Chapter 230: The thief provokes Xue Yan

Yan Nanwan frowned: "Do you suspect it has something to do with Lin Lan?"

Feng Lan shook her head: "I don't know." But anyone with this pattern on their bodies obeyed the orders of the Fengcheng City Lord. ”

"What do you mean?" Xue Yan became serious, "If you say this, the matter of Liu Village has something to do with the City Lord of Fengcheng?"

Lin Lan obeyed the orders of the Fengcheng City Lord, at the beginning, when he was in Liucun, Lin Lan wanted to pull him into the water, he had some doubts that the current Fengcheng City Lord was from the capital.

Feng Lan still shook her head: "I don't know if the matter of Liu Village has anything to do with the City Lord of Fengcheng, but the people with such a pattern on their bodies don't care who the City Lord of Fengcheng is, as long as that person is the City Lord of Fengcheng, they will obey their orders." ”

"Then what kind of existence do they have in Fengcheng?" Yan Nanwan felt strange, Fengcheng also has a government official mansion, and there is a city lord, can the official government really allow it to exist?

Feng Lan said: "The people of Fengcheng look for the government for trivial matters, and if it endangers the survival of life and death, they will go to the city lord's mansion, and Miss Yuxiao should also know." ”

Han Yuxiao nodded: "Yes, when my father was still alive, one year Fengcheng encountered a locust plague, and the people all went to the City Lord's Mansion, and it was also my father who opened a warehouse to release grain and led the entire people of Fengcheng to tide over the difficulties." ”

Xue Yan sneered: "No wonder, the government will allow the existence of the city lord." The city lord does good deeds and does not ask the court for gifts, these good deeds have been replaced by the officials of the government, they are really mutually beneficial!"

But no, one has won the hearts of the people of Fengcheng, and the other has been rewarded by the emperor!

"The City Lord of Fengcheng wants to rebel!" Yan Nan thought lately.

Several people looked at her in unison, and Feng Lan and Han Yuxiao were full of discomfort.

Yan Nanwan hurriedly explained: "I'm not talking about your father, I'm talking about the current Fengcheng City Lord." ”

"Now there is no city lord in Fengcheng. Feng Lan explained, "Since the Han family was destroyed, the City Lord's Mansion has been empty, and Fengcheng has no City Lord. ”

"But who are these people with patterns obeying now?" Yan Nanwan frowned, how could she feel that things were getting more and more complicated.

"I don't know. ”

Yan Nanwan shook her head: "Don't talk about it, use lunch, this matter will be investigated slowly, and I can't rush it." ”

Yan Nanchen smiled and responded: "You still know that it's good to have lunch, and I still want these big people to accompany you and keep thinking about the case!"

Yan Nanwan immediately laughed flatteringly: "How could it be." He put the vegetables in Yan Nanchen's bowl, "Brother, eat quickly." ”

Xue Yan watched Yan Nanwan help Yan Nanchen pick up vegetables, and quietly pushed his bowl in front of Yan Nanwan, raising his eyebrows and staring at her.

Yan Nanwan glanced at him, smiled, put the food into his bowl, and pushed the bowl back in front of him.

After lunch, Yan Nanwan stayed in the Yan Mansion all the time, thinking about what to do next, Xue Yan followed her back to her courtyard and accompanied her.

She sat thinking about the case, and he sat watching her.

Yan Nanwan was so engrossed in thinking about the case at first that she didn't care about his gaze, but then his gaze was too strong to make it difficult for her to ignore it, she looked at him, blinked, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xue Yan shook his head: "It's okay, look at you." ”

"You have a problem with your brain!" Yan Nanwan rolled her eyes, took the book and threw it to him, "If you are idle, just read the children's book." ”

Xue Yan smiled and caught the book she threw over, and looked down, it was a strange travelogue, she really liked to read this kind of book, and flipped through it casually.

Xue Yan had dinner from Yan Mansion before leaving, and teased Yan Nan for a long time before leaving.

I got off the carriage and walked to the gate of the prince's mansion, and before I stepped inside, I heard the house shouting: "Catch the thief, catch the thief......"

Hearing this, Xue Yan said to Ling Sheng behind him, "Go and have a look." ”

Ling Sheng gave up his hand and left in a flash.

Xue Yan entered the prince's mansion, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the man in black standing on the roof with only two eyes exposed, carrying a large package behind his back, although he was far away, he still vaguely saw the smugness and provocation of the man in black.

Ling Sheng went straight up, stopped in front of the man in black, and said coldly: "Things stay, people stay." ”

The man in black laughed disdainfully: "It's up to you, dream." After that, he escaped from Ling Sheng's obstruction like a loach.

Xue Yan stood in the courtyard, looking at the light skills of the man in black, it was absolutely superior, and Ling Sheng obviously couldn't catch him. Xue Yan flew up, landed in front of the man in black, and looked at him coldly: "Who are you?"

"Can't you see it?" the man in black patted the big package on his back, "Thief, thief can't see it, you're blind!"

Xue Yan was furious, didn't say a word, and started to move.

The man in black naturally couldn't beat him, but the man in black ran fast and did well, and after a while, he ran a lot farther, turned his head, and shouted at Xue Yan: "You tell that Lord Yan, I will come back tomorrow night, let her wait for me in the prince's mansion, I want to see if she can catch me!"

Ling Sheng stood behind Xue Yan, looking at the quickly disappearing back of the man in black, as well as the words left behind, and shuddered.

Xue Yanfei got off the roof, Ling Sheng followed closely behind, stood behind him, and asked cautiously, "Master, ...... this matter?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, if he dares to steal the prince's mansion, he will arrest me back!"

"Yes, my subordinates will do it. Ling Sheng arched his hand, turned around and prepared to leave.

Xue Yan said again: "Don't let Nanwan know about tonight's affairs." ”

Ling Sheng raised his head and looked at Xue Yan's back, and shook his head, the master was originally afraid of losing face in front of Lord Yan. Thinking about it, the thief's purpose in coming to the Prince's Mansion was to provoke Lord Yan, which is not obviously not taking the master seriously.

The master is a person who wants to save face in front of his own woman, how can this kind of thing be known to Lord Yan.

The next day, after Yan Nan got out of the morning court in the evening, he went to Dali Temple and asked Zhang Yu about the progress of yesterday's investigation.

"My lord, it can be concluded that the murderer's tool of crime is a weapon with teeth. Zhang Yu said, "I saw traces of tooth cuts on some of the broken corpses. ”

Yan Nanwan got up: "Where is the body now?"

"In the prison, Mr. Zhu San and Miss Dusk are still investigating. ”

"Let's see. ”

In the prison, Zhu San and Twilight focused on examining the corpse. Even Zhang Yu and Yan Nanwan didn't notice when they came in, Yan Nanwan waved her hand, not letting anyone disturb them, she stood not far away and looked at Dusk Shu's serious appearance, and smiled with relief, it was really a correct decision to let this girl follow Zhusan.

The sound of hurried footsteps outside the prison sounded, and Zhu San and Dusk Shu realized that someone was coming, and turned around together to see Yan Nanwan: "Miss." ”

Yan Nanwan nodded: "You continue." ”

A servant walked in from outside: "My lord, the prince's mansion was robbed again last night. ”
