Before Nanny Lin could speak, Qiao Yan'er struggled and shouted, "No! I won't go back!" Before she could finish her words, she was slapped on the face. It was Nanny Lin who did it, and the latter pinched her
He lowered his chin and said in a cold voice: "Girl, from the moment you step into my Wanhua Building, you should know that you will never leave Wanhua Building in this life, and no one can save you in Hangzhou!"
After ordering people to arrest Qiao Yan'er, Nanny Lin took Capt. Zhao a few steps away and whispered in his ear. The latter said awkwardly: "This... I'm afraid it's not very good.
If something happens..."
Nanny Lin whispered: "This is not the first time. What are you afraid of? If things can be successful, your benefits are indispensable. Don't worry, I'm just a businessman and can't make any waves. Besides, even if you are really capable,
So what, can a powerful dragon still suppress a local snake?"
After several hesitations, Zhao Captou finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try, but it may not work." After that, he raised his hand and said, "Let's go, take this person back!"
"Wait a minute." Hongli said coldly: "The matter has not been tried, and the Yamen has not yet decided. It would be unfair for Mr. Zhao to hand over Miss Qiao to Wanhualou."
Zhao Captou snorted coldly and said: "She is originally from Wanhua Tower, how can she be unfair?"
Xianyue said: "How did Zhao Captou know that she was from Wanhua Tower? Did you see her because you often visited Wanhua Tower? But as far as I know, Emperor Shizu has a training, no matter whether he is an official or a clerk, he is not allowed to
Stepping into the land of fireworks, could it be that Zhao... has forgotten about arresting the head?"
Zhao Captou's face turned green and white. He naturally knew that there was such a precept, but it had not been made into law. Secondly, the emperor had passed away for nearly a hundred years. Who would still remember his words as a golden rule?
Put it behind you. However, even if you don't take it seriously, you must never say these words openly, otherwise it will be disrespectful to Emperor Shizu. This crime, let alone a small arrest, is something that even the court officials cannot afford.
.
Just when Capt. Zhao was in a dilemma about how to answer, Nanny Lin came over to help him out, "Capt. Zhao is dedicated to doing things for the magistrate. He has always worked hard. How could he have the leisure to set foot in my Wanhua Building? Someone made trouble in the slave's house before.
, reported it to the official, Capt. Zhao brought people to calm down the matter, and it was at that time that I met Yan'er."
"Even if we meet him, it doesn't prove that Yan'er is from Wanhualou. He should be brought to the Yamen for trial together. Or..." Xianyue's eyes swept across Zhao and Lin, and she said coldly:
"If it is as reported outside, Wanhua Tower and the government are colluding with each other and working together!"
"Insolent!" Capt. Zhao said with a pale face: "Where did you come from, a bitch who dared to defile a government office? How courageous are you!" After saying that, he raised his hand to slap him, but before it fell, he was already in prison.
Holding it tightly, he turned around and saw that Hongli's face was ashen and he said: "If you dare to touch her hair, I will kill you!"
Although Captou Zhao is just a low-ranking official, he is still a very respectable person in the city of Hangzhou. Not to mention that Captou Zhao's sister is married to the prefect and is the third concubine. She has never been threatened like this.
, forcefully broke away his hand, blushed and said, "Are you threatening me to have my head arrested?"
Hongli's eyes were cold and authentic: "If you insist on thinking like this, of course you can!" Although he wanted to find out how many officials were involved behind Wanhua Tower, he would never put Xianyue in a dangerous place.
The moon is his reverse scale. Anyone who dares to touch it will be killed!
Capt. Zhao felt uncomfortable staring at him and subconsciously wanted to leave. However, as a captivity, if he left just like that, he would have no face in the future. He swallowed hard and said sternly: "I will
Remembering this crime of yours, anyone who comes will be taken back." After a pause, he raised his hand and pointed: "She is the same."
When Nanny Lin saw him pointing at Qiao Yan'er, she said in shock: "Captain Zhao, why are you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Capt. Zhao whispered: "Even if you take them back, it's just a formality. You will go back to Wanhua Building to get the deed of betrayal, and ask the magistrate to stand trial. Those people will naturally
There’s nothing left to say.”
Nanny Lin thought about it for a long time and said, "Okay then, I'll ask Capt. Zhao to keep this girl under guard for me, and don't let her wait for an opportunity to escape."
"Don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on her." After saying this, Capt. Zhao escorted the person and wanted to leave. Si Xi and Xiao Wu were extremely anxious and wanted to accompany Hong Li, but the latter waved their hands to indicate that they did not have to follow.
Come, after hesitating for a moment, he added: "Go and see the Fifth Master and ask him to take more care of you."
"Fifth Master?" Xiaowu looked at Hongli with a puzzled expression. When he was about to ask again, Sixi already said: "Yes, I understand. Fourth Master and his wife will be careful in everything. I will see you after I have arranged everything here."
.”
After they left, Xiao Wu asked in confusion: "Master, who is the Fifth Master that the Emperor was talking about?"
Si Xi nodded his forehead angrily and said, "I don't understand this. I have been eating so many years of rice in vain. Just let me go."
Not to mention Sixi, Capt. Zhao brought Hongli and others to the back of the government office, but instead of taking them to the court, they were taken directly to the prison.
Liu Hu stood at the entrance of the prison and asked: "We are not prisoners, why are we being imprisoned?"
At this point, Capt. Zhao seemed to have some confidence. He met Liu Hu's gaze and sneered: "Just because you made rude remarks in the inn and threatened me to arrest you, you have already made a big mistake. It is natural that you should be imprisoned."
thing."
Hongli sneered and said: "Captain Zhao is so powerful. According to your words, if we say one more thing, won't we be asked to behead?!"
Capt. Zhao thought he was afraid and snorted: "You just need to understand. Be more honest with me before the trial starts, otherwise I'll get you!" before instructing the jailer to watch Hongli and others more strictly.
Behind the scenes, he turned around and left.
The four of them were imprisoned in two cells respectively. Hongli smelled the rotten and damp smell in the cell and sneered: "I can't believe that one day, I will end up in prison."
Liu Hu, who was in the same cell with him, said softly: "Fourth Master, these people have no laws and are reckless. It is very dangerous for you and your wife to be detained here. According to what I see, you should leave as soon as possible. As for everything else,
You can leave the Hualou matter to your subordinates for investigation!"
Hongli clapped his hands and said calmly: "It would be a pity to finally enter the cell and leave like this."
"But those people are colluding secretly. I don't know what they will do. There are no guards around you. What if..." Liu Hu did not dare to think about it anymore and continued to persuade: "Fourth Master, this matter should be left to others.
