The detective said angrily: "Hey, let's go." After turning around and going back, he saw the people led by Wang Ling. He stepped forward and whispered a few words in Wang Ling's ear. Wang Ling had a bad smile on his face and lowered his voice.
He said in a loud voice: "Living in the same room all afternoon? It seems like the trip was in vain, but it would be nice to take them all back and make Zhang Luyao feel sick."
This sentence caused the detective to laugh obscenely, which happened to be seen by Zhang Qingrou in the distance. Zhang Qingrou had been secretly worried whether the little girl would spill the beans, but she felt relieved when she saw the detective came back in anger, thinking that the girl could help
Seeing that the old man had deceived so many people, and had seen such dangerous people in this world, his temperament could no longer be treated like an ordinary child's, and he sighed again in his heart. But seeing the expression of the policeman, his heart filled with hatred, and quietly accelerated.
He walked up to the policeman, and when he was passing by, he deliberately leaned against him with his shoulder, and then said angrily: "Good boy, if you dare to eat my aunt's tofu, you are seeking death!" As he said this, he kicked him hard.
He kicked the catcher hard in the waist.
The man screamed in pain and struggled to get up after falling to the ground. Just as he was about to say something, he was slapped so hard by Zhang Qingrou that his eyes were filled with stars. Five slender fingerprints were clearly visible on his face. Wang Ling was about to go up and dissuade him.
Zhang Qingrou turned around, pointed at Wang Ling's nose, and cursed: "You are full of dirty tricks! Wang Ling, I'm warning you, go back and punish this guy properly. If you let him go, see how I deal with you!"
Everyone was watching with their mouths agape. Wang Ling didn't want to get involved anymore, and she was even more jealous. She thought, sooner or later, Mr. Chen will deal with your family. But he could only say "haha" on his face, and motioned for the policeman to hide away, and then
After asking He Qizhou and learning that they both knew how to ride a horse, and Zhang Qingrou knew how to fight horses every two days, Wang Ling asked the three detectives to dismount and walk back. Anyway, it was only two miles away, and he led the horse team back to the government office.
After the messenger informed them, the prefect only asked Wang Ling to take the two of them to the living room. Of course, Zhang Qingrou also followed to watch the excitement.
When he saw Zhang Qingrou entering the living room first, Zhang Luyao immediately jumped up and shouted: "My aunt, alas, she's not home all day long. Some big thieves have come into the city. That kid Chen Qi has been kidnapped."
Oh, are you trying to make me anxious?"
Wang Ling, who followed later, didn't wait for Zhang Qingrou to speak, and said hurriedly: "Master magistrate, don't be anxious, the eldest lady and these two little brothers hit it off immediately, and they stayed in the guest room of Danguiju all afternoon, chatting very much." After saying this, he responded.
Chen Yan cast a questioning look and shook his head slightly.
Zhang Qingrou glared at Wang Ling fiercely and said loudly: "Wang Ling, be careful I tear your stupid mouth apart!" Then she said to Zhang Luyao: "Dad, they are friends of my junior brother, and they are also going to Jinling this time.
To participate in the provincial examination, you don’t need to send anyone to follow you. Let’s go to Jinling to find the master and junior brother together. Remember to prepare more expenses for me!”
Zhang Luyao was absolutely proud of his daughter. After all, not everyone can be a disciple of Quanzhen Master Yuan Che. He smiled and rolled his eyes and said softly: "Okay, okay, remember to ask Yuan Xian Master for dad."
Okay, if you want money, ask your mother for it. This is the chief arrester of Nanzhili, Master Longyin. Girl, please say hello to Master Long."
Zhang Qingrou gave Long Yin a blessing, and Long Yin was secretly shocked. Yuan Che's disciple? He was also a master who couldn't afford to offend. That fat man, who was as timid as a mouse, had a really good life. He gave birth to a daughter who was so beautiful, and he even climbed up to the top.
