Chapter 281: House arrest in disguise
Chapter 281: House arrest in disguise
Liu Shangbiao had nothing to say after seeing this scene, so he could only hang his head and prepare to be at the mercy of Chu Ruoyi. Chu Ruoyao looked at Liu Shangbiao, who was obviously a little decadent, and was secretly happy in his heart, as long as he didn't come out in the past few days, then Liu Yi's matter might have a solution.
"Liu Shangbiao, go back first, if this king doesn't call you, you don't have to come out in the next few days." Chu Ruowei thought about it enough and released her words, which was equivalent to putting Liu Shangbiao under house arrest in disguise.
After Liu Shangbiao left, his so-called colleagues looked at each other, although they did what Chu Ruoyao wanted, but they didn't know what to do now. Just when they were confused, they received a large number of files in their hands, which were written about some ordinary people.
"After you go back, you must do as the king tells you, and you must not leave anything out, and you must not harm the people, do you hear?"
"Yes, King Yan." The people below hurriedly nodded yes and went back with a bunch of new files. As long as they escaped the catastrophe here at King Yan, it would be a blessing for them.
After sending these people away, Chu Ruoyan looked at Li Luobing next to her, but found that she was not looking at herself at this time, but frowning at Zhao Wu's records, and asking him a few words while watching, with an extremely serious expression. Chu Ruoyan knew that it was an extremely correct choice for her to have Li Luobing by her side.
If Li Luobing was not by his side but in the Yanwang Mansion at this time, then Chu Ruoyan would not be able to imagine his life at all.
"Okay, you'll have to record it in more detail in the future, but there's no need to record those meaningless words."
Li Luobing instructed Zhao Wu sentence after sentence, but Zhao Wu nodded nervously. Chu Ruoyan looked at Li Luobing like this and felt relieved. After Li Luobing finished instructing, he realized that Chu Ruoyan had been looking at him for a long time, and suddenly his face flushed, and Zhao Wu quickly lowered his head when he saw such a situation.
"We'll go out in a moment." Chu Ruoyao glanced at Zhao Wu, who was recording, lowered his voice and said to Li Luobing. Li Luobing looked at Chu Ruoyan and asked him where he was going.
"Go to Liu Yi's house." Chu Ruoyao whispered again. Now that Liu Shangbiao is under house arrest, it is no problem for them to go to Liu Yi's house if they are careful.
Hearing Chu Ruoyao say that he was going to Liu Yi's house, Li Luobing nodded. Liu Yi's matter has always been pressing on her heart, and if there is no way to solve this matter, she may not even be able to sleep well.
After a simple disguise, the two left Dali Temple and went directly to Liu Yi's house in a carriage. It took them half an hour to get here.
Liu Yi in the house heard that there was movement outside and came out to check, and when he saw that it was a carriage he didn't know, he was still very puzzled, and he didn't react until Li Luobing and Chu Ruoyi got off the carriage.
"Yan ......" As soon as he wanted to open his mouth to address the two, the two shook their heads slightly, and at this time Liu Yi noticed that the two of them were dressed as ordinary people, and immediately understood that the two of them had to keep a low profile.
"Come in, two!" Liu Yi swallowed back the sentence "King Yan" just now, and welcomed the two into the house. After Li Luobing stepped into Liu Yi's house, he found that Liu Yi and his mother were really having a hard time, except for this leaky thatched hut and a little bit of field, there was nothing else.
Li Luobing looked around, and could see that there were still some traces of Zhang's life, in addition to Liu Yi's old mother, there were also a few clothes that looked like young women, which were neatly folded and placed next to them.
"Those are the things that the insiders used to use." Liu Yi said after seeing Li Luobing's eyes fall on the pile of clothes.
Chu Ruoyan didn't care about Li Luobing's affairs, he was going to tell Liu Yi a small part of the truth, but these things couldn't be known to Liu Yi's old mother. So a few people chatted there for a while, and finally waited for Liu Yi's mother to rest, and they opened their mouths.
"The grass people have seen King Yan, Princess Yan." Liu Yi only carefully saluted Chu Ruoyu after his mother entered the house. When the two saw that they couldn't stop it, they let him go.
Liu Yi also sat on the side after the salute: "I don't know what King Yan and Princess Yan are here for today?" But what happened to the grass people's insiders? Liu Yi looked at Li Luobing and Chu Ruoyao expectantly.
The two looked at Liu Yi, who had eager eyes, and didn't know how to answer. After investigating this matter, they found out that it seemed to be a simple disappearance case, but it was related to the prince, and the key figure in this incident was Liu Shangbiao.
"How did the Zhang family disappear?" After thinking about it repeatedly, Chu Ruoyan still didn't directly tell the whereabouts of the Zhang family, but started from Liu Yi's memories and asked him to tell the story in detail.
