Volume 4 The Inner Courtyard Rises to Prominence Chapter Seventy-Three The Town Mayor's Mansion

Under Chen Tianxiang's arrangement, Xiaopang and Chen Tianyu came to the mayor's mansion on the second day.

"Stop, this is the mayor's mansion, may I ask what the three of you are doing here?" The guard at the door said.

When Chen Tianxiang heard this, he stepped forward and said, "The three of us have already given a visit to the town elder yesterday, and the adults have agreed to our visit today, please ask this little brother to pass it on on his behalf, and say that Chen Tianxiang of the Chen family in the county town is visiting, thank you!" ”

As soon as the guard heard Chen Tianxiang say that he was a member of the Chen family in the county town, his expression immediately became panicked.

Hurriedly laughed and said, "It turned out to be a noble person of the Chen family, the villain was rude, and please don't be familiar with the villain, the mayor of the town has explained, the adult can go in directly, no need to pass on, I will lead the way for you, please follow the small one, hehe"

"Then there is Brother Lao, hehe" Chen Tianxiang said with a smile.

The three of them followed the guard into the mayor's mansion.

Everyone passed through a cloister and arrived at the second hall of the mansion, skipping the second hall, and behind the guards, in front of the little fat was the main hall of the mansion.

When the three of them walked into the main hall, a burly middle-aged man was standing at the top of the main hall, with his back to them.

When the guard saw the man in front of him, he hurriedly stepped forward respectfully and said, "Mayor, Chen Tianxiang of the Chen family is here, and according to your orders, someone has been brought"

"Well, got it, you go down first!" The burly man replied lightly.

The guard immediately stepped back.

After the guards left, the burly man slowly turned around, looked at the three chubby, when his eyes swept over Chen Tianyu, his eyes froze, and then he said loudly to Chen Tianxiang, who was the leader, "Brother Tianxiang, don't come to harm!" I don't know what is the so-called matter of visiting my brother here today? And who are these two, and why do they look so faceless? ”

Seeing the burly man ask, Chen Tianxiang pointed to the two of them and explained, "One of these two is my brother, and the other is my nephew, both of whom are from my Chen clan, and they are not outsiders, so the town chief doesn't have to worry, as for what happened today..."

"Brother Tianyu, Xiao Yuanlong, this is Wang Wenzhong, the mayor of Qingshui Town, Lord Wang, and my good brother, if you want to know anything today, you can ask Mayor Wang."

Chen Tianyu stepped forward and said loudly, "It turned out to be Lord Wang, disrespectful and disrespectful, under Chen Tianyu, if you come to the house today, please ask Haihan."

The little fat on the side also smiled and said, "Lord Wang, hello, boy Chen Yuanlong, this is polite."

"Eh, the two of you are serious, since they are my brother and nephew Tianxiang, then naturally they are also my brother and nephew, you don't have to be formal, please sit down! Hehe," Wang Wenzhong said with a smile.

When the four of them sat down, "Come on, serve tea," Wang Wenzhong, who was sitting at the top, shouted loudly.

After Wang Wenzhong took a sip of tea, he looked up at Chen Tianxiang, and then swept to Chen Tianyu, and said with a calm face, "I don't know, what do you want to inquire about when you come to my house!" If Wen Zhong knows, he must know everything, and he must say everything."

"Since Lord Wang has said so, Tianyu is welcome, my lord, I heard that our town was not in such a depression before, right? And I've heard in the town that some children have disappeared for no apparent reason, so I wonder if the mayor of the town knows why. Chen Tianyu asked lightly.

When Wang Wenzhong heard Chen Tianyu's words, his heart tightened, his eyes flashed slightly and disappeared, he looked up at Chen Tianyu, sighed, and said calmly, "Yes!" This is all about the past half a year, before the town was still quite lively, this is all my incompetence as the mayor of the town, betrayed the trust of the county guard, did not manage this Qingshui Town well, as for the town children disappeared for no reason, Brother Tianyu just came, may not know, the town government attaches great importance to this matter, the past half a year has sent several waves of people to investigate the matter, but they are all sunk into the sea, and the people who arranged to go out are also no news, so in the end, there is no way, can only order the children in the town not to go out, this is also a helpless move! Why did Brother Tianyu ask about these things? ”

"Oh, that's the case, my brother came here to do something, I wanted to buy some elixir, but I found that the town was so depressed, so I found me and wanted to know about it, but, Brother Wang, you know me, I usually only care about cultivation in the town, so go back and inquire about these things, so I thought of bringing the two of them to you, let Brother Wang, solve their doubts, the younger brother is here to make amends to Brother Wang first, without prior notice, it is the younger brother's fault" Chen Tianxiang hurriedly said apologetically.

