Chapter 347: Return to the Northwest Mansion

The powerful Chen Yu does things his own way, which is the so-called willfulness.

Isn't it a bully for a humble man to dare to ask him for money?

He has a lot of gold and silver, and when he is in a good mood, he may give it away with money.

To give or not to give, to whom to give and not to whom, it all depends on his mood.

The purpose of cultivation, in addition to immortality, is to do whatever you want.

Leaving Cao's Mansion without saying a word, Chen Yu rested for one night, and the next morning, he took two maids and five foreign girls to buy some special products unique to the capital, and then rode a war horse from the west gate of the capital.

As night fell, Cao's study room.

"My lord, the Marquis of the Northwest has already left the capital." Cao Bao said.

"Chen Feng is the protégé of this official, it stands to reason that even if he wants to leave the capital, he should come to meet this official, after seeing His Majesty, why didn't he come to this official?" Cao Yunsong said suspiciously.

"My lord, I just heard Cao Zhengxing say that the prefect of the Northwest Prefecture wants to come in to meet you today...... Cao Hu said in a low voice.

"Damn it, Chen Feng is not only the prefect of the Northwest Mansion, but also the Marquis of the Northwest canonized by His Majesty, this official has waited for so long, I didn't expect him to be angry with one of his officials." Cao Yunsong said angrily.

"My lord, what to do with Cao Zhengxing?" Cao Bao asked.

"The stick hit the Cao Mansion, and the official never wanted to see him again." Cao Yunsong said.

"Yes, sir." Cao Bao nodded in response.

"By the way, if someone asks to see the official in the future, no matter what official rank the other party is, whoever is standing guard outside the door, if anyone asks for silver, all of them will be fucked off by the official." Cao Yunsong said.

"Yes, sir." Cao Hu and Cao Bao replied loudly.

The Great Xia Palace, in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of the Northwest has left." Xu Fu said with a smile.

"Who did he go to see before he left?" Zhou Ming said.

"Originally, the Marquis of the Northwest wanted to meet Lord Cao, the secretary of the ministry...... As a result, the Northwest Hou turned around and left. Xu Fu said with a smile, as the commander of the Eagle Guard, he knew everything about what was happening in the capital.

"Northwest Hou is Cao Yunsong's protégé, he went to see the other party, just out of courtesy, just a disciple, he actually asked him for silver, he didn't get mad on the spot, it was enough restraint." Zhou Ming said with a smile.

"Yes, who knows that the two maids and five foreign girls around the Northwest Hou are all peerless masters at the innate level, if Lord Cao knew the true strength of the Northwest Hou, would he be so angry that he vomited blood." Xu Fu said with a smile.

"It seems that the Northwest Marquis does not have the intention of forming a gang in the court." Zhou Ming said thoughtfully.

"The Northwest Hou cares about the people, and on the surface he is in the same vein as the Prime Minister of Zuo, but in fact he is not." Xu Fu said.

"Send the Eagle Guard to keep an eye on the Northwest Mansion, and I want to know the situation over there at all times." Zhou Ming said.

"Wechen obeys." Xu Fu nodded in response.

Right Prime Minister's Mansion, in the study.

"Your Excellency, the Northwest Marquis has finished meeting Your Majesty....... He turned and walked away. Bai Yunhe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said with a smile.

"I wonder if Liu Shouyi will be so angry that he vomits blood?" Right Prime Minister Dai Rende said with a smile.

"The Northwest Province is rich in mineral resources, and has always been rich in salt and iron, and Prime Minister Zuo has suffered a lot of losses." Bai Yunhe said.

"Zhang Qingchun was arrested by Dali Temple, and our losses are also very large." Hubu Shangshu Qi Nanshan said.

"Those who can't get their true appearance, Liu Shouyi can't even think of it." Dai Rende said.

"I wonder what the Prime Minister thinks?" Qi Nanshan asked.

"Inform the people of the Northwest Province and fully support the Northwest Hou." Dai Rende said.

"In this way, Prime Minister Zuo must suspect that the Northwest Marquis is of the same mind as us." Qi Nanshan said.

