Chapter 123 Chapter 123 Evidence of the Kang Family’s Crime
The manager looked at Yu Li in confusion, and for a moment he couldn't understand why the matter had to do with the Kang family.
This was said incoherently, and he really had no idea what she meant by "might cause trouble for Young Master Xuan", and what kind of trouble could be that even the General's Mansion could not handle.
As the heir to the General's Mansion, not many people in Qing'an Prefecture dare to offend Young Master Xuan, and there is nothing he cannot handle.
Even if it is the Kang family, the Kang family has to give some face to their young general. After all, the Kang family is only the maternal family of the Third Prince, not the Third Prince himself.
So he didn't think that Yu Li could do anything to cause trouble for Young Master Xuan.
At this time, Yu Li asked: "Master Xuan should still be looking for evidence of the Kang family's crimes, right?"
The manager nodded subconsciously, then realized something was wrong and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
In the past few months, Young Master Xuan has indeed been sending people to secretly search for evidence of the Kang family's crimes.
This matter was handled personally by Young Master Xuan. Although he was Young Master Xuan's confidant, he only knew a little bit and didn't know more.
But he didn't expect that this Madam Fu also knew it.
Yu Li asked again: "I wonder how his investigation went?"
The steward hesitated for a moment, thinking of what Master Xuan had said, and said, "Although we have found some, it is not enough to cause any serious damage to the Kang family." He sighed, "The Kang family is really cunning. They hid the evidence too well. It may be hidden in a place that no one knows."
Yu Li asked: "Isn't there any in the Kang family's house?"
People are used to hiding important things in their own territory, thinking that it is safest under their noses.
The capital city is the Kang family's territory. The Kang family has great influence here. If the Kang family wants to hide something, they should hide it in their own house.
The steward was somewhat helpless when he heard this. "Madam Fu, the Kang family is the maternal family of the Third Prince, and they have produced several imperial concubines. How can anyone just break into their home and investigate? Moreover, the Kang family is heavily guarded, and it is not easy to sneak in..."
Having said that, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Yu Li said: "So, only the Kang family's house has not been explored, right?"
The steward nodded.
Seeing that Yu Li was thoughtful, the manager didn't think much about it until he heard her request to send someone to the villa in Changpu Lane to pick up the two injured girls. Then he finally remembered why this place sounded so familiar.
The villa of the Seventh Master of the Kang family is right there!
The steward looked at her in horror. How could she be related to Mr. Kang Qiye's villa?
At this moment, he seemed to understand what she meant by what she had just said.
Yu Li explained: "Today when I went to the restaurant in the west of the city to eat, I met the Seventh Master of the Kang family. He sent people to follow me and even had me abducted to another courtyard..."
When she saw Mr. Kang Qi in the villa, she finally realized that the man in the restaurant box who looked scoundrelly and looked at her with uncomfortable eyes was Mr. Kang Qi. It was probably at that time that he had targeted her.
Hearing this, Fu Wenxiao's face instantly turned extremely cold, and his eyes were particularly cold.
The manager's expression changed drastically, he was shocked and angry, and asked quickly: "Are you okay?"
Fu Wenxiao didn't say anything. He looked at Yu Li. Although he knew that she would be fine, a lingering anger still welled up in his heart.
No man wants to see his wife coveted by another man, especially a disgusting scum.
Yu Li waved his hands, "I'm fine, it's just that Master Kang Qi is in trouble..."
She was a little embarrassed and briefly recounted what she had done in Mr. Kang Qiye's villa.
The steward looked at her blankly, so this was her intention to cause trouble for Master Xuan.
But... this doesn't seem like a big deal, right?
If Young Master Xuan were here and knew about this, I'm afraid he would lead people directly to Master Kang Qi's villa and kill Master Kang Qi himself.
After saying this, Yu Li continued, "I left when it was dark and no one saw me. I thought I would ask you to pick up the two girls later and send them to other places to recover first."
In fact, the reason I stayed in the villa for so long was that I wanted to wait for my superpowers to recover before treating the two girls.
Otherwise, given their condition, I'm afraid their bodies won't be able to hold on for too long.
Upon hearing this, the steward hurriedly said, "Madam Fu, I'll arrange for someone to go over right away."
His expression was very serious. No matter what, those were two lives and they certainly couldn't just sit back and watch.
It is just the right time to take advantage of the fact that the Kang family doesn't know about the villa and hasn't reacted yet, so we can deal with it quickly. This way we have more room for maneuver.
The manager was a man with a plan in mind. Upon hearing the news, he did not have time to say much to Yu Li and immediately went to make arrangements.
