Chapter 30 Four-way Support
Li Chu always felt that today's mansion was unusually quiet, different from the quiet of the past, every air exuded a strong murderous aura, and Nangong Fei behind him obviously sensed that something was wrong, and they all walked cautiously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Sister! Look, Uncle Chen! Le Xi suddenly shouted, and then pointed to the hall not far away.
Several people were startled and hurriedly stepped forward to look, only to see Uncle Chen lying in the hall, and there was blood everywhere on his usually neat robe. Several maidservants suddenly rushed out, and the most clever Ling'er said to Li Chu with tears in her eyes: "Son, you can be regarded as back, and the slaves and maids almost can't see Childe." ”
"What's going on?" Li Chu cared about Uncle Chen, and walked to Uncle Chen without waiting for them to answer, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief after taking a pulse for him, "Uncle Chen...... Uncle Chen......"
"Just now, a group of black-clothed people with knives rushed into the house, and they couldn't help but say that they would cut when they met someone, Zhu Zi They look very powerful on weekdays, but they are so useless when they really encounter something." Ling'er said, her eyes were red again, she wiped her tears and said, "Then another group of people came, and without saying a word, they cut it when they saw the man in black, and the two groups of people left the house after fighting." ”
Li Chu glanced around and asked, "When did the people leave?" What about the rest of the house? What about the dead and wounded? ”
"Not long after they left, the incident happened suddenly, and the casualties in the courtyard of Childe were the most serious, and now everyone is gathered there. Uncle Chen didn't know when he fainted, and we didn't pay attention, so we ......"
Hearing this, Li Chu glanced at Jin Yuan and asked, "Didn't they break in through the gate?" How did you get to my hospital? Are you thinking about it, did they say anything else? ”
Ling'er shook her head, indicating that she couldn't remember, but Zhu Ting on the side had a flash of inspiration and said: "I remember, at that time, I was hiding behind the rockery, and I heard them say that they were here to find something, or did they say that they were looking for someone?" I don't quite understand it, but that's pretty much what it means. ”
This is impossible, Li Chu was half puzzled and half surprised in his heart, if he said that he was here to find something, then it shouldn't be, what is there in the whole mansion that is worthy of someone to waste so much effort to find it? I'm afraid that they came to find someone, and they came straight to their own yard, obviously knowing the situation in the yard, Jin Yuan, Feng Jiu and Ding Shi brothers......
"Young master......" Uncle Chen suddenly woke up, his old eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he looked very painful, Li Chu hurriedly held his hand and said, "Uncle Chen, don't worry, I'm here." ”
"Ding Shi, you send Uncle Chen back to the room first, Xiao Mi, you go to find Dr. Xu, Xiao Fei, you go outside to see Zhu Zi and them." Li Chu glanced at Jin Yuan as he spoke, and said in a low voice, "You come with me." ”
Jin Yuan followed Li Chu into the study before he dared to ask, "Who could it be?" Seeking revenge? Looking at the Western Capital, I'm afraid that only the four princes dare to act so boldly, right? ”
"I'm not sure yet." Li Chu stopped the pen in his hand, looked at him fixedly, handed him the note in his hand and said, "Flying pigeon pass the book, let Zishan come." ”
The hand that received the note shook, Jin Yuan sighed, and said in a trembling voice: "Really called him here?" Then there will be no peace in the West. ”
Li Chu raised his eyes and glanced at him, Jin Yuan didn't say anything more, took out the only gray-haired pigeon from the birdcage, and reluctantly threw it out of the window, before looking back at Li Chu and said: "I just heard Ling'er say that another group of people rushed into the Li Mansion after that, isn't it the Cannibal Gang?" ”
"It seems that Zishan has already guessed that it is me, otherwise he would not have paid so much attention to the Rite Mansion." Li Chu's eyes flashed, and he couldn't tell whether he was relieved or uneasy in his eyes.
Jin Yuan was surprised: "Huh? He's also terrible, so he can ......."
