Chapter 137: Common Goals



"Husband," Shen Zhaozhao said innocently, "My second brother asked me to tell you that small fish and shrimp are not important, just let them go."

Zhan Nanxing was a little surprised.

It was Shen Zhaozhao who asked him to stay here and arrest people, but it was his second brother who asked him to release them.

What is going on?

"Is this the son of the county magistrate?" Shen Zhaozhao looked at Zhang Wenzhu with a smile.

Zhang Wenzhu's heart trembled.

This was the message that Uncle Six asked the little girl to convey to confirm his identity.

The arrow was still pointed at him.

Moreover, he knew clearly that his sixth uncle was Zhan Beichen.

"You are the one below."

Zhang Wenzhu admitted it readily.

"Young Master, you can leave now," Shen Zhaozhao said.

Zhang Wenzhu glanced at Zhan Nanxing, and when he saw that he had obeyed, he withdrew the arrow in his hand and quickly ran out of the alley in two steps.

In a flash.

Gone.

"Come, step on the ladder with your other foot first." Seeing that everyone had left, Shen Zhaozhao moved a tattered mat from the corner and brought the ladder over.

Zhan Nanxing was thinking about something and his legs and feet were not convenient.

One foot landed on the ladder, and the other foot was not paying attention and exerted pressure.

"hiss--"

He took a breath.

The sharp pain in his knee woke him up instantly, but it was too late, and he lost his balance and fell downwards.

“Be careful!”

Shen Zhaozhao hurriedly reached out to take the person.

How could her body, as a lady, bear the weight of him?

In a flash of lightning, Zhan Nanxing turned over and placed himself underneath.

Shen Zhaozhao felt dizzy and when he came to his senses, he found himself lying on top of Zhan Nanxing.

She pressed her hands to his chest.

Hard.

She couldn't help it and pressed it twice more.

“Zhao Zhao…”

Zhan Nanxing was lying on the ground, with a storm in his peach blossom eyes, and his voice was slightly hoarse, "Are you hurt from the fall?"

Shen Zhaozhao shook his head.

In the dim alley, she looked at the man she was pressing down on, and her eyes involuntarily fell on his slightly parted lips.

Zhan Nanxing's lips are neither thin nor thick.

Bright red, looks plump.

Want to try...

"Zhao Zhao," Zhan Nanxing's eyes darkened a lot. If the conditions were right, he would definitely not make a sound to disturb her.

He liked her looking at him like this.

He looked like he was bewitched.

Only he can see her like this.

"Feng Yong and the others are here." Zhan Nanxing tried hard to suppress the love in his heart and reminded them.

Shen Zhaozhao suddenly came back to his senses and found that he was still lying on Zhan Nanxing.

When they turned around, they saw Brother Feng Yong and the other two standing in front of them with their backs to each other and their eyes covered.

"Well……"

Shen Zhaozhao quickly got up and reached out to support Zhan Nanxing, "How are you?"

"You didn't get crushed by me, did you?"

Zhan Nanxing smiled, "Nothing."

"Ahem," Chen Laqi looked around and said, "Third Young Master, aren't there any people blocking your way here?"

"If we had known, we would have stayed in the post station to help."

Zhan Nanxing's eyes flickered as he looked at Shen Zhaozhao.

Shen Zhaozhao looked up at the sky, pretending to be stupid.

Oh.

Zhan Nanxing chuckled, "No, how is the post station?"

Shen Zhaozhao immediately responded: “Very good, second brother’s acting was excellent and scared the county governor away.”

Feng Yong exclaimed, "Wow!"

"It's amazing, the second young master actually has this kind of singing skill."

Zhan Nanxing took advantage of Shen Zhaozhao's hand reaching out to pull him just now, and that hand did not let go. He squeezed it gently and lowered his head.

"Isn't it Zhao Zhao's idea that's good?"

Shen Zhaozhao suddenly raised his eyes, and his gaze fell into those peach blossom eyes, which were like a clear spring, clear but bottomless.

