Darughachi Mansion.

Qimuge looked at Nan Batian who was leaving and said with a slightly condensed gaze, "Master, do you really believe that he can help us find the weapons?"

Yelu took a sip of tea and said, "Yes."

Qimuge frowned and said, "What if we can't find it? When the inspector comes, how will we report this to him? This matter has already been reported to him!"

After hearing this, Yelu sneered and said, "If we can't find him, then he is the person in charge of Zoroastrianism, and he was the one who planned this incident."

"Ah? Master, are you going to abandon Nan Batian?"

Yelu looked at Qimuge and said, "Haha, a waste, why keep him?"

"As the leader of a gang, he was played so badly by a hall master. He is simply incompetent. His behavior in recent times is too weird. I think there is something wrong. However, the focus now is to find the weapons. I can only let it go. It is not convenient to conduct a strict investigation on him. Otherwise, can I let him go so easily after what happened today?"

"Master, are you saying that you don't believe that Nan Batian is innocent?"

Qimuge looked at Yelu, who sneered, "Innocent? Are there any Han people who are innocent? I just need him to do something. If he can't find the weapons within fifteen days, or is found to have a bigger problem, then..."

Yelu stood up and said to Qimuge: "Send two hundred black cavalry into the city."

"Yes, I understand."

Qimugege bowed to show that he understood, and he really understood.

Nan Batian's value of use is limited, his position has been shaken, and there are still so many black spots that have not been explained clearly, resulting in half of the people in the city now saying that Nan Batian may be in collusion with Zoroastrianism.

Just imagine if the inspector arrived, half of the city would say that Nan Batian was colluding with Zoroastrianism, but Yelu would insist that Nan Batian was not.

What good end will Yelu get?

It can be said that unless Nan Batian can really find that batch of weapons and capture the Zoroastrian demon and use the human head to clear the suspicion on himself, he will have to bear the blame.

As for whether Nan Batian still has any value to him, such as his martial arts skills as the number one man in Mianshui, I'm sorry, that's really not worth mentioning.

In Yelu's eyes, the masters of Hua Jin are just a group of stronger subordinates. Unless they reach the Qi and Blood Bao Dan realm, they are all ants. Of course, even if they reach the Qi and Blood Bao Dan realm, they have to kneel down and beg for surrender in front of the powerful imperial court!

The imperial court is Yelu's greatest confidence. As for a local gang or its leader, in his eyes, they are just small figures who can be abandoned at will without any scruples.

……

The headquarters of the fishing gang!

Nan Batian sat back in his seat safely. Looking at the bruised Qin Ying, he couldn't help but say, "Qin Ying, you are such a loser. You can't even do such a small thing?"

Qin Ying had a hint of resentment in his eyes when he heard this, but he soon knelt on the ground and said, "Boss, I am incompetent. Please punish me!"

Nan Batian said, "Humph, forget it. I won't talk about this this time. Also, notify the merchants in the city that the Mianshui River will continue to be closed for at least half a month. If they want to ship goods, they can come to me. The price is still 50% profit. Of course, if they are not satisfied, they can go to Lord Yelu to complain."

"If you can't sue me, then just pay the money."

After hearing this, Qin Ying bowed and said, "Yes, boss. I will do it immediately."

Seeing this scene, Tang Ziyue said, "Sir, why don't we restrain ourselves a little?"

Nan Batian was stunned and looked at Tang Ziyue and said, "Constrain? Conservate for what? What is there to restrain? This matter has already been exposed. Can it be worse than it is now? Don't worry, it's okay. Notify them and do as I say. Tell those merchants that within these fifteen days, if they don't pay the money, don't even think about shipping a grain of sand out of Mianshui County!"

After hearing this, Qin Ying clasped his fists and retreated. When he got outside, Qin Ying looked behind him with an extremely deep look in his eyes, and continued to move forward without stopping.

Tang Ziyue saw Qin Ying leave, looked at Nan Batian and said: "Boss, Lord Yelu has already warned us today. If we continue to do as we please, I'm afraid Lord Yelu will be dissatisfied with us!"

