Chapter 67: Where Were You That Night?

"I, I ......"

Zhao Huaizhi was in charge for a long time, and he couldn't say why.

Ah Yao said patiently: "Zhao Huaizhi, you are now a wanted criminal in Kyoto, and you can't escape from Kyoto." ”

Zhao Huaizhi looked at her in a panic, but still didn't speak.

"The person who wants you is Su Yuyan, do you still plan to help her?"

"What did you say?" Zhao Huaizhi's face was surprised, "Is it Su Yuyan who wants me?" ”

Ah Yao nodded lightly, "Su Yuyan asked her younger brother Su Mingxuan to go to the government to report the case, saying that you borrowed money and didn't pay it back, and the government knew that Su Yuyan was the regent's side concubine, so they immediately started to issue a wanted warrant." ”

Zhao Huaizhi lowered his eyes and muttered in disbelief: "Slut! How dare you plot against me behind your back! ”

"I know that my mother was handed over to you by Su Yuyan, you didn't want to hurt my mother, as long as you return my mother to me, I will give you money to help you escape from Kyoto." She patiently persuaded Zhao Huaizhi.

Zhao Huai hesitated, "You will really help me escape from Kyoto?" ”

"Of course."

After a pause, she continued: "Su Yuyan has begun to want you, she is no longer trustworthy, and I am different, I just want to get back to my mother." ”

"But your mother is ...... in Suicheng"

You also know what happened to my mother in Suicheng!

Treat a patient like this, and your conscience will be eaten by dogs!

She let go of her clenched hand and forced her to look unconcerned.

"There is a debtor and a debtor, all of this is because of Su Yuyan, I will not be angry with you, after I rescue my mother, I will slowly settle accounts with her."

"Are you telling you true?"

"I swear." She raised her hand to make an oath.

Zhao Huaizhi swallowed nervously and hesitated, "Okay!" I believe you. ”

"Where is my mother?" She took the opportunity to ask.

"Your mother is in a very safe place, but I can't take you to see her now, you prepare a thousand taels of silver for me, and we will meet here in two days, you give me the silver, and I will take you to your mother."

"Okay."

Don't say 1,000 taels, as long as she can find her mother, even if it's 10,000 taels, she will find a way to get it.

Seeing that she promised so simply, Zhao Huaizhi looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are dressed shabby, I didn't expect you to be quite refreshing, am I going to be less?" ”

Ah Yao held back her anger.

"I changed my mind, I want five thousand taels."

"Good!"

Zhao Huaizhi suddenly approached her, circled around her, and stood in front of her.

"Five thousand taels have agreed, how much money do you have?"

"I don't have any money, but I can figure it out."

"I don't care what you think, as long as you can give me five thousand taels of silver, I will return your mother to you."

"It's a deal!"

Zhao Huaizhi touched his chin and looked at her, "I count when I speak." ”

"Take care of my mother, I'll come back in two days."

With that, she turned to leave.

Treating a scoundrel like Zhao Huaizhi, you can't be tough, you can only outwit.

Now I have reached an agreement with him, and I will wait for two days to pay the money in one hand and return it in the other.

money, Zhao Huaizhi doesn't want to get it.

He has to stay!

……

Ah Yao slipped in from the back door of the Regent's Mansion quietly, and was just about to continue working as if nothing had happened, when she heard Su Yuyanjiao's voice from the side corridor.

"Why did the prince have time to accompany his concubine for a walk in the mansion today?"

Rong Qianhan didn't reply.

"Lord Wang, the weather has been good recently, suitable for going out to play, why don't we ......"

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to the backyard.

The sharp-eyed Su Yuyan saw Ah Yao who was washing clothes at a glance, and deliberately said loudly, "Ah Yao." ”

Hearing this, A-Yao got up and stepped forward.

"The slave has seen the prince and the side concubine."

"Why are you sweating profusely? Are you tired? ”

Su Yuyan took out a handkerchief intimately, and was about to wipe the beads of sweat on her forehead.

She took a step back and dodged Su Yuyan's veil, "Don't dare to bother the side concubine, just wipe it with your sleeve." ”

She raised her hand and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

"You used to be the most neat at the Prime Minister's Mansion, but I didn't expect to come to the Regent's Mansion, you are still so diligent, but don't tire yourself out."

"Thank you for your concern."

"Thank you, you have served me for so many years, and our relationship has long surpassed that of master and servant, and I have always treated you as a good sister."

Ah Yao hung her head, unwilling to answer Su Yuyan's pretended words.

Su Yuyan glanced at Rong Qianhan with her afterglow, and took her hand with a smile, "The clothes you washed are fragrant, even the prince likes it very much, and the prince still remembers the smell on my body on the wedding night." ”

As she spoke, she lowered her head with a blushing face.

She deliberately mentioned the wedding night to dispel the suspicions in Rong Qianhan's heart.

Hearing her mention the wedding night, A-Yao's expression was a little unnatural.

Rong Qianhan successfully captured A-Yao's expression, and asked in a deep voice, "Where were you on your wedding night?" ”

His words surprised Su Yuyan and Ah Yao at the same time.

Why did he suddenly ask this in front of them?