Soon the couple were the only ones left in the room.
Yu Li looked at the steward who left in a hurry, turned to look at Fu Wenxiao, and suddenly asked: "Xiao brother, do you know where the Kang family's house is?"
Fu Wenxiao looked at her steadily and nodded slightly: "I know."
"Really? Where is it? Tell me quickly." she said happily.
Although she had been in the city for several days, the city was quite large, and she had only focused on food in the city these days, so she really didn't know where the Kang family's house was.
I originally planned to go and see it when I had time, but I didn't expect something like this to happen.
Fu Wenxiao didn't answer in a hurry. He poured her a glass of water and pulled her to sit down.
Although Yu Li didn't understand what he meant, she still sat down obediently. She was thirsty as well, so she drank the water he poured in one gulp.
Seeing that she was still thirsty, he poured her another glass.
After she finished drinking the water, Fu Wenxiao pushed a box of snacks on the table in front of her and said softly, "Li Niang, take a rest first. I'll ask the kitchen to make you something to eat."
Having said this he went out to call someone, gave some instructions, and then came back.
Yu Li touched her stomach. When she came back earlier, she went to see the two injured girls and gave them all her accumulated superpowers. So on the way back, she was actually tired and hungry.
She took the snacks from the box and started eating without hesitation.
When Fu Wenxiao came in, she asked curiously, "How do you know I'm hungry?"
Noticing that her demeanor had become relaxed, Fu Wenxiao's eyebrows and eyes also softened, and he said implicitly: "You said someone was injured, I know you will definitely treat them."
Every time she finished treating him, she would be hungry.
Although they had been together for less than a year, he already knew her character very well.
She values human life very much, especially when faced with civilians in distress, she will never sit idly by and will definitely help them and do her part.
Therefore, when she saw what happened to the two girls in Mr. Kang Qiye's villa, she would be in a bad mood.
Yu Li said "oh" and couldn't help but look at him. He felt that this man was really smart. There were many things that he could understand without having to be specifically stated.
It's a good feeling to have someone who understands you and supports you.
She nibbled on the snack slowly and asked, "Xiao brother, do you know what I'm going to do?"
Fu Wenxiao nodded. In fact, when he heard her ask the steward Xuan Huaiqing to find evidence of the Kang family's crimes, he guessed what she wanted to do. Later, when he heard her ask where the Kang family's house was, he became even more certain.
Yu Li looked at him curiously, "Aren't you going to stop me?"
"I won't stop you." Fu Wenxiao said gently, "You can do whatever you want. I told you that you can do it freely."
Yu Li looked at him again, and suddenly realized that it seemed like being an opposite to him was actually quite good.
Because no matter what she does, he will support her.
Well, I'll find a time some other day to ask him if he's willing.
-
The prepared meal was quickly brought over from the kitchen, and the portion was quite large.
Fu Wenxiao served her the food and reminded her, "Li Niang, eat slowly, don't choke."
Yu Li buried his head in eating, making muffled responses but not slowing down.
When she was finally full and satisfied, she saw the steward coming back.
The steward said, "I have arranged for someone to send the two girls to the manor outside the city. There is a doctor there, so they will be fine."
There is a curfew in the city, and the city gates will be closed when dark.
However, the Xuan family has a special status in the capital city. If the Xuan family wants to arrange for people to leave the city, the soldiers guarding the city are still willing to give the Xuan family face. Therefore, the Xuan family really has to step in on this matter.
This is also the reason why Yu Li did not choose to hide it and came back directly to ask for help.
The steward added: "I have sent someone to send a message to our young master. He will be back as soon as possible. Don't worry. With Young Master Xuan here, the Kang family will not embarrass you."
In this matter, it was Mr. Kang Qi who was at fault first. If the Kang family wants to make trouble, it depends on whether the Xuan family is willing.
No matter what, Yu Li is Young Master Xuan's guest. Mr. Kang Qi dares to attack the Xuan family's guest, which shows that he does not take the Xuan family seriously.
Others might be wary of the Kang family and the third prince behind the Kang family, but the Xuan family would not, unless the third prince wanted to break off relations with the General's Mansion.
After the steward finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Yu Li.
The person who had just gone to deal with the matter of the Kang family's villa came back and told him about the situation over there and the injuries on Mr. Kang Qi's body. Although Xiao was the manager and had experienced a lot, he was still shocked.
Yu Li had just made light of it before. He thought she had some martial arts skills, which could be just enough to hurt Mr. Kang Qi and save the two poor girls.