After hearing this, Nan Batian looked at Tang Ziyue and couldn't help but feel that his military advisor was so naive.
The reason why Yelu didn't turn against him now was that he hoped that he would find the weapons. As long as they found the weapons, they could still maintain the superficial peace. Of course, if they couldn't find the weapons, then I'm sorry, he would become Yelu's abandoned pawn.

So he is now fighting for his life, so except for the weapons, he doesn't need to have the slightest expectation for anything.

As for him continuing to make money from the canal transportation, he would just make money. Yelu would turn a blind eye to it. He would not argue with himself about this little bit of profit at this time.

Moreover, the ditch owner took away the biggest profit. He made 60,000 taels, and he took 40,000 taels...

Nan Batian calmed down and said to Tang Ziyue, "Ziyue, it's ok. The matter has been basically resolved. We don't have anything else to do. In this case, you can go down and rest first. As for the other matters, I will take care of them."

"But the gang leader!"

Tang Ziyue looked at Nan Batian and said, Nan Batian smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead."

Seeing that Nan Batian was determined to drive him away, Tang Ziyue had no choice but to bow and leave.

Watching Tang Ziyue leave, Nan Batian clapped his hands, and soon a middle-aged man with ordinary looks and wearing black clothes came out from the inner hall. He was the leader of the death squad trained by Nan Batian.

The man saluted Nan Batian and said, "Boss!"

Nan Batian looked at him and asked, "How is the Beishan Iron Mine going?"

The man said, "Boss, we have already started building it according to your instructions, but it will take some time."

Nan Batian said: "Well, there are at least ten days left. Can it be completed within ten days?"

The man said, "If we follow the number the gang leader said, it will be a bit difficult. It will take a lot of effort to make these arrows to meet military standards."

Nan Batian said: "Who said we have to meet military standards and lower the standards?"

The man heard this and said, "If the workmanship is rough, ten days should be enough."

Nan Batian said, "Okay, I'll give you another ten days. The workmanship doesn't need to be too elaborate. The Zoroastrians are a bunch of rebels. No one will believe them if they make things too elaborately. Also, you don't have to be so strict about the quantity. 80% is enough."

"If it's the gang leader, then he can definitely complete the task."

Nan Batian asked: "Where are the assassins?"

The man said, "Don't worry, Boss. The assassins are ready and are willing to die for you."

Nan Batian said: "Well, they are all great, but it's a pity that they have to be the rebels of Zoroastrianism this time."

The man said, "Their mission is to die for the leader. It's not a pity."

Nan Batian said: "Okay, I'll leave the matter over at Beishan to you. Also send some people over to help me move some of the treasures in my secret room. If there are any more problems, I can leave."

"Boss, you want to escape?"

Nan Batian said: "Nonsense, what do you mean by escape? What I did was called transfer. Okay, go ahead and do it. Be careful to be secretive."

"Yes."

The man bowed, stood up, looked at Nan Batian and said, "Boss, do you have any other instructions?"

After hearing this, Nan Batian hesitated for a moment and said, "Husband, is there any news about the lady?"

After hearing this, the man was silent for a long time and said, "There is no news at the moment."

Nan Batian sighed and said, "Keep sending people to look for me. You must help me find my wife."

"Yes."

The man withdrew. Nan Batian looked up at the sky and said, "Wan'er, where are you?"

……

In a small alley in the south of Mianshui City, Chen Jie looked at Bai Wenjing nervously. At this time, Bai Wenjing had a calm expression and put her hand on the pulse of the woman in front of her.

After a long time, he let go of his hand and stood up.

"How is it, Master?"

Chen Jie looked at Bai Wenjing. Bai Wenjing was silent for a moment and said, "The fetus is breathing steadily and is very healthy."

"Whoo~"

Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Huang Wan'er, who was sitting on the chair, also stood up to thank Bai Wenjing. When this woman was not crazy, she was also very well-educated and sensible.

Bai Wenjing stretched out her hand to stop him, saying, "You are pregnant, so forget about these customs. Just take good care of the baby."

After hearing this, Huang Wan'er said, "Thank you, Master Bai."

Bai Wenjing took the medicine box and wrote a prescription for a stable pregnancy and replenishing Qi, saying, "Get some medicine and replenish your body as needed."

