After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone

  Chapter 39 White Shadow

   "Brother, let me ask you something."

  The miner glanced at the gorgeous clothes of several people, and asked with some vigilance: "What's the matter."

  The guard took out an ingot of silver from his pocket and stuffed it.

  The miner squeezed the white silver in his hand, he was overjoyed, and grinned at them:

   "What do you want to ask? Let me tell you, there is nothing in this mine that I don't know!" After finishing speaking, he patted his chest proudly.

  The guard glanced at Feng Lisheng, and then said: "Then can you take us in for a walk?"

  The miner hesitated: "This...there are regulations..."

  The guard took out another ingot of silver from his pocket, and pointedly said: "Don't worry, my own people, isn't this the end of the mine, the superior sent us to check and accept it."

  The miner realized instantly when he heard the words, he only thought that these people were sent by the superiors to visit in disguise. After looking at the white ingot, he led a few people into the mine very simply.

   Along the way, the guard chatted with the miner from time to time, and Shen Mingjiao would occasionally introduce the topic quietly.

   "How long have you been in this mine?"

   "It's been five or six years! I was one of the first to come here. My family lives near here. People in our village discovered the silver mine and reported it."

  This miner is very talkative. If you ask him, he can talk for a long time.

  Shen Mingjiao took advantage of the situation and asked: "Then did you pay your wages on time? Did the foreman oppress and abuse you?"

The miner waved his hands and smiled when he heard the words: "Girl, don't worry, we are also doing business for the court. Although the boss is fierce, he has never killed anyone. Except for the lack of time for meals every day, although the wages are not much, they are paid on a monthly basis. "

  When the miner said this, his dark face smiled contentedly. For the ordinary people at the bottom, as long as there is work to do. If you get your wages on time, you can always get along.

  Shen Mingjiao naturally knew that the government would never dare to treat these miners harshly, and they were already doing shameful things. If something happened in the mine and spread, then they would not be able to cover up their private embezzlement of silver mines.

   "I didn't say that, the people above you are quite diligent. When the mine just opened, they sent people to Qiaozhuang to check..."

   Feng Lisheng, who had been silent all this time, was moved in his heart and asked, "Oh, what does that person look like?"

   "A boy with a servant, let me tell you, that boy looks just like the fairy in the painting..."

The miner's tone was full of fascination. Seeing Feng Lisheng's sharp-edged handsome face, he suddenly said: "You look a bit like you, young master. I guess you must be brothers from the same family, tsk! Your family is really different. Promising..."

  Feng Lisheng closed his eyes, suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and said lightly: "He is my nephew!"

  The miner didn't care about it, he just said cheerfully, seeing that you are about the same age, so you are so different in seniority?

  Shen Mingjiao was startled, Feng Lisheng's nephew came to Luodu five years ago, isn't that the former prince?

  As far as she knew, the former prince also died of a serious illness on the way back to Beijing five years ago. Will the two be involved?

"When the two of you came here, it was full of travel and dust, and the young man, Xiao Zhao, was injured in his back, so he stayed at our house for one night. To tell you the truth, at that time, I saw that Xiao Zhao was so gentle and handsome. I wanted to tell him about my daughter, but unfortunately he said that he already has someone in mind, what is his name Susu..."

  Hearing the surname Zhao, for some reason, Shen Mingjiao thought of Zhao Ke sensitively. When she heard "Susu", Shen Mingjiao became even more suspicious, because Mrs. Zhao's boudoir name was Jiang Susu.

  This... is too coincidental!

  Feng Lisheng seemed to have noticed something, and ordered the guards to go back to the carriage to fetch pens and paper.

  Feng Lisheng picked up a pen and outlined a handsome and refined face on the rice paper. It was Zhao Ke.

  The miner took a look and clapped his hands excitedly: "That's right...this is Xiao Zhao! Hey! I haven't seen you for a few years, this kid seems calmer..."

  Feng Lisheng and Shen Mingjiao met each other.

   It's really Zhao Ke! Then how did he become the Lord of Luodu City?

  …

  On the way back, Shen Mingjiao couldn't help asking: "Has Your Highness never seen Zhao Ke before?"

  Feng Lisheng flipped through the investigation about Zhao Ke sent by Feng Wugang, and said in a shy voice: "I was at the border at the beginning, and when I got the news, Qi You was no longer there."

  He has been blaming himself all the time, if he was there, maybe Qi You would be fine.

