After listening to my voice, the villain became addicted to the plot

Chapter 28 Who told you that I left the palace privately?
Zhou Quan stroked his beard, not feeling ashamed at all, with a smile on his face, "I just helped a few girls. They are willing to stay in the house. I care that they are all weak women, so I just keep them in the house to work." .”

Cheng Jin felt a chill even just hearing the hypocritical lies.

It sounds nice.

What is helping them?What do they do voluntarily?Keep them in the house to work?
Zhou Quan didn't say anything, but no one in the capital knew that Zhou Quan was followed by young girls in their late teens, and a few of them were willing.

The ones he liked that were of high status were kept in the backyard and became concubines, but those who were not famous and had no status were kept outside the city.

This outer room is enough to make people feel shameless, and it is so thoughtful. At best, it is an outer room, but at worst, it is no different from that brothel.

With Cheng Yishou's temperament, Zhou Quan must have done such a thing. Cheng Yishou probably caught Zhou Quan's story of robbing civilian girls and raising many foreign wives. Cheng Yishou found out the clues and seized the handle, which made Zhou Quansheng do it. He took action to detain Cheng Yishou in the mansion.

Zhou Quan did not dare to act rashly against Cheng Yishou, probably because he was afraid that the evidence in Cheng Yishou's hands would be spread out.

Cheng Jin stopped walking, glanced at Zhou Quan, and pointed to a pavilion in the mansion, "I just stood outside for so long, and my feet are very sore. I need to take a rest. Don't you, Mr. Zhou?" You’ll mind.”

Not sure what Cheng Jin was up to, Zhou Quan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Of course, it was the lower official's fault for making the empress wait so long."

Cheng Jin nodded slightly and took out a handkerchief to wipe the unnecessary sweat. Suddenly, she touched her waist and exclaimed: "Oh, no, where is the jade pendant that the emperor gave me?"

Cheng Jin stood up and looked at the road ahead, but his eyes were fixed on Zhou Quan.

"This thing was given by the emperor himself. If it were left here, the emperor would not be blamed. I would like to trouble Mr. Zhou to help me look for it."

Zhou Quan didn't know whether Cheng Jin had lost the jade pendant.

It's okay that it wasn't lost, but if it was really lost and picked up by some unsighted servant in the palace, and took the things given by the emperor, the emperor would blame it even if it wasn't for Cheng Jin.

It was thrown into his house, and he himself could not escape the blame.

Zhou Quan lowered his head and pretended to smile in a relaxed manner, and the sweat that he had just wiped fell again. "It's not a trouble. I will arrange for someone to look for it right now."

When Zhou Quan turned around and asked Zhang Luo Jia Ding to search with him, Cheng Jin deliberately raised his voice and said, "Cui Zhu, Ziying, you two, stop standing here and help Mr. Zhou search."

"Yes."

Cuizhu and Ziying immediately understood what Cheng Jin meant, agreed and left Cheng Jin's side.

Ziying and Cuizhu split into two groups. Cuizhu stood not far from Zhou Quan and looked at the ground, while Ziying took advantage of the chaos to sneak around and look for Cheng Yishou.

When Zhou Quan wanted to raise his head to see what Cheng Jin was doing, Cuizhu stood in front of Zhou Quan and interrupted:

"I'm sorry for bothering you so much. It's not a big deal if the jade pendant is lost, but it was given by the emperor. If you help us find it today, it will be a great help to our empress. When we return to the palace, we will naturally help you to report it to the emperor." A few kind words.”

Zhou Quan laughed dryly.

Cheng Jin's father is now being detained in his house. It's good enough that Cheng Jin doesn't think of ways to trip him up, but he still has a nice word in front of the emperor?

Humph, Zhou Quan snorted coldly in his heart. If Cheng Jin could really speak up in front of the emperor, it would be her turn to come to his house to find someone in person today. The emperor would probably send an imperial edict to his house. By then, He had to let him go obediently.

She went home to visit her relatives and was looking so shabby now. No one in the capital knew about it. If Zhou Quan hadn't met Cheng Jin, he would probably have just thought that Cheng Jin was fake.

There is no way that Cheng Jin can talk well in front of the emperor. I'm afraid the emperor doesn't even know her. Maybe he doesn't even know about her coming out of the palace to visit relatives.

Don't know.

Zhou Quan instantly understood that if the emperor really didn't know about Cheng Jin's visit to the palace, then everything would make sense.

If Cheng Jin secretly left the palace and told the emperor, Cheng Yishou would no longer be needed, and their family would suffer.

Thinking of this, Zhou Quan's face couldn't help but reveal joy.Not far away, Feng Chengjin didn't know what he was laughing at and curled his lips in disgust.

[Damn old man, how disgusting. 】

But when Zhou Quan looked up at her, she put on a smile and nodded.

[I really can’t pretend anymore, I really can’t pretend anymore. 】

[How old am I? You want me to suffer such a crime! 】

[I don’t know if Ziying succeeded. 】

Just as Cheng Jin was thinking this, she heard the sound of firecrackers outside the house, and she understood instantly.

Ziying took Cheng Yishou out.

Cheng Jin suppressed the smile in his heart and waved Cuizhu over.

Zhou Quan also knew that the sound of firecrackers was abnormal. He looked back and sure enough, the extremely beautiful maid disappeared at some point.

Zhou Quan was shocked, he was afraid that the maid had gone to find Cheng Yishou.

But now even though he was suspicious, he didn't know what to ask or what to say.

"Is there a happy event outside the house today?"

Cheng Jin stood up from his seat and pretended not to know.

Zhou Quan shook his head, "I don't know, why don't I ask my servant to take a look."

"It's okay. I'll go and have a look too. I'm happy."

"Where is your Majesty? Your Majesty comes to my house. You will be happy as an official in a ten-mile radius. Your Majesty is right here. I will send my servants to take a look."

Zhou Quan could see Cheng Jin's intention, but now Cheng Yishou was likely to be rescued. If Cheng Jin left safely now, he would have nothing to do with it.

Then he will lose this fight.

How could Zhou Quan let Cheng Jin go like this? He gritted his teeth and reached out to stop Cheng Jin.

"Please wait a moment, Madam."

Cuizhu immediately stepped forward, waved his hand, opened Zhou Quan, and yelled loudly: "Who are you? Stop our queen from going."

Now Cheng Jin is his chance to make a comeback, and he has a cunning smile on his face, "My Lady, now that you are in my house, please stop acting like you are in your prime."

Cheng Jin stared at him and said nothing.

"It's a capital crime for you to leave the palace privately this time, and it's an even higher crime for you to take Cheng Yishou away from my house."

After hearing Zhou Quan's remarks, Cheng Jin just felt like laughing in his heart.

"Mr. Zhou, it's unreasonable. My father was detained in your house for two days. Now, as your daughter, I come to your house to invite my father to come home. What crime do I have to do?"

"On the contrary, it is a heinous crime for your Excellency to detain my father in your house for no reason and to make my father suffer these days for no reason."

Cheng Jin looked at Zhou Quan's confident face, and the smile on his face deepened, "Also, who told you that I left the palace privately?"
