The housekeeper had been waiting at the door, apparently waiting for them to come back. Before they could ask what happened, the housekeeper said, "Eldest young master, young madam, Xun Qi and the others are back."

"It's a bit serious." Jiang Lin quickened his pace and pushed Wei Yunzhao back to Zhaoyunyuan.

Wei Yunzhao asked the housekeeper, , "Have you invited the doctor? Are they awake?"

The housekeeper: "Yes, the doctor has already bandaged and gave the medicine, Chang An is awake, Xun Qi is still unconcious, the doctor said he was poisoned, but fortunately it's not serious and it can be cured."

Wei Yunzhao nodded, "Understood, you have to watch over the boiling of the medicine yourself, and no mistakes are allowed."

Yes, the housekeeper took the order and left.

Before, they only sent these two people to the gambing shop to take a look. They didn't expect they went there for so long and came back with injuries, which was enough to show that the gambling shop was not simple.

Or maybe the Second Prince's conspiracy was far beyond their imagination.

Chang An was drinking medicine when Jiang Lin entered the room, Baiji and Baiwei was watching from the side.

Chang An happily called Jiang Lin, "Master."

But soon he showed a pitiful expression on the verge of tears, "Chang An almost thought that he would never see Master again."

Jiang Lin went over and patted his head, "No, you see that you have come back and you are alright."

Chang An nodded, he handed the bowl to Baiji after drinking the medicine, and still cried while hugging the quilt, feeling sad and frightened, obviously he had experienced a lot.

Chang An had been by Jiang Lin's side since he was very young. Jiang Lin was a dude, but he wouldn't do anything that put his life in danger. Naturally, Chang An, a young boy, had never experienced big storms.This time, he just thought that he was going to the gambling shop to recognize people, but he didn't expect it to take so long, and he almost lost his life.

After Chang An cried enough, Bai Ji brought him a bowl of soup, and then he began to tell Jiang Lin what happened.

Chang An: "I've seen all those men who have done skin and meat business with Nuan Xin in the gambling shop. Only a few people are not found. We found out that these people were recommended by Nuan Xin to come to this gambling shop. Nuan Xin said that there is a way to make them earn a lot of money."

"At the beginning, they made a lot of money. In the first two days, they won steadily without losing, then they won less and lost more, and then they started to lose all the time. Some people stopped gambling, but they often met someone calling them to gamble, even if they didn't go out and stayed at home, they would be approached.

Later, when the gambling addiction became infected, there was no need for anyone to yell, and they would feel uncomfortable if they didn't gamble a few times a day.Those who lost would go bankrupt and sell their children and daughters.

"We originally confirmed that everyone was in the gambling house and wanted to come back, but when we came out of the gambling shop that day, we happened to bump into a man who had just lost his property and came home in a daze. Xun Qi said that we should follow him and have a look. As a result, someone moved faster than us, and as soon as the man entered the alley, he was knocked out and wrapped in a sack. Xun Qi and kept following behind, and then we found that they have arrested a lot of people with this method! "

Chang An's tone was full of surprised, and he was also surprised by the scene he saw. These people were locked in a room, tied up with hemp rope, gagged and not allowed to speak, and the few remaining people who had done skin and meat business with Nuan Xin were also there.

Xun Qi originally asked Chang An to come back and report the news, but there were some masters in the that place, and Chang An didn't know kung fu, so he was arrested before he even went out, and then he was tied up in the room together.

Chang An was arrested, but Xun Qi didn't leave, and kept guarding nearby for three days. The people in that room were almost starved to death, and they were sent outside the city.

There was a quarry not far from Shengjing. These people were sent to work as hard labor in the quarry. They worked as coolies during the day and were trained as soldiers at night. There were thousands of people in the whole quarry, all of them were like this.

He suffered a lot in the quarry, but Chang An also heard a lot of news. All the people in the quarry were kidnapped because of prostitution or gambling, and lost their money. There were also those from Shenjing and other places. It had been almost a year since the first one came to this place.

The supervisors who guarded them would take a group of people away after a while, and those who left never came back. No one knew where they went, but someone quietly revealed that they were spotted by some superior and they went to enter the barracks, and after entering the barracks they didn't have to do hard work like in the quarry, so many people wanted to be taken away.

There were also people who couldn't bear the hardship and want to escape, but they would be caught back soon. The end result was to chop off their heads in front of everyone, so as to deter the rest and prevent them from escaping again.

After hearing what he wanted, Xun Qi wanted to take Chang An away. His kung fu skills were fine but Chang An who knew nothing about kung fu would be easy to be discovered. There were several masters watching near the quarry, so he couldn't find a chance easily.

Because the time dragged on for too long, Xun Qi was afraid that the general would be worried, so he wanted to give it a go. In the end, he was discovered. Xun Qi led Chang An all the way to flee in the opposite direction from Shengjing, fearing that his identity would cause trouble to the Wei family.