Chen Jie immediately said, "Yes, I'll arrange for someone to get the medicine right away."

Bai Wenjing said: "Okay, just say whatever you want to say, I'll leave first."

Chen Jie said: "Master, I will take you there."

As they spoke, the two turned and walked towards the west room. They opened the door of the west room and found a secret passage inside. This was the safe house set up by Chen Jie.

Under normal circumstances, the gate outside the yard is not open.

Everyone coming and going leaves from the west room.

The house that Chen Jie bought has a direct access to another street from the basement of the west wing. In this way, people passing by will only see that they are coming out of a wine shop on another street.

But I didn't know that the underground passage of the wine shop could lead to this courtyard.

Chen Jie sent Bai Wenjing to the tunnel. Bai Wenjing looked at Chen Jie and said, "The baby in her belly was washed away by the toxins of saffron. It is very important to protect the fetus at this time. I didn't say it just now. It would be best to check it every seven days, or take it back to the mansion directly to take care of it."

After hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Bai Wenjing and said, "Master, I want to, too, but she refuses to go back home, so I have to trouble you to make a few more trips."

Bai Wenjing sighed and said, "That's good. Yunjin is pregnant too. If we bring her back home, although Yunjin can't say anything, she's in a bad mood, which can easily lead to an unstable pregnancy. Sigh..."

Bai Wenjing sighed again and looked at Chen Jie and said, "You are committing a sin!"

Chen Jie was scolded by his master, and he could only smile and say, "Master is right."

Bai Wenjing said, "Don't tell her what I said. Ask her maid to regularly prepare the pregnancy-maintaining medicine I prescribed. Pay attention to rest and don't let your emotions fluctuate too much. There won't be any big problems. I'll come back to check on the situation in seven days."

Chen Jie immediately bowed and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Master."

Bai Wenjing didn't say anything, but turned and left, went down the tunnel, and walked out of the wine cellar on another street. He was picked up by the younger brothers of the White Tiger Hall and took two jars of wine with him.

He went out, got in the carriage and drove away.

The few fishermen outside who were watching looked at each other and left, muttering in their hearts, this Doctor Bai has a good alcohol tolerance. He comes here every seven or eight days to buy two jars of wine...

Send Bai Wenjing away.

Chen Jie returned to the yard. Huang Wan'er sat on a rattan chair, touching her belly and asked, "Chen Lang, is our baby okay?"

Chen Jie was stunned, and smiled at Huang Wan'er, "What are you thinking about? It's okay."

Huang Wan'er said, "Don't lie to me. Master Bai's eyes just told me. Is there any hidden danger in my child because I ate the saffron?"

Chen Jie squatted beside Huang Wan'er, touched her belly and said, "Haha, don't think too much. My master said it's okay. As long as we take pregnancy-preserving medicine regularly, our baby will be born safely."

"But Wan'er, can you come back with me? If you're here, there will always be things I can't take care of. I'm afraid something might happen."

Chen Jie tried to persuade Huang Wan'er again, but Huang Wan'er shook her head and said, "I heard that Miss Su is also pregnant?"

Chen Jie said: "Yeah, you two can be companions together?"

Huang Wan'er shook her head and said, "No, I won't go and make things worse. I'm fine here. Besides, you've been fighting Nan Batian to the death recently, and I don't want to distract you because of me."

Chen Jie said: "It's okay, I can handle it."

Huang Wan'er's mood has become much more stable since she became pregnant, and she finally acts like a normal woman.

Huang Wan'er looked at Chen Jie, reached into her arms, and took out a jade ring.

He handed it to Chen Jie and said, "This is our Huang family's heirloom. When I married Nan Batian, my heartless father gave it to me in order to curry favor with Nan Batian. I have been carrying it with me. It is said that it can keep people safe. I will give it to you, Chen Lang. You must pay attention to your own safety when fighting Nan Batian. I hope you can accompany me to give birth to our child."

Chen Jie looked at the beautiful jade ring with blood stains on it that Huang Wan'er handed over. It was obviously very valuable and definitely a one-of-a-kind piece.

