The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Chapter 80 Shi Wei'an meets the 4th prince

In another luxuriously decorated courtyard of the Li Mansion.

Shi Weian was furious.

Glancing at the head guard kneeling on the ground, Shi Wei'an's face was gloomy and he said in a cold tone: "I really have a bunch of useless people! We have clearly found where Qi Qi is hiding, but with so many of you, you still can't beat those two villains!"

As for the previous scene in the Red-Liu Lane, it was a huge shame for Yu Shi Weian!

Qiuqiu was standing not far ahead, but he could only watch her being taken away by those two villains!

What a bunch of trash!

If he had not brought only these guards with him this time, leaving him with no one to use, these people would have died hundreds of times already!

A message had already been sent back to Jiangning, asking Butler Shi to send some people over first, but he hasn't received any news until now!

I don’t know what Butler Shi does for a living!

"It is my incompetence, please punish me, sir!"

The captain of the guard lowered his head, and the hideous sword wound on his right shoulder was still dripping blood.

After returning from the Flower and Willow Lane, because he was unable to bring Liu Qiuqiu back, and now that the master was angry, the captain of the guards had no choice but to kneel on the ground and apologize to the master, regardless of his own injuries.

When he heard the word "punishment", Shi Wei'an became even more furious. With a cold face, he kicked the guard leader, hitting him right on the wound. "If I had no one to use right now, do you think you could still be alive?"

The wound on his right shoulder seemed to have split open, and the piercing pain came over him. The captain of the guards did not dare to resist at all. He endured it and swallowed all the pain in his heart.

Seeing the guard leader lowering his head and not moving, Shi Wei'an sneered: "What? Are you not convinced?"

"My subordinates dare not."

The captain of the guard stiffened.

Shi Wei'an sneered: "I don't have the guts to do this even if I leave you alone! Get out and continue searching for Qiqi's whereabouts. If you can't find Qiqi, you should know what the consequences will be!"

"Yes, I understand."

The captain of the guard responded.

Seeing that the master had no other instructions, the captain of the guard stood up and walked out.

After walking a few steps, another guard came in from outside.

Seeing the captain of the guard's pale face, Wang Bao couldn't help but worry about his injuries.

But now that the master was right in front of him, Wang Bao didn't dare to make any small moves and could only hope that they could return to Jiangning as soon as possible.

"Sir, I have something important to report to you!"

Wang Bao walked forward and knelt on one knee to report.

Shi Wei'an's anger had not dissipated. He closed his eyes, then opened them again, stared at Wang Bao coldly, and asked in a calm voice, "What's the matter?"

Wang Bao's heart trembled, and he pretended to be calm and said, "I just heard a message from Lord Jia, saying that Lord Jia has found the place where the fourth prince is staying."

Four princes!

Shi Weian narrowed his eyes, and a dark color flashed in his deep eyes. He really didn't expect that the Fourth Prince was still in Suzhou!

If the Fourth Prince was not coming for him, how could he have stayed in Suzhou for so long?

After all, Suzhou’s prosperity cannot compare to Shengjing, so how could it make the Fourth Prince linger?

"Where is the Fourth Prince now?"

Wang Bao: "The Fourth Prince is at Yuelai Inn."

Shi Wei'an: "Wang Bao, tell Lord Jia that I want to meet the Fourth Prince and ask him if he wants to come with me."

"Yes."

After answering, Wang Bao did not dare to delay. He hurried out of the yard and went out to do what the adults had asked him to do.

The second-floor wing room of Yuelai Inn.

"Wenkang, Wenchao, do you think my good second brother is in Suzhou?"

Xie Jin, dressed in a blue brocade robe, leaned against the window, his sharp eyes fixed on the street below, as if he was trying to find someone in the crowd.

"This……"

Wen Kang and Wen Chao looked at each other quickly, not knowing how to respond to their master's words.

His Royal Highness's men were too cunning. When they were halfway along the trail, they were careless and couldn't find which direction His Royal Highness's men were going.

Afterwards, Wen Kang and his companions could only follow the traces of the two carriages that the Crown Prince was riding in and chase them all the way to Suzhou.

Wen Kang pondered for a moment before saying, "Master, in my opinion, there is a high possibility that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be in Suzhou."

"Oh?"

Xie Jin slowly withdrew his gaze, and looked up at Wen Kang, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, and a nonchalant smile appeared: "Wen Kang, when you went out earlier, did you find out any useful information in the city?"

They had just entered the city this morning and had just settled down in Yuelai Inn when Wen Kang volunteered to go out and find out the situation.

When they first arrive, they have to figure out the situation before they can deal with other things.

