Chapter 174: Missing

"Lord Governor, a total of twenty-five men have disappeared in our three villages in the past year or so, all of them are young and middle-aged, they are the pillars of the family, they have disappeared without a trace, no one is alive or dead, no corpse is seen, the wives and children in the family are simply unable to live this day, and please ask the eldest master to be the master of the small people!"

Yuan Zhu said, kowtowing again.

Feng Hu and Li Er also kowtowed, and begged with a stumble in their mouths: "Please...... Please Lord Qingtian for ...... Call the shots for us! ”

"I didn't expect to hear someone call him Lord Qingtian!"

Jiang thought to himself, now the entire bank of the Furong River is very quiet, even the dragon boat team on the Furong River has not yet reached the end, it seems that in order to match the quietness on the shore, the rowing is more and more leisurely, not like a competition, but like a river swim, the competition has no spectators, and the players are also happy.

Because of this, the words of the Qingtian Lord became clearer and clearer, and Governor Hu was the highest rank in the official shed, so there was no need to think that this "Qingtian Lord" must be Governor Hu.

couldn't see the specific situation over there, Qu Wenshu was already anxious, and when she heard this again, she suddenly stood up, "Mother, I'll go down and take a look!" ”

said, without waiting for Jiang's consent, he was going down the stairs to watch the excitement outside.

"Sister Shu'er, there are people below, you are a girl's family, what kind of fun!"

Jiang immediately stopped.

"Mother, don't you want to know what's going on? Dad and cousin are in the official loft, you don't worry about them, I'm very worried. ”

Qu Wenshu said eloquently.

Jiang Shi was almost laughed at by her, why didn't she say that she was worried about her father and cousin when she was so excited to see the assassination scene just now, but now she used this as an excuse to watch the excitement.

"Mother, I'll go and see, I won't run around, I'll come back as soon as I see it......"

Qu Wenshu assured that the person had disappeared at the top of the stairs, leaving only half a sentence of the end note.

"This girl!" Jiang was in a hurry to stand up and chase after him.

Song Xiaochi handed Qu Xinghui to the child's nurse and said to Jiang: "Don't worry, madam, I'll go and see!"

Jiang wants to say, you are also a girl's family, and I don't worry about you yet.

Hearing Song Xiaochi, he immediately said again: "I'll let the lotus root and coral accompany me, and then order two guards to follow."

The Jiang family couldn't leave Mrs. Hu here alone, not to mention Qu Xinghui, so he agreed to Song Xiaochi's suggestion, and instructed the housekeeper's mother who came with her to let her go with her.

When Song Xiaochi chased down, he happened to see Qu Wenshu casually ordering two guards, "You, and you, go and watch the excitement with this girl!" ”

"Girl, Miss Qu is not too nonsense, and she knows that she has guards."

Lotus Root muttered quietly.

Song Xiaochi didn't answer, her heart is like Qu Wenshu, her father has real power, and she is more favored by her parents, she has been carefully taught to grow up since she was a child, even if she is a little willful, but she must know how to protect herself, and she will not put herself in danger of being unprotected.

"Sister Shu'er, I'll go with you." Song Xiaochi shouted Qu Wenshu.

Qu Wenshu beckoned: "Sister, come on, you are here, my mother will be relieved, otherwise she will be muttering behind my back for some reason, I just wanted to call you out together, but I was afraid that you would not want to come out to join in the fun, and I dare not force you."

In fact, there is another sentence that Qu Wenshu didn't say is that she was afraid that her white-faced and black-hearted second cousin would trouble her afterwards.

It's just that she didn't dare to say this to Song Xiaochi, for fear that it would inadvertently reach Xie Yan's ears, and she didn't know how to "retaliate" against herself at that time.

The water around the official shed has been surrounded by the lively people, but the people are also very knowledgeable, and they have a large enough circle, and they don't dare to squeeze in again, after all, although Governor Hu and the adults look very kind now, but after all, it is the official master, if they are angry, then the official authority and ordinary people can't bear it.

Qu Wenshu took the lead and began to squeeze in, she was dressed richly, and there were two guards next to her to protect her, and everyone gave way, so their group squeezed into the innermost part of the crowd of onlookers very smoothly.

"Lord Governor, the first to disappear is Wu Dayong from our village, Wu Dayong usually likes to drink a little wine, that day he went to catch the sea, until the evening did not go home, his family thought that he picked up valuable seafood, ran to the town to sell the money, and bought wine to sleep drunk, did not think much, but Wu Dayong did not go home all night.

The next day was still nowhere to be seen, his family and several neighbors went to the town to look for it, and then went to the beach to look for it, and after looking for a day and did not see anyone, and then looked for a few days and still did not see anyone, the people in the village said that he was washed away by the waves, and the person should be gone, although his family was sad, but they had to accept this statement, so they set up a mound for him. ”

When Song Xiaochi and the others squeezed in, Yuan Zhu was kneeling on the ground to report the details to Governor Hu, who should have asked Governor Hu first and Yuan Zhu answered.

This is brainless, Song Xiaochi and they don't know the previous situation, but Qu Wenshu doesn't care about the eldest lady's shelf, since she doesn't know, she asks the person next to her, and the person next to her tells them with a look of surprise.

"They are from three villages, saying that it has been more than a year, and a total of twenty-five young and middle-aged men have disappeared in their three villages, this is really a strange thing, why is a good big man so gone, if the little lady is gone, it is possible to be arrested by the mountain bandits and sea bandits to be the lady of the village, it is useless for this man to be arrested!"

"Who said men are useless!" Someone immediately retorted.

"Then what do you think those bandits are going to do if they arrest men?"

The two also argued.

"You can be a coolie, I heard that many coolies in the mine are caught, abducted and sold, and they can also be sold to rich and noble families as subordinates, which can do a lot of things, if you look good, you can ...... Hey hey ......"

In the end, the man laughed obscenely, some people understood the meaning of his unfinished words, and some people didn't, but just looking at his obscene appearance, they could guess that his later words were not good words.

Song Xiaochi was dedicated to two things, listening to the discussions of the people around him, while watching the live version of the governor's redress for the people.

Qu Wenshu was busier than her, she was simply watching six ways, listening to all directions, receiving news from different directions, tsk amazed, leaned into Song Xiaochi's ear and said: "I think someone in the back is right, the governor should ask those missing men if they look good, this is beautiful and ugly, but it affects the direction of the investigation."
