It was embroidered with silver silk patterns, which spread from the neckline to the cuffs; complicated and delicate.This gentle color made Chi Jingxi's handsome face look much softer. At first glance, it made it seem as if he had a faint smile.Wen Yantong's eyes lit up. She waved her hands and shouted, "Little Marquis! Little Marquis! Why are you guys here? What a coincidence!"As she spoke, she walked towards them as she bumped into the guards that surrounded her and said with a smile, "Is it because it's a rest day tomorrow, so you are playing outside?"Mu Yang shook his head and grinned. "Were definitely not playing as well as you! I really couldnt tell, Wen Yantong. I didn't expect you to have this kind of taste!"Wen Yantongs first reaction was doubt, but then she suddenly realized that she was still holding the cloth that she had just torn off from the female brothel keeper. She quickly threw it aside with great disgust. "Its a misunderstanding! I can explain."Fu Zixian had a great fall just now, so when he limped over, he looked a little crippled. He asked Wen Yantong, "What exactly happened?"Wen Yantong turned to Chi Jingxi, pointed at the old brothel keeper, and complained, "Little Marquis, take a look at this! Right under the foot of the Emperor, right in the middle of the imperial city, this woman dared to blatantly bully me as a lame man and robbed me of my money! She also threatened to break my other leg! She is simply disregarding the Emperors rule!"The brothel keeper had already started to panic when she heard Wen Yantong calling the Little Marquis. Although she usually would not have the chance to meet this famous Little Marquise, these two people were dressed in luxurious clothes. Along with an extraordinary temperament, she could tell they were not just ordinary citizens.Moreover, they had guards with sharp swords following behind them.The brothel keeper was used to seeing many kinds of people, so her eyes were very accurate. When she saw Wen Yantong, she correctly guessed that she was, at most, the child of a wealthy family. The brothel keeper could also tell that she was not affiliated with the powerful, which was why she dared to have Wen Yantong surrounded. However, no matter what she thought, the brothel keeper would have never considered that this person had some connection with the Little Marquis!This time she really hit a hornet's nest. She was in big trouble!The old brothel keeper broke out in cold sweat. She hurriedly explained with a smile, "Its as the gongzi said. It's all a misunderstanding. I just wanted to stay with you for a while longer. My choice of actions may have been wrong, so you misunderstood."Wen Yantong snorted coldly. "That's not what you said just now."She quietly pulled Chi Jingxi's sleeve and whispered, "Little Marquis, I have found out who is the murderer of the rooster, but the evidence is in this woman's hands..."Chi Jingxi's eyes were as dark as ink. He looked at the brothel keeper, who committed a faux pas, and commanded, "Arrest and escort her to the authorities."The guards behind him immediately stepped forward and directly detained both the guards and the brothel keeper. The brothel keeper, who was so arrogant just now, knelt on the ground and cried, "Little Marquis, have mercy! I won't dare to do it again!"Chi Jingxi was unmoved. His eyes reflected his indifference. "This one doesn't want your life, so why beg for mercy?"The brothel keeper sobbed and slapped herself. "Its all my fault! Its all my fault! Magnanimous Little Marquis, please don't send me to the authorities! Please give me a way to live!"Qin Mo was an old establishment in Chaoge, but this brothel keeper was newly hired. If the brothel owner knew that she had provoked Chi Jingxi, even if she was proven to be innocent by the authorities, this woman would be immediately kicked out of the Qin Mo.It's just that after a woman is sent to the authorities, there would be a permanent record. If her foundation was unclean, it would be difficult for her to even find a husband in the future.And more importantly, if Chi Jingxi was the one who sent them in, it was estimated that the implicated would not be able to come out of prison at least for a year and a half.Wen Yantong understood this. No wonder this old brothel keeper was crying so violently. She must be terrified of being locked in a cell. Seeing that the brothel keeper was begging and begging out of her wits, Wen Yantong deliberately cleared her throat to remind her.The brothel keeper was very clear-headed and immediately understood that Wen Yantong was the source of the disaster. Thus, she hurriedly begged her, "This gongzi, I will give you everything you asked for before! Please help this lowly one and ask the Little Marquis for leniency."Wen Yantong was overjoyed. She turned to Chi Jingxi and whispered, "Little Marquis, she just said shell hand over the item. Why don't we take the item first and then send her to the authorities."Mu Yang was right next to them and heard her words. He was very surprised and couldn't help but sigh. "Youre such a bad person."Wen Yantong glared at him and said in a low voice, "What? I didn't agree with her when she asked me to ask Little Marquis for leniency. If she dared to bully people like this, then she should be properly investigated."Chi Jingxi nodded. "Take it out."The brothel keeper hurriedly took out a large number of silver bills from her sleeves and then handed them all to one of Chi Jingxis guards, "This is everything."The guard handed over the banknotes, and Wen Yantong took them. She looked through them one by one and finally found a bank note with "Wu Residences Deposit" stamped in the lower right corner.She sorted through the stack several times. There was only one bill, so she showed it to the brothel keeper. "Is it this one?"The brothel keeper took a closer look. "Yes! It was Surname Wu's banknote!"Wen Yantong gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "What a good Wu Yutian. It really was you!"Seeing that she had found the banknote, Chi Jingxi said, "Take her away."The brothel keeper was dumbfounded. She struggled and shouted, "Wait! Didn't you say you would help me?! I already gave you the item!"Wen Yantong pretended to be helpless and shrugged. "I've already begged for your mercy, but the Little Marquis is strictly impartial and incorruptible. As such, he didn't accept my request. You can just go in peace."pure tl . com is the original tler / dont re-post
