Xiaobao whispered to Jiao'er: "Jiao'er, do you guess the city lord asked us to come here, why did you ask us to come here?"
Jiao'er frowned lightly, bit her lower lip and whispered: "Last night, Gongzi appeared in front of Zhou Shanren, and today he told the city lord where we lived, indicating that he has become suspicious of our relationship with Yue'er. (hua. marshmallow.)
The prince of Zhenjiang lost the treasure and leaked the news, he will be severely punished by Emperor Yin, and Yin Leopard will atone for his sins and avoid the punishment of Emperor Yin, he will make a desperate bet to find the treasure before the people who thoroughly investigate in the capital come to Lanyue, so he has to ask the government for help, after all, he is still the prince now, and the edict of Emperor Yin has not yet come down, and the city lord of Lanyue does not dare to offend him!
With his current mentality, he will never let go of any suspicious person, but he is only suspicious of Gongzi, and there is no evidence, otherwise he would not have invited us here, and he can just shoot the officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress him. But the prince still has to beware of their fraudulent confessions, so as not to show his feet!"
Xiaobao looked at Jiao'er's charming and serious appearance, and liked it very much, listening to her warbler and swallow language, but her eyes stared at her Xiu Yu without blinking, and she was stunned.
Jiao'er glanced up at him, immediately blushed his cheeks, bit his lip and said, "Idiot, what are you looking at! Did you hear what I just said?"
Xiaobao woke up and smiled: "I have written down every word!"
After a long while, I saw a short, obese man like a pig wearing an official uniform and a big belly, swaggering out of the inner hall with the support of Fan Er.
When he walked all the way to the public hall and sat down on the Taishi chair, he raised his eyes and looked down, holding a startled wood, and slapped it on the table with a "pop!" and shouted: "Be bold and make a fool of the people!
Xiaobao smiled slightly: "Dare to ask the city lord, is it invited to invite the grass people to come this time, or is it to be arrested? If it is invited, you and I are equal, why do you kneel? If it is captured, dare to ask the city lord, what crime did the grass people commit?"
The city lord was stunned for a moment, and scolded angrily: "No matter what the reason, I am the dignified city lord of the moon, you are a grass people, how can you not kneel? Come, beat me! Beat him until he kneels!"
Fan Tou couldn't hold it back for a long time, and as soon as he heard the order of the city lord, he snatched the water and fire stick of a servant next to him, and beat it with a stick!
Jiao'er hurriedly stepped forward, protected Xiaobao and said: "Slow down! My son-in-law is not from Lanyue City, and he grew up in the water purification lotus since he was a child, he doesn't care about earthly things, and he doesn't understand etiquette.
As he spoke, he was about to kneel down, but Xiaobao grabbed his arm, looked at her with burning eyes, and said word by word: "Jiao'er, remember, there is no respect for you and me kneeling in this world!"
Jiao'er looked at Xiaobao's fierce eyes, and actually felt an incomparable domineering, and then his body couldn't sink anymore, his knees kept going, and he stood up and said: "Okay, I'll listen to Gongzi! They want to fight, then let's fight, we don't kneel!"
The city lord of Lanyue was furious: "With this sentence, I can cure you of a great crime of rebellion!
Fan Tou shouted, jumped in front of him with the two officials, and raised his stick to Xiaobao and Jiao'er!
Xiaobao saw that this Fan Tou shot viciously, this forcing people to kneel is generally used to deal with unruly prisoners, and the beating is only the knee bent inward, this Fan Tou doesn't know what hatred he has with himself, and he actually slaps the stick!
Xiaobao stretched out his right arm and quickly took Jiao'er by his side, and the true qi in his body instantly overflowed all over his body, and he turned around and glared at Fan Tou and shouted: "Dare!"
As soon as Fan Tou touched Xiaobao's eyes, his heart trembled, but the long stick still split down with inertia, but it was connected with a "bang" two inches from the top of Xiaobao's head, and then bounced back with his hand, and with a "poof" sound, he hit his forehead!
Fan Tou screamed, fell on his back, and the blood flowed on his head, which was fortunate because he was shocked by Xiaobao's majesty just now, and most of the strength in his hand had been eliminated, otherwise this time, he would have opened a scoop for himself!
The other two servants also didn't fall well, the little treasure body of the water and fire stick was not close to it, and it was bounced away by the true qi, how much force he used, how much force he used to recoil, the two of them lost the yamen, drooped their two wrists, bent over and moaned in pain!
Xiao Bao looked at everyone coldly and shouted angrily: "Who dares to do it? What crime have we committed?
Everyone was stunned by this change, and no one dared to step forward for a while!
The city lord was also frightened and almost collapsed on the chair, pointing at Xiaobao and saying in horror: "Demon... Demon law! Come with me and kill this monster!"
Xiaobao looked at him coldly and asked, "Dare to ask my lord, what did we do?"
The city lord pretended to have the courage to pat the shocking wood, but because of the panic in his heart, the shocking wood actually came out of his hand and fell into the hall, and he didn't dare to send someone to pick it up, pointing to Xiaobao and saying, "You... You seduce the Green Forest Thief and steal the treasures of the Lord of Zhenjiang!"
Xiao Bao sighed, squinted at the city lord and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
The city lord shouted: "The suspect is hiding in your place, don't you know it! Harboring the court's important criminals is a capital crime!"
