Chapter 181 Time is running out

"Nan Chen, you go and inquire about what's going on."

After instructing Ye Yan, he waited for Nan Chen to come back and pass the word, but Nan Chen seemed to have a misunderstanding of what she said, and directly "raised" a rather leisurely officer and soldier back.

The officer and soldier rolled their eyes in their hearts, and explained to Xiang Yeqi in person: "I don't know what's going on with this Li restaurant, it actually provoked some Hu people, and last night, it was looted by Hu people, and people were injured a lot, alas, it's really unlucky!" But those Hu people, I'm afraid that they have already slipped out of the city, and if they want to ask for an explanation, it is estimated that it will be difficult! ”

The money was lost, and she could still earn it back, but as soon as Xiang Yeqi heard that someone was hurt, she didn't have time to thank the officers and soldiers who explained it to her, so she jumped out of the carriage and squeezed into the crowd.

"Boss Li, if you want to open a little, this is so bad, your life is saved! You can rest assured, the government will investigate this matter thoroughly and help you find an explanation! ”

The official led by the official only said a few polite words to comfort Miss Feng Jiao, and then left in a hurry with his subordinates, leaving only a group of people outside the door sighing: "It's really not easy for this Boss Li to do business!" At this time, I suffered such a catastrophe. ”

Xiang Yeqi finally got through the layers of crowds and squeezed into the hotel lobby, those officials who investigated the case would gather the parties together in order to facilitate the lecture, because they knew this, Xiang Yeqi examined the scene in the lobby, those familiar faces were there, although they were drenched in blood, but they were almost not seriously injured.

Only Miss Feng Jiao seemed to have broken her head, covering her forehead with a blood-soaked handkerchief, gritting her teeth and enduring the pain.

But Xiang Yeqi quickly reacted - Wu Zixi is not here!

She hurriedly stepped forward, and first handed a fairly clean handkerchief to Miss Feng Jiao, "Miss Feng Jiao, have you seen the county lord of the Chang Dynasty?" Is there anything wrong with her? ”

Seeing Xiang Yeqi, Miss Feng Jiao's face improved, and compared with those officers and soldiers who could only talk about the scene, she trusted Xiang Yeqi more.

"It's strange to say." Miss Feng Jiao sighed in annoyance, "I am tired of the guards of the fourth princess to help close the door, and there are some things that are difficult to say to outsiders." ”

There was no need to re-instruct the night at all, Nan Chen consciously closed the door from the outside, and took his hands to evacuate the people who were watching the excitement.

Miss Feng Jiao finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Something happened." Last night, I heard footsteps outside the house, and I bumped into those Hu people, although it was the first time I saw them, but they were also inseparable from what I imagined - very scary. ”

"I thought that those Hu people were forced to rob money for their livelihood, but after they pushed them to the ground, I simply pretended to be dizzy, thinking that it would be better for them to take the money and leave earlier. But I just checked, and those Hu people didn't take anything of value at all, but they were like making a show, and there was some other purpose! ”

Miss Feng Jiao obviously thought of going with Xiang Yeqi, "If these people are coming at me, how can they let me lie on the ground?" At least I should see if I am dead or alive, and the few chefs who stayed in the restaurant are also safe and sound. This look is for the county lord! Thinking of this, I hurried to the county lord's room, only to see the girl Zhaohua lying in a pool of blood, and she had already been sent to the hospital for treatment......"

She may not know who Wu Zixi has such a grudge with, but Xiang Yeqian is very clear - besides Gu Yanchao, who else could there be? It's just that Xiang Yeyan and Bo Zhaoxu both thought that Gu Yanchao must have fled the capital overnight in this catastrophe, but they really didn't expect Gu Yanchao to leave such a backhand.

After appeasing Miss Feng Jiao for a few words, Xiang Yeqi went to the medical hall where Zhaohua was.

When she went, Zhaohua was just a little sober, grabbed Xiang Yeqi's arm and muttered, "County Lord, County Lord......"

As if she had woken up from a nightmare, Zhaohua sat up from the bed suddenly, "Where is the county lord?" She had hoped that everything before she had passed out had been a nightmare, but when she sat up, it was like a tearing pain, reminding Tenika that everything was real.

She really didn't protect Wu Zixi.

"I don't know."

Xiang Yeyan shook his head in embarrassment, and inevitably blamed himself for last night's incident: "I don't know that such a big incident happened in the restaurant, who took away the county lord of the Chang Dynasty, do you have any impression?" ”

"It's Gu Yanchao!"

As soon as Zhaohua thought of this name, she gritted her teeth with hatred, as if she could bite Gu Yanchao's bones if she bit the three words she hated.

"The slave maid thought that she would be able to protect the county lord with this life, but she didn't expect that the slave maid was really not angry, why did she faint! Why, what......" She slapped her legs so hard that she took all the blame on herself, and tears fell on the back of her hand as if they had broken threads.

