Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

Xie Zhao lowered his head, and after a while, there was a sketch on the rice paper. The marked words were free and elegant, adding to his cool aura.

Xie Zhao spoke with a very calm expression and said without being sullen or angry: "Madam, this bun shop opened three days ago, but Zhao Fendie got lost at the bun shop. This is not a simple disappearance case."

"How do you know the bun shop is newly opened?"

Jiang Yuzhu leaned over and took a closer look. The names of the shops around the bun shop were all written by Xie Zhao, which was somewhat different from what Biyun said.

After hearing this, Liang An proudly showed off: "Madam, Biyun was too panicked and may have misremembered it, but the master will never remember it wrong."

Xie Zhao served as Jing Zhaoyin for several years and visited every inch of the capital.

Whether it is the inner city or the outer city, the east or the north of the city, every shop is remembered in his mind.

When Xie Zhao goes to the stall before the steamed bun shop opens, Xie Zhao's memory will also be updated. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a living map of the capital.

Biyun tried to recall: "I remember that next to the mutton soup shop is a dim sum shop, which is exactly the same as what Mr. Xie painted!"

Xie Zhao turned around slowly, his expression unchanged: "Madam, if my guess is correct, the bun shop may have closed down."

When Biyun discovered that Zhao Fendie was missing, her first reaction was to look for someone nearby, and then went to the bun shop to inquire.

Assuming that Baozipu was the last place where Zhao Fendie disappeared, he would definitely find a way to cover it up in order to get him away.

In this way, the best time to save people is delayed.

Jiang Yuzhu looked pale. Although she agreed with Xie Zhao's words in her heart, she still struggled to defend: "Master, maybe it's just a coincidence."

Xie Zhao frowned and his eyes flashed: "It's not a coincidence."

Liang An looked on with cold eyes and twitched the corner of his mouth uncomfortably.

No wonder the master has been alone for several years after getting married. He cannot please his wife at all. He might as well be a servant!

Zhao Fendie is Madam's good sister. At this time, the master should say nice words to comfort her and become Madam's support!

Liang'an stopped worrying and took the initiative to help make up for it: "Madam, what I mean is that Miss Zhao may be delayed due to trivial matters. When she learns that we are looking for her, she will definitely find her and send a letter first."

Xie Zhao's face darkened and his eyes were stern: "When you encounter difficulties, you must face them head-on. Even if you soften your words a little, you still can't change the facts."

The bun shop on North Street is owned by a pair of brothers who have been running it for more than ten years. Because the fillings are delicious, business is booming.

Some time ago, the two brothers suddenly owed a large sum of money to the gambling house and had no choice but to sell the shop.

The official of Jingzhao Yin Yamen met the two brothers. After learning the inside story, he suspected that the brothers were being plotted.

The Yamen just took over the case yesterday and is currently investigating.

A coincidence is accidental, and the superposition of many coincidences must be premeditated. Once a misjudgment is made by chance, the consequences will be serious.

"The person behind the scenes either wants something, or... it's a disaster."

If the person behind the scenes had a grudge against Zhao Fendie, the time it would take for us to find the person would be enough to quarrel.

After Xie Zhao explained, his eyes sank slightly and he reprimanded: "Liang'an, don't mislead Madam."

Liang'an: "..."

He was not misleading, he was trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

Not only did the master not appreciate it, he also taught him a lesson, which made his conscience suffer.

What to do if you feel wronged?Of course, he was going to complain to the old lady Shen. As an insider, Liang'an was also prepared to carefully mention the master's neglect of his wife over the years.

For example, if you enter the palace on your wedding night, there won’t even be any flowers or candles in the bridal chamber.

"Master, why are you scolding Liang'an? He just wants to comfort me."

Jiang Yuzhu made the decision for Liang An, and Liang An was even more moved.

Look, the gap between people is so big.

Madam is really kind. Even if her subordinates are stupid and make mistakes, she will not beat or scold them. She will praise them and give them benefits when they do well.

Liang'an looked at Hongjin, he couldn't wait to join his wife!

Unknowingly, Xie Zhao had betrayed everyone.

"Sir, since the other party went to great lengths to kidnap people, they must have a motive."

Jiang Yuzhu wanted to find comfort in her heart. After Xie Zhao poured cold water on her one after another, she woke up.

Half an hour later, news came from the north of the city that the bun shop was closed, and the officials went to search, but the house was empty.

The subordinate reported back: "Sir, the bun shop has a secret door leading to the alley. Miss Zhao should have been taken away through the back door."