After Wang Wenzhong heard this, his brows stretched, revealing a relieved face, and he smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, your brother has this doubt, I, as the mayor of the town, can answer it for him, and it should be, but I don't know, my answer, are you still satisfied?" Huh"

Seeing Wang Wenzhong say this, Xiaopang on the side could already hear the displeasure in his words, but what made him puzzled was that most of what the mayor said was to avoid the important and trivial, and did not mention any core content, for example, the clues of the disappearance of the children, the clues of the disappearance of the people who went out to investigate, and the most important thing is that the mayor did not say a word about the prohibition of people in the town from reporting to the county town, all of which made Xiaopang feel a little unbelievable.

So Xiao Pang stepped forward and said respectfully, "Hello, Mayor, thank you very much for your patient explanation, but Xiao Yuanlong still has a question I want to ask you, I don't know, is it inconvenient for you to solve Xiao Yuanlong's doubts?" ”

Hearing Xiaopang's voice, Wang Wenzhong looked at Xiaopang, and said with a slight smile on his face, "Oh, it turned out to be Yuanlong's nephew, if you have any questions, just say, ah, hehe"

"That's the case, the little nephew thinks that our Qingshui Town is indeed a place of outstanding people, and the town chief you are also exhausted, but now it has become like this, which makes Yuanlong very sad, I just want to ask, can you solve this matter, the mayor, and Qingshui Town is peaceful, if you can't, Yuanlong has a suggestion, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" Chubby preached calmly.

"Oops! It's really tricky to say whether this matter can be solved, since the virtuous nephew has good advice, but it doesn't hurt to say it, ah! Hehe," Wang Wenzhong said heartily.

Seeing this, Xiao Pang pondered a little and said, "Then I will be ugly, Yuanlong's humble opinion is that if the mayor can't solve this matter, can he hand over this matter to me and my father and Uncle Tianxiang to investigate the matter, of course, if there is a place where you need your help from the mayor, I hope that when the time comes, you don't postpone it, hehe"

Hearing Xiaopang say this, Wang Wenzhong was shocked, thinking that this kid had discovered something, shouldn't it! No matter, since he wants to find death, let him go! Anyway, I didn't let him go, the master will definitely let them go without returning, haha.

I thought so in my heart, but I said with a smile on my face, "This matter is not okay, this is too dangerous, since you are Tianxiang's nephew, how can I let you go to risk your life, oops!" I think this matter will be investigated by my mayor's mansion! ”

Xiaopang was about to say more, but Chen Tianxiang stepped forward and said, "Brother Wenzhong, you are too worried, my brother and my nephew still have some strength, you can rest assured!" Besides, you have your backing! Rest assured! It's going to be fine, and they're all from the county family, if you let them go, and the matter is reported back to the county, you won't be disgraced, right? ”

When Wang Wenzhong heard this, his face was embarrassed, and he was silent for a long time, and finally sighed slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Okay then!" Since you insist, then this matter will be handed over to you to investigate, if you find anything, you must notify me as soon as possible, you must not take risks, and you must pay attention to safety."

After speaking, Wang Wenzhong looked at the three of them.

"Don't worry! Isn't there still me looking at the two of them? Okay, now that the matter has been negotiated, then we won't bother, Brother Wenzhong, let's see you back! Chen Tianxiang said with a smile.

Then, Xiaopang and Chen Tianyu also stepped forward to salute Wang Wenzhong, and then, under Wang Wenzhong's eyes, the three of them left the mayor's mansion, and after the three left, the smile on Wang Wenzhong's face disappeared instantly, and his eyes became gloomy, and he closed his eyes as if he was recalling something.

But it didn't take long for Wang Wenzhong, who closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time, his rough face showed an expression of disbelief, and he shouted in horror, "Could it be him?"
