Chapter 148 Betray! This envoy is going to Liuhe County!
Su Cheng came out of the government office with a traffic order in his hand.
This was what Wang Wenxuan went to ask for from Magistrate Yang, and Magistrate Yang would still give it to him. Su Cheng easily obtained the passage order.
With the token in hand, Su Cheng took the yamen, Shen Youwei, and Yang Lingxuan out of the city easily.
As soon as they left the city, Shen Youwei burst into laughter.
"Miss Yang, let me tell you, as long as my husband is here, nothing will be difficult for him."
His face was filled with pride and elation, which was visible to the naked eye.
However, Su Cheng in front felt a little blushed when he heard this.
This lady of my own... wouldn't praise herself so much.
Saying this, I feel a little embarrassed.
"Madam, let's rush back to Liuhe County first. There will be many things to deal with next."
In order to stop his wife from praising him, Su Cheng took the initiative to change the topic.
Yang Lingxuan, who was on the side, was a little embarrassed when she heard this: "Don't worry, Mr. Su, I went to Liuhe County this time just to see Chang Feng and see his injuries before returning to Jiangzhou City."
Yang Lingxuan knew very well that if she never came back, her father would keep looking for her.
If he is found in Liuhe County, it will affect Su Cheng and Shen Youwei.
This time she just went to say goodbye to Liu Changfeng and had no other thoughts.
Although she was grateful to Shen Youwei for saving her, she also knew that she could not escape the fate of marrying Zhao Chengwang.
She can't resist this!
"What, you want to return to Jiangzhou City?"
When Shen Youwei heard this, her face suddenly changed: "Then I didn't rescue you in vain, no, I don't agree with you coming back!"
"That bastard Zhao Chengwang is not a person worth trusting for life. You can't marry him."
When Shen Youwei mentioned Zhao Chengwang, she remembered the way he looked at her, and a look of disgust flashed in her eyes.
"This..." Yang Lingxuan smiled bitterly, but for a moment she didn't know how to explain it.
Su Cheng, on the other hand, chuckled: "Don't argue, Zhao Chengwang has been arrested by me and imprisoned. Whether he can come out and marry Miss Yang is another question."
As soon as these words came out, the two women were shocked.
"Ms. sir, did you really arrest that guy?" Shen Youwei reacted with excitement on her face.
Yang Lingxuan also stared at Su Cheng in disbelief, as if she didn't expect that he would really dare to arrest Zhao Chengwang.
You must know that he is the son of the chief minister. How can such a person be arrested just as he says?
Even if Zhao Chengwang wanted to kill Liu Changfeng, but now Liu Changfeng is not dead, Zhao Kangyu can get rid of this crime with some tricks.
"Mr. Su, will this cause trouble for you?" Yang Lingxuan looked worried. She felt that she had caused this incident, and she felt a little guilty.
Su Cheng chuckled lightly: "Miss Yang, don't worry, this happened in my Liuhe County, and five lives were lost, so I naturally have jurisdiction."
"Although Zhao Chengwang is Zhao Kangyu's son, he is so arrogant and domineering. As a court official, I cannot let him continue to act recklessly."
"Okay, let's rush back to Liuhe County first. Just go and meet Liu Changfeng. Don't think too much about other things."
After saying that, Su Cheng accelerated his horse and moved forward.
Shen Youwei also smiled and accelerated forward with Yang Lingxuan.
Yang Lingxuan had no choice but to go to Liuhe County to meet Liu Changfeng first.
The group of people rode forward quickly, but in Jiangzhou City, Wang Wenxuan came to Yang Yushi's mansion with the case file Su Cheng gave him.
In the Yang Mansion, Zhao Kangyu sat on the main seat, Yang Yushi stood below, and Wang Wenxuan stood in the middle of the hall.
"Master Wang is so anxious to come to see me, and even drags on Magistrate Yang. What's the important matter?"
Zhao Kangyu asked calmly while drinking tea.
Yang Yushi was also looking at Wang Wenxuan in surprise at this moment, with a look of confusion on his face.
You must know that he, the prefect, is Wang Wenxuan's immediate boss, but the other party actually brought Zhao Kangyu with him. Could it be that he cannot make the decision on what he wants to say this time?
Just when Yang Yushi was surprised, Wang Wenxuan smiled bitterly, coughed, and took out a case file from his sleeve.
"Sir Zhao, this is the case file brought by the Liuhe County Magistrate just now. It concerns your noble son. I dare not send it to the province easily, so I ask your Excellency to review it."
As soon as these words came out, Magistrate Yang's face changed drastically: "What, it's related to Mr. Zhao, what happened?"
"Ahem... Mr. Yang, Mr. Zhao ordered his guards to murder Liu Changfeng, the head of a thousand households, and the evidence is conclusive."
Wang Wenxuan said as he handed the case file to Zhao Kangyu.
Zhao Kangyu didn't see any strange expression on his face. In fact, he had received the news from Wu Yang last night and also knew that his son was arrested in Liuhe County.
But in order not to alert the enemy, Zhao Kangyu did not take the initiative to bring it up today. He wanted to see how the Liuhe County Magistrate would handle this matter.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the other party actually handed the case file to the government office, indicating that the other party wanted to close the case as soon as possible and put his son to death.
After taking the case file, Zhao Kangyu read it carefully from beginning to end, and the cold look on his face became more and more serious.
At the end of reading, Zhao Kangyu snorted coldly: "What a Liuhe County magistrate, he dares to arrest my son, and wants to report it to the Ministry of Punishment of the imperial court to sentence my son to death!"
"I'm just an only son. He wants my Zhao family to have no descendants!"
As soon as these words came out, Yang Yushi and Wang Wenxuan below were shocked.
Cutting off children and grandchildren is a life-or-death feud, and the conflict between the two parties cannot be resolved at all.
But Liuhe County is under the jurisdiction of Jiangzhou after all, and Yang Yushi doesn't want the two sides to quarrel, otherwise he will also be implicated.
"Master Zhao, there may be some misunderstanding about this matter. Why don't you ask me to go to Liuhe County in person and bring your son back!"
Yang Yushi immediately stood up and wanted to be a peacemaker. He didn't want the two sides to start a fight, which would make it difficult for him to be a man in the middle.
Wang Wenxuan on the side also quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, it is most appropriate for Mr. Yang to handle this matter. Perhaps the Liuhe County Magistrate will understand the misunderstanding. As long as the misunderstanding is resolved, Mr. Zhao will be able to return safely."
The son of a second-rank official was caught on their territory. Once Zhao Kangyu got angry, they would not be able to escape the blame.
The best way is to ask Su Cheng to release Zhao Chengwang immediately!
But when Zhao Kangyu heard this, he sneered: "No need, this case file is perfectly made and my son's crime has been confirmed. If I don't go there personally, I'm afraid it will be difficult to solve this matter."
"Just some time ago, several other county magistrates in Jiangzhou jointly signed a letter, saying that the Liuhe County Magistrate was very overbearing. He not only occupied their fields, but also robbed their county's population, causing a large loss of population in the other ten counties!"
"As the chief envoy, I have the right to handle this matter!"
