Chapter 90 Ming Cult, Ah Zhu

"Oh?" Zhao Ti said, "Where is the person? Take me to see him."

Zhou Tong said, "Just lock him up next to the flower house, and have soldiers guard him. According to the king's order, no one in Mantuo Villa will be informed of anything related to Yanziwu."

Zhao Ti said: "This is the best. Since the two families are related, it is inevitable that the news will leak out. We must be on guard."

As he spoke he went straight to the greenhouse, which was next to a large flower garden and consisted of several houses in a row.

Zhao Ti walked over and the soldiers saluted and made way for him. When he entered, he saw Bai Zhan and Su Da interrogating a plump middle-aged man with a look of grievance on his face.

The two stood up and saluted. Bai Zhan said, "Sir, this man rowed a small boat alone to Qinyun Cottage. When he didn't find anyone, he went to Yanziwu in the back. I saw that his movements were suspicious and there must be something fishy, so I captured him and brought him back."

Su Dadao: "This guy is quite good at martial arts, especially swimming. If it weren't for our subordinates who had already set up a hidden net in the water around him, it would have been difficult to capture him."

"Did you find out anything during the interrogation?" Zhao Ti asked.

"Young master, I haven't asked him the answer yet, but I found this on him." Bai Zhan took out a bamboo tube, which was as thick as a thumb, about three inches long, and sealed with wax on both sides.

"Well, that's a letter I'm delivering on behalf of my client." The wealthy man shouted immediately.

"Family letter? Which common people would write a family letter in this format? It's obviously a gangster style at first glance!" Su shouted.

"How would I know what the underworld is? You have to ask the customer who asked me to deliver the letter." said the wealthy man.

"Where is the customer who delivered the letter?" Su Da grabbed him by the collar.

"Sir, my customer is in Hongzhou. I'm doing business there. I came to Suzhou to purchase goods and bring a letter for my customer." said the wealthy man.

"Send the letter to Yanziwu Chanhezhuang?" Su Da sneered.

"I don't know what Chanhe Village is. I just rented a boat to deliver a letter, but was caught by the commanders. I didn't do anything that violated the law. I am innocent!" shouted the wealthy man.

"You dare to lie..." Su Da raised his hand to hit him.

"Let's hear what the young master has to say." Bai Zhan stopped him.

At this time, Zhao Ti opened the bamboo tube, and found a letter rolled up inside. There were only a few dozen words on it. After reading it, he looked a little strange.

"Are you from the Ming Cult? Why did the Ming Cult ask Murong Fu to go to Guangmingding of Yushan Mountain? When did you collude with Murong Fu?" Zhao Ti put down the paper in his hand and said lightly.

This secret letter was actually written by the Ming Cult to Murong Fu. Judging from the tone, the two seemed to have been in contact for quite some time and had been colluding with each other for a long time.

"What is Guangmingding, what is Murong Fu, I don't know." The wealthy man did not change his expression and shook his head vigorously: "I am just a messenger, I don't know the content of the letter at all."

Zhao Ti snorted. The content of the letter invited Murong Fu to meet at Guangmingding on the 18th of next month at the top of Yushan Mountain. It didn't say what they were going to do, and there was no signature, but Murong Fu should know who wrote it.

"You Ming Cult traitor, you still dare to be stubborn!" Su Da slapped the wealthy man so hard that half of his face was swollen.

Zhao Ti stood up and said, "Ask them carefully. Use all the methods used by the Imperial City Department. You may also use those used by the Ministry of Justice in Kaifeng Prefecture."

"Yes, sir!" Bai Zhan and Su Da responded. Zhao Ti walked out of the greenhouse, and Zhou Tong followed behind.

Zhao Ti was thinking at this moment that Murong Fu was not at home and he didn't know when he would come back. Even if the letter was not intercepted and delivered to Chanhe Manor, Murong Fu might not be able to see it before the 18th of next month.

He turned to look at Zhou Tong: "How are the two little girls from Chanhe Village?"

Zhou Tong said, "When we went to the island to check, they were both terrified. They thought it was Madam Wang who wanted to chop off their hands and feet to make fertilizer for the flowers. Later, my subordinates explained to them that it was soldiers. Although Ah Bi was relieved, she seemed unhappy. Ah Zhu was very happy."

Zhao Ti nodded. Ah Zhu and Ah Bi were different, which could be seen from their later actions. He murmured for a moment: "Didn't they quarrel and leave?"

"That's not the case. Both of them are quite perceptive. Ah Bi looked anxious but didn't say anything." Zhou Tong said. Zhao Ti nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Zhou Tong led the way to the gate of a small courtyard. The courtyard was guarded on all sides, and the commander of the water camp was sitting in the courtyard himself.

The two little girls are from Yanziwu. Unlike Li Qingluo, Li Qingluo only needs someone to keep a close eye on them, but this side is guarded very strictly.

After entering the yard, the water camp commander opened the door. Zhao Ti walked in and saw two girls in the room.

Both of them were pretty. One of them wore a water green dress, which made her look elegant and pretty. A tiny black mole at the corner of her mouth added to her charm. She looked quite nervous when she saw him.

The other one was even more beautiful, wearing a light crimson gauze shirt, with a charming demeanor, a pair of beautiful eyes, and a lively gaze, which brought with her a moving aura.

The commander of the water camp said: "Why don't you two little girls pay your respects to the King of Yan!"

The two girls were surprised when they heard this. The girl in the green shirt showed panic and saluted hurriedly, saying, "Abi greets the King of Yan."

The dark eyes of the girl in the light crimson shirt rolled around, and she stole a glance at Zhao Ti, then bowed and said, "Azhu greets the King of Yan."

Zhao Ti's gaze fell on Ah Zhu. She was looking up with a smile on her face, her face full of mischief.

Zhao Ti asked, "Do you two want to go home?"

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Of course I want to go home."

Zhao Ti said: "I can only reply to one first."

The two were stunned, and Ah Zhu whispered, "Sister Ah Bi, you should go back first."

Ah Bi said, "I can't leave Sister Ah Zhu alone at my aunt's farm."

Ah Zhu shook her head and said, "Now that the King of Yan is in charge, my aunt won't dare to chop off my hands or feet, so don't worry, sister Ah Bi."

When Zhao Ti heard her clear and sweet voice, like pearls falling on a jade plate, he couldn't help but look over again. He saw that her skin was white, tender, smooth and crystal clear, and her expression was like a spring flower just blooming. A faint fragrance came to him secretly.

He said, "Azhu, I heard you can disguise yourself?"

Ah Zhu looked back and said, "Your Highness, it was Master Duan who said that I am indeed proficient in disguise."

Zhao Ti nodded and smiled: "Okay, you will accompany me back to Tingxiangshui Pavilion tomorrow."

What? The two of them were stunned. Instead of letting the person go, they went over together.

A-Bi showed a complex expression of panic, bit her lip slightly and lowered her head.

Ah Zhu blinked and whispered, "I obey your command."

Zhao Ti smiled, turned and left.

Continue to practice at night, transform the absorbed internal force into phantom Yin Qi, and then rest.

The next morning, Zhao Ti asked Tong Guan to bring Azhu, and then called the gang of martial artists, left the island, and headed straight for Tingxiangshui Pavilion in front of Yanziwu.

When they reached the waterside pavilion, the soldiers rowed out from the reed marsh, and Hou San and Zhu Si saluted at the bow of the boat.

Zhao Ti glanced around the waterside pavilion, then looked behind him and asked, "Is there anything unusual?"

(There will be more today, probably in the evening, thank you everyone)