"After a long time, the Northwest Marquis and Prime Minister Zuo will definitely deviate from morality, and even turn against each other." Bai Yunhe said.

"The original appearance is to make Liu Shouyi like a fish in the throat, the more uncomfortable he is, the happier the appearance." Dai Rende said with a smile.

"Prime Minister, what is our business in the Northwest Mansion?" Qi Nanshan asked.

"Illegal business, stop it all for the time being." Dai Rende said.

On the official road, Chen Yu rode his horse and galloped wildly, followed by jade and snow and five foreign girls.

Ten war horses were charged, and their speed was as fast as the wind, and in less than five days, they passed through the northern province and reached the territory of the northwest province.

After entering the Northwest Mansion, Chen Yu slowed down and inspected the people's conditions while touring the mountains and rivers.

On this morning, in Erqiao County, Huangzhou, they met several catchers and a soldier to investigate the scene.

"Sir?" Zhang Ruyu asked in a low voice.

"Let's see what happens." Chen Yu said.

Several arresters gathered around the body of a young man, looking carefully at it.

"Brother Zhang, can you see the cause of death?" Headcatcher Wei Wu asked.

"The deceased was unsuspecting and was stabbed through the heart by the murderer from the front." Zhang Yuancheng said.

"You two go and investigate the Tuesday Bridge, if there are any enemies, you two go to the Xu Clan's pawn shop......" Wei Wu said.

"Wei Zhutou, the owner of the Xu family's pawn shop, is the younger brother of the county magistrate." Huang Qiang reminded.

"We are arresting quickly, just investigating the case, and other things have nothing to do with us." Wei Wu said.

"Aniana, you five go to the government first." Chen Yu said in a low voice.

"Yes, sir." The five foreign girls nodded and stepped down on a war horse......

When he came to Erqiao County, he found an inn to live in, let Ruyu Ruxue stay in the inn, and Chen Yu walked out alone.

After a while, he came to the outside of Xu's pawn shop, glanced inside, and found a place to sit in the restaurant opposite.

It didn't take long for Huang Qiang and another catcher to walk into Xu's pawn shop.

"Two officials, what is the matter with you?" Xu Jiang, the pawnshop shopkeeper, asked with a smile.

"Shopkeeper Xu, has Tuesday Bridge been here today?" Huang Qiang asked.

"Tuesday bridge, which Tuesday bridge?" Xu Jiang asked pretending to be puzzled.

"The owner of this pawn note." Huang Qiang took out a bill.

"Oh, you're talking about him, this morning, he did take a piece of jade and pawn it with us." Xu Jiang said.

"Shopkeeper Xu, when the bridge left on Tuesday, were there any people who behaved strangely?" Huang Qiang asked.

"Official, you also know that the business of our pawnshop is very good, and as the shopkeeper of the pawnshop, I have been busy with business, how can I have time to pay attention to other things?" Xu Jiang said.

"Someone killed on Tuesday Bridge." Huang Qiang said.

"What? He was killed? Xu Jiang exclaimed.

"Pretend, continue to pretend, something worth a thousand taels of silver, only give one hundred taels to others, and send someone to kill others, how can such a despicable pawnshop appear in the territory of this official?" Chen Yu said secretly in his heart.

Unable to get useful information, Huang Qiang and another catcher reluctantly left Xu's pawnshop.

Chen Yu didn't do it immediately, and while eating wine and food, he used his divine sense to peep at several arresters to quickly investigate the case.

"Wei Zhutou, I found a witness." Zhang Bo said.

"Where are the people?" Wei Wu asked.

"It's right outside." Zhang Bo said.

"Bring him in." Wei Wu said.

"I've seen a few officials." A young man dressed as a scholar clenched his fists and arched his hands.

"Who are you?" Wei Wu asked.

"Xiaosheng Xu Feiyang." The boy said.

"Can you see who killed Zhang Erqiao?" Wei Wu asked.

"The murderer is a guy from the Xu pawnshop." Xu Feiyang said.

"How do you know?" Wei Wu asked again.

"Xiaosheng pawned a piece of jade pendant in Xu's pawnshop yesterday, and saw the guy, and when I was on the road today, I saw the guy killing people from a distance." Xu Feiyang said.
