Chapter 187: You are the daughter of a city lord, yet you enter a brothel without permission
"Could it be...could it be that there are some gods or ghosts..."
Before he could finish his words, the city lord punched him again! Jiang Dao's nose was even crooked.
"You're blaming gods and ghosts for your own incompetence?! It needs to be shipped out in three days. If you can't find it, I'll have you beheaded!"
Jiang Zhen's face suddenly turned pale!
Anyang then lazily tried to persuade him: "Oh, father, there is no place to hide so many porcelains even if they were stolen. Tunan City is your territory. Let's block the city gates and search one by one. I don't believe it..."
Before she could finish her words, she was slapped hard in the face by the city lord!
"How dare you say such things! You are the daughter of a city lord, yet you secretly enter a brothel and sell women yourself. Aren't you ashamed?!"
This slap knocked Anyang unconscious. She felt wronged and dared not resist. She could only transfer her father's anger to Jiang Dao and pretend to speak for him.
"Daolang didn't intentionally lose those goods. Father, don't worry. Daolang will definitely find a way, right?"
God knows what other solution Jiang Dao has, but even if there is no solution, he has to find a way.
He can't let anyone carry his head around with him!
Thinking of this, he kowtowed quickly, his head skinned: "Yes, yes, father-in-law, I have a way, I have a way!"
"If those porcelains can't be found, I can still find other gifts in exchange!"
"Other gifts? Those porcelains were personally inspected by the prince. Even if you gave up your entire fortune, it wouldn't be worth enough! You still want..."
"What if...what if we donate a gold mine to the prince?" Upon hearing this, the city lord and Anyang looked over in shock.
"What did you say? Gold mine?"
"Father-in-law, there is someone who knows the whereabouts of this gold mine. If I can find out, the prince will definitely not care about these mere gifts of porcelain."
"As the city lord, you certainly can't open a mine without the court's permission. Furthermore, with the two princes so close, we can't risk our lives. But if the gold mine is under the protection of the princes, we can still make some profit. What do you think, father-in-law?"
The city lord's expression changed slightly, but he didn't know that several flying butterflies were circling above their heads at this moment.
At this time, outside Tuji Mansion, many people were watching and talking about it.
"It is said that Tuji Mansion was robbed yesterday. Many valuables were stolen, and it even alarmed the city lord!"
"Didn't you hear me just now? The city lord is furious. It's not easy to be the city lord's son-in-law."
"Who do you think was this thief who dared to come to Tuji's house? And was he able to steal successfully? It really opened my eyes!"
Little did they know that Ruan Mian and Xie Huaian were standing behind them. At this moment, the steward of the mansion also came out to chase them away, and everyone was dispersed.
Seeing Xie Huaian looking at him, Ruan Mian asked calmly, "Sir, why are you looking at me like that?"
Xie Huaian didn't say anything, but all those questions were written on his face.
Ruan Mian chuckled softly, "Sir, do you think that the theft in their mansion is related to me?"
"I don't have such great abilities. Perhaps they deserve retribution for their evil deeds! But our trip today wasn't in vain. Although we still haven't found Jiang Zhen's whereabouts, we did learn some things about Jiang Dao."
Today they ran around collecting information about Jiang Dao and Jiang Zhen.
But when they returned to the inn, they found that the mute girl was nowhere to be seen.
After asking, we learned that she was taken away by force.
Ruan Mian frowned, his eyes growing colder. “It was probably someone from Tuji’s house who took him away.”
Seeing her so calm, Xie Huaian couldn't help but say: "In that case, I will go to the mansion again tonight..."
"No need, sir. I'll go."
Xie Huaian frowned and was about to speak, but Ruan Mian lowered his voice.
"The person I arranged just now came to give me the news. Anyang sent someone to the clinic to ask for a doctor. When the time comes, I will replace the prince with a cat and enter the mansion. You, my lord, can meet me in secret."
Once you get close to Anyang, there are many ways to make her speak.
They immediately went to the clinic, and while the doctor was out, they used a little trick to replace the prince with a cat. They disguised themselves as a handsome man and carried the medicine box into Tuji Mansion in place of the doctor.
The servant at the side door saw his medicine box and invited him into the mansion without thinking.
When she arrived at the courtyard, Xie Huaian, who was following behind her, was stopped outside and waited. Ruan Mian glanced at him and went into the room alone.
At first glance, he saw a thin woman lying on the bed.
Ruan Mian was about to speak when the door was closed by the maid.
She bowed politely and greeted him in a low voice, "Madam Anyang."
The woman on the bed turned sideways, supporting her chin with her slender arm, and saw that Ruan Mian was a strange face, and asked in confusion.
"How come I've never seen this young man before? Is he Doctor Lin's new student?"
Ruan Mian had inquired and found out that Doctor Lin was the doctor in charge of the clinic.
It is said that several doctors in that clinic were his students.
But Ruan Mian didn't know the details, so she didn't say much and answered with silence and a smile.
He took the medicine box, moved the screen, and thought of using the silk thread to diagnose the patient's pulse remotely.
As a result, after a series of operations, Anyang laughed coquettishly, kicked the screen open, pulled the silk thread, and pulled Ruan Mian to her front.
She looked at Ruan Mian's face with charming eyes and deep meaning.
"My dear, you are so handsome. Doctor Lin's taste is getting better and better."
As she spoke, she took Ruan Mian's shoulders and leaned close to her ear, saying coquettishly, "In that case, my dear, please treat me well today. I've been in such a state of panic for too long."
Those seductive eyes were full of hints, and even her slender hands skillfully undid Ruan Mian's clothes!
Ruan Mian's eyebrows moved, and when her hand was about to touch his chest, he suddenly grabbed her wrist and hugged the woman in his arms.
Anyang muttered something and spoke coquettishly, but the next moment she was knocked unconscious by Ruan Mian's palm and lost consciousness instantly.
Just fell straight onto the bed.
Ruan Mian stood up with a chill all over his body and shivered!
This is not treating a disease at all, this is clearly having an affair with someone, and he doesn't care whether he knows the other person or not. Doctor Lin is like a brothel owner.
Just as he was thinking, a strange fragrance lingered in his nose, and Ruan Mian gradually felt uncomfortable.
And the smell is getting stronger and stronger.
Looking in the direction of the fragrance, I saw a lit incense burner emitting green smoke.
Her body felt a little hot and her bones began to feel numb.
What is this?! Ruan Mian realized something was wrong and turned around immediately, but her legs suddenly gave way. Fortunately, she was quick-witted and grabbed a nearby pillar to prevent herself from falling.
Without caring about anything else, she put on the jade bracelet, entered the space, and drank a sip of the spiritual spring water first.
If you are poisoned, the spiritual spring water will have some healing effect.
