On the right were people from the Scarlet Heaven Hall. The person in the lead was Xu Xing, an old friend. They had interacted a few times and even had a meal together.

The two groups stopped.

Looking at the scene in front of them, Zhang Ronghua, Ding Yi, and Pei Haoran gathered together. Bai Xilu’s eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and she secretly cursed at her bad luck. She was just one step away. How did she get caught by them?

Any one of the three of them would be difficult to deal with. Now that they were together, not to mention her, even if the Hall Master was here, he would not be able to use force to take down Zhao Chengjie.

If the hard way didn’t work, then the soft way would. He took a step forward and smiled like a spring breeze.” This person is an important suspect that we’ve arrested. Doctor Zhang, please do me a favor and hand him over to me. I’ll prepare a generous gift to thank you later!”

Xu Xing looked at her coldly. He guessed why the True Dragon Palace’s people had appeared here and sent people to keep an eye on them. Seeing that the Zhao Mansion was under control and the suspect might be Zhao Chengjie, he brought people over. He felt disdain and even more shameless!

“Qinglin,” he said with a smile and cupped his hands.

“Did you get promoted?” Zhang Ronghua asked with a smile as he looked at the purple robe on his body.

“I was lucky.”

“For him?”

“Yes.”

“Who is he?”

“Right Imperial Censor Zhao Chengjie! The case involving Ren Shangxuan.”

” We happened to pass by, and Ding Yi discovered us hiding in the dark. I’ll leave it to you.”

“Thank you!” Xu Xing thanked him.

Bai Xilu was anxious. If she fell into the hands of the Scarlet Heaven Palace, the credit would also be snatched by them. She hurriedly said,” No!”

“Do I need you to teach me how to do things?” Zhang Ronghua looked over coldly.

Bai Xilu clenched her hands and didn’t dare to answer. Otherwise, with Zhang Ronghua’s favor and his powerful performance in the Ministry of Works, even the True Dragon Palace wouldn’t be able to protect her. She smiled apologetically.” I dare not!”

He retracted his gaze.

“Ping Bo and the others are still waiting in Heavenly Earth. I’ll head over first,” said Zhang Ronghua with a smile.

“I’m done here,” Xu Xing said.”l’ll come and have a drink with you guys.”

The three of them got on the carriage and continued to move forward.

“Go back!” Xu Xing ordered.

He didn’t even look at them and left with his men.

Bai Xi’s face was cold as she remembered this. Now that Zhao Chengjie had been taken away by Scarlet Heaven Hall, she could only look for other clues.

Heavenly Earth.

On the third floor, in a luxurious room.

Zheng Fugui, Chen Youcai, and Lu Zhantang were sitting on chairs. There were melon seeds, longans, and a pot of tea on the table.

” What’s wrong?” Lu Zhantang was munching on melon seeds.” Why aren’t you here yet?”

“Cousin is a busy man. Sister Mi and I don’t even have time to treat him to a meal,” Zheng Fugui said casually as he ate the longan.

They agreed.

“How did Xiao Mi get you here?” Lu Zhantang teased.

“I heard that cousin was treating, so I agreed. He even took a thousand taels and asked me to pay.”

Chen Youcai put down his teacup and continued.” Qinglin’s character is out of the circle. Everyone knows that he has principles. He never messes around with social events, even when he’s at the bar.”

“What about Chang Qing?” Lu Zhantang asked again.

Zheng Fugui shrunk his head and panicked.” Unless it’s something serious, it’s either in my Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant or nowhere else.”

“Haha…

The door was pushed open.

The four of them entered. Huo Jingyun was waiting at the door. Ding Yi’s face was dark.” Is my reputation that bad in your eyes?” “Yes, sir!” The three of them answered in unison.

The door closed.

Zhang Ronghua introduced Pei Haoran to them and sat down again. Chen

Youcai asked,” Why are you here now?”

He briefly explained Zhao Chengjie’s situation.

“I’ll punish myself with three cups later,” said Chen Youcai with a smile.

“Good!”

Ding Yi revealed his sleeves and grabbed a handful of melon seeds. He threw one into his mouth and ate it. He spat out the shell.” What are you waiting for?”

Exalted One!”

Huo Jingyun was already used to it. The smile on his face did not fade.

Clapping his hands, the door opened and Sister Lu walked in with a group of girls. The servant closed the door. There were a total of twelve people, and the leader was Ning Xue.

Her face was covered with a pale white veil. She wore a long white dress with pink ribbons around her shoulders. She was dressed up meticulously, wearing jewelry, hairpins, and holding a zither, guzheng, and other musical instruments.

Hibiscus rose from the clear water. She was as beautiful as a city. She was young and beautiful. Her skin was white and smooth. She had deliberately exposed the chastity sand outside. The fresh fragrance wafted over. She could not get tired of smelling it. It made people like it. The visual impact was full and it tested one’s concentration.

“Greetings, sirs!”

” I heard that you were coming, so I specially prepared it,” Huo Jingyun introduced with a smile. Other than Ning Xue, the other eleven were bought from the Education Bureau at a high price. They were nurtured since young and have excellent temperaments. They know etiquette and are proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Are you satisfied?”

Everyone understood that this was because of Zhang Ronghua.

As long as he came over, Ning Xue would definitely be there and become the “imperial” girl!

“It’s indeed different.” Zhang Ronghua nodded.

These people should have come from the families of officials, and their families were in decline, or they had been confiscated and escorted to the capital to be handed over to the Education Bureau. That was why this scene happened.

Huo Jingyun waved his hand to signal the start.

The six of them held instruments in their hands and played. Ning Xue was the leader. She brought along the dance music of the five of them. Elegant and clear music sounded, accompanied by singing and dancing. There were also graceful figures that were pleasing to the eye.

Sister Lu instructed the servant maids to remove the melon seeds and other dishes on the table and replace them with dishes made from demon meat. The wine was spiritual wine, Qinghua wine. Huo Jingyun was very good at dealing with people and specially ordered people to purchase it from Ru Family Restaurant. He even reached an exclusive agreement. There were countless restaurants in the capital, and only Heavenly Earth was served..