Chen Jie had an impression of this jade ring. It had always been hanging on Huang Wan'er's neck. During those crazy days, Chen Jie had seen this jade ring swinging up and down on that white jade neck countless times, and he was deeply impressed.

"Give it to me!"

Chen Jie looked at Huang Wan'er.

Huang Wan'er nodded and said, "Yes, I'll give it to you. It's like I'm by your side."

Chen Jie nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I understand."

Chen Jie accepted the jade ring, then looked at Huang Wan'er and said, "Wait for me. I will kill Nan Batian soon. When the time comes, I will send a sedan chair to take you back to the palace."

Huang Wan'er smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Chen Jie talked to Huang Wan'er again and stayed with her for a while. He said that one must take good care of a pregnant woman's emotions.

The two of them just chatted and were very intimate with each other, but neither of them did anything out of line. After all, children are important.

It was almost evening when Chen Jie left.

When he got outside, he came out of the wine cellar of the wine shop, flew onto the roof, avoided the crowd, found a secluded place to come down, and walked home.

Walking alone on the street, ordinary people in Mianshui did not recognize Chen Jiusi. After all, he was dressed very simply today. Besides, people like him were not easily seen by ordinary people.

A man like this was walking on the street and saw someone selling candied haws. Chen Jie bought three strings and brought them back to give to Ruirui and the others.

Chen Jie bought some candied haws and walked along the street. After walking about half a street, he suddenly heard a loud voice from a girl: "Boss, please bring up two rooms. Bring up all the good wine and food!"

After hearing the voice, Chen Jie didn't care at first, but suddenly he thought of something and couldn't help but stop!
Then he turned and looked towards the door of the inn.

Then a handsome man with fair skin and good looks, dressed like a rich young man, leading a white horse, said to the waiter of the inn.

There were three people standing behind him, they looked almost identical, they must be triplets.

They are dressed differently. One of them is holding a long sword and should be a swordsman. The other one is a little fat, but has bulging temples and a slightly red face, so he should be a master of internal skills.

There is another one with big hands and feet and a very long arm span. It seems that he has practiced external martial arts.

The three men standing behind the handsome man with fair skin and sharp eyes looked like elite soldiers and did not come from ordinary places.

Very alert, secretly protecting this rich young man.

Seeing this, Chen Jie stopped, touched his face, felt that there was no problem, and walked towards the inn.

Because he recognized who this handsome guy with fair skin and good looks was!
I still remember that I met her once in a cellar in Xiantao Village. Although a year has passed, Chen Jie can still recognize her.

That’s right, the Princess of Ruyang, Zhao Ya, Mulan, who was kidnapped by Ni Wenjun, was named: Yaya Timur!
Has she been rescued? I wonder how Brother Ni Wenjun is doing.

As Chen Jie was thinking this, he looked down and saw a tooth mark on his hand at the base of his thumb. Although it was very faint, he frowned slightly and turned around to ask his master if there was any medicine to remove the scar, even though he had worn a mask when he went in.

However, this kind of scar can still easily reveal one's identity.

Thinking about this, Chen Jie followed Zhao Ya and his party into the inn.

In ancient inns, meals were sold on the first floor, and accommodation was provided on the second floor. You have seen the layout of Tongfu Inn, it is basically the same.

"This guest..."

The waiter was about to greet Chen Jie, but he was stunned when he saw Chen Jie, because Baihutang had shares in this inn.

The current asset structure of the White Tiger Hall is very healthy, apart from maintaining the violent organization and the disciples under it.

Chen Jie also set aside part of the money he earned from salt as an investment fund.

That’s right, Baihutang has made a lot of investments in the past year. Chen Jie has invested in many high-quality projects in the city, and these bosses have either been willing or reluctant to accept Chen Jie’s investment.

Because Chen Jie controls the White Tiger Hall with nearly a thousand people in one hand, and a large amount of cash flow in the other hand.

If Chen Jie likes a business, he will ask someone to negotiate with the company to see if the company is willing to cede some shares. If so, Chen Jie will invest and share the dividends.

If you are unwilling, Chen Jie will use the money he has to open an identical store next to your store, selling exactly the same things but cheaper than yours.