There might not even be many people in Mr. Kang Qi's villa, which allowed her to mess up the villa so smoothly.
He had already overestimated her abilities, but he didn't know that he actually underestimated her.
It seems that this girl knows more than just martial arts, she must be very good at it.
No wonder Young Master Xuan attaches so much importance to her.
When Young Master Xuan left, he specifically instructed them to serve the distinguished guests well, especially Madam Fu, to take good care of her and not neglect her.
"What happened at Master Kang Qi's villa should be kept secret for a few days." When the steward said this, he couldn't help but look at Yu Li again, thinking that she might have done it on purpose.
Everyone in this villa fell down, and there was not even one person who could go and report the situation.
Besides, Mr. Kang Qi was a playboy who usually hung out outside and seldom went home. Even if he didn't go home for a few days and didn't show up in public, the Kang family wouldn't suspect anything.
This makes it easier for them to operate.
As for whether Mr. Kang Qi would get into trouble due to excessive blood loss after being left in the other courtyard, the manager didn't care at all.
Mr. Kang Qi had a bad reputation in the city, and he had done many evil things. The other courtyard was a place of sin, and countless innocent women died there. However, because he had the support of the Kang family, no matter what evil things he did, the Kang family could protect him and settle them.
Such a scum is a harm to the people even if he dies.
After telling them this, the steward left.
Not long after, Yu Li changed into dark clothes and prepared to go out.
Fu Wenxiao said, "Li Niang, be careful. If you are discovered, just attack her directly. Don't show mercy." When he said this, his expression was cold.
Yu Li felt that she was not so useless and would definitely not be discovered. However, she was also a little curious, so she turned around and asked him, "What if I am discovered?"
Fu Wenxiao smiled and said, "If I'm discovered, I'll have no choice but to flee with you."
"Are you really not afraid of being wanted by the government?"
She looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect that such a smart man would choose such a path.
"What are you afraid of? Don't you have me?" He said casually, "As long as you are here, it doesn't matter if I have to flee to the ends of the earth."
Yu Li felt inexplicably happy. He was able to trust her and it really showed that he had good vision.
She said, "Don't worry, if you really have to flee to the ends of the earth, I will definitely protect you."
"us?"
"Yes, we must take mother, Yan Hui and Yan Sheng away together." She said as a matter of course, "No one can be left behind."
Fu Wenxiao: “…”
Then, Yu Li took a piece of dark cloth and covered the lower half of his face.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
She waved at him, climbed out of the open window, and like a light bird, disappeared into the night after a few takeoffs and landings.
Fu Wenxiao stood at the window and watched her leave. After a while, he came to the table and began to grind ink.
A quarter of an hour later, he asked someone to call the housekeeper over, handed him a letter, and said, "Please send someone to deliver this letter to Governor Yuan."
The steward was stunned for a moment, a look of surprise on his face.
He didn't expect that in the middle of the night, he would have to ask someone to help him deliver a letter, and the recipient of the letter was the governor of Nanjun Province.
He asked inquiringly, "Mr. Fu, this... do you know Governor Yuan?"
Fu Wenxiao said calmly, "Just have someone deliver it."
The steward's expression changed, he solemnly responded, took the letter with both hands, and retreated respectfully.
After leaving the guest house, the steward breathed a sigh of relief and found himself breaking out in a cold sweat.
Mr. Fu usually looks approachable and gentle, but he is not so easy to get along with in private. Especially when Madam Fu is not around, he hides the expression on his face and becomes more and more deep and cold, making people dare not act rashly.
The manager couldn't help but wonder, is this Mr. Fu really just from Shanping County?
When Young Master Xuan left a message for them to take care of Mr. Fu and his wife, he only said that they were from Shanping County to take part in the provincial examination. At that time, he thought they were just ordinary scholars and did not think much about it.
After meeting him, I realized that he didn't look like an ordinary scholar at all. With his appearance and demeanor, people would believe that he was the son of a noble family.
The manager did not dare to delay and quickly called someone over to deliver the letter overnight.
Since Mr. Fu dared to let them deliver the letter, he must be acquainted with Governor Yuan.
If he really had some friendship with Governor Yuan, with Governor Yuan's intervention, even if Madam Fu really beat and killed Mr. Kang Qi, the Kang family would not dare to do anything.
**
There was an oil lamp lit in the room. Fu Wenxiao sat under the lamp, reading a book quietly.
However, he hadn't turned a page of the book in his hand for a long time.
The night grew darker and everything was silent.
Fu Wenxiao stood up and adjusted the wick to make the light brighter.
