The Lion Tower was bustling with people, and a stone lion at the door looked lifelike. In the past, a young official like Zhang Tuiguan, who came from a low-ranking family with no power, would have little chance to come to this place where only the rich and powerful could come.
But he did not have the heart to appreciate it. He absentmindedly followed the young man up to the second floor and stopped in front of the innermost private room on the right. It was only then that some doubts arose in his mind.
Ruan Xiaojiu didn't give him a chance to think about it. She reached out and knocked on the door, then respectfully whispered, "Miss, the person is here."
girl?!
There's actually a girl inside
Tuiguan Zhang was a little dazed and shocked for a moment, but he quickly calmed down - so many things had happened in the past few days that he was now a little numb.
A girl who could come out alone must be of extraordinary status. He did not dare to take it lightly. He walked in nervously and took a few steps. Then he stood in front of the screen and dared not move or look around. He just stood still and called out "girl" in a low voice.
Su Yao raised his eyebrows, signaled Ruan Xiaojiu to remove the screen, and responded with a serious expression: "Master Zhang."
Zhang Tuiguan looked up and saw her. He could not help but be stunned. His first reaction was that this girl was too pretty. But he reacted immediately, lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Excuse me, young lady. Since you sent someone to invite me, you must know my current situation. It is not appropriate to call me sir. I am afraid that I will not be able to keep my official position in a short time."
"Yes." Su Yao sighed, "I heard that too. Lord Zhang hates evil, but he implicated his family. It's really sad."
When this matter was mentioned, Zhang Tuiguan's face became even uglier, and then he simply looked at Su Yao and said, "Since the young lady knows so much, she must not be an ordinary person. I wonder what advice the young lady has for calling me here?"
People were rubbing shoulders with each other on the street downstairs. Su Yao closed the window calmly, smiled gently and looked at Zhang Tuiguan: "I don't have any advice. It just happened that I was in the same situation as Zhang Tuiguan, so I couldn't bear to see the Xu family being so arrogant. Zhang Tuiguan, do you have the interest to avenge this arrow?"
Zhang Tuiguan looked at the young girl in front of him with suspicion: "How do you report it?"
The other party is the Second Prime Minister. Even Lord Sun was forced to withdraw from the cabinet. Even the identity of the girl in front of him should be extraordinary, but how can she fight with Second Prime Minister Xu
Seeing Zhang Tuiguan's doubts, Su Yao didn't want to keep him in suspense any longer, so he lowered his eyes and poured him a cup of tea: "Master Zhang is smart and clever, so you must know that the trouble with Lord Sun was all caused by the Xu family, right?"
Zhang Tuiguan immediately understood what Su Yao meant. He was sure that Su Yao was indeed a prominent figure, but he was also a little frustrated. "That's true, but even if it's Elder Sun, for a lowly official like me, he's still an unreachable peak. How can I expect him to condescend to ask about my affairs?"
"No." Su Yao was calm and composed. He looked at Zhang Tuiguan with a smile and said softly, "Don't worry, Master Zhang. He will definitely help you and will definitely be happy to intervene in this matter."
Somehow, Zhang Tuiguan inexplicably believed that Su Yao really had such ability. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then made up his mind and bowed to Su Yao: "Please teach me, young lady."
Su Yao smiled with satisfaction.
Not long after, Ruan Xiaojiu saw Zhang Tuiguan off through the back door with ease, and then went upstairs again. Seeing Su Yao had also stood up and was looking at Zhang Tuiguan's back at the window, she asked in confusion: "Miss, you went through so much trouble to arrange this matter, is it really useful?"
But the body had already turned to bones. It was just a pile of bones. Even if an autopsy was performed, what could be found out
Even though Magistrate Zhang and Aunt Shen are involved now, the evidence is too weak and the Xu family can simply deny the charges.
He was afraid that his girl's efforts would be in vain this time.
Su Yao smiled but said nothing.
It won’t be useless. For politicians, why do they need solid evidence in many cases
She just wanted to see how long Qi Yunxi could keep his fox tail hidden.
It was almost dark when I got home. Liujie was waiting at the second gate. This was also Su Yao's order. He asked him to live with Uncle Jian and the others in the front yard so that it would be convenient for him to reply.
Seeing Su Yao, Liu Jie couldn't help but smile. He trotted forward and called the county lady. He whispered to Su Yao, "Miss, I've done everything as you said. Grandma Xu already knows about Young Master Xu's being out there. I've also made arrangements with Deng Jidong. When Grandma Xu comes over, she'll catch him red-handed."
"Very good." Su Yao's smile deepened. "That's even better. Liu Jie, go again and tell Zhang Tuiguan the news. He will know what to do."
Liu Jie had already learned about Zhang Tui Guan from Ruan Xiaojiu. After hearing what Su Yao said, he went to do the job without saying a word.
Su Yao finally had some free time.
Mother Shen had been waiting for her for a long time. When she saw her come in, she sighed with distress and worry, stepped forward to take her cloak, and said worriedly: "Young girl, you keep running outside all day long. What are you busy with?"
Not to mention that Wang Yuerong is about to marry in, even Su Xingtian is about to get engaged. On the contrary, Su Yao still has no news about his marriage.
Although Su Yao is capable, there are many men in this world who are incompetent and think their wives are too capable.
Mother Shen was really worried about Su Yao. She was afraid that if Su Yao continued like this, no one would care about him anymore.
Su Yao could tell what she was worried about and couldn't help but shook her head slightly: "What are you worried about, Mom? I don't want to get married."
Mother Shen opened her eyes wide, and was almost frightened to scream by her words. After a long while, she stammered and scolded: "Girl, what childish words are you talking about? Where in the world would a girl not get married and have a family? Unless she wants to be a nun!"
She interrupted Su Yao hastily: "Please don't say these words anymore. If my wife and the old lady heard it, I'm afraid they would be so worried!"
She said that she was actually the most worried.
Su Yao is so strong-willed and stubborn, but she is also really capable and resourceful. I wonder what kind of man she will be matched with in the future.
But now, she couldn't follow Su Yao's words. Mother Shen hurriedly changed the subject, fearing that Su Yao's mind of not wanting to get married would be aroused even more: "Girl, Miss Yu Xia from the old lady's room just came. She said that our in-laws came and asked when you would be back, and asked you to come over."
Su Yao had already changed her clothes.
