Chapter 515: Not Good

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Jia obtained evidence of the Cheng family colluding with Magistrate Feng to sell iron ore and did not need to investigate other evidence. He told Ruyi and the secret guards not to return to the posthouse but to prepare to bring them to Qingyue Mountain the next morning.

He wrote another letter and asked Zhao Cai to go to the courier station to get the soldiers to hand the letter to Judge Wu and tell him that he had brought people to the various counties and towns below to check.

Thinking of the woman who had sent the letter, he was afraid that the Cheng family and Magistrate Feng would search for her whereabouts after finding out that she had left. He said to Ruyi, “Go to Causeway Lane and bring the Wu couple to the grocery store. Get Chu Shan’s people to find a place to hide them.”

Ruyi agreed and left for Causeway Lane. When he arrived at the alley, it was already dark. Ruyi climbed over the wall and entered the Wu family’s courtyard to wake up the Wu couple. The couple protected the children and looked at Ruyi fearfully. “Little brother, I’ve already given you everything Young Master gave…”

Ruyi raised her hand and smiled. “Sister-in-law, don’t be afraid. The magistrate’s people will be looking for you soon. It’s not safe for you to live here. I’ll bring you to a safe place.”

The woman looked up at her husband. Seeing the man nod, she said, “Okay, we’ll follow you. ”

The woman packed a few changes of clothes and followed Ruyi to the grocery store. The shopkeeper placed them in the secret room.

Zhou Jia asked the secret guards in the courier station to retreat from the courier station, leaving only the escorts on the surface.

The people sent by the Cheng family to follow them out of the posthouse returned in defeat. Seeing that there was no movement in the posthouse until dark, the people monitoring Zhou Jia could not hold it in anymore. As soon as the lights were off, they got someone to sneak into the posthouse and realized that there was no sign of the imperial envoy at all. Only the guards were left in the posthouse.

After Cheng Shan received the news, he hurriedly asked someone to monitor the situation. He learned that at dusk, a woman and Ruyi were standing at the entrance of the courtyard talking. They were too far away to see the woman’s appearance clearly.

After everyone in the courier station saw the woman, they all left. Cheng Shan and the Eldest Prince felt that something was wrong. “Uncle, quickly find Magistrate Feng and ask him to ask the guards what kind of woman had been to the courier station. Hurry up and send someone to find this woman.”

Cheng Shan went to the magistrate’s office overnight to see Magistrate Feng. Feng Qing was sleeping soundly with his concubine in his arms. When he heard the servant report that Cheng Shan was visiting late at night, he was shocked. He hurriedly got someone to get up and put on his clothes. When he went out and saw Cheng Shan, he asked, “What happened in the middle of the night?”

Cheng Shan’s face darkened. “The imperial envoy and his personal guard are gone. I heard from the people watching him that a woman went to see his steward at dusk.”

Feng Qing looked at Cheng Shan in confusion. “After a woman went to see them, they disappeared. Could it be that this woman told them some news?

They just left. Hurry up and get someone to find this woman! What’s the use of you looking for me?”

Cheng Shan said in a low voice, “My people didn’t see the woman’s appearance, so I came to look for you in the middle of the night! Find the soldiers on duty at dusk and ask about the woman’s appearance so that we can find her.”

Magistrate Feng nodded with a dark expression. “Go back first. I’ll get someone

to call the soldiers on duty.”

Cheng Shan cupped his hands at him and said, “Hurry up. I have a bad feeling.”

The two of them were in the same boat. Cheng Shan’s words made Magistrate Feng’s expression even darker. He nodded in agreement and got someone to send Cheng Shan off before rushing towards the front office.

After getting someone to call the guard who had gone home to ask, the guard replied, “Sir, that woman has a medium build and is in her thirties. She’s fair and clean-looking, has an oval face, and willovvy eyebrows…”

Magistrate Feng got someone to draw the woman’s appearance and got the guard to verify it. Magistrate Feng hurriedly got someone to send the portrait to the Cheng family.

After a while, Cheng Shan got the portrait. Looking around, he felt that he had seen the woman in the portrait somewhere before. After thinking for a long time, he couldn’t remember.

Just as he was about to ask someone, the Eldest Prince got someone to call him over.

Cheng Shan arrived at the courtyard where the Eldest Prince lived. After showing him the portrait, the Eldest Prince said, “Uncle, deploy people to search quietly. When we find her, ask Cheng Shan to find a name and send officials to search the entire city for that woman.”

When Cheng Shan heard this, he felt that it made sense. He hurriedly took the portrait to the government office.

Judge Wu heard from someone that Magistrate Feng had sent officials to search the entire city. When the portrait of the woman appeared at the entrance of the posthouse at dusk, he rushed to the government office and resolutely objected.

“Lord Feng, the imperial envoy, Lord Zhou, left a letter saying he went to the other counties to investigate. The imperial envoy left the posthouse on his own and has nothing to do with this woman. Why did you search for this woman? It will disturb the peace of the entire city.”

“Lord Zhou left a letter for you? Why didn’t you report it?” Magistrate Feng looked at Judge Wu in surprise.

Judge Wu glanced at him. “I went to look for you. You left the government office long ago.”

Magistrate Feng looked at Judge Wu, who was blocking the way, and could not find the right person to search for the woman for a moment. He understood that no matter what, he would not be able to send an official to search the entire city tonight.

On second thought, if the imperial envoy really only went to the various counties to investigate, it would be easy. He was afraid that he would receive some news and leave. It was better to let the Cheng family send people to search in private.

Judge Wu looked at the uncertain Magistrate Feng and wondered to himself, “Where did this woman come from? They actually sent officials to search with great fanfare. What are they afraid of?”

Magistrate Feng glared at Judge Wu and turned to return to the back office to get someone to send a letter to the Cheng family.

When Cheng Shan received the news, he could only send people to search for the woman’s whereabouts. There was still no news after dawn. Cheng Shan looked at the portrait and still could not remember where he had seen it before. He simply took the portrait back to the backyard and let his Madam take a look.

Madam Cheng Shan took a look. “I think it’s Third Brother’s personal maidservant, Qiong Hua. That’s right, it’s her.”

“You traitorous bitch.” Cheng Shan cursed angrily and brought his men out of the city to a house in Cheng Village.

She got someone to open a room and threw the portrait in the man’s face. She pointed at him and shouted, “Tell me, did you ask this bitch to send something to the posthouse?”

The man looked up at Cheng Shan and smiled self-deprecatingly. “Ever since

Cheng Shan took a step forward and grabbed his throat. He looked at him viciously. “Cheng Xu, you better tell me honestly where this woman lives.

Otherwise, your two sisters…”

Cheng Xu mocked in a hoarse voice, “The dignified Master Cheng has finally revealed your true colors. If you have the ability, kill all three of us.”

Cheng Shan said sinisterly in his ear, “Wouldn’t it be too easy on you if I killed you? If you don’t tell me, I’ll get someone to send your sister to the private residence when I get back…”

Cheng Xu turned around abruptly. “If you dare, I won’t let you off when

Grandfather returns..”
