Chapter 173 Men in Black
Chapter 173 Men in Black
Yu Tingwan remained silent. How could she not know? But she had a weapon, so she was not afraid. But Shen Chenli was different.
He was worried about the people of Dasheng, while she just wanted to protect herself and her family.
"I understand, but I won't let him live a happy life."
After all, he not only hurt Shen Chenli's mother, but also imprisoned and insulted her mother!
"Well, I will know, and I won't let him go."
After listening to what Jiang Wanyun said, how could he not feel any hatred in his heart?
All the sufferings my mother had suffered throughout her life were caused by this uncle. Even if he had to bear the crime of parricide, he would make him apologize to my mother in the underworld.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, the capital became more and more lively, and people from various countries arrived in the capital one after another.
Because of King Dongping, those officials who were not assigned to the tribute affairs felt fortunate. They had a premonition that many things would go wrong during this tribute!
However, those who were specifically asked to come had to go and greet him. The ones with the worst expressions were Prince Hong and Prince Rui.
Originally they thought this was a very glorious thing, but now, King Dongping fell on the road covered with wounds for no reason, and after waking up he knew nothing!
This caused trouble for those who were responsible for this matter.
The emperor wanted to know where the King of Dongping went and what he did?
The Prince of Dongping asked them to give an explanation. What happened during the time their prince was missing in Dasheng?
In the days since they arrived in the capital, Prince Hong and Prince Rui have barely slept for several days and nights!
They never expected that they would take over such a difficult problem.
Not only that, I heard that something happened in the suburbs of Beijing, where a mountain suddenly collapsed, and people who went there found out that it was hollow inside!
That would have been fine, but there were actually a lot of corpses inside. The people who went in took a look around and realized that it was actually a gold mine, and there were a lot of people mining inside.
But the imperial court knew nothing!
The current situation is... the gold mine has disappeared and the court is completely unaware of it. The emperor is furious and orders a thorough investigation!
This had nothing to do with them.
But they just happened to think of the time when the gold mine accident happened, when King Dongping suddenly appeared. It was said that he was covered in dust and dirt, and he didn't look like he came out of a bandit's lair, but rather like he crawled out of a mine!
Besides, the King of Dongping is a rare master in the world. How could a mere group of bandits possibly trap him?
Unfortunately, he insisted that he was kidnapped by bandits. What can you do?
So this is also a headache for them.
Fortunately, the other countries did not cause any trouble, except for the brainless third prince of Xiyan Kingdom, who caused a lot of jokes.
"You said that my third brother fell in love with a woman on the street and insisted that she go back to Xiyan with him?"
At Jiang's residence, Yun Chu, who was enjoying a piece of pancake in his hand, swallowed the food in his mouth and looked at the person who was sitting next to him and telling him about the latest situation in the capital.
Yun Liu picked up a piece of cake and nodded vigorously.
"Yeah, your third brother has brought shame to Xiyan."
Yun Chu shrugged indifferently, even with a hint of wanting to watch the fun.
"It seems that someone can't tolerate him anymore and wants him to die."
Bringing in a brainless person at a time like this would just be asking for his death, wouldn't it?
Yun Chu had eaten half of the pancake when he suddenly thought of Yu Tingwan, who hadn't visited him for a long time.
"What are you doing lately, sister?"
"……Well!"
Yun Liu quickly took a cup of tea and poured it into his mouth, while pounding his chest hard with his hands. The force was so great that his eyeballs popped out!
Seeing him like this, Yun Chu felt disgusted and reached out to slap him on the back!
"If you do this, don't say you came from my side next time you go out. It's embarrassing!"
Yun Liu was choked and rolled his eyes, speechless. If it weren’t for him, would he have been choked?
Why did the young master dislike me?
"Sir, I heard that the Princess of Chen went to stay in a villa outside Beijing for a few days to relax!"
"Stay for a while in a villa outside Beijing?"
Yun Chu was dissatisfied. Why didn't he come and see him now?
"Go and tell her that I recently heard about what my brother did and I am dissatisfied. I want to go and argue with him, but you can't stop me. Please ask her to come and comfort me!"
Yun Liu was even more speechless.
How did the young master become like this? Is this still their moody young master?
Okay, Yun Liu took the order and went to ask for help, looking at the footprints on his legs.
It's still cloudy and uncertain, it depends on the person!
On the other side, in the backyard of the Shangshu Mansion, Yu Xiuzhuo was practicing sword in the yard. Feeling the fluctuations in the air, he turned around and went back into the house.
"Did you find out what happened in the forest?"
A masked man in black walked out from a corner of the house and said respectfully:
"My lord, because of the collapse of the forest, almost all traces have disappeared. However, I found that the collapsed cave is very deep, as if the things inside suddenly disappeared.
I also found a piece of cloth inside, and it was obvious that it was not something that the miners could wear.”
Then the man in black presented the cloth he had found.
Yu Xiuzhuo reached out and took it, and the moment he touched it he determined what kind of fabric it was.
"This is a piece of cloth specially supplied to the royal families of various countries. Even ordinary ministers cannot use it."
The man in black glanced at the blue cloth in his hand and felt confused.
"Could it be that the royal family is mining for gold in there?"
Who is brave enough to do such a thing near the capital?
I’m afraid he has been beaten by the current leader!
Yu Xiuzhuo rubbed the cloth with one hand and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
"He's a member of the royal family, but I can't say which royal family he is!"
"One more thing."
Yu Xiuzhuo threw the cloth on the table and waited for him to speak.
The man in black frowned and said solemnly, "I found a secret room in the Shangshu Mansion's study. Moreover, this secret room is connected to a secret passage. I walked through it and found that it leads to a wooden house in the bamboo forest outside the city, but I haven't seen any suspicious people nearby."
Yu Xiuzhuo stopped drinking tea and lowered his eyes. The room was silent for a moment and the man in black stopped talking.
After a long time, Yu Xiuzhuo chuckled and put down the teacup in his hand.
"It seems that my father has done a lot of things in private!"
"Then what are you going to do?"
He glanced over with a calm gaze, and there was clearly no emotion in his eyes, but even so, it made the man in black break out in a cold sweat.
The man in black immediately realized that he had spoken too much and quickly knelt down to apologize.
"Crow, I remember I once said that I don't like people around me to talk too much."
Yu Xiuzhuo stood up, walked to the man in black, raised his hand and placed it on his shoulder, with a smile in his eyes.
"Crow, have you remembered this lesson?"
