Chapter 70: Climb over the wall and enter the courtyard
"This, ahem, this Sister Chen," the woman claimed to be Chen Yang's name, Hu Fei thought about it, and held back such a strange title as Sister Chen, and then spoke much more smoothly with the title, "Your experience is really sympathetic." We must not let go of that guy who not only bullied you but also beat people, no matter how big an official he is! The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and I will fight this lawsuit for you! ”
"Ouch, big brother, ah, no, Lord Qingtian! Please Lord Qingtian to call the shots for me, I still want to go back to Master Zheng's house to work. This woman probably regarded Hu Fei as a big official in the play, and kowtowed to the eldest master when she lay on the ground.
Although this woman's conjecture was completely unrelated to the facts, Hu Fei didn't have the slightest intention to explain, and he thought it seemed interesting to do so. Just stood there and accepted the great gift of worship with peace of mind.
After the woman kowtowed a few times in a proper manner, he reached out and helped the person up, "Okay, what about your business, I'll take care of it this time." But you have to help, too. I want to enter this courtyard to investigate and collect evidence, and only when I find evidence and meet people in person can I talk to him about the law! As for you, just figure out how to get me and my guards into this courtyard. ”
Since this woman has been able to work in this courtyard for twenty-four years, Hu Fei doesn't believe that she has no way to enter the courtyard!
As soon as the woman heard about her affairs, Hu Fei took care of it, and immediately came to her senses! The teary eyes that were still rubbing just now are now wide. Want to go into the yard? Hu Fei asked her if she really asked the right person, this woman really has a way!
Regardless of the injuries on her body, the woman struggled to stand up and led Hu Fei and them along the white wall. After walking for about ten minutes, the woman stood still, and the courtyard wall where she was standing was a passage in and out of this courtyard!
How can it be a sidewalk? Of course, it's not that the courtyard wall is collapsing. If the courtyard wall of Zheng Wan's house collapses, he can repair it at any time, and his family is not short of money! Six or seven meters away from the walls of this courtyard, there was an old pine tree, with dense branches and leaves, and a tall crown. What is especially rare is that the branches of this old pine tree are all horizontal, and the crown of the pine tree is even larger.
The branches that grew at the bottom began to grow more than two feet above the ground, and every one or two feet there was a horizontal branch, all the way up to the top. Two or three meters away, there are a few horizontal branches that grow very long, and even extend into the courtyard wall, and two of them are even placed on the courtyard wall, which looks like a natural ladder over the wall!
Hey, if this woman hadn't brought people here herself, if she wanted to discover this, she would have to go around the courtyard wall of the Zheng family!
Hu Fei was secretly proud and told the woman to let her go home first and wait. When the others left, Hu Fei and his twenty or so brothers walked up the pine tree to the courtyard wall without difficulty. Originally, Hu Fei thought that he would have to jump off the wall more than two meters high, who would have thought that the courtyard was actually a roof, and there was a low chimney at the edge of the roof that was emitting black smoke, and it seemed that this should be the kitchen of Zheng Wan's family.
After turning around the roof and finding a ladder, more than two dozen people went down to the ground. It turns out that it's so easy to enter this yard! Hu Fei is a little more grateful to that unlucky woman, so let's help her vent by the way!
This is the backyard, Hu Fei first observed the nearby houses, and found no one that looked like Ling Yinqing's headquarters. Since there was smoke coming from the kitchen chimney, someone must be cooking there. The people in the kitchen must know where Commander-in-Chief Daoling and his chief of staff are, yes, ask them for directions. Having made up his mind, Hu Fei went headlong into the kitchen.
The kitchen was smoky, and a few people were busy working by the stove. The chef was busy cooking and didn't pay attention, but the two pickers who were squatting on the other side noticed a stranger coming to the door.
"Who are you looking for?" The two middle-aged women picking vegetables looked at the stranger they had never seen before, obviously surprised.
"I'm Chen Yang's brother, my sister just came home and said that she was bullied in this family, and I came to reason with the person who bullied her! Big brothers and sisters, who of you knows where that bastard is? Hu Fei made up an identity for himself casually. Since Chen Yang has worked in Zheng Million's family for so many years, she knows this way, and eighty percent of the people in the kitchen know her.
Sure enough, as soon as they heard that this handsome young descendant was Chen Yang's brother, the two women who were picking vegetables immediately stood up, took Hu Fei's hand and went to the kitchen. not only brought out two plates of dim sum for Hu Fei to eat, but also kept inquiring about Chen Yang's current situation. Of course, at the same time, the two women also inquired about Hu Fei's personal situation by the way, such as how old the little brother is, and whether he is married or anything.
Cooking, chopping, kneading dough, more than a dozen cooks put down their work and gathered around, chattering and joining the ranks of interrogation.
How could Hu Fei have the strength to deal with these people, so he casually made up two sentences and inquired about the person who bullied Chen Yang's family. While persuading Hu Fei not to be reckless, the cooks also told him the location of the room where the bastard lives now, and as for the name and occupation of the people, none of these cooks can say.
That's enough! After grabbing a few pieces of dim sum and thanking these enthusiastic kitchen staff, Hu Fei went out of the kitchen and went to the guy's residence.
Turning the corner, the house in front of me is where the cooks say. Hu flew to the door and looked, hey! There were four puppet soldiers standing guard at the door of that room with guns! Well, this time, apart from Ling Yinqing and his chief of staff Feng Xianzhou, who else can have such a big pomp?
"Chief of Staff Feng, where is Chief of Staff Feng?" When he arrived at the place, Hu Fei didn't hide anymore, just shouted so loudly, and swaggered towards the house guarded by the puppet army.
Of course, the puppet army who guarded the door would not just let Hu Fei in, but these boys did not immediately pull the bolt to strengthen their vigilance. Hu Fei came from the backyard of Zheng Million's house, even if he was followed by a large group of people, but the yard of Zheng Million's house was so big, and there were dozens of families, which was not surprising.
The puppet army stopped Hu Fei and asked him where he came from, and Hu Fei took out what he told the cooks. Chief of Staff Feng Xianzhou spoiled his cousin, not only was he not responsible, but he also beat people! He, who is a cousin, is here to ask Chief of Staff Feng for an explanation!
His eldest cousin is the deputy director of finance in the province, his cousin is the secretary of the county magistrate, and his cousin works as a translator in the Japanese! In short, there are a lot of relatives of the emperor, and if they provoke their family, even Chief of Staff Feng has to go around without food!
Oh, as soon as this large number of shining cousins came out, the faces of the four puppet soldiers at the door were all green at that time, where is this? The puppet soldiers didn't believe that an old mother could have so many prominent relatives, but seeing the arrogant appearance of these people in front of them, they didn't dare to just blow people away. As soon as a few puppet soldiers discussed, they simply sent in a report!