How much cash flow can these small bosses have? Unfortunately, Chen Jie has plenty of money, and he keeps losing money for longer than the small bosses. Soon, the small bosses can’t continue and go bankrupt.

At this time, Chen Jie could spend some money to poach him and make him a professional manager to make money for himself.

In this way, profits are compounded and models are applied to each other. After a year, Baihutang has shares in many industries in Mianshui County.

Chen Jie copied this trick based on the experience of some large companies in his previous life. Although it is shameless, it works.

Moreover, Chen Jie did not kill all these businessmen and bosses. It can be said that he has done his best.

Chen Jie owns a 30% stake in this store.

The waiter saw Chen Jie at a glance: "Master Chen~"

"Shh~ arrange a private seat for me near those four people."

"Okay, I understand."

The waiter was very clever and quickly arranged a private seat for Chen Jie. At this time, Chen Jie said, "A pot of wine and three side dishes will do."

The waiter nodded. Then Chen Jie sat down, poured himself a drink, and pretended to be a guest.

He didn't even look at the four people, his eyes were just fixed on the food on the table.

At this time, the four people came to the table, followed by the man holding the sword and said: "Princess, we have arrived in Mianshui County, why don't you let the local Darughachi arrange a place for us, but must we stay on our own?"

"Look at this place. It's not worthy of your status!"

Said the man with the sword.

At this time, the red-faced man said, "Yes, Princess, what kind of place is this? This time you are here as an inspector, so you should notify Darughachi to come and see you!"

After hearing this, Zhao Yayi frowned and said, "Ada, Aer, shut up. You still know that we are inspectors. Along the way, many Darughachis have deliberately fooled us. This Mianshui County is our last stop. If we want to find out something, we must go on a private visit in disguise!"

"Look, Ah San doesn't say anything!"

Zhao Ya pointed at Ah San and praised him. Ah San said, "Princess, this place is too bad. Look, there are scratches on the table, and this stool, you..."

"I just praised you, shut up, I didn't say anything, you three grown men are fussy."

After hearing this, the three people fell silent and stopped talking.

Zhao Ya, at this time, stretched out her hand and said, "Waiter, are the wine and food ready?"

"Hey, here we come."

The waiter responded and came over immediately, while Chen at the other table picked up a peanut and put it into his mouth, his eyes slightly fixed.

"Inspector, Zhao Ya?"

Chen Jie took a sip of wine. He really didn’t expect that it would be her.

In fact, what Chen Jie should have thought of was that the Inspector General was the result of a compromise among all parties in the court. After all, the Inspector General held great power. Although he was a low-ranking official, he could indeed threaten the local areas. And as a big shot from the south, Prince Ruyang would never allow that group of people in the north to send people to the south to make decisions.

Therefore, he could only use his own people to replace the people from the north. However, if he wanted to suppress the forces of all parties, this person's status could not be low, so he could only choose his own daughter. With this status, who would not give some face?

No one could say anything even if a few county-level Darughachis were captured.

This is Zhao Ya’s positioning.

And because of what happened last time, Prince Ruyang also assigned three experts to Zhao Ya.

These are Ada, Er and San. These three are all outstanding disciples of the Vajra Sect outside the domain. Each of them has already broken through the Hua Jin realm and entered the Qi and Blood Dan realm.

With the company of these three people and the protection of a large force, our Yaya Timur will be much safer. Even if he meets Ni Wenjun, he will be able to escape under their protection.

The waiter brought the food quickly, which was all delicious side dishes, and a pot of warm wine.

Zhao Ya reached out to eat the food.

But he was stopped by Ah Da: "Wait, Princess, Ah Er."

Upon hearing this, A'er picked up the chopsticks and took a sip. A'er had practiced internal skills and had a high resistance to poison, so the task of going out to test the poison was left to A'er.

Zhao Ya said: "Is it that serious? No one knows me. How can they poison me?"

Ah Er said, "Princess, please, it is better to be safe than sorry. The prince told us before we left."

"Okay, I got it, don't say any more. Also, don't call me Princess outside. Call me Young Master."

Several people looked at each other and said, "Yes, Princess."