Wen Chao stayed by the Fourth Prince's side, responsible for his safety.

"My Lord, I heard that the Jiangnan Governor Shi Wei'an, who was originally stationed in Jiangning, came to Suzhou in person a few days ago."

Wen Kang did find out a lot of things during this trip, so he reported them to his master one by one:

"Shi Weian originally came to the Li residence to congratulate, but unexpectedly, halfway through the wedding banquet, a villain suddenly appeared and kidnapped Shi Weian's favorite concubine. Now Shi Weian is still searching everywhere for the whereabouts of that concubine..."

"Is there such a thing?"

Xie Jin, who was originally careless, was stunned for a moment.

But Xie Jin didn't care about the abduction of the mistress. He only cared about...

Xie Jin frowned slightly, and tapped the table with his slender fingers, muttering, "Jiangnan Governor Shi Wei'an?"

"If my second brother wants to investigate the bribery of Jiangnan officials, he will first investigate the Governor-General of Jiangnan. After all, the Governor-General of Jiangnan controls the affairs of the entire Jiangnan officialdom."

"If officials from Jiangnan want to embezzle or accept bribes, they must go through the Governor-General of Jiangnan..."

"In this case, I guess my second brother will definitely try every possible way to get close to Shi Wei'an."

"Now that Shi Weian is in Suzhou, my second brother will also be in Suzhou."

At this point, Xie Jin's eyes flashed with a hint of anger, and he ordered Wen Chao: "Wen Chao, send two strangers out to check the whereabouts of the second brother."

Xie Jin brought a lot of people with him on this outing. In addition to the two guards in the open, there were also many unfamiliar faces who could be used.

This time, Xie Jin came prepared. He would not let his good second brother return to Shengjing safely, nor would he let his second brother successfully obtain the evidence of Jiangnan officials' bribery. Those evidences would eventually fall into his hands!

Wen Chao: "Master, rest assured, I will definitely get this done."

Xie Jin raised his hand: "Okay, go out."

"Yes."

Wen Chao retreated silently.

Xie Jin picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and then continued to stare at the street below.

Suddenly, a dozen guards were seen passing by the street and guarding the door of Yuelai Inn.

Who on earth made such a big fuss when traveling?

Xie Jin sneered and was about to speak when he heard a burst of noise coming from downstairs of the inn, which seemed to be very noisy.

Xie Jin frowned slightly, looking worried.

Wen Kang sensed his master's displeasure and immediately said, "Master, I will go down and take a look."

"Ah."

The Fourth Prince never liked noise. As a subordinate, Wen Kang was well aware of his master's temper.

Wen Kang gripped the sword tightly, opened the door, and walked out quickly.

The lobby downstairs is being cleared out.

Wang Bao, who was following Shi Weian, showed his identity token and asked that all the guests in the lobby of the inn be cleared out so as not to disturb their masters from receiving the guests.

As soon as the token was issued, the other party used power to pressure the owner of Yuelai Inn. Even if he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to say "no" in front of the other party.

The shopkeeper had a bitter face and ordered several waiters to ask all the guests who were dining to leave. Not only could he not collect the meal money from the guests, but he also had to apologize to those guests like a grandson. What a huge loss!

But the other party is a high-ranking official, and these powerless people cannot afford to offend him!

Fortunately, most of the guests who came to dine at Yuelai Inn this time were regular customers. Now they saw the shopkeeper being embarrassed and a high-ranking official taking the lead in clearing the area. Even if they were angry, they could only suppress it temporarily.

Everyone cursed the corrupt official in their hearts, saying that he would be struck by lightning sooner or later!

After asking all the guests to leave, the shopkeeper wiped the sweat off his forehead with a towel and said with his head bowed, "Sir, all the guests have been asked to leave. Would you like to have dinner?"

"No need."

Shi Weian sat at the table in the middle of the lobby and asked the shopkeeper to clear the area, just to force the Fourth Prince to come down in person.

Although Lord Jia was seriously ill and bedridden and could not come in person, he asked the boy who stayed in Yuelai Inn to tell Shi Weian that the nobleman he wanted to see was on the second floor.

There are more than a dozen rooms on the second floor, and the Fourth Prince would stay in one of them. For fear of disturbing the Fourth Prince, Shi Weian did not send anyone to break in, but chose to make a noise in the lobby of the inn.

Shi Weian believed that the Fourth Prince would definitely be able to hear the noise downstairs and would send someone down to investigate.

Shi Wei'an turned the empty wine glass in his hand and raised his hand to signal the shopkeeper to leave: "Don't stand in front of me like a piece of wood. Stand further away and don't block me."

