Chapter 184 Catch 1
Chapter 184 Catch 1
Wang Jingshan was heartbroken after hearing the child's words, but that was the truth. Although he didn't want to admit it, he felt a sense of crisis when he saw Zhou Shaokang's elegant appearance.
The prince just said that his chance to go on the expedition will come soon.
Wang Jingshan said, "It's better not to have a girl. It will be inconvenient in the military camp."
Wang Baozhu said, "Dad has many female generals too."
Wang Jingshan said: "Then you should practice hard and when you grow up and have the opportunity, I will let you go."
Wang Baozhu was very happy: "Dad, don't forget it."
Wang Jingshan nodded.
After dinner, Wang Jingshan said to Jin Yuyao, "There's been some progress in the Yuyao case. I'm going to go out and catch that guy now and clear your name."
After saying that, Wang Jingshan walked out.
After meeting Zhou Shaokang and Du Huaian, the three of them came to a dilapidated temple.
Zhou Shaokang and Du Huaian were waiting outside the temple, while Wang Jingshan was behind the Buddha statue inside the temple.
The sky gradually darkened and there was no movement. Wang Jingshan was waiting in the dark, feeling a little anxious.
Now that I think about it, Zhan Feng and Li Feng sometimes followed those people in the dark. Now I think about it, I feel a little sympathetic towards them.
When Wang Jingshan felt that he might not come today, he saw a sneaky man walk in.
The man had shifty eyes and looked like a bad guy.
The man looked around the temple, and soon he saw a man wearing black clothes and a turban covering his face coming in.
The man said, "You are finally here. What do you want to do now?"
The man in black said in a hoarse voice: "Why haven't the rumors died down recently?"
The man said, "It's not my fault. After Doctor Jin received the reward yesterday, the rumors have inexplicably decreased. I don't know what's going on."
The man in black said, "Then you've been spreading rumors these past few days that she's just trying to gain fame, and that the locust plague was fake and she's claiming credit for it."
The man said, "Is this feasible? After all, the imperial edict is there."
"Why not? After all, there are still a lot of stupid people."
The man smiled and said, "I need more money this time, otherwise I won't be able to do anything."
The man in black said: "That's enough, don't be too greedy."
The man said, "That won't do. The imperial edict has arrived recently. Do the people in our area believe rumors or imperial edicts?"
The man in black laughed and said, "Don't you know that spreading rumors well is more effective than killing him directly?"
After saying that, he threw a purse to the man.
As soon as the man caught it, Wang Jingshan attacked the man in black directly. However, the man was very alert and dodged. Wang Jingshan kicked the man to the ground, and not satisfied, he kicked him a few more times.
Seeing that the man couldn't get up for a while, Wang Jingshan went to chase the man in black.
The man in black had already run to the backyard of the temple.
Wang Jingshan chased out and shouted to the door: "Du Huaian, come quickly, one person is in the temple, I will go after the other one."
After saying that, Wang Jingshan started chasing after him.
When Du Huaian and Zhou Shaokang came in, they saw the man in the temple had stood up and wanted to run. Du Huaian went up and kicked him twice. The man immediately begged for mercy: "Don't hit me, it has nothing to do with me. Others paid me to do this. Don't hit me anymore."
Du Huaian was afraid that he would run away, so he took out a rope and tied him up.
Seeing that it was already dark in the room, he took out the lamp he had prepared and lit it.
The two began to wait for Wang Jingshan, but he didn't come no matter how long they waited.
Du Huaian said worriedly, "Why hasn't Wang Jingshan come back yet? Has something happened? Should I go out and take a look?"
Zhou Shaokang said calmly, "It should be fine. I think his martial arts skills should be quite strong. Let's wait and see. You'd better go out. Otherwise, when he comes back, he will have to look for you, and you don't know any martial arts."
Du Huaian had no choice but to nod.
Time passed little by little, and Wang Jingshan finally came back.
Du Huaian saw Wang Jingshan coming back and asked, "Did you catch the guy who ran away?"
Wang Jingshan shook his head and said, "That person is very familiar with this place. I have been looking for it for a long time but can't find it."
After saying that, he walked up to the man lying on the ground wailing and said, "Who is that man?"
The man on the ground couldn't help but tremble twice. "Please spare me, man. I don't know. I've only seen him twice, and he always dresses like this. I don't know if he's a man or a woman."
Du Huaian said: "I don't know whether it's a boy or a girl?"
The man on the ground said, "Every time he comes, he covers himself very tightly. He speaks like a woman, but not quite. I really don't know. I'm just taking money to help people get rid of disasters. Please let me go."
My name is Wang Er, I'm just a small thug on the street. I really don't know anything, so please let me go."
Zhou Shaokang said at this time: "Spar you? That would be too easy for you. I have an idea to spare you. But what if you beat the gong tomorrow and say that you accepted money to frame Doctor Jin?"
Wang Er felt a little embarrassed after hearing this.
Zhou Shaokang said, "Since you are in such a difficult situation, I will not force you. We have no choice but to hand you over to the authorities."
Wang Er's eyes rolled around as he said, "Okay, then if you let me go now, I'll go tomorrow."
Zhou Shaokang knocked Wang Er on the head with a fan and said, "Are you stupid or are we stupid? Don't worry, we will provide you with food for three consecutive days, and you don't have to think about running away. We will have someone following you in secret."
Wang Er's face fell and he could only say, "Okay."
Wang Jingshan said: "Then where should we put him tonight?"
Du Huaian said: "You all know the situation in my family. There is a pregnant woman, and there is no place to stay."
Wang Jingshan thought of his children at home, and both Wang Jingshan and Du Huaian looked at Zhou Shaokang.
Zhou Shaokang said: "Let him go to my house. I have more rooms. I'll have to trouble Wang Jingshan to keep an eye on him today."
Wang Jingshan nodded.
Zhou Shaokang said: "Then let's go now."
Wang Jingshan simply tore a piece of cloth from Wang Er's body to cover his mouth, and then tied him up tightly with a rope.
In this way, Wang Jingshan watched Wang Er return to Zhou Shaokang's home, and Du Huaian returned home halfway.
This was Wang Jingshan's first time here. He looked around the courtyard for a long time but still hadn't reached his destination. Moreover, servants were coming and going in the mansion. Although it was night, the house was brightly lit.
Wang Jingshan said: "Where should we put him?"
Zhou Shaokang said: "Leave it to the firewood room, take them to demolish the house."
Although the housekeeper had some doubts, he did not ask any questions and took Wang Jingshan and Wang Er to the woodshed.
Arriving at the woodshed, Wang Jingshan remembered something and said, "Could you please send someone to watch over me for a while? I want to go home."
The housekeeper said, "Then I have to ask our master."
