Chapter 1568 Making the Act Complete
However, to confirm, Hao Dingshan decided to go to Liufang Lane to verify it again.
So, without waiting for Zhao Xi and Xia Yan to come out, Hao Dingshan and his companion headed straight for Liufang Lane.
When they reached the alley entrance, they indeed saw a horse parked in front of the Meng family's house. The horse was clearly not from an ordinary family, indicating that the Meng family had guests visiting.
Hao Dingshan did not rush forward, but stayed nearby to keep watch.
Not long after, Zhao Xixia and Yan rushed back. After they entered the house, Hao Dingshan pretended to be passing by and slowly approached the Meng family.
It's just that this place isn't as convenient as the clinic, so it's still too difficult to hear what's being said inside.
Just as Hao Dingshan was frowning in thought, a loud, sharp shout suddenly came from inside, "...They're gone, then go after them! Don't you understand...?"
The rest of the sentence was clearly suppressed. The person who spoke must be someone from the government office, right?
After that, Hao Dingshan couldn't hear a single word.
He was somewhat anxious, but there was nothing he could do. The more this was the case, the more he needed to remain calm.
Fortunately, not long after, the door to the Meng family's house was opened, and a man with a cold face and an unfriendly expression came out.
Hao Dingshan squinted. "That person does seem to be someone close to Lord Fei."
Prefect Fei used to be in the capital, and Hao Dingshan recognized some of the people he often brought with him.
After leaving the house, the man untied the horse that was tied to the door and led it out of the alley.
When Hao Dingshan saw him coming, he quickly lowered his head, but as the man passed by, he could still feel the intense anger emanating from him.
It seems the other party did not get the result they wanted here.
After everyone left, Hao Dingshan quietly glanced towards the Meng family's house. Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were standing at the door, their expressions somewhat solemn and worried.
After a while, Meng Yunzheng patted Zhao Xi on the shoulder, and the two turned and went back into the house.
The people around Hao Dingshan asked him, "What do we do now?"
"Go and find out if Doctor Zhao has really left Jiangyuan County. As for me," he paused, narrowing his eyes, "I'll go to the prefectural city to check the situation. If it's true, we'll immediately ride back to the capital. This time, we might be able to achieve great merit."
"Okay." The other party became somewhat excited. "I'll go and inquire right away."
The two parted ways, and Hao Dingshan soon headed to the prefectural city.
Meanwhile, Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were already drinking tea in the room, their tense expressions completely gone.
"Do you think our plan can succeed?"
Meng Yunzheng said, "This concerns the Emperor. Even if Hao Dingshan has some doubts, he will definitely return to the capital to report. If it is true, given his personality, he will naturally not want to let go of such a great achievement."
"Next, we'll see what happens in the capital."
The situation in the capital is definitely much more serious than here. The emperor has to face the second and third princes as well as the Xiao family. Hopefully, there won't be any mishaps.
If all goes well, this time we might really be able to wipe them all out.
"What do we need to do now?" Zhao Xi asked.
Meng Yunzheng shook his head. "There's nothing else to do. To make it more realistic, Lord Fei will probably send someone to the southwest to 'search' for Doctor Zhao. Isn't Ayu's shop opening tomorrow? I'll go to the prefectural city to find her and tell her about the news from the capital so she won't worry. I'll leave things at home to you."