If Jiao'er hadn't reminded him earlier, Xiaobao was really frightened by the city lord at this time, but at this time he laughed: "If the city lord wants to cure the crimes of the grass people, just find a reason! Since the city lord knows that the grass people live in the Hongfu Inn, does he harbor the criminals, can he send troops to investigate?"
Xiaobao believes that the ability of the birds and dancers will definitely be able to cover Yue'er, so he is not afraid of the officers and soldiers to investigate. (hua.) (hua.
But seeing the city lord turn his head to look at him, Xiao Baowei turned his head, and saw Zhou Fu next to him shaking his head with a shameful face to signal to the city lord, and his heart was even more calm.
Jiao'er was protected by Xiaobao in his arms, smelled a strong manly breath in his nose, and was very shy in his heart, but he was also faintly intoxicated, the two had never been so close to each other, but unfortunately they were now in the court, so they reluctantly straightened up from Xiaobao's arms, and said to the city lord: "Guilty or innocent, the city lord will know it when he investigates, such an indiscriminate beating, is it possible that Lanyue City relies on this method to arrest criminals?
The city lord's face was blue and white for a while, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and Zhou Fu next to him said: "It was a misunderstanding just now! The city lord invited Gongzi here today to ask if he had seen any suspicious people last night?
The city lord also reacted at this time, staring at Xiaobao and shouting: "Yes, what are you doing in the Zhou Mansion so late?
Xiao Bao looked at the city lord and sneered: "You are an official of the imperial court, how can you be so open-mouthed? Not to mention that there is no curfew in Lanyue City, and there is no decree to prevent people from traveling in the middle of the night." Do you suspect me of colluding with the bandits?
Jiao'er also said on the side: "There are so many bandits in the world, which one is my son-in-law colluding with? The city lord said that some bandits stole the treasures of the prince of Zhenjiang, what kind of treasure is it? If the city lord does not arrest the bandits, why does he wantonly torture a small person who is only suspicious?"
The city lord was asked by Jiao'er, and he couldn't say a word!
I want to catch the people of Moon City, who saw that I didn't kowtow, and today I was held accountable again and again by these two children who were not yet the age of the weak crown, and their faces turned pale with anger, and they pointed at Jiao'er and said, "You... You're so bold!"
Zhou Fu coughed, smiled at Xiaobao and Jiao'er and said: "Childe, miss, although there is no curfew in Lanyue City, but Childe appeared near the backyard of Zhou's Mansion late at night, and at this time, it was the bandits who were stealing in Zhou's Mansion. I also hope that Gongzi can explain this matter in detail to clear the suspicion!
We don't say dark words, the treasure of the prince was stolen by the star picking god, this thief is mysterious, no one has seen his true face, but last night my lord had a fight with her, slapped her, but unfortunately the sky was very dark, I couldn't see her appearance clearly, and she was injured and ran away!
The escape route is where the prince appeared, and if the prince said that he had not seen this thief, it would be unconvincing! As for what the prince lost, it must be a precious treasure, and it is not a matter for us to change the grass people!
From last night to now, the city lord has sent a large number of people to chase down the thieves who entered the Zhou Mansion last night, and all the relevant personnel have also brought in questions one by one, so the prince does not need to be suspicious and resistant, this is also the duty of the city lord. I also hope that the son will cooperate with the city lord, and the explanation will be one!"
Xiaobao and Jiao'er glanced at each other, and their faces sank, this Zhou Fu is not easy to deal with!
Jiao'er snorted, looked at Zhou Fu and said, "What a duty!" The prince of Zhenjiang lost something, so he wanted to put the whole city under martial law and search for it, but last night there was a ghost devouring incident, but I didn't see the city lord nervous!
For such a big matter, it is impossible for the city lord not to receive the news, but he has not seen any measures, so may I ask the city lord, is it the lives of the common people that are important, or the treasure of the prince of Zhenjiang is important?"
The city lord was furious: "Presumptuous! Do you know what kind of treasure the prince lost? is..."
Zhou Fu interrupted him and said, "Lord City Lord!" looked at the City Lord with fierce eyes, as if he was blaming him for being open-mouthed!
The city lord seemed to be very jealous of this little butler, and when he heard his warning, he quickly shut his mouth and did not dare to say any more!
Zhou Fu smiled faintly on his face, and said to Xiaobao and Jiao'er: "The prince lost something in our Zhou family, which is the sin of dozens of people in the Zhou Mansion! All the people related to this matter must be arrested and investigated! Since you appeared at that time, you can't get rid of it..."
Before Zhou Fu's words were finished, everyone suddenly heard a "Ahhhhh
Everyone's faces changed suddenly, and the city lord trembled with fright, waving his hand and shouting at the bottom again and again: "It's the cry of the ghost last night! It's already here! Go and stop it!"
At this time, I suddenly heard a person outside the door shouting: "The monster is coming!
Yanai suddenly exploded, and everyone fled in all directions, and it became a mess!
Zhou Fu's face was pale with fright, and he shouted to the officials: "Help the city lord to go back to the inner hall!"
Several officials hurriedly ran over, picked up the city lord who was already paralyzed, and hurriedly walked to the inner hall.
Xiaobao took Jiao'er's hand and said, "Jiao'er, let's go!"
The street was full of nervous soldiers and scattered pedestrians, one of whom stopped in front of Xiaobao and Jiao'er with a hat, and whispered, "Follow me!"
Xiaobao looked at it and shouted in surprise: "Crazy woman!"
The crazy woman lifted the hat up, turned around and smiled: "Stinky boy, I still remember my sister! Go, don't stay here for a long time!"
