Chapter 0251 - The Secret Door in the Backyard
With a sneer, the two guys stepped forward and grabbed Hongcui. At this time, Zhang Jixian stepped forward, pulled Hongcui behind him, and reprimanded: "You are making false accusations, and the crime of falsely accusing them is increased by one degree." I think any of you dare to move? ”
This roar made the two guys look at each other, or they were shocked by Zhang Jixian's might, and they stopped moving. Chen Lan's nose was so angry that he smoking, slapped the table with his right hand, and scolded loudly: "You idiots, you don't even listen to your master's words? Which green onion is he, and you will believe whatever he says? My eldest brother is a general in the yellow vest, can't he even do this thing? ”
Listening to what Chen Luan said, the two guys suddenly figured it out, no matter what they do, there is always the old club to bear it. I don't know who this guy is in front of me, or if it's a gangster who came out of the street, what's going on with him?
The two guys were about to move, and they were about to step forward to catch Hongcui again. Zhang Jixian waved his hand and slapped a small guy, only scolding him for being rude. The guy in the back was annoyed, and took advantage of his inattention to throw Zhang Jixian to the ground. Zhang Jixian was about to break up, but he was pressed to the ground by several guys who came up, punched and kicked. Seeing that the situation was not good, Hongcui picked up the corner broom and waved it horizontally. The man saw that the broom was so sharp that he had to dodge to the side.
The two sides were at an impasse. Hongcui crossed in front of Zhang Jixian, holding the broom in both hands, and scolded in her mouth: "Come here if you have a kind, the girl will let you see the world's first stunt today - the dog stick!" ”
Zhang Jixian got up from the ground, his hands and face were bruised. Hongcui turned her head to look at him, leaned closer to him, and whispered, "A big man, you can't fight!" ”
Zhang Jixian replied: "Jixian is a civil servant. Not a general! This kind of scoundrel-like behavior, Jixian disdains it. ”
Hongcui let out a snort from her nose and asked, "Then you say." What now? ”
Zhang Jixian was about to answer, when the two guys surrounding them fell to the ground. Then, there were guys on the side and in front of him who fell to the ground. In a moment, the men surrounding them were all lying on the ground, oops, oops, oops Hongcui was dumbfounded, threw down the broom, turned her head to look at Zhang Jixian and asked, "You, do you know how to demons?" Why don't you say a word to me? I picked up a broom for a long time. ”
Zhang Jixian's expression also seemed to be surprised. He stared at the qiē in front of him in a daze, and didn't say a word.
A volley of voices rang out, and then. A man was hung upside down from the beam, still holding a large handful of dice in his hand. Hongcui looked at him with a crooked face, and it turned out to be a butterfly. Butterfly smiled at Hongcui, rolled over and jumped off the beam. Throw the dice on the ground. said: "Miss Hongcui, how did you practice the trick of "Thousand Hands Flying Dice"? Behold, they all fell to the ground. ”
Hongcui pursed her small mouth, raised her eyebrows, and said, "What is this?" If the dark incense is there, it will be much more powerful than this. ”
Butterflies were annoyed, so she stomped her feet and said, "What are you mentioning him for?" He doesn't like you again. ”
Hongcui was about to say a few more words, but Zhang Jixian stepped forward and stopped, saying, "This is not the time to gossip. Have all of us arrived? ”
Randie replied: "Randie took your slip and went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to see Lan Yushi." He took people with him non-stop. Randie was worried about the red green girl, so she rushed here first, just afraid that they would be outside the door at this moment. ”
Zhang Jixian nodded and said yes. He was dressed neatly, stood up straight, and said loudly: "Everyone in this room has listened, I am Zhang Jixian, the left deputy envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and I am here today to check whether there is any suspicion of gambling." You have all seen it clearly just now, your incriminating evidence is conclusive, and you can't escape if you want to. Outside, my people have surrounded this place, and all of them can't get out of the place. Those who know each other honestly kneel on the ground, and the official will reduce the punishment as appropriate; Those who flee are caught and recaptured, and the crime is increased by the third degree. ”
At first, the people in the room were still a little dizzy, and they didn't know if what he said was true or not, but at this time, the scolding of officers and soldiers faintly came from outside, and everyone knew that it was true. First someone knelt on the ground with a pop, then a few people also knelt on the ground, and finally, everyone knelt on the ground.
There was a rush of footsteps, Lan Yushi came in from outside with a few officials, his eyes glanced at Zhang Jixian, and he hurriedly rushed over, and said, "Lord Zhang!" Jianzhang was ordered to borrow a hundred yacha from the inspection of the five cities, and surrounded this place on all sides, just waiting for Lord Zhang's orders! ”
Zhang Jixian shouted hello, suddenly thought of Chen Lan, and hurriedly looked back, Chen Lan didn't know where to go. Zhang Jixian was anxious, so he called the dealer who filled the water over and asked, "Where did Chen Lan go?" ”
The dealer knelt on the ground, bowed his head, and completely lost the arrogance he had just hauled. He replied respectfully: "If you go back to the adult, the little one doesn't know where Chen Xiaoye went?" ”
Zhang Jixian hated his behavior just now, slapped him over, and scolded: "Let your mother-'s bullshit!" Don't say you want to look good! ”
The dealer was slapped hard, and he didn't dare to say anything, he still knelt on the ground upright, and replied: "If you go back to the adult, the little one really doesn't know where Chen Lan went." At this time, he even omitted the word "master".