After doing this, he poured himself a cup of tea, drank a sip to wake himself up, and continued reading.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Suddenly, a voice was heard. The person sitting under the lamp turned around in surprise and saw someone climbing in from the window.
"Li Niang!" He stood up suddenly, not caring about the books that fell to the ground due to his movements, and walked towards her quickly, pulling her to check, "Are you okay?"
Yu Li stood there obediently, letting him pull her along, and said, "What can I do?"
After confirming that she was okay, he asked, "How was the investigation going?"
Seeing that she didn't have anything in her hands, I thought she didn't find it. I was about to comfort her, but I heard her say, "I brought a box back, and I don't know what's inside. Come and take a look."
Fu Wenxiao: “…”
Fu Wenxiao saw her climb out of the window again, and then carry a box in.
The box was quite heavy, but from the look on her face, it was nothing at all. She put it on the table and then opened the box, revealing neatly arranged books inside.
Fu Wenxiao picked up a book and opened it. When he saw the content, his expression suddenly changed.
He looked at her: "This is..."
"I found it in the secret room of the Kang family." Yu Li said, "The entrance to the secret room was actually built on the rockery, and the secret room is located under the lake. It's so magical."
Speaking of this, she found it quite incredible. She didn't expect that the Kang family had so many secrets that they even built such a complicated secret room.
No wonder we can’t find anyone from the Xuan family.
If she had not been able to sense extremely subtle movements, and had not discovered something was wrong with the rockery when she passed by it, and had not actually sensed someone's breathing from underground, she would not have known that the Kang family had built such a secret room.
It's so secretive, who would go out of their way to look for it underground?
Fu Wenxiao saw that her eyes were shining and she looked like she was talking about something strange, and suddenly he couldn't help laughing.
Yu Li asked him, "How about these?"
"It is indeed evidence of the Kang family's crime." Fu Wenxiao said, changing the subject, "And you also found the Kang family's secret room, which is a great achievement."
Yu Li said: "There are still many things in the secret room. I can't move so many, so I will take these books away first."
This time she went to the Kang family just to find evidence of their crimes, so she had no intention of alarming the Kang family and just took these things with her and left.
When she chose to take action against Mr. Kang Qi, she had already decided that she must bring down the Kang family.
The Kang family has done too many evil things. The gambling house in Shanping County is just one of the tools the Kang family uses to make money. There should be many more gambling houses like this one, not to mention that the Kang family is also engaged in human trafficking in private, which she really cannot tolerate.
Before coming to the capital city, she had thought about whether she should visit the Kang family in the capital city. But before she could take any action, she met Mr. Kang Qi, so she decided to do it.
Fu Wenxiao looked at her with a smile and said, "I'll have someone send these things to Governor Yuan. With these, Governor Yuan can take action against the Kang family."
"Governor Yuan?"
After knowing what the governor does, Yu Li felt relieved and handed it over to him directly: "Okay, you go and arrange it."
**
In the middle of the night, the manager had just gone to bed when he was woken up again.
He hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed to the guest house. When he saw a box handed to him by Yu Li, he was stunned.
“This, this…”
"These are evidence of the Kang family's crimes." Fu Wenxiao said calmly, "Please have someone deliver them to Governor Yuan."
The steward still looked as if he was unable to react.
"Where did this come from?"
Yu Li, who was eating snacks nearby, said, "I found it in the Kang family's house. It's in the secret room at the bottom of the lake."
The manager was shocked. How could the Kang family have such a secret room?
No wonder when Young Master Xuan visited the Kang family, he didn't find anything wrong with the Kang family no matter how hard he checked. It turns out that this is where the problem lies.
Who would have thought that the Kang family’s secret room was built under the lake?
wrong!
The steward reacted quickly and looked at Yu Li who was eating over there with a subtle look.
This was actually found by Madam Fu at the Kang family? When did she go there?
"When...did you go?" the steward asked hesitantly.
Yu Li said, "We went there tonight! Don't worry, I didn't alert the Kang family. As long as they don't go into the secret room to check before dawn, they shouldn't find out."
But even if they found out, it wouldn’t matter. The Kang family wouldn’t know it was her who moved away anyway.
The steward was stunned again.
He finally understood why she asked him those questions before. It turned out that she had already made up her mind to go to the Kang family to find evidence of the crime and wanted to destroy the Kang family in one fell swoop.
In the end, she not only hurt Mr. Kang Qi, but also went all out and attacked the Kang family directly.
At this moment, the steward finally understood why Young Master Xuan attached so much importance to Madam Fu.
How on earth did Master Xuan know such a powerful girl?
