Chapter 387: That wouldn't be good

A few days ago, Shi Qingluo had received an invitation from King Jin's residence for the flower banquet.

King Jin's secondary consort, who liked to hold banquets, not only invited the family members of the officials in Northern City to attend, but she also sent invitations to the county magistrates and madams in various counties.

At that time, Shi Qingluo knew that King Jin had other intentions.

The invitation to everyone was just a cover, and it was definitely directed at her.

Shi Qingluo wasn't afraid of King Jin's actions.

Instead, she was afraid that he wouldn't make a move.

So she decided to go to Northern City for a while.

It would be a pity to miss out on the show at the deputy governor's residence.

Xiao Hanzheng held Shi Qingluo's hand.

"I'll send someone to protect you in secret. Be careful when you're in North City."

King Jin had sent an invitation this time. If his wife didn't go, there would definitely be a second or third time.

It would be better to go and explore from the beginning.

"Don't worry." Shi Qingluo said with a smile. "Xi Rong will accompany me. Even if King Jin wants to rope us in, he won't do anything to us."

She blinked at Xiao Hanzheng. "I'm going to see the show at your scumbag father's house. I'll tell you when I come back."

"Alright, I'll wait for you to tell me when you come back." Xiao Hanzheng sneered.

Since his wife liked to watch the show, he would let her be.

Shi Qingluo held his hand and laughed, "If your scumbag father knew that I'm going to North City, would he be so surprised that he'd cry?"

"Definitely." Xiao Hanzheng said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

The two of them talked for a while and became intimate.

After all, they wouldn't see each other for almost ten days to half a month.

The next morning.

Ge Chunru and the others were also released from the prison.

Xiao Hanzheng had deliberately released them today so that Ge Chunru's subordinates would see her embarrassing state.

As expected, when Xiao Yuanshi's personal attendant saw Ge Chunru's disheveled hair, wrinkled clothes, and haggard face, he didn't pity her, but was more disgusted.

This was too embarrassing for his master.

However, no matter what, she was still his Madam.

He could only smile and step forward. "Madam, the deputy governor sent us to take you home."

Ge Chunru had been locked up for more than ten days.

She had not slept or eaten well. She had never suffered like this.

She wasn't very happy to see Xiao Yuanshi's personal attendant.

"Where's Xiao Yuanshi? Why didn't he come? And why did you guys come to pick me up so late?"

The personal attendant was speechless. How could he blame his master?

"Madam, the general has just taken over as the deputy governor and can't leave North City, so he sent me to pick you up. We can't do anything about it for the time being. If the county government doesn't let him go, our deputy governor can't possibly bring people to forcibly let him go, right? You were released because the general used more than twenty mature craftsmen he had recruited over the years to exchange for you."
