When Zhou Leping saw her this anxious, he asked himself, ”What exactly happened? Did you tell me that I am helping you because of some threat or some other reason? Tell me!”
But Madam Wang kept his mouth shut, other than crying, he just apologized to her. He kneeled on the ground, looking at him, it was as if he wanted to immediately apologize.
If you have grudges against me in your heart, if you want to use this to take revenge on me, then I have nothing to say. But you have to know, Lin Jing is cunning and treacherous, the things he promised you are only to deceive you and you are the reason for it. His goal is me, once you admit it, Zhou Zheng will definitely die, and right now, the only person who can save Zhou Zheng is only me.
The possibility of the Madam Wang resenting her was not high, and she had definitely heard all of his words. She looked at the Madam Wang through the door, and only had a limited amount of time, so she was unable to speak earnestly while talking to him, ”When you saw the Emperor in the imperial hall, you didn't say anything. I believe that you didn't want to help the evil, so you had to consider carefully whether it was black and white.”
The Ministry of Justice Enforcer had already finished interrogating Zhou Zheng and brought his men over, she could not stay any longer, so with a soft sigh, she took a detour and left.
Zhao Deng was waiting for her outside, the two of them got into the carriage and the carriage driver left slowly. Zhao Deng asked anxiously, ”How was it? What did the Madam Wang say? ”
Zhou Leping shook his head, ”Or are you not willing to say anything, what I'm curious about is, what kind of weakness did Lin Jing have from her that she would become like this?”
Zhao Deng also became silent, the two of them looked at each other, and then, Zhou Leping suddenly struck his fist on his palm, and said: ”Xiao Wan!”
”Xiao Wan?” Zhao Deng was confused, ”Who is Xiao Wan?”
”It's the daughter of Madam Wang and Zhou Zheng, I was just thinking that there's something amiss, if both of them were captured, then where did Xiao Wan go? She was only a five-year-old child. She couldn't possibly be alone at home, could she? ”Hurry, turn around and go to Changping Street!”
She had ignored this question from the start and had indeed not thought about it in this regard. After being impatient for two days, she had been thinking about how to deal with Lin Jing.
The horse carriage rushed over to Chang Ping Street and found the home of Madam Wang. As expected, they did not see Xiao Wan, so they asked their neighbors and said that someone had picked him up a few days ago after the imperial court took him away.
There was no need to ask, just one glance was enough to tell that it was Lin Jing's doing. Right now, the most important thing for him to do was to find Xiao Wan, and as long as he could find Xiao Wan, there would be nothing left to threaten the Madam Wang with the injuries Lin Jing had suffered.
She made a decision in her heart, but she was still under house arrest, so she could only ask Zhao Deng for help.
Zhao Deng agreed without hesitation. Just as the two were about to return to the Duke's Palace, a group of soldiers carrying swords appeared out of nowhere and surrounded them. It seemed that they had been lying in ambush for a long time, preventing them from entering the alley.
Zhou Leping recognized the clothes these people were wearing. They were people from the Minister of War, so it was too late to say anything. Zhao Deng stood in front of her and bellowed, ”How dare you! What kind of dog or cat dares block my path?”
Minister of War pushed through the crowd and came in, smiling at Zhao Deng as he cupped his hands, ”Your highness, this official has ordered some men to arrest the suspect, I do not know if it was Your highness who came, I hope Your highness will forgive me!”
”You know it is This King, so why aren't you stepping aside!?” This King still has something to take care of. I don't have time to waste here with you, get your people to get out of the way! ”
