“I can handle this small matter for now. You guys should stay behind and help King Rui send the guests off.” Zhou Huaiming then stood up and walked out.
He could not let the two of them get too close to him and King Rui for now. Otherwise, they would also be in danger.
Gu Chengrui and Yang Zepeng looked at each other and got up to get busy.
Zhou Huaiming had found the camp of the patrolling soldiers in the eastern city and the old man and his granddaughter, who had been bullied.
Before he could speak, the girl knelt down and begged, “Please save us.”
“Please, get up. I’m here to deal with this matter.” After Zhou Huaiming finished speaking, he invited the two of them to sit down and asked, “Have you two eaten?”
“Yes, the officials here gave us a bowl of flour paste each,” the old man replied. New novel chapters are published on
“That’s great. Please, tell me what happened. Who were those people who threatened to sell your granddaughter?”
“The leader who captured us is called Brother Hu, and he’s someone who is in charge of giving out and collecting back tokens.”
“I’m sure. If I tell a lie, 1’11 be struck by lightning and die a horrible death.”
“Me too. Everything we said is true.”
“Alright, you two wait here for a while. I’ll be right back.” After Zhou Huaiming finished speaking, he went to look for the two people who had been caught earlier.
Ultimately, he was told that the two of them had run away.
After Zhou Huaiming heard this, he stared at the soldier in front of him with a sharp gaze and asked, “Are you sure they ran away on their own and not because you let them go?”
“General Zhou, they really ran away while we were eating.” The soldier replied in fear.
“Are you all good-for-nothings? It’s fine if you didn’t catch them all, but how could you lose the ones we caught? 1 think it’s time for you to remove your uniform.” Zhou Huaiming turned around and walked out immediately after. However, after taking two steps, he stopped and commanded, “What are you waiting for? Get your people to spread out and look for those people!”
“Yes, yes! 1’11 get right to it!” The soldier saluted and quickly ran off.
Zhou Huaiming sent the two victims back home, and at the same time, he had two subordinates temporarily protect their safety.
He turned around and went to the admiral’s office. He wanted to see who had the guts to dabble in the loan shark business in the capital.
Lord Yan saw Zhou Huaiming coming over in a huff and stood up in a daze.. “Nephew Zhou? Aren’t you accompanying the Third Prince in hosting the banquet?”