Yuan Che? Seeing Zhang Qingrou salute, he said with a smile: "A good niece doesn't need to be polite. I don't prepare any gifts because I have official duties. Remember to come to me when you come to Jinling. I will send someone to take you around Jinling City.
"
Zhang Qingrou thanked her carelessly, and Zhang Luyao said: "Mr. Chen, everyone is here. If you have anything to say, ask me immediately. Don't waste any more time. Don't let all the thieves get away."
At this time, Wang Ling whispered a few words next to Chen Yan, and Chen Yan said: "Your Majesty, your words are wrong. How dare you make arbitrary decisions on cases that happen in my office? Isn't this what I'm here to report to you?" After saying this,
After speaking, without waiting for the magistrate's reply, he turned directly to He Qizhou and the two of them, stared at Lin Chuan who was a little embarrassed and asked: "Little brother, a boatman saw you boating on the lake today. Have you met any acquaintances?"
Lin Chuan was stunned and replied: "What kind of boating? What kind of acquaintance? Besides, where are the boats on the lake?"
He Qizhou's heart tightened. Lin Chuan was really ignorant. If he continued to be asked like this, something would happen.
Although Wang Ling expressed that it was unlikely to be these two people, seeing Lin Chuan's guilty conscience, Chen Yan still wanted to blackmail this silly young man again, and he suspected that Li Jichen might have rescued them, so he had a pair of triangular eyes tightly
Staring into Lin Chuan's eyes, he continued to question: "Little brother, if you didn't go boating, how do you know there are no boats on the lake? I already know who the person who helped you punt is, maybe you don't know him yet? Do you want me?
Tell you?"
Lin Chuan realized that he had made a mistake and saw Chen Yan's gloomy face. He couldn't help but feel panicked. His face suddenly turned red and he said, "We have been chatting with the eldest lady in the afternoon and haven't gone anywhere."
He Qizhou hurriedly interjected: "You idiot, why are you blushing when we are walking around the rivers and lakes drinking tea and chatting with the heroines? I'm telling you, the boatman must have misjudged the wrong person. When we passed by Yangzhou Lake in the morning, we really wanted to go boating on the lake.
We just walked around for a short while without seeing a boat. Later, we heard from Miss Zhang that chartering a boat costs three qian per hour, which is too expensive for everyone. We thought about it and forgot about it. Miss Zhang said that the price of food in the city these days is
The prices were soaring and we were almost out of food. Who would spend money to go to the lake to enjoy the cold wind in this damn weather, so we didn’t go out in the afternoon.”
"Yes, Mr. Chen, after all, you are a co-president of the same government. You must quickly think of a way to make your boss earn less. At least, stop raising the price of the rice shop. There are so many people blocking the yamen gate all day long.
It's not a big deal. Besides, don't you have to report the case? Are you talking about the lake tour?" Zhang Luyao was also a little unhappy and intervened.
Chen Yan secretly mocked Zhang Luyao for being stupid. He couldn't see any flaws in He Qizhou's answer, but he didn't give up his doubts. Instead, he thought that this kid was much more cunning than the other one. The more comprehensive the explanation, the more
It was a bit too much force, trying to cover up the smell, so he stared at He Qizhou and said: "Some thieves escaped in a small boat. I think if you had also visited the lake, you might have found something, but I think the boatman recognized the wrong person."
After staring for a while, he saw that He Qizhou was quite calm and stopped talking. He faced Zhang Luyao and simply transferred Long Yin and Chi Yuan away from the mountain. He and Wei Jinxian were restrained, and the white scarf thief was rescued.
After talking about it, he said to Zhang Luyao with a serious face: "Master Zhang, you and I are not martial arts materials, but Master Long and Mr. Chi are sure that there are at least one or two masters hiding in secret.
The middle-aged man who appeared outside Jianghu Tower at noon and used gold ingots to attack was similar in stature and martial arts to the man who restrained Mr. Wei and I. I heard from Wang Ling that these two young men and Mr. Xu had a close conversation with that man.
