Jing Zhaoyin.

When Cao Yufeng and Wang's mother stood in the lobby of Jing Zhaoyin, they looked at each other.

Ji Quanzhong looked at Master and Servant Cao Yufeng with a serious face.

He interrogated the bandits and Chunhua from Tianhu Village overnight.

"Cao Yufeng, Mrs. Liu Su of the Jiang family was kidnapped on the street yesterday. I have caught the criminal. According to the criminal's confession, the mastermind is Wang's husband Zhang Wangcai. Were you the instigator of this matter?"

Cao Yufeng quickly cried out: "Sir, if you give a civilian woman a hundred courages, even a civilian woman would not dare to do such a thing."

Ji Quanzhong said angrily: "Ms. Jiang Cao, you only need to answer yes or no, don't say more."

"Reporting to your lord, the civilian woman has no idea."

Cao Yufeng shied away completely.

"Zhang Wangcai's wife Wang is your dowry mother. How dare you say that this matter has nothing to do with you."

Ji Quanzhong didn't believe Cao Yufeng's lies.

Where did the servants get the courage to kidnap officials' family members?

"My lord, please be careful."

Cao Yufeng insisted that this matter had nothing to do with her.

Ji Quanzhong turned his attention to Mrs. Wang: "Ms. Zhang Wang, please tell me why your husband kidnapped Mrs. Liu Su of Jiang Mansion for no reason?"

Mother Wang's thoughts went back and forth, but she shied away completely: "I really don't know."

It seemed that they were unwilling to tell the truth. Ji Quanzhong said in a deep voice: "Come here, please take them into custody pending trial."

"Master Ji, wait a minute."

Jiang Bonian hurried over and heard that Ji Quanzhong was about to take Cao into custody, so he hurriedly stopped him.

Ji Quanzhong followed the sound and looked over.

"Master Jiang."

Jiang Bonian cupped his hands and said, "Master Ji, could you please take a moment to speak."

Ji Quanzhong nodded in agreement, and the two of them went to Jing Zhaoyin's back hall and sat down.

"Master Ji, this is a misunderstanding. My wife is well at home and no one kidnapped her."

Jiang Bonian wanted to cover up this matter.

Ji Quanzhong took out the paper and said, "Master Jiang, please take a look."

Jiang Bonian picked up the petition and looked at it. He was immediately shocked to see that it was Liu's complaint, and his head was buzzing.

The family scandal cannot be publicized. He wants to calm down the matter and not ruin his official career.

"Master Ji, our Jiang family has revoked the petition. Can we just let this matter go?"

Ji Quanzhong snorted coldly: "Master Jiang, where do you think you are Jing Zhaoyin?"

Seeing that Ji Quanzhong was angry, Jiang Bonian said with a smile: "Master Ji, don't be angry. Please make it easier for Master Ji to do this."

Ji Quanzhong looked down upon people like Jiang Bonian who relied on nepotism to rise to power.

The Cao Mansion has already asked for favors from him for Cao Yufeng's affairs.

Because he owed Cao Mansion a favor, he still had to give him the face he deserved.

"Master Jiang, Jing Zhaoyin was the first to arrest someone on the street. If someone with an intention of reporting this to the Emperor is reported to the Emperor, I will be held responsible."

When Jiang Bonian heard that this matter was serious, he quickly said: "Master Ji will definitely not be involved."

Ji Quanzhong sneered in his heart and said without mincing words: "Master Jiang, the one who was kidnapped is your wife, and the one involved is your concubine. Everything is going well for the family!"

After being told by Ji Quanzhong, Jiang Bonian could only say with a smile:

"Please Sir Ji, please grant me your permission."

Ji Quanzhong waved his hand and said: "Master Jiang, the prince has paid attention to this case. Since I have received Mrs. Jiang's petition, this case also requires Mrs. Jiang to come to Jing Zhaoyin to withdraw the case. Tomorrow at the latest, if Mr. Jiang cannot properly resolve it , I still have to act according to the rules."

Jiang Bonian wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ji, I will definitely handle it well and not cause any trouble to Mr. Ji."