Su Yuyan poked Ah Yao with her elbow and reminded her with a smile, "The prince asked you something, answer quickly." ”

"Back to the prince's words, the slave maid has been waiting outside the house that night, and only went back to the room to rest when it was almost dawn, if you don't believe it, you can ask the people in the same room."

Rong Qianhan didn't speak again.

Su Yuyan answered, "Yes! The maidservant beside me happened to be unwell that night, so I asked Ah Yao to wait outside the room. ”

He suddenly leaned closer to Ah Yao and asked, "Why has the smell on your body changed?" ”

"The slave ran out of incense before, so I didn't use it anymore."

"Ouch! The incense powder I gave you before ran out, why didn't you say it earlier? Go back to me and get another box, but you are the person I brought from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I can't let people say that I have treated you badly. ”

"Thank you, concubine."

Ah Yao didn't dare to raise her eyes to look at Rong Qianhan, but she could detect that his gaze was still on her.

What did he discover, and why did he ask about the wedding night from time to time?

At present, she is in a hurry to save her, and she has no time to deal with Rong Qianhan's side, hoping that his side will not cause any more trouble.

"Lord, let's go to the back garden for a walk! Don't disturb them at work. Su Yuyan reminded.

Rong Qianhan glanced at her and turned to leave.

Watching Rong Qian and Su Yuyan walk away, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At night, A-Yao didn't go back to her room to rest.

She grinds daggers in the backyard!

Sharpen the dagger, and give Zhao Huaizhi a pleasure when the time comes.

Halfway through the dagger, she suddenly heard a rush of footsteps.

Someone's coming!

She looked around and found a corner to hide.

A black figure came to the backyard and went straight to the back door.

The dark shadow opened the back door and went out, and a man and a woman whispered outside the door.

Ah Yao quietly approached the back door and hid in the door to listen.

"Someone has already paid 5,000 taels, if you are willing to give 10,000, I will return the person to you, otherwise I will give the person to her."

"How dare you blackmail me!?"

"You want me, why can't I blackmail you? We are each other. ”

It's Su Yuyan and Zhao Huaizhi!

Zhao Huaizhi actually came to Su Yuyan again to ask for money.

This kind of brazen and despicable villain really has no integrity to talk about, and he wants to eat at both ends.

Su Yuyan thought for a moment and compromised: "Ten thousand taels is too much, can you have less?" ”

"You are now the side concubine of the regent, and the concubine of the prime minister, a mere 10,000 taels of silver is nothing to you, right?"

"But I can't get that much money out of my hand at once."

"I don't care about this, if you can't come up with so much silver, I will hand over that old lady to her tomorrow, and you will regret going then!"

"You ......"

Su Yuyan glared at Zhao Huaizhi viciously, and in the end he could only be forced to compromise.

"Okay, 10,000 is 10,000."

"Sure enough, it's the side concubine, it's a refreshing atmosphere."

"You'd better keep your promise, if she finds someone first, not only will you have no money, but your life may be gone." Su Yuyan warned coldly.

"Don't worry, go and prepare the silver!"

Seeing that the two were about to separate after speaking, Ah Yao immediately hid it.

A moment later, Su Yuyan came in through the back door, left the backyard and went back to the front yard.

She immediately chased out the back door and followed Zhao Huaizhi.

In the middle of the night, the streets of Kyoto were empty, Zhao Huaizhi hummed a little song in his mouth, and walked forward with cheerful steps, not noticing that anyone was following him.

He came all the way to Tianxiang Pavilion and swaggered into Tianxiang Pavilion from the main entrance.

Another brothel!

Has this dog been living in a brothel?

At present, the brothel is full of prostitutes and prostitutes, and it is inconvenient for her to enter alone.

As she stood outside the door hesitating what to do, a turtle slave grinned and sent a son out.

She had a plan, and after her son left, she stepped forward to stop the turtle slave. 、

The turtle slave looked at her suspiciously, "What is the girl going to do?" ”

Her eyes flickered, and she immediately burst into tears.

"Y-Why are you crying here?"

She sobbed and said: "My father-in-law has not been home for several days, I heard his friend say that he stayed in Tianxiang Pavilion all night, this negative man who killed a thousand knives, put the old mother who was sick in bed, and the child who was waiting to be fed, he actually took the hard-earned money I earned to come here to look for flowers and willows." ”

"Youβ€”don't cry yet!"

This kind of thing, the turtle slave has seen a lot, and there is no fuss.

But she was crying at the door of Tianxiang Pavilion, which affected their Tianxiang Pavilion's business a lot.

Ah Yao looked at the turtle slave with teary eyes, "This little brother, can you do me a favor?" ”

"What's busy."

"Did you see the man in white who went in just now?"

The turtle slave thought carefully for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Do you mean Zhao Gongzi?" ”

"Yes, that's him!"

"You are actually Zhao Gongzi's wife?" The turtle slave looked at her with a look of surprise on her face.

"That's right! Do you know how long he's been in Tianxiang Pavilion? ”

"It's been a few days, and I've been living in Tianxiang Pavilion."

"Is he alone? Did you bring anyone with you? Yao asked.

The turtle slave shook his head.

"And who is he staying with?"

The turtle slave was a little embarrassed and didn't reply.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to trouble that girl, I just want to know what kind of girl he likes, I'm going to cater to his preferences and keep him at home."