Zhao Ya was irritated by these three stupid people. She didn't say anything and just drank and ate by herself.

Chen Jie took a sip of wine at this time, thinking secretly in his heart, now that the inspector has arrived, it seems that Nan Batian will have to hurry up and close the net in the south.

At this time, Chen Jie had his back to Zhao Ya and the others, drinking wine and eating peanuts.

Zhao Ya raised his glass, wanting to clink glasses with his three subordinates, but found that they did not dare to clink glasses with him. The hierarchy was really firmly imprinted here. It was boring, very boring.

Zhao Ya thought about it, turned her head to look to the side, and suddenly saw Chen Jiusi with his back to them.

Zhao Ya was stunned: "Huh?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Da's sword came out half an inch from its sheath. Chen Jie suddenly felt like a thorn in his back and froze in place.

His hand was on the wine glass, ready to attack at any time.

"What's wrong, Lord... Lord?"

Ah Da frowned and asked, while Ah Er and Ah San beside him also stared with their eyes wide open, looking like they were about to explode at any moment.

Zhao Ya glanced at Ah Da and said, "Why are you drawing your sword? It's nothing, I just thought this person's back looked familiar!"

Ah Da turned his head and looked at Chen Jie, Ah Er narrowed his eyes, and Ah San said: "Do you want to catch him and torture him?"

Zhao Ya heard this and said, "Are you all murderous devils? He's just a passerby, why are you doing this to him?"

"Ah?" The three of them were stunned.

Zhao Ya said: "All of you sit still and don't move."

The three of them frowned and stared, looking alert.

At this time, Zhao Ya came to Chen Jie holding a wine glass and a wine pot.

Chen Jie felt his scalp tingling instantly. How could this trouble come to him so easily? After taking a deep breath, Chen Jie looked normal.

Zhao Ya came up to Chen Jie at this time and said with a smile on her face: "Excuse me!"

Chen Jie deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Ah, what's the matter?"

Zhao Ya looked down at Chen Jie at this time. This face looked unfamiliar, but this voice?

Zhao Ya felt that it was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it.

Also, these eyes look familiar, don’t they?
Zhao Ya frowned slightly, and cold sweat broke out on Chen Jie's forehead. Could it be that he really saw something?
Thinking about this, Chen Jie tried to calm himself down and asked, "What can I do for you, sir?"

"oh oh."

Zhao Ya came back to her senses and looked at Chen Jie and said, "Oh, brother, I am here for the first time in Mianshui County today. I don't know what good food and fun things there are in Mianshui County, so I came to ask you for advice."

"Oh, about that. The Mian River is close to the river, so the fish and shrimp in the water are naturally delicious. As for fun places, there is a temple fair in Dongcheng on the 15th of every month. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

"Oh, thank you, brother."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Chen Jie said this with a smile, his expression was quite calm.

I pray in my heart, please leave quickly.

Zhao Ya became interested at this time. She didn't leave, but sat down on the long bench to the right of Chen Jie and said, "Brother, you look familiar. Have we met before?"

Zhao Ya squinted her eyes and looked at Chen Jie.

Chen Jie clenched his fist under his sleeve, but said with a smile on his face: "Haha, I have an ordinary appearance, and there are many people who look like me. Did you recognize the wrong person, sir?"

Zhao Ya said, "Really? I don't know why I always feel like you look like an old friend of mine."

"Old friend?"

Chen Jie deliberately said, "Sir, you must have made a mistake. Are you here to visit relatives in Mianshui, or to do business?"

Chen Jie deliberately tried to change the subject.

But Zhao Ya didn't fall for it. She just stared at Chen Jie and asked, "Brother, are you from Mianshui County?"

This question stumped Chen Jie. Zhao Ya was an inspector and would meet Yelu sooner or later. As the leader of a local gang, there was a high possibility that he would meet with him. If he lied now and was found out in the future, he would probably be suspected.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie said, "Oh, I guess so. I've been in the city for more than a year."

"More than a year."

Zhao Ya heard this and asked, "Where was he from before?"

Chen Jie's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, but he remained calm and said, "Xiantao Town is a small town. Do you know where it is? The scenery is pretty good. If you have time, you can go there to play."

