Chapter 41: The Robbers
"Is Childe in the study?"
"Brother Xiao Lu, you are back, Childe is waiting for you inside, hurry up and go in." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Wu Gui greeted him and urged: "You don't know that Childe has asked several times, I don't think you will come again, Childe will go to you in person." ”
Xiao Lu, who was sent out to inquire about the news, nodded, tidied up his clothes, and knocked on the study door.
"Come in. ”
Xiao Lu, who pushed the door in, saw Wu Jingchen sitting on the desk and chair with a book in one hand flipping through it, and shook his mind slightly, the secret boy is really a beautiful boy who is as warm as jade, and the jade tree is in the wind.
Wu Jingchen in the room was not so much reading a book as a fugue, staying in the study for a day without reading a word, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"What's going on over there at Liu?"
"Back to Gongzi, the chief catcher has already led people to surround the Liu family. Xiao Lu replied.
The hand who flipped through the pages of the book subconsciously paused, frowned slightly, and returned to his calm and breezy appearance for a moment.
Childe, is this worried?
If it weren't for following Childe's side for more than ten years, Xiao Lu would still think that he was wrong.
"Childe is not at ease?"
Xiao Lu didn't understand that the son, who had never cared about the Liu family, seemed to be very nervous in the past few days, as if he was worried that his beloved things had been stolen.
Wu Jingchen pulled the corners of her mouth with a wry smile. How could he rest assured that the father-in-law from the palace had not left yet, and if she was discovered, then he would never see her again.
Thinking that Liu Rong was sent to the palace and he would never see him again, Wu Jingchen couldn't sit still.
Teng got up and strode towards the door.
"Beima, if your mother comes, you can tell her that my son has something to do, so don't worry. The latter sentence was said to Xiao Lu.
"Yes. Xiao Lu was slightly surprised, and didn't ask why he didn't let him follow.
In Liu's house, at this time, the lights were bright everywhere, crying and shouting, and Master Liu and Mrs. Liu looked at the officers and soldiers who came to search for them with ugly faces.
"Master, are they really here to hunt down the criminals? But the concubine sees that they are here to rob. ”
Mrs. Liu watched angrily as those officers and soldiers took possession of the Liu family's precious antique jewelry on trumped-up charges.
"Madam, the official family has two mouths, we can't fight, you should break the fortune and eliminate the disaster. Master Liu's face was gloomy and he looked at the officers and soldiers, and the big hands hidden in the cuffs were bruised.
"But we can't let them do that, oh no, my water lily celadon, stop. Mrs. Liu's eyes darkened, and she watched in distress as her beloved vase was broken.
Master Liu hurriedly supported her body, and the anger in his heart couldn't be suppressed.
Turning his head to the chief catcher who had been standing in the courtyard, he said angrily: "Chief catcher, you are reasonably searching for robber fugitives, but secretly looting my Liu family's property, is this also the order of the county magistrate." ”
Master Liu barely pointed at his nose and scolded them for being robbers in the green forest.
The head catcher's face sank, his small eyes glared coldly at Master Liu, but he smiled nonchalantly: "Master Liu, is this questioning the order of the county magistrate? looting the property of the Liu family, why didn't I see it." ”
The person who opened his eyes and said nonsense, Master Liu saw it, and his angry chest went up and down, and he silently sent a sentence of 'shameless' in his heart.
Seeing Mrs. Liu holding the water lily celadon fragments distressedly, the head catcher said with a smile: "It turns out that Master Liu is distressed about this bottle, that's really sorry, there are some rough hands under the head catcher, and there is no serious man, and I hope that Master Liu will not mind, and this head catcher apologizes to Mrs. Liu on their behalf." ”
said that he was apologizing, but he didn't have the sincerity to apologize.
Old Man Liu was angry, but he could only swallow this breath silently.
Can he still be honest with these officials, I'm afraid that it will be their Liu family who will be unlucky in the end.
"Madam Ruan is tired, you send her back to the room. Master Liu glared at the chief catcher angrily, pressed his heart, and ordered.
・・・・・・
The chief catcher didn't care, but his subordinates said dissatisfiedly: "Bah, lowly businessman, you dare to stare at our chief catcher, this official can afford you if he takes a little bit of your things, always catch the head, do you want to teach him a lesson." ”
"Okay, this time we are searching for criminals, and they will swallow their anger. Don't make trouble for Ben, and you should also pay attention to proportion, if Master Liu can become the richest man in Wenxian County, it is also a bit backstage, don't make things bigger, even adults won't be able to protect you at that time. ”
"Yes. ”
With the order of the chief catcher, those officers and soldiers finally relented a little.
"The head catcher, no prisoners have been found here. ”
"Back to the head arrester, there is no prisoner found here. ”
"Back to the head catcher, I didn't find it here. ”
The team sent to search came back one by one to reply.
The chief catcher's face sank, and he said coldly: "Have you searched all the places?"
"There is still a place to go back to the head catcher. An officer and soldier pointed in the direction of the Feather Pavilion and said.
Master Liu's face was ugly, and he endured his anger and said: "Chief catcher, there is the little girl's boudoir over there, and I can guarantee that there will never be a so-called prisoner hiding there." Please always keep your head in the face of Lord Wu and don't let your subordinates in. ”
brought out the marriage with the Wu family, hoping to dispel the chief catcher and arrest, but unfortunately the chief catcher did not eat this set at all.
The marriage between Wu Zhixian and the Liu family, the chief catcher knew about it, and he was a little worried, but he still didn't stop the search.
"This head hunter was ordered by several adults to search, and I think Lord Wu will understand the difficulties of his subordinates. If there is anything offended, the head of this catcher will ask him for guilt and come to search. ”
After speaking, he stepped over to Master Liu's side and walked straight towards Yu Pavilion.
As soon as Liu Rong, Xiao Lu, and Qi Xun exchanged words, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, and the three of them glanced at each other.
Midori understood and hurriedly retreated to the door.
"Hey, who are you, my girl is still sick, and you are so noisy that the girl is resting, sir. ”
Xiao Lu came to stop the officers and soldiers from entering the door with both hands, glared at the visitor with a pretty face, and when he saw Master Liu, he called out aggrievedly.
Master Liu looked at Liu Rong's boudoir worriedly and sighed helplessly.
What should have come is still coming.
With such a big movement, all the people in the Yu Pavilion trembled with fright, and all of them looked at Master Liu.
"All of you gather here, little green, you go in and serve the girl, and tell her that she is all right. ”
Instead of telling Liu Rong that there is nothing to do, it is better to comfort Master Liu himself.
Xiao Lu bowed and said, "Yes." ”
In the end, the chief catcher still had some scruples, and did not rashly send his subordinates in, but entered the house with Master Liu and a small official.
Liu Rong, who was sitting on the bed, looked at the people who came in calmly through the screen, as if the chaotic cries outside did not affect her at all.
Stepping into the room, he caught a glimpse of the screen blocking the bed, his brows furrowed slightly, and his serious face flashed a hint of mockery.
At this moment, there was a shouting from the official outside: "You, what are you doing sneakily?"
Liu Rong and Xiao Lu in the screen panicked when they saw the person he was caught.
The head catcher looked back at the figure of the woman on the bed on the other side of the screen in confusion, and the tense atmosphere filled the room.
