Wu Chao's expression changed slightly, and he took a sip of tea uncomfortably.
He always felt that the way Miss Xu admired his appearance just now was too direct and unconcealed...
After all, he has seen this kind of sight too many times.
That means he is in a good mood today.
If he was stared at like this in the past, he would never be able to sit here with such a good temper.
Seeing the young man's slightly tensed expression, Xu Mingyi immediately reflected on his actions just now.
Although everyone loves to admire beauties, people with a temperament like Wu Shisun are still destined to only watch from a distance. If they are not careful, they may get angry or have wild thoughts.
At this moment, Zhu Xiu, who was supposed to be guarding the carriage outside the teahouse, went up to the second floor.
"Girl, Akui just sent it here, saying it was a letter from Mr. Zhan to the girl."
Zhu Xiu handed over a letter.
What kind of gentleman?
Wu Chao frowned slightly.
Just deliver the letter, and even deliver it to his teahouse. Could it be that this Mr. Zhan is very important to Xu Mingyi?
So much so that even her maid had to rush to deliver a letter to her when she saw this person?
And sometimes the girl Xu was very slow to reply to his letters. Thinking about it this way, he didn't deserve this kind of treatment...
Xu Mingyi immediately opened the letter and read it.
When she unfolded the letter, Wu Chao glanced at it 'accidentally'.
With this scan, the word "Zhao Zhao" was found.
The other party's surname is Zhan, so he is obviously a foreigner.
How can there be such no rules in terms of titles?
As a result, Wu Chao lost the slightest impression of Mr. Zhan, whom he had never met before.
Xu Mingyi quickly read the letter.
The letter didn't say much, and it was indeed Zhan Yunzhu's handwriting that was correct.
It roughly stated - what happened before was my father's fault, and I failed to notice it in time. But today's situation was all planned by Zhao Zhao, which really surprised me. At this point, the grudges in the family can be written off. From now on.
, I hope Zhaozhao will cherish his own body.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Xu Mingyi's mouth.
Sure enough, it was still the same as in the previous life. After the incident was revealed, he easily put all the blame on his father, and he was always the one who "failed to notice".
Write it off?
The accounts of Zhenguo Gongfu and Zhan Qian can roughly be offset.
However, his share of Yunzhu would have to be calculated separately afterwards.
"Let people continue to keep an eye on him." Xu Mingyi pressed the letter under his hand and ordered Zhu Xiu.
Listening to the meaning of the other party's letter, there was actually a sense of farewell.
Of course you can leave if you want.
But you have to keep your head.
There has been no result on Xia Han's matter in the past few days. In order to prevent extraneous matters, and because she had the idea that Zhan Yunzhu might be able to help, she had just kept people watching his every move secretly.
After Zhu Xiu agreed, he immediately retreated.
Wu Chao looked slightly relaxed.
He is not without judgment.
It can be seen from Miss Xu's expression alone that this Mr. Zhang is indeed very important.
It's so important that people need to keep an eye on it.
Well, it’s okay for him not to want such preferential treatment.
…
The sun is gradually turning westward.
However, the number of people outside the Beijing Government Office increased instead of decreasing.
Because Li Ji and others had not returned yet, Ji Dong had no choice but to take a break and went back to the backyard to drink water and rest.
Xia Han was also invited to sit in the inner hall.
However, Xu Ying refused to leave the courtroom and stood there, facing the crowd of people watching behind her with her thin but straight back, and those who were still pointing maliciously.
At this time, these discussions suddenly shifted——
Everyone's attention was attracted by a young man who suddenly appeared.
"Sir, someone from the front office came and said that there is important evidence to be presented regarding the case of Young Master Xia!" A government official quickly walked into the backyard and reported to Ji Dong.
Important evidence?
Okay, this is drama again.
Ji Dong thought for a moment, put down the half-eaten sesame seed cake in his hand, took a cloth to wipe his mouth clean, straightened his official robe, and went to the front hall.
But the result was completely different from what he expected.
He originally thought that this was another way for the Xia family to exonerate Xia Han. All he had to do was act with him regardless of his conscience, but who knew that a young man who was quite familiar to him came instead.
Son of Divination.
He was also Xu Yun’s apprentice in his early years, and he was quite a famous talent in the capital—
"Zhan Yunzhu, the son of the criminal Zhan Qian, has physical evidence to present to Lord Ji."
A young man in a plain white robe knelt in the hall, with a look of determination on his slightly pale and tired face: "In the case of Miss Xu, it was only after seeing this letter that Zhan learned that my father was indeed
There is no excuse for being an accomplice. However, it is true that my father was threatened by a letter from the second son of the Xia family and took all the blame!"
As he spoke, he knocked his head heavily and said in a deep voice: "My father should bear the consequences for the crimes he committed, but we cannot let the real culprit go unpunished! Zhan, a mere scholar, is now the son of a sinner, and he knows it
You may speak lightly, but you must not just watch the truth being buried, and the victims cannot seek justice——"
Xia Han, who had just returned from the invitation, changed his face slightly when he heard this.
The nearly two hours of waiting in the Yamen were unprecedentedly long for him.
This invisible suffering made him gradually lose his usual calmness and patience.
At this moment, he almost sneered uncontrollably as he looked at the frail young man who suddenly appeared and testified against him generously and bluntly.
Although he had always only communicated news with Zhan Qian and did not have much interaction with this young master of the Zhan family, he would not believe it at all if he said that he knew nothing about it.
He's quite the showman.
But for the other party to confront the Xia family so directly, did he think he died too slowly?
There are more and more lunatics getting in the way!
"What? Taking the blame?"
"What's going on?"
"Tsk... If this is really the case, this Mr. Zhan is actually a scholar with a clear conscience..."
"Master Zhan is a well-known talent. He was originally going to participate in the Qiu Wei Festival this year...but now something like this happened at home, and his great future was ruined overnight."
"It's such a pity..."
While everyone was discussing, Ji Dong had ordered someone to present the letter.
What is said in the letter is exactly what Mr. Zhan said. It can be seen that Zhan Qian is indeed taking the blame for others——
only……
"Master Ji, I have never written this letter. Your Excellency, you can also ask someone to verify the handwriting." Xia Han said coldly.
Ji Dong expected this.
This was also what Zhan Yunzhu expected.
A single letter, apparently ghostwritten by someone else, can prove Xia Han - he is not that naive yet.
But what he can't do, someone else can do it.
It doesn't matter if he misreads the situation.
You are already at a dead end, so why be afraid of taking a gamble?
…
The Golden Crow sets in the west, and the afterglow spreads across the sky and the earth.
In Xia Mansion, a large pile of soil has been dug out from the flat ground after the rockery was removed.
At this time, a nurse holding a shovel and sweating profusely changed his face suddenly.
He looked nervously at the man directing at the side and said, "Second Butler, there seems to be something down here!"
