Chapter 113 Doubt

Chen Gui thought for a while and guessed: "Maybe Zhang Tong didn't show up, so Sun Yu didn't recognize him."

"Chen Gui, ask Zhao Dahai to deliver a letter to Sun Yu. I have something to explain to him." Jiang Hexi thought for a while and said.

"Okay!" Chen Gui naturally would not refuse and hurriedly agreed.

Jiang Hexi nodded slightly to the three of them and strolled into the house.

After a cup of tea, Jiang Hexi came over with a letter and handed the sealed letter to Chen Gui.

"Don't worry, girl, I will let Dahai deliver the letter safely." Chen Gui clasped his fists towards Jiang Hexi and said respectfully.

Jiang Hexi smiled slightly and nodded.

Chen Gui nodded to the others, then strode away.

"Girl, how about I stay here to take care of you from now on? You, Ah Yun, and Ah Xuan live here, and I feel a little unsafe." When Li Lanhua thought of the gangsters who had committed many evil deeds, she felt very worried about Jiang Hexi's safety for some reason.

, I always feel a little uneasy in my heart.

Jiang Hexi was a little stunned, then slowly shook her head and comforted: "It's okay, Sister Hehua and the others still live next door, nothing will happen to me."

"But Sister Hehua will move away soon. After the new house is built, your neighbors will only be Mrs. Fang's family. I'm really worried." Li Lanhua was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead and she pulled Jiang Hexi's sleeves.

He spoke eagerly.

"You go back and discuss this with Granny Li and the others first. If they agree, you can move here and I will hire you for a while." When Jiang Hexi heard this, she thought it made sense and couldn't help but agree.

Hearing this, Li Lanhua was overjoyed and said with a smile: "That's great! My grandparents will definitely agree. Then I will pack my things and come over tomorrow."

Seeing Li Lanhua so happy, Chen Shuanzi couldn't help but feel envious. However, he was a man and it was impossible for him to live in Jiang Hexi's house, otherwise people in the village would definitely gossip.

Thinking of this, Chen Shuanzi couldn't help but feel a little depressed and lowered his head in silence.

"Okay, it's getting late. You guys should go home and rest. Shuanzi, I'll ask you to send the orchid home." Jiang Hexi couldn't see his depression, so she just pretended not to see it. After all, it was really impossible to let him

stay at home.

"Don't worry, girl, I will take good care of Sister Lanhua!" Chen Shuanzi's eyes lit up and he patted his chest to assure her.

Jiang Hexi smiled slightly and waved to the two of them, indicating that they could leave.

It wasn't until the two of them left that Jiang Hexi returned to the house, walked gently to the brothers' room, and looked at the two little guys who had slept together for a long time with red cheeks. The corners of her mouth could not help but raise, and she looked at them gently.

Two people.

After staring at the two sleeping brothers, Jiang Hexi helped them straighten the thin quilt they had kicked away, and then walked back to her room lightly.

Looking at the letter lying quietly in front of her, Jiang Hexi couldn't help but feel a little lost.

It was important to know that the original owner's father and mother were killed in Xuzhou. She still vaguely remembered that the original owner's father traveled all the way from Yuzhou to Liuzhou in order to go to Liuzhou to meet a friend. Unexpectedly, he caught a severe cold in Liuzhou.

After the original owner's mother heard the news, she was distraught. Because she was really worried about her husband's safety, she hired a carriage and went to Liuzhou alone to take care of her husband.

Unexpectedly, this would be a farewell to heaven and earth, and the original owner would never see his parents alive again.

The two then rushed back to Yuzhou from Liuzhou, but unfortunately encountered bandits when they passed through the border of Xuzhou, and lost their lives in vain.

What the original owner saw again was two cold corpses.

Even though the Jiang family reported that the gangsters had injured people, the government took no action, and finally received news that the suppression of the gangsters had failed.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hexi couldn't help but clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, suddenly picked up the envelope on the table, and stared at the letter in her hand without blinking.

"Sun Yu said that Huo Yunyao and Zhao Xu were frightened. Zhao Fei has negotiated with the Governor of Xuzhou and will send people to suppress the bandits soon. Presumably the bandits must not have survived." Jiang Hexi murmured to himself.

But are these gangsters the same group of villains who killed Jiang's father and Jiang's mother? If they are the same group of people, why did the gangsters kill Zhao Xu in the original book?

You must know that Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were killed by the original heroine's mother, Liang...

The more Jiang Hexi thought about it, the more headache she got. She couldn't help but press her smooth forehead and fell into deep thought.

Zhao Fei, on the other end, was also very confused about the gangster's purpose.

"Sir Zhao, the Governor of Xuzhou sent someone to tell you that this matter will be explained to you, please don't worry." An accompanying official came in and interrupted Zhao Fei who was deep in thought.

Zhao Fei came back to his senses, took a closer look at the follower who lowered his eyebrows, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "I know, please step back first."

"Yes." The accompanying officer felt a chill on his back for some reason, and secretly glanced at Zhao Fei with a little fear. When he saw his expressionless face, he was so frightened that he immediately lowered his head and bowed respectfully.

As soon as the accompanying officials left, the boy beside him said: "Sir, do you want to tell the prime minister about this matter in advance so that your majesty can send people to suppress the bandits? I see that the governor of Xuzhou does not seem to be so concerned about this matter.