"Xiantao Town?"

Zhao Ya murmured, in fact, she didn't know where she was abducted last time.

Because she was carried in a sack the entire time, she only knew that she was abducted to a town in the urban and rural areas of Mianshui County. She couldn't remember whether it was Xiantao Town, Yangjia Town, or some other town.

However, the documents reported by Huangzhou Prefecture recorded that Ni Manzi passed through seven towns along the way, including Xiantao Town.

Zhao Ya thought about it and looked at Chen Jie and said, "Is there a person in your town who..."

After thinking about it, Zhao Ya fell silent, because the bastard was wearing a hood and she had no way to describe his appearance. She just smiled bitterly. She kept thinking back to those days this year.

I was displaced and was kidnapped by Ni Wenjun for a whole month.

During this month she suffered from the bullying of Ni Manzi and was put in a sack every day. Okay, it’s okay for you, Ni Manzi, to bully me, but you are a great master and you need your two masters, Xuanbing and Erlao, to rescue you.

But there was a little thief bullying him.

It was so abominable. In that stinking cellar, Zhao Ya would never forget the humiliation she experienced. He actually made her pee in her pants right in front of him.

It’s so abominable. Just wait, if I catch you, you will see how I torture you. I will make you suffer all kinds of humiliation!
Zhao Ya was thinking about it and she squeezed the wine glass in her hand until it creaked. Chen Jie's eyelids twitched when he saw this. He hated himself so much. If he was caught, he would be doomed.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie swallowed his saliva and said, "Master, do you have anything else to do? If not, I will leave after I finish eating."

"Oh, sorry, I was distracted. It's fate that we met. Let's have a drink and see you in the rivers and lakes!"

Zhao Ya raised the wine glass in her hand as she spoke. Chen Jie originally wanted to raise the glass with his right hand, but suddenly he remembered the scar on the base of his right hand, so he simply changed to his left hand and clinked the glass with hers.

Zhao Ya never expected that she would encounter the cellar thief on her first day in Mianshui.

So he didn't treat Chen Jie as a little thief, and therefore didn't care that Chen Jie held the wine glass with his left hand, and thought that Chen Jie was left-handed.

So he clinked glasses with Chen Jie, and they both drank it in one gulp.

Chen Jie stood up and pretended to pay the bill, but actually pulled the waiter aside and said, "Keep an eye on these four people. I'll send someone over to question them."

The waiter said, "Don't worry, Master Chen."

As he spoke here, Chen Jie said goodbye to the waiter and left the inn. At the same time, his heart sank. The inspector from the Mulan people had arrived, and the matter became more complicated.

I don’t know how Xiaohu’s investigation is going.

Thinking this way, Chen Jie left in a hurry. Zhao Ya looked at Chen Jie's back and frowned slightly: "Why does he look so much like that little thief?"

"Sir, what are you looking at?"

Ah San came over and asked, Ah Da Dao: "Stupid, look at that boy, sir, do you want me to catch that boy and interrogate him for you?"

Zhao Ya frowned and said, "Can you be more normal? You are imperial envoys of the court, not gangsters. You must abide by the law and not act recklessly. If everyone sees someone else as suspicious and you arrest them, what will happen to the world? Okay, I'm going to rest first, you guys eat slowly."

Zhao Ya said this and went straight upstairs.

Ah San was confused and asked, "Ah Da, what does the princess mean?"

"Stupid, the princess is saying that we should abide by the laws of the court and not act recklessly."

"Hmm? Boss, what's the matter with the court law?"

Ah Er looked at Ah Da and asked?

Ah Da picked his teeth and said, "Who knows what the court's laws are? The prince told us that no matter who it is, as long as they threaten the princess, they can be killed without mercy. Laws?"

"What's the matter?"

Ah San said, "Hiccup~ The South is all about princes, and law? What the prince says is the law, and what the princess says is the law!"

Ah Er said, "Alright, forget about that, let's drink. The wine in this wine shop is pretty good."

Ah Da frowned and said, "Drink less, don't delay things."