Zhang Jixian was still about to move hard, Hongcui twisted his waist, opened his hand to slap his right face again, and suddenly wanted to stop hurting his hand. So, he waved his right hand in the air and said to Zhang Jixian: "What nonsense are you talking to him?" Hongcui saw that there was an iron tong in the corner of the house, which was used to pry his mouth. ”
Zhang Jixian is a civil servant after all, but he will not torture indiscriminately, and his face shows hesitation. Hongcui smiled and said to Lan Jianzhang: "Lan Yushi, can you help Miss Hongcui get it?" ”
Lan Jianzhang was embarrassed to refuse, and saw that Zhang Jixian did not stop him, so he went to the corner of the house to find the iron tongs. Hongcui took a closer look, frowned and pouted, as if thinking about how to use the pliers.
The dealer just saw Hongcui's mess, and knew that this aunt was not a good stubble, if she really poked a hole in her mouth, it would be called a broken phase. Can't wait for Hongcui to ask, he hurriedly said: "If you go back to the adults, they are only afraid of escaping to the backyard." There is a secret door in the backyard, and no one usually comes and goes. Sometimes Chen Ling would call a girl in, afraid that the grandmother would know, so she would go in and out from there. ”
Zhang Jixian said: "You take us there!" ”
Hongcui sighed, twisted to the chair next to her and sat down, and said, "Go ahead, Hongcui can't walk on her feet, so she is lazy." ”
Lan Jianzhang threw the pliers into the corner and said to a few yacha behind him: "Let's go, follow Master Zhang to arrest the shopkeeper who opened the gamble." ”
The yacha shouted yes in unison, followed behind the two people, and hurriedly chased after the backyard.
It turned out that Chen Ling wanted to frame Hongcui and then detain him for a period of time. At that time, Zhang Jixian revealed his identity, and he heard the sound of footsteps outside, knowing that things were not good, and when the gamblers were coaxing, he quietly slipped out of the hall and walked towards the secret door in the backyard.
He was walking away lightly, not wanting to be suddenly hit on the shoulder, and asked, "Where are you kid?" ”
Chen Lan was startled, turned around and opened his eyes, and saw that it was his father Chen Kairen. Lai Jin hugged Chen Kairen, but he was panting, and he must have slipped out of the hall.
Chen Lan bowed and replied, "My son was about to tell his father, the official family came, and my father walked away as soon as possible." ”
Chen Kairen asked: "If you don't say it, I also know that this courtyard is surrounded on all sides, so I'm afraid I can't go?" ”
Chen Lan still bowed down and replied: "I have thought of this before, so I deliberately installed a secret door in the backyard, except for one or two guys, no one else knows." The matter is urgent, and the father comes with the son. ”
At this time, as long as Chen Kairen could escape from here, he didn't care about asking anything else, and urged Chen Kairen to leave quickly. Chen Lan walked forward quickly, walked the path, walked through the pavilion, and after a while, he came to a place on the west side of the backyard. The trees are lush and the walls are covered with ivy. Chen Lan walked here, touching the wall left and right with his hand, and suddenly, he stopped somewhere, exerted his right hand, and inserted it in, only to see a moving door squeak open.
Seeing that there was indeed a secret door, Chen Kairen was very happy in his heart, and was about to let Lai Jin help him out, but he heard the sound of hurried footsteps in his ears, and someone shouted: "Stop!" ”
The three of them looked behind at the same time, and several yacha were only a zhang away, and in a moment, they were here. Chen Kairen pushed Lai Jin away, threw away the dragon head crutch, and said: "Xiao Jin, I treat you well, once you go in, the master will definitely save you." "With that, I ran out first.
Chen Xuan flashed out immediately after him, and quickly locked the secret door again from the outside. It turned out that Chen Lan was scheming, he spent all his efforts to design the secret door, and he was afraid that people would know the mechanism, so there was another mystery before and after the secret door, locking the secret door from the inside, and the outside could not be opened, and the secret door was locked from the outside, and the inside could not be opened. At this time, he locked the secret door outside, but locked Lai Jin and the yacha inside.
Seeing that the secret door was locked, Lai Jin was really panicked, he groped for the mechanism up and down, left and right, and pressed hard, but he couldn't open the secret door. At this time, the yacha had already pounced and pressed Lai Jin against the wall.
Zhang Jixian and Lan Jianzhang arrived later, and when they saw that only one Lai Jin was caught, and two masters ran away, they couldn't help but be a little stupid. But if they catch thieves and stolen goods, they can't catch them, and they can't do anything about the Chen family's father and son. Now they can only play the emperor, saying that even if the Chen family gathers to gamble, see what the emperor does.
In the end, the result was the same as Gege expected, Qianlong saw Zhang Jixian and Lan Jianzhang's excerpts, and did not approve a word, but sent the original folds to Chen Yong, who was working hard in Sichuan. The emperor's meaning couldn't be clearer: someone has played your Chen family, and the emperor sees that you have made great contributions to serve the court, and if you don't pursue it, you can stop it.
Not to mention how the Chen family dealt with it themselves, only that Hongcui was very angry when she saw this matter end like this. How was she humiliated in the Chen family at the beginning, and now, it's over? The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and she couldn't stand this breath after all, so she had to solve it alone. This person was none other than the pawnshop guy who was going to enter the firewood room at that time and wanted to do something wrong to her. (To be continued......)
