Chapter 122: Big Move
When the beauty left, Li Qian could only sigh in his heart, he really couldn't pull away at the moment.
However, for Lin Qiuyun, he has nothing to worry about, although it is night at this time, but the security of Hangzhou Fucheng has always been good, and there are special people patrolling back and forth tonight, so there will be no accidents.
But he didn't feel at ease when he thought about it, so he raised his sleeve and wiped the tea off his face, walked a few steps to the door, called a large teapot and said, "I'm sorry for you to go outside and give an order, let my entourage follow the girl and escort her back." ”
The big teapot was the one who led Liu Ruyan up just now, and when he saw that Li Qian's hair on his sideburns was a little scattered, how could he not guess what had just happened inside?
However, he did not dare to show anything on his face, only nodded in agreement, and walked quickly downstairs.
When Li Qian returned to the private room, Zhao Yuanwai had already shouted the price for the third time, and seeing that he had not increased the price for a long time, the guests in the hall were puzzled for a while.
Isn't it ------ Li Daguan to admit defeat?
If that's the case, it's too much of a disappointment. The thunder is heavy and the rain is small, don't prepare twenty or thirty thousand taels, are you embarrassed to fight with Zhao Zhengyi?
Seeing that Li Qian was slow to respond, the bustard's mother stood up and shouted at the window: "Li Gongzi, if you don't increase the price, the result will be decided------
Liu Ruyan also looked at the window, and couldn't help but sigh softly in her heart, after all, her fate still couldn't be changed------
"Who says I won't raise the price?"
Li Qian's voice sounded again, and the person had already appeared by the window, looking at the people downstairs and laughing: "Nine thousand taels want to come out on top?" Zhao Chengcheng is too underestimated, right? ”
As he spoke, he stretched out a finger, and just when everyone thought that he would shout out a high price of 10,000 taels, he suddenly turned around and left the window.
That's not all, just when everyone thought he would come back again, they saw that he had already appeared at the staircase on the side, and hurried straight downstairs. Immediately afterwards, there was a man and a little girl, who did not know when they went upstairs.
A steward's big teapot stepped forward and asked blankly, "Li Gongzi, what are you ------?"
"Get out of the way! Ben Gongzi doesn't have time to talk nonsense with you now! At this moment, Li Qian's heart was in a hurry, because just now, Xu Jie led the stupid girl who was arrested at night over and told him that the two Zijin sisters were missing------
As soon as everyone in the hall saw his tone, they realized something and talked about it.
"What's going on? What's going on? ”
"I don't know! Seeing that he was in a hurry, maybe there was something urgent at home? ”
"I think he is pretending!" Someone ridiculed: "To put it bluntly, it is estimated that there is not enough silver to give us such a ------."
Everyone is not a big deal to see the excitement, but Zhao Yuanwai is different, as soon as he saw that Li Qian was going to slip away, he leaned out of the window and said, "Li Qian!" You don't fight? Then I'll take this beauty for the time being------"
Li Qian paused, turned his head to look at Liu Ruyan on the high platform, his eyes were a little complicated.
Liu Ruyan was also looking at him, but the corners of his mouth forced a smile, and the smile was a little bitter.
For Li Qian, who has only met once, and even had an unpleasant encounter with her, she really has nothing to complain about. Li Qian can do this step for himself, it is enough, where does Liu Ruyan dare to ask for something?
It's just that there is also a loss in my heart, after all, this man had given himself hope before------
The two looked at each other for a moment, Li Qian shook his head and said, "I'll quit!" ”
Liu Ruyan's heart sank when she heard this, and she nodded imperceptibly, her eyes full of relief.
She understood the guilt in Li Qian's eyes, and also understood the helplessness in Li Qian's heart, and understood that the other party must have more important things to deal with at this moment, and she ------ to him, at best, he can only be regarded as a friend, maybe not even a friend.
After all, I can only accept my fate------
Li Qian glanced at her deeply again, and then kept rushing away from the door, disappearing at the gate like a gust of wind. The guests in the hall were stunned and speechless.
------
------
Standing outside the gate, Li Qian also felt a little dazed for a while. In the middle of the night, where can I find someone?
In fact, as early as the first time he learned the news, Xu Jie had already sent all the manpower to search for the traces of the two girls in the streets and alleys. But Li Qian knew that this was probably useless work, because it was impossible for the two good people to disappear out of thin air, and he didn't let anyone go back to pick them up.
The only explanation is that they were robbed by the gangsters. As for who that villain will be, do you need to think about it?
At this moment, Song Zhong quickly followed, grabbed Li Qian and asked angrily, "What's the matter?" You quit without asking for instructions, and you don't take me seriously? ”
"Get out of here!"
