Chapter 288 Du Heng's Industry

When everyone was seated, Du Heng spoke first with cold eyes.

"I don't know what Master Xu called the little girl to come here today. I can't leave the house for too long, lest my father will scold me."

Her expression was indifferent, with an awe-inspiring and inviolable meaning.He brought out his father and calmly put pressure on Xu Zhifu.

Prefect Xu's smile remained unchanged, and said: "Miss Du is invited today because of a case that happened in the capital yesterday..."

Having said this, he paused.

Du Heng had already guessed before he came that the patrol mansion must be looking for her because of what happened yesterday.

She asked back calmly: "I have been going out occasionally these days, but I have always been with me. Mr. Lin knows about it. What does the case in the capital have to do with me?"

As he spoke, Du Heng glanced at Lin Roe with his beautiful eyes, and then turned his gaze back.

The meaning is obvious - she usually doesn't go out, and even when she goes out, she stays with Lin Rong.

After saying this, where will Yao Shu be placed?Those who didn't know, thought she was with Lin Rong every day!
Lin Rong was not good at words, and he couldn't hear the hidden meaning in other people's words, but Yao Chao smiled and nodded: "Miss Du's words are true. Miss Du did come to Xie's Mansion yesterday, and she helped Ah Rong to see it together. We have left the house, and we all know about it."

Prefect Xu nodded.

He ignored the turmoil between the few people, and said to Du Heng: "Miss Du, don't worry. It's just that the officer inspected the thief's body yesterday and found out that this person is related to the Changfeng Escort Bureau in the capital—if I remember correctly If so, Ms. Du was almost trapped by this bodyguard?"

Seeing Du Heng nodding his head, Prefect Xu changed the subject and asked: "Miss Du once entrusted an escort agency to protect the safety of your master and servants? I wonder if you can ask me a few more questions?"

As early as yesterday, Du Heng knew that the two had kidnapped Lin Rong's children, so he had already planned how to get out of this matter.

She nodded slightly, and said: "It is true. My father forbids me to mention this outside, but since Mr. Xu asked about it, the little girl naturally knows everything."

Prefect Xu asked: "If Miss Du hadn't been out of trust, she would not have entrusted her safety to the Changfeng Escort. I just don't know how Miss Du got involved with this Escort?"

Du Heng's eyes were flat, as if he was talking about something unrelated to him, and said lightly: "My mother left me some properties when she passed away, and this bodyguard agency is one of them."

The Changfeng Escort Bureau is actually Du Heng's property? !
Everyone's hearts froze, and Yao Chao frowned even more—but Yao Shu felt that even if he did something, Du Heng would not admit it so foolishly.

Sure enough, seeing her change the subject, she said: "It's just that when my mother passed away, I was still young, and most of the property around me was left to my servants left by my mother to take care of it. The business of this escort agency is not good, and it has been handed over to me a few years ago. others."

Xu Zhifu then asked: "Who did Miss Du transfer to?"

Du Heng shook his head, straightened his back, and said loftily: "I never touch this matter. If my lord wants to know, I can call my servants to come and answer."

Prefect Xu smiled and let go of this topic.

Call her servants for questioning?Calling Du Heng here for questioning today is already hiding the truth from Du Shangshu. If Lord Shangshu knows how to mobilize teachers and mobilize people like this, it will be a hindrance to Shangshufu's face.

Although Yao Chao and Lin Rong were not officials in the capital, they more or less understood the twists and turns. Seeing that Xu Zhifu was extra cautious when questioning, they didn't say much.

Prefect Xu asked a few more questions, but Du Heng turned them back speciously. She just shied away and didn't know anything about the Changfeng Escort.

In the end, he found nothing.

Before everyone could react, Du Heng took the lead in launching the attack, his beautiful eyes swept over everyone, and said with a cold face: "My father is low-key by nature, but he is also a member of the imperial court after all. As the daughter of the Du family, I was treated as a daughter by you today." Are you here for interrogation as a prisoner?"

Xu Zhifu smiled wryly and said: "Miss Du's words are serious."

After all, Du Heng came from a wealthy family, which made it difficult for ordinary people.

