Chapter 50: An Lu Mansion Comes to Ask for His Life Impermanently
The next morning, in the middle of the morning, the genius was bright, and Liu Datao had already come to the door of Master Qian's house, and after hesitating, he knocked on the door. After a while, an impatient old voice came from inside. "Who! If you don't sleep in the morning, what door do you come to knock on? ”
Liu Datao is not stupid, the people who can be the disciples are all cronies of the head of the family, but they can not distinguish between men and women, old and young, so he said carelessly: "Uncle, the little one has something important to report to Master Qian, and I told Master Qian last night." ”
The door didn't open the door, just said a word and turned away. "Wait."
A quarter of an hour later, the door opened the side door and let Liu Datao into the house, then closed the door and led him to the study. Master Qian was wearing a nightgown, his hair was still scattered, his eyes were a little blank, and he was woken up in his sleep at first glance.
Liu Datao didn't talk nonsense, bowed and said directly: "Master, what you ordered last night has an eyebrow." Lee's only account book was not in his possession, but had been stolen by thieves a month earlier. ”
Master Qian, who was still a little unconscious, suddenly fell asleep, and said in a lost voice: "What! Stolen? That's how it can be good. He walked back and forth in the study for a few steps, and then asked, "Did you ask him if he had any suspicions?" ”
The villain asked, and Li Wei said that the thieves might be related to the Deng family in Qingping County. Because he was going to deal with the Deng family, the yamen accidentally caught fire, and then the account books were stolen that night. The affairs of the Deng family will be over. ”
Master Qian knows that there is a direction, and it is much better than looking for it aimlessly. "yes, I see. Is Lee the only one okay? Will others see what is wrong? ”
Liu Datao smiled smugly and said, "Master, don't worry! Li Wei was unharmed, and even an insider could not tell from his body that he had been tortured. It's just that... It's just that because he was greatly stimulated, his consciousness was not very clear for the time being. ”
Master Qian thinks that this is not a big problem, after all, he is a prisoner in the final analysis, and it is normal to be abnormal. "It's okay, you've done a good job in this matter, and I'll tell you the truth."
Liu Datao was inexplicably surprised, he could finally show his face in front of the prefect, and he usually didn't have such an opportunity. "Thank you Master for your cultivation!" Seeing Master Qian's head and no longer speaking, he consciously withdrew from the study, and then went out to prepare to return to the cell. Walking on the road where no one was around, Liu Datao felt that his body was about to float, and he couldn't help humming a piece of Lu Opera: "...... Although the six brothers treated me very well, they were afraid that I was only interested in him, but he had no intention. If you have the heart to find someone to come up with an idea, how can you talk about it. I hope someone will come and pull me along, and see the sunny sky as soon as possible to clear the dark clouds. ”
After Master Qian sat in the study and thought things through, he didn't feel sleepy, so he went back to the bedroom to pack up and prepare to see the prefect Zhou Wudao. When he arrived at the backyard of the mansion, he learned that the proprietor was still having breakfast, so he sat in the living room and drank tea with a teacup. After nearly half an hour, Zhou Wudao came out after finishing his meal and changing his clothes.
Zhou Wudao sat down and took a cup of tea and drank two sips before asking, "Master, why did you come so early today, do you have something important?" ”
Master Qian hurriedly replied: "My lord, the matter you explained the day before yesterday has an eyebrow. ”
Zhou Wudao continued to drink tea, and then said: "This official has some official letters in the study, which needs to be dealt with." Master Qian put down the teacup and followed Zhou Wudao to the study.
After entering the study room, when Zhou Wudao sat down, Master Qian couldn't wait to say: "The proprietor, Li Wei confessed that the account book had been stolen by thieves a month ago, and now his whereabouts are unknown. He suspected that the thieves had something to do with the Deng family, who were in the silk business in Qingping County, but he was not sure yet. ”
Zhou Wudao pondered after hearing this, "Well, since there is really this account book, it is better to find it back." Regardless of whether you are sure or not, just look it up. ”
"Proprietor, how should we deal with Li's only matter?"
"Since the books are not in his possession, let him go. But it's better to stabilize him first and don't let him talk nonsense. Wait until you get the account books to see the situation before you think about it. ”
Master Qian understood, and then said, "The proprietor, then I'll arrange it." ”
Zhou Wudao saw that Master Qian had already walked to the door of the study, and casually ordered, "Call Nie Wuchang over when you go out." ”
Since Nie Wuchang was successfully promoted to the chief catcher of Anlu Mansion, it was a spring breeze, and he has been touted by outsiders as the prefect's henchman. Under the rule of Anlu Mansion, no one did not give him three points of thin noodles, and the large gangs that ignored him in the past would also take the initiative to pay their money. So, after he ruthlessly cleaned up a few gangs that didn't open their eyes, the black and white impermanence title also spread far and wide, and now it can stop children crying at night. However, he was also very worried in his heart, because he had not been in contact with the prefect since the last massacre, which made him sometimes dream back at midnight and often worry that if he didn't pay attention, he would be replaced. has already stood at this height, and let him return to the position of the head catcher in Bu Kuai, it is better to kill him. Hearing Master Qian coming to pass the word, he immediately put down everything and hurried to the backyard study. It is worth mentioning that he felt that the three thousand taels he gave to Master Qian some time ago was really worth it, because the latter's attitude not only changed immediately, but also took care of him a lot, although it was most of his savings. Nie Wuchang knocked lightly on the door, and only after hearing the sound from inside did he lower his head and walked into the study.
Zhou Wudao asked with a smile: "Mr. Han, now your burden is much heavier than before, are you still adapting?" ”
Nie Wuchang lowered his head and replied, "Lord Xie cares!" Everything is fine with the subordinates. I will definitely do my best in the future, and I will definitely not disappoint adults. ”
"Well, I also heard from Master Qian that you did a good job. So when this official encounters this important matter, the first thing that comes to mind is you. ”
Nie Wuchang was even more excited when he heard it, this is the rhythm of becoming a hardcore henchman, he is not afraid of many things now, he is afraid that he will be fine. Only by handling things for the prefect will his position be as stable as Mount Tai. "If the lord has something to order, his subordinates will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire."
Zhou Wudao waved his hand and said, "It's not so serious. Lord Yushi Sun came to investigate the case with the imperial order, but failed to find an important account book. He lowered his face and begged the senior, the official, but the official really couldn't refuse. This ledger originally belonged to Qingping County Ling Li Weiwei, and was stolen by thieves for some reason a month ago. According to Li's only confession, the thieves should have a close relationship with the Deng family in Qingping County, and you can start from this aspect. When you go to Qingping County to find it this time, be sure to bring the account book back, and you must also pay attention to confidentiality. If necessary, we will allow you to act on the opportunistic basis. ”
After what happened last time, Nie Wuchang seemed to have opened his mind, and he immediately understood the meaning of the prefect - don't leave a living mouth, so he nodded heavily and said, "The villain will do it." At this point, he didn't have the same conscience as he did the first time. It seems that once man's evil is brought out, it will be very easy to fall. After speaking, he withdrew from the study, returned to the yamen to explain a few words, took the necessary tools and set off for Qingping County.
At this time, Xu Anping thought that the matter between Li Weiwei and the Deng family had come to an end, and was wandering around the street with Deng Xiaoke, thinking about whether he was going back to Yujia Village to see Yi Lian'er in the next few days. Well, I'm going to go to the blacksmith to make another dagger. What excuse will you use this time? said that the dagger was broken last time, will it be beaten by the master blacksmith?
