Bei Yutang didn't beat around the bush with him, "Do you know Li Guixiang?"
Wang Zihang's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. If you didn't look closely, it would be hard to notice.
It seems they didn't find the wrong person, that person is him.
He is Li Guixiang's husband and Wang Tiezhu's father.
"I don't know him." Wang Zihang denied it flatly.
"You're lying. You clearly know her," Bei Yutang shouted. "Wang Zihang, you're just a scholar. You're surrounded by beautiful wives and concubines in Kyoto, enjoying wealth and luxury, yet you've abandoned your parents, who raised you with so much hardship, and even abandoned your wife and children."
"Enough! I don't know what you are talking about. I think you have the wrong person. I don't know the person you are talking about." Wang Zihang said with a cold face.
"Butler, please show the guests out." Wang Zihang shouted directly to the outside.
Bei Yutang blocked his way and asked, "Where did you see Guixiang and Xiao Tiezhu go?"
Bei Yutang stared at him sharply. Wang Zihang was stunned and frowned slightly. "I don't know what you are talking about."
After saying that, he just turned around and left without caring about Hua Ziyun's presence.
When the butler heard the noise and came in, he saw the son-in-law leaving angrily. He smiled awkwardly at the people in the hall and said, "Please forgive me, Eighth Prince. The master has been very angry these past few days."
Hua Ziyun waved his hand and said, "Tell the princess that I'm leaving now and will visit you another day."
"Yes, yes, yes."
The butler saw them off all the way to the door, watched them leave, then turned around and went back to close the door.
After walking for a while, Bei Yutang turned back and looked at the closed gate of the county government with deep thought in his eyes.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Xiao Moer asked.
Hua Ziyun followed him and looked at her with confusion.
Bei Yutang turned her head to look at Hua Ziyun, "Send someone to find out who was guarding the gate yesterday. Find that person, I want to see him."
Hua Ziyun immediately sent someone to investigate.
Bei Yutang can only pray that Wang Zihang has some conscience and will let them go.
"What is the relationship between Wang Zihang and Qin Yi?"
Hua Ziyun thought about it and said, "Their relationship is just ordinary. I've never heard of any relationship between them."
Bei Yutang frowned and muttered, "No, there must be a connection. I just tested Wang Zihang and he denied knowing Li Guixiang. Then, when I pressed him, he got angry and chased me away, which shows that he's guilty."
"Guixiang and Xiaotiezhu must have found Wang Zihang. It's very likely that Wang Zihang took them away."
Xiao Moer then added, "Wang Zihang must have heard about us from Aunt Li. To be on the safe side, he had Qin Yi imprison us on trumped-up charges and then set us on fire in the middle of the night. This way, no one would know about Li Guixiang and Xiao Tiezhu. He could then live peacefully as a county husband. Therefore, Wang Zihang and Qin Yi must be related."
"I'll send someone to investigate right away."
Hua Ziyun once again ordered someone to go down and do the work, and finally simply pulled his cousin Chu Yu over with him.
Two servants carried a young man who reeked of alcohol into the house.
"Eighth Prince, this man was the gatekeeper at the county government office yesterday."
Chu Yu frowned, "It smells bad. Let him sober up first."
The people below immediately gave him a bowl of sobering soup.
A quarter of an hour later, the man finally regained his consciousness and looked at the important figures in front of him with a somewhat panicked expression.
