After hearing Cui Yu's inquiry, Zhao Junchen pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Those thieves are quite alert and cautious in their actions. When my people appeared, they found that nothing could be done, so they abandoned Miss Cui and dispersed.
They escaped. There were many thieves, but I sent few people, and they had to protect Miss Cui, so they couldn't catch up. I could only watch the thieves escape. Because I couldn't catch the thieves, I didn't know.
What is the origin and purpose of these thieves?"
In order to cover up Chen Zhirong, Zhao Junchen naturally lied this time and did not even disclose the incident at Xichang. Otherwise, the imperial court's professional intelligence and arrest agency failed to catch a few thieves. It would be difficult to win the trust of the people if he told it.
people.
Cui Yu asked again: "So, did Mr. Zhao inform Shuntian Mansion and Liumen about the attack on my little girl?"
Zhao Junchen nodded and said: "Of course I dare not hide such a big thing. After rescuing Miss Cui, I immediately notified Shuntian Mansion and Liumen and asked them to help investigate. According to Shuntian
In the return of Tianfu and Liumen, the thieves had a clear goal from the beginning. They came just to kidnap Miss Cui, and their methods were professional and skillful. They were definitely not kind. However, the origin and purpose of these thieves were still not found out.
"
This time, Zhao Junchen did not lie.
In fact, after Zhao Junchen rescued Cui Qianxue, although he helped Chen Zhirong clear up all the clues and evidence, in order to make the acting more realistic, he actually informed Shuntian Mansion. And the information found by Shuntian Mansion and Liumen
.This is exactly what Zhao Junchen told Cui Yu.
On the other side, Cui Yu looked solemn after hearing Zhao Junchen's answer.
Just now, he had only been worried about Cui Qianxue's safety. He had not thought about it deeply, but now that he had calmed down a little, he suddenly realized that the next thing seemed a bit difficult to handle.
…………
Originally, Cui Yu and Cui Qianxue had always lived in Cui Mian's mansion, but now that they have been expelled from the family by Cui Mian, it seems inappropriate to live in Cui Mian's mansion anymore.
If it were normal, this matter would be easy to handle. After all, Cui Yu is a court official. Although he is not wealthy due to his clean and honest style, it is more than enough to rent a small courtyard in the capital. In this way, Cui Yu can find
Before moving to a new residence, I can still live with Cui Qianxue for a while.
However, now there is still a group of gangsters who want to kidnap Cui Qianxue, and their origins and intentions are unknown. If Cui Yu follows the original plan and takes Cui Qianxue to live in a small rented courtyard at will, there will be no defense and no
Knowing whether those gangsters would reappear, Cui Yu did not dare to guarantee Cui Qianxue's safety.
"Or, I can take Qianxue to live in a friend's house?"
After thinking for a moment, Cui Yu shook his head again and rejected such an idea.
Because of his personality, Cui Yu does not have a wide range of friends. Most of the friends he can talk to are family friends of the Cui family. However, because Cui Yu and his daughter were kicked out of the Cui family, Cui Qianxue's reputation is now also
After being destroyed, Cui Yu's so-called "friends" may not be willing to take in Cui Yu and Cui Qianxue.
After careful consideration, Cui Yu realized that he had so few choices. Let alone protecting the safety of his daughter, he didn't even know how to find a place to live. He couldn't help but feel anxious.
At this moment, under the leadership of Zhao Junchen, Cui Yu came to the depths of Zhao Mansion, only to see a small group of Xichang fans patrolling not far away - since Zhao Junchen rebuilt the Xichang Yamen, Zhao Mansion has
There are Xichang fans stationed all year round - but this scene suddenly made Cui Yu's heart move.
"Zhao Junchen treats my father and daughter very kindly. If I ask him for a request, I think he will not refuse me and Qianxue to stay here for a while. What's more, there are so many people in the Zhao family.
Everyone, there are people from the West Factory stationed on guard, so safety can be guaranteed. If Qianxue and I stay here temporarily, it would be a good choice..."
However, as soon as this idea appeared in Cui Yu's mind, Cui Yu subconsciously shook his head and rejected it.
Nowadays, there are countless rumors between Zhao Junchen and Cui Qianxue. If Cui Qianxue is allowed to live in Zhao Junchen's house again, I don't know how much attention it will attract. By then, Cui Qianxue and Zhao Junchen will be even more difficult to separate.
Disconnected.
Although Cui Yu's impression of Zhao Junchen has greatly changed due to their previous interactions, Cui Yu is still unwilling to let Cui Qianxue have any deep connection with Zhao Junchen. After all, no matter how friendly Zhao Junchen treats him, he cannot change Zhao Junchen.
