Big traitor pregnant with my cub

Taking Xia Jing's emotions into consideration, Zhou Yi waited for a while before bringing the boy back.

At this time Xia Jing had calmed down, but he was still not comfortable facing Zhou Yi head-on, so he focused all his attention on the young man.

When he looked at the young man, he realized that this young man really had a good appearance. He looked like he was in the age of the elephant, with fine skin and tender flesh, red lips and white teeth. He was very different from the state of most people here. In addition to beauty, a large part of the reason is being carefully maintained on weekdays.

Now that the person has been brought back, it is time to ask about the specific situation: "You are from that troupe, why did you run out? Why did those people arrest you?"

The young man looked at Zhou Yi, then at Xia Jing, lowered his head, his eyeballs rolled around, then looked up at them again, finally made up his mind, and confessed: "The class leader sent me to Qian Zhifu's house, I don't want to Ken, they just want to tie me up!" As he said, he opened his sleeves, and there were indeed several traces of rope binding on his two slender wrists.

Xia Jing asked again: "Then Qian Zhifu can be regarded as a parent official in Nanyang, why don't you want to go?"

The young man was obviously a little excited: "I don't want to go. Brother Kui Zhu and Brother Yun Zhu never came back after they went. I don't want to be like them!" It is as terrifying as Longtan and Tiger's Den.

This is worth pondering, Zhou Yi raised his head and looked at Xia Jing who happened to be looking over, and both saw some kind of signal in the eyes of the other party.

Zhou Yi patted the boy's head: "Then what's your name?"

The boy said: "My name is Ruizhu."

"Okay, Rui Zhu, right? Now that you're here, you don't have to worry about being sent there. Where is your home? Now that you've left the troupe, is there a place to go?"

Ruizhu lowered her head, and her voice was also soft, sounding pitiful: "I am an orphan picked up by the troupe master. I grew up in the theater troupe since I was a child. At that time, I only wanted to escape, but where would I go after I escaped?" , I haven't thought about it yet."

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said: "Well, how about you follow us first, and find a way to find you a place later, how about it?"

The young man didn't respond immediately after hearing this, he looked at Xia Jing first, saw that he also nodded, and then responded: "Rui Zhu thank you two benefactors!"

Seeing that he was about to kneel down, Zhou Yi supported him in time: "There is no need to do that."

Xia Jing also said: "How about this, first you go to find the elder brother who took you to clean up just now, and let him arrange your accommodation. These days, you try not to leave the inn, and we will talk about the future."

Rui Zhu obediently responded, and obediently went out to find Xia Chuan.

When he left, Xia Jing said suddenly: "This kid really has a bit of wit, and he is very proficient at observing facial expressions."

But Zhou Yi said: "I think he has a bit of the shadow of you when you were young."

"Me? When I first met you?"

"That's right," Zhou Yi looked at Xia Jing with nostalgia in his eyes, "It was the same with you at that time, you were alone, and you looked good. After I brought you back, you looked obedient and timid. People are hurting."

Xia Jing felt a little embarrassed when he heard it, his eyes fluttered, and he reluctantly retorted: "I'm not like him!"

Zhou Yi shook her head and smiled lightly: "Okay, you're not like him, he is indeed a bit clever, you were much more stubborn than him at the time, and ran away without saying a word, after I came out of the examination room, I didn't even I didn't even have time to take a breather, so I and Zhou Song searched for you all over the capital for several days."

Xia Jing said embarrassingly, "You guys still looking for me? Were you tired at that time?"

Zhou Yi said frankly: "Why aren't you tired, but I didn't think too much about it when I was in a hurry to find you. Looking back now, I'm really tired."

Xia Jing was silent for a long while, then softly uttered three words: "I'm sorry."

Zhou Yi teased him a little funny: "Then how are you going to compensate me? Huh?"

Xia Jing knew that he was joking, but because he was really wrong in this matter, he still took it a bit seriously. He thought about it seriously, and then seemed to think of something, he turned his head away and pretended to be calm: "This compensation I owe it first, and I will... I will give it to you in the future."

Zhou Yiyuan didn't really want anything from him, but seeing Xia Jing's reaction, he was really looking forward to what the "compensation" the other party meant, so he said, "Okay, then I'll wait."

When Ah Yao came back and saw Rui Zhu, she was very surprised. Fei pulled Zhou Yi and asked where the child came from. After learning that Xia Jing rescued the child, she didn't say anything at first, but her attitude towards Xia Jing did improve a little later. .

Rui Zhu is a smart kid, with a pitiful background and good looks. He is only one year younger than Ah Yao, and everyone gets along quickly. Ah Yao regards him as a younger brother, and seeing that he has a wound on his wrist, she immediately grabs Liu Shang. Lu was cured.

The relief rice and food arrived soon, and Ah Yao went out at night for several days in a row, and only came back in the morning.

This day, I finally heard some news, and I was discussing with Zhou Yi and Xia Jing.

"... I saw with my own eyes that it was indeed people from several companies who came to transport the rice grain one after another. There is a ledger record of what they did, and it was collected by Qian Zhifu himself. I will go to check on the prefect tonight. government."

