Chapter XXIV: Revenge

Before night fell, Xie Yikou ran to Qingzi Lane with several catchers. Sure enough, outside the good hall, I saw Wu Beifa and a few people screaming with their throats. Those people had all eaten the board, and when they saw the catch, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, holding their heads and scurrying around, eager to grow scuds.

Xie Yikou sneered, and greeted a certain Xia Qingshan brother who came to open the door in the Shan Hall. That person's eyes lit up when he saw Xie Yikou, but it was not a good time to talk when he saw the surroundings, so he could only regret it.

After a while, Xie Yikou led the dejected "mouse" back to the yamen to resume his life.

On the other side, Zeng Fuzi acted quickly, and immediately went to the Fang Mansion after Wen Zhesang and the others left. On the way back to the Yamen, Xie Yikou happened to meet Mr. Zeng who was returning to Taoli Academy, and the two talked a few words, and each had a bottom in his heart.

Wu Beifa and his group were all "second to the palace", and they were wilting along the way, but they didn't see anyone begging for mercy.

Jiang Weixi saw them arrive at the yamen, and approached Xie Yikou and said, "Do you want to squat in prison and eat white food?" ”

A few people squatted in the corner and didn't say anything, Jiang Weixi didn't have to listen to them, he pretended to sigh and said, "Poor, eat more white food while you can still eat a few days, you won't have a chance in the future." ”

In the future, if you go to build a school, as long as you make a contribution, you won't eat white food.

Wu Beifa and the others trembled when they heard it, thinking that they had gone too far and annoyed the county order. When the county order is angry, he will take their rotten lives!

Suddenly, they were as quiet as chickens, and they didn't dare to come out with their necks shrunk. They all want to wait for Wen Zhesang to show up, no matter how they say it, they can call two grievances, right? However, Wen Zhesang didn't care about these people at all, and when they were imprisoned, they didn't even see Wen Zhesang's shadow.

On the other hand, not to mention how Master Zeng said about Master Fang, on the second day, the students of Taoli Academy had one more knowledgeable master.

The burden on Zengfuzi's shoulders was shared, and it was rare to have leisure. I was in a good mood, and I felt that my body had become extremely relaxed.

Some former masters in the county were also ready to move when they got the news, but most of them were afraid of Master Wei and didn't dare to express their position. The Taoli School continues to operate in a strange balance of all parties.

In just one day's work, the wealthy households in the county really knew that Wen Zhesang wanted to support private households. They panicked for a while at first, and then under the assurance of Master Shang that he would not let Wen Zhisang get his wish, the panic was like a ripple on the surface of a lake, and it disappeared in a flash.

However, when the pebbles are thrown into the lake, they will gradually fall into the mud, sink deeper and deeper, and eventually they will not be able to escape.

Since Shang Nanjue saw Qiu He's "soul" that night, for half a month, Qiu He's things would always appear outside his window and by the door. Those dead things were not terrible, but when they were stained with blood, and the blood was mixed with the stench and hidden in the night, everyone who saw them screamed in horror.

Shang Nanjue had nightmares for seven or eight days in a row after being frightened that day, and in the middle of the night, someone always found something bloody, and he was angry almost every day, causing the people who served him to be uneasy.

No matter how warm the spring breeze is, it can't blow away the gloom here.

When Shang Nanjue finally regained his spirits and was about to show his strength and find out the bastard who threw autumn lotus things everywhere, he couldn't find anything, and the world seemed to evaporate.

"Big brother, I said that you are just timid, and I haven't seen any suspicious people after looking for so many days, I'm afraid I heard the news that you have recovered, and I ran away early."

Shang Nancheng didn't say it, but when he said it, Shang Nanjue was even more annoyed. Could he not have known this? It's a pity that he lingered on the sickbed a few days ago, and his father was busy discussing with Uncle Zheng and them, so he didn't see him a few times at all. And his younger brother is a gentleman, and he doesn't care at all. In the end, by the time he recupers his spirits, the thing that did the bastard thing will be gone for a long time!

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, he was the only one who played people around, and no one had ever had the courage to hit him with an idea.

Shang Nancheng looked at his face blue for a while and white for a while, and his cheeks bulged, this is biting his back molars! He touched his neck uncomfortably, "Big brother, how do you say that he, that person, know when you are sick and when you are well?" And where did he get Qiuhe's stuff - wasn't it long overdue? ”

"Most of them were done by the people in the house." Shang Nanjue's eyes were fierce, and at this time, the two brothers were talking, and there were no servants around. "Day and night, it is difficult to prevent thieves. Hmph, as long as he's still in the house, I'm going to get him out. ”

No matter what the purpose of that person is or what his relationship with Qiu He is, once he is caught......

Shang Nanjue, who has been smooth sailing since he was a child, felt depressed for a while when he thought that he had actually planted a heel in such a strange and chaotic thing, and he didn't even know who the person who caused the chaos was. Under the great anger, he didn't even have the calmness that he was proud of on a daily basis.