Huan, so I want to know the identity and whereabouts of the other party." He Qizhou actually knew that the young man's name was Li Ruogu, but he really didn't know the name of the middle-aged man next to him. Since he was asking about a middle-aged man, he answered seriously: "
Are you talking about that middle-aged man? Well, that man was very rich. He gave away two big gold ingots. He didn't look like a bad guy. We just met. I heard that I was going to the capital, so I left in the afternoon. Mr. Xu also
Here, we didn’t say a few words. We didn’t whisper like Mr. Wang just now. We spoke quite loudly. Mr. Wang and the three young masters named Chen were also there. They should have heard and seen them.
Yes, we really don’t know their identities.”
Zhang Luyao said in a deep voice: "Mr. Chen, I don't have to keep an eye on that line. I have registered the two gold ingots in the account room. I will go to the bank tomorrow to exchange the silver to buy grain for disaster relief. I have both gold ingots."
The seal of the Ministry of Revenue should be a reward from the government, you can take a look at it later."
Chen Yan's heart skipped a beat. The body of the white-turbaned thief was indeed in deep water. It seemed that he couldn't do anything to the other party. He had already lost three fingers and his son was missing. If he continued to pursue the case, the gain would outweigh the loss. Fortunately, in name
It was Chi Yuan and Wei Jinxian who were guarding the White Turban Bandits. The Chen family's blow to them shouldn't be too serious. Besides, if they wanted to run the Jiangling Mansion, they were still the most suitable candidates. Just as they were about to go back and make long-term plans, someone suddenly came over.
Someone shouted outside the door: "Master Chen, Mr. Chen has been found! Mr. Chen has been found!"
Chen Yan hurriedly ran out the door and asked repeatedly: "Where is the person? Where is the person?" He was still uneasy, fearing that something would happen to Chen Qi.
I saw a police officer running quickly into the courtyard of the hospital and said to Chen: "Mr. Chen, the young master is not seriously injured. He has been sent to your office to recuperate. It was because someone tapped his acupuncture points and stuffed socks in his mouth. He was thrown in
I stayed on the big willow tree by the lake across from the Yamen for more than an hour. Finally, the young master opened his acupuncture points, pulled out his socks, and shouted out. He was rescued by the little man who was patrolling the shore. The young master said that his whole body was just sore and there was nothing wrong with it.
Other injuries.”
Chen Yan was certain in his mind. Just when he was about to turn around and walk back to the magistrate's living room, he stopped again and said to himself: "People who commit crimes usually don't carry a sock with them." He raised his head and asked the policeman again, "Then
Do you still have your socks?"
The policeman was already sweating profusely from running. In fact, he could ask someone else to report it, but how could he let others share this great achievement? So after rescuing Chen Qi, he first thought about sending him to the Tongzhi Office. When he saw Chen Qi
Yan was not there. When he inquired about this place, he rushed over in a hurry. How could he care about the socks? When he thought of Chen Yan's ruthlessness, his hot sweat immediately turned into cold sweat and he replied: "Master Chen, I'm just here."
Go and look under the tree again." After turning around and walking a few steps, he remembered something again and said to Chen, "Master Chen, the young master has no shoes or socks on one of his feet."
Chen Yan's face turned red and white, and he said angrily to the policeman: "Stop looking for her. Go back and watch Qi'er first."
Most of the people in the hall walked out. Zhang Qingrou covered her mouth and suppressed laughter. Wei Jinxian said: "Master Chen, Chen Qi's martial arts is not weak. Most of the people who restrained him are undoubtedly middle-aged people.
, As long as the person is okay, let’s go take a look.”
When Chen Yan heard that his son was fine, he felt reassured and gained a lot of confidence out of thin air. Instead, he did not rush to see his son. After returning to the living room, he asked Ji Sheng who was sitting and dozing off: "Ji Captou, these days
I haven't seen you anywhere in the day. You are usually a clean person. Why didn't you take care of yourself when I went to the prefect's house today? Can you tell me where you were just now?"
