Minister Zhao ran away, to be precise, he fled.
After Song Qiyun said that he would teach his son for him, he did not even dare to be polite to Song Qiyun. Without even saying "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work," he turned around and ran away with his servants. He was so fast that everyone present was shocked. Didn't even react.
By the time everyone recovered from the shock, Minister Zhao had already disappeared without a trace.
Zhao Kai never expected that his father would actually do something like this. He turned around and ran away without saying a word. He didn't even have time to look at him. He didn't know whether he should cry or laugh, so he could only stare at his kiss in shock. Dad ran further and further away until no one could be seen.
In fact, Minister Zhao didn't want to do this, and he had his own reasons.
Since the Chi family was ransacked, those who are close to the Chi family have been closely monitored by people from the imperial army and the patrol camp. There are always strange people staring at them outside the mansion and government offices. As a person promoted by Chi Ge Lao Yi, and as a close friend of Chi Er, Zhao Shilang was given special attention.
In the past two days, Minister Zhao had a very bad life. Every day he was like an ant on a hot pot, restless, and his whole person was in a state of extreme anxiety and panic. He has been thinking about whether he has been tricked by the Chi family and Chi Er during the years of dating, and whether he has leaked any information that should not be leaked without his knowledge. Fortunately, the Ministry of Etiquette where he worked did not have much work all year round, let alone any information that they could use, and basically made no mistakes.
Even so, Minister Zhao was still in a state of anxiety, thinking about how he could truly distance himself from the Chi family. But before he could think of a way, his beloved little son got him into trouble.
In his opinion, if you just provoke the Zhenguo Duke's government, there is still room for change. Although the Zhenguo Duke has a high position and the Zhenguo General is famous, if it involves the court and the officials of Xijing, , it is very difficult for them to intervene even if they want to intervene. After all, they are the so-called feudal officials, and they have military power. Even if His Majesty has the utmost trust, they will have some scruples.
But Zhao Shilang never expected that his stupid son would actually make trouble in front of Song Qiyun, and he had a feeling of impending disaster. Although this prince is young and is not in Xijing all year round, his position in His Majesty's heart is very important, and he needs to be asked about many things. What's more, he is still a member of the Shen family army, and he has actually been on the battlefield and killed the enemy. No one can tell what the consequences will be if he is provoked. After all, everyone in the Song family knows that although they appear gentle and royal, they are extremely crazy in their hearts. No one can predict how crazy they will become when stimulated.
In order not to irritate Song Qiyun and for his own safety, Zhao Shilang's first reaction was to run away. Even if he got a reputation as a coward in the future, it would be better than losing his life. It is said that a person who knows the current affairs is a hero. Since he can't be offended, he can still hide.
As for the possibility that his son would be sent to Jingzhao Mansion to spend a few days in jail, he was not worried at all. Not only was he not worried, he truly believed that Song Qiyun did the right thing. The boy was so pampered by his family that he dared to say anything. He dares to do anything and provoke anyone. It's time to discipline him and teach him a lesson.
Song Qiyun didn't know what Minister Zhao was thinking. Looking at Zhao Kai standing there stupidly, he suddenly felt that this boy was a little pitiful.
"Zhao Kai, right?" Seeing the other party's dumb nod, he walked over and patted his shoulder, "Stay in Jingzhao Mansion for two days. I will let Mr. Fu Yin take good care of you. As for your father..."
"Your Majesty, my father..." Zhao Kai wanted to cry very much now, "You won't ignore me, will you?"
"Well..." Song Qiyun hesitated and said with some uncertainty, "Probably not. When your detention time is up, he will definitely pick you up. Don't worry!" After saying that, he turned to several people. Shadow waved, "Okay, take it away!"
Watching Shadow leave with Zhao Kai, Song Qiyun turned to look at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Bai Meng. Seeing their helpless expressions, he sighed softly, making these people feel powerless. This Zhao The waiter is really a talent.
After leaving the restaurant, Bai Meng sent someone to take Song Jin and Qingkan back to Prince Wu's Mansion, while he followed Shen Haolin and the others to Prince Dai's Mansion.
Qingkan noticed that Duke Zhen and the general did not mention the intersection between his brother and Chi Er, nor did they mention meeting his brother. He would not bring it up again, lest he leave a bad impression on the other party. What's more, the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion has a close relationship with Prince Dai's Mansion, and his brother also has more contacts with Prince Dai and King Eagle. If he really needs his brother, they will come to him, so there is no need for him to bother himself.
After thinking about this clearly, Qingkan quickly followed Song Jin. The two children chattered over what they should do to pass the time in the afternoon.
"He is a smart kid." Shen Cha looked at Qingkan's back, smiled slightly, turned around and walked to Shen Haolin, "Commander, how is Chi Er's current situation?"
"Ever since I was arrested, I haven't said a word. I haven't eaten or drank. I just sit there in a daze." Bai Meng sighed, "Nine times out of ten, he is planning how to deal with us!"
"Did the Chi family copy anything that was detrimental to him?" Song Qiyun looked at Bai Meng, "This second young master works in the Ministry of Industry, but he is just a casual job, dispensable, and there is no way to contact him. Any useful information received will not be of any help to what Mr. Chi Ge wants to do. But he has always been Mr. Chi Ge’s right-hand man. Now it seems that this idle job at the Ministry of Industry is just a cover. "
"Chi Er is a very cautious person. Otherwise, he would have been secretly smuggling salt and iron for so many years without being discovered." Bai Meng curled his lips, "I guess he received a reminder from his younger brother to smuggle all the evidence against him. It was all cleaned up and we didn’t find anything useful.”
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other. The second young master of the Chi family was cunning and difficult to deal with. It would take some effort to pry his mouth open.
"We have been worried before that old files and a few confessions alone are not enough to convince Brother Xiaotian. Now it's better. Not only do we have physical evidence, but we also have the witnesses who participated in the case. Even if this case cannot be made public now , for Brother Xiao Tian, there can also be a perfect ending, and the knot in his heart can also be solved."
Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, reached out and patted her shoulder, comforting her, "It will happen, and the truth will come to light. Those who participated in this case will definitely be punished as they deserve."
