The vermilion door of the Tang family was opened, and Tang Chu heard the movement in the distance, and hurriedly asked Shuangxi to take a look.

After a while, Shuangxi returned, "Miss, there are quite a few people at the door, all wearing particularly fine armor!" ”

Shuangxi said with a sigh of relief, with the panic on his face caused by seeing so many people.

"Is it from the government?" Tang Chu wrote the last stroke on the white paper on the table and asked unhurriedly.

Shuangxi shook her head, she didn't know, just glanced at those people from a distance, but the momentum was much stronger than the officers and soldiers in Suizhou, and they shouldn't be from the government.

Tang Chu thought about it a little and knew that this was the arrival of people from the capital, and it was time to count the days.

"Double happiness, go out with Miss Ben to welcome guests!" Tang Chu said with a smile, his voice filled with excitement and joy.

Tang Chu knew that the whole thing was going to have a complete destination.

After a little tidying up, the master and servant left the boudoir and went straight to the gate.

"Lord Duan, this is the place where Tang Chu is detained, because the incident happened suddenly, and Tang Chu's guilt was not enough to be imprisoned in the government, so he was confined to his home, and officers and soldiers were sent around, and he was never released." Zhao County Order and Zhao Wancang stood beside Duan Hengzhi on the left and right, and Zhao County Order began to babble endlessly about what had happened in the past few days and the information of the case from beginning to end.

"Lord Zhao, does this Tang Chu really have the guts to kill Miaoyin Niang?" Duan Hengzhi asked.

It's not that he doesn't believe it, but this kind of thing is too unbelievable, the daughter of a merchant has so much courage to protect the other two sisters when she is kidnapped, this kind of person has never been in the capital, even the most heroic young lady, just riding a horse and shooting arrows can attract the praise of others, as for killing? Duan Hengzhi shook his head, it was absolutely impossible.

Entering the Tang Mansion, the decoration here is luxurious, and there are a lot of quiet scenes, Duan Hengzhi has also been to some merchants' homes before, all of them are luxurious and luxurious, and this is no exception, but the luxury has added a bit of elegance, which looks pleasing to the eye.

Bypassing the pavilions, Xiao Chi Youyou, Zhao Xian Ling nodded, "Don't hide it from Lord Duan, it was really Tang Chu's doing, when he just knew about it, the official was also shocked, this Tang Chu is only sixteen years old, and it is really impressive to have such courage." ”

Listening to the praise in Zhao County's mouth, Duan Hengzhi frowned, "Zhao County's order is familiar with the Tang family?" ”

Zhao Xian Ling chuckled in his heart, and then said solemnly, "I don't know each other, it's just that the little girl and Tang Chu are both nobles in Suizhou City, and they are always in one place!" ”

Duan Hengzhi nodded and fell into deep thought.

Zhao Xianling and Zhao Wancang glanced at each other, thinking in their hearts that they were worthy of being the Zheng envoy of the Supervision Department, the emperor's right-hand man, who was good at restoring the truth from the clues.

The porter sent the group to the front yard and retreated, and at this time Tang Chu was rushing over.

"Little girl Tang Chu of the Tang Clan, this is polite!" Tang Chu blessed his body and bowed to several adults, and the others knelt down accordingly.

Duan Hengzhi fixed his eyes and saw that he was really young, only sixteen or seventeen years old, young and beautiful, who would have thought that such a little girl would be the key person and witness in the whole case.

"Get up, this official is an official sent by the emperor to investigate this case, you can call me Lord Duan, from now on, you and everyone in the Tang Mansion must obey my transfer without any objections, understand?" Duan Hengzhi said expressionlessly.

"Tang Chu must abide by the arrangements of the imperial court!" Tang Chu lowered his head and replied softly.

She lowered her eyes, and from her line of sight, she could only see the different postures of the three adults, this Lord Duan followed the rules, and Zhao County Ling and the other adult were in the same official position.

Tang Chu got up, and the group went to the front hall to discuss matters.

That Lord Duan rarely asked questions in the future, he had always been Zhao Countyling's second brother, and Lord Zhao Wancang asked her over and over again about what happened that day.

"Since there are two other girls who were also on the scene that day, let's ask them together!" Duan Hengzhi commanded.

Everyone heard that he was talking about Xie Yaoyao and Zhao Zhenzhu, as well as the maids of each family.

After the incident, these people were also locked up in their homes, although the truth of the matter was clear, but the procedures of the imperial court had to be repeated.

Soon, Shuangxi was also questioned, and the civil officials on the side kept recording their conversation with a pen, this scene looked extremely serious, and the little girl Shuangxi couldn't help but swallow her saliva to relieve her nervousness.

Lord Zhao Wancang's questions were sharp and tricky, as if he wanted to behave well in front of this Shangguan, but Tang Chu had already been prepared, and no matter what he asked, Tang Chu had his own perfect answer.

Duan Hengzhi watched this scene quietly from the side, and his heart verified his previous thoughts even more. This Tang Chu is not simple.

After Tang Chu answered the question, he only felt that there was a burning gaze towards him, and he didn't need to turn his head to look at it to know that that person must be Duan Hengzhi.

smiled slightly, she knew that she was easy to be feared by others, but Taoguang had been obscure for so long, should she hide it like this for the rest of her life?

She Tang Chu is not afraid, nor is she afraid of other people's speculation, the whole thing has been under her manipulation without the slightest evidence against her, no matter how powerful this Duan Hengzhi from the capital, under the Son of Heaven, is, what can she do?

Zhao Xianling looked at Tang Chu and Duan Hengzhi from time to time, only to feel that there was a strange atmosphere between the two of them.

After half an hour, the civil official put away the notebook and recorded most of it, and then Tang Chu's questioning was over.

"Tang Chu, where is the prisoner that this official put you to watch, take us over quickly!" Zhao Xianling asked fakely.

Tang Chu naturally knew who he was talking about, "That person is in the wing, and a few adults come with me." ”

Tang Chu blessed his body, walked in front, and led several adults to Li Ming's residence.

After turning a few corners, I came to a deep and quiet place, surrounded by handles, and it seemed that important prisoners were being held.

The door was opened, Li Ming looked outside, his hands were chained, he had received the news long before a stick of incense, and knew that it was time for him to appear, so he asked people to put these things back on him, although he was uncomfortable wearing shackles, but this would not make people suspicious.

"My lords, this is where Li Ming is being held." Tang Chu's voice came.

Immediately after that, a pair of official boots stepped in.

Duan Hengzhi fixed his eyes and saw that there was a man lying on the bed, his limbs bound by shackles.

Zhao Xianling coughed lightly, and the man on the bed opened his sleepy eyes.

"Second prince, don't come unharmed!" Zhao County Ling said.

Tang Chu retreated with great discernment, and the door was closed again.