Ji Quanzhong snorted in his heart. If it weren't for the sake of Cao Mansion, he would not pay attention to Jiang Bonian at all.

"In that case, I will wait a moment."

Jiang Bonian spoke again: "Master Ji, can you let Mr. Cao go back to your home with me first?"

Ji Quanzhong frowned: "Master Jiang, if Mrs. Cao runs away, Master Jiang will be fully responsible."

Seeing Ji Quanzhong's displeasure, Jiang Bonian carefully kept his smile on his face.

"Thank you, Master Ji, for showing mercy. I will definitely come to thank you someday."

Ji Quanzhong said coldly: "Master Jiang, please go slowly without seeing me off."

Jiang Bonian bowed his hand to Ji Quanzhong: "Farewell."

"Master Jiang, the prince personally sent Mrs. Jiang to Jing Zhaoyin to report the crime."

Thinking of Cao Mansion, Ji Quanzhong gave Jiang Bonian a heads up.

"Thank you, Master Ji, for reminding me."

While talking, Jiang Bonian followed the government officials to take Cao Yufeng out of Jing Zhaoyin.

He sent someone to the palace to ask for leave. If he didn't handle the matter properly, he would once again become a joke in the capital.

Cao Yufeng was released on bail by Jiang Bonian, and she felt at ease, thinking that she was fine now.

She followed Jiang Bonian into Jiang Mansion's carriage.

Cao Yufeng looked at Jiang Bonian with a smile: "Master, I am..."

"Snapped."

There was a crisp sound, and Cao Yufeng received a slap on the face.

Suddenly, half of his face was tilted to the other side.

Her ears were ringing, and Cao Yufeng was confused.

"Did you instigate people to kidnap Mrs. Liu?"

Cao Yufeng shook her head and cried: "Master, this is such a great injustice."

"Unjustly accused? Huh, let me tell you, if you really did this, Jiang Mansion cannot tolerate you, so just go back to the Cao family."

Jiang Bonian got angry when he thought of asking for help in a humble manner in front of Ji Quanzhong.

"Master, I was really wronged."

Cao Yufeng denied it, and she would never admit it.

It would be too embarrassing to be driven back to the Cao family.

"Zhang Wangcai has no enmity with the Liu family. He is Mama Wang's husband. You said this matter has nothing to do with you. Are you lying?"

Everyone knows that this matter is closely related to Cao Yufeng.

"Master, this was all done by Zhang Wangcai and has nothing to do with me. I don't know when Zhang Wangcai became enemies with the Liu family."

Cao Yufeng looked like she had been greatly wronged.

Jiang Bonian's face was filled with dark clouds.

"master……"

Cao Yufeng called Jiang Bonian gently to prevent the sobs from falling out of her throat.

Jiang Bonian felt a little soft-hearted when he saw Cao Yufeng's aggrieved look.

After all, he was his pillow, and Jiang Bonian lost half of his anger.

"You will follow me to find Mrs. Liu later and find a way to get her to withdraw the complaint."

Cao Yufeng picked up the handkerchief and wiped her tears: "I obey the master."

Jiang Bonian was thinking about how to get Liu to revoke the petition.

Mrs. Liu is soft-hearted and easy to fool, but Jiang Wanwan is not easy to fool.

Cao Yufeng suppressed the anger in her heart. Damn Zhang Wangcai, he was so unlucky in doing things.

Not only did Ms. Liu return to the Jiang Mansion well, but she was also beaten by the master.

The two returned to Jiang Mansion and headed to Meiyuan.

"Master, please have some tea."

Maid Haitang brought hot tea.

Jiang Bonian sat on the main seat and drank tea.

Cao Yufeng sat down below, peeking at Jiang Bonian from time to time.

The two sat for a long time, but no one came.

Cao Yufeng heard the footsteps and quickly put on a humble look.

As soon as Jiang Wanwan came in, she saw Cao Yufeng's hypocritical look.

She walked over without looking away and stood in front of Jiang Bonian.

"What's the matter with father? If it's not urgent, we'll talk about it another day."
