Chapter 21: The Governor's Wife

Mulberry Lin looked at the bell tower in the southeast of the city, and stepped on the eaves in three steps and two steps and rushed away. But this bell tower is as high as a five-story building, below is the solid foundation of the stone building, and above is a towering structure made of hardwood, on the top of the three-story wooden structure hangs a metal bell with a diameter of three meters, and at the top of the wall clock there is a small decorative top floor, Sang Lin is eyeing the space of this top floor.

After a few vertical steps, Sang Lin had already jumped to the top of the bell tower, and except for a tall building on the side of the city lord's mansion, this bell tower can be regarded as the tallest building in Fancheng, at this time Sang Lin stood on the top of the bell tower and found that this small room had no other shortcomings except for air leakage on all sides.

"This location is very good!" Jin Jin held the iron sculpture on the wall of the building at this time, and pointed down: "You see, that side is the City Lord's Mansion, and Fancheng is an old imperial city, so the power has always been held by the City Lord Huang family, and we can't send officials in." ”

"So I set up a demon ridge and the Huang family to check and balance~" Sang Lin also saw that the entire city lord's mansion was covered with white cloth and yellow paper at this time, and he didn't know how big a pomp the Huang family was, and how many days the old man would have to make trouble after he died.

"And over there is the famous Zhenbao Street in Fancheng. Jin Jin pointed in the other direction: "It is estimated that Grace will come to Fancheng at noon and go directly to Zhenbao Street to buy things." ”

"Jinjin, that convoy shouldn't be Glia's convoy!" And Sang Lin pointed directly at the west gate of Fancheng, at this time, if it was an ordinary person, it was estimated that he could only look at a rough idea, but these two people saw it very really.

But at this time, there was a large convoy at the west gate of Fancheng, about ten carriages, all of which were wearing green coats and soaps, wearing red and purple, and Sang Lin squinted his eyes and roughly estimated that there were about 100 people who drove the car, who sat in the car, and the guards who followed around the convoy. And seeing this group of soldiers, all of them have a light yellow armor and black gold axe, a fool can also deduce that they are people on the official face.

"Well, that's right, it's the outfit of the Jingtian City troops. And Bai Jinjin frowned slightly at this time: "Why did this guy bring so many people?"

"It's okay, let's occupy this powerful spot first, and we can see where they settle!" Sang Lin simply sat down and watched slowly.

On this side, Sang Lin and Bai Jinjin looked at the convoy of Jingtian City and went straight to the Huang family's City Lord's Mansion. And Sang Lin's nose sniffed, and he felt a very familiar smell.

"Jinjin, I smell a faint monster breath!" Sang Lin carefully identified: "It should be an acquaintance, but I don't know who it is!"

"Eighty percent of the guys from Li Sheng have woken up!" And Bai Jinjin was still staring at the direction of the City Lord's Mansion at this time: "Let's go, Sang Lin, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to find out the situation!"

"Okay~" Sang Lin turned over and jumped off the bell tower and blended in with Jinjin in the crowd.

saw Jinjin walking around in the crowd, and actually picked a woman's hair, and then after a few shakes, he changed into the appearance of that woman.

"Jinjin, what are you doing now?" Sang Lin was slightly puzzled.

"Sang Lin, when you get to the City Lord's Mansion in a while, don't say that you are a monster. "Jin Jin is walking at this time, while shopping on the street, and when he is about to walk to the door of the City Lord's Mansion, Jin Jin already has a lot of things in his hands.

"Hey, you two, what are you doing! The door is in mourning, outsiders get out!" Before the mulberry forest stepped into the door of the house with half a foot, the two guards at the door screamed and drove people away.

"I heard the bad news, and I came to mourn on the order of Lord Bai of Splendid City. And Bai Jinjin handed over a thick envelope at this moment, and also tied a white cloth to his arm.

"Oh, it turned out to be an official from Splendid City, let's go in!" the two guards counted the silver tickets in the envelope before putting them in.

Sang Lin took the white cloth handed by Bai Jinjin and tied it to his arm at this moment, but he became more and more suspicious in his heart, because first of all, Jinjin's business was really a little too skilled, and it seemed that he knew a lot about the Huang family in Fancheng. And the second one, as soon as he entered the door, Sang Lin had already noticed that there were only two monsters in Zhenzhen'er's City Lord's Mansion, he and Bai Jinjin, and the rest were all humans!

Sang Lin walked quietly next to Bai Jinjin, but the questions in his heart were constantly expanding, the people who came to mourn in this mansion were all rich or noble, and there were people with heads and faces in the north of the empire, such as the officials in Jingtian City, as well as several wealthy merchants in the upper area of Xicheng. And Sang Lin frowned slightly, because judging from the placement of the coffin, the news of the old man's death should have spread a long time ago, and now it is time for everyone to come to the funeral and give gifts, and then it is time to enter the earth for peace.

