After complaining for a long time in front of Xiao Chumo, Wei Tingyan suddenly looked back at the vast group of people behind him with resentful eyes, and his tone changed instantly, like a little resentful woman.

"Cousin, didn't you say you would wait for me to come back? Why did you finish the case so quickly? ”

Xiao Chumo had long been accustomed to his "emotional" appearance, and he was not affected in the slightest, and directly refuted his words: "But I also said it at the time, provided that you can come over in time." ”

"That's not because my dad ......"

Wei Tingyan hurriedly wanted to argue, but before he finished speaking, looking at Xiao Chumo's unsquinting appearance, he suddenly rolled his eyes and shifted the topic.

"Since I haven't been able to see the haunted mansion with my own eyes, then cousin, can you tell me what the hell is going on?"

Xiao Chumo has experienced his annoyance many times. In addition, Lin Wei couldn't ride a horse, and the speed of the carriage slowed down the travel speed of the whole team a lot, and it was estimated that it would take at least two hours to return to Kyoto. So he directly agreed.

Wei Tingyan really stopped his mouth and obediently listened to Xiao Chumo's narration. Although he occasionally asks strange questions, it is always much better than when he usually chatters.

When he returned to Kyoto, Xiao Chumo asked Wei Tingyan to take some of the soldiers back to the barracks first. And he asked the rest of the people to escort the two men and Lin Wei directly into Kyoto from the city gate.

There were quite a few people in this team, and there were also soldiers and Xiao Chumo among them, and the surrounding people quickly noticed them.

"What's going on, why are there soldiers coming in here too?"

"Isn't that General Xiao? Who needs him to arrest himself? ”

"What did those two men do, why did one of them still have a cloak of hair?"

“……”

All kinds of discussions came into Xiao Chumo's ears from the crowd of onlookers, and Lin Wei in the carriage behind naturally heard it.

He originally thought that he couldn't cause the panic of these people, but when he opened the curtain, he saw that Xiao Chumo seemed to have expected this scene a long time ago, and called a soldier behind him over and said a few words.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you must have heard a little bit of the rumors of the haunted houses on the outskirts of the city recently. Do you know what the so-called female ghost is? ”

After receiving Xiao Chumo's instructions, the soldier ran to the side of the team and said loudly to the people who stopped to watch. It was precisely because of his words that the originally noisy environment gradually became much quieter.

Seeing this, the soldier continued: "The day before yesterday, the general was ordered to go to encircle and suppress the mountain bandits, and then went to the ghost house to check. Designed together with Lord Lin, who is in charge of investigating the case, and caught this so-called sneaky thing right. It's the two people who are escorted behind! ”

With a finger of his hand, everyone's eyes were on the two embarrassed men.

Although there were some doubts about the authenticity of these words, the man who was beaten up by Xiao Chumo was still pretending to be a female ghost before, and his loose clothes and loose hair became the most powerful evidence.

Thinking of their worries for the past few days, the people were naturally very angry in their hearts, and they all pointed at the two men and cursed fiercely.

Lin Wei, who was still worried about causing a riot, saw this, and while relieving his heart, he also understood Xiao Chumo's intentions.

Although the matter of the female ghost has been investigated clearly, the rumors that the little third brother let the little beggars spread before are still there, and they will not dissipate so quickly for a while. If something happens at this time, it will inevitably be another toss.

And Xiao Chumo obviously took this into account, so he simply explained this matter clearly when he returned to Kyoto. It just so happens that the city gate is the place where the most people come and go, and through these people, it is believed that the rumors of female ghosts will soon disappear.

Thinking of this, Lin Wei couldn't help but admire Xiao Chumo a little. Unexpectedly, this general is not only extremely brave on the battlefield, but also so meticulous in his thoughts.

Speaking of which, this matter was not Xiao Chumo's task originally. Therefore, after helping Lin Wei solve the rumors, he declined the latter's request to enter the palace together, and instead returned to his mansion first.

Yu Panxi, who received the news, waited at the gate of Xiao Mansion early in the morning, and glanced at the other side of the street from time to time.

Yinling followed behind her, looking at her master's non-stop appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "Madam, presumably the generals will be back soon, so don't keep looking over there." ”

"Just you poor girl."

Yu Panxi glared at her slightly, but there was no anger in her eyes.

Yinling also knew that she wasn't really angry, but she didn't say anything more, just stuck out her tongue, looking playful.

Just as the master and servant were joking, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and they were rushing towards this side.

Yu Panxi's expression froze, and he quickly turned his head to look. The familiar figure on horseback, who else could it be if it wasn't Xiao Chumo?

The latter saw his wife standing at the door waiting from a distance, and only felt that his heart was warm, and a strange feeling gradually rose. It's been a long time since his biological mother, Wei, died, and no one has wanted to stand at the door and wait for him to return.

When he turned over and dismounted, stopped in front of Yu Panxi, and looked at the faint worry on the latter's face, he was also a little unhappy in his heart.

He didn't expect to be delayed for so long at the abandoned mansion, and when he asked Wei Tingyan to escort the mountain bandits back yesterday morning, he didn't let him talk to Yu Panxi. The latter has been worried in vain for so long, and it is indeed that he has not thought it through.

"Didn't you say you'd come back yesterday, why did you only arrive now?"

Obviously, Yu Panxi, who was still full of worries, was a little disgusted after Xiao Chumo really stood in front of her.

But Xiao Chumo knew her temperament very well and knew that she was not complaining. Therefore, he changed his cold appearance in front of Lin Wei, went to hold Yu Panxi's hand, and coaxed her in a lower tone.

"Originally, I could have come back yesterday, but then I went to investigate the haunted mansion, so I was delayed a lot. Don't be angry, let's go in first. ”

With such a docile and easy-to-talk attitude, if Lin Wei, who was full of admiration, looked at it, he was afraid that his jaw might be shocked.

Yu Panxi wasn't angry, but he just didn't want to let him fool him around like this. Although he entered the mansion with him, his face was still displeased.

Seeing this, Yinling did not follow with him very interestingly. After the two entered the courtyard, they went to find Chulu.

"Is it all settled?"

Yu Panxi sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, his eyes deliberately not on Xiao Chumo's body. Although he opened his mouth to ask, his tone was not as gentle as before.

Xiao Chumo looked at her arrogant appearance and smiled a little helplessly, but in the end he still stepped forward and continued to speak softly.
