The next day, early morning.

City Lord’s Mansion, front hall.

"Do you know where the butler went?"

Tang Hong found that he had not seen the housekeeper early in the morning, so he asked the servant not far away.

"Return to the city lord, the villain didn't see the housekeeper in the morning."

A servant bent down and replied.

"Is there something urgent to go out?"

Tang Hong guessed.

Although this kind of thing rarely happens, it has not happened before.

Forget it, let’s put the housekeeper’s affairs aside first, and it is the main thing to call Lord Chu and Mr. Chu.

"You go and invite Lord Chu and Master Chu to have breakfast."

Tang Hong ordered to the servants.

Although there was no housekeeper, the servants had already prepared a sumptuous breakfast.

"yes."

The servant nodded and replied, just as he was about to step out of the threshold, Chu Zhan and Chu Feng appeared in the front hall.

"Lord Tang, don't bother them anymore, we are here."

Chu Zhan smiled slightly.

"Mr. Chu, Mr. Chu, come and have breakfast quickly. This is the special pastry I ordered people to go to the neighboring city to purchase yesterday."

"There are also rice porridge made of fresh rice, including sea cucumbers, abalone, and wolfberry..."

Tang Hong introduced the things on the table one by one.

"Lord Tang is intent."

Chu Zhan said with a smile.

Chu Feng nodded slightly.

"Mr. Chu, Mr. Chu, I'll serve you a bowl of porridge."

Tang Hong enthusiastically first served Chu Zhan a bowl of porridge. In the porridge, there were average sea cucumbers and abalone, but there were a lot of wolfberry.

Among the porridge Tang Hong gave Chu Fengsheng, there were a large number of sea cucumbers and abalone, and there were very few wolfberry.

"By the way, Lord Tang, where is Miss Bailian?"

"I believe that at most one hour, those who have background checks on the White Lotus girl will return."

Chu Zhan asked after biting the tender and juicy abalone.

The juice is everywhere and it is accompanied by a salty smell, which is definitely the best abalone.

"Then I will send someone to invite Miss Bailian immediately."

"Come, go and invite Miss Bailian."

Tang Hong ordered his servants.

"yes."

The servant rushed to Bailian's residence immediately.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the man returned panting and then bowed and said, "Go back to the city lord, Miss Bailian is not in the small courtyard, I don't know where she went."

"The person is gone?"

Tang Hong was stunned, then frowned without a trace and muttered: "Why did this white lotus disappear early in the morning? Could it be that he had something to go out?"

"Lord Tang, since this Bai Lian is not in the mansion, do you know how to contact her?"

Chu Zhan put down his bowls and chopsticks and asked.

"I don't know this official."

Tang Hong's face showed a look of embarrassment.

These days, because Bai Lian lives in the city lord's mansion and hasn't gone out much, Tang Hong did not ask for Bai Lian's contact information.

"Since that's the case, it seems that I can only wait for Miss Bailian to come back before notifying her of the investigation results."

"If time is rushed, then City Lord Tang will tell you."

Chu Zhan thought for a while and said.

He is the censor and there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the royal city. He cannot spend it all the time in the upper city.

"That's a great honor for the officials."

Tang Hong nodded and then opened his mouth, hesitating for a moment, but finally didn't speak.

And this scene naturally fell into Chu Zhan's eyes.

"Lord Tang City, in order to fight the plague, the White Lotus girl has the best contribution on the ground, and you have good management and dispatching, this is the second contribution."

"After this censor returns to the royal city, he will definitely report all this to the king."

Chu Zhan patted Tang Hong on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Although Tang Hong just opened his mouth and didn't speak, Chu Zhan, who had a keen intuition in the officialdom, immediately knew what Tang Hong wanted to ask.

"ah?"

"That's great!"

After hearing Chu Zhan's words, Tang Hong immediately showed a bright smile on his face.

In his life, he only had three major pursuits, promotion and wealth, and his wife died.

He made a fortune and died, and now he was only promoted. Chu Zhan's words hit his heart. How could he not be excited?

"Mr. Chu, this is the only thing that the officials have to do."

Tang Hong took out the gift he had prepared from his arms and stuffed it into Chu Zhan's hands.

"Lord Tang, you are so polite. This censor went to Shangcheng for official business this time."

Chu Zhan waved his hands repeatedly to refuse, but his eyes were staring at the gift in Tang Hong's hand.

"Master Chu was exhausted, and the day he came, the old official did not greet him because of the matter. It was a sin."

"My sir must accept it, otherwise the officials will be dissatisfied with their conscience."

Tang Hong said sincerely.

Seeing this, Chu Zhan deliberately showed a look of embarrassment on his face. Then he turned his eyes and pointed his eyes at Chu Feng beside him.

"Feng'er, what should I do if you say that City Lord Tang has such good intentions?"

Chu Feng continued to taste the plump wolfberry, then rolled his eyes and said, "What can I do? Smoothing cold!"

There was no trace of good anger in the voice.

I obviously want to accept it, but I still have to come and ask me.

Hearing this, Chu Zhan shook his face, then shook his head, and "barely" accepted Tang Hong's gift.

Seeing this, Tang Hong, who was on the other side, immediately turned his hand and took out a gift from his arms again.

"Young Master Chu, you have worked hard along the way. This is a gift specially prepared by Xia Guan for you."

"Then thank you, Lord Tang."

Chu Feng did not speak a lot of official words like Chu Zhan, and directly accepted Tang Hong's gift.

Anyway, Chu Feng adhered to the principle that he should not be in vain, and he still wants it if he wants it.

"Mr. Chu, don't you know that Mr. Chu is married? If you don't have a marriage, I know many ladies from a family. You can introduce them to Mr. Chu."

Tang Hong said enthusiastically.

Obviously, he didn't know much about Chu Feng.

If Tang Hong knew that Chu Feng was an honorary elder of the Shushan Sword Sect, he would probably not dare to speak to Chu Feng with such an elder-like attitude.

"I'm not hiding the title of City Lord Tang, the woman who pursues Chu Feng can be placed from the Censor's Mansion to the Royal Palace, but Chu Feng doesn't like him. It's really worrying."

Chu Zhan sighed.

Chu Feng:???

This old man can say anything for the sake of face.

If I want to find a woman, I clearly lined up from the gate of the Censor's Mansion to the border of the Tang Dynasty!

"That's not because Mr. Chu is excellent."

Tang Hong, no matter whether what Chu Zhan said is true or not, just follow it.
