Chapter Fifty-Three: Tricked

In this operation, the first and most critical step lies in Lou Yuzhi, if he can succeed, the rest can continue, if he fails, then he has to find another way.

"Daddy."

Lou Wancheng just came back, and was about to go to the study when he was stopped by Lou Yuzhi, he stopped and responded: "Alas, give it, something?" ”

"Daddy, don't you remember what day it is?"

"Today is naturally Chinese New Year's Eve."

"So we should have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, right?"

"You eat first, and I'll reconcile today's accounts first."

"Dad, there is a reason for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to be eaten by one person."

"But I'm ......"

"The accounts can be correct at any time, but the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is only once a year, and our father and son don't have much time to eat together all year round, so we can't even eat separately tonight, right?"

Lou Wancheng was a little hesitant, and Lou Yuzhi made persistent efforts: "My mother is gone, I will only have you as a family member, if you don't want to take time, then this year will make no difference." ”

Every time he talks about his mother's affairs, Lou Wancheng will compromise on ordinary trivial matters, mainly because Lou Wancheng himself feels a little guilty about losing his mother's mother in the first place.

"Okay, let's have a meal together, I'm really hungry when you say that."

"I put the meals in my yard."

"Huh? Why in your yard? ”

"Because I cook it myself, I specially made a few dishes that you love to eat."

Lou Yuzhi used to cook some dishes occasionally, so Lou Wancheng was not very surprised, the most important point is that Lou Yuzhi's cooking skills are really good, so it can be regarded as a kind of mouthful.

It's a pity that they are usually too busy, so they don't have much chance to sit down and have a good meal.

"Then I'm going to eat a little more, alas, my son is just good, he can do everything easily, let's have a good talk tonight."

Lou Wancheng and Lou Yuzhi walked towards the courtyard where Lou Yuzhi lived, because it was Chinese New Year's Eve, so the maids and family members who were close to them all went back to reunite, and some who were far away or had no family stayed in the mansion.

However, there are no fewer guards, there are patrolling guards everywhere in the building, Lou Wancheng is followed by a few bodyguards, and Lou Wancheng asks them to wait at the door of Lou Yuzhi's courtyard.

About half an hour (one hour) later, the bodyguards saw Lou Yuzhi helping Lou Wancheng out, and the oncoming smell of alcohol seemed to be not light.

"Young master, let the subordinates help the master back to the room to rest, right?"

"No need, I'll help my dad over, and you will follow."

"Yes."

Lou Yuzhi helped Lou Wancheng to walk in front, several bodyguards followed behind, although Lou Wancheng staggered a little, but he didn't seem to be completely drunk, and he knew that he was walking.

When he arrived at the door of Lou Wancheng's room, the guard guarding the door hurriedly opened the door, Lou Yuzhi helped Lou Wancheng in, then put it on the bed, bent down to take off his shoes and cover the quilt for him, and then turned around.

"The candles in the room don't need to be extinguished, my father is happy tonight, and he drank a little more, but you know that he is not good at drinking, so if you hear him lose his temper in it later, don't go in and provoke him."

"Yes, young master."

Lou Wancheng used to love to drink, but because he liked to smash things every time he was drunk, and he put a lot of valuables in his room, so he was always distressed after waking up, and over time he quit drinking, only occasionally drinking a little when he needed to socialize, and rarely let himself get drunk.

Lou Yuzhi closed the door and left, the bodyguards were in the courtyard, the guards were guarding the door, and there were a few masters hiding around.

After the surroundings returned to quiet, Lou Wancheng, who was lying on the bed, sat up, lifted the quilt and put on his shoes, got up and looked around the room, and couldn't help but be startled when he accidentally saw himself in the mirror, and then took a closer look at the beard that seemed to be crooked, and hurriedly pasted it with his hand.

That's right, he is not really Lou Wancheng, but Huo Jiulin pretending, fortunately, it is winter, wearing a few more big cotton jackets, he looks a lot fatter, if it is summer, the difference in size between the two is too big, it will be difficult to do.

Although it is likely that the key is in the room, the room is so big, where do you start? Huo Jiulin walked to the antique shelf and looked at it, none of the antiques moved, and he didn't find the hidden grid or anything like that.

There were masters all around, so they must have heard him walking around the house, and in order to avoid arousing suspicion, he took a vase and threw it on the ground with a very loud bang.

The guards outside were a little helpless, the old man really dropped things every time he was drunk, and he didn't know how distressed he would be when he got up tomorrow.

After Huo Jiulin fell a few more, he went back to the bed to look for it, and he didn't let go of the wardrobe or the like, but he didn't find anything, and then turned his gaze back to the desk, there was a painting hanging on the wall behind the desk, painting a woman, and the pen was Lou Yuzhi, so it must be Mrs. Lou.

couldn't help but slander in his heart, it seems that this Lou Wancheng doesn't seem to be so affectionate, at least he is willing to hang Mrs. Lou's words in the room and watch them every day.

He walked to the side of the painting, lifted it and took a closer look at the wall, knocked it with his hand, and seemed nothing unusual, and sat down on the chair with some helplessness.

