    ?

    Zhou Heng smiled lightly when he heard the two people's answers.

    It seems that he has a plan in mind.

    "Feng Zheng arranges two rooms for the two of you, and I want to ask questions alone." Zhou Heng asked Feng Zheng to arrange separate rooms for the shopkeeper and the accountant.

    The topic has already started, and Zhou Heng doesn't believe that he can't find some evidence from these two people.

    Hearing that a separate room was arranged and asked questions alone, the shopkeeper and the accountant began to panic, and they didn't understand what Zhou Heng meant.

    Moreover, Zhou Heng came suddenly, and both of them were at a loss.

    The room is arranged.

    "My lord, can we start?"

    Feng Zheng came down and asked Zhou Heng.

    "Wait, before asking questions, let them both be nervous. You take a group of people to walk back and forth outside their room, making the noise louder so that both of them can hear."

    Zhou Heng asked Feng Zheng to go over to create a tense atmosphere for the shopkeeper and the accountant.

    A quarter of an hour passed.

    Both the shopkeeper and the accountant were very anxious, and their expressions became uneasy. Neither of them knew what the other would say. Looking at the situation outside the door, this matter was more serious than the two of them imagined.

    "My lord, are you guessing that one of these two people is Xu Ang's?"

    Sang Hong understood what Zhou Heng meant.

    "That's right, if it's an exchange of ordnance, how can he come in if no one inside opens the door for him!" Zhou Heng told Sang Hong about his guess.

    "Then what if it's their own people?"

    Sang Hong said that the person who opened the door might not be the shopkeeper or the accountant, but it might be Xu Ang's own person, or someone from Taibai Villa.

    "You are right, but there is such a possibility, but there are many guests' carriages, servants, and attendants parked in the backyard of the restaurant. Do you think they can replace the ordnance without anyone noticing?"  Is it? The only possibility is that someone is helping them in the restaurant."

    Zhou Heng guessed.

    There must be someone in the restaurant to help Xu Ang and the others hold back the guests of the restaurant so that they cannot come to the backyard of the restaurant.

    And the one who can do this must be someone with status in the restaurant.

    Therefore, Zhou Heng concluded that it was either the shopkeeper or the accountant, and one of them must be related to Xu Ang.

    They are responding to Xu Ang internally.

    Two quarters of an hour passed before Zhou Heng got up slowly, "Go and have a look, I believe both of them have something to say to me." Zhou Heng smiled.

    Come to the shopkeeper's room.

    Zhou Heng pushed the door open and came in, seeing the terrified look on the shopkeeper's face, with a face of not doing anything wrong, as if he was frightened by something.

    "The treasurer!"

    "His Royal Highness King Qi!"

    The moment the shopkeeper saw Zhou Heng, he immediately stepped forward to salute.

    "Well, sit down!"

    Zhou Heng asked the shopkeeper to sit down.

    "Thank you Your Highness!"

    After the shopkeeper said thank you, he didn't dare to sit down. He felt a bad premonition.

    "Do you know your mistake?" Zhou Heng looked at the shopkeeper of the restaurant in front of him while speaking, and saw that the shopkeeper didn't seem to understand the meaning of his words, Zhou Heng continued, "No, it should be you who should be convicted."

    Zhou Heng corrected his words.

    "I don't know what His Royal Highness King Qi means?"

    "How long do you want to hide the fact that you colluded with Xu Ang to exchange ordnance? I already know about it. It's better for you to plead guilty."

    Seeing the shopkeeper, Zhou Heng still didn't understand the meaning of his words, so he reminded the shopkeeper again.

    "I'm wronged, I've never done such a thing, please enlighten me, Your Highness."

    After hearing Zhou Heng's words, the shopkeeper immediately knelt on the ground. You can't talk nonsense about this matter. If you really put such a hat on yourself, you will be the result of being hacked into pieces.

    "It's no use begging me, that's the truth, isn't it?"

    Zhou Heng asked with a smile.

    "No, no, Your Highness, you can't listen to other people's nonsense. I don't know anything about this. I didn't even go to the restaurant that day."

    The shopkeeper hurriedly explained to Zhou Heng.

    "No more restaurants?" Zhou Heng didn't seem to believe it. Zhou Heng observed carefully, and the shopkeeper didn't look like a liar.

    "That's right, I'm in Kisaragi Tower that day!"

    The shopkeeper saidWhere you are that day.

    "The Kisaragi Tower?"

    Zhou Hengxin said that this was an unexpected event.

    "That's right, to be honest, I'm dating a girl from Ruyue Tower, and I'm thinking of redeeming her in a few days, so I happened to go over to discuss this matter with her that day."

    The shopkeeper of the restaurant told Zhou Heng about the situation that day.

    "Your Highness, if you don't believe me, you can go to Ruyue Tower to check this matter and find out. I am not lying at all. If I am lying, I am willing to die without a burial place."

    The shopkeeper looked at Zhou Heng, worried that Zhou Heng would not believe what he said, so he immediately swore a poisonous oath.

    "Okay, let me believe what you said." Zhou Heng got up and came out of the room after hearing what the shopkeeper said. After he came out, Zhou Heng came to the room of Mr. Cashier.

    "Cao Min met His Royal Highness King Qi!"

    Compared with the shopkeeper, the cashier in front of him seemed much more stable and calm.

    "The shopkeeper said that it was you who colluded with Xu Ang to exchange the ordnance, and you opened the door for Xu Ang. Do you have anything to say?" Zhou Heng asked directly when he came in.

    "Your Highness, why did you say such a thing, I don't even know about it."

    The accountant said blankly,

    "Your Highness, he must be slandering me in this matter. I have never done such a thing, and who is Xu Ang? I am just a lowly accountant. How can I know someone like Xu Ang?"

    After hearing Zhou Heng's words, Mr. Accountant immediately began to defend himself. What he said was also well-founded, and no one could find any flaws.

    But Zhou Heng discovered a problem.

    Mr. Accountant's defense, the reasons for proving his innocence, are all without any factual basis, which means they cannot be confirmed.

    Unlike what the shopkeeper said, he has a friend in Kisaragi Tower, if you don't believe him, you can go and investigate, as long as you investigate, you will find out.

    This is based on facts.

    But the accountant's words are all empty words, and they sound like a lot of truth, but they don't have the slightest foundation.

    Whoever said that a lowly status cannot get acquainted with Xu Ang.

    "You don't need to know Xu Ang, but you know Xu Ning. Through Xu Ning, you can know Xu Ang. I remember that there are a lot of Xu Ning's credits in your restaurant's account book. Don't you know?"

    Zhou Heng asked the person in front of him.

    "Returning to Your Highness, Xu Ning is the Marquis of Ning Hai. If he wants to pay on credit, what can we do? We can only give him credit. Over the years, he has not paid us back any of his credit."

    The accountant explained to Zhou Heng.

    "And in the entire Daning City, any restaurant or shop has Xu Ning's credit."

    The accountant added one last sentence.

    Although Xu Ning is domineering, there is one thing that is very disciplined, that is, anywhere in Daning City, Xu Ning will never eat for free.

    Xu Ning would rather let you write down how much money you owe on credit in the account book than let you waive the bill.

    Of course, it is one thing to pay on credit, but it is another thing for Xu Ning to not pay back the money.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