Ah Er said: "Don't worry, I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

At this time, Zhao Ya returned to her room, opened the window, and saw Chen Jie walking calmly on the street. He did not seem flustered, as if he was just an ordinary diner who took a walk after a meal.

"Well, maybe I was wrong."

Zhao Ya muttered, looking towards the distant city: "Don't worry, little thief, I will definitely find you!"

Zhao Ya clenched her fists, her eyes filled with anger. She would repay the humiliation she suffered back then double.

In fact, Zhao Ya was still a good person. When she was rescued, King Ruyang was furious and directly ordered that all the seven towns in Mianshui City where Ni Manzi had lived be razed to the ground to vent his anger for his daughter.

As a result, Zhao Ya directly rejected Prince Ruyang's idea.

He also talked to King Ruyang about theories of governing the country, such as why the law should not be abused, why the Han people should be treated equally, and why one should not massacre a city or destroy a country just because of a momentary anger!
and many more……

Prince Ruyang was happy that his daughter was sensible and reasonable. She was worthy of being my daughter and had political acumen.

It just so happened that the higher-ups were selecting an inspector, so Prince Ruyang thought about letting his daughter do it and relax at the same time. It just so happened that his third son was serving as Darughachi in Huangzhou Prefecture, so he let her go to her third brother's place to relax.

That's how the current scene happened.

Chen Jie walked steadily through three streets and was quite far away from the inn. When he was sure that the other party could not see him, he ran away.

Cold sweat was pouring down his forehead.

As expected of someone from above, Zhao Ya’s real strength is still unknown, but his three subordinates are very powerful.

Especially the third brother, who has a powerful aura. Chen Jie is definitely not his opponent. It even seems that Nan Batian is not his opponent. It seems that this person should be at the Qixue Baodan realm.

The reason why Chen Jie felt that the third brother was very powerful.

This is because the strength of the eldest and second oldest should be far greater than that of the third oldest, and Chen Jie’s strength is simply unable to sense their strength.

It was just like he didn't know Ni Wenjun's strength at the beginning. That was caused by the difference in strength.

Chen Jie felt that these two must be at the Qixue Baodan realm, or even at a higher realm. How terrible, really terrible!

We must find a way to get rid of these people as soon as possible.

In addition, Nan Batian must also close the line quickly, otherwise something unexpected will happen.

Thinking of this, Chen Jie returned to the mansion. Su Yunjin had already prepared the meal. Although Chen Jie had eaten a little at the inn, he was still very hungry, so he ate his fill.

Su Yunjin looked at Chen Jie and said, "Husband, how is Sister Huang?"

Chen Jie said: "Ah, it's okay."

Su Yunjin said, "I'm bored at home. If it doesn't work, I'll bring Sister Huang here to take care of the baby together. This way, my husband can take care of her more easily without running back and forth."

Chen Jie said, “Well, my lady, Huang, the lady doesn’t want to come over because she’s afraid of disturbing you.”

Su Yunjin heard this and said, "What's the problem? I'll go see my sister when I have time."

Chen Jie said: "Well, let's wait a few days. I might be very busy recently."

Su Yunjin suddenly became nervous and looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Is it with Nan Batian?"

Chen Jie patted her hands and said, "Well, don't worry, I can handle it."

Su Yunjin said worriedly: "Husband, you must be careful. Sister Huang and I can't live without you."

After hearing this, Chen Jie patted Su Yunjin's back and said, "Come on, I'll take you back to your room to rest. You need to rest more in your current condition."

Su Yunjin remained silent and comforted her to sleep.

Chen Jie went out, and Xiao Hu also came back. He looked at Chen Jie and said, "Brother Jiu Si, we found it. Nan Batian is really forging weapons in the Beisan Iron Mine Area. He is hiding very deep. If I hadn't brought two old miners with me, we wouldn't have been able to find it."

Chen Jie heard this and asked, "How many did they build?"

Xiao Hu said, "Not much, but we've been working day and night, so it will probably be a lot in two days."

Chen Jie narrowed his eyes and said, "Haha, Nan Batian really dares to do this. All right, you ask someone to keep an eye on that place, and I'll go find Daruhachi tomorrow!"

"it is good."

Xiaohu responded.
