Jiaofang Division.

Seeing that Cao Yan still refused to speak, Zhu Yunxi shook his head in disappointment, waved his hand at Hong Yuan, then ignored him and drank to himself.

"You can go out."

Hong Yuan slowly came to Cao Yan and said coldly without any expression on her face.

"Your Highness..."

Cao Yan raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunxi again, with a pleading look on his face.

But Zhu Yunxi didn't pay attention at all. His eyes had already fallen on the dancing prostitute who was kneeling nervously next to Zi Ning, with an interesting smile on his lips.

After feeling Zhu Yunxi's gaze, the maiko lowered her head nervously, looking flustered.

Hong Yuan, who was standing in front of Cao Yan, also had no extra patience. Seeing that Cao Yan refused to leave, she immediately winked at the several Jinyi guards at the door.

Several Jinyi guards immediately stepped forward, preparing to drag Cao Yan out directly.

"Your Highness! I say!"

"I said..."

When Cao Yan saw this, he no longer dared to hide it anymore. With a sad face, he broke away from the pull of Jin Yiwei and said loudly.

"I am listening."

Zhu Yunxi finally looked at Cao Yan again, raised his hand to stop several imperial guards, and said with interest.

"I am from His Highness King Yan..."

Cao Yan's face was full of pain, and he hesitated and finally told the truth.

Hearing Cao Yan's answer, even Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He had guessed many people, including King Qin and even Zhu Yunwen, but he never expected that the person standing behind Cao Yan was actually the most despicable King of Yan!

Everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty knew that King Yan hated places like brothels and art houses the most. He even petitioned to seal down all the brothels and art houses in the Ming Dynasty more than once!

After he took over Beiping, there was no brothel in the entire city of Beiping, not even a prostitute!

But what I didn't expect was that he was actually the master behind the largest official okiya in Kyoto!

This kind of attitude and attitude made Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but reveal a contemptuous sneer!

"If you dare to lie, the entire Cao family will be buried with you. Did you know that?"

Zhu Yunxi stared into Cao Yan's eyes closely and asked word by word.

"I understand..."

"Everything I just said is true, and I don't dare to deceive even a single word..."

Cao Yan nodded vigorously and said with a painful expression.

"Okay, I keep my word. Today's incident will definitely not involve you."

"But what you and I just said, after leaving this door, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone again, do you understand?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded with satisfaction and asked lightly.

"I understand."

Cao Yan replied affirmatively.

In fact, even if Zhu Yunxi didn't warn him, he would not dare to spread the word, because once Zhu Di knew what he just said, the entire Cao family would also suffer!

It's just that his handle will always be in Zhu Yunxi's hands from now on.

"Okay, you can go and report to the official."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and raised his hand to signal.

"what?!"

Hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, Cao Yan was shocked and couldn't believe it.

He originally thought that Zhu Yunxi would find a way to cover up the murder of Cai Pingjin without anyone noticing, but he didn't expect that Zhu Yunxi actually wanted to report to the official!

"Ah what? Why don't you go quickly?!"

"You must tell the truth."

Zhu Yunxi's face darkened and he said coldly.

Cao Yan hurriedly agreed, immediately got up from the ground, stumbled out of the box, and hurried to report to the official.

"It's time for us to go."

Zhu Yunxi drank the last glass of wine, said something casually, stood up and prepared to leave.

After killing someone, the interest in playing is gone.

"What should she do?"

Zi Ning looked up at Zhu Yunxi with a solemn expression and asked softly. As he spoke, he looked at the maiko who was kneeling beside him with a worried expression.

"Didn't I just say that she is already mine? Take her back with you."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and walked straight to the door as he spoke.

Zi Ning was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face. He hurriedly stood up and helped the maiko up, and followed Zhu Yunxi together.

At this time, she was innocent and had already regarded this maiko as someone who had the same problem as herself. However, she met a good master and her life gradually became better in the past two years.

Hongyuan stood there, looking at the maiko walking past him, squinting his eyes, and a vigilant look flashed between his eyebrows.

Soon, Zhu Yunxi led everyone out of the Jiaofang Division. Although there was a lot of noise upstairs, everyone who was immersed in the fun did not know that there was a corpse upstairs with an unusual origin.

