Chapter 2120 - Officials Arrest People

"You're running a shop without a charcoal fire?" Wen Jin's hand that had just let go was about to grab Zhang Yinjiang's clothes in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yinjiang hid for a moment, and then said: "If you are in a hurry, I will go to the blacksmith shop opposite to get some."

"It's so late, will anyone give it to you?"

"I have a good friendship with him. We drank together during dinner and borrowed some charcoal. It's not a big deal!" Zhang Yinjiang said, patting his chest.

"Okay, then hurry up!"

"Okay, as long as there is a charcoal fire, I will get it for you tonight." After saying that, Zhang Yinjiang turned around and went into the back. After a while, Zhang's wife came out with him.

"You drink some tea with Mr. Zhao, and I'll go to the blacksmith shop opposite to get some charcoal fire!" Zhang Yinjiang said as he put on his clothes.

Zhang's wife nodded obediently, and then went back to bring a pot of tea. Seeing that the matter was resolved, Wen Jin relaxed a little, sat on a chair and started drinking tea with Zhang's wife.

Soon, Zhang Yinjiang came out. When he went out, he did not forget to close the door.

The blacksmith's shop is right opposite his shop, only about twenty steps away.

When he arrived at the door, Zhang Yinjiang looked back first and found that the door of his shop was still closed, so he knocked safely.

Soon, the door opened, and a man appeared in front of the door holding a candle.

"You're here?"

This person is none other than Ye Luo.

After Zhang Yinjiang saw Ye Luo, he recognized him and quickly entered the house.

"Sir, people are here!"

"Oh? You're here in the middle of the night?"

"right!"

"Where?"

"It's right in my shop!"

"Okay, very good."

Ye Luo put down the candle lantern excitedly, then clapped his hands, and soon, more than a dozen people walked out.

"Hurry up and change your clothes and start immediately."

"yes!"

After a while, these dozen people came out again.

Ye Luo lit another candle, and the room suddenly became brighter. Zhang Yinjiang took a closer look and found that except for Ye Luo, everyone else in the room was wearing yamen clothes.

"Go to the other side, arrest the person and take him back directly." Ye Luo ordered.

"yes!"

"Go for it!"

When Zhang Yinjiang heard this, he was about to turn around and follow, but Ye Luo stopped him.

"Just don't go and stay away."

"Thank you, sir." Zhang Yinjiang actually didn't want to go because he was afraid of being embarrassed.

Although Zhang's wife had given birth to several children, she was very comfortable because she had been living under pressure from Zhang Yinjiang. Apart from not being rich, there was nothing wrong with her.

Therefore, even at this age, Zhang's wife still has charm.

It was late at night, and a man and a woman were alone in the same room. Wen Jin was still a romantic, and after saying a few words, he started talking nonsense.

"Is this small amount of monthly income from the silversmith enough for you?"

"Oh, what's enough is enough, that is, just to eat and drink, and to work for someone who has no ability. It's unlucky." Zhang's wife said angrily.

"A decent-looking person like you, madam, should not suffer such injustice." Wen Jin said with a hint of meaning.

Zhang's wife looked at Wen Jin and said with a smile: "You are already old and have several children. What else do you think about? I don't think about it anymore. Let's live like this."

"That's not true. People can't accept their fate in this life." Wen Jin said matter-of-factly.

Just at this time, there was a knock on the door.

"He's back, I'll open the door."

Zhang's wife quickly went over to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, a gust of cold wind blew in.

"ah!"

Later, Zhang's wife suddenly discovered that the person standing outside was not her husband at all, but some people she did not know at all.

"Get out of the way!"

Wen Jin heard the noise and was about to get up, but was immediately surrounded by people.

He took a closer look and saw that they were actually some people from the Yamen. Judging from their clothes, they seemed to be from the Criminal Department.

Seeing this, he immediately stopped panicking.

"What are you doing?" Wen Jin asked carelessly.

"Your surname is Zhao?"

The sudden questioning made Wen Jin dumbfounded on the spot.

After holding it in for a long time, he asked: "What does my last name have to do with you?"

"We were ordered to arrest the suspect, who is named Zhao, aren't you!"

"Suspect? What suspect?"

"Why are you talking so much nonsense about the theft of imperial tax money!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Jin was immediately frightened and said quickly: "Then you have found the wrong person. My surname is not Zhao. My surname is Wen. My name is Wen Jin. Marquis Ankang is my father, and His Royal Highness is mine."

Cousin, Imperial Concubine Shuxian is my aunt."

He mentioned all three of his patrons in one breath, which proved that he was frightened.

Zhang's wife next to her was confused after hearing this. Could it be that the Marquis of Ankang, the prince, and the imperial concubine were all relatives of this person?

At this moment, these government officials suddenly walked up to Wen Jin, took his arm and walked out.

"What are you doing!" Wen Jin shouted.

"You say your surname is Zhao for a while, and Wen for a while, which one is the real one? Come back with us!"

"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Wen Jin suddenly thought of something.

"You are not officials from the Ministry of Justice at all!" he said loudly.

"Don't you know who we are?" a yamen servant scolded in a stern voice.

"Haha, don't try to fool me. Officials from the Ministry of Justice will never handle cases in the middle of the night. Let me tell you the truth, I am Wen Jin. If you know my identity, let me go. Otherwise, do you know that the crime of pretending to be an official is

What!"

"take away!"

Originally, Wen Jin thought these words could scare them, but they didn't buy it at all.

Just when Wen Jin was about to continue shouting, a government official casually struck him on the neck with a knife, and Wen Jin soon fainted.

"Remember, you are not allowed to tell anyone about this matter. We are official servants of the imperial court. This case is very important. If the secret is leaked, the nine tribes will be destroyed."

Zhang's wife, who was already frightened out of her wits, just nodded after hearing this. ""

Soon, everyone left.

After a while, Zhang Yinjiang came back.

Zhang's wife saw Zhang Yinjiang coming back and was about to open her mouth to say something, but Zhang Yinjiang spoke first.

"Did you see that? Did you see what that person does? That's the suspect that the Yamen is targeting. How dare you do his business! Fortunately, I'm smart, otherwise, our whole family would have finished playing."

Zhang's wife didn't dare to reply at all, because she was an honest and ordinary woman, how could she understand what was going on.

"Close the door and prepare to pack up. We will leave the city early tomorrow morning," Zhang Yinjiang said.

"Leaving the city? Where to go?" Zhang's wife asked.
