Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 146

   Chapter 146 Guest

   Zhao Helin explained with a smile: "It turns out that Prince Jing is here with us, and the lower official also goes to say hello."

   Cheng Maoming's eyebrows moved, but he didn't say anything.

   No matter how unpleasant it is to work together, after all, he can't say that you are not allowed to say hello.

   Seeing Cheng Maoming speeding up with a calm face, Zhao Helin smiled indifferently.

   Hearing the footsteps, Cheng Shu immediately stood up: "Master Cheng is busy?"

  Cheng Maoming nodded slightly: "The two of you have been waiting for a long time."

  Qi Shuo put down the teacup and stood up: "It's getting late, Brother Cheng and I will stop bothering you."

   Zhao Helin said hello.

   Qi Shuo cast his gaze over, politely and distantly: "Master Zhao."

   "If I had known the prince was here, I would have come here earlier. I hope the prince is not to blame."

   "Master Zhao is too polite."

   Zhao Helin maintained his politeness and asked quietly, "I don't know why the prince is here?"

   Hearing his question, Cheng Maoming winked at Qi Shuo out of instinct.

  Qi Shuo didn't seem to notice, and said casually, "I came with a friend."

   Zhao Helin then focused on Cheng Shu: "This is—"

  Cheng Maoming said lightly, "Young Master Cheng Shu of the General's Mansion, he was on duty in the imperial city, has Zhao Tongzhi ever met him?"

   Zhao Helin smiled: "I haven't seen it before, Mr. Cheng is not on duty today, why do you have time to come to Jinlinwei for tea?"

   Cheng Shu glanced at Cheng Maoming with helplessness in his eyes.

   I haven't been called by you adults to drink tea.

  Cheng Maoming didn't want Zhao Helin to know his intention to invite Cheng Shu, so he said vaguely, "Mr. Cheng is concerned about the progress of the kidnapping of his sister, and came to ask about the situation."

   "So it is." Zhao Helin looked like he had no doubts.

   While talking, several people have already walked outside.

   Qi Shuo and Cheng Shu stopped and asked Cheng Maoming to stay.

   "Shizi and Cheng Gongzi take a slow walk, wait for the matter to be resolved another day, I'll invite you two to drink." Cheng Maoming expressed his gratitude euphemistically.

   Qi Shuo comforted: "Don't be in a hurry, Commander, maybe Cheng Shu suddenly remembered where he had seen the offender, and the origin of the offender will naturally be revealed by then."

  Cheng Maoming was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Zhao Helin subconsciously.

   There were traitors in Jin Linwei. He was a little suspicious of Zhao, and he didn't want to let the other party know about Cheng Shu's connection with the offender.

   "Young Master Cheng...Have you ever seen the culprit who kidnapped Miss Lin?" Zhao Helin looked at Cheng Shu in surprise.

  Cheng Shu smiled awkwardly, not wanting to say more: "It just looks familiar."

   "Oh." Zhao Helin's expression returned to normal, "Then Master Cheng should think about it."

   "Farewell." Qi Shuo cupped his hands.

  Cheng Shu also bowed his hands and turned away with Qi Shuo.

   Zhao Helin's eyes were heavy, and he landed on the two figures who left side by side.

  Cheng Shu glanced back unintentionally, and whispered: "Sir, did you notice that these two people are a little bit incompatible."

   "This is also normal, there will inevitably be friction between colleagues."

   Hearing Qi Shuo say this, Cheng Shu didn't think about it any more, and said a little distressed: "The two are going to commit death. Now they are waiting for me to think about it, and the pressure is too great."

   "Brother Cheng just let the flow take its course."

   The two of them didn't go very far, but a few people came towards them, headed by the steward of the General's House.

   Seeing Cheng Shu, the steward looked overjoyed: "Young Master, are you alright?"

  Cheng Shu smiled and said, "It's okay."

