The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Lord Jingzhao Yin frowned slightly, and the corners of his mouth were a little stiff.

After a moment, he sighed slightly: "What the prince said is not unreasonable, but this case has been thoroughly investigated. The wine shop is indeed Mr. Zhao's property, and the gambling house and loan sharking are deeply involved. Once the verdict is changed, I'm afraid many things will not end well."

Ren Wang's eyes were sharp as he approached: "It's nothing more than a mistake to arrest Zhao Cezhi. Although Zhao Cezhi is the owner of the wine shop, there is someone else behind the gambling house and the loan sharking. It's Zhang Shun. I have brought him here."

"Zhang Shun?" Lord Jingzhao Yin softly repeated the name with a little hesitation.

He knew very well in his heart that Zhang Shun was nothing more than a scapegoat.

"Yes, Zhang Shuncai is the one who runs the gambling house, and Zhao Cezhi was arrested by mistake."

Prince Ren stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Zhao Cezhi is the Third Prince's man, and there is a lot of water behind him. You should understand that this matter cannot be dug too deep."

Lord Jingzhao Yin was silent for a moment, his mind racing.

Once he complies with Niou's wishes, he can ostensibly avoid the pressure from the Third Prince and Niou, but if anyone else pursues the case in the future, he will likely face unimaginable consequences.

Lord Jingzhao Yin frowned, pretending to hesitate, and finally sighed: "Your Highness, this matter is not a trivial matter. The young master has already intervened in the investigation. If Lord Zhao is suddenly released, the young master will definitely not let it go easily."

Niou narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

He took a step closer and said in a cold tone, "So, Cao Liang and Wu Ming will assist you and make all the evidence perfect. As long as the evidence is perfect, even if the young master sends people to investigate, they won't be able to find any loopholes."

He paused for a moment, and seeing that Lord Jingzhao Yin was still hesitant, his eyes became colder: "Lord Jingzhao Yin, things have come to this point, do you have any other choice?"

King Ren's patience has been exhausted, and if Jingzhao Yin refuses again, I'm afraid that what awaits him will not be a good outcome.

Cao Liang stepped forward and said, "Sir, the prince has already paved a way out for you. Zhang Shun will take all the responsibility. Who dares to ask any more questions?"

Lord Jingzhao Yin felt helpless and could only sigh in his heart.

He looked embarrassed, but nodded slowly: "If that's the case... then I will follow your instructions. But I must do it perfectly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

When King Ren saw that Jingzhao Yin finally gave in, his anxiety was slightly relieved.

He sneered, with a hint of complacency in his tone: "Don't worry, sir, with Cao Liang and Wu Ming assisting you, the evidence you need will naturally be prepared."

Seeing this, Lord Jingzhao Yin knew that the situation was irreversible and could only do as King Ren asked. He cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will arrange for someone to handle everything as soon as possible and make sure that Young Master Gu cannot find any flaws."

Ren Wang nodded with a gloomy look, and coldly warned: "Remember, don't make any more mistakes."

At this time, Qingji was hiding in the dark outside the Jingzhao Yin Mansion.

He saw King Ren's carriage parked in front of the mansion. King Ren walked in hurriedly, followed closely by Cao Liang and Wu Ming.

Qingji's heart moved and he sneered secretly, knowing that the big thing had been done. King Ren finally couldn't bear it and came out in person.

Then he didn't wait any longer, turned around, flew away into the night, and headed straight for the palace.

After galloping all the way, Qingji arrived outside the palace.

At the palace gate, Qingji handed over Gu Nanyuan's visiting card. The guard took a look at the card and immediately recognized the young master's name. He did not dare to delay and quickly let him pass.

Qingji entered the palace smoothly, walked through the courtyard with familiarity, and headed straight for the competition arena where Gu Nanyuan was.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the arena was at a climax.

Several princes took turns to challenge Gu Nanyuan, and the scene was extremely lively.

However, no matter how hard his opponent tried, Gu Nanyuan remained calm and won with one move, appearing to be at ease.

He was agile and each of his moves was clean and neat. Although the princes were very enthusiastic, none of them could match him.

The fourth prince panted, covered his shoulder, and said with a wry smile: "The young master is indeed worthy of his reputation. I don't think I can get the Thousand Mountains Map."

Gu Nanyuan smiled slightly, clasped his hands together, and said calmly: "My brothers are all skilled in martial arts, I just won by luck."

The prince stood aside, watching the competition in the arena end, with a faint smile on his face. He then walked forward and teased, "What a 'lucky', Nanyuan, you are not being modest, you are simply humiliating your brothers."

The princes burst into laughter upon hearing this. Even though they lost the competition, the atmosphere was still cheerful.

A competition is just a stopgap measure. What is important is the process, not the result.

While everyone was laughing and talking, Qingji hurried to the sidelines, bowed slightly, and whispered a few words to Gu Nanyuan.

Gu Nanyuan's eyes flickered, he nodded, then walked to the prince and said softly, "The bird is coming."

When the prince heard this, a look of understanding appeared in his eyes. He then turned to look at Gu Nanyuan, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "It's time to act."

He winked at his men, and they left quietly.

The candlelight flickered in the Jingzhao Yin Mansion, shining on the dim walls.

The Jingzhao Yin ordered the constable to release Zhao Cezhi.

The constable took the order and immediately turned around and left quickly.

A moment later, Zhao Cezhi was brought to the front of the mansion. He originally thought that he had no way to retreat, but someone came to rescue him at this moment, and that person was King Ren.

When he saw Ren Wang's calm face, he was shocked, and then a huge surprise came over him.

He walked quickly to the front of King Ren, knelt down and kowtowed, his voice trembling slightly, full of gratitude: "Your Majesty, I am deeply grateful for your personal rescue. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would be in prison now."

Ren Wang smiled and said, "Get up. Now that things have come to this, I am only acting out of consideration. Although you were mistakenly arrested, fortunately it is not yet irreversible."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Cezhi quickly stood up, his eyes full of awe.

He thought he could not escape this disaster, but he did not expect that King Ren would personally come to rescue him. This was undoubtedly a great favor.

He said quickly: "Your Majesty, I will remember your kindness in my heart. In the future, if you send me any orders, I will do whatever it takes, regardless of life or death."

King Ren looked at Zhao Cezhi's grateful expression and sneered in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.

He nodded slightly, his tone gentle and reserved: "Now that you have been released, you must be careful in the future. The Third Prince is too busy with this matter to take care of it, so I came here in person."

Ren Wang's tone was neither hurried nor slow, but it carried an unspoken hint.

Zhao Ce was stunned, and his heart was immediately in turmoil.
