Plastic Surgeon & Thief Princess - C160
“Just because of this?” Rong Jiu really wanted to give him a good spanking, she sounded like she was cheating, “Dongfang Qisu, did you forget that we were just acting? You don’t even mind if I had Tuan Za from the start, but now, you want to stop the cooperation just because you have a crush on me? ”
“That was at the beginning, but then, why did you …” He was obviously still putting on an act, but why was he pregnant with someone else’s child? “How can he endure this?” Forget it, let’s just pretend This King never said anything. ”
His chest trembled slightly, he turned her back so that Rong Jiu would not discover his abnormality, “You guard him, this king still has things to do.”
She left? Rong Jiu felt that it was too strange, what happened to make him feel so weird?
Now that she had fallen, Rong Jiu naturally had to inform her Hero Pavilion and send the signal. In less than an hour, Elder Chen had rushed over.
“Young master.”
Elder Chen cupped his hands together, “What happened to the pavilion master?”
“A little injured, resting.” Rong Jiu said, “Elder Chen, you have roamed the martial arts world for many years, you have a wide network, can you help me look into a matter?”
“Please speak, Young Lord.”
“Help me investigate what happened at Cheng’s Mansion back then. To be specific, it would be better if it was the kind that no one knows about. ”
The Cheng’s Mansion had already been plagiarized for many years, and there was still someone guarding it, waiting for the later generation to walk right into their trap.
“Yes.” “Young Lord, please wait.”
Elder Chen had roamed the Jianghu for many years, and had dealings with the officials in the imperial court, so it was much easier to investigate. In less than a day, Elder Chen sent Rong Jiu some news.
At that time, Master Cheng’s Mansion was just a small official and did not even have the authority to meet the emperor. However, who would have known that such a small official would be able to meet the great general at that time?
Elder Chen had investigated further, and only after some investigation did he come to the conclusion that Master Cheng had coincidentally saved the great general by chance and that it was thanks to the great general’s kindness.
When the Great General returned to the capital, he should have received a reward, but before he could even enter the palace, he was accused by the Ninng Family sect of betraying the nation, and even laid out some evidence. The evidence was conclusive, and before the Great General could even defend himself, he had already become a spirit of death, he heard that the people in the Ning Residence were looking for something, but were unable to find it, and many of those who had good relations with the Great General were implicated.
These things were unspeakable secrets in the eyes of many officials. If Elder Chen had not interacted with them, they would not have said it out loud.
However, they did not know what exactly they were looking for. All they knew was that not long after, Cheng’s Mansion were all stolen because of corruption.
After hearing Elder Chen’s words, Rong Jiu was shocked to the point that she couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time. Ninng Family, Ninng Family again!
Previously, the hawker outside the Dust Smoke Restaurant had said that there was a lot of gold and silver in the Cheng’s Mansion and that thieves would be left corpses on the streets if they went there.
Does that mean there really is something they want in the Cheng’s Mansion, and they haven’t been able to find it for so many years? So they had always occupied the Cheng’s Mansion, and no one was allowed to casually enter?
Besides, if those people claimed that the Cheng Family’s descendants were dead, then it meant that the Cheng Family was still alive?
Then, Yu Niang could be a descendant of the Cheng Family?
“Do you know who were there before Cheng’s Mansion?” Rong Jiu asked.
“Other than Lord Cheng and his wife, there are also a pair of daughters. The eldest daughter is seven years old, while the youngest daughter is five years old.”
“So it’s like that.”
Even at such a young age, it was unknown if he would have survived this calamity.
“So, what exactly is that treasure?” Rong Jiu meditated, while Elder Chen shook his head to show that he did not know either.
Then, just as Rong Jiu wanted to say something, she saw Elder Chen staring at the door. Rong Jiu turned to look and was slightly startled, only to see Dongfang Qisu standing there with a gloomy face.
“Elder Chen, you may leave.” Rong Jiu said.
“Alright.”
After Clan Elder Chen left, Rong Jiu took a deep breath, “When did you come?”
Dongfang Qisu walked in, “Why are you investigating this?”
“Useful.” Rong Jiu felt that he knew something, “Do you know their goal there, what they want to get?”
“So what if I know? So what if I don’t?” If he did not know, he would not have allowed others to observe his Cheng’s Mansion for so many years.
She had been standing outside for a long time, and did not expect that Rong Jiu would actually investigate this matter. No wonder Yu Niang had come flying, and she had come when they failed.
“If you knew, would you tell me?”
“On what basis?”
Rong Jiu stuttered, Dongfang Qisu was really too unreasonable.
“Since we are in a cooperative relationship, this matter is very important to me. If you know about it, can you?” Rong Jiu thought that what she said was too petty and petty. Just as she was about to change the tone to speak again, Dongfang Qisu asked, “How important is it? You are from the Cheng’s Mansion? ”
“Even if it isn’t impossible to know? I’m investigating for someone else, and this is related to her background! ” Rong Jiu anxiously said as her pupils shrunk and he grabbed her shoulders. She asked in anticipation, “Who?”
“You … Why are you so excited? ” Rong Jiu broke free from his restraints, “You should know a lot of things, can’t you tell me?”
“Didn’t you already know a lot just now?” It was just that there were a lot of things contained within them, it was just that Dongfang Qisu could not tell anyone else. For example, the Congealing Hall was looking for the Little Tiger Tally that the Great General had brought with him previously, although it could not transfer orders to the Three Armies, the soldiers in the army would still obey the military order if they saw the Tiger Tally.
As for him, at the age of ten, he was unable to save the great general. All he knew was that this secret was for him to rush to the Cheng’s Mansion to save the person, but he was only able to save the eldest daughter of the Cheng Family. His youngest daughter had disappeared without a trace, and all these years, he had been searching for the young daughter of the Cheng Family.
“I want to know more! “For example, why did the Cheng Family take bribes, why were their families robbed, and what treasures were they hiding?” More importantly, if he knew the reason, he would seek justice for Yu Niang.
“Then let me tell you, the reason why the Cheng family didn’t take bribes and got their entire family wiped out was because the Ning family wanted to monopolize the family’s power. They didn’t have any treasures.” Dongfang Qisu said, “As for the person you wish to know about, who is he?”
“She …” Rong Jiu gently bit her lip, “Forget it.” It might not be good for Yu Niang to know where she is, “Why are those people still guarding Cheng’s Mansion, what do they want to do.”
“He just wanted to kill them all. There are survivors from the Cheng family. I’m afraid they might go back and seek evidence for revenge.”
Once Dongfang Qisu said this, Rong Jiu thought of Yu Niang again, so, she definitely could not let Yu Niang expose her identity.
She clenched her fists, a flash of ferocity in her eyes.
“Let’s set off for the capital tomorrow. Don’t think about revenge, the power behind the Ning Family is so great that we can’t even imagine it. We should start moving, and not alert them.” Therefore, he had sent people to guard near the Cheng’s Mansion to prevent the Cheng Family descendents from being eliminated by those people.
Rong Jiu looked at Dongfang Qisu in puzzlement, and in the end, didn’t say anything.