After Jiang Yuzhu heard this, the last trace of luck in her heart disappeared.

Xie Zhao sent his men to look for witnesses, but the flow of people on North Street was so heavy that there was no news at noon.

At noon, the sun is scorching in the sky and the hot wind is dry.

In the study, Jiang Yuzhu was restless, stood up and paced back and forth, her palms sweating: "Biyun, has your lady ever offended anyone?"

Sitting back and waiting for the people behind the scenes to negotiate terms is not an option. We must take the initiative.

Jiang Yuzhu thought carefully and found out that Zhao Fendie had indeed left the Zhao family, but the Zhao family went to great lengths to buy a bun shop just to kidnap people, which was unjustifiable.

If you want to catch Zhao Fendie, all you need to do is lie.

If it’s not the Zhao family, is it the Ji family?

"Master, do you think it was Ji Chengyun who did it?"

There are not many people who are familiar with Zhao Fendie, and even fewer of them have big holidays.

Xie Zhao's eyes flashed with slight surprise: "Madam, do you doubt him?"

Ji Chengyun is a stupid person, just a slacker, and he has absolutely no ability to make such careful arrangements.

Furthermore, after the reconciliation, Zhao Fendie had no involvement with the Ji family.

Jiang Yuzhu rubbed her brows: "Master, I thought you would never underestimate an enemy, but I didn't expect that there are times when you look down on others."

Ji Chengyun is not smart, so there is no guarantee that he will get guidance from an expert.

"underestimate the enemy?"

Xie Zhao turned over the book in his hand and said calmly, "Is he worthy?"

Not to mention his talent and learning, it was widely known in the capital that Ji Chengyun suffered from kidney deficiency. Compared with such scum, Xie Zhao always felt like he was being pointed at his nose and scolded. He returned to his desk and lowered his eyes in silence.

No one said anything in the room.

Jiang Yuzhu glanced at it and thought: It's over, this is annoying.

At the moment when he was still employing people, Jiang Yuzhu could only coax Xie Zhao: "Master, I have no intention of comparing you with Ji Chengyun. He is not even worthy of carrying your shoes, and he is not one-tenth as smart as Liang An." Intelligence.”

On the side, Liang'an quickly nodded in agreement: "Madam, what you said makes sense. Besides, Ji Chengyun was drained by wine and sex, and he had to rely on Chunfeng Dusanana and other tiger and wolf medicines to maintain himself. Master will never be such a waste!"

Liang An made the point and Xie Zhao looked better.

As a man, you must not lose some dignity.

Jiang Yuzhu: "..."

After being married for more than three years, she really doesn’t know whether Xie Zhao can do it or not!

Jiang Yuzhu guessed that Xie Zhao might not be able to do it, so he used the excuse of being busy with official duties to hide away whenever he could, just for his fragile self-esteem.

Okay, hold him!

Jiang Yuzhu said sincerely: "I can't find a single flaw in my whole body. I am noble and heroic. Unlike Ji Chengyun, he looks like a villain with the head of a deer and the eyes of a rat at first glance!"

Xie Zhao's hand holding the brush paused, and he smiled in his mind: "Is there more?"

His wife was good at talking and should talk more. Xie Zhao was looking forward to Jiang Yuzhu's boasting.

Jiang Yuzhu choked, a little in disbelief. Didn't she praise her enough?

"Master, how can pale words describe your merits and my admiration for you?"

Business was important. Jiang Yuzhu knew that when asking for help, she wanted to give some benefits. She didn't know what to give to Xie Zhao.

Xie Zhao seemed to have said unintentionally: "I heard that Madam can write storybooks?"

He took a deep breath and suppressed the smile flashing in his eyes, the hint was obvious.

If you can’t praise it comprehensively, then write it down.

Jiang Yuzhu quickly understood what Xie Zhao meant, scolded her ancestors a few times in her heart, and promised sincerely: "Master, how did you know that I am preparing to write a book of praise for you?"

Jiang Yuzhu agreed to the unequal treaty, so naturally Jiang Yuzhu sold her favors.

As a result, Xie Zhao was once again at a disadvantage. His wife's cleverness in beating snakes with a stick was definitely unique.

Liang An winked. As a personal servant, he didn't know that the master was so good and the wife praised him too much!

And the master just reprimanded him, tell the truth and don't mislead people.

Isn’t it deceiving myself if the master believes those words of praise from the lady?

"actually……"

Liang An was about to stand up and expose it, but Hong Jin pulled him out of the door first.
