Chapter 19: Gone

As soon as Chen Yu took Lu Shuping away with someone, the people from the Criminal Department turned back.

"You go and take a look again, I always feel that something is wrong, if you find ......" The person at the head frowned, and beckoned to the little brother on the side, and at the end of the words, his eyes made a gesture fiercely.

The little brother answered, covered his nose and trotted over, looked carefully for a long time, his eyes were round, and he turned around and shouted loudly: "Sixth brother, no, it's gone......"

The person at the head was the sixth man who had just served under the head of the jailer, he was holding a saber in one hand and twisting a stab in the other hand and picking his teeth, and he was stunned when he heard it: "What's missing?" ”

"Man, man is gone!"

The sixth couldn't hold it back, threw the things in his hand to the ground, pulled out the knife and said angrily: "It's only been a long time, why is it gone!" ”

The little brother trembled like a sieve: "I don't know, sixth brother, what should I do......

The sixth child looked at it for a long time, and the hand holding the knife kept trembling: "Find, look again!" If you really can't find it, tell the boss, it should be, it shouldn't be a big deal. ”

It is clear that he doesn't believe in this, but at this time, who is not afraid, there is no other way, so he can only believe it. Several minifigures carefully rummaged through the tip of the knife for several rounds, and they disturbed countless dead people in vain, but Lu Shuping was nowhere to be found.

The lights on the streets in the east of the city have not been extinguished, and the prince's mansion is still singing and dancing, Qin Heng and Chu Qiu have not been so harmonious for several months, glass after glass of wine, as if the trivial matters of the past few months have not happened, and others look like the real thing, and they can't distinguish the traces of the play.

A servant dressed up while the guests on the seat were drinking happily, hurried to the prince's side, and said in a low voice: "Master, something is wrong." ”

Qin Chong smiled at the flattering official below, and then turned his head to look at him: "What's the matter?" ”

Lord Lu ...... "The person who came paused slightly, and his face was timid." Lord Lu is dead. ”

Qin Chong's expression stiffened slightly, and he looked around before frowning and asking, "How did you die?" ”

The man did not hesitate: "Fear of sin and kill yourself." ”

Qin Chong quietly looked in Chu Qiu's direction, Chu Qiu looked at him and then at the person beside him, as if he had realized something, and nodded at him. So Qin Chong breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled the corners of his mouth to hook a little smile: "What's the matter, go down." ”

"But, but......" The man knelt on the ground, his body trembled, and his eyes did not dare to look at the person in the seat, and he trembled for a long time before he explained: "The corpse is gone." ”

Bang.

Qin Chong's fingers loosened, the gold bottle in his hand fell on the table, and the remaining wine spilled all over the table. Sensing Qin Heng's gaze on the side, he hurriedly pretended to be angry and scolded: "Dog slave, hairy, can do things!" ”

The man was also sensible, so he didn't care about it for the time being, bowed down and kowtowed to accompany him to play: "The master forgives the sins, the master forgives the sins......"

Qin Heng glanced at it twice, but he didn't care much about it as an ordinary minion, and turned his head to talk to Liang Jian, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Qin Chong clenched his fists slightly, made a decision, got up and arched his hand towards Qin Heng: "Father, the emperor just said that there is no life in the back, and the sons and daughters will go and take a look." ”

Qin Heng responded casually, and Xue Ji had been paying attention to the movements of the few people above, how could he not know that there was something strange in it, and immediately pulled Qin Sui's sleeve: "Lord, the prince is something." ”

Chu Qiu looked at it and probably understood that something was wrong, looked at Qin Chong's back uneasily, and then glared at Liang Jian fiercely, although Liang Jian didn't know what was going on, he also knew that it was not a trivial matter, it was obviously a late autumn night, but his clothes were soaked with cold sweat behind him.

"Guess what?"

Xue Ji looked at Chu Qiu, then at Liang Jian, and thought for a moment. "Criminal Department, isn't it...... Lu Shuping? ”

Qin Sui nodded after hearing this: "Good guess, Lu Shuping probably committed suicide in fear of sin." ”

Xue Ji couldn't help frowning, this also deliberately aggravated the four words of suicide in fear of crime, which was clearly ironic, it seemed that the prince couldn't help but keep his mouth shut...... "Then aren't we good enough to lose a bargaining chip?" ”

"Are you really going to be idle?" Qin Sui finally showed the first real smile of the night, and there was more tenderness in his eyes.

Xue Ji once again experienced King An's favor for Chen Yu, and the friendship between the two is by no means comparable to others. It is said that one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and it is enough to have Chen Yu under King An's door, where can others insert the needle? Thinking about it like this, it is even more melancholy, and it is difficult to rejoice for Chen Yu in my heart as before.

Qin Xu was not far away from them, and the two of them did not deliberately lower their voices when they spoke, so naturally others could hear it clearly if they had the heart. It's just that Xue Ji was a little surprised, when he looked up, he found that Qin Xu didn't look at Qin Sui, but looked at him and pondered.

