Chapter Twenty-Three: Angry Tong Huan

At this moment, in the City Lord's Mansion of Qinggui City, in a luxurious hall, a man in a wide robe was lying on a chair with his eyes closed. This man is Tong Huan, who captured Butong.

There were more than a dozen maids around him, some beating his legs, some pinching his feet, some rubbing his shoulders, and some peeling off fruits one by one to feed him. It's a great pleasure to do that.

Suddenly, Tong Huan suddenly sat up and shouted angrily, "What's the matter? Why hasn't Ji Rui brought Miss Tong to me yet?"

The sound frightened all the maids on the side to their knees, trembling and not daring to look up.

"Little master, why don't I bring someone to urge you again?" said a maid.

"Urging, urging, urging everything, it's been urged three times. No, I'm going to go there myself this time. Tong Huan stood up angrily, and then said, "Change my clothes." ”

Tong Huan was only wearing such a loose robe at the moment. He was going to walk around the house now, so naturally it was impossible for him to wear this clothes. Although he was arrogant, he didn't dare to break the rules of the house.

Not long after, Tong Huan got dressed under the service of the maid.

"Wu Qing and Xia Fang come along, and the others will stay here. Tong Huan said as he walked towards the door.

"Yes!" replied the maids.

Tong Huan took Wu Qing and Xia Fang out of his room, and walked all the way to the room where Butong was just now.

On the way, they met a pair of guards, and they saluted Tong Huan respectfully. Naturally, Tong Huan ignored it at all and continued to walk towards the destination.

At this time, a young man who was also dressed gorgeously blocked Tong Huan's way.

"It turned out to be the fourth brother, it's so late, I don't know where you're going?" the man said with a light smile.

"Tong Xi, you come over for me and don't get in my way. Tong Huan said impatiently.

"Fourth brother, why is there such a big fire today? Say it and let my brother solve it for you. Tong Xi didn't mean to get out of the way.

"Tong Xi, you'd better figure out your identity, it's not my brother who is not surnamed Tong. Tong Huan said very unhappily.

Hearing Tong Huan say this, a haze rose in Tong Xi's heart. He knew whether he was the illegitimate son of the lord of the city, or whether he was born to a maid. Therefore, no one in the entire City Lord's Mansion looked down on him, and no one ever respected him. didn't let him live on the streets, it was already benevolent and righteous.

It's just that no one knows that Tong Xi has a great ambition in his heart, he wants to succeed his father and become the city lord of Qinggui City, so that no one will dare to disrespect him, and the humiliation he suffered before can be taken back one by one.

And he has a great chance. The current city lord Tong Yao has only two sons. It's Tong Xi and Tong Huan. At the beginning, Tong Xi also had a big brother, but his eldest brother was captured and made a slave.

Originally, Tong Xi would also be arrested as a slave, but when he was young, he was greedy for fun and "accidentally" cut off the little finger of his left hand. In this way, he lost his value as a slave and escaped.

In this way, only Tong Xi and Tong Huan can inherit the position of the city lord. But Tong Huan is a gentleman, he doesn't learn all day long, and it is impossible to be the city lord.

As for whether Tong Xi will have a younger brother in the future, he is even less worried. Because Tong Huan's mother, that is, the original partner of the city lord, died in childbirth when she gave birth to Tong Huan, and Tong Yao never married a wife again.

In fact, it was Tong Huan's early death that made Tong Yao very doted on Tong Huan, which made Tong Huan become what he is today.

Therefore, in Tong Xi's heart, the position of the future city lord must be his. It's just that now he can't show it. After all, he's just an illegitimate child who is nothing.

In fact, Tong Yao and Tong Lian also regarded Tong Xi as the successor of the future city lord. It's just that they still have a trace of luck in their hearts, hoping that Tong Huan can cheer up and reform himself.

Thinking about his own big plan, Tong Xi didn't pay too much attention to Tong Huan's words.

"Since the fourth brother is in a hurry, then I won't delay you. The fourth brother walked slowly. Tong Xi said with a smile. No one knows that Tong Xi actually looks down on Tong Huan at all in his heart.