"It seems that they are already very skilled at doing these things."

"Ayao, be careful, it's okay if you can't get it, safety comes first."

"Don't worry sir, I understand."

After this trip, when she came back the next day, besides bringing back the news that the study in Qian Zhifu's mansion was heavily guarded, there was another matter related to Ruizhu, so she also paid attention to it.

It turned out that Qian Zhifu had a group of wives and concubines in his fifties, but the mansion even opened up a yard to raise several teenagers who were about the same age as Rui Zhu, but from her point of view, these teenagers seemed to be well-raised, not like It looked like he had been abused.

After Ah Yao left, Zhou Yi asked Xia Jing, "What do you think?"

Xia Jingdao: "According to what Ah Yao said, the ledger is probably hidden in the study of Qian Zhifu."

Zhou Yi smiled and listened: "What else?"

"Are you testing me?" Xia Jing glanced at him angrily, but continued, "Since Zhifu Qian has no preference for young people, it is very likely that he collected these young people to give away."

"Could it be that the person he wants to curry favor with is the one who has been protecting him?"

"It may not be impossible." Xia Jing was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "If we send Ruizhu back and let him be an internal response, is it feasible?"

Zhou Yi disagreed: "Since we have saved him, how can we push him into the fire again? That's not the original intention of us saving him."

Xia Jing hurriedly said: "That's not what I meant. If we send him back, people will definitely watch him and protect him."

Zhou Yi reassured him: "I know, but there is no need to overdo it. If the youngsters Ah Yao said are really what you think, and they were sent to the person who protected him, we will only focus on those youngsters."

Xia Jing thought for a while and said, "That's fine, Ah Yao has been working hard these days, so I'll let Xia Chuan take turns with her."

"Oh, I didn't know, he can also kung fu?"

Xia Jing said with a smile: "Naturally, you also know that I have many enemies on a daily basis, how can I not have a follower who understands kung fu by my side, but tell him not to reveal it unless it is absolutely necessary, and it will play an unexpected role in critical moments."

"Hiding for so many years, why did you tell me?"

"I have no secrets from you now."

Zhou Yi was very grateful for his frankness, but now is not the time to talk about it: "Now we have to find a way to get the ledger."

"To deal with such a person, there is no need to show kindness." Xia Jing narrowed his eyes slightly, showing his sternness, "Just give him a sharp knife to cut the mess!"

"what do you mean?"

"Some time ago, the rice grain collected from various places has been delivered to Shanxi, Anhui, and nearby counties in Hubei, and a lot of my people have also come. I can let them quietly gather nearby, and just wait for those youngsters to send them out and give an order. Then he can control his magistrate's mansion, and there will be nothing at that time!"

"It's once and for all, but we have to prevent him from jumping over the wall in a hurry and destroying the ledger."

"As long as the speed is fast enough, there is no chance for him to react!"

Zhou Yi smiled: "That depends on your ability."

Xia Jing raised his chin: "Just wait and see!"

Once the plan was made, it was implemented very quickly. After hearing Ah Yao's description of the location of the prefect's mansion, Xia Chuan was replaced to follow up that night.

Fortunately, Zhifu Qian did not disappoint them, he did not catch Ruizhu who was running away, and sent out the few teenagers in his hand in the middle of the night five days later. Enter the magistrate's house.

Everything was carried out according to a certain plan without revealing a trace, and the account book was successfully obtained the next morning, and the amount of rice and grain for the disaster relief was clearly recorded.

Zhou Yi flipped through the ledger and said, "Your people are very skilled in doing these things."

Xia Jing ignored what he said, and just said: "Now I just need to wait for Ah Yao to bring back the identity of that person, then I can pass the booklet to the capital." After a pause, he looked down at his increasingly obvious belly, With hidden worries, "As soon as the matter here is over, His Majesty will call you and me back to Beijing. How can I go back to Beijing now? You said earlier that we will have a next destination, so let's talk about it now."

Zhou Yi didn't hold back any more, and said bluntly, "Let's go to Taizhou Prefecture."

Xia Jing immediately understood: "Where is the Southeast Navy?"

"Do you still remember the gangsters you and I met when we returned to Beijing?"

Zhou Yi mentioned it now, combined with the events at that time, Xia Jing tentatively asked: "So... those people are actually from the Southeast Navy?"

"good."

Xia Jing laughed: "I already knew that they were not simple, and you asked me not to pursue them before you returned to Beijing, so, what kind of deal did you reach at that time?"

Zhou Yi didn't answer him directly, but asked another question: "Do you still remember Liu Changdao, the former commander of the Southeast Navy?"

"Of course, he had a close relationship with the Second Prince. I read his book. Later, he was implicated in the Second Prince's case and was dismissed from his post. He should be still squatting in the prison now."

"The newly-appointed Wang Bin, who has won many battles and failed repeatedly, even withdrew his military pay. Those who were not popular just ran away and became rogues. All these things happened because of you. Who do you think they would look for if they didn't look for you?"

Xia Jing suddenly looked suspicious: "Then let's go to Taizhou Mansion for what purpose?"
