Chapter IX: Weapon Fighting Cases (2)
Zhou Mu was slapped hard by Zhou Yuan before he woke up, staggering and unable to even walk steadily, and his mouth was full of the smell of wine.
Zhou Mu, who was overwhelmed, went to the flower building in the city to drink all day long, and the money used was all withdrawn from the account office of the Mei Mansion.
Mei Xiaohan had known about this for a long time, but she didn't say it. In this matter, Zhou Mu molested the women of good families in public, which made Zhou Yuan lose face.
Seeing Zhao Hu, Zhou Yuan arched his hand and said: "Brother Zhao, my relative doesn't understand the rules and offended you, and I hope you don't bother with him!" ”
Zhou Yuan said to the two maidservants: "Invite this girl to the side room to rest!" ”
Zhou Yuan pointed at Zhou Mu and wanted to scold, closed his mouth again, sighed, shook his head and left.
Before coming to Mei Xiaohan's room, Zhou Yuan told Mei Xiaohan about the scene he had just made, and said, "This matter is all because I, Zhou Yuan, have no way to discipline him!" Please punish Mei in charge! ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "It's really eventful! ”
The matter of the weapon fight has not yet been clarified, and such a thing has happened, which makes Mei Xiaohan a little uneasy.
After detailed investigation and inquiry, it was learned that the weapon fight that occurred last night was indeed caused by the battle for the position of the patriarch.
Among the people involved in the weapon fight, there is also the power of the government of the city government of Splendid City, which can be described as very complicated, and the government will know about it immediately after the weapon fight. Overnight, troops were sent to arrest all 116 people involved in and related to the fighting.
Among them, there are also some innocent people who are onlookers who have been arrested!
Zhou Yuandao: "Fortunately, I didn't go to the scene last night, otherwise I would have been imprisoned!" ”
Mei Xiaohan said, "How is the woman's now?" ”
Zhou Yuan slapped his head and said, "I'll call her here, no!" That's please... Bring her in! ”
Mei Xiaohan shook her head and said, "I think this matter is quite strange! There was such a big fight last night, and today someone suddenly ran to Meifu..."
Zhou Yuan frowned and said, "Could it be that Mei is in charge of the family, and this person is not good!" ”
"It's... I'm afraid not! ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "So many things have happened, I can't tell the difference between truth and falsehood!" ”
Zhou Yuan said: "I'll find out about this matter!" ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "That woman can't let her go!" ”
"Understood! Got it! ”
"By the way, Steward Zhou shouldn't come forward in person for this matter, you can find another person to investigate! One thing to look for! ”
Zhou Yuandao: "Still, Mei Dangjia is thoughtful!" ”
"The family named Zhou Mu, tell him to go! In the future, I will never step into the Mei Mansion again! ”
Zhou Yuandao: "Yes, I understand!" ”
After Zhou Yuan left, Mei Xiaohan called Zhao Hu again and said, "What do you think of what happened last night?" ”
"Isn't the investigation clear? What a fight for the position of patriarch! ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "Do you really think so? Just a fight for the position of patriarch? ”
Zhao Hu shook his head and said, "I don't know!" No... No... I do not know! ”
Mei Xiaohan couldn't believe that for the position of a patriarch, so many people would participate in the fight.
Zhou Yuan found a person named Xia Xinzhe, who has great powers, walks in black and white, and knows very well about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, especially for Splendid City.
This person does not ask the name of the owner, only talks about the price, and does not ask much else. There are not many people who have seen him on the rivers and lakes, and most of them have only heard of his name, but have not seen his true face.
"This person really has such great magical powers?"
Zhou Yuandao: "I've only heard of it, and I haven't really had any contact with him." ”
This person came to Mei Xiaohan in front of him masked and said, "Three hundred taels of silver, I will help you find out about the weapon fight incident that happened in Yuelong Village last night, and five hundred taels of silver will help you find out the true identity of the woman and the purpose of her coming to Meifu alone!" ”
Mei Xiaohan smiled and said: "Three hundred taels of silver to find out the weapon fighting incident is not expensive, five hundred taels of silver to find out the true identity of the woman and her purpose is a bit outrageous." ”
Xia Xinzhe said: "Since the master thinks so, I will leave, you should invite another master!" ”
Xia Xinzhe turned around and left, and disappeared in an instant.
Mei Xiaohan said: "I don't believe it, I can't investigate without you!" ”
Mei Xiaohan came to the room where the woman lived and said, "I heard that the girl is looking for me!" ”
The woman said, "You are Mei Xiaohan, Mei Gongzi?" ”
"Not bad! I'm Mei Xiaohan! ”
The woman said: "I didn't expect that Mei Gongzi was so young!" ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "I have never seen a girl before, and the girl is not from Yuelong Village, right?" ”
The woman said, "Not bad! I'm not from Yuelong Village. ”
"Why did you come to me?"
The woman smiled: "It's nothing, I heard that Mei Gongzi is a good person, so he came to take refuge before!" ”
"I'm not a charity here, and if everybody comes to me, I'll be poor sooner or later!"
Liu Yingying said: "I don't understand what Mei Gongzi means by charity? ”
Mei Xiaohan said tentatively: "How much silver do you want?" Take the money and go. ”
The woman turned around and closed the door, and suddenly became very charming, and while taking off the tulle she was wearing, she said: "Mei Gongzi, there are only you and me here, even if Mei Gongzi does something, no one knows!" ”
Liu Yingying let out a breath from her mouth, and her fingers circled Mei Xiaohan's head, Mei Xiaohan felt dizzy and fainted.
When Mei Xiaohan woke up, he found that he was already asleep on the bed, and Liu Yingying was sleeping next to him.
"Damn it!"
Mei Xiaohan wanted to have a seizure, but Liu Yingying opened her mouth first: "If you sleep with someone, you still have a temper!" ”
Mei Xiaohan put on her clothes and left, and Liu Yingying said in a soft voice: "Young Master Mei, don't forget the promise you made to me last night!" ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "I have never made any promises with you, how can you talk nonsense?" ”
Mei Xiaohan opened the door and walked out, but found that there were already many servants and servants standing outside the door, and said angrily for a while: "Look at what! Get out of here! ”
In the laughter of all the family members and servants, Mei Xiaohan walked out of the room, which made Mei Xiaohan feel embarrassed. So he ordered to restrict Liu Yingying's freedom, and sent people to guard it day and night, ordering her not to leave the Mei Mansion!
At this moment, Mei Xiaohan's whole mind was the sentence that Liu Yingying said: "Mei Gongzi, don't forget the promise he made to me last night!" ”
"Promise?"
"What exactly is the promise?"
Mei Xiaohan thought as she walked, Zhao Hu saw Mei Xiaohan frowning, and said, "What's the trouble with Mei Dang's family?" Can you tell me about it? ”
Mei Xiaohan said: "My mind is full of messes now, and I can't figure it out!" ”
"Could it be the woman's business?"
Mei Xiaohan said: "It is indeed the woman's business!" This person's identity is really weird! ”
Zhao Hu said: "Is what happened last night true?" ”
Mei Xiaohan shook her head and said, "I don't know myself, what I did last night, how to answer you!" ”