"Hmph!" Tong Huan snorted coldly, and continued to walk towards the destination with Wu Qing and Xia Fang.

Looking at Tong Huan who was walking away, Tong Xi's smile cooled, "Hmph, Tong Huan, the insult you gave me, one day I will return it to you." ”

Of course, Tong Huan didn't know Tong Xi's thoughts, all he was thinking about at the moment was beauty.

Not long after, Tong Huan had already taken Wu Qing and Xia Fang to the room where Dang Qiantong was.

"My subordinates meet the little master. Seeing Tong Huan coming, Chen Hua immediately led the guards to kneel on one knee and salute.

"Get up. Tong Huan said casually.

"Young Master Xie. Chen Hua and the guards stood up.

"Where's Ji Rui?" asked Tong Huan, looking at the door of the room.

"Lady Ji is in the room. Chen Hua said truthfully.

"You keep watch, let's go in. With that, he took Wu Qing and Xia Fang towards the room.

Wu Qing and Xia Fang pushed open the door, and Tong Huan stepped in. Then the two closed the door again.

However, the moment Tong Huan came to the room, he was stunned. His five maids fainted to the ground in a daze, but there was no trace of Butong.

Tong Huan was instantly furious, "Chen Hua get in for me!"

Chen Hua, who was outside the door, heard Tong Huan's loud shout, and was immediately startled, "It's not good, could it be that something happened?" Thinking in his heart, Chen Hua quickly ran towards the room.

When Chen Hua pushed open the door and saw the five maids lying on the ground, he was stunned for a moment, "This, this ......"

"I don't care about the rest, I just ask you, what about Butong?" asked Tong Huanhuan.

"Little master, my subordinates don't know, my subordinates have been guarding around the room and haven't seen Miss Butong go out. Chen Hua could only answer like this.

"You didn't see her go out, can she still disappear for no reason?" Tong Huan yelled. He was so angry, he had waited so long for such a result. How do you keep him from getting angry?

"Young master, this, this is not right. Chen Hua said again at this time.

"Of course it's not right, people disappear for no reason, how can it be right?" Tong Huan still shouted loudly.

"Young master, I mean the maid here is wrong. Chen Hua said stubbornly.

"What's wrong with the maid?, is there still a problem with my maid?" Tong Huan was already gasping.

"Young master, I didn't mean that, I just saw that the maid Jinlu brought a maid out, there should be four maids here, but there is one more here. Chen Hua said.

Hearing Chen Hua say this, Tong Huan understood that there was something strange inside, only to see him suddenly come to Chen Hua, grab Chen Hua's collar and say, "Tell me quickly, what's going on." ”

Chen Hua said, "Young Master, that's the case, just now Lord Ji came here with Jin Lu's maid and entered the room. Later, Jin Lu's maid brought a masked maid out and said that she would report to the young master, and no one has been in or out of this room since then. So I suspect that the masked maid brought out by Jin Lu's maid was pretended to be Miss Butong. ”

"Then why didn't you look good at that time?" Tong Huan said angrily.

"Young Master Jin Lu's maid said that the maid's face was scratched, and it was inconvenient to look at it. And when I saw that it was brought out by Jinlu's maid, I didn't suspect it, so I thought they left. Chen Hua said tremblingly.

"Waste, waste!" Tong Huan slapped Chen Hua in the face, but Chen Hua Chen Hua didn't have anything to do, but he frowned and shook his hands. was obviously hurt by Chen Hua.

"Jin Lu dared to betray me. But do you think you can escape from this room? You can't get out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion at all. Tong Huan said gloomily, and then Tong Huan began to give orders, "Find me, they must be in the City Lord's Mansion, even if the City Lord's Mansion is overturned, they must be found." ”

"Yes, young master. Chen Hua hurriedly took the order and left.

"Take your maids with you. Tong Huan ordered Wu Qing and Xia Fang.

"Yes!" the two of them replied and left the room together.

So only Tong Huan and the five maids who fell to the ground were left in the room.