"It's hot!"

complained in a low voice, because the clothes he usually wears are not very thick, this time in order to pretend to be fat Lou Wancheng, I don't know how many layers he wears, and now he is sweating when he moves.

Sitting on the chair, leaning on the desk with both hands, he crossed his legs and carefully observed the room, although this room is large, there are few places to hide things, and I haven't searched for it, isn't it hidden in the room?

He had to admire Lou Wancheng, just a key, he was hiding so mysteriously, and he was about to get up and look for it again, but suddenly felt that his knee seemed to have touched something, and he bent down and looked at it with some confusion, it was too dark to see anything.

He took down the candle on the table, and found that there seemed to be a bulge under the desk, and he touched it with his hand, like a small drawer, and opened it to reveal a string of golden keys, exactly seven.

"It's here."

Huo Jiulin muttered, a little happy, took out the key and put it in his arms, and Helian Wuye, who was squatting on the top of the big tree outside the courtyard, looked carefully at the direction of the room.

Just as they were worried about why there was no news, they suddenly saw a shadow reflected in the closed window, and the shadow's hand was raised three times, and they were a little happy to gesture in the direction of the dwarf tree not far away.

After receiving the instructions, Shen Yiqing, who was behind the dwarf tree, took advantage of the fact that the guards had not yet patrolled, and flashed back to the courtyard of Lou Yuzhi.

"Young Master Lou, everything is ready."

"Okay, I'll go over now, Ah Xu, bring the decanting soup."

"Yes, young master."

Ah Xu has been by Lou Yuzhi's side since he was a child, so he is considered Lou Yuzhi's cronies, and naturally he also knows about this plan, and Lou Yuzhi took him back to Lou Wancheng's room.

"How's my dad?"

"The master just dropped something, and now it seems to be quiet."

"I've prepared some decanting soup and brought it in for him."

As soon as the guard was about to open the door, the door opened by itself, and Huo Jiulin, who was pretending to be Lou Wancheng, leaned against the door and looked at Lou Yuzhi with drunken eyes.

"Why are you up?"

"Stuffy."

Although Huo Jiulin tried his best to learn Lou Wancheng's voice, there were some differences after all, but fortunately, he was drunk now, so he didn't have to speak very clearly, and it was okay to say a few words simply.

"Let's have a bowl of decanting soup first, right?"

Huo Jiulin took the bowl and drank it in one go, and Lou Yuzhi continued: "Why don't I accompany you to the garden and disperse the wine?" ”

"It's fine."

As soon as Lou Yuzhi and Huo Jiulin left the courtyard, the bodyguards behind them hurriedly followed, Huo Jiulin was a little speechless, even at home, he still followed so many bodyguards, why did Lou Wancheng have to hold the treasure map with such a death-fearing character? Is money really so important to him?

The two of them walked around, and then they arrived at Lou Yuzhi's courtyard, those bodyguards were still guarding outside, Huo Jiulin hurriedly took off a few cotton jackets outside after entering the house, and Shen Yiqing stepped forward to take off the mask on his face for him.

"Got the key?"

"Do you see if it's this?"

Lou Yuzhi took the set of keys and nodded, "It's true, it's just a key on each floor, do you want to act now?" ”

"If it drags on for a long time, I'm afraid that something will happen, so it's better to solve it as soon as possible."

"Then you must be careful."

"Don't worry."

After Huo Jiulin finished speaking, he changed into the night clothes prepared in advance, and then he and Shen Yiqing and Helian Wuye were about to leave from behind, but they found that there seemed to be some wrong movements around them.

"Shhhhh

Shen Yiqing also listened carefully, "There are people, or masters." ”

Lou Yuzhi didn't understand what they meant, Huo Jiulin's face was a little ugly, and he walked to the door and opened the door, only to see that there were many guards in the courtyard, and there was a row of archers behind him.

"Hit the mark!"

"How so... My dad is obviously ......"

turned around and found that Lou Wancheng, who was still lying on the soft collapse just now, had already stood up, and the window behind him was broken and several bodyguards stood behind Lou Wancheng, Lou Yuzhi was a little surprised, "Dad, you already knew?" ”

Lou Wancheng's eyes were a little grim, and he said coldly: "Yuzhi, you are my son, but you actually joined forces with outsiders to deal with me?" ”

"My son doesn't want to deal with you, he wants you to take out those things that you shouldn't want, the paper can't hold the fire, now the rivers and lakes are so chaotic, sooner or later they will be discovered, don't talk about you at that time, even everyone in the entire building will die."

"Bastard, don't talk about these high-sounding excuses, you just want me to die, and then take all the family property!"

Lou Yuzhi was a little cold, "Dad, am I such a person in your heart?" When did I care about the property in the building? ”

"Ever since you know that I have that kind of thing, you've always been trying to let me take it out, I thought you were really thinking about the mansion, but now I know, it turns out that you just want to swallow it yourself, give it, you look down on your father too much, do you think you can deal with the guards of the entire mansion if you find these people?"

"Lou Wancheng, are you still a father?"

Huo Jiulin said with some disdain, and the expression on Lou Wancheng's face seemed to be a little sad, "Come on, take them all!" ”

"Master, including the young master?"

"Including!"