   Seeing him like this, Shen Mingjiao tactfully didn't say any more, instead she leaned over curiously and looked at the letter paper in his hand.

  According to the investigation of Feng Wu and others, the Zhao family is a scholarly family, and the ancestors have also had high officials. The Zhao family is considered a big family in Luodu City.

  Zhao Ke was gifted and intelligent since he was a child, and he became a Jinshi at the age of seventeen. Because of this, he has a somewhat conceited personality. When he first entered the officialdom, he offended many people. Later, he was demoted to Luodu as a petty official. On the contrary, his personality gradually became calm.

  In five years, he was promoted step by step from a seventh-rank official to a fourth-rank official. It is no exaggeration to say that the official fortune is prosperous.

  Shen Mingjiao held her chin in thought: "It seems that all the changes happened five years ago. Could it be that he used a disguise technique or something?"

  Feng Lisheng shook his head: "No, no matter how powerful the disguise technique is, it still has flaws. After a long time, it is impossible not to be discovered. Unless—"

He pointed to one of the lines: "Although Zhao Ke is the only son, he has an elder brother who died young. There is an unwritten saying that if twins are born in the family, it means bad luck, and one of the children must be drowned. But most of the parents are reluctant and will secretly give away one of their children.”

  Shen Mingjiao thought for a while: "It makes sense, then why did he do these things? It's not right to hate the Zhao family for revenge! With so much money, it's impossible to want to rebel!"

  Feng Lisheng paused, thinking that Feng Qiyou's death happened in a flash. He seemed to understand everything. He opened the curtain and called Wang Dashan who came to follow the car: "Quick, go to the Zhao Mansion."

   After speaking, he untied a token from his waist: "Give this to Feng Wu, and let him arrest Zhao Ke directly."

  Wang Dashan took orders and left.

  Unfortunately, they were still one step too late.

  …

  In the study of the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Ke stared at the beautiful picture of mountains and rivers, and murmured:

   "His Royal Highness, don't worry, I will not let anyone who has harmed you!"

   "Once the incident about the mine was exposed, Luodu's gang of officials might not be able to escape, but this is not enough!"

  At this moment, his eyes are full of hatred, and his gentle and handsome face is full of desperate madness.

   When Feng Lisheng came to Zhao Mansion. Feng Wu hastily stepped forward to report: "Your Highness, this subordinate is incompetent, and he is missing!"

  Feng Lisheng frowned: "What's going on?"

   "Master Zhao has been staying in the study room before. His subordinates received orders from His Highness to break open the door of the study room, but the person had disappeared. After careful inspection, he found that there was a secret passage in the study room leading to the ferry outside the city."

  Feng Lisheng ordered: "Feng Wu leads people to check the ships going to the capital."

   "Xu Daniu, you are in charge of leading people to investigate the **** team that Luodu will go to the capital recently."

   Then he entered Zhao Ke's study with a sullen face.

  Feng Wu glanced at the chaotic Zhao Mansion, and asked, "What about Zhao Ke's family?"

   "Take control of people for the time being." After saying that, I thought of Mrs. Lian who "suicide". His heart moved, and he suddenly reacted,

   If going to the capital, Zhao Ke does not necessarily have to take a boat, he may also take the official route.

  …

  Shen Mingjiao carried Xiao Xuetuan back to the rented yard. She was a little worried about Mrs. Zhao, so she told Feng Lisheng to send someone to take care of her before she left.

  When I think of Mrs. Zhao, I think of what the miner said. I have a bold guess in my heart, and I always feel that something is wrong.

  At this time, a seven or eight-year-old boy accidentally bumped into her.

  The little boy smirked at first, then lowered his head in a panic: "I... I'm sorry!"

  Shen Mingjiao touched the little boy's head: "Whose family are you a child, why did you come here?"

  The little boy was not angry when he saw this beautiful and unreal elder sister. Continue to giggle: "I... My name is Er Gouzi... I'm a little beggar..."

  The guard who sent her back explained:

   "This child is the little beggar who appeared near Jia Tongpan's house on the night of the Miemen case. He always said that he saw a group of white shadows flying into the yard at that time, but this child's brain is not very good, so I guess it is nonsense.

   It's just that he is the only witness after all, so His Highness temporarily left him behind. "

  Shen Mingjiao glanced at the child's thin and silly smiling face, and couldn't help but think of her adopted son Feng Shuo in her previous life.

   I don’t know where the child is now? After reviving her life, she was sure that Feng Lisheng had also been sending people to look for him.
