Great, it's just a lackey, we're saved!

Chapter 80: The arrest warrant will not be issued for the time being!

"Lord Qiu, I trouble you to investigate this case. If you have any leads, please send someone to the Princess's residence to inform me." Zhou Wei bowed.

Qiu Ming immediately said, "Auntie, you're too kind. I will personally go to the Princess's residence to report to you."

Ziyu covered her mouth and chuckled, "Lord Qiu, you are now a third-rank commander. Our Sister Wei, although she was appointed as the military commander by the princess, is only a fifth-rank official. In terms of rank, you don't need to use the word 'report'."

Qiu Ming's expression turned serious, and he said earnestly, "I owe my success today to Aunt Zhou's guidance!"

"Although the position of Commander of the Embroidered Robes is decided by the Eldest Princess, how could I have caught her eye without Aunt Zhou's kind words?"

"This is a great kindness that I have shown me, and I will remember it for the rest of my life."

Zhou Wei smiled and said nothing more. At this moment, an embroidered messenger rode up to the Five Cities Military Command.

After dismounting, he bowed to Qiu Mingna.

"Your subordinate, Wang Wu, greets the Commander!"

Although Qiu Ming was newly appointed, he was extremely composed and waved for the other party to stand up.

What brings you here?

Wang Wu had met Qiu Ming when he handed over the Mei family of four.

At that time, Qiu Ming was just the garrison commander of the South City, a low-ranking military officer. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, he became the new commander.

Such a fortunate turn of events is truly enviable!

"Sir, the family of four you personally delivered a few days ago escaped from prison last night."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Ming was first startled, then looked at Zhou Wei.

The Mei family of four was imprisoned in Zhaoyu Prison at Zhou Wei's behest. Now that they have escaped, it remains to be seen how Zhou Wei will handle the situation.

Wang Wu lowered his head, waiting for Qiu Ming to give instructions.

After a while, Qiu Ming asked Zhou Wei, "Auntie, should we issue a warrant for arrest?"

Zhou Wei thought for a moment and looked at Wang Wu: "I remember that the family of four was locked up with Su Yunjin, the owner of the Jinlou on Zouma Street. What happened to Su Yunjin?"

Wang Wu didn't recognize Zhou Wei, but judging from Qiu Ming's attitude, he knew that the person in front of him was no ordinary person.

He immediately replied respectfully, "Reporting to Aunt, Su Yunjin was seriously injured and was taken away last night by General Lu Ming of the Five Cities Garrison."

"Oh? What kind of serious injury?"

"When General Lu and I entered the cell, we found Su Yunjin covered in blood, with a huge wound on her abdomen and her face disfigured."

Qiu Ming raised an eyebrow and said, "A torn abdomen? Covered in blood? Then this woman is probably not going to survive."

"Not necessarily," Zhou Wei said confidently.

Su Yunjin possesses a spiritual spring space, which is incredibly magical.

In the original book, no matter how severe her injuries were, they could be repaired by the space.

Although the abdominal tear was fatal, as long as she could enter the space in time, none of this would be a problem.

Qiu Ming didn't know how Zhou Wei made her judgment, but Zhou Wei must have her reasons for saying so.

Qiu Ming then asked something else: "Wang Wu, Su Yunjin is imprisoned in Zhaoyu Prison, who would hurt her?"

"My lord, according to my investigation, the chains in the cells of the four members of the Mei family were torn off by human hands, and the same was true for Su Yunjin's cell."

"I suspect that the Mei family of four injured someone and then fled to avoid punishment."

Zhou Wei nodded; Wang Wu's judgment was accurate.

However, Jiang Nianyue alone could not have accomplished this.

Then there's only one possibility: Yuanxing has awakened!

Yuanxing is essentially a wicked monk who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

If one path is blocked, he will try other paths, even if those paths seem crooked or unorthodox to others, he doesn't care.

Yuanxing had been lurking inside Jiang Nianyue's body without waking up, but yesterday it suddenly took the initiative.

There's only one possibility: something is strongly attracting him.

Make him get it at all costs!

Qiu Ming was completely bewildered and couldn't understand what grudge the Mei family of four had against Su Yunjin.

Why did you have to injure her so badly?

He even had some doubts about whether Wang Wu's judgment was accurate.

