Chapter 525

Just when everyone thought Zu Yiming didn't dare to agree, he finally said slowly, "Okay, just kneel, anyway, I owe you what I owe you, this time I will pay it back to you!"

When these words came out, Zhuo Hang narrowed his eyes, he never thought that Zu Yiming would really agree to such a bet.

But so what if he agrees, he can afford it anyway!
Thinking of this, Zhuo Hang turned his body sideways to make way for Zu Yiming, "Search casually."

Zu Yiming snorted coldly, and immediately let his people into the carriage.

Gui Yuetian's dowry maid was named Tu'er. On the night of the incident, she had been guarding outside the new house, completely unaware of how her young lady disappeared.

After the incident, she blamed herself so much that she followed Zu Yiming's people all the time, just to help find Gui Yuetian's trace.

But until now, Gui Yuetian had no news at all, and she was very worried that something happened to him.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Tu'er got into Zhuo's carriage and looked for Gui Yuetian's trace one by one.

The people from Shuntian Mansion waited anxiously outside the carriage. Like Zu Yiming, they also hoped to find something so that they would not return empty-handed.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Tu'er suddenly exclaimed and shouted excitedly, "I found it, I found it!"

When these words came out, Zhuo Hang's expression changed instantly, while Zu Yiming became proud and looked into the carriage with interest, "Let's see how you can quibble this time!"

Seeing this situation, people from Shuntian Mansion also gathered around, and everyone stretched their necks, wanting to see how such a living person like Gui Yuetian hid in the carriage without being searched by them!

To their surprise, Tu'er happily got out of the carriage, and what he found was not Gui Yuetian, but a handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks.

"what is this?"

Zu Yiming asked.

Tu'er's eyes were full of tears, and he choked up and said, "This is the veil that the lady embroidered with her own hands before she got married. There is an osmanthus character embroidered on the corner of the veil, which is enough to prove the identity of the lady. She must have been in this carriage. stayed!"

Hearing this, Zu Yiming's eyes lit up, he turned his head to stare at Zhuo Hang, and stretched out his hand to grab his collar, "Zhuo Hang, tell me quickly, where did you hide my lady!"

Under the protection of his own servants, Zhuo Hang managed to avoid Zu Yiming's entanglement. He took a few steps back and said inexplicably, "I don't know where she is. Whether this handkerchief belongs to her or not is all up to me." Why should I believe your one-sided words?!"

Zu Yiming raised his handkerchief, pointed to the word "Gui" in the corner, and said angrily, "If this handkerchief didn't belong to my wife, wouldn't your Zhuo family embroider the word "Gui" on it when they are full and have nothing to do? Or Mr. Zhuo, do you have a special hobby, like to embroider other people's wives' surnames on handkerchiefs?"

When these words came out, the onlookers burst into laughter.

Zhuo Hang's face was dark, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing this situation, Zhan Dabao and others stepped forward and bowed their hands to Zhuo Hang, "Master Zhuo, please come with us to Shuntian Mansion and explain the whole thing clearly."

Hearing this, Zhuo Hang frowned, and the servants beside him also reminded: "My lord, we don't have to go, at worst, go back to the mansion and ask the master to send someone."

However, Zhuo Hang waved his hand. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, fighting in battle is always not beneficial to both parties.

Besides, he has a clear conscience in this matter and has nothing to be afraid of.

Thinking of this, Zhuo Hang said with a cold face: "I can go this trip with you, but before the matter is investigated, I hope you Shuntian Mansion can control public opinion and don't spread unfavorable news about our Zhuo family. Otherwise, ..."

He glared at Zu Yiming coldly, his eyes were full of intimidation and threats, "Our Zhuo family will never stop here."

"That's natural."

Zhan Dabao patted his chest and assured Zhuo Hang, "We Shuntian Mansion will not make random conclusions before the investigation is clear."

Hearing his words, Zhuo Hang snorted coldly, got into the carriage with the help of his servants, and prepared to go back to Shuntian Mansion with them.

Seeing this situation, Zu Yiming curled his lips and said in displeasure: "I have been guilty first, and I am still so arrogant, if I was not worried about my wife's safety and insisted on betting with him, I would have really been bluffed by him. "

Hearing what he said, Hu Buxi smiled, "Are you sure you are worried about Miss Gui's safety, not your own face?"

Seeing her ruthlessly piercing himself again, Zu Yiming suddenly became anxious, "Miss Hu, can you stop being so prejudiced against me?"

"Whether this is prejudice or not, you know it in your heart."

Hu Buxi left this sentence coldly, and followed everyone back to Shuntian Mansion.

……

At the same time, Xing Shan waited at the door of Zhuo's house for a long time, but Zhuo Yuanhang never showed up.

Just when Xing Shan thought he really had to wait until tomorrow morning, he saw a servant rushing into Zhuo's mansion, and not long after, Zhuo Yuanhang came out of it.

Although Xing Shan came to visit this time as the head arrester of the Shuntian Mansion, Zhuo Yuanhang was always the minister of the Ministry of War, and he was a first-rank official. Even if Xing Wentian came to him, he had to respectfully call "Master Zhuo", What's more, it's Xing Shan, a young man.

Therefore, Xing Shan quickly stepped forward and bowed to the other party, "Humble post and Shun Tian Fu Xing Shan, please refer to Lord Zhuo."

Zhuo Yuanhang stopped, didn't even look at him, but looked straight at him, and said coldly, "I don't know why Shuntian Prefecture sent people to block the door of my Zhuo's house today, why?"

Xing Shan straightened up, bowed his hands to him, and said frankly: "My lord, I am here this time to discuss the case of the disappearance of the ancestral bride, and I want to discuss it with Master Zhuo."

"absurd!"

Zhuo Yuanhang scolded in a low voice, glaring and said: "The bride of the ancestral family is missing, what does our Zhuo family have to do with it? You have no proof, why should you rely on our Zhuo family for this matter?!"

Seeing his angry appearance, Xing Shan smiled lightly, and said bluntly: "Is it really unfounded? Then why did Master Zhuo come out in such a hurry?"

Hearing this, Zhuo Yuanhang narrowed his eyes.

He came out in such a hurry, naturally because of Zhuo Hang's arrest.

Originally, he planned to go to Shuntian Mansion himself, but now seeing Xing Shan's respectful appearance towards him, he couldn't figure out what Shuntian Mansion was thinking.

Seeing Zhuo Yuanhang's scrutinizing eyes, Xing Shan met his gaze without fear, "If possible, I would like to talk to Mr. Zhuo alone about Mr. Zhuo's arrest, maybe it can solve Mr. Zhuo's doubts. "

"Oh?"

Zhuo Yuanhang was a little surprised. He thought that Xing Shan brought so many people here because he wanted to search their Zhuo family, but he didn't expect it to be as simple as just wanting to chat with him.
