Chapter 75: Wen Kui's Solicitation
Wen Kui!
With the help of the cover of the laurel tree, Xie Xuan walked nearly ten steps forward, and only after he was not far from the grass pavilion where the two of them were and could clearly hear the conversation between the two, he stopped and hid behind a laurel tree.
The fallen osmanthus was paved with a layer of golden grass pavilion.
Wen Kui chatted with Chen Chaoyan for a moment about the various precautions for entering Jiuding Mountain with a gentle face, and suddenly changed his words and said, "What does Miss Chen think of Beilu County?" ”
Chen Chaoyan was half a cup of tea before meeting Wen Kui.
At that time, after admiring the osmanthus flowers and walking around, she was about to go back, when she met him in front of the grass pavilion.
"I've been to so few places I can't give a fair assessment." Seeing that he asked seriously, Chen Chaoyan was not perfunctory. After carefully considering it for a while, he said, "However, compared with Qingxi County, whether it is official governance, people's feelings, or the environment, Beilu County is undoubtedly much stronger. ”
Wen Kui smiled, "I have also heard about Miss Chen's deeds in Qingxi County. That Lord Zhou framed Miss Chen in various ways for a mere two hundred yuan, and his eyelids were really shallow. You must know that with Miss Chen's ability, no matter who she assists, she can be promoted to at least one level in less than two years. ”
Chen Chaoyan smiled, "Lord Wen's words, is it praising me, or killing me?" ”
"Naturally, I sincerely praise Miss Chen." Wen Kui's gaze swept over the laurel tree where the flowers fell like rain, and then fell directly to Chen Chaoyan, and said with a smile, "If Miss Chen doesn't believe it, you can stay in Beilu County to verify it yourself." I can swear that during Miss Chen's stay in Beilu County, I will take care of Miss Chen like family. ”
Yuejian on the side was anxious, and she had to be instructed by Xie Xuan to follow Chen Chaoyan to protect her from time to time. Hearing Wen Kui's words at this moment, she said without hesitation: "You are so unreasonable, our son-in-law kindly brought Miss Chen to Beilu County to help you, you don't want to be grateful, you actually snatched Miss Chen behind our son's back!" ”
Wen Kui smiled and said nothing, just looking at Chen Chaoyan, waiting for her answer.
Yue Jian was so angry that she also looked at Chen Chaoyan, "Miss Chen......"
After Chen Chaoyan signaled Yuejian to be calm and impatient, he looked at Wen Kui and said with a smile: "If Lord Wen wants to be promoted, it is more direct to find the prince than to find me." ”
Wen Kui glanced at Yuejian, and Yuejian snorted. Wen Kui smiled lightly and looked back at Chen Chaoyan, "Miss Chen should understand that I invited you to stay in Beilu County not for the sake of promotion. ”
"Miss Chen, whether it is a case or an autopsy, is outstanding. This kind of ability is the most suitable for staying in the county government to eliminate violence and justice for the people. ”
"Master Wen is really unreasonable and misquoted!" Yuejian couldn't help but retort, "According to Lord Wen's words, Miss Chen should follow our son, stand on the highest place, and eliminate violence and justice for the people of the world!" What does it mean to live in a corner, just for the people of Beilu County to eliminate evil and promote good? Could it be that in the eyes of Lord Wen, the mountains and rivers of the Great Wei Dynasty are only called the people of Beilu County? ”
Chen Chaoyan looked at Yuejian in surprise, such sharp words, not like the Yuejian she knew.
Yuejian's face turned red, and she was also angry. But...... She raised her chin slightly and looked at Wen Kui defiantly, she had already raised such a big hat, to see what else he was using to rob their son-in-law of Miss Chen!
Wen Kui smiled, he had thought of thousands of reasons for Chen Chaoyan to reject him, but he didn't expect that he would lose in the hands of a servant girl in the end. She has carried out the entire Great Wei, what else can he say?