"But big brother, didn't you say that you did see Qiu He that day? She...... It's been buried a long time ago. Shang Nancheng hesitated for a while, unable to control his curiosity, "If you are drunk and misguided, it will be forgotten, but after that day, you will have things used by Qiuhe in this yard every day, is it possible...... Qiuhe, she's back, back? ”

As soon as I thought of Qiu He's mutilated body that had been eaten by the fish, he crawled out of the ground and found Shangfu all the way back...... Shang Nancheng suddenly felt a chill on his body. "Big brother......" he trembled, looking scared.

The hand serving the tea trembled slightly, and his trembling appearance provoked Shang Nanjue's angry scolding: "Zi is silent and confused!" Use your brain to think about it, if there really is some evil spirit asking for my life, I can still stand here? It must be some bastard thing, in order to harm me, pretending to be Qiuhe for me to see. Then I lost some broken things that I found out of nowhere! ”

Shang Nancheng took a breath of cool air and wondered. There are too many people in the house, and he can't know everyone. Even Qiu He paid a little more attention to it when she knew that she had a little relationship with her eldest brother.

If you want to talk about who is most likely to help Qiu He trick his eldest brother, it must be Qiu He's friend.

"Big brother, have you checked the people around Qiuhe? I think that person must know Qiu He, maybe he is still very familiar, otherwise, how dare he go against the eldest brother? And ah......"

It's rare to be smart, Shang Nancheng wow,

"Okay, I've thought of what you said earlier. Anyone who gets closer to Qiuhe will be investigated, that is, the results will be known in a few days. ”

Shang Nanjue is suspicious and ruthless enough, the first thing to deal with is the people around him, but anyone who has doubts on his body is transferred by him, or simply disposed of. But even so, strange things are still happening, and besides, Qiu He, she is a subordinate, not many people will pay attention to her on weekdays, and it is actually a little difficult to find out who is good friends with her.

But Shangfu is so big, as long as you spend a little more time, there is nothing that you can't find out.

Shang Nancheng shrugged and was noncommittal, "Of course it would be best if you could find out." In the past few days when my eldest brother was recuperating, I was told by my father that I had to discuss with Uncle Zheng and them today, and I had to go to the shop tomorrow to check the accounts...... I didn't have a free day all day. Fortunately, the eldest brother has recovered, otherwise I would have slipped out to find Zheng Yu's kid to eat wine. ”

He knows that he is really a gentleman, and he has a big brother above him, even if he once had the idea of not admitting defeat and wanting to compete, now it is completely gone. Eat, drink, and have fun, fight cocks and horses, how comfortable is life?

Shang Nanjue became more and more dissatisfied when he saw his appearance, and opened his mouth to reprimand: "Bastard boy, he has no ambitions. If there is an accident at home in the future, can I still count on you? ”

Shang Nancheng sneered, took a sip of slightly cold and astringent tea, pouted, and said, "What can happen at home?" It's a big thing, with my father and eldest brother here, how can I worry about it? That's it, I haven't been with some friends in a few days, so I'm not coming back today. ”

He stood up and waved his hand crookedly as a goodbye. Shang Nanjue rolled his eyes in anger, but he also knew what kind of character his younger brother was. Qingfeng County's first-class gentleman, if something really happens, I really can't count on him!

After sitting for a while, Shang Nanjue called the maid to come in and serve. There are far fewer people left by his side now, but these people have been thoroughly investigated, so he can rest assured.

The maid came in with a change of hot tea, and the fresh aroma of tea diluted a little dull atmosphere. Shang Nanjue drank tea before he left Shang Nancheng's matter behind a little and asked, "Lu Zhi hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Back to the eldest young master, not yet."

The tea cup fell with a "bang", spilling a few drops of water on Shang Nanjue's hand, he frowned and looked unkind, "It's been four days, since I can't find out anything, what use do I want him to do?" ”

The maid didn't dare to answer, and even lowered her breathing, for fear that his anger would affect the pond fish.

At this time, the maid at the door of the room came in lightly and said, "Young Master, the medicine for the evening has been delivered." ”

Although Shang Nanjue recovered from his illness, because he was frightened, the doctor prescribed a few more days of calming medicine. "Send it in." He said.

The maid who delivered the medicine lowered her head and only looked at the ground on her toes, looking very timid.

The medicine was delivered to me, and it was still steaming.

The maid gave the medicine and retreated without saying a word, but when she crossed the threshold, her lowered gaze seemed to glance at Shang Nanjue intentionally or unintentionally.

I didn't expect him to heal so quickly, which is a pity. Sister Qiuhe's suffering, he hasn't tasted one-tenth of it.

It turned out that the maid who delivered the medicine was Cui Ling. After separating from Qiuhe that day, she had thoughts of revenge. So she turned out the clothes that Qiu He had left behind with her and had forgotten to take them back, and then went to the back kitchen to steal some chicken blood and stain it, and secretly threw it out of Shang Nanjue's window.

Although the clothes were not discovered by Shang Nanjue, the effect was almost the same. Then she made some specious things, all of which looked bloody - normal people would only be afraid when they saw those things, where would they find out if it was Qiu He?

For half a month, Shang Nanjue was upset.

Cui Ling hummed the folk song of her hometown in her heart, thinking that she had heard that someone was investigating someone who was good friends with Qiu He in the past few days, and she couldn't do such a thing anymore.

What a pity.

She lowered the corners of her upturned mouth, her steps becoming brisk, but as she turned the corner, a jet black streaked across her eyes.
