Chapter 120: Clues

Chongjin rested for more than half a month after resting from this injury. Elder Jiang still had no news, and the hall master was busy all day long, and there was still no clue.

In the end, it was the secret agent in the palace who sent a piece of information, saying that General Qu had transported a death row prisoner from the frontier to the capital some time ago, and the emperor ordered someone to be imprisoned in the prison. The identity of this death row prisoner is extremely mysterious, he has been wearing a black mask on the road, and his upper body has been covered by his head and face, and he can't tell whether it is a man or a woman.

The agent only wrote to him that he suspected that the death row prisoner was a woman, and that he looked like a woman by walking with a certain pace. However, the specifics are not very certain.

The prison is very tightly guarded, and their people have not yet penetrated it.

The agent asked the hall master what to do next, and the hall master couldn't make up his mind for a while. The landlord went out to do errands, and he has been gone for more than half a month, and this matter is very urgent, and he can't wait if he wants to get an idea. The anxious hall master turned around, so he had to go to Hall Master Liu, because he remembered that Feng Yinchen seemed to have said that if he couldn't find him in the matter of the Soul Tower in the future, he would find Hall Master Liu.

Hall Master Liu was discussing with the stewards of the Affairs Hall about the next expenses of the Soul Building, when he was called out by the Hall Master.

"There was a letter from the palace, saying that there was a person in the prison who looked like Elder Jiang, but he was not very sure, and he was probably only three or four percent sure. Do you think you should let them risk going to the prison to try, or should you stand by and wait for more accurate information and timing? The hall master wiped the sweat from his head.

Hall Master Liu pondered for a moment and replied: "It is not easy for the secret agents in the palace to be placed, if this matter is not completely certain, I think it is better not to act rashly, what do you mean?" ”

The hall master's hand wiping sweat paused for a moment, and then returned to normal: "If you want me to say the same thing, it's just ...... When the landlord left, he told him that he must rescue Elder Jiang as soon as possible, at any cost. If we don't take any action before the landlord comes back, I'm afraid that the landlord will be unhappy! ”

Hall Master Liu straightened his slightly bulging belly, and said to Hall Master with a smile: "Hall Master, I'm here for your sake. Come to think of it, this palace only recruits twice a year, and it's really hard for us to put people in. If there is no one to vouch for, I'm afraid not to say a year, even if it is ten years, we don't want to mix people in. It's not easy for us to put so many people in now, and you're not even 50% sure that you've lost the lives of a few people. So if it's a trap this time, who are you going to send to rescue you next time you're 100% sure? Do you think that's the reason? ”

The hall master smiled cheekily, and said a little helplessly: "You are right, Hall Master Liu." Then I'll take my leave. ”

I always felt that this Hall Master Liu was pit his own hall master, so he had to go to Chongjin again. After all, the landlord is also looking at her face in this matter, and the landlord is so concerned. If something really goes wrong, presumably the landlord won't blame him too much.

After listening to the words of the hall master, Chong Jin also had her own plan in her heart, she said: "The hall master doesn't have to be embarrassed, since the hall master Liu said to wait, then let's wait!" ”

The hall master was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect this Chongjin to be so easy to speak, and if someone asked you to wait, you waited...... The master of the hall made by the tutor is not a human inside and out.

The hall master was a little angry, in vain he was still busy with this matter, counting the nine cold winters, he was so busy that his head was sweating, but people still didn't appreciate it.

Chong Jin saw the psychological changes of the hall master, so he called out to him: "The hall master stays." ”

"Hall Master Yu, what's the matter?"

"Master Si, wait for me here, I'll come when I go." Chong Jin left the hall master in the lobby, and he went to the room to get a "Luo Shen Fu Tu" and handed it to the hall master.

Chong Jin said politely: "I have a "Luo Shen Fu Map" here, I don't know how to appreciate it, Master Sitang, you have always been knowledgeable, please appreciate this painting." ”

When the hall master heard the name of "Luo Shen Futu", his eyes lit up. Quickly opened the box where the painting was placed, carefully took out the scroll, and let it go on the table little by little, and the one who loved it almost dripped saliva on it.

"Good, good, good." The hall master said three good words in a row. Suddenly, he turned his head to look at Chongjin and asked, "Where did you get this picture from?" This is the real thing! It's worth a lot of money! ”

"This is a gift from a friend, I don't know how to read paintings, since the hall master likes it so much, then it is better to give this painting to the hall master." Chongjin didn't have any distressed look on his face, and Jiang Yue'er, who was peeking in the back hall, had blood in her heart.

The hall master looked at Chongjin with a look of disbelief: "Hall Master Yu is serious? Is this painting really going to be given away? ”

"That's natural, I, Yu Xiaoqi, have always been talking about words. The big husband has said it, and the horse is difficult to chase! ”

The hall master quickly rolled the scroll up carefully, and then gently put it back into the box. Looking at the hall master's loving appearance, it seems that he is caressing his wife.

"Since Hall Master Yu gave me such a big gift, there is nothing to reciprocate, if Hall Master Yu has a place for me in the future, I will definitely go to the soup." The hall master arched his hand, changing his previous attitude towards Chongjin's contempt.

He originally came this time to provoke the relationship between Hall Master Liu and Chongjin, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected gain.

Chong Jin's eyebrows were light, and he said politely: "The hall master is really polite, where is the need for the hall master to go to the soup and fire." However, at the moment, Elder Jiang's matter really has to trouble the hall master to bother you more. ”

"That's nature, that's nature, don't worry! You put a hundred hearts! I'm going to do my best! The hall master patted his chest and promised.

Chongjin sent away the hall master, Jiang Yue'er walked out of the back hall, and said with some distress: "Such a good baby, why did you give it to him at will!" ”

Chong Jin glanced at Jiang Yue'er, "If Feng Yinchen is here, there is no need to give it to him." This is not the absence of the landlord, the entire soul building is controlled by the master of the Liu hall. Didn't you hear it just now, Hall Master Liu meant to stop looking for your mother, if this matter is delayed, the chances of us rescuing your mother will be reduced a lot. If you can be a moment earlier, you must be a moment earlier. Money is inherently external to the body, so why care. ”

"Alright, alright! I know......" Jiang Yue'er pursed her mouth and said pitifully: "I used to think you were quite cold, why did you come back from a trip with the landlord, and you became so able to nag." ”

"I'm not here for you! Besides, if you like those calligraphy and paintings, why is it difficult to turn around and ask your dear landlord to give you ten or eight paintings? Chongjin said.

"Wow...... I didn't expect the landlord to be so rich! Not only rich but also powerful! Xiao Qi, you really caught a golden beetle son-in-law! "Jiang Yue'er is almost starry in her eyes, she has always worshiped the wind and dust.
