The Regent's Little Wife

Chapter 154 Shadow and Broken Army

"Okay... But if you ask us to find someone, we will need to send more people, and it may take a long time. May I ask the employer... Is this person in Beili or somewhere else?"

"He is in Beili now..."

"Okay... We'll take this order, employer. This is the quotation. If you think it's okay, we can sign a contract..."

Si Nan looked at the price, 10,000 taels of silver. He felt a little distressed. This price was really expensive, no wonder many people couldn't afford to hire them. But once they were hired, as long as they took action, there was nothing they couldn't do.

"There's nothing wrong with this offer... Here's a silver note for three thousand taels. If the matter is done, I will give you the remaining seven thousand taels... as promised..." Si Nan took out the silver note.

At this time Leng Wushang took out the contract and handed it to Si Nan. Si Nan had never seen what a contract was. This contract was newly added by Sang Ning and was in two copies.

Although this contract had no legal effect in ancient times. But Sang Ning said that the contract was to guarantee the rights and interests of both parties. We do things for them and they pay us. If they don't pay, we will do it according to the contract. Although Sang Ning knew that there were some people who liked to default on their debts. But Luosha Pavilion had their own way to deal with it, and they could get the money back in the end. But no one in the world dared to persuade Luosha Pavilion to pay.

"Employer, this is a contract... You can take a detailed look at the contents of the contract. If you agree, you can sign it. There are two copies. You can take one copy with you and leave it with us. But don't worry, although we have kept a copy of this contract, it will never be leaked. We are firm in our Luosha Pavilion, so you can rest assured. We are very safe here..."

Si Nan took the so-called contract. The paper and words on the contract were very strange. Because the paper they used was rice paper, but this paper was a little harder than rice paper, and the words on the paper were also very strange. This didn't look like it was written with a brush. Why was it so small this time? Who could write such small words?

The contracts were all printed by Sang Ning in the space, using modern technology. Si Nan looked at the contents of the contract, which were very clear. He needed to pay a 30% deposit first, and then pay the balance of 70%. Si Nan signed the contract happily.

Sang Ning signed the contract in the current way. He gave a copy to Si Nan. Leng Wushang gave a few more instructions to the waiter to send Si Nan out.

After leaving the restaurant, Si Nan looked at the contract. He dared not keep it with him. It was a hot potato. So he tore the contract into pieces.

Leng Wushang, he looked at the portrait, then at the name.

Si Yuan... He called in the assassin from Luosha Pavilion. He showed the portrait of Si Yuan to the two men.

These two people are Leng Wushang's men, they do things cleanly and efficiently. They never drag their feet. He is very relieved to leave this matter to them.

"Go check this person... see where exactly he is hiding... and then get rid of him... you two brothers can decide how to get rid of him." Leng Wushang didn't say much, but what he said was very clear. What he meant was to find this person and kill him, and the mission would be accomplished.

The two brothers were named Shadow and Pojun. They had photographic memories and were among the best in Luosha Pavilion in terms of both martial arts and martial arts.

The two of them worked very well together, and they also had certain connections. It only took them three days to find this person named Si Yuan.

This man named Si Yuan lives in Nanfeng Pavilion. It seems that someone is secretly protecting this man named Si Yuan.

In the past few days, Sang Ning also met this man named Si Yuan. Although Si Yuan's statement on the complaint was very clear, he still wanted to ask the man in person.

Si Yuan was a Jinshi with honors. He could have served as an official in the court, but because of his mother's death, he refused. He is now determined to seek justice for his mother.

So he asked around and found out about the prince. He heard that although the prince was a woman, this woman was very fair. And at present, the prince was basically regent. So, he stopped the prince's carriage. He wanted the prince to make the decision for him. He also knew that stopping the prince's carriage in the street was disrespectful. But for his mother and to find a way out for himself, he had to do this.

"You are quite courageous... If I had ordered your execution at that time... it would also be within the laws of Beili. Aren't you afraid of this?" Sang Ning asked with some confusion.

Si Yuan remained kneeling on the ground and did not stand up. Sang Ning did not ask him to stand up, and he did not dare to stand up. He could only kneel down and answer.

"Your Highness... I already have one foot in the grave, so I am no longer afraid of my own life or death. Even if Your Highness executes me that day, I will have to accept my fate." Si Yuan looks somewhat similar to the three brothers Si Nan and Si Qi. However, Si Yuan looks a little older than the two, and he looks very sad. His mother was killed, and his father did not accept him. Living in such a family is really pitiful.

"I can't just listen to your one-sided story. I've already asked someone to investigate this matter. If what you said is true, I will give your mother and you justice. But if you lied to me... you will die miserably, do you know that? So are you sure you want me to help you seek justice?"

Sang Ning asked again and again, because he was not sure whether what the other party said was true or false, because he did not believe the man in front of him, nor did he believe what Si Nan said, he only believed the facts. Because it is also possible that you are here to act and say it deliberately for me to hear.

"What I said is all true... Your Highness, please investigate. I believe that if Your Highness investigates this matter, you will definitely seek justice for my mother. I would like to thank Your Highness on behalf of my mother..." After saying this, Si Yuan kowtowed.

"Okay, you get up first... You can stay here for the next few days. Don't worry, it's very safe here. Someone will protect you. If you need anything, just tell them. By the way, I've seen your information. You are a Jinshi. Why don't you serve as an official in the court after you passed the imperial examination?"

"Your Highness... I have only one request now, which is to seek justice for my mother. If I can seek justice for my mother, I will not mind dying..." As an ancient man, it was not easy for Si Yuan to pass the imperial examination. Unlike the many doctors in modern times, it was much more difficult to pass the imperial examination in those days. He actually gave up the imperial examination.

Si Yuan... There is indeed such a person in the book I read. I remember that he seemed to be the Minister of Revenue. The original book did not explain his background, but only said that this person was the Minister of Revenue, and he was also an honest official.

Since this person has passed the imperial examination, if what he said is true. I helped him clear his mother's grievances and brought this person under my banner. Although I am now the crown prince, some officials do not think highly of me. They think that I am a woman and cannot accomplish anything great. They look at my second brother. Having seen so many royal families fighting for power, I have to plan for myself.