Fortunately, when he recruited Chen Chaoyan, he originally just had the attitude of giving it a try, so he couldn't talk about loss or disappointment.
After getting up and waving his hands, saluting Chen Chaoyan, and then saluting to Yuejian, Wen Kui left freely.
Yuejian looked at his distant back, and after quietly breathing a sigh of relief, he said, "Banxia and Ziling should have already cooked, Miss Chen, let's go back." ”
Chen Chaoyan should be good.
However, not far from following Tsukimi out of the grass pavilion, she inadvertently saw two pairs of footprints printed under the laurel tree nearby, and after silently raising her eyebrows, she swept around. Sweeping more than ten steps away from the side, Xie Xuan, who was leaning lightly on the laurel tree, chuckled twice, tilted his head to look at him and said, "The prince's ambition is really chic." ”
Yue Jian saw Xie Xuan one step earlier than Chen Chaoyan, and when he saw that he was alone, he waved his hand very clearly and left quietly.
"No matter how chic it is, it can't compare to Miss Chen." Xie Xuan joked.
Chen Chaoyan saw that he couldn't come, so he had to walk over, "How long has the prince been here?" ”
Xie Xuan was frivolous: "What, did you disturb Miss Chen?" ”
Chen Chaoyan looked at the golden cinnamon that fell on his hair and body, and said, "It seems that it has been a long time." ”
Xie Xuan followed her gaze, and after also glancing at the golden cinnamon on her body, he got up and walked towards the outside of the forest.
Chen Chaoyan followed behind him, and asked as he walked, "Did Lord Wen hear all the words he said to me?" ”
Xie Xuan said slowly: "What's the matter, Miss Chen's heart is moved?" ”
"Don't dare." Chen Chaoyan hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and said half-truthfully, "I'm afraid that the prince will retaliate." ”
Xie Xuan snorted, put away the jade bone landscape fan again, turned around and tapped her twice, "It's good to know!" ”
Chen Chaoyan couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw him turn around.
Xie Xuan seemed to have some feelings: "Not convinced? ”
Chen Chaoyan immediately denied it, "No." ”
"I don't dare!" Xie Xuan snorted. When he got out of Guishulin, he deliberately took half a step slower, and after Chen Chaoyan stepped forward and walked side by side with him, Fang explained casually, "Master Wen is the seventeenth in the second class of Bingshen year, and he has done this kind of achievement, and he has also done it as a county guard." But he had no background, no support, and third, his heart was too soft and incompatible with officialdom, so he was thrown to Beilu County. If you follow him, with your ability, if anyone in the capital hears about your deeds, it will probably not end well. ”
Waiting outside Guilin with Ruolan and Qingxue, Yuejian, who followed closely at this moment, answered: "Lord Wen can't even protect himself, how can he protect Miss Chen!" ”
Chen Chaoyan didn't speak, just squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the rising sun. Regarding Wen Kui's solicitation, Chen Chaoyan did not think about it in advance. If you want to say that you are not impressed at all, it must be false. Beilu County is not only rich, but also from the perspective of just a few days of contact, the folk customs are also very good. With Wen Kui's protection, and with her ability, it shouldn't be difficult to gain a foothold here.
As for what Xie Xuan said...... She took the initiative to get rid of him and chose to stay here, and those big people who wanted to come to the capital should also understand that her people are short-sighted.
"Aunt Chen......" Seeing this, she wanted to persuade her again. Xie Xuan looked at her coldly, and Yue Jian could only shut up stupidly.
Had breakfast.
The elder and Li Zheng also came over with people.
After Wen Kui meticulously arranged the plan discussed last night, Chen Chaoyan also followed Xie Xuan in a carriage to Wang Gui's tofu shop. Wang Gui and Zhou Xiaocao Xu also received Wen Kui's secret guidance, knowing that Chen Chaoyan was the key to solving the case, so they did not follow the leading officials into the mountain, but deliberately waited for her at home, ready to join her.
