"Your Highness, would you like to put someone in charge of that gambling house?"

Xuanyuan Ke nodded, "As long as people keep an eye on you, go to that village and see for yourself how that person is related to the lives of people in the gambling house."

When Zhang Siyuan entered the door, Zhu Qiuqi had already opened her eyes.

Seeing that the person was still asleep, Zhang Siyuan was stunned.

"You haven't rested yet?"

Zhu Qiuqi nodded.

"Still thinking about my sister-in-law's family?"

Zhu Qiuqi did not deny it.

"My sister-in-law's family haven't been to our place for a long time. When they came to pester my sister-in-law, my mother drove them away. I didn't expect that they can still come to make trouble now. I always feel that someone is inciting them to come. of."

Zhang Siyuan's eyes flashed, "Do you doubt your sister-in-law's mother-in-law?"

Zhu Qiuqi nodded, "Aunt Liu said that the woman's mother-in-law forced the sister-in-law's mother and brother to ask for money, but I always felt something was wrong."

"If my sister-in-law's mother-in-law's family really only wanted to threaten them with money, how could my sister-in-law's mother-in-law return to her family after staying at Zhou's house for a few days?"

"And I heard that the village chief of Zhoujia Village is also a powerful person. If he stays in Zhoujia Village all the time, nothing will happen to his sister-in-law and he will not be taken away."

"But that woman went back, and she went back so suddenly."

Zhang Siyuan nodded, and he also thought something was wrong about Zhu Qiuqi's suspicion.

"More importantly, my sister-in-law owns a workshop. Her mother and brother came to Xiaozhangzhuang and asked for money. Why did they ask for the braised pork workshop instead of the braised pork workshop?"

"I have never met them, but my sister-in-law is their biological daughter. Even if you want a workshop, wouldn't it be easier to get a braised pork workshop?"

Zhang Siyuan frowned. He didn't know what he thought of, but he suddenly stood up.

"Qiu Qi, you rest first, I'll go next door."

Zhu Qiuqi was stunned, although she didn't know why Zhang Siyuan reacted so suddenly.

But if Zhang Siyuan wants to go next door, he must be looking for Xuanyuan Ke.

Zhu Qiuqi knew that it was no small matter for Zhang Siyuan to find Xuanyuan Ke so late, but she did not stop him.

After Zhang Siyuan went out, Zhu Qiuqi was still thinking about the strangeness of this matter.

Xuanyuan Ke was also very surprised when he learned that Zhang Siyuan had come.

"General Zhang, did you tell me what happened?"

The guard waiting at the door said: "I don't know, General Zhang has not made it clear."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Ke patted the people around him comfortingly.

"You rest first, I'll go out and take a look."

Knowing that some people were restless during this period, Zheng Jinyu could understand her husband's busyness.

When Xuanyuan Ke came out, he saw Zhang Siyuan sitting in the yard in front.

"Siyuan? What happened?"

Zhang Siyuan wanted to stand up and salute, but Xuanyuan Ke stopped him.

"I'm afraid there's something fishy about my sister-in-law."

Xuanyuan Ke was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but frown.

"But sister-in-law..."

Zhang Siyuan shook his head.

"It has nothing to do with the sister-in-law. I always feel that it has something to do with the sister-in-law from the sister-in-law's family or even her family."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Ke immediately understood what Zhang Siyuan meant.

"You mean that casino?"

Zhang Siyuan nodded, "General Li has sent people to check the casino before. It is very clean inside, but as a casino, it is even cleaner than the ordinary people in the village. Isn't it strange?"

Xuanyuan Ke was stunned, thinking of what Li Juntong had reported before, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

"And the other party is probably targeting Ji Shitang this time."

Xuanyuan Ke's face darkened.

"what happened?"

"Just now Qiu Qi suddenly told me that while my sister-in-law's family was asking her for money today, they also planned to ask Qiu Qi to give them this workshop."

"But if they were really just after money, why didn't they mention my sister-in-law's braised pork workshop, but instead focused on the workshop?"

"Qiu Qi said that the eldest sister-in-law's natal family seems to have something to do with the eldest sister-in-law's natal family. I just don't know what that person said to the eldest sister-in-law's natal family to let them come here."

Xuanyuan Ke pondered for a long time, and suddenly his eyes narrowed.

"You're saying that the person behind the scenes wants to use the people from my sister-in-law's family to attack the workshop?"

"The general does have this intention, but there is no evidence for this matter, and the general does not dare to draw conclusions at will."

Xuanyuan Ke nodded, "Qiu Qi is right about this matter. We were careless."

As long as the workshop is now the lifeblood of Jishi Hall, and Jishi Hall is the only place that can heal border soldiers, these people are really good at it.

"Immediately send someone to investigate, whether it is the sister-in-law's natal family or the eldest sister-in-law's natal family, they must find out."

Zhang Siyuan accepted the order.

Zhu Qiuqi woke up early the next morning and originally planned to go to the county seat.

After all, she had already completed the order Han Qingling had given her before, and was ready to deliver the goods today.

However, before she went out today, she was already stopped by Zhang Siyuan.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Zhu Qiuqi and Zhang Siyuan have been together for such a long time, and she still understands Zhang Siyuan's nature, and Zhang Siyuan cannot stop her for no reason.

Zhang Siyuan didn't know whether he should tell Zhu Qiuqi about the gambling house, but thinking of the current situation in the county, Zhang Siyuan reminded her anyway.

"It's not safe in the county now, just ask Pei Yuan to send him off."

Zhu Qiuqi looked at Pei Yuan in the distance.

Pei Yuan said: "Sister-in-law, I happen to have something to do in the county today. Let me bring you something."

Although I don't know what Zhang Siyuan said to Xuanyuan Ke last night, it was not safe for Pei Yuan to take off these two people last night.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiuqi did not persist.

"Okay, I'll bother you then. But there's nothing extra in this batch. Slow down on the road and give the things to Ling'er."

Pei Yuan promised, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't drop things."

After watching Pei Yuan leave, Zhu Qiuqi looked at Zhang Siyuan.

"But what happened?"

Zhang Siyuan nodded, "There is indeed something wrong."

Zhu Qiuqi saw this and stopped asking.

"Okay, I will stay at home these days and not leave the village."

Seeing Zhu Qiuqi like this, Zhang Siyuan also let out a sigh of relief.

If the other party can get close to Zhoujia Village, they may have someone in the village keeping an eye on Xiao Zhangzhuang.

As for the people in Xiao Zhangzhuang, Zhang Siyuan didn't think they would be disadvantageous to Zhu Qiuqi now.

Unless they no longer want to stay in Xiaozhangzhuang, or even want to leave Xiaozhangzhuang with their ancestors.

"Qiu Qi, please stay at home with me today. I happen to have something to talk to you about."

Ever since the time to go to the capital was determined, Zheng Jinyu would always look for opportunities to mention matters in the capital to Zhu Qiuqi, fearing that Zhu Qiuqi would suffer a loss when she arrived in the capital in the future.