Liu Yi thought about it and repeated what happened carefully. He went to farm, and when he came home, he found that only his old mother was at home, saying that Zhang had gone shopping. Liu Yi didn't take it to heart, so he waited for a long time and didn't see Zhang's shadow, and after looking everywhere, he didn't find it......
"Then you went to report to the police, right?" Chu Ruoyan asked. After Liu Yi nodded, he had already said what happened later, and he fell silent at this time.
"Actually, we already have a rough idea of who this person is, but ......" This is the first time that Chu Ruoqi has been so hesitant to speak.
"What? Is there really a whereabouts of the insider? Liu Yi stood up excitedly, and didn't dare to shout loudly, just looked at the two of them with an anxious face. But gradually he realized that something was wrong.
Since the two of them said that there was news about the Zhang family, why didn't they rescue the Zhang family quickly, but ran all the way to themselves?
"This matter will not be clear for a while, but there will be no result for a long time, which not only involves Liu Shangbiao, but also the people in the palace." Chu Ruoyi's words were extremely vague, but Liu Yi could hear the meaning of the words as soon as he heard it.
His face suddenly turned to ashes, and he sat down directly to the side. At first, he still had hope, but when he heard Chu Ruoyan say that this matter was likely to have something to do with the people in the palace, he knew that his hopes were dashed.
Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing couldn't bear to look at Liu Yi like this, but they couldn't tell him too much for his sake.
"King Yan, Princess Yan, do you know if my inner man is dead or alive now?" Liu Yi raised his eyelids and asked.
Chu Ruoyan shook her head with difficulty, and Liu Yi could only smile bitterly.
"What can I do as a people? Originally, I thought that my husband and wife would be able to reunite, but ......" Liu Yi shook his head bitterly, and the little fire in his heart was completely extinguished.
"We're investigating, but it's not because of you, it's because of something else, I can only tell you so much now, this is for the sake of your life, if you don't go out during this time, you won't go out, I will let people secretly protect your family." Chu Ruoyao's words were a little stiff and comforted.
Liu Yi also knew that this was the best way now, and as for the Zhang family, who did not see people in life and died without seeing corpses, it became a pimple in his heart.
Li Luobing looked at Liu Yi, who was all decadent, and couldn't bear it, so he took out some silver from his purse to supplement their families.
"If you want to leave, it's okay, I'll help you, and I'll contact you once the problem about the Zhang family is resolved." Chu Ruoyao looked at Liu Yi, who bowed his head and was silent, and said.
"Where else can we go but here?" Liu Yi also knew that it was the best choice for him to leave the capital now, at least he wouldn't worry about his life and the safety of his old mother all day long.
"There is a small town not far from the capital, you can go there if you want, and when the time comes, I will have someone prepare it for you, and settle down there to do business. Since you are safe, it will be convenient for us to find you in the future. Chu Ruoyan said to Liu Yi what he had thought about a long time ago.
At first, he didn't say it because he was afraid that Liu Yi would not be able to accept the matter of leaving his homeland, but after seeing Liu Yi's expression just now, he realized that leaving here was actually the best choice for him. After listening to Chu Ruoyao's words, Liu Yi also felt that this was the best way, so he nodded directly and agreed.
Chu Ruoyao asked Liu Yi to wait for a few days, and when he asked Guo Dong and others to deal with the matter, he asked Liu Yi to take him and his old mother together.
When Chu Ruoya and Li Luobing left, Liu Yi's mother hadn't woken up yet, and he sent the two to the door with a thousand thanks, Li Luobing waved at him and motioned him to go back to the house.
Then Li Luobing got into the carriage with Chu Ruoyao, and when he was sitting in the carriage and driving towards Dali Temple, Li Luobing opened his mouth and asked Chu Ruoyao if he had thought of doing this before.
Chu Ruoqi nodded and did not deny this matter: "If Liu Yi leaves the capital, then the prince and Liu Shangbiao's people will not trouble him anymore, but if he has been in the capital, Liu Yi will become a thorn in their side, and they are bound to worry that Liu Yi has been reporting to the official, so Liu Yi is likely to be directly killed by them."
"Does the prince dare to do this?" Li Luobing asked Chu Ruoyao, although she knew that the prince was ruthless. But at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and with the officials of Dali Temple, it is still a little unbelievable.
Chu Ruoyan glanced at Li Luobing and said, "You think too simply, there are many files in Dali Temple that are vague, but in fact, there are ghosts made by those princes in the palace behind the scenes." The father knew these things, but if he didn't make too many waves, he would turn a blind eye, so as not to affect the majesty of the court. ”
"The majesty of the court?" Li Luobing was puzzled, "I didn't expect that in the eyes of the emperor, the majesty of the court is more important than the lives of the people." ”
