"Brother Chumo, this secret letter must be delivered to the father's hands in person, and there must be no mistakes!"

After returning to the manor, Li Zhi hurriedly returned to his room and hurriedly wrote a secret letter, then called Cheng Chumo over and instructed with a serious look on his face.

"yes!"

Seeing Your Highness's solemn expression, Cheng Chumo knew the seriousness of the matter and did not dare to neglect any more. After receiving the secret letter, he put it in his arms.

"Brother Chumo, be careful on the way back. I wonder if I am too careful. I always think that something big will happen in the Tang Dynasty?"

I don’t know who spread the method of making firearms. Although I have just confirmed that the so-called firearms in Du Liu’s hands are even more powerful than the things he developed at the beginning, this kind of thing must be killed.

"Don't worry, your highness, I won't have any problems, but I'm leaving, what should I do with your safety?"

To be honest, in Cheng Chumo's heart, great things are not as important as His Highness's safety, especially in Jiaozhou City, where undercurrents are surging. Although those enemies cannot get on the table, they are still worried.

"Don't worry, you don't know my master's methods yet, so there will definitely be no problem."

Grinning at Cheng Chumo, Li Zhi then said confidently that with his own ability, the person who could kill him was not born yet.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely come back as soon as possible!"

After Cheng Chumo bowed to Li Zhi again, he turned around and left resolutely.

...

Hong Mansion.

Hong Xingwang took the official to Du Mansion and Zheng's family to conduct a carpet-style search inside and outside, but he did not find any trace of the firearm, which made his face look ugly, and he didn't even know how to explain to the young master.

"Mr. Hong, I have remembered what happened today. If there is nothing else, I will go back."

Du Liu, who walked out of the cell, suddenly had a sick smile on his cheek. It seemed that God was helping him, and the people of the court had no choice but to do anything to him.

"Du Liu, you must know that if you walk too much at night, you will eventually encounter ghosts. Next time, I don't believe you will be so lucky!"

Hong Xingwang was so arrogant that the other party was very angry, but he was helpless. Without enough evidence, he could not wrongly accuse a good person, especially under His Highness's nose. He would never have caused an unjust case.

"Thank you, Lord Hong, for your advice, but the villain has always been law-abiding, Lord Hong may not see that day."

After this incident, Du Liu also sounded the alarm in his heart, and he also knew that he was really arrogant before, and his strength is not enough to confront the court now.

Looking at Du Liu who left here with a stern move, he almost didn't get angry. He felt that his prestige was ruthlessly trampled on by this bastard.

In the past, any of the heads of these aristocratic families were not respectful when they saw them, but this bastard was so good that he seemed to have no words of awe at all.

"It's all gone, I'll go out!"

The progress of the matter was almost done, and Du Liu was punished with the confessions of those people. Obviously, the evidence was not sufficient, and he had not found any trace of the firearm. He had to report the matter here to His Highness in person.

No one expected that Du Liu, who left first, did not rush to return to the Du Mansion, but hid not far away under the moonlight, watching Lord Hong leave, and then returned to the Hong Mansion.

The officials of this period were all greedy, and the people who worked under their command were no exception. No one could resist the temptation of money, so Du Liushi successfully entered the prison cell.

"What are you thinking? Are you scared?"

The woman sat on the weeds with expressionless face, looking desperate, and was locked up here. She didn't know if she would still have hope of going out.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Du Liu's arrival, the woman's heart became even colder. Since when he refused to admit to knowing himself in front of Lord Hong, the trace of emotion he originally had disappeared.

"You are my head of the family. You have seen that situation just now. The head of the family can only choose this way, so that you can escape the disaster. Only when the head of the family breaks free from the vortex can you have the opportunity to rescue you. Otherwise, if we are both imprisoned here, there will be no hope. The head of the family hopes that you can figure this out."

Feeling the woman's coldness towards her, Du Liu frowned slightly, but he didn't mind. The pawn could not be given up yet. After all, he had not eaten the fat piece of Zheng's body.

"So you came to save me?"

The woman doesn't believe his words at all, nor does she think he has such great ability. These are just words he uses to comfort himself.

"Don't worry, you won't be allowed to stay here for too long. Next, you'll wait to go back and take over the Zheng family. With this today's incident, that old guy is almost on the right track."

Du Liu shook his head slightly. He didn't have the ability to rescue the woman now, but he could send the head of the Zheng family for a long time, which could be regarded as a major problem. In short, it could be considered a blessing in disguise.

"What do you mean?"

The woman suddenly looked up at Du Liu, and for some reason she felt a little inexplicable panic in her heart.

"I believe he already knows about our affairs. Now is a good opportunity. As long as he dies, you can become the helm of Zheng's family. Otherwise, you will definitely be the one who dies. Think about it carefully for your son!"

Du Liu could not give her a chance to get off the boat, and she would not turn back. Since she chose to cooperate with him, she would not have the chance to quit halfway.

"I hope you didn't cheat on me this time."

The woman took a deep breath and then spoke, "You know that he said that the food was filled with ingredients. Until now, she did not notice any abnormalities in her body. It was obvious that she had fallen into the trap."

"How could it be? Since our cooperation began, the head of the family has never treated you badly. I will definitely do what I promised you. Please wait for good news here with peace of mind!"

Du Liu naturally understood the meaning of her words, but he couldn't explain it. With his own means, he was very confident in controlling this woman.

Just as she watched Du Liu leave happily, the woman fell into deep thought again. She didn't know if her choice was right. Is it really worth it for her son?

The answer is yes. If she doesn't fight for the right thing, no one will take the initiative to send it into her hands. She has no choice but to take risks. Once she succeeds, her son will no longer have to live humbly in the Zheng family.