Shopkeeper: "..."

It would have been fine if the inn had made a loss today, but the owner was also scolded by the adults. He felt aggrieved and angry, and bubbles came out of the corners of his mouth. He didn't even dare to fart and could only leave in shame.

Wen Kang stood on the second floor and watched for a while, then turned back to the wing room to report the situation downstairs to his master:

"Master, it's the Jiangnan Governor Shi Wei'an who has come over. He showed his identity token and asked the shopkeeper to ask all the guests dining in the hall to leave."

"I suspect that the other party is coming for the master."

When they entered the city, they deliberately revealed the identity of their master. They originally wanted to lure the governor of Suzhou to come and see their master, but unexpectedly, the governor of Suzhou did not come, and the Governor-General of Jiangnan, Shi Weian, was lured here first.

Xie Jin was not surprised by Wen Kang's words, "Is it just Shi Weian?"

Wen Kang nodded: "Besides Shi Wei'an, there are only his guards."

"It seems that the governor of Suzhou can keep his composure."

Xie Jin sneered and said calmly: "This prince is of noble status, and not everyone can see him. Let him wait for half an hour."

"Yes."

Wen Kang had no objection to his master's order and stood quietly by.

The two people on the second floor were patient, but Shi Weian was already getting impatient.

Shi Wei'an had a cold expression, and his sharp eyes were like knives, staring at the boy who was in charge of following him. "Didn't you say that the nobleman was in the inn? I have been waiting for so long, why can't I see the nobleman?"

Being stared at, Xiao Lizi couldn't help but shudder, his face turned pale, and he was so scared that he stammered: "Your Excellency, your Excellency is upstairs!"

The nobleman was indeed upstairs. After receiving the order from the big brother guarding the city, Xiao Lizi had been guarding the lobby of Yuelai Inn, never leaving for a moment.

The nobleman he was responsible for keeping an eye on never came out.

Xiao Lizi was afraid that his life would be in danger. He took a few deep breaths, suppressed his fear, and continued, "If, if you want to see that noble, please go upstairs."

After a pause, Xiao Lizi quickly added, "It's in the third room on the second floor."

Shi Weian was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.

Wang Bao, who was standing by, glanced at Xiao Lizi and said, "Sir, why don't you let me go up and check the situation first?"

As soon as these words came out, Shi Wei'an rejected them, "No."

He couldn't act rashly as he didn't know the Fourth Prince's temper. Moreover, the Fourth Prince was in Suzhou at the moment and might very well come to investigate his background.

Shi Weian decided to take the initiative: "Wang Bao, you and Zhang Lei follow me upstairs."

Zhang Lei, who was named, stepped forward and bowed his head and replied, "Yes, sir."

"Let's go."

Shi Weian took the lead and walked in front.

Wang Bao and Zhang Lei quickly followed, while the other guards continued to guard the lobby of the inn.

After going up to the second floor, Shi Weian stood at the door of the third room and motioned Wang Bao to go forward and knock on the door.

Inside the side room, Xie Jin and Wen Kang had already heard the noise outside.

The two looked at each other, and Xie Jin put down the wine glass in his hand, "Here it comes."

Before he could finish his words, there was a knock on the door.

Xie Jin raised his chin and said, "Go open the door."

Wenkang went over and opened the door.

As soon as he saw the three people standing outside, Wen Kang asked, "Who are you and why are you knocking on the door?"

Shi Weian took out his identity token and said, "I am Shi Weian, the governor of Jiangnan, and I am here to visit the Fourth Prince."

Wen Kang glanced at the two guards following behind Shi Weian and said in a light tone: "You can come in, but the two behind you can't come in."

Shi Wei'an's face froze, and he narrowed his eyes and asked, "No one can come in?"

Wen Kang: "My master is of noble status, not everyone can see him."

Shi Wei'an: "..."

Wang Bao: “…”

Zhang Lei: “…”

After a stalemate, Shi Wei'an finally compromised, "Okay."

"Wang Bao, Zhang Lei, you just stand guard at the door."

Wang Bao and Zhang Lei responded at the same time: "Yes, sir!"

Seeing this, Wen Kang leaned aside and said, "Please."

Shi Weian stepped over the threshold and walked into the wing room.

When he raised his eyes, Shi Weian saw the young man in brocade robe sitting next to the window.

She has a noble temperament, delicate eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and outstanding looks, worthy of being born into a royal family.

Noticing the golden identity token hanging on the waist of the young man in brocade robe, Shi Wei'an reacted instantly and bowed: "Your Majesty, Jiangnan Governor Shi Wei'an pays homage to the Fourth Prince."
