Chapter 86: Telepathy, Blockage

Chu Jue roughly understood the ins and outs of today's case.

The Zhang family girl was abducted by human traffickers and sold to Chunyue Pavilion.

Chunyue Pavilion forced her to entertain guests, but the Zhang girl refused to comply and was beaten to death.

Since Chunyue Pavilion had already bought her, she should be released without charge...

Chu Jue felt a little aggrieved, but he could only ask in a businesslike manner with a cold face:

"What does Wang Gui look like? Where does he live?"

"He lives in Qili Lane..." The old procuress was obviously a familiar customer of Wang Gui, and she described his appearance, stature, and residence in detail.

Chu Jue stood up and said to his subordinates, "Let's go and catch him!"

"Master Chu, when can you let us go back? We still have business to do. None of this has anything to do with us." The madam urged impatiently.

"You murderer! Murderer... You killed my daughter!" When Mrs. Zhang heard that she was going to be released, she rushed up to her again in anger and fought with her desperately.

"Why are you still hitting people? Someone come quickly... She is roaring in the court, Lord Chu should hold her accountable, right?" The madam hid in panic and screamed.

Chu Jue glanced at her coldly, "Zhang lost her beloved daughter, and it was understandable that she acted impulsively. I forgive her."

"She hit me...I'm going to sue her for assault! She hit me, she should go to jail!" the madam yelled.

Chu Jue simply ignored her words and said, "Come here, take the people from Chunyue Pavilion down."

We really can’t let Zhang hurt the madam.

Otherwise, if she went to another government office to file a complaint, it would be this poor mother who would end up in jail.

The captain stopped Zhang, and the procuress dodged in time and was not injured.

Jiang Rong watched this scene quietly, his eyes cold and silent.

Chu Jue personally led the team to capture Wang Gui.

Jiang Rong and others also left Mingxinsi.

"Jingzhe, I leave it to you." Jiang Rong looked at Jingzhe who was accompanying him.

Jingzhe took the order and flew away.

Jiang Rong, Xie Ruojiao and Xiao Nanxing boarded the carriage back home.

"I'm so angry, so angry. Sister-in-law, did you see that? This old procuress is so arrogant. She beat someone's daughter to death, but she's still so arrogant and wants Zhang to punish her! She's going too far, really too far!" Xie Ruo clenched her beautiful fists, wishing she could rush up and punch the old procuress twice.

Xiao Nanxing smiled bitterly, "Indeed. She thinks this case can't do anything to her... Fortunately, our Crown Prince's Consort had a plan in advance, otherwise, Mingxin Division would have released them all by tomorrow at the latest."

"Will Jingzhe be able to make it in time?" Xie Ruojiao's eyes were full of worry.

Jiang Rong said, "The captain of the Mingxin Division rode his horse to Qili Lane on the outskirts of the city, and he had to bypass the downtown area. Jingzhe, on the other hand, has light skills and can climb over walls and tiles. His route is shorter than theirs, so he should be able to reach Wang Gui's home before them."

"But this person may not be at home right now, maybe he is nearby... The Mingxin Division has many people, so they will definitely find someone faster than Jingzhe. So, for the sake of safety, let's go and stop him..."

"How to stop it?" Xie Ruojiao asked puzzledly.

Jiang Rong closed her eyes, and the streets of the capital appeared in her mind one by one. Soon, she roughly guessed Chu Jue's travel route...

Calculating the time it takes to ride a horse, we should be almost at... Linhe Street.

"Let's go to the three-way intersection of Linhe Street." Jiang Rong said.

…

Chu Jue led a group of Mingxin Division captains and rode their horses at a rapid pace.

He deliberately chose a remote section of the road with few people...

Otherwise, riding a horse in a busy city may easily hurt innocent people.

Walk to the riverside street which has always been deserted.

Three-way intersection.

Suddenly, a speeding carriage rushed out from the left fork.

Chu Jue was nearly hit head-on, and hurriedly pulled the reins to stop the horse, but he also fell off the horse.

Fortunately, he had a good foundation in martial arts, and he turned over and only sprained his ankle.

Before he could come to his senses, he saw a carriage coming straight towards him at the fork in the road on the right...

If he was still on the horse, he could have just turned over and jumped away...

But he had just fallen off his horse and injured his foot, so he had no time to gather strength to move.

Critical moment.

Seeing that the horse's hoof was about to step on my face...

The reins were pulled hard by someone in the carriage, and the carriage veered off course, passing by Chu Jue.

Chu Jue was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"That was a close call!" Xiao Nanxing was terrified.

The Crown Prince's Consort calculated the distance accurately and rushed out at the right time, giving Chu Jue enough time to dodge...

But I didn't expect there was a carriage on the other side...

The two carriages appeared at the same time. Chu Jue dodged one side and didn't have time to dodge the other side...

The carriage on the opposite street passed Chu Jue and stopped next to Jiang Rong and his group's carriage.

"Isn't this our carriage?" Xie Ruojiao stuck her head out and saw that the carriage was exactly the same as theirs, even the word "Xie" hanging under the eaves was the same.

This is the regulation of the Northern Palace’s carriages.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted by the attendants, and a young man wearing a gold-studded brocade robe was seen sitting inside. If it wasn't Xie Lingxi, who else could it be?

"Brother, why are you here? What a coincidence!" Xie Ruojiao immediately waved at Xie Lingxi.

Xie Lingxi's eyes fell on Jiang Rong beside her, "Yeah, what a coincidence."

"Husband!" Jiang Rong's eyebrows curved slightly, and she jumped down from the carriage on the stool. "The capital is so big, but we can meet here by chance. We really have a telepathic connection!"

Chu Jue smiled bitterly and said, "You two are so in tune with each other. Can you change the place? You almost knocked me away!"

"Oh, Captain Chu, why are you here? Are you okay?" Xiao Nanxing looked as if he had just seen him clearly and walked up quickly.

"It's okay, I just sprained my ankle. I have official business to attend to, please make way." Chu Jue said.

The two carriages were parked side by side, blocking the road completely.

"Sprained your ankle? Falling off a horse is a big deal. I remember a man fell off a horse, didn't see a doctor, and died in the end..." Xiao Nanxing said enthusiastically, holding his hand:

"I'm a doctor. Let me take your pulse."

"No need, I'm in a hurry to catch someone." Chu Jue said.

Xiao Nanxing said firmly, "No, I have to take a look, lest you have any hidden illness. Otherwise, Lord Chu, if your legs are broken in the future, how can you catch fugitives in the future?"

“It’s not that serious…” Chu Jue hesitated.

"The injury is not serious, but the blood is clogged and needs to be promoted and the blood stasis removed." Xiao Nanxing took his pulse and checked the injury on his ankle:

"If you don't take care of it in time, it will cause big problems in the future! I'll give you three injections and you'll definitely be fine."

If it is not treated in time, it will heal!

Jiang Rong immediately said, "Captain Chu, you were injured because of our frightened horse. This is our responsibility. Please ask Doctor Xiao to check you out..."

Chu Jue heard that it was just three injections and would not waste time, so he nodded and said, "Thank you!"

The next moment, the silver needle in Xiao Nanxing's hand pierced Chu Jue's ankle.

"Ah——" Chu Jue only felt a piercing pain, his eyes turned black, and he fainted on the spot.
