How could Zhao Fan...
At this time, the Old Emperor was in critical condition. As one of the princes with the highest possibility of inheriting the throne, Zhao Fan was not staying in the imperial city to fight for power.
In his previous life, Zhao Fan should be attending to patients in the palace, Old Emperor would pass away in three months. The Old Emperor had not been in court for a long time, and the various factions were at a standstill.
What went wrong? Would it allow Zhao Fan to stay away from the imperial city at this critical juncture?
Wen Jiu was dazed for a moment.
”Show me the way, I will ensure that your life is safe!”
Zhao Fan kept his sword and picked her up, then quickly ran past the pile of straw and threw her onto the carriage.
Wen Jiu crashed into the carriage, feeling dizzy and disoriented, following that, he saw Zhao Fan cut off the ropes, and drove the horse carriage flying on the road.
”Young Madame!” Hua Mei chased after him at flying speed.
The carriage driver and Mrs. Wen were startled by the sound and ran out, in a moment they were all panicking, but a group of merchants just went by, and now there was not even a single passerby.
Zhao Fan said coldly.
”How dare you report to the government?! Just wait for her corpse to be collected!”
Xie's Mansion.
Tu Mei and the horse carriage entered the sect in a hurry. In front of the Old Madame Xie and his men, they told them about how they were kidnapped.
Second Madame Xie was so angry that she could not even stand, and scolded: ”I knew this Wen Family's young lady was worried! It's only been a few days since I came to the Palace, and I've already caused so much trouble! ” Then, he instructed the attendant's maidservants, ”Whoever dares to divulge even the tiniest bit of information in front of the Fifth Young Master will be sold!”
No one dared to make a sound.
Tu Mei quickly knelt in front of Old Madame Xie, ”Madame! Please save Fifth Young Madame! That evil person is covered in blood, he must be a vicious and merciless person! ”
Second Madame Xie was so angry by the servant that his heart ached: ”What are you howling for! If you have the time, go and report to the authorities! ”
”We can't report it!” Hua Mei cried and said, ”The scoundrel said that if we dare to report to the government, we will …” I'm taking Fifth Young Madame's life! ”
Xie's Mansion was a large family located in the region of Changping County. Usually, everyone would feel a bit more reverent towards them, and even the local officials would have to give them some face.
Second Madame Xie had not encountered such a troublesome matter in the past few decades, so she could not let go of her scolding in front of the old mistress. If you really believe me, can you just bring him along and let him go? ”
Even if he didn't die at the hands of these thugs, how could he maintain his innocence?
Everyone was calculating in their hearts.
Old Madame Xie said in a deep voice: ”Go and invite Eldest Young Master over.”
