Chapter 477 Come to Her
Food city, top-floor study.
Zhilan came up from downstairs, bringing freshly baked egg tarts and milk tea, and said, "Miss, that Jiang guy looks rich, but in the end he only bought a hundred fried chickens. Even with such a strong attitude, he still wants to act so high and mighty in front of you, Miss."
"I asked you to send someone to tell Jiang Qingnan and Zhou Jinyuan, is there any news?"
"not yet."
Su Jin walked in and said, "The servant who went to the government office just now has returned and said they went to the Jingzhao government office. Mr. Meng dragged the Jingzhao prefectural official, who was already off duty, out of the backyard to try a case. The servant was beaten with thirty sticks and confessed everything because he couldn't bear it anymore."
"What's going on?" Zhilan asked.
"It's said someone bribed him with a hundred taels of silver to take Young Master Meng to the Food City, then put a needle in a hamburger meal and have Young Master Meng eat it. It would be best if Young Master Meng was injured, the more serious the better. If not, then they would encourage Young Master Meng to cause a big scene, ideally destroying the Food City."
"Miss, this is coming for us!"
"This is directed at me," Qin Huiyin said. "General Meng risked his life for the people on the border. If something happened to his only son in the capital, the higher-ups would definitely send someone to die to appease his anger."
As the owner of the food city, who could be more suitable than her?
Therefore, this person's target was her.
"Su Jin, go to the Jingzhao government office and rescue that follower." Qin Huiyin said, "I want to find out who wants to harm me."
If the follower dies, there will be no evidence and it will be difficult to find out.
Su Jin went out again.
Zhilan heard someone calling her outside, so she went out and spoke to that person for a few words. When she came back, she said to Qin Huiyin, "Jiang Qingnan and Zhou Jinyuan were each beaten with fifty sticks by the new commander. They are still unconscious and unable to come."
"Have you called a doctor?" Qin Huiyin frowned.
"They are under strict guard. Even if the other brothers wanted to get a doctor for them, they couldn't get him in."
This is an attempt to kill someone.
The guy named Jiang took her brother's position and wanted to kill her brother's confidant.
"Song One, Song Two..."
Song Yi and Song Er walked in from outside.
"You should be able to contact my brother's people, right? Tell them that if they want to save Jiang Qingnan and Zhou Jinyuan, they should stir up some trouble in East City to keep the newly appointed commander busy. Then they can find a loophole here and rescue them."
Song Yi and Song Er took the order and left.
Qin Huiyin counted the time on her fingers and said, "According to the original schedule, my brother will not be back for another five days."
These five days are enough to make that guy named Jiang suffer.
East City used to be peaceful, but that was because the people were completely convinced by Song Ruize. He didn't bully them, and he even solved their problems. That playboy surnamed Jiang didn't seem like someone who could get along with the people. And considering his self-proclaimed romanticism but actually vulgar ways, it was inevitable that he wouldn't cause harm. Any of these things could become a trigger, and he'd have to bear the consequences.
Be patient for a few more days and wait for his brother to come back before discussing how to deal with this trouble.
"Miss, we're too late. The attendant has died in prison," Su Jin said after returning. "The coroner performed an autopsy and said he died from swallowing a needle."
"Does Master Meng know?" Qin Huiyin frowned.
"He knows," Su Jin said. "The government officials informed him."
Qin Huiyin pressed her eyebrows and said, "I know. I want to be quiet for a while."
Su Jin looked at her worriedly.
Qin Huiyin felt a little tired and needed to calm down and empty her mind.
It was not until the food city closed that Qin Huiyin returned home with her two maids.
As soon as she got on the carriage, she saw Tang Yichen appear on horseback.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Tang Yichen said, "I just happened to be busy until now, and thought you might be here, so I came to see if you were here. I didn't expect to run into you."
"Sir, our young lady encountered a lot of things today, you have to accompany her well." Su Jin said from the side.
Tang Yichen frowned, got off the horse and got into the carriage.
Su Jin and Zhi Lan got out of the carriage and sat outside.
"What's going on? What happened today?"
"Su Jin is such a bad girl, she can't hide things." Qin Huiyin complained, "It's just a small matter, I've already taken care of it."
"You can tell Big Brother that even if I can't help, I can still talk to you."
"The East City Military Headquarters has a new commander. Brother Song is not in the capital, so he was not even notified of the new appointment. The General Military Headquarters is really too much. Also, I don't know which evil spirit I provoked, but it's trying to kill me in various ways..."
Qin Huiyin did not hide anything and told Tang Yichen everything that happened in the Food City and the story of that idiot Jiang Yunzhou.
"The East City Military Headquarters has actually changed its commander. I wasn't aware of this. This kind of transfer doesn't require the knowledge of higher-ups, only the approval of the General Military Headquarters. As for the Earl of Anping's son, I've never met him before and know nothing about him. I heard you said he just returned to the capital, so I'll send someone to inquire about him tomorrow."
"Brother, just focus on your own business and don't worry about me. He won't dare to act recklessly under the emperor's feet. At most, he will pester me like a dog-skin plaster. As long as I ignore him and go out with Song Yi, Song Er and the others, nothing will happen."
"No, this is a serious matter and must not be taken lightly."
The eldest son of the Zhu family is gone, and now the son of the Earl of Anping has come.
The previous one was easy to deal with, but this one is much more troublesome than that one.
The brother and sister returned to the house. It was too late today, so they went back to their rooms to rest.
"Chen Yu, investigate the prince of the Earl of Anping's mansion in detail."
"Yes."
"What's wrong with him?" Li Taohua just came out of Tang Luwu's yard. When she heard what Tang Yichen said to Chen Yu, her heart trembled and she asked.
"Who?" Tang Yichen didn't understand.
Li Taohua laughed dryly: "Nothing. I was thinking about something else."
"Why did Aunt Li come out of Lvwu's yard so late at night? What happened to her?"
"That girl accidentally fell and twisted her ankle. I went to see if the swelling had gone down," Li Taohua said unhappily. "But she's fine. After all, she's been doing work since she was a child, so her health is much better than those delicate young ladies. It's nothing serious. She just has to stay in bed for the next few days. A broken bone takes a hundred days to heal, and hers wasn't serious, so she'll have to stay in bed for four or five days at the very least."
"Thank you for your hard work, Aunt Li."
"Why should I be so tired? There's nothing else for me to do except stay in this house. Oh, and Princess Yuanying's birthday is coming up soon. As her fiancé, you have to give her a gift, otherwise she'll make a scene again."
Li Taohua looked at him sympathetically.
"I know what you're thinking. But now that you still have this relationship, we have to give her the face she deserves."
A look of annoyance flashed in Tang Yichen's eyes.
