The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy
Chapter 66 The Madam is Missing!
Lord Jia didn't know why the Fourth Prince came to Suzhou, but what he wanted to tell Shi Weian now was: "Do you know why I punished the young master of the Li family with thirty strokes of the cane?"
From what Shi Weian said just now, we know that Li Youbin must have told Shi Weian about the torture he suffered in the government office that day, which led to what happened today.
Lord Jia wanted to explain the matter clearly to Shi Weian. The reason why Li Youbin was caned was because he was forced by the Fourth Prince. Under the coercion of the Fourth Prince, he had no room for resistance.
Shi Wei'an closed his eyes, hiding the deep thought in his eyes, and asked, "Why?"
"That's because Young Master Li accidentally injured the Fourth Prince while riding his horse on the street!"
As he spoke, he paused, and a helpless expression appeared on Lord Jia's face. He held his forehead and sighed, "At that time, the Fourth Prince's guards came to the government office with a dragon-patterned jade pendant, saying that it was the Fourth Prince's will that this official must severely punish Young Master Li. This official had no other choice."
"After thinking it over, I can only follow the Fourth Prince's orders. Otherwise, I'm afraid the Fourth Prince will not let it go!"
"If the Fourth Prince causes trouble for the Li family and accidentally involves you, that would be terrible!"
Lord Jia looked as if he was thinking of you, Lord. Shi Weian's gloomy expression immediately eased a lot.
Shi Wei'an deeply agreed with what Lord Jia said.
In this situation, the emperor has sent an imperial envoy to settle accounts with the officials in Jiangnan. If the fourth prince really goes to the Li family, it might really bring him trouble...
Li Qiuqiu's younger brother was really unlucky. He rode his horse in the street and actually hurt the Fourth Prince!
Not only could Shi Weian not pursue the matter of Li Youbin's torture, he had to believe that Lord Jia had handled the case well.
Shi Wei'an nodded, and suddenly raised his hand to pat Lord Jia on the right shoulder, praising him: "Lord Jia is very good, I was wrong about you."
Feeling the force on his shoulder and hearing Shi Weian's praise, Lord Jia immediately felt relieved.
This level has been passed.
However, Li Youbin, who was standing in front of the main table, almost jumped up when he saw the scene in front of him!
Li Youbin resisted the urge to rush over and separate the two. He stared at Master Jia with wide eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, "I wonder what that Jia guy said to Master that made Master so close to him!"
Lord Jia had no time to pay attention to Li Youbin's gaze at this time. He was shocked by Shi Weian's words. Shi Weian asked, "Does Lord Jia know which inn the Fourth Prince is staying in Suzhou City at this time?"
Lord Jia was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react, "Hey, this, this... why would you ask this?"
Shi Weian said calmly, "It's a rare opportunity for me to come to Suzhou, so I'll stay for two more days before leaving. Now that I know the Fourth Prince is in Suzhou, I should bring gifts and visit the Fourth Prince."
Lord Jia couldn't answer.
It has been several days since what happened that day, and Lord Jia has still not received a reply from the guard. He doesn't know whether the Fourth Prince has left Suzhou or not, and he doesn't know the severity of his injuries at this time.
Lord Jia considered carefully and answered: "I have never seen the Fourth Prince, so I really don't know where the Fourth Prince is. Besides, it has been a few days, and I don't know if the Fourth Prince is still in Suzhou..."
Hearing this, Shi Weian's eyes flickered slightly. If the Fourth Prince was still in Suzhou at this time, he might have come here for the Jiangnan officialdom.
If the Fourth Prince was not there, then he could just assume that the Fourth Prince just happened to be passing through Suzhou...
However, his principle is that he would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go!
Shi Wei'an smiled gently: "Master Jia, don't be nervous. I believe that Master Jia will be able to find the whereabouts of the Fourth Prince in Suzhou City, right?"
Lord Jia: “…”
Although Shi Wei'an was smiling, Lord Jia's eyes could instantly make his hair stand on end and cold sweats run down his spine. He couldn't say no, so he could only suppress the fear in his heart and bow his head and reply: "I will certainly do as you wish."
"very good."
The smile on Shi Weian's face became more gentle.
After saying this, Shi Weian turned around and went back to the main table.
Lord Jia stood where he was, raised his sleeves with a look of fear on his face, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and began to worry about his official career.
Lord Jia didn't know why Shi Weian wanted to see the Fourth Prince, but looking at Shi Weian's expression just now, it seemed that he had other plans in mind.
For a moment, Lord Jia didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to involve the Fourth Prince...
As soon as Shi Weian sat down, Li Youbin wanted to test what Lord Jia had just said to Lord Shi.
But before Li Youbin could say anything, he saw Lord Jia walking back dejectedly. He noticed that Lord Jia's face was as pale as when he left before, as if he had suffered some blow.
Li Youbin's mind instantly became active again.
Maybe Lord Shi was just warning Lord Jia not to make things difficult for the Li family, which is why Lord Jia showed such an expression.
Thinking of this, Li Youbin instantly felt relaxed all over and no longer thought about testing Lord Shi.
Lord Jia didn't know what Li Youbin was thinking. He looked at the table full of delicious food and had no appetite. He said, "Sir, please allow me to go back and investigate what you are talking about."
Li Youbin:?
Before he could even make a move, Lord Jia wanted to leave?
Upon learning that Lord Jia was coming to the banquet, Li Youbin had specially prepared a "surprise" for Lord Jia. He naturally did not want Lord Jia to leave, so he said, "Lord Shi has just arrived, and Lord Jia is leaving. Lord Jia's behavior this time is probably a little inappropriate, isn't it?"
At this point, Lord Jia was too lazy to pay attention to Li Youbin. He looked up at Shi Weian, knowing that Shi Weian would definitely agree to let him leave early.
indeed.
Shi Wei'an nodded: "Since Lord Jia has something to do, Lord Jia should leave first. Anyway, I will stay in Suzhou for a few days, so I will go to the government office tomorrow to chat with Lord Jia."
Li Youbin: ???
Lord Jia stood up and bowed to Shi Wei'an, saying, "Sir, I will leave first."
Before he finished speaking, Lord Jia turned around and left.
Suddenly, there was a hurried sound of footsteps, which seemed a bit flustered.
The people sitting in the front yard couldn't help but look up.
Shi Weian is no exception.
With just one glance, Shi Weian's eyes froze and he stood up suddenly.
Shi Wei'an walked out quickly around the table and asked calmly, "Why are you so flustered? What happened?"
"grown ups!"
The maid who came hurriedly was the one Shi Weian specially arranged to serve Li Qiuqiu.
The maidservant Linglong suddenly knelt on the ground and said in panic: "Sir, Madam, Madam is missing!"
