Chapter 280 I have to repay the kindness

Yao Si got up early the next day, ate some food and went out with Lan Xin. Yan knew what she was going to do, so he naturally didn't stop him. He just told him to pay attention to safety normally, and did not show any discomfort. But even so, Yao Si still guessed from the fatigue in his mother's eyes that he must have not slept well last night, and must have known his thoughts from his father, and was worried all night.

But she was helpless, and some things had to be done. The first few days and retreat were thorns. Why bother backing and retreating? It would be better to walk forward bravely.

It was just dawning at this time, and there were few pedestrians on the street. Lan Xin didn't know that Yao Si was going to another place, and thought she was still going to the Wuming Wine House first, and said strangely: "Why did the girl go out so early today? Will Mr. Pei not get up yet?"

"I won't go to Wuming Wine House today. I've told Mr. Pei yesterday that in two days, I will go directly to get the wine."

"Then where are we going now?" Lan Xin knew which street we were now, but there were many places leading to this street, and she really couldn't think of what Yao Si was going to do.

Yao Si smiled: "Jingzhao Yin gave me a big gift before, and I have to thank you."

Lan Xin was surprised and opened her mouth wide, "Miss, she even knows Jingzhao Yin."

When Yao Si saw her admiring look, he smiled bitterly: "You forgot where did I come from before? I came from the Jingzhao Prefecture Office, so I naturally met Jingzhao Yin."

"Miss, don't say that, you are wronged and you are wronged. You are not blamed."

"So, Jingzhao Yin gave me a big gift, so I naturally have to thank me." Yao Si said with a smile.

The two of them arrived at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion. The gate had been opened. Two yamen runners were guarding the door. Yao Si did not break directly. He went forward and said kindly: "Two men, please inform Lord Jingzhao Yin, and said that Yao Si wanted to see him."

"Yao Si?" When the two gatekeepers heard Yao Si, their faces changed immediately. If Jingzhao Mansion had not posted a notice of Yao Si's innocence, they might have arrested the person immediately, because in the yamen's files, Yao Si was rescued by a group of men in black.

Yao Si nodded: "It's the Yao Si you are thinking in your heart, so please inform me, and said that Yao Si came to thank Lord Jingzhao Yin for his previous care."

The two looked at each other, and finally one of them said "wait", then went in and reported, entered the lobby and walked through the corridor to the inner courtyard, the yamen runner came in and bowed, "Sir, Yao Si is outside, saying that he came to thank the adult for his care, and he came to thank him. Do you want to see him?"

Liao Weizhang stopped the pen in his hand and hesitated for a moment. Shan Cha, who was beside him, chuckled softly: "It seems that Yao Si is asking for help."

"How to say it?" Liao Weizhang looked at Shan Cha in confusion.

Shan Cha smiled slightly and said confidently: "First, what she said was to thank the adults for their care. The adults also understood what was going on in their hearts. Naturally, there were no words of thanks. Her relationship with Qiu Ji was unusual, and I'm afraid she had already known the inside story of the whole incident.

But why didn’t she come for so long, but today? Besides, she is not the kind of person who is impulsive and does not consider the consequences. So the official concluded that she came today with a purpose, and since she said she would thank the adults for their care, she obviously wanted to use this matter to threaten the adults to agree to her request."

Liao Weizhang was shocked, "Is this true? That woman - who doesn't look like this, and she should understand that everything I do is just obedient. Even if she wants to settle the score with me, I can only apologize to her. What else can I do? Can I give Qiu Zhan back to her and let her stab me twice?"

"Sir, don't forget that you are the official here, you are Jingzhao Yin, she is just a little student, and you really don't need to take such an attitude."

Liao Weizhang held his forehead with a wry smile, "I know, I just---the chief clerk knew that I had always felt guilty about Qiu Zhan's death. As for Yao Si, he also walked away from the gate of hell, and I subconsciously felt sorry for them."

Shan Cha shook his head, "Please don't think so. You are not wrong in this matter. There is no right or wrong in the whirlpool of power, so there is no need to stick to it."

Liao Weizhang knew this in his heart, but there was another sense of justice in his bones. That justice made him feel that he could not make excuses to shirk this matter, and could not seek spiritual comfort, especially the scene of Qiu's father crashing into the court in the end, which he still remembers vividly.

"Let her come in." Liao Weizhang said last. The yamen runner exclaimed and ran out immediately.

When Yao Si saw the yamen run out, he smiled and walked forward, owed the gift, and walked straight to the inner courtyard.

The layout of Jingzhao Mansion is relatively simple. It goes all the way through the gate without turning around. She soon arrives at the inner courtyard. When she enters the door, she looks at Liao Weizhang burying her head. The person standing next to her is called Shan Cha. Although she has seen it once or twice before, she has never seen it close. But at this time, she sees Shan Cha’s meaningful eyes looking at her, smiling, as if she has already known everything.

Yao Si smiled and bowed, shouting, "Minister Yao Si has met Lord Jingzhao Yin."

Liao Weizhang had already put down his pen and smiled kindly, pointing to the stool and said, "Don't be restrained, come and sit down and talk---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Soon a servant brought the tea to Yao Si. Yao Si said thank you, took a few sips of tea before putting down the tea cup and said, "I am surprised by the fact that I am busy and willing to see me. I suddenly took the liberty to come to my door and will not delay my important matters."

They were all polite words, and Liao Weizhang laughed and said, "Miss Yao came here specially today, but what's the matter?"

Yao Si stared at Liao Weizhang with a pair of eyes, with a smile, and his tone seemed very relaxed: "Actually, I just wanted to thank the adults for their previous care. After hearing that I was injured, the adults invited the best doctor in Beijing to treat me, and even turned the prison cell into a ward. This is a rare thing in ancient times."

Liao Weizhang's heart sank and thought to himself that Yao Si was indeed coming for this matter, but what does she mean to say such a thing? She did not argue with herself, but instead said something to thank her. Is it true that she asked for something as the chief clerk said?

He thought in his heart, but smiled and said, "Miss Yao is right. If something happened to me in my cell, I will naturally not be able to escape responsibility. What I did is just within my duties, and there is no need to say "Xie". "Since I want to play the puzzle, he will simply play the puzzle together."

The two of them went like this for a few rounds, and the atmosphere became more harmonious. In the eyes of outsiders, they seemed to be really kind.
