.
Not to mention the malicious instigation by those with ulterior motives, Lin Jinxiao's side is not easy to explain.
She stood up calmly and warned her in a serious voice: "Don't mention this matter anymore, Grandpa. I have to rush to the county jail, so I won't delay."
Thinking that he was now homeless and a lonely old man, Chu Nanzhi's initial boredom with him had long since disappeared, and she expressed genuine concern: "Grandpa, please take care of yourself and drink less. Although this wine is a fine wine, it is not as good as that star fruit."
It’s not too different, and it’s not suitable for an old lady, so try not to touch it again.”
After saying that, he told Qian Hongwen: "Doctor Qian, please stay here and give me some healing prescriptions for the queen."
"Master, please hurry up and do your work. Just leave it to my disciple."
Qian Hongwen stood up respectfully, and first saw Chu Nanzhi out with Butler Zhao.
Zhao Guangyuan watched her disappear from sight with a lonely expression, unable to recover for a long time:
She is really different from other women.
Even Concubine Yue Guifei is thinking about her family fortune, but she has no interest in such a huge family fortune.
It is really deplorable and infuriating.
In the old house, Lin Jinxiao was practicing calligraphy in the study with his little treasures. Thinking about his wife who was out, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
This girl has been troubled by nightmares lately, and I don’t know if it’s a bad omen.
Thinking about the Qi family's case again, he felt even more aggrieved.
Chu Nanzhi gave clues to the horse stool, and she used the alum powder and crushed lithospermum juice left in Cangshan Mountain to find the place where Zheng's body was buried.
Since the carriage wheels can have the imprint of this object on them, the murderer must also have this object on his body.
Otherwise, why would the murderer replace the original horse stool?
But Chu Nanzhi has now focused entirely on Wu Enrong's case. If the Qi family is not investigated thoroughly in time, something may happen.
Thinking of this, he decided to use Lin Jinmu's method to control the Qi family with force and find the stool as soon as possible.
At this moment, Yin Liuxuan rushed over from the New District.
Lin Jinxiao asked Liu Yun to take care of the little treasures to sleep, and ordered Yin Liuxuan to appoint several teams of guards and hurriedly headed towards the Qi family.
Chu Nanzhi returned to the prison gate of the county captain's house, looked at the two cold bonfires under the night light and suddenly fell into hesitation.
Seeing her stopping, Li Ce looked confused and said, "What's wrong, sister-in-law, do you not want to go in?"
Chu Nanzhi shook his head sadly, and said with a cold smile: "Presumably the person inside doesn't want to see me anymore at this time."
Li Ce also felt that what happened today was very strange. It was clear that Taigong Zhao was not critically ill, but someone sent false news to lure him and his sister-in-law there. What was this person's intention?
I only blame myself for being careless and not catching the boy.
But he still held a trace of luck in his heart, looked at Chu Nanzhi, and said unwillingly: "Just now in prison, Zheng Haichuan heard that King Dongjin went to inspect Wu Enrong's mansion, and his expression changed drastically at that time, and he took the initiative to ask to see his sister-in-law. I miss him
You shouldn’t change your mind so quickly, right?”
Chu Nanzhi closed her eyes helplessly: "If Sanlang doesn't believe it, you can go in and check it out, and you will know once you ask."
Li Cexing rushed in hurriedly.
After a long time, he led Guan Erbai out angrily.
Chu Nanzhi looked at the two people who looked disappointed and said with a wry smile: "How?"
"It's strange. This guy actually said that he just wanted to ask the princess to avenge him. He said that he had not killed Mrs. Zheng. It was Wu Enrong who harmed Mrs. Zheng."
Guan Erbai rubbed his brows in annoyance: "Just now he clearly said that he wanted to tell the princess something important."
"Go and find out who's on duty today."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chu Nanzhi immediately waved his hand: "Forget it, the people in prison are so discerning, it may be difficult to find out who has been in contact with Zheng Haichuan in a hurry."
Glancing at the two of them from the corner of her eye, she changed her words and said: "Guan Siyuan, please go and ask Chen Chuan to lead the sergeants from the coastal defense battalion to temporarily take over the prison of the county government and the county captain's mansion.
Those few are not allowed to have any contact with outsiders."
Guan Erbai and Li Ce both blamed themselves and realized that there was a mole in the prison.
"Don't blame yourself. Even I was deceived into it. I can't blame you."
Chu Nanzhi smiled and comforted: "The jailers in the county government office and the county captain's mansion are all old people in the county. You have just taken over. How can you restrain everyone? Just take good care of the criminals."
, up to Wu Enrong, Zheng Haichuan, down to Du Sankui, Qi Mochen, no more accidents can happen."
"I humble my position and take orders."
Guan Erbai clenched his fist secretly: This time there must be no more mistakes.
Li Ce was so annoyed that he slapped himself in the face.
"Sanlang doesn't have to be like this."
Chu Nanzhi stopped him and said gently: "Go to the county magistrate's house and appoint a few more troops. Come with me to Qi's house immediately. We will find out Zheng's case first before we make any arguments."
Li Ce responded and left. Not long after, a large number of officers came out from the county captain's mansion. Taking advantage of the darkness, the group of people hurried towards the north of the city.