Feng Yong reacted immediately: "Yes, yes, in the end, it is the Third Young Master's wife who has the best idea."

After saying that, he poked Chen Laqi with his elbow.

Chen Laqi immediately agreed:

"Yeah, how did the Third Young Master's wife come up with this idea? She actually managed to scare the guy away without any bloodshed."

"Okay, stop flattering me," Shen Zhaozhao's old face turned red after being flattered by them, and he glared at Zhan Nanxing with shyness and resentment.

So what?

It's not enough for him to coax her, he has to drag his subordinates into making her happy?

The smile on Zhan Nanxing's lips never disappeared.

Feng Yong and the others wanted to help him, but he didn't need to because the road was short. He held Shen Zhaozhao with one hand and supported the wall with the other. Although his steps were staggering, he was able to walk back to the post station.

As soon as he entered the post station, he was surrounded by the Zhan family.

"Zhao Zhao, we've discussed it and decided to scare the man away. Who knows, the county magistrate might react and strike back again." Old Madam Zhan's eyes were filled with worry.

These three granddaughters-in-law are all good, each with her own personality and abilities.

She still liked Shen Zhaozhao the most, so naturally she couldn't watch her being thrown into prison.

"This is what our leader meant," Zhao San came over and said, "We must leave Youyun County as soon as possible. Not to mention that we have offended the county governor, even if we delay for a few more days, we can't get to Mobei before entering."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, sir." Jiang Hu, a seriously injured patient, had spoken, and Shen Zhaozhao said without hesitation, "Then we'll set off tomorrow."

"Master Jiang Hu is lying on the donkey cart that my family just bought to recover from his injuries."

Shen Zhaozhao said, pulling Zhao 깇san aside, "Please keep the news that our second brother is still alive a secret, everyone."

Zhao Jisan is a person who knows the importance of things, and he has long been of the same mind as the Zhan family.

"Don't worry, Miss Shen. After the master knew about this, he detained several brothers in their rooms and didn't let them come out. He didn't see the second son of the Zhan family at all."

"It's better to avoid too many people and some brothers being unable to control their mouths."

Shen Zhaozhao curved his eyebrows and said, "Thank you."

Zhao Jisan was polite again before going upstairs.

After dealing with the aftermath, Shen Zhaozhao entered the space again, opened the V50APP, and found his second brother for a private chat.

The urgent problem has been solved, but we still need to find out the background of the maid who committed suicide.

They are leaving tomorrow, so it would be best to get this matter settled tonight.

Sixth Uncle: [Second brother, I want to ask you something. Are all the maids around the county magistrate's wife here? ]

Second brother: [? ]

【What do you want to know about this?】

Shen Zhaozhao licked his back groove. This second brother is really sensitive...

If it was the fourth or fifth brother, I wouldn’t ask any more questions.

One of them picks up a knife and starts chopping people, and the other just keeps making noises.

The grudge between the Zhan family and the royal family is no secret. Shen Zhaozhao did not hide it from his second brother. He put on Zhan Beichen's vest and said that he was able to come here because his original body fell into the hands of the people in southern Xinjiang after his death.

Uncle Six: [Now I guess the assassin is the maidservant of the county magistrate’s wife.]

[If your mother is the prince's person, then we should probably keep a certain distance, after all, we have different positions. ]

After a long while, the second brother replied:

【Don’t worry, Uncle Six. 】

[The original mother died a long time ago, and this mother now is my stepmother. ]

Shen Zhaozhao: …

Second Brother: [I just checked with the housekeeper.]

[In the past few days, the maidservant beside my stepmother has indeed disappeared. ]

Shen Zhaozhao looked at the screen and thought.

The second brother on the other side of the screen did not continue to send messages.

Shen Zhaozhao thought for a while, and when he wanted to type, he saw that his second brother had sent a message first:

[Sixth Uncle, let's join forces. ]

[It is not good for me if my stepmother is alive. We have the same goal. 】
