Based on the clues obtained, uninformed people thought that the person living in seclusion in the mountains and forests was Cui Weizhen himself, so they all went out one after another. Captain Qian served as the outpost to find out the news. They would definitely be panicked when they learned that this young man was not Master Cui.
He was afraid of being held accountable by the prefect when he returned.
He was panicked for a moment, and the words popped out of his head: "Lie! Why do you prove that you are not Cui Weizhen? Mr. Ye, could you just lie because we have never met Mr. Cui?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone around him looked at him like a fool, even his servants were no exception.
The folks have said that the young master living here has lost his memory. How can he prove his identity? Besides, the Ye family has spent so much money looking for him, how can they not admit it when they actually meet him?
It’s not like brothers are fighting for property and wishing each other would die. Master Cui is the uncle of the Ye family! If Master Cui dies, the wife of the Ye family will be left a widow. No matter how sinister Mr. Ye is, he won’t think about something happening to his brother-in-law, right?
After Qian Captou calmed down, he felt that he had said something stupid. He was embarrassed and said with a stiff mouth: "What are you looking at? Am I wrong in what I said? We have never met Mr. Cui. If Mr. Ye deliberately concealed it,
There is nothing we can do.”
The officials didn't say anything, either because of the authority of their superiors or because they expressed their deep agreement.
Ye Zhenzhen felt it was funny. The plan of luring the enemy in was already successful. There was no need to give the frontman, Qian Captou, any more face. She changed her previous attitude and said coldly: "Qian Captou's words are wrong. This
If the young master is really my brother-in-law, why should I hide it? It is only right to take him back as soon as possible."
Captain Qian didn't expect her face to change, and her face became even more ugly. He snorted coldly: "Who knows what you are thinking."
There was really no need to argue with such a stupid and stupid person. When Ye Zhenzhen saw that this young man really did not intend to reveal Cui Weizhen's whereabouts, plus he had money to catch the leader and others, he had no choice but to look frustrated and said to him.
Looking at Guan Yan and others, he said: "Well, since we can't find anyone, let's go back and continue waiting for news."
Guan Yan quickly nodded in agreement and continued: "Master Ye, it's getting late now and you are not feeling well. I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand the journey down the mountain. I'll let someone make a wooden frame to carry you back."
"
Guan Yan was very attentive and considerate. The stretcher had been prepared a long time ago. Before Ye Zhenzhen could refuse, someone carried it to her. Ye Zhenzhen was really weak, so she hesitated for a moment before sitting on it.
When Mr. Qian saw her leaving like this, he immediately became anxious: "Hey, what's going on with you guys? You came out to find someone and gave up so easily. Why don't you ask more questions?"
Ye Zhenzhen looked back at him with a sarcastic expression on her lips: "Since Mr. Qian is so interested in you, you might as well ask him in person."
Capt. Qian actually asked: "Boy, you have no name and no surname. I advise you to cooperate well and tell me whatever information you know, otherwise I will take you back and put you in jail!"
"Okay, I said, don't arrest me."
The young man actually compromised without any moral integrity, and said everything in detail like he was pouring beans out of his bamboo tube: "I actually don't live here, but a scholar who passed by here. Not long ago, a man covered in blood was given to me.
I was given a sum of money to live here, saying that I wanted to confuse some enemies. I happened to be short of money, so I accepted his money and stayed here."
Ye Zhenzhen: "..."
This person is also discriminating! Just now she didn't say anything no matter how I asked, but now it's better, Capt. Qian explained everything as soon as he opened his mouth, which made her look very shameless.
Captain Qian obviously also thought about it, feeling that his power had scared the other party, and he looked at Ye Zhenzhen very provocatively, with a proud smile on his lips, as if he had won the battle.
In order to anger Ye Zhenzhen, he continued to ask questions with a particularly high voice: "Tell me, where is the person who bribed you now?"
The young man was obviously very hesitant, looking at this and that, with a troubled expression on his face: "I use money to help others to eliminate disasters. I have received money from others, how can I reveal his whereabouts? No! No!"
Qian Captou: "..."
You sold so readily just now, and now you have become so disciplined?
Captain Qian looked at him with a ruthless look on his face and threatened: "Are you going to tell me? If you don't tell me, I will take you back to jail!"'
He repeated his old tricks, trying to scare people and get the news again, and the effect was as he expected. The young man seemed to be very afraid of going to jail. He struggled for a while, and finally made a very humble request: "It's okay to say it, but I
I can only tell Mr. Cha that you are the only one."
This move played into Qian's trap, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. He glanced at the young man approvingly and said, "Okay."
As soon as the young man collected the money, Ye Zhenzhen jumped out to find her presence: "Why do you only tell him and not me? The person you are looking for is my brother-in-law! I am the family member, what does it mean for you to tell outsiders?
What's going on?"
Qian Captou's face suddenly darkened.
However, the development of the facts was beyond his expectation. The young man raised his chin and looked at Ye Zhenzhen with great vigilance and contempt: "To borrow what Mr. Cha just said, has anyone proven it? Who knows if you are that person?"
Mr. Cui's relative? What if you are a bad person? I don't believe Mr. Cha, how can I believe you? I don't think you care very much."
Ye Zhenzhen: "..."
Although I knew it was an act, the other person looked very awkward.
When Qian Captou saw Ye Zhenzhen shrinking, his face turned from gloomy to clear, he said very proudly: "That's right! Young man, you have very good knowledge. This world is very dangerous, good and bad people all wear a layer of skin.
How do you know the details of the other party? We are no different. We are officials of the prefect's yamen, and we work hard to protect the peace of the place. As a common people, you naturally have to trust our government officials."
Haha, it’s only thanks to his thick skin that he can say such shameless words. On weekdays, these officials are the most exploitative of the people, and they dare to call themselves protectors. How can they have such a big face?
Ye Zhenzhen wanted to spit in his face, but due to her identity, she could only hold back, and had to look jealous, watching the young man talk into Qian Baotou's ear. Such superb acting skills,
She can't wait to award herself an Oscar!
When Capt. Qian got the news, he looked as arrogant as if a villain had succeeded. He waved his arms and shouted to his men: "Let's go! We only find Mr. Cui. The prefect will give you a lot of rewards!"
The government officials applauded one after another and geared up, eager to find the person now. They quickly shouted slogans and followed Qian Captou away.
Ye Zhenzhen's character couldn't be broken, so she immediately ordered Guan Yan and others to follow.
