Jade Without Fragrance

   Chapter 174 Visitors

  Cheng Maoming readily agreed. As early as Qi Shuo expected, he gave a well-planned speech: "No need to do anything else, if it's not troublesome, the treatment will be better in terms of food and housing, and it's better not to let him run away."

   The strangeness in Cheng Maoming's eyes could hardly be concealed.

   This must be a woman who is involved with Prince Jing. After Prince Jing got married, he couldn't get rid of it. He actually thought of putting people in Jinlinwei. I have to say that Prince Jing behaves differently from ordinary people.

   "No trouble, no trouble." Cheng Maoming showed an understanding expression.

  Qi Shuo thought the other party looked weird, but he still smiled and thanked: "Thank you, Great Governor. Then I'll let the guards at home bring the people."

   "No problem. How long does the prince want to keep people locked up?"

   "Close it first, wait until he understands it."

  Cheng Maoming nodded: "Okay. You can rest assured, I will constrain my subordinates to keep their mouths shut."

  Qi Shuo thanked again and returned to Prince Jing's mansion.

  Du Qing heard the footsteps outside the door, and his eyes showed vigilance.

   He has been in this airtight room for the past few days, and he doesn't care about the rest of the time except when someone brings food and drinks on time. Long periods of no sound and no communication can drive people crazy.

   This time is not the time to deliver meals, who is here?

   As he was thinking, the door creaked open, and a tall young man walked in.

  Du Qing's eyes tightened.

   is Prince Jing!

   He stared at Qi Shuo a few steps and approached without making a sound.

   "I'll change your place today." Qi Shuo's tone was easy-going, as if gossip was commonplace.

  Du Qing looked at him and saw only calmness on that young face.

   He thought, this is really not like a little prince raised by gold and jade.

   "What do you want?" Du Qing asked after a brief silence.

   Since the other party believed that he was going to hurt Lin Er girl, why did he leave him here and ignore him, instead of giving him a good time.

   Qi Shuo smiled: "I didn't say it, I'll change your place."

   It is difficult for him to have a good attitude towards those who have the intention to hurt Lin Hao. This smile has no warmth, and it becomes more and more unpredictable in Du Qing's eyes.

   "Take it away." Following Qi Shuo's order, two young guards quickly walked in and took Du Qing out.

The    carriage stopped at the Moon Gate, he was stuffed into the carriage and sent directly to Jinlinwei.

  Cheng Maoming has been waiting for a long time.

   Originally, he didn't have to show up for such trivial matters as personal, but he couldn't stop his curiosity.

   He wanted to see what the woman who made Prince Jing's son so annoying looked like.

   "Are you here?" Cheng Maoming went to the place where Du Qing was being held.

  It was not a dark cell, but more like an ordinary guest room. There are many rooms in Jinlinwei, which are mainly used to detain some people with identities who have not yet been convicted.

   Seeing Cheng Maoming coming in, his subordinates saluted.

   "Great Governor."

   Cheng Maoming turned a deaf ear to these greetings, his eyes glued to Du Qing's face.

  Yes, a man?

   Still can't believe what he saw, he looked left and right: "Is this the one sent by Prince Jing?"

   After getting the affirmative answer from his subordinates, Cheng Maoming looked even weirder.

   "Great Governor—"

  Cheng Maoming returned to his senses, his face returned to seriousness: "Don't starve people, and don't let them escape."

"Yes."

  Cheng Maoming took a deep look at Du Qing again and turned to leave.

  It was night, but there was movement in a lifeless abandoned house. Several people gathered in the hall to discuss matters, and there was only a lamp like soybean oil on the surrounding table.

   "The latest news is that Du Touer is no longer in Prince Jing's mansion and has been sent to Jinlinwei." A man with a scar at the corner of his eye whispered.

   The expressions of the other people were not very good.

   "I didn't expect Prince Jing to be so cunning and play cards out of common sense!"

   "Yeah, I wasted a few days of setting up the spot."

   In the past few days, they stopped other things and circled around Jingwang's mansion, intent on saving Du Qing, but they did nothing.

   "This Prince Jing, look for opportunities to make him look good!"

  Scar glanced at the person who was speaking: "Don't worry about it any more, it will make Du Du'er fall into trouble. Do you think it is easy to trouble the Prince Jing? The most important thing now is to save Du Du'er."

   "That's hard. Jin Linwei's cell is like an iron wall. Besides, once we take action, it will fall into Jin Linwei's eyes, and it will be even more difficult to act in the future."

   Several people were silent.

  Jin Linwei is doing the job of searching and investigating. It is too late for them to hide, and they go to the prison to attract Jin Linwei's attention, and they will be in trouble in the future.

   After a long time, someone tentatively suggested: "How about... wait for a chance to see it again?"

   "That's the only way." Others agreed one after another.

  The lights of Rudou went out, and the hall fell into darkness. A few people quietly left the abandoned house in the moonlight and scattered in all directions.

  The main streets of the capital have increased the number of sweeps, and the roads paved with bluestone are always bright, especially Jinxiu Street, even the flowers and trees on both sides are beautifully trimmed.

  The meaning of the imperial court is very clear, to show the envoy of Yuliu a prosperous Dazhou capital.

   This is not just a good face, but an alternative deterrent.

   Whether it is an individual or a country, Mu Qiang's psychology is inevitable. The Yuliu people recognize the prosperity of Dazhou, and they will be more cautious between Dazhou and Daqi.

  The time has entered the early summer, and finally it is the day when the envoy of Yuliu enters Beijing.

  Many people crowded the streets to watch, including Qi Shuo and Lin Hao.

  After the two got engaged, they finally had a fair date.

   "There are a lot of people, do you want to go to the teahouse to see?" Qi Shuo pointed to the opposite teahouse.

   The second floor of the restaurant facing the street has been booked for a long time, so that it is convenient to watch the excitement from a high place, and one of them is reserved by Qi Shuo.

   "No, it's interesting to see it this way." Lin Hao stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction of the city gate.

   Qi Shuo was laughed at by her eagerness to watch the fun.

   was surrounded by people, laughing and screaming endlessly, he quietly held the soft weed.

  Lin Hao took a quick look at him and whispered, "Let others see it!"

   "Everyone else is watching Yuliu coming to make an envoy." Qi Shuo didn't change his face, he didn't let go.

  Lin Hao looked down at the hands that were held together and covered by his sleeves, pursed his lips, and had no choice but to go with him.

  It was only after the engagement that I found out that Prince Jing is very thick-skinned!

   "Come, come!" Cheers sounded, and the crowd was a little commotion.

   Qi Shuo turned sideways to block the crowd and looked there.

  A team in jade costumes came from the direction of the city gate. The team was very long, with horses, walks, and carriages.

   The two carriages in the center are drawn by four horses. The horses have the same hair color and are very powerful. You don't have to think about it to know that the two people who are sitting in the two carriages are the two highest-ranking envoys.

   Qi Shuo said in Lin Hao's ear, "I heard that there is a prince in the envoy of Yuliu this time."

   The carriage walking in front had the curtains rolled up on both sides. Because of the slow speed, a young man could be clearly seen inside.

  Lin Hao lost interest after one glance, and looked at the tightly covered carriage.