Li Qian pushed him away and said angrily: "Bastard! If it weren't for your, how could the two of them have been hijacked?!! I'm telling you, I'm not doing this errand! ”
Song Zhong made him scold a little stunned, this black cauldron is inevitably too inexplicable, right?
However, seeing that he was so emotional, Song Zhong could also guess that something must have happened, and immediately asked, "What's the matter?" Calm down and make your words clear------"
"Huh, calm down? I'm calm down! Li Qian's saliva sprayed his face, "You take someone inside first and get the one surnamed Zhao to me, and then I'll make it clear to you!" ”
“------”
Song Zhong had never seen Li Qian's angry side so bad, but from his words at the moment, he heard some information. Could it be that the Zhao family did something to him that made him so angry?
It is obviously impossible to take Zhao Liangchang.
Today's Jinyiwei does not have the power to legally arrest officials and civilians at all, that is, Song Zhong shows his identity in public, and the other party also has the right to resist arrest.
Xu Jie was almost stupid on the side, and said in his heart that Master Li was really angry, and he even dared to scold the Jinyi guards in public. It must be known that even if the Lord of Futai is standing here in person, he must be polite to this nominal subordinate, and be careful to offer it when a plague god comes to make offerings.
However, it doesn't matter how Li Qian is, the important thing is that he is present now, and he has the responsibility and obligation to explain it clearly to his boss. So, he respectfully hugged his fists and briefly told Song Zhong about the disappearance of the Li family's maid.
After listening to this, Song Zhong nodded slightly, then looked at Li Qian and said, "Don't worry, since they disappeared before the city ban, maybe they haven't left the city yet, so I will arrange for someone to find them for you." ”
Li Qian just nodded silently, he understood that his current mood was a little impatient, and he had been forcing himself to calm down, so as not to affect his judgment and decision in the future. Only in this way can it be possible to rescue the two girls as quickly as possible, before the gangsters cause harm to them.
But how can this kind of thing be forced to calm down by the slightest will of an individual?
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.
It can be said that Zijin and Zipei are the people Li Qian saw at first sight when he came to this era, and they are also the two people who have been with him the longest.
Perhaps even he didn't realize that he had already regarded the two of them as relatives, and treated these two little girls as if they were his sisters.
In Li Qian's bones, he is actually a very protective person, otherwise he would not have fought with Qian Dian because of Xiao Zhu, a small magistrate.
treats his subordinates like this, let alone Zijin Zipei, the two closest people around him?
Li Qian was sure that Zhao Peng had done this, but he also knew that Zhao Peng would not hide someone in his own house tonight------ although this person was very stupid, he was not so stupid that he would not guess that he might use the power of the government to search the mansion.
For a moment just now, Li Qian did have the intention of deducting Lao Zhao, because in this way, Zhao Peng's side would definitely throw a rat bogey, and he didn't dare to take those two girls easily.
But obviously, this is not in line with the rules, no matter how arrogant the government is, it can't detain a person for no reason, not to mention that the other party is still the grain chief of a district------ if he really wants to do this, Wang Zhixian will wait to be impeached by the imperial historians, and according to Lao Zhu's policy of preferential treatment of grain chiefs, Wang Zhixian will definitely be convicted for this.
What to do?
Li Qian thought hard for a long time, Huo Ran raised his head, and said to Xu Jie in a deep voice: "Immediately mobilize people and surround the Zhao family's courtyard for me!" ”
Xu Jie's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at him stunned and said, "Master Li, I'm afraid this ------ not in accordance with the rules?" ”
"How to disobey?"
"Master------ trespassing into a private house at night for no reason, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, it is a ------ with a staff of eighty" Xu Jie looked at him with an embarrassed face, and continued: "And there are many Zhao family nursing homes, and there are capable people from all over the world, all of whom are very skilled!" If we just break in, people will kill you on the spot, and you will still be in charge of the ------."
"Who told you to break into the house?" Li Qian glanced at him and said slowly: "I mean, you led people to chase a thief, and then saw the thief hiding in the Zhao family's courtyard------ so you should understand, right?" ”
Xu Jie's eyes widened this time, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and couldn't help laughing: "Master, good means!" ”
Subsequently, Xu Jie arranged for his subordinates to send Miss Li Jiasan back, and on the other hand, he ordered people to urgently mobilize the third class of officials to launch the largest search and arrest operation since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the ------ caught was just a small thief.
This night's Hangzhou city is destined to be unpeaceful, many of the fast and strong officers of the Qiantang County Ya were dragged out of the quilt, put on the official uniform in a daze, and then rushed to gather in front of the gate of the county ya.
Hundreds of errand soldiers, each holding a torch in their hands, formed a long line under the leadership of Xu Jie, the chief catcher of the third class, and went straight to the Zhao family courtyard in Qinghefang.
Hangzhou Mansion was shaken.