Yao Chao's expression was warm, and he said kindly: "In the past, I had a relationship with Miss Du in Qingtong Town. This time in the palace, thanks to Miss Du's help, the case between me and A'radi went very smoothly. The case of the Town God's Temple yesterday, Mr. Zhifu Considering that the girl is also a victim of the Changfeng Escort, I asked the girl to come over and ask for clues. It has no other intention."

His words were sincere, and even Du Heng, who had been keeping a cold face, couldn't get angry anymore.

She only pointed the finger at Yao Shu, and said indifferently: "Luckily, what happened yesterday was safe, and the little girl is relieved. It's just that when Miss Yao is angry with Mr. Lin in the future, she must never take the child with her. After all, children are innocent."

Childish and innocent?She also has the nerve to say the words childish and innocent? !

Yao Shu's eyes were filled with coldness, and he looked at Du Heng without showing any weakness, and said: "Miss Du, the private affairs of our husband and wife seem to be outside the scope of today's discussion."

The corners of Du Heng's lips were slightly pursed, and his brows were furrowed: "But this matter is not just a private matter of the two of you. I came here today to help you all. I just go in and out of the yamen, and I'm afraid my reputation will be hindered."

Yao Shu's eyes turned cold.

She was about to speak, but the right hand on her knee was gently grasped by Lin Roe.

There was no unnecessary expression on the man's sharp-edged face, and he said to Du Heng seriously: "Miss Du may not come today."

Lin Rong's words forcefully suppressed everything Du Heng wanted to say.

There was an unbelievable expression in her eyes, perhaps she was too surprised, she didn't even have time to hide it, and she showed it directly in front of everyone.

"Mr. Lin, what do you mean?" Du Heng heard that his voice trembled a little.

Lin Zhi frowned slightly, not wanting to get entangled in this issue.

He looked directly into Du Heng's eyes and said to her: "Yesterday's incident was extremely thrilling. Fortunately, Ashu was strong and brave enough to keep her and the child safe. Miss Du, please don't get confused. If Miss Du wants to leave, please go ahead." Bar."

Prefect Xu is in a bad mood——

This Lin Zhi is really young and energetic, how can he speak without showing any sympathy?
If you really offend this young lady, once you sue the Lord Shangshu, or even the imperial concubine in the palace, how can they not be punished?
Xu Zhifu was trying to find a way to get around, but he saw that Du Heng's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears seemed to appear in his eyes, and he was a little dumbfounded.

"Mr. Lin! You, you...!" She stood up, raised her slender fingers slightly, trembling, and pointed at Lin Rong.

The latter was unaware of Du Heng's intense mood, but frowned slightly, waiting for Du Heng's next words

She still didn't say anything in the end, suppressing the sourness in her heart, and said forcefully: "Farewell!"

Du Heng walked out of this place that made her feel humiliated, holding up her skirt, walking faster and faster, and when she reached the gate of the yamen, she almost lost her composure.

A Su stood by and saw the look on her young lady's face, she couldn't help being a little dumbfounded: "Small, young lady! What's going on here?"

Du Heng held back his tears, and said coldly: "Go back to the house!"

When she got into the carriage, the tears finally couldn't be held back, and fell down in a flutter.

In her previous life, she had been by his side for so many years, and she understood the emotion behind every frown on his brow, and knew the reason behind every cold face of his.

But he never saw her existence.

Du Heng originally thought that in this new life, she would at least be able to talk to him and stay by his side openly...

Unexpectedly——Lin Roe would be like this, facing her with the attitude of facing a stranger...

Do not!He is obviously tired of her!
But yesterday was fine, and yesterday they went to see the house together...

Du Heng choked up silently, his delicate nails pinched into the flesh, but he couldn't feel the pain.

It's all Yao Shu, everything is caused by Yao Shu...

If it wasn't for her, Lin Zhi wouldn't have treated her like this!

Yao Shu shouldn't be alive. In her last life, she obviously died of dystocia!

Du Heng's originally clear eyes were slowly eroded by negative emotions, and the dark clouds could not go away.
