Chapter 26 Guessing

"The wound on Mrs. Yu's body?" After a while, Lai Changgui came to his senses and asked.

"The Qing Gang's work is to ask me about my whereabouts."

The two were chatting, and the girl singing the song walked in with her pipa in her arms.

"Master Sha." The girl saluted, "I don't know what you want to hear today?"

"How did you learn "Wang Ning Mei" that you asked you to practice a few days ago?"

"I have practiced it and am waiting for you to come. During my practice before, Mr. Xu heard it and liked it very much. He composed the song according to the tune. Is it appropriate to listen?"

"Mr. Xu, Doctor Xu from Huichuntang?" Chen Sheng was surprised.

The girl nodded and began to play with the pipa.

This couple is quite avant-garde. The couple plays their own games, their wives are good at acting, and their husbands are shopping in brothels.

"Doctor Xu looked at Duan Fang and was unexpectedly he was still a fellow disciple." Listening to the song, Chen Sheng said happily to Lai Changgui.

Lai Changgui shook his head: "Doctor Xu came to Wanhua Building, famously not to be a girl or stay overnight. It is said to be to mourn the dead."

"Mourning the Dead?" Chen Sheng was intrigued, there was a story here.

Lai Changgui glanced at the girl singing the song and whispered: "This time Chuntang was originally the ancestral property of the Xie family. Dr. Xu was an apprentice. He was diligent and willing to endure hardships. He was talented. He got the eyes of the Xie family and devoted himself to cultivating and teaching medical skills. He also planned to betroth a girl from the Xie family to him."

"It was just that ten years ago, the Echeng City was in chaos, and the Xie family's family suffered a disaster, and more than a hundred people became dead souls. The girl from the Xie family who originally wanted to betrothed to Dr. Xu also fell to Wanhua Building, unable to bear the humiliation and committed suicide by hanging herself. Dr. Xu, who was grateful to the Xie family, took the lead in joining the Shen family and became the son-in-law of the Shen family. The Shen family could take over Huichuntang safely, and Dr. Xu made great efforts."

"Doctor Xu has no choice but to say about his medical skills. Is this kind of character..."

Lai Changgui said and shook his head to show his disdain: "He said it was a mourning, who would believe it?"

He is another complicated person, I don’t know how many layers of mask he has worn.

But these have nothing to do with Chen Sheng. I have heard of the old story ten years ago, just reminding Chen Sheng that the characters in the plot are not NPCs, and human nature is complicated and should not just look at the surface.

Speaking of which, the Shen family has a lot of industries. Chen Sheng lives in the Shen family, Wanhualou belongs to the Shen family, and even Huichuntang belongs to the Shen family. Is there anything else in this Goose City that is not the Shen family?

The three major families in Echeng are now the only ones left in the Shen family, and their wealth and power have reached their peak.

In this case, what else can Mr. Shen not do? He asked him to do it?

After singing the song, Chen Sheng didn't listen to a few words and was still thinking about Mr. Shen's affairs, but there was too little information and he had no clue.

"Has something special happened in Goose City recently?"

"What's the special thing?" Lai Changgui was confused when asked.

"Everything is OK, it's mainly a big deal, it's happened in the past few days."

"If you talk about a big thing in this small place in Echeng, there will be one thing recently." Lai Changgui thought for a while and said, "Recently, many people in the city are clamoring to let Bai Wuchang and his gang join the security team to be responsible for suppressing bandits and protecting the country and the people, and it is a very fierce thing."

Bai Wuchang and Xie Shen, Chen Sheng had heard Lai Changgui mention this person before.

It was originally the eldest son of the Xie family. When the Xie family suffered a disaster, they were only in their teens and were protected by loyal servants and escaped.

Ten years ago, Echeng was in chaos and bandits entered the city. Many people became greedy and followed suit.

Zhang Mazi started out in the past, killing big families and robbing bunkers.

However, Zhang Mazi was the county magistrate at the time, and no one held him accountable afterwards.

