Chapter 298: Mysterious Event

Yang Jian nodded and said: "The first step has been successfully executed, and it will be up to you later, as long as you arrange it over there, my third step can be carried out." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Yuan Hong nodded and said: "So I can rest assured, I don't have to worry about you here, I will definitely not drop the chain." After that, he seemed to be very thirsty, snatched the teacup in Yang Jian's hand, and drank it with a bang. After drinking, Yuan Hong wiped his mouth and said, "I have other things to arrange here, so I won't accompany you, farewell." ā€

Yang Jian originally wanted to tell him about what happened in the Yang Mansion yesterday, but when he thought about it, it was a bit too early to make a conclusion, so he replied indifferently: "Okay, you go first, I still have some things to do here, remember to inform me at any time when there is news, I don't think Lao Li's life in Xiangguo Mansion is not easy." Yuan Hong nodded, his eyes were full of trust and said: "I know that you kid is worth entrusting at a critical juncture, and I thank you for Lao Li." ā€

Yang Jian said a little unhappily: "Thank you, Lao Li is also my brother, isn't it natural for me to save him?" Yuan Hong grabbed his hand and nodded vigorously, then turned to leave. Yang Jian came to the window and looked at the street, only to see Yuan Hong enter a carriage, and then the carriage left quickly, but there were two people unhurriedly not far behind the carriage, and this kid was really being watched.

Yang Jian sneaked out of the back door of the Drunken Immortal Building, he changed into a waiter's clothes in the house, and deliberately lowered the brim of his hat so that people couldn't see his true face. If Yuan Hong is being targeted, then he must also be targeted. He didn't want to reveal his whereabouts too much until he figured out who the people who were watching him were.

Back at the Yang Mansion, the first thing Yang Jian did when he got off the horse was to ask Menzi: "Is the housekeeper back?" Menzi said that the housekeeper went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet. Yang Jian didn't care, turned around and went into the house. When it was time for dinner, before the housekeeper came back, Yang Jian felt that something was wrong, so he called the second housekeeper and the head of the guard team, Yang Jian sat at the dinner table and asked, "How many people did the housekeeper take out today?" ā€

The head of the team and the second housekeeper glanced at each other, and then the head of the team said, "He didn't bring anyone, he went out alone." Yang Jian sighed and continued to ask, "Then when did he go out?" Did he tell you where he had gone when he went out? "The housekeeper in the house has been out for a day and has not returned, as the master, he naturally has to ask, otherwise the people below will be suspicious.

The second butler replied, "The butler didn't say where to go, but just casually said that he might come back late today." Other things are not very clear. "It seems that the butler did not mention to anyone what he wanted him to do, but here comes the problem. The Wei family and the Yang family were originally not far away, and it stands to reason that he should have come back a long time ago, and he couldn't be absent during the day. This is not in line with common sense, unless the housekeeper encounters something that delays his trip home, or that he is in danger, it is impossible to return to the Yang Mansion at all.

But Yang Jianjian couldn't figure out who would dare to treat the Yang family's housekeeper like this, and who in Chang'an City didn't know the Yang family's housekeeper? Especially after the last lawsuit with the Wei family, because the housekeeper was involved in the whole process, the appearance rate and exposure rate were very high, and the familiar face was touched and written down by many people, and wherever he went out, someone pointed at him in private: "This is the housekeeper of the Yang Mansion." ā€

But Yang Jian has not been able to publicize the matter of the housekeeper so far, and he is at most secretly investigating this matter. After the lights went out at night, Yang Jian was sleeping alone in his room, and suddenly heard something moving outside the window, he jumped up very vigilantly, took off the sword on the wall at the head of the bed, and secretly hid under the window to look outside, the moonlight tonight was not very clear, and he saw that something seemed to be moving in the corner of the dark courtyard near the corridor.

But because it was too far away to see clearly, Yang Jian turned around and opened the door, pulled out his sword, and shouted: "Who's there!" As he spoke, he rushed over with his sword, only to see a dark figure in the corner moving around, and it was the night guard who came with a lantern. As soon as he saw that there was a situation, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Who is where?" Yang Jian then said: "It's me, your lantern is here, there seems to be something here." As soon as the guards heard Yang Jian's voice, they hurriedly surrounded him.

The captain of the guard shone the lantern in his hand forward, and saw a person tied in the grass, and saw that this person was covered with a black cloth bag on his head, his hands and feet were tied behind his back, and his mouth seemed to be gagged with something, and he was shouting heavily. Yang Jian stepped forward and asked, "Who is it?" Don't move! As he spoke, he used the sword in his hand to pick up the hemp rope tied to him, and the man hurriedly turned over and lifted the cloth bag on his head, and everyone couldn't help but be taken aback, it turned out that this person was the butler.

Yang Jian looked for him for a day, but at this moment he was tied hand and foot and thrown into the yard, this matter is getting more and more weird, what scares Yang Jian the most is that this person is so good at kung fu that he can quietly enter his backyard twice before and after, this heavily guarded is equivalent to decoration for him, and it doesn't work at all. Yang Jian stepped forward and grabbed the housekeeper and asked, "How did you get tied up?" ā€

The housekeeper took out the strip of cloth in his mouth and said with palpitations: "Childe, I'll take a breath first, I was really scared to death just now." There were a lot of people at the scene, and Yang Jian was not good at asking anything, so he asked people to help him to the guest room to rest first, and let the servants bring food and drink, and the housekeeper was hungry at the moment and gobbled it up. After a while, all the food on the table was swept away by him.

Yang Jian picked up a cup of tea and handed it to him, and then he asked in a low voice, "What happened to you just now?" The housekeeper said with trepidation: "Childe, don't tell you anything, didn't I go to the Wei family today to inquire about the news as you instructed?" In the morning, I hid in the hut opposite Wei's house to watch, after lunch somehow I felt weak and wanted to sleep, and then I fell asleep groggily, and when I woke up again, I found that I was tied up by a man in black, put a black mask on my head, and carried me all the way I don't know where I went, and then he threw me into a pile of grass and disappeared away. ā€

Yang Jian asked curiously, "You didn't see his face clearly?" The housekeeper nodded and said: "I saw him before I was hooded, this person is not tall, thin and small, but his kung fu is very good, it is not difficult for a big man like me to be carried by him at all, Childe, we should not be the ones who provoke Xiaoyao Pavilion." Yang Jian trembled when he heard the three words of Xiaoyao Pavilion, he had heard his father talk about this organization a long time ago, it was said that it was an assassination organization cultivated by Yuwentai himself, and the people in it were all skilled, and they were all bloodthirsty outlaws.

However, in the past two years, it has been rare to hear the name of Xiaoyao Pavilion, and it stands to reason that the Yang family is unlikely to provoke their talents, unless someone hires them to fight against the Yang family, which is very likely. But who will hire them? In Chang'an City, there is no one else in Chang'an City who can't get along with the Yang family except the Wei family, but if the Wei family wants to let the people of Xiaoyao Pavilion interfere, then there should have been a rumor that it will be revealed, and there is no reason to make a move at this time, which is obviously unreasonable.