"Childe! The people from the Criminal Department came. After the knock on the door, Ling'er's voice came in closely, and after a slight pause, he said, "Leader Li and General Wu are also here." ”
Jin Yuan chuckled, looked at Li Chu and said, "Hey, these people are very well-informed, and those legs seem to have grown four, and they came so quickly." ”
Li Chu glared at him, pressed him to the chair when he got up, and sighed: "You stay here for me, don't come out to make trouble, there is a book of war on the table, you can take a look at it by the way." ”
With a "Peng" sound, the door was ruthlessly closed by Li Chu, Jin Yuan showed a look of disappointment, and exclaimed again and again, but after Li Chu's footsteps disappeared, he jumped up.
After searching the entire study, he finally found the wrench that was put away by Li Chu in the brocade box, Jin Yuan found a thin rope, quietly tied it around his neck, and hid it behind his clothes, and then honestly took the art of war and looked at it.
When Li Chu walked to the hall, he was startled by the crowd in front of him, and secretly blamed Ling'er for not saying it carefully, where were only the two adults from the Criminal Department and Li Wu? That is, the seventeenth county lord alone brought more than 20 followers, which more or less added up to a total of more than 200 people crowded into this small hall and courtyard.
"The humble house is so small, I have wronged all the adults." As soon as Li Chu spoke, everyone's attention turned to him, and Wu Weizhong, who was worried, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You're not injured, are you?" The Criminal Department has just been liquidated, six have died, eleven have been injured, and the killer is recruiting people to not give people a way out. ”
"I'm fine, can I find out where the murderer came from? I can't die in vain. Li Chu nodded, signaling that he was okay, and then turned his head and threw the question to the criminal department.
A middle-aged man walked out of the crowd, glanced at Li Chu very flatteringly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Gongzi Lichu, we are investigating, but if there is a trace of clues, we will inform Gongzi, and we will definitely arrest the murderer to prove the law." ”
Li Chu's eyes sank, and he felt that this person was very disgusting, and Li Xun on the side hurriedly explained: "Oh, this is Yu Shilang of the Criminal Department, and the number of cases solved is unsurpassed in the West." ”
Hearing Li Xun say this, Li Chu glanced at Yu Shilang again, and was even more surprised to see that he had an unconcealable pride in his treacherous smile, such a treacherous person would be a master of judging cases like a god?
Suddenly, Li Xun said again: "The Lifu has been attacked by killers of unknown origin one after another, and the emperor has sent ministers to ask the son's opinion, whether he is willing to live in the palace to avoid trouble?" ”
Li Chu finally understood why Yu Shilang showed favor to him for no reason, it turned out that he heard that the emperor valued him, so he also wanted to please himself. Seeing that the guards present were all curiously and secretly looking at him, Li Xun also threw a glance at him from time to time, but Li Chu still replied with an unchanged face: "I don't want to." ”
Although Li Xun already knew his temper, he was still speechless by his three words, but the seventeenth county lord laughed and said: "Good for you, you dare to refute the face of the imperial brother, and see how the imperial brother will treat your crimes at that time." ”
Li Chu pointed to the entourage behind the seventeen county lords, and asked knowingly, "Then why did the county lord come this time?" The contemptible courtyard is small, but it can't accommodate so many retinues of the county lord, so let's take care of the safety of the county lord's mansion. ”
"The entourage of the county lord's mansion can't be wanted, then these palace soldiers sent by the emperor, you should stay, if something happens in the future, we won't be able to arrive so soon." Li Xun moved slightly, motioning for Li Chu to look at the rows of elite soldiers behind him.
Li Chu lowered his eyes and smiled, he knew that Li Xun had been respectful to him on the surface all these years, but in fact, he had long been unaccustomed to himself. Of course, he is also very self-aware, the main reason why Li Xun can't get used to him is that he is jealous of Li Jingyao treating him like a brother, and he is jealous that he can refute Li Jingyao's face without any scruples, but he can't and doesn't dare.
"Please go back, I'll find a way to protect my mansion, wouldn't it be funny if I relied on a large number of people to keep myself safe?" Li Chu ordered the eviction of customers, but it was quite imposing.