The fact that Junchen is a corrupt official.
However, although this idea was rejected by Cui Yu, Cui Yu was always hesitant because he had no better choice.
…………
On the other side, seeing Cui Yu suddenly silenced, with a gloomy look on his face, Zhao Junchen thought Cui Yu was still worried about the robbers, so he comforted him and said: "After all, the capital is under the emperor's feet, and the law is strictly guarded. Those thieves
Now that their whereabouts have been revealed, they should have fled far away. In my opinion, they probably don't have the guts to kidnap Miss Cui again, so Master Cui doesn't need to worry too much."
Zhao Junchen's comfort did not have much effect. Cui Yu was still worried and did not answer the call. He was just thinking about the next situation.
However, before Cui Yu could think about it clearly, Zhao Junchen had already led him to the guest room where Cui Qianxue lived, where Chu Jiayi was waiting quietly outside the guest room door.
"Jiayi, I asked you to take care of Miss Cui, why did you stay outside the house? How is Miss Cui now?" Zhao Junchen asked.
Chu Jiayi lowered her head and replied: "Sir, Miss Cui was frightened today and was tired. After I talked to her for a while, she had already fallen asleep. Before Miss Cui fell asleep, I asked her
The doctor in the mansion diagnosed Miss Cui again, and the doctor said that Miss Cui is fine, but she needs to rest more and not be too stimulated."
After hearing Chu Jiayi's answer, Zhao Junchen nodded thoughtfully, then turned to Cui Yu and suggested: "Cui Shi said that the daughter has just suffered a disaster, and the doctor also said that she can no longer be stimulated.
In my opinion, it is better not to tell her about the fact that you and your daughter were kicked out of the house by Senior Cui, otherwise she will be sad and blame herself in her heart, which will hinder her rest and recovery."
On the other side, Cui Yu also felt that Zhao Junchen's suggestion was reasonable. He also thought that if he took Cui Qianxue to live elsewhere, Cui Qianxue would definitely know that his father and daughter had been kicked out of the house by Cui Mian.
It would be irritating, so Cui Yu gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
Therefore, Cui Yu did not go to visit Cui Qianxue immediately, but suddenly saluted Zhao Junchen and asked: "Master Zhao, now my daughter and I have been kicked out of the house, and there are thieves with unknown origins who are eyeing my daughter. The official took my daughter with me.
Time has nowhere to go, but I wonder if I can stay in your residence for the time being?"
In Cui Yu's heart, Cui Qianxue's safety was ultimately the most important, so after repeatedly considering the pros and cons, he decided to stay in Zhao Junchen's residence temporarily.
However, because he was worried about leaving Cui Qianxue in the Zhao Mansion and was afraid that Zhao Junchen would have any bad intentions towards his daughter, Cui Yu planned to shamelessly live with Cui Qianxue in the Zhao Mansion, so that he could take care of Cui Qianxue nearby.
As for the rest, Cui Yu couldn't care about it.
In a way, Zhao Junchen is a very talkative person. Although Zhao Junchen was surprised when he heard Cui Yu's request, he also understood Cui Yu's various considerations and didn't care about the rumors between the government and the public, so he nodded.
He agreed: "Cui Shidao and your daughter want to live in our house. I naturally welcome them. Don't worry, Shitao. I have enough rooms here. You two can stay as long as you want."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day, Cui Mian announced to the outside world that Cui Yu and Cui Qianxue were kicked out of the Cui family, which naturally caused an uproar. However, the reputations of the Cui family and Cui Mian were finally saved.
Next, the news came out that Cui Yu and Cui Qianxue were living in Zhao Junchen's mansion, which aroused a lot of discussion among the people. Let's not mention how many bad words there were.
And all of this, only Cui Qianxue was kept in the dark. She was still recuperating physically and mentally under the care of Cui Yu. She didn't know why she and her father lived in the Zhao Mansion, or because she was afraid of being punished by her grandfather Cui Mian.
Because of this, Cui Qianxue didn't ask any more questions.
As for Zhao Junchen, he naturally doesn't care about the rumors between the government and the public. What's more, a very important event is about to begin. Compared with this matter, the rumors between Zhao Junchen and Cui Qianxue are just insignificant.
Just a small thing.
And this big event is naturally the next palace examination.
This palace examination is related to the future talent reserve of "Zhao Party". Zhao Junchen has put a lot of thought and effort into this. Now that it is finally time to reap the rewards, Zhao Junchen naturally attaches great importance to it.