Chen Chaoyan did not refuse, but only asked Wen Kui to send two officials to bring Wang Daya with him, and then entered Jiuding Mountain from the path behind the tofu shop.
Ruolan and Chonglou explored the way ahead.
Chen Chaoyan and Xie Xuan walked side by side behind.
Then there are the three of Yuejian, Shishu, and Wenmo.
Light snow pressed back alone.
After that, it was Wen Kui and Wang Gui, Zhou Xiaocao, the elderly, Li Zheng and others.
Although the scope of the search had already been searched, Chen Chaoyan still tried his best to expand the scope of the search, so that the light screen could 'scan' more places.
"Looking at the vegetation distribution of this terrain, people in the town should come and go frequently." Ruolan observed as she walked.
Wang Guimulan accosted: "Every year in April and May, it is the season for the growth of all kinds of wild vegetables, and in June, July, August and September, it is the month when all kinds of wild fruits ripen one after another. The hills in this vicinity, and the people of the town and nearby villages have long since climbed and rotted. ”
Wen Kui said casually: "It's been rotten a long time ago, and if it's rotten, it means that there are no beasts." ”
"In the early decades, there were no fierce birds and beasts, and occasionally lost wild boars rushed out." Wang Gui replied subconsciously. After answering, I remembered that they were going to the mountain to find Wang Erya and Wang Goudan, and their faces suddenly turned white, "My lord is talking ......"
"Nothing!" Wen Kui secretly scolded himself for not talking too much, and after quickly looking at Chen Chaoyan who was walking in front of him, he quickly relieved, "If it is really a fierce bird or beast, it will always leave a trace or two, and it should have been found by the officials who entered the mountain a long time ago." ”
Wang Gui, who was not much relieved, reluctantly agreed, 'yes', then supported Zhou Xiaocao and silently followed behind everyone, no longer silent.
He was silent, but Zhou Xiaocao seemed to be alive, tilted his head to look at the silent Wang Daya, and said weakly: "Daya, you tell your mother, where did you hide Erya and the dog's eggs?" ”
Wang Daya was still silent.
Zhou Xiaocao wept and said: "Big girl, Er Ya and Goudan are your younger brothers and sisters, can you bear to see them not eating or drinking outside, and being afraid?" If you beg your mother, you can tell your mother where they are, okay? ”
Wang Daya was unmoved.
Zhou Xiaocao let go of Wang Gui's support and knelt on the ground, "Big girl, my mother begs you......"
Wang Daya walked past her indifferently and didn't look back.
Wang Gui's deep buried anger gushed out in an instant!
For more than two months, the worry and grief of not being able to find Wang Erya and Wang Goudan and the fatigue of taking care of Zhou Xiaocao made his anger like an erupting volcano!
"Stop!" Three or two steps rushed forward to stop Wang Daya, Wang Gui raised his hand and slapped her in the face, "Lao Tzu is a wolf, and he should support his family for so many years!" Raising your pig and dog for so many years, is this how you did to your mother! ”
Wang Daya covered her face and looked at him in disbelief, "Dad, you beat me?" ”
Wang Gui's surging anger instantly dissipated like water.
Over the years, even if there is Wang Erya and Wang Goudan, he has no choice but to let her share some housework, he has always held her on the tip of his heart, reluctant to beat and scold, and now he is angry...... Looking at her suspicious appearance, Wang Gui subconsciously wanted to step forward to take a look at her face, but when he saw Zhou Xiaocao who was kneeling on the ground, crying so much that he wanted to die, his heart sank suddenly. Secretly clenched his trembling fists, and scolded fiercely: "It's you who hit!" If you are unfaithful and unfilial, you'd better pray that Erya and Goudan are okay, otherwise, I will not only beat you, but also kill you with my own hands to make amends for their sins! ”
After the words fell, Wang Gui came back a few steps, picked up Zhou Xiaocao and left.
