Chapter 30: A Thief?
"Lord Liu, the lower officials are willing to go back with you to be investigated, but there is still a great risk in the river dam in Los Angeles, I hope the imperial court can send someone to repair it as soon as possible, so as not to break the embankment again and affect the people in the city!"
Glancing at the roaring waves of the Black Sea, a look of worry flashed between Zheng Zerun's eyebrows.
"This is natural, after Lord Zheng leaves, someone will soon come to take over Lord Zheng's work, you don't have to worry!" After speaking, Liu Wenzhi turned around and impatiently dropped three words, "Hurry up and take it away!" ”
"Your Excellency!" Knowing that this trip must be more auspicious, the guards of the government shouted worriedly, and at the same time unwillingly followed Zheng Zerun, who was escorted in front.
"Stand down!" Sternly stopped the people, and then Zheng Zerun changed his tone and said: "In the future, you must protect the people of Los Angeles well!" In the end, Zheng Zerun never looked back.
When he was a child, Liu Fu.
The candles in all the rooms had been extinguished, and the entire courtyard was pitch black, and a black shadow was hidden on the roof, carefully probing the surrounding situation, and after making sure that there was no one, he turned over and jumped down.
Gently pushing open the door, the man in black tiptoed in, the bedding on the bed was neatly stacked, the owner of this room was not at home tonight.
Taking out the fire fold that had been prepared in the morning, the man in black began to rummage around the room, the bedside, drawers, and everywhere he could, but he never found what he wanted.
"Didn't Liu Wenzhi put those things in his room?" The man in black pondered in his heart.
"Impossible!" Soon the man in black denied his guess just now, "Liu Wenzhi is cautious, things that are related to his family's life, eighty percent can only be relieved if he puts it next to his pillow!" ”
"Pillow?" Suddenly thinking of something, the man in black immediately turned back in the direction of the bed.
Just now, he had found all the pillows, quilts, and mattresses, and since they weren't on the surface, ......
Thinking about it, the man in black raised the fire fold in his hand and carefully observed the carved wooden board at the head of the bed, as if he had found something, the man in black stretched out his index finger and gently buckled it somewhere.
Sure enough, the inside was hollow, and through the veil, it could also be seen that the corners of the black-clothed man's lips were obviously raised upwards by an arc.
Touching an inconspicuous bulge on the bed board, he pressed it gently, and a dark grid immediately opened on the carved wooden board.
Two thick notebooks came into view, and the man in black immediately reached out and took out the notebook inside, opened it to see, and a touch of pride flashed in his eyes.
After finding a few more important pages, he tore them off and put them in his arms, and the man in black put the two booklets back again, closed the secret compartment, and after everything was restored to its original state, he blew out the fire fold in his hand, raised his feet and walked out.
As soon as he walked out, the man in black suddenly heard a clear whistle not far away, and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a person swaying and walking this way.
Quickly dodging behind the wall, the man in black nervously probed the man's movements, seeing that he was getting closer and closer to him, the man in black had a silver needle in his hand, ready to strike at any time.
But who knew that the man was walking and suddenly turned into a remote room, it turned out to be night, the man in black breathed a sigh of relief, and the silver needle in his hand was immediately put away.
Taking advantage of the man's kung fu in the thatched house, the man in black tapped his toes and quickly performed light skills and left.
Ruiling Palace, Snow Moon Residence.
The candle in the house has been extinguished, and He Mu went to bed early tonight, but she couldn't fall asleep over and over, thinking about the few conversations with Bei Mingchen during the day, for some reason, her heart was always faintly uneasy.
What kind of person is he? Since he knew that Gu Shichong had planted eyeliner beside him and wanted to use poison to control him, why did he do nothing?
I really don't know what's going on with myself, I can't help but worry about him, He Muwan can't help but scold in his heart, he must be idle and have nothing to do!
Thinking about it, she unconsciously thought of Bei Yingyan again.
Once they have seen the sunrise and sunset together, the sea and blue sky together, heard the birds, beasts and insects, flown kites together, and fought water fights......
All the bits and pieces of beauty are like yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, they are strangers.
All the romance they experienced together was the best memory of her life, but what impressed her the most was always their first encounter in the snow on that day.
Just after she saw the bewitching handsome face of the person who reached out and took her body down, one of her hearts fell from then on, even if she thought about it now, He Muwan's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
What if the person you met at the beginning was the North Underworld? So will you fall in love with him as much as you fall in love with Bei Mingyan? Unconsciously, such a question popped up in He Muwan's mind.
"He Muwan, what do you want?" Muttering in her heart, she quickly shook her head and brought herself back to her senses.
Closing her eyes, He Muwan didn't want to think about those who had or didn't, and just convinced herself that she was ready to fall asleep, she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside.
In the silence of the night, the voice was heard very clearly, and he felt that the footsteps were gradually approaching his room, and He Muwan's heart rose to his throat.
In the middle of the night, there will be no thieves in the palace, what should I do, He Muwan's heart went up and down, because of nervousness, she even became cautious about breathing.
No, she can't sit still, thinking like this, He Muwan quickly got up from the bed and searched around, He Muwan wiped the vase on the table, picked it up and hid behind the door.
The thief really came to her room, and the door was suddenly rudely pushed open, and He Muwan immediately raised the vase in his hand and smashed it towards the back of the person's neck.
But because he had never done anything like this before, He Muwan's hands holding the vase kept trembling because of nervousness.
The person who came in seemed to notice something, and suddenly turned around, his actions startled He Muwan, who was already trembling, and the vase he lifted failed to hold it steady, and fell off directly on the top of his head.
Fortunately, the man who broke in was quick-eyed, and before the vase hit He Muwan, he pulled her away, and the vase fell to the ground with a "bang" and fell to pieces in an instant.
When He Muwan came back from the fright, his whole body had half collapsed into the man's arms, and his body exuded a strong smell of wine.
Although there was no light in the house, the moonlight seemed to be exceptionally bright tonight, and He Muwan finally breathed a sigh of relief on the familiar handsome face, fortunately he was not a thief.
