Capítulo 401: Chapter 401: To Have Such a Dream (6)_1

It seems that Magistrate Wu has already started to make his move.

Zhao Yaocheng had been investigated before, but this time, Wu Dongsi's investigation clearly carried a malicious intent, as if determined to find something to pin on him. Few in the Government Office were clean—if one were to purposefully scrutinize him, certainly some minor faults could be unearthed. Even if they couldn't convict him of any crime, it would still be enough to give him a hard time!

The Zhao family members began to grow anxious, fearing that Pei Qin was scheming behind their backs to bring down Zhao Yaocheng as retribution for helping Pei Wenli achieve his Scholar status. They still intended to bring Pei Qin into their family through marriage, but if this incident escalated, or if Zhao Yaocheng lost his position at the Government Office, and Magistrate Wu stood by Pei Qin's side, then even if they held a marriage contract, without backing, they couldn't win the lawsuit!