   "It's fine, it's fine. It's getting dark this day, the old lady and the wife are worried and sent the little boy to pick you up."

  Cheng Shu reached out and patted Qi Shuo: "Thanks to the prince to find me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have gone back so early."

   The head of the steward gave a long sigh: "The youngest thanked the prince for the old lady and wife."

   "Brother Cheng and I are friends, thank you for coming and going is too much."

  Cheng Shu was moved: "Yes, there is no need to talk about 'thank' among friends. If the prince has nothing to do, he will drink together at the General's Mansion in the evening."

   "Okay." Qi Shuo replied with a smile.

  Cheng Shu felt that Qi Shuo had lost his temper.

   Prince Jing is such a cheerful person!

   It didn't take long for a few people to arrive at the General's Mansion, and the gatekeepers of King Jing's Mansion watched their son enter the gate of the General's Mansion, and thought they were dazzled.

  Cheng Shu took Qi Shuo back to his residence, while the steward went to the main courtyard to report.

   "Oh, Shuer is drinking with Prince Jing?"

   Lin sighed: "I didn't expect Prince Jing to be so warmhearted. Mother, why don't I go over and say thank you?"

   In terms of seniority, she is an elder, but in terms of identity, she is not as good as the other party, especially if she is in trouble like Jin Linwei, she should thank her in person.

   "Prince Jing and Shu'er are both young people. It's more comfortable to drink together. Don't go there. On the contrary, Chan'er and Ah Hao experienced what happened yesterday, and they are not in good spirits today. Go and see the two children."

   "Then I'll take a look."

  Golden Crow fell to the west, the bright and thin sky had turned into a dignified blue, and the night was about to fall.

  The Jiaoyue Residence where Lin Chan lived was built adjacent to the Luoying Residence where Lin Hao lived. Lin hesitated and went to the eldest daughter first.

   Yesterday, as soon as the two daughters returned to the house, the doctor showed them. Ah Hao was fine, but Chan'er was frightened and her pulse was a little unstable.

  When Lin passed, he found out that Lin Hao was also living in Jiaoyue.

   "Why did Mother come here at this time?" Lin Chan was leaning against the head of the bed when she saw Lin came in and sat up straight.

   Lin pushed her back: "Let's lean on, how are you feeling now?"

   "Just a little tired, don't worry, mother."

   "That's not what the doctor said." Looking at Lin Chan's pale face, Lin Shi worriedly asked, "Did you not sleep well?"

   "It's okay." Lin Chan said this, but in fact, she had a nightmare all night, afraid that her mother and sister would be worried and dare not say it.

   "How's it going?"

  Lin Hao looked much better: "Don't worry, mother, I'm fine, I'm just concerned about the progress of the interrogation of the two prisoners at the government."

   These words immediately ignited the fire of Lin's gossip.

   "Yeah, I don't know how it's going. Your eldest brother went there early in the morning, but Jin Linwei came to the door in the afternoon and called him back again."

   "Going again? Did the big brother come back?"

  Lin Chan and Lin Hao immediately became nervous.

  Lin said with a smile: "I'm back, I'm drinking with Prince Jing at our house."

  Lin Hao was stunned for a while: "Drinking at our house...drinking?"

   "It was Prince Jing who went to Jinlinwei to bring your eldest brother back. I don't know when the two of them got so close." Lin Shi pursed his lips and smiled.

   "It turns out that Prince Jing and the eldest brother are on good terms." Lin Chan looked at Lin Hao with a smile, her eyes were meaningful.

After    came back, she was in a bad state, and she hadn't had time to "interrogate" her sister.

  Lin Hao suddenly got up: "I'll go to Big Brother's place."

   There must be a situation at Jinlinwei.

   Lin was startled: "They drink, what are you doing?"

   "Isn't mother curious about the situation of the two prisoners, I will ask the eldest brother and Prince Jing, so that the eldest brother will not say everything."

   Lin nodded.