"Wang Wu, it's too early to make a hasty judgment about who injured Su Yunjin."

“On that day, when I escorted Su Yunjin to the Zhao prison, I conducted a thorough body search and found that she had no money on her.”

"The Mei family of four injured her without any reason, and at the very least... they won't gain anything in return..."

Zhou Wei knew, however, that Yuan Xing must have obtained an incredible opportunity from Su Yunjin!

Otherwise, given his cautious and prudent nature, how could he have acted so ruthlessly, leaving himself no way out?

Afterwards, did he even escape from prison?

The most precious thing Su Yunjin possesses is the spiritual spring space.

What one gains through circularity must be related to the spiritual spring in the space.

“Lord Qiu!” Zhou Wei interrupted Qiu Ming, “Wang Wu’s judgment is correct. Su Yunjin must have been injured by the Mei family of four.”

Upon hearing this, Qiu Ming immediately stopped arguing.

"Since Aunt says so, it must be true."

Wang Wu was stunned when he heard this. I said I had investigated it myself, but you didn't believe me.

So you believed Aunt Zhou just because she said one thing?

Is this woman your mother? She's so obedient.

Qiu Ming felt Wang Wu's gaze, but didn't care at all.

Zhou Wei is not his mother, but she is more than a mother to him; she is like a second mother to him!

He had seen people improve by jogging, but how many people in the entire Zhou Dynasty could improve like him by riding a rocket?

Qiu Ming asked Zhou Wei again, "Aunt, now that Su Yunjin was injured by the Mei family of four and the evidence is conclusive, should we issue an arrest warrant?"

"Once the arrest warrant is issued, the Embroidered-Robed Envoys will be able to search the entire city tomorrow."

"If they cannot be found in the capital, arrest warrants can be issued nationwide. Upon receiving them, all provinces and prefectures will do their utmost to capture them."

Zhou Wei hesitated, perhaps not answering, while Qiu Ming waited respectfully.

After a long while, Zhou Wei smiled and said, "Lord Qiu, this arrest warrant—do not issue!"

Not sending it?

Qiu Ming was puzzled. The four members of the Mei family were inherently cruel, especially Jiang Nianyue, who was born with superhuman strength.

Not only did he injure Zhou Wei, but he also seriously injured Su Yunjin while imprisoned in the Zhaoyu Prison.

This kind of person is extremely dangerous!

Having suffered such a great loss at Zhou Wei's hands, it's understandable that he might harbor malicious intentions and plot revenge.

Qiu Ming advised, "Aunt, you should make a clean break now. Don't give this family of four a chance to take revenge on you."

Ziyu was also still shaken: "Yes, Sister Wei! That little brat was terrifying. My heart pounds just thinking about him."

"If we don't arrest him, won't he come after us?"

“If the Mei family of four comes, I’ll be waiting. I was just regretting that I didn’t teach them a lesson they weren’t satisfied with last time!” Zhou Wei said, then looked at Qiu Ming. “However, Lord Qiu, although the arrest warrant can be withheld, it must be made!”

What does this mean?

Qiu Ming was puzzled, but since it was Zhou Wei's order, he naturally did as she instructed.

Zhou Wei added, "Lord Qiu, please remember to write today's date on all arrest warrants, affix the seal of the Embroidered Uniform Commander, and keep them on file."

Qiu Ming was even more confused by this approach.

Zhou Wei couldn't explain it to him either.

Mei Xingyue and her son came to the capital to find Prince Jiang Yueshan and reconcile with him.

In the original novel, with the help of her pregnancy with triplets, Mei Xingyue successfully became the Crown Princess.

He became an incomparably noble person in the Great Zhou royal family!

Now, she not only has two children to help her, but also the wicked monk Yuanxing, who has gained great fortune, by her side.

Achieving your goal will probably be even simpler than the original story!

This arrest warrant was prepared for Mei Xingyue, the Crown Princess.

The day she was made a concubine was the day this wanted poster resurfaced!

If the people of the Great Zhou knew that the future mother of the nation was actually a wanted criminal who had assaulted someone and escaped from prison, what would they think?

Zhou Wei smiled and said, "Lord Qiu, this document is a treasure; please keep it safe."

"Perhaps even the Crown Prince will come begging to you in the future!"