Thinking of delaying the case."

Hearing this, a hint of coolness flashed across Zhao Fei's usually gentle brows, and he said indifferently: "I think Zhou Daoxing is a relative of the emperor and has been sitting here for a long time, and relying on the reputation of King Xin's father-in-law, even my Zhao family doesn't take him seriously.

"

"Young Master, there is no need to be angry. With the Prime Minister and Duke Huo here, how dare the Governor of Xuzhou not to implement this case? Young Master, please do not send someone back to the capital to inform you of the news."

"You must know that Mr. Huo is well-known as a daughter slave. If he knew that Miss Huo was disturbed by gangsters, he would probably break into the palace and face His Majesty directly." The boy tried.

Zhao Fei pondered for a moment and then said: "Of course I have to tell my grandfather about this. I will write a letter later and you can send someone to send it to the capital as quickly as possible."

"Yes." The boy responded respectfully.

After Zhao Fei wrote the letter and handed it to the boy, he fell into deep thought. He really couldn't understand why Zhou Daoxing, the dignified governor of Xuzhou, was afraid of a mere gangster.

You must know that this gangster is said to have been a subordinate of Gui Jianchou. King Xin has always been at odds with King Xiang. Zhang Zhi, the prime minister of Yanzhou Prefecture, is from the Zhang family. Is it possible that he is also involved in the corruption case in Yanzhou...

In the antique study room, under the dim bookshelf, a middle-aged man in a blue brocade robe sat quietly on a chair, not knowing what he was thinking.

"How's it going? What did Zhao Fei say?" As soon as he saw the entourage who had returned to his life, the elegant middle-aged man with a white and beardless face who was originally in a daze stood up hurriedly and asked urgently.

The attendant glanced at him in surprise, wondering how he, who was always gentle and calm, could be so rude, but he kept his identity in mind and bowed his head respectfully.

"Sir, Master Zhao didn't say anything, he just made it clear what he meant."

After hearing this, Zhou Daoxing was stunned for a moment, sat down blankly, stared at the document in front of him and fell silent.

The entourage gritted his teeth and said doubtfully: "Sir, at most we just did something bad, and we didn't accept Zhang Tong's bribe. Why should we be so worried? Even if His Majesty orders the bandits to be suppressed, at most he will punish us for dereliction of duty."

"Besides, as long as His Highness the King is here, nothing will happen to you, and Your Majesty will not punish you for this matter."

Hearing these words, Zhou Daoxing gave a bitter smile, thinking that if he failed to suppress the bandits in such a simple way, of course he would not be punished badly, but he was not only worried about this matter!

Zhou Daoxing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he thought of the virtuous and beautiful woman he once was.

He really couldn't understand. It was clear that the matter was over and she had gotten the glory and wealth she wanted, but why did she still hold on to others, causing her to become homeless and live in a foreign country?

He wanted to destroy the lives of both of them.

As he was thinking about it, Zhou Daoxing couldn't help but think of another gentle and kind-hearted girl, the girl with a bright and beautiful heart. He couldn't help but hate himself for killing the girl who once respected him for his own personal love.

If he hadn't helped the Liang family collude with Zhang Tong to cover up the fact that he murdered Jiang's father and Jiang's mother, Zhang Tong wouldn't be so arrogant and have been running rampant in the mountains and forests of Xuzhou.

He took care of Liang's feelings and had to swallow his anger, even giving up his responsibilities!

He couldn't help but think to himself, Zhou Daoxing, Zhou Daoxing, you have really failed to live up to your ambition!

"Sir, are you okay?" The entourage looked at Zhou Daoxing who was struggling in confusion, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

Zhou Daoxing came back to his senses and pretended to be calm: "I'm fine, please step back."

After the entourage left, Zhou Daoxing fell into self-blame again and remained motionless for a long time, as if he had turned into a stone statue.

But no matter how worried Zhou Daoxing was, the imperial edict still arrived.

It was Huo Tingrong who came to suppress the bandits!

"The imperial edict has arrived! Xuzhou Governor Zhou Daoxing accepted the edict!" Huo Tingrong's energetic voice sounded.

Zhou Daoxing hurriedly put down his work, trotted over, and then knelt down respectfully.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Xuzhou Governor Zhou Daoxing failed to suppress the bandits, which was dereliction of duty. I am grateful that you have always been diligent in government affairs, and I have given you the opportunity to make up for your mistakes. I have sent the general Huo Tingrong to assist the country and send troops to suppress the bandits. I order you to assist

Huo Aiqing wiped out the bandits and made up for his mistakes, so here you go!" Huo Tingrong shouted expressionlessly.

"Your Majesty, Zhou Daoxing, accepts the imperial edict. Long live my emperor." Zhou Daoxing respectfully accepted the bright yellow imperial edict, but his throat became even more congested.

After Zhou Daoxing finished the formalities of welcoming the imperial edict, he hurried over to entertain Huo Tingrong.

"Master Zhou, now that I'm here, the gangsters in Xuzhou will no longer be able to do whatever they want, and Master Zhou can feel at ease." Huo Tingrong looked at Zhou Daoxing with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhou Daoxing smiled dryly, coughed slightly and said, "General Huo, you don't have to be polite. This is my duty, and I will definitely assist General Huo in suppressing the bandits."
