"No." Fang Zhiyi shook his head.
Tang Zhilin looked at him puzzledly: "Zhiyi, tell me the truth, have you softened your heart? You still can't let go of Zhu Qingqing? I can also help you keep her..."
Fang Zhiyi looked up at him, his eyes full of helplessness. Doesn't he still have to do the work himself?
Tang Zhilin looked at his brother's shining eyes with a confused look on his face and couldn't help shuddering.
Zhu Qingqing was scolding several subordinates at this time.
"Why did you mess with him? You know he's very important to us, but you still bully him?"
A burly man said with a look of dissatisfaction: "I joined the guild before him, so what's wrong with me ordering him around?"
"That's right, Miss Zhu. Ever since Tang Zhilin became an official, he's been causing trouble for us brothers all day long. We're feeling really upset!"
Zhu Qingqing frowned. "I know you're feeling aggrieved, but bear with it a little longer. Tang Zhilin climbed to the top through fighting, but he doesn't know how to win people over. Over time, they're bound to have internal turmoil, and then Fang Zhiyi will come in handy." She waved her hand and said, "Go apologize to Fang Zhiyi and calm him down first!"
Several people were filled with indignation, but there was nothing they could do. The more they thought about it, the more aggrieved they felt. They had to apologize just for being beaten?
Zhu Qingqing was also prepared. As long as they apologized, she would go to Fang Zhiyi to curry his favor. With the simple-minded boy's mind, there would definitely be no surprises.
But then an accident happened.
"Miss Zhu, something bad has happened!" Someone hurried back to the second floor.
"Why are you so flustered?"
"That kid, that kid is gone!"
"What!" Zhu Qingqing stood up suddenly, "Missing? Go out and look for him quickly!" She was so angry. Her uncle had already said that Fang Zhiyi was an excellent chess piece. How could she let him get away like this?
But at this moment, the sound of dense horse hooves suddenly came from outside.
Zhu Qingqing's face changed drastically. Only the government army could have so many horses.
"Surround the place! Not even a fly can fly out!" someone shouted, and the bright torches illuminated the entire restaurant.
The restaurant was in chaos at this time, and everyone looked panicked.
"What's going on?"
"Let's fight our way out!"
"Who betrayed us?"
"Stop talking nonsense and grab your weapons!"
Fortunately, Zhu Qingqing calmed down after a brief panic: "Calm down! The officers and soldiers have no evidence! They dare not do anything to us!"
The same words were spoken by Gongsun Hu at this time: "My Lords, we have no evidence, and we surrounded the house without any reason. Isn't that too much..."
Tang Zhilin frowned. He hadn't expected Fang Zhiyi to be even more radical than him, ordering his personal guards back overnight. It seemed like this was a bit too hasty...
Fang Zhiyi smiled: "Evidence? I need evidence to arrest someone? Come on, arrest the rebels and get military merit!"
Tang Zhilin was stunned. Gongsun Hu's eyes widened. Was this deputy commander, whose background was unknown, so arrogant? Wasn't he afraid of being reported to the court? After all, there were many people who coveted Tang Zhilin's position.
Tang Zhilin took a deep breath. At this point, he could only trust his brother.
"Break the door open!"
