Zhu Lan walked past Xu Zhiyuan without even looking at him.

She stopped in front of Zhu Qian, thought for a moment, and decided to ask Mr. Liu about the account book first.

"Jing'er, come and look after him."

Yan Jing nodded, stood in front of Zhu Qian with a stern face, thought for a moment, and said to Qing Dai:

"He'll fight, tie him up first."

Qingdai nodded and went to look for the rope.

Zhu Qian never thought that after all his success, he would end up being looked after by a young kid.

But he had a knife on his neck and his acupuncture points were pressed, so he could only roar at Yan Jing with a ferocious face:

"Little bastard, do you know who I am?!"

Yan Jing said expressionlessly: "Banana."

Zhu Qian: “?”

Yan Jing was not frightened at all. He directed Qingdai and Zhusha to tie Zhu Qian up like a rice dumpling.

Mr. Liu survived the disaster and was so frightened that he almost wet his pants. He collapsed to the ground.

"Who, who are you guys..." He looked at Zhu Lan who was approaching, dumbfounded.

Didn’t Xu Xizi say that these two people were Minister Li’s concubine and child? How could they appear here?

Could this matter have anything to do with them?

"Who I am has nothing to do with you. You just need to know that if I hadn't been here just now, you would be dead now."

Zhu Lan opened her mouth quietly and asked him:

"Just now you mentioned that you have a copy of the account book of Master Xu's bribery. Is this true?"

Master Liu calmed down and admitted, "I just made it up to lie to him in order to save my life!"

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether you made it up or not."

Zhu Lan squatted down, looked at him, and suddenly smiled.

For some reason, Mr. Liu felt that her smile was even more terrifying than Zhu Qian's just now.

"Anyway, I will spread the news that you have hidden the account book, and then escort you back to the capital.

On the way back to Beijing, if the guards slacked off for a moment, took a nap, or had diarrhea, etc.

Do you think you can reach the capital alive?"

Mr. Liu's expression changed immediately.

If the bigwigs in the capital knew that I had evidence of their bribery, they would definitely try every possible means to kill me at all costs!

In order to protect themselves, those people don’t care whether what you say is true or false!

Mr. Liu stared at Zhu Lan in horror, as if he had seen a ghost.

How could this woman come up with such a dirty trick! ?

"Where on earth are you from...?"

Xu Zhiyuan and Zhu Qian, who was wrapped like a dumpling, also looked at Zhu Lan, eager to hear the answer.

At this time, there was a light of fire at the end of the path in front of the ruined temple, and it seemed like many people were rushing over with torches, and there were also sounds of horse riding.

When the group of people came closer, Xu Zhiyuan recognized that they were actually a team from Qingzhou government office.

A team of elite soldiers came forward and lined up on both sides in a well-trained manner.

"Lord Lu, the prefect of Qingzhou, has arrived!"

Xu Zhiyuan and Master Liu looked at each other, both of them were completely stunned.

Maoxian is far away from the government office. Why would the prefect go to these mountains in person?

What on earth is going on!?

Lu Feng rode up on a tall horse and looked solemnly at everyone present.

Then he dismounted, came to Zhu Lan and Yan Jing, bowed and said loudly:

"I, Lu Feng, the prefect of Qingzhou, pay my respects to His Highness the Lord of Zhaoyang and His Excellency the Chief Censor!"

The Lord of the Longevity! ?

The Chief Censor! ???

Not only Xu Zhiyuan and Mr. Liu were completely dumbfounded, but even Zhu Qian was completely stunned.

This woman is actually the one in the rumors...

She won the first place in the imperial examination six times in a row, becoming the first female champion in Daliang, and she became the highest official in the country when she was only a teenager, Zhu Zhongcheng, who was in charge of the Imperial Censorate! ?

I heard that her relationship with the Li family is like fire and water, so she is certainly not the same kind of person as the Xu family.

But she hid her identity and found herself...

Xu Zhiyuan thought of what he had just said to Zhu Qian, and his head felt buzzing.

It's over. It's completely over now.