"Retrieve the secret files of the Cai family and prepare for the next storm."

"The son of the minister was killed, it's not a big deal."

Zhu Yunxi stood in front of the carriage, watching Zi Ning help the maiko into the carriage, and said softly to Hong Yuan beside him.

"Yes."

"Your Highness, do you really want to take her back to the palace?"

Hongyuan agreed respectfully, and then asked hesitantly.

"Is there a problem?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded and asked lightly.

"I don't know, I just think her origin may not be simple..."

Hongyuan shook his head hesitantly and said thoughtfully.

Upon hearing Hong Yuan's reminder, Zhu Yunxi turned his head and glanced at Hong Yuan meaningfully. Without saying anything, he walked towards the carriage with a smile.

Seeing Zhu Yunxi's expression, Hongyuan instantly understood that His Highness had actually seen through everything, so he felt relieved, turned around and left, quickly disappearing on the street.

On the carriage.

"What's your name? Where do you come from?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at the maiko, whose face was a little pale and still full of nervousness, and asked lightly.

"My name is Liuli, from the North."

The maiko lowered her head and answered softly. She didn't know if it was because she was afraid of Zhu Yunxi, but her voice was trembling when she spoke.

Hearing the word "Northern Territory", Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Who else is at home?"

"How did you get into the Jiaofang Department?"

Zhu Yunxi continued to ask.

"My parents are both dead and I have no relatives in this world..."

"Later, he was tricked by gangsters and sold into the Jiaofang Division..."

Liuli swallowed nervously and answered decisively.

"Looking at you, you don't come from an ordinary family, right?"

Zhu Yunxi paused and continued to ask.

Hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, Liuli's face clearly flashed with shock, and she became even more nervous.

"My father was a military general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty during his lifetime. He died in battle with the Ming army many years ago..."

After a moment of hesitation, Liuli continued to answer, her voice trembling slightly.

Beiyuan people!

Hearing this, before Zhu Yunxi could react, Zi Ning had a look of surprise on his face, and looked up at Zhu Yunxi with a solemn expression.

If a Beiyuan woman is brought back to Liuli Palace, once the news leaks out, it will be a big trouble!

But after hearing this, Zhu Yunxi only showed a faint smile, as calm as water.

Although he was still not sure whether what Liuli said was true or false, at least everything sounded reasonable.

The life experience of a broken family and a dead body is indeed miserable enough, coupled with the fact that he was plotted by the gangster and sold into the Jiaofangsi, it is enough to win sympathy.

And the pride in her eyes that shouldn't belong to a maiko has a reasonable explanation. After becoming a military commander, there is always some pride left in the blood.

"Would you like to come with me?"

Zhu Yunxi paused and spoke again.

Liuli hesitated, hesitating for a moment, as if she didn't understand the deep meaning behind Zhu Yunxi's words.

Perhaps she was not sure whether she was going to be a maid or a maid, or whether she would be kept in captivity and used as a plaything.

"Follow me, and no one will dare to bully you from now on."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and continued.

"willing!"

Hearing this, Liuli no longer hesitated and nodded vigorously.

Just now in the box, she had heard from Cao Yan that the person sitting in front of her was the grandson of the dynasty!

Not everyone can have such an opportunity!

Even if you are treated as a plaything, it is better than staying in the Jiaofang Division and being bullied by others. Being played by all the men. It is much easier to serve one person than to serve all the men in Kyoto!

After receiving Liuli's answer, Zhu Yunxi stopped talking, leaned against the carriage and began to close his eyes to rest while thinking about how to deal with the next thing.

...

Pro-military guard Yamen.

After Cao Yan left Jiaofangsi, he hurried here. Because he claimed that the son of the Minister of Punishment was killed in Jiaofangsi, he was brought directly to Xiao Huan, the commander of the personal army guard.

"What did you say?!"

"The son of Cai Yuanpei, the Minister of Punishment, died in your Jiaofang Department?!"

Xiao Huan asked sternly with a sullen face.

"It's absolutely true, the body is in Jiaofangsi!"

Cao Yan nodded vigorously and said with trembling lips.

"Cao Yan! Do you know the consequences of this?!"

"Are you sure you read that correctly?!"

Xiao Huan asked in a deep voice.

This matter is too big, big enough to cause uproar in the whole city...