And it stands to reason that the old city lord of Fancheng died, and everyone was invited to come to the funeral, and they must have given news, but why did Sang Lin go all over the official face and demon face in Splendid City in the past few days, but he had never heard of this matter at all?

And Sang Lin looked at Bai Jinjin from the side, and he was very skilled in talking with the people of the Huang family and giving eulogies. A bad feeling rose in Sang Lin's heart.

Because the most reasonable explanation now is: Bai Jinjin knew the news from the beginning, and this time it was according to the excuse of mourning, but why did Bai Jinjin deliberately hide this matter from Sang Lin?

"Thank you for coming to see my old father off for the last time. And at this moment, a tall and heroic woman stood up and said, "The time for luncheon is almost coming, welcome everyone to dine." ”

"Mourn and mourn!" As soon as they heard that they were going to eat, the people in this courtyard all walked back noisily, and they also gave their condolences to the Huang family in accordance with etiquette.

As soon as the crowd became chaotic, Bai Jinjin immediately dragged Sanglin to the corner: "Sanglin, come quickly!"

Sang Lin had already had doubts and vigilance at this time, and naturally he was careful, but he saw that Bai Jinjin suddenly jumped into the corner and disappeared, and Sang Lin took a step forward, only to see that it was a secret door into the water.

Sang Lin went down the secret door of the water, only to find that the underground of the Huang family was built a very complete underground passage, Bai Jinjin seemed to be very familiar with the forward, and walked in the smooth passage of the stone wall for more than ten minutes before stopping.

"Alright, now it's time to speak. After Bai Jinjin pushed the sliding stone door tightly, he said: "Sanglin, the mourning will last for two or three days, let's go out separately to find out Glia's movements, and then choose a time to start!"

"Wait, don't be busy!" and Sang Lin raised his hand at this time: "You already knew about the Huang family's funeral, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Bai Jinjin was a little puzzled.

"Then why are you hiding it from me?" Sang Lin spread his hands: "How do I feel that you have been prepared for coming to the Huang family in advance, and you are too familiar with the tunnel, right?"

"Mullin, believe me, if I hadn't been forced to, I would never have returned to this place. And Bai Jinjin said with a gloomy expression: "I'm begging you, don't ask first, can you handle this matter of Glia first?"

"Of course I promised you that I would do it?" Sang Lin spread his hands: "I'll touch the specific situation of this tunnel first." ”

"Thank you!" Bai Jinjin said with some emotion, and then suddenly reminded: "The Huang family hates monsters more, so it's best not to leak your identity!"

"Don't worry!" Sang Lin waved his hand and walked out through another stone door.

In fact, this tunnel is only three or five meters away from the ground, and at this time, the Huang family is crowded with people, and the footsteps are chaotic, and Sang Lin suddenly heard a very special footstep, which is the sound of some precious metal hitting the ground, Sang Lin is happy in his heart, because when he looked out at the bell tower just now, Glia's convoy was all dressed in red and purple, so the eight achievements inlaid with heavy metal under the soles of the shoes were the governor's wife.

Sang Lin followed the footsteps underground, followed for seven or eight minutes, and the people above stopped, and Sang Lin saw that there was a dry well in front of him, so he was lucky and demonic, and quietly climbed up the dry well.

Sang Lin grasped the crack in the stone inside the dry well with one hand, and quietly showed his two eyes to look out, but he saw that in the pavilion not far away, a richly dressed lady was looking left and right, as if she was waiting for someone.

And Sang Lin slowly retracted his head again, and made a camouflage hat from the broken rattan in the dry well, so he was relieved to look at it again, and Sang Lin was now very sure that this lady was Glia. Because the sleeves of her big purple palace robe had the mark of Jingtian City on it, which was the same as the mark of their convoy.

And Sang Lin looked at Glia carefully at this time, but he also had to marvel at how beautiful and temperamental this woman was. From a rough point of view, this woman should be forty-four or five years old, but she is very well maintained, only the corners of her eyes have fine crow's feet, and her red eyes, willow eyebrows, and fair goose egg face set off flaming red lips. The big palace robe, the big palace flower, the head is upturned, and the hand is wearing gold beads, and there is a certain chill and a temperament that rejects people thousands of miles away, and now the anxiety of waiting seems to be able to tempt other unknown men to come forward and offer courtesy to help.

And at this moment, a little maid trotted all the way from the front house, holding a hosta in her hand. Sang Lin stared at the little maid, and always felt that the hosta in her hand was very familiar.

"How is it, did he agree?" asked Glia as soon as she saw the little maid.

"Congratulations, Madam, Childe is here. The little maid happily handed over the hosta: "Childe said that he was waiting for you in the Love Pavilion at midnight!"

"Great, great!" Graya snatched the hosta and held it tightly in her hand, trembling all over her body and the corners of her eyes moistened slightly.

And Sang Lin is even more of a question mark here, who is this lady going to see, she is actually excited like this, but whatever, the time and place are known, and it will be touched at night!