"Zhaohua, don't cry in a hurry. If he has the ability to kidnap your county lord, I will have the ability to bring people back! Do you remember what they said? Did you mention where you were going? ”

Xiang Yeyan smiled and wiped her tears for Zhaohua, even if she was worried, but if everyone made a mess, it would hurt Wu Zixi.

"The slave doesn't remember."

The more she couldn't remember everything before she fainted, the more Teruka hated her incompetence.

"It's okay, I'll go back to find someone to check the clues first, you take care of your body first, if you think of something, just send someone to find me." I really can't think of it, and I don't have to blame myself. ”

After instructing Nan Chen to transfer some men to guard the medical hall, he rushed back to the Four Princes' Mansion. When she went back, Bo Zhaoxu was severely interrogating the old lady Gu.

The titular old lady Gu was still wearing the same purple dress that Xiang Yeqi had seen last time, and if she ignored the puddle of blood stains on her chest, she could also be called a generous and decent lady.

Catching a glimpse of the dried blood stains on the corners of Old Madam Gu's mouth, she asked Ye Yan curiously, "You have already tried this person?" Did you find anything? ”

"The servants of the Gu Mansion, this king has already sent people to check them one by one, and they are all ordinary people. Only this ...... The king has not yet tried it, and her internal wounds were left on that day and night. ”

It is not difficult to speculate why Gu Yanchao left this old lady Gu, because she vomited blood and looked like she was going to die, Gu Yanchao was so shrewd, naturally she would not bring a burden in her eyes.

Old Madam Gu sneered coldly, and was very disdainful of what Bo Zhaoxu said: "What kind of method did you use to make the old body be eaten up to this point - is it possible, the Dog Emperor is dead?" ”

Bo Zhaoxu looked at Xiang Yeqi and shook her head helplessly, although Old Madam Gu was very tough, but after being captured by Bo Zhaoxu, she really didn't know anything about the outside world.

"No one cares about you being backlashed, let me ask you, do you know where Gu Yanchao fled?"

Xiang Yeqi rushed in front of Old Madam Gu in a menacing manner, and looked around again, there were some torture tools that she either knew or didn't know, just one glance made people creepy. She pointed to the most terrifying soldering iron in the interrogation room at first glance, and threatened: "If you don't say it, I will try every torture instrument in this room!" Old Madam Gu shouldn't have forgotten, I slapped you, right? ”

Old Madam Gu snorted coldly, and actually took a sip unceremoniously.

"If you want to say where that little thing of revenge is hiding, I really don't know! That's a cunning character, and now you're trying to arrest himβ€”it's hard! If you want my mother-in-law, I said, you just asked the wrong person, hmph, if I knew where this little thing had escaped, I would still be captured by you? Mother-in-law, I must be the first to take his life, kicking his head as a ball! ”

But her tone was obviously much calmer than just now, and the few unsparing slaps to the night still left a slight shadow on Old Madam Gu. In the eyes of Old Madam Gu, this girl who looks a little crazy definitely does what she says, and she really can't commit such a set of punishments with her mouth!

"Those stinky fish and rotten shrimp, if they escape, they will escape, but there is only one life, little girl, if I were you, I would never put the rest of my days on this! Your life has already been replenished, maybe you will toss on this, hiss, this is another half of your life! ”

Old Madam Gu spoke so loudly that she was like a madman who could say it.

However, before Xiang Yeqi could question what was suspicious in Old Madam Gu's words, Bo Zhaoxu grabbed Old Madam Gu's collar in anger, and almost lifted the chair together, as if he wanted to make Old Madam Gu regret what she said: "What nonsense did you just say? ”

"Do you believe it or not, what do you have to do with my mother-in-law? After all, this terrible thing was not born in me, and when the matter is verified, you will see for yourselves! ”

Old Madam Gu raised her head confidently, this made Xiang Yeqi indeed a little flustered, and she didn't know anything about the hidden illness of the original owner's body.

"Old Madam Gu, what do you want to say?"

She brushed off Bo Zhaoxu's bruised wrists, and looked at Old Madam Gu: "I have already given you the sincerity, otherwise, I can directly interrogate you strictly, and it shouldn't be difficult to ask something important from your mouth, right?" ”

Old Madam Gu can be regarded as a smart person, she is injured internally, and she may not even be able to defeat the night, let alone endure all kinds of torture.

Rather than being tortured and not human, it is better to give Xiang Yeqi a thorough explanation, and maybe he can get some chance of leniency.

"Little girl, come closer."

Old Madam Gu can be said to have put on a good show in front of Xiang Yeqi, and Xiang Yeqi took two steps forward according to her wishes, she actually coughed twice in an exaggerated manner, as if something was stuck in her throat, "If you really say this, it will be a long time, mother-in-law, I seem to have not drunk water for a while." Remember to loosen the tie, at least let people catch their breath, right? ”

"Go get water." Bo Zhaoxu ordered to go down the door.

"I saw it from the first time I saw you - that little girl from the Shangguan family was right."