The bandits who robbed Xie's leader were bandits. These people who took action were afraid of settlement after the fall. When the bandits retreated, they also ran away and went outside the city to become bandits.

When Xie Shen grew up, it was said that he was both civil and military, and was determined to take revenge. He pulled a group of people outside the city, all of whom had their relatives died at the hands of bandits and wanted to take revenge, and he specifically fought against the bandits.

In order to distinguish it from the bandits, this group of people all tied white filial piety belts on their arms, so they are called Bai Wuchang.

The Huang, Xie and Chen families worked for Liu Dutong at that time, selling opium, encouraging people to traffic in humans, and doing all the bad things, and they were not considered good people.

However, the Xie family passed down the family medicine and claimed to be a scholarly family. They also need some face, which is much more restrained than the other two families.

On weekdays, he also does some good deeds of helping the poor and adopting orphans, so his reputation is the best among the three families.

Now Xie Shen is doing the fight against bandits again, and there are many people supporting him in the city.

"Has this been decided?" Chen Sheng asked.

"No, Mr. Shen doesn't express his opinion about this Goose City. No matter how fierce the others make, what's the point." Lai Changgui obviously didn't want Xie Shen and others to join the security team. When the newcomers came, wouldn't they have to stand aside?

Mr. Shen didn't make any statement, that was he wouldn't support him.

The military expenditure of the security team was raised by the whole city, so the residents of the city also have a say in the security team affairs. Mr. Shen is not easy to suppress, so it is a very obvious attitude if he doesn't express his opinion.

Everyone in the city wants to suppress bandits, so does Mr. Shen want to suppress bandits?

The answer is no. The security team is just a decoration. The military funds raised from the fund are greedy, and those with ability are pulled into their own guards. The security team keeps a few stinky fish and shrimps to make up for the number. This is Mr. Shen’s usual practice.

The security team is not strong enough to go out to the city to suppress bandits. The bandits outside the city are seriously in trouble and the business road is not smooth. Only the caravans of the Shen family can pass through. Isn’t this monopoly trading good?

If Xie Shen joined the security team and became the head of the security team, it would be difficult to operate.

Xie Shen was determined to suppress bandits, and the military expenditure must be used to recruit soldiers and horses to strengthen the security team's strength, so Mr. Shen lost a lot of income.

Xie Shen had a man who dared to fight and kill, and then he was given military expenses from the security regiment. If someone had guns and pay, it would be difficult to cure.

Moreover, because of the bandit suppression, Xie Shen was very popular in the city. In addition, the remaining connections of the Xie family were also a challenge to Mr. Shen's authority.

Mr. Shen opposed the suppression of bandits, but could not say it clearly.

Is he trying to get so many newspapers to send to the city people to help Chen Sheng become famous? Is he trying to grab a hot search?

Not only that, Chen Sheng took a sip of tea and thought silently that Mr. Shen was not without the intention of carrying Chen Sheng out and fighting with Xie Shen.

In the matter in Shanghai, it can be seen that Chen Sheng is a thriller and it is very likely that he will even make enemies with Xie Shen.

Then the two of them will be beaten to death, and Mr. Shen will hide aside to watch the show, and the amount of money will be spent on some newspapers and verbal flattery. Wouldn't it be very clever?

Although Chen Sheng has just left school and has no social experience, his knowledge is not low. After all, he comes from later generations, and this kind of routine TV series and novels are often found in TV series and novels.

For example, if there is a big devil in the world, the old master of righteousness does not take action, but instead pushes out some young knights who are just starting out.

Send secret books and treasures, and make your reputation popular, so that you can fight against the big devil.

Is it very similar to Mr. Shen’s methods?

But it's not right. Xie Shen is clearly a positive person.

The family was born in a big family, and the whole family was dead. They were deeply resentful of blood and martial arts. They were both civil and military in their twenties. This is a perfect template for the protagonist.

So, am I the villain?

No, Mr. Shen is the villain.
