After Zhao Gangyan said this.
Xiao Ye followed the father and daughter and left the banquet hall directly.
Seeing the Zhao father and daughter leaving with Xiao Ye, everyone onlookers were dumbfounded again.
Originally, they were very happy to be invited to attend this banquet.
After all, the Longhu Chamber of Commerce is controlled by the big families in the provincial capital.
Being invited means that my family can still rank high in Jiangcheng.
But I didn't expect that a good banquet would turn into this in the blink of an eye.
At the moment, Ouyang Hao was knocked unconscious on the ground, that young master Murong from the provincial capital.
He even applied oil directly to the soles of his feet and slipped away.
This banquet is completely finished now.
Of course, at this moment, they also understood the theme of the banquet.
It was Mr. Murong from the provincial capital who wanted to stand up for the Ouyang family and organized it against the Zhao family.
Now that this is the situation, there is no need for them to stay here anymore.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a shout from the door.
"Ah, something really happened here. Oh, my son..."
Following this shout, a middle-aged man in his 50s appeared at the door.
The person who came was none other than Ouyang Hao's father, Ouyang Fei.
Just on the way here, he heard that something happened at the banquet hosted by their family.
Come here quickly and slowly.
Unexpectedly, he saw his unconscious son lying on the ground at a glance.
"Who on earth beat my son?"
Ouyang Fei's face was full of rage.
At this time, a middle-aged man quickly came to him and explained the whole story to him.
"What, what, something like this actually happened?"
Ouyang Fei stamped his foot angrily: "Okay, Zhao Gangyan, I didn't expect you to be so bold and dare to let your men beat Mr. Murong in the provincial capital."
"You fucking wait, if the Murong family in the provincial capital knows that Master Murong has suffered such a loss and been insulted like this, your Zhao family will be uprooted..."
…………
To the west of the city, the Zhao family manor.
Mrs. Zhao was also shocked when she received the news.
"What are you talking about? Is this painting a fake?"
"The Ouyang family, the families in the provincial capital, are targeting us because of this painting?"
Zhao Yasi nodded: "Grandma, don't worry. This is indeed the case." "
"How is it possible? The collection I auctioned before was bought at a large auction in Kyoto."
"At that time, there were national-level treasure appraisal experts on site, who had already appraised all the paintings for auction. How could they be fake?"
Xiao Ye, who was standing by, frowned when he heard Mrs. Zhao explain the whole story.
"Old madam, do you think there is a possibility, that is to say, that this "Spring Dawn in the Han Palace" has been stolen and replaced at home since you took it?"
"What, you said that someone used deceitful means to fake the real thing and exchange it for the real thing?"
Mrs. Zhao frowned, then shook her head firmly.
"Mr. Xiao, to be honest, our Zhao family has very strict rules."
"Besides, I keep this collection in a safe. If you want to talk about the possibility of someone tampering with it, I feel it is unique..."
"Old lady, so this painting has always been kept in the safe?"
Mrs. Zhao nodded: "That's right."
"Then if that's the case, do you think it's possible for one of our own people to take action?"
When Xiao Ye asked this question, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but was stunned.
"Mr. Xiao, what do you mean? Are you doubting my family?"
Xiao Ye nodded: "As the saying goes, it's hard to guard against a domestic thief. If someone does it yourself, it will be hard to guard against. After all, tigers also take a nap."
"This, how is this possible?"
The old lady's face was full of shock.
Zhao Yasi and Zhao Gangyan next to them also looked incredulous.
Xiao Ye could see the expressions on their faces.
"Old Madam, when I say this, I don't mean to provoke you at all."
"I feel like, for example, your second son, he can even try to seduce his older brother and throw him out."
"Then what else can he not do?"
When Xiao Ye mentioned Zhao Tiancheng, the old lady couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Mr. Xiao, you are right. If anyone wants to take action against this painting of mine, there is really no one except Zhao Tiancheng."
Zhao Yasi was surprised when she heard her grandma say these words.
"Grandma, how can you be so sure that he did it?"
Hearing her granddaughter's question, the old lady's eyes narrowed.
"This is because for a while, this second child came to my place frequently and had nothing to do. He just had nothing to do and stayed here for most of the day."
"If this thing hadn't happened and Mr. Xiao's reminder, I really wouldn't have been associated with this matter or him."
"Mr. Xiao was right what he said just now. This second son can do even more crazy things, let alone steal a painting..."
At first, Zhao Yasi was a little hesitant.
Then I thought about what my second uncle had done, and felt that only he could do such a despicable thing.
Thinking this in her heart, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"Grandma, if this is really the case, if he refuses to admit it, we won't be able to do anything to him."
Mrs. Zhao nodded.
"Granddaughter, you are right. I estimate that this matter will eventually become an unsolved case."
"Since Zhao Tiancheng has been kicked out of the family by me, and this matter is just our speculation without concrete evidence, we can only leave it alone."
After saying these words, she sighed deeply unwillingly.
"What a sin. I didn't expect that we would offend the Ouyang family because of this painting."
"And this Ouyang family has joined forces with the Dragon and Tiger Chamber of Commerce in the provincial capital to target our Zhao family..."
As she said this, her eyes fell on Xiao Ye.
Mrs. Zhao said with gratitude: "Mr. Xiao, what happened today is thanks to you."
"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my granddaughter would have been humiliated in public, and maybe even taken to the provincial capital by this evil young master Ouyang..."
The old lady thanked him, which surprised Xiao Ye.
"Old man, this is what I should do."
"You know, I am now a staff member of the Zhao Group, and Miss Zhao is paying me a salary."
"I can't just take money and do nothing. How can I be so embarrassed?
"Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry, you can't say that. Even if you take the money, you will lose your money at the critical moment."
"My gratitude just now is from the bottom of my heart. Please accept this card..."
