After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Chapter 267 Alienation

After bidding farewell to Mr. Liang, Yoko went there early the next morning and ran into He Wensu, the prisoner who had just been captured.

Hey, Xiao Qi!

Yoko was planning to just walk over and pretend she didn't see anything, but unexpectedly He Wensu quickly walked up to her and greeted her.

The man in front of him had dull and red eyes and a stubbled beard. It was obvious that he had been staying up late for several days and did not look well rested.

Tsk tsk, I haven’t seen you for a few days. Are you still fleeing?

No way, no way. It’s all because of work.

I have a bunch of troublesome people under me, and I have to personally take care of everything they do.

Now, it turned out like this, I'm sorry to embarrass you.

You too, why are you so serious? Why can't you delegate the task to your subordinates? Why do you have to work so hard on your own?

You support so many people, are you the only one who can breathe?

Someone finally understood He Wensu's hard work over the past few days, and he started to speak openly to Yoko.

You don't know, that bunch of people are traitors. Seeing that I offended them a few days ago, they tried their best to order me to do things, but they just couldn't offend me.

Just a few days ago, they threw one to me that they couldn’t pry open no matter how hard they tried. Damn it.

He Wensu was awakened by this and remembered that this was not the place to talk, so he immediately asked Yoko to go and talk on her own.

It's not that I'm on guard against her, but this matter cannot be said openly. If it leaks out, it will be a disaster.

He poured Yoko a cup of tea first, then looked around to make sure there was no one around before closing the door.

Nine times out of ten, yes.

But this person is different. When it comes to other people, he either confesses everything or talks nonsense.

But this person, after hearing almost everything, didn't say a word. I have never seen such a stubborn person.

Have you found out how old this person is, whether he has a family, etc.? Maybe you can find his weaknesses from that.

Single, 57 years old, with a surprisingly clean family background, nothing can be found out about him.

That's why we want to pry something useful out of him.

After all, no one is as stubborn as him. There must be something wrong with this old guy.

Yoko looked listless, and it was obvious that she was not very interested in what He Wensu said, but her heart was filled with turmoil.

According to He Wensu's description, this person is most likely Mr. Ren Wensheng, whom Mr. Liang asked her to save. His age and identity match.

I didn't expect that he has been in the Yama Palace several times. It seems that we must rescue him before He Wensu and others kill him.

Seeing Yoko's uninterested look, He Wensu slowly stopped talking.

By the way, how is your health? Why don’t you take a few more days of rest? There’s nothing important here.

You were discharged from the hospital several days earlier than me, so how could I stay in bed?

Yoko glanced at him sideways, and He Wensu scratched the back of his neck and laughed awkwardly a few times.

How can you be like me? I'm busy, how can I care about such a small injury?

Yoko held the teacup without responding, but just stared at the tea leaves floating in the cup, slowly moving with her breathing.

When this matter is over, He Wensu will be involved.

You go to work first, I have to go back and take care of my own business.

As soon as I went out, I ran into Kawai Shihei who came back to report the situation.

It was obvious that Kawai Zhiping hadn't had a good rest for a long time, and the fatigue between his eyebrows was extremely obvious.

Seeing Yoko coming out of He Wensu, he was very surprised and stared at her as if he wanted to see something.

Yoko's eyebrows twitched. Is it not advisable to go out today?

How come I met two evil stars in such a short period of time?

Being stared at by Kawai Shihei's eyes like that, Yoko suddenly felt cold all over, as if she was being entangled by a poisonous snake.

However, he had no intention of communicating with him too much. He just nodded slightly and turned sideways, wanting to leave.

Unexpectedly, Kawai Zhiping looked her up and down before speaking.

Sorry about what happened last time.

Yoko turned around and looked at him, thinking that this man was strange, saying something like that without any reason.

Adhering to the principle of harmony, Yoko kept a distance and gave him a polite smile.

Is that what Captain Kawai was talking about?

It’s okay. It’s not your responsibility. It was just an accident. Now everything is fine, isn’t it?

Was it really an accident?

Kawai Shihei asked back in a gloomy tone.

It comes again and again. I knew that this person is suspicious to the core!

Why did I have to be so rude to talk to him? I was taken away by him now. I deserved it!

Yoko was complaining madly in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she tilted her head and looked at him in confusion.

Aren't those people coming for He Wensu? Am I wrong?

Kawai Zhiping was choked by Yoko's innocent tone and didn't know how to answer.

That group of people were indeed coming for He Wensu, but it was too coincidental that his men were so incompetent that they not only failed to catch anyone, but also made things out of control.

But no matter how hard he investigated, he couldn't find out who was behind this incident. It was possible that he was just too suspicious and saw enemies everywhere.

Kawai Zhiping pressed his eyebrows hard several times before nodding to Yoko and walking away.

Watching his back getting farther and farther away, Yoko did not feel relieved, but rather felt heavier.

Kawai Shihei is a really difficult person to deal with. We must be more careful in the future.

Every day, Yoko pretended to meet He Wensu by chance, and also found out some information about Mr. Ren Wensheng's current situation from the side.

Ren Wensheng is now on the verge of death. If he continues to be interrogated like this, he will probably die before anything can be learned from him.

So the patient is still receiving treatment, and this gap is a rare opportunity for Yoko.

During this period, Yoko also noticed a special person, Ishihiko.

He was one of the first people on trial who survived He Wensu's hands, and he was also Ren Wensheng, the person he betrayed.

It is said that Ren Wensheng's first breakdown was due to this person's verbal provocation.

Yoko suddenly felt that perhaps she could implement the rescue plan or completely reverse the situation through this man named Ishi Yan.

That day, she picked a time and took the opportunity to deliver documents to hang around the interrogation room.

As soon as I turned around, I was stopped by He Wensu who had just arrived.

Behind He Wensu followed a young man, about 27 or 28 years old, who looked quite energetic. His clothes were ordinary, but he managed to show a proper temperament.

He must have been through it, Yoko was sure of it.

When she first saw this person, Yoko suddenly remembered Kawai Shihei.

The only difference from him was that there was no darkness in this person's eyes, only indifference.

He should be that Shi Yan.

Seeing Yoko staring at the person behind him in confusion, he quickly moved aside to introduce her.
