Chapter 400: Don't be too polite
Yang Chen had already taken precautions, and when Xiang Zaitang waved his palm, he dodged away, and the chair behind him was burned to ashes by a burst of fire.
"General Yang is really skilled." Xiang Zaitang said with a smile.
"You already know my identity?" Yang Chen asked.
"If I don't even know this, what kind of city lord should I be?" Xiang Zaitang laughed and said, "What do you think of taking the place of Lord Wu?" ”
Yang Chen thought that he had covered it up very well, but he didn't expect that he already knew everything in the hall, so his intention to come here must be very clear in the hall.
"Since that's the case, then the city lord, I'll be blunt." Yang Chen said: "Yesterday, I caught a few black-clothed people who were catching children, and I knew some clues, which were related to the city lord's wife. ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Xiang Zaitang shouted: "Lao Xing." ”
The old butler walked up slowly, and he asked, "Master, what do you command?" ”
"This Yang Shaoxia suspects my wife's head, why don't you go and ask your wife to come up and confront this Yang Shaoxia face to face." Xiang Zaitang said.
The old butler suddenly glared at Yang Chen and said unhappily, "Young man, why do you doubt our lady? ”
Yang Chen smiled: "It's not that I suspect it, but there are some clues related to the city lord's wife." ”
"Joke, my wife, I've never been out of the house, how can I do something murderous?" The old butler shouted: "Young man, if you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being polite." ”
"This Steward Xing, who has been refusing to invite the city lord's wife for a long time, is he covering up something?" Yang Chen asked.
"Bold boy!" The old butler was furious, his body was like a ghost, and his whole body exuded bursts of fist strength, Yang Chen's hands rotated slightly, and he swung out a few sword marks, colliding with that fist, and the aftermath spread to the entire living room, so that those tables and chairs were all shattered.
As soon as Xiang Zaitang's right hand was raised, he rushed away the internal strength of the two, he pressed the old housekeeper's hands, and said: "Old Xing, Yang Shaoxia is my guest, he has this suspicion, and it is also for the children of Jizhou City, you can go and invite my wife to come up." ”
The old housekeeper was unwilling, but since Xiang Zaitang had spoken like this, he naturally didn't want to make another move, and when he was about to retreat, a woman's voice suddenly came from his ear.
"Xianggong!"
From the side hall came a young woman, with an oval face, delicate features, and a big belly.
"Madam" Xiang Zaitang hurriedly greeted him, he helped the woman, and said, "Madam, you have nothing to do in the room to rest, what are you doing here?" ”
"I heard a lot of movement in this living room, and I thought something was wrong, so I came out to see." The woman spoke, and her eyes fell on Yang Chen's body: "I don't know who this young man is?" ”
"Madame, let me introduce you." That Xiang Zaitang pointed at Yang Chen and said, "This young hero is Yang Chen, the general personally appointed by the emperor to defeat Dong'e this time. ”
Originally, Emperor Hongwu appointed Cao Jinhu to lead the team, but unfortunately Cao Jinhu lost his life when he encountered a villain plot on the way, but these are unknown to Xiang Zaitang.
Xiang Zaitang pointed to the woman again and said, "Yang Shaoxia, this is my wife." ”
The lady bowed slightly to Yang Chen: "I've seen General Yang." ”
The old housekeeper snorted on the side: "Our wife is pregnant with Liujia, what kind of kung fu do you have to go outside to do those murderous deeds?" ”
"Huh? Steward Xing, what did you say? The woman's face was full of astonishment.
"Madam, this guy actually said that Madame has something to do with the recent killing of children in Jizhou City." The old butler said dissatisfiedly: "It's just nonsense. ”
When the woman heard this, she was not angry, but she looked at Yang Chen and said: "Yang Shaoxia, the little woman is just an ordinary woman, she doesn't know anything about martial arts, and now she is pregnant, don't say that killing a child is a chicken, and I don't have the strength to slaughter it." ”
Yang Chen didn't care about these at all, he stared at the woman and said, "Dare to ask the city lord's wife, is the incense powder you rub on weekdays called pandan powder?" ”
"Not really." The woman said.
Huang Wen is already dead, Yang Chen has no way to distinguish the incense powder that this woman is rubbing, but his nose has grown up smelling in the women's pile since he was a child, and most of the forty-six girls are using different rouge gouaches, and Yang Chen can clearly identify these smells.
If the taste of the incense powder rubbed by the city lord's wife is different from the taste of the pandan powder, then it can mean that this pandan powder is not used by the city lord's wife.
"Since the city lord's wife said that it was not used, can you let me smell it?" Yang Chen said.
"Bold!" The old housekeeper was furious: "Young man, you suspect that our wife is a murderer, I can't stand it, and now you dare to shamelessly want to hear about our wife?" ”
"If you smell the knowledge, you won't get pregnant." Yang Chen felt that this old housekeeper was really troublesome, looking at this hall and the woman, the parties were not as excited as the old housekeeper.
"Haha, Yang Shaoxia's words are interesting." Xiang Zaitang said with a smile: "Since Yang Shaoxia is so persistent, then madam, you just let Yang Shaoxia smell it, he led the team to repel the Dong'e army, and now he cares about the people, this kind of person must not be a bad person." ”
The woman was also generous, and when she heard this sentence, she nodded and said, "Since the husband agrees, then I have nothing to refuse, Yang Shaoxia, you just come and smell it." ”
Yang Chen was stunned for a moment, Xiang Zaitang's forbearance skills were really unexpected by Yang Chen, he approached the city lord's wife, his eyes swept over the chest of the city lord's wife, and then smiled: "Madam, I'm done smelling." ”
The woman smiled: "I think Yang Shaoxia has finished reading, right?" ”
Yang Chen's old face couldn't help but turn red, and he said embarrassedly: "It seems that the city lord's wife has nothing to do with this matter, I am reckless, and I hope the city lord and the city lord's wife will not be surprised." ”
"How so?" Xiang Zaitang also said: "I also hope that the real murderer can be captured as soon as possible, and these people in Jizhou City will be given an explanation." ”
"Since it has been proved that this matter has nothing to do with the city lord's wife, then I will leave first." Yang Chen said.
"Yang Shaoxia, the old man will give you a ride." The old housekeeper didn't like this Yang Chen, if it weren't for Xiang Zaitang's face, he would have sent Yang Chen away a long time ago.
"It's fine." Yang Chen was led by the old housekeeper in front, he just stepped out of the living room with one foot, and said in the hall: "General Yang has come all the way from the capital to Jizhou City, why not stay in my house for a few days, so that I can do my best as a landlord." ”
"It's fine." Yang Chen retracted his foot and said with a smile, "What do you eat at noon?" Just get some chicken, duck and fish, don't be too polite. (To be continued.) )