On the other side, Qin Chong went out of the door and drilled into the corridor on the side, leaned on the lacquer railing and sat down with one leg raised, the word anger was clearly written on his face, and his tone was extremely unkind: "What's the matter, what does it mean that the corpse is missing?" ”

When the man heard this, Lisuo knelt down and kowtowed: "The master forgives the sin, and the subordinates don't know, it's from the Criminal Department, someone went to the prison of the Criminal Department, and then Lord Lu died, and the people from the Criminal Department wrapped him up and threw him to the mass grave, and turned his head to look...... Man, man is gone. ”

"What do you mean when you turn your head and see someone disappear?" Qin Chong was even more angry when he heard the explanation, put down his leg that was stepping on the railing, supported his knee with one hand, and stretched out his hand to pull the collar of the upper man and asked: "Can a dead man still run away and fly by himself!" ”

"Back to the master, just, the people from the Criminal Department left a few steps, and the sixth suddenly felt that something was wrong, and turned back to take a look, and the person was gone."

If it weren't for the fact that there were many guests in the house at this time, Qin Chong really wanted to roar, but he could only hold back his anger and lower his voice and gritted his teeth and asked: "Then let's go and find it!" ”

It's not that he doesn't have a number in his heart, but he would rather not be as good as he thinks, and if it is really what he thinks, it will be really bad. People can't disappear out of thin air, either they are carried away by people, or they are not dead. If it is the former, I am afraid that he will make a big fuss by killing people, and if it is the latter, I am afraid that he will take a bite of Lu Shuping...... If Lu Shuping knew that he thought so, it would not be enough to bite back, and he would just be chilled from beginning to end.

"I found it, but the criminal department said I didn't find it."

Qin Chong endured it again and again, and finally held his breath back into his abdomen, let go of his hand suddenly, and watched the person fall to the ground, before he said fiercely: "Go and tell Liang Jian what happened to him, let him understand!" If something happens, Lone may not have three longs and two shorts, but he, waiting to be the next Lu Shuping! ”

The man kowtowed repeatedly, and then looked at him with some fear: "That...... Your Majesty's side? ”

Qin Chong clenched his fists behind his back, stood up and moved two steps, as if he had made up his mind, turned around and looked at him coldly: "Just say that you will commit suicide in fear of sin, and let everyone bite to death and don't let go." ”

The moonlight hid in the clouds and became more and more gloomy, and a gust of faint autumn wind blew people cold, Qin Chong did not stay outside for too long, and turned around and returned to the hall after giving the order. When he returned to his seat, he looked up and saw that most of the guests were drunk, each with a red face and a dull look.

Qin Heng didn't ask him where he went or what he did, he just put down the cup, beckoned to him, and asked with a smile: "It's not early, Chong'er can have fun today?" ”

"Fun, nature is fun." The answer was perfunctory, Qin Chong secretly pretended to be something, where did he have the heart to greet the guests again, and as soon as he heard his father's question, he immediately went down the slope: "Since it's not early, you guys are also dispersed, don't let your father catch up with the palace gate and lock it." ”

The night's farce finally came to an end, and the front of the Prince's Mansion was once again crowded with carriages and horses. Although Chu Qiu was worried about things, he didn't dare to stay for a long time under Qin Heng's gaze, so he had no choice but to gesture to Qin Chong, and then got in the car and went back to the house.

Qin Sui just drank the wine and took away his outer robe, and now as soon as he came out of the courtyard, the cold wind came, and he suddenly sobered up a lot. Xue Ji saw that his lips were white, and knew that it was a cold late autumn night, so he hurriedly put on a coat for him.

At this time, an inconspicuous little guy squinted in the crowd for a long time, and finally found the two of them, and came over through the crowd with a hunched body: "Lord Wang, Lord Chen said that there is a harvest tonight, and I am waiting for you in the other garden." ”

Qin Sui was not surprised, and turned his head to smile at Xue Ji: "Look, what did I say?" After saying that, he waved his hand to the coachman, and pointed to the south: "Go to the other garden!" ”

Xue Ji felt bitter in his heart, it was more than half of the time, and he still wanted to go back home earlier to leave some time to study and accompany his wife...... Now it's okay, I have to work with him.

When the carriage stopped again, the curtain was lifted to see, the word 'Chongqing' hung on the door, and the strength of the product was not shallow, and the pen was clean and neat, which must have come from the handwriting of a famous artist. Different from the resplendor of the Prince's Mansion, it is unique and elegant.

This is the first time Xue Ji has been to Chen Yu's mansion, and he has heard how Brother Ziliang has a family of money at a young age, and he can guess that his mansion will not be shabby, and it is another thing to really see it.

I have to say that Xue Ji has seen a lot of 'firsts' today.

"The prince is here, please come in."

As soon as the two got out of the car, they just walked a few steps, and the housekeeper greeted them with a smile, leaned over and stretched out his hand to point to the door, leading people in.

Walking a few steps in the moonlight, Xue Ji suddenly felt that something was wrong, what was going on with not leading to the main hall, but going to a remote place along the path? Turning his head and quietly looking at Qin Sui, he found that he was also frowning.

Qin Sui paused and stopped the housekeeper: "Where is this going?" ”

The housekeeper glanced back, lowered his head and replied, "This thing is a little special, my lord is waiting for the prince in the cellar." ”

Xue Ji was stunned, what is so special, and you have to see you in the cellar? It can't be Brother Ziliang who robbed Lu Shuping, right?

He didn't allow him to think too much, the cellar of Chen Yu's mansion was hidden in a rockery, he followed the housekeeper into the rockery, and saw the housekeeper groping on the rock wall for a while, with a muffled sound, there was a gap in the ground, the housekeeper squatted on the ground and buckled the gap to open the door, revealing a ladder inside.

The housekeeper was guarding above, and Xue Ji accompanied Qin Sui down, stepping on the end, and looking back to see the person illuminated by the dim light.
