Chapter 422: Zhao Chengwen

Some of the children waiting at the Yamen were already sleepy, squatting on the ground and dozing off.

"Brother, can you bring us something to let these children sleep for a while?" Murong Yue asked the yamen servant.

The yamen servant looked at the children, nodded and said, "Wait, I'll see if I can get some quilts."

"Okay, thank you." Murong Yue nodded in thanks.

After a while, the yamen servant returned again, holding two quilts in his hands. Behind him was another yamen servant, also holding two quilts in his hands.

Murong Yue and An Yi went up to help spread the quilt, two quilts were placed on the ground, and two beds were used for covering.

As a result, the originally solemn Yamen lobby turned into a place where a dozen children were playing on the floor.

When Zhao Chengwen came out, what he saw was a group of children lying side by side on the ground, sleeping soundly. There was no sign of fear or crying at all.

Seeing this, Zhao Chengwen stopped the government servant who came with him and asked him not to speak loudly.

The yamen officer understood what he meant and lowered his voice and said to him: "Sir, it was this girl and this man who sent these children here."

Zhao Chengwen looked very familiar to Murong Yue, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

After all, Murong Yue didn't look like this when she broke off the relationship. The difference between before and after was so big that it's normal that she can't remember it.

Murong Yue and An Yi naturally also met Zhao Chengwen.

The two walked towards him.

"A common girl has seen the Lord."

"Girl, have we met somewhere?"

If it were anyone else, Murong Yue would definitely disdain him.

But this man is Zhao Chengwen, a rare honest official, so Murong Yue will naturally not be like that.

"My lord, you have a good memory. The last time we three brothers and sisters broke up, thanks to your kindness, otherwise it would have taken a month for my brother to get out of bed!"

When she said this, Zhao Chengwen immediately thought of the three brothers and sisters who were fighting to get slapped in the court a few months ago.

"It turns out to be Miss Murong. It seems that you three brothers and sisters are doing well."

Look, Murong Yue is not on the same level now as she was a few months ago. This change is also huge.

"Thank you, sir. Let's talk about these children first!"

When Zhao Chengwen heard about the children, he immediately said seriously to Murong Yue, "Then let's go to the next room to talk! So as not to disturb the children while they are sleeping."

Murong Yue naturally nodded in agreement.

"Where did the girl rescue these children?" Zhao Chengwen asked as soon as he sat down.

Murong Yue simply told him what happened.

Zhao Chengwen was very angry after hearing this.

"I would like to trouble you two to go to a brothel with me and be a witness."

Murong Yue nodded: "Of course."

So, before dawn, a group of officials surrounded all the exits of the brothel.

"Irrelevant people, please leave quickly." The leading officer led several of his men in to clear out the people.

However, after An Yi's fire, the brothel that was originally full of customers was reduced to less than half of the people.

At this time, less than half of the people remaining were also driven away.

The rest are naturally people from the brothel.

At this time, everyone looked at the official who suddenly rushed in with fear, not knowing what happened.

Only a few insiders knew about Hong Jiuniang's abduction and trafficking of children.

Hong Jiuniang walked forward anxiously and said to Zhao Chengwen: "Master Zhao, what kind of wind brings you here?"

Zhao Chengwen looked at the corner room on the second floor. The fire was extinguished, but before he could deal with it, the door and windows were burned black.

"What's going on?" Zhao Chengwen asked.

Hong Jiuniang naturally did not dare to say that the person who saved the child was burned.

"Haha! Isn't this the new maid who is clumsy! She accidentally knocked over the candlestick. Fortunately, it didn't cause a big disaster. I don't know who is short-sighted enough to tell you, sir, and bother me to do it yourself.

."

Zhao Chengwen didn't want to make any detours with her here.

"Hong Jiuniang, do you recognize these two people?"

Murong Yue and An Yi walked out from behind.

When Hong Jiuniang saw the two of them, her expression changed drastically.

He immediately shook his head: "No...I don't know."

Murong Yue was currently dressed as a woman. On the way to find Xiao Qi and the others, she took the time to enter the space to change into it.

But even so, Hong Jiuniang recognized An Yi beside her.

"Hong Jiuniang has a really bad memory. How long have we been away for?" Murong Yue looked at Hong Jiuniang with a half-smile.

"The girl is so beautiful. I, Hong Jiuniang, will naturally remember everything she has seen. But in my little brothel, besides my girls, all the people here are big men. How come when it comes to the girl's mouth, she becomes a gangster?"

Did you leave soon?"

Hong Jiuniang was not a good person, so she immediately fought back.

Murong Yue didn't panic and said with a smile, "You don't know me like this, but you must have met this friend next to me, right?"

Hong Jiuniang snorted coldly: "Humph! So what if I've seen them before, so what if I haven't seen them before? There are men who come here every day because of their fame. I can't remember everyone, right?"

"Hong Jiuniang, stop talking nonsense. I now suspect you of abducting children. Witnesses and physical evidence are gathered. Now come with me."

"Someone, bring Hong Jiuniang with you."

Zhao Chengwen also didn't like people who were procrastinating, so he immediately ordered Hong Jiuniang to be escorted to the Yamen for interrogation.

"Sir, I have been wronged."
