Chapter 31: The Evil Servant Eats the Lord

In the back hall of Baoding Mansion, the prefect Zheng Chengen had a cold face, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, like ants on a hot pot.

Stopped, and bit the red-robed man standing by the door with his head bowed:

"Sect Master Luo, do you have anything to say?"

The red-robed man trembled:

"Back to adults, the matter has not reached the point of no return, and I am thinking of how to deal with this matter."

"I think that I'm 'Red Seal Sect' with the backers of the imperial court, hundreds of thousands of sect members outside, full of talents, and masters like clouds, but I was disturbed by a small factory dog in Jiangnan, does he have three heads and six arms? It's not because of your incompetence as a leader! ”

The middle-aged man in the red robe was submissive, and he didn't dare to make another sound.

"Since the helmsman of Changzhou, Jin Changshun, has been targeted by them, simply replace him, and must not let the embankment collapse in the anthill."

"Thank you for your teachings, and I will deal with this matter as soon as I get back." The red-robed man bowed and withdrew.

This year's rainy season came early, and it rained non-stop just after the end of May.

It was still the dilapidated courtyard on the outskirts of the city, Jin Changshun, who was wearing a black robe and a black scarf, was facing the four winning brothers in front of him, facing the slightest light rain:

"Since your Ying brothers went south, this helmsman has given you extremely high treatment, beautiful women and jewelry, and I can be regarded as benevolent and righteous. On the other hand, they only want to eat, drink and have fun, and the task has not been completed so far. As a result, the enemy was arrogant and caused many irreparable losses to the rudder. If you can't extinguish its burning momentum, the helmsman is waiting! ”

The Ying triplets didn't say a word, and Wei Dongqing argued:

"The Golden Helmsman is wrong with this, I think my brother is not a wild dog that no one has taken in, or are you begging us for help? Now that things are not going well, but all the blame is on us, how can there be such a reason? ”

Jin Changshun was so angry that he trembled all over his body and didn't say anything for a long time.

I think his name as a good man of Jin Changshun Jin resounded all over the country, and in the Changzhou area, it was known to women and children. Over the years, from the people to the government, who dares to say that they don't say a word? Now he is ridiculed by such a young person, and his heart is angry for a while.

Jin Fu, the housekeeper next to him, who was also wearing a black mask, watched coldly and didn't say a word.

After a long time, Jin Changshun sighed and said:

"That's it, then it's good to gather and disperse. You walk on your sunny path, and I cross my one-plank bridge. ”

With that, he turned and left.

Jin Fu suddenly made a gesture to Wei Dongqing, who flipped his hand and showed the dagger in his sleeve, and caught up with Master Jin who was about to be discharged from the hospital, holding his chest with his left hand, and quickly slashing the dagger with his right hand to his throat.

Master Jin let out a short last whisper and staggered to the door.

Jin Fu looked at the still wriggling corpse of Master Jin, his eyes full of disdain.

Turning his head, his originally slumped body instantly stood up straight, and said to the four brothers:

"The sect leader has an order, ordering me to take over the position of Changzhou helmsman from today onwards, and your Ying brothers will continue to stay at the helm and serve the sect leader. The sect leader also said that he would give it to your brothers in the future. For the time being, Wei Dongqing was ordered to be the master of the Wuxi altar, and the three of you brothers went over together to assist. After you go to Wuxi, you will reopen the altar to accept disciples, and I will provide all the funds you need. ”

The four of them clenched their fists to accept the order.

The rain fell heavier, washing the blood under Master Jin's body into blood.

A dazzling lightning flashed, and Master Jin's round eyes seemed to be full of loneliness and unwillingness.

How can life be more satisfying, everything is only half satisfied.

It's a pity that when I dreamed back, it was already the third watch.

Jin Changshun Jin suddenly disappeared, and the Jin family sent people to search for ten days, but there was no news, and there was no trace. It was only at this time that the Jin family panicked.

For so many years, all the business of the Jin family has been run by Master Jin and the housekeeper Jin Fu, and the rest of the Jin family has enjoyed the leisurely life of stretching out their hands for food and opening their mouths, and they never have to worry about the future days not being settled.

Master Jin has a lot of wives and concubines, but he only gave birth to two sons, one died before he was a minor, and the rest was in his twenties, but his mind did not grow with age, and he still stayed at the level of four or five years old, so he could barely eat by himself without being fed by others.

Now that the life of the Jin family inside and outside and the management of the business, these burdens can only fall on the shoulders of a housekeeper in Jinfu.

For this reason, Master Jin's four wives and concubines all felt that they couldn't go, and specially told Jin Fu:

"Jin Fu, you have been in our family for decades, and the master has always valued you very much, and has never treated you as an outsider. Now the old man can't see anyone alive, he can't see the corpse when he dies, the whole family still has to eat and drink, and the business outside has to continue, these are only up to you. You are the biggest benefactor of our Jin family! ”

Speaking of passion, he almost knelt down and kowtowed to Jin Fu.

Jin Fu hurriedly said:

"Thank you for your love! Rest assured, even if my Jin Fu is broken, I have to take care of the inside and outside of the Jin family to repay the kindness of the lord and wife! ”

The disappearance of Kim Changshun also attracted the attention of Du Wenlin and them.

"My servants take turns to monitor Kim Changshun for twelve hours a day, who would have thought that he disappeared for no reason under his nose, did he see that the situation was unfavorable to him and hid?" Ouyang Prefect Road.

"There is also this possibility, but until things are clarified, it is all conjecture." Tu Qianjun said.

"Alas, the key is that most of the believers who were escorted from Wuxi in the prison cells did not understand the medicine, and they cried and cried, as if they were crazy, and the color of pain was overflowing. If they can't find Kim Chang Soon to get the antidote, these people may not be able to survive the end of the month. ”

Everyone was silent, and they couldn't do anything about it.

Du Wenlin interjected:

"Although they joined the 'Red Seal Sect', most of them were deceived or forced in, and their crimes did not lead to death, but what can they do?" Speaking of this, he sighed and said:

"We can only do our best, if we can arrest Kim Changshun as soon as possible, they may still have hope of survival. At present, we only have the materials of Kim Chang Soon, and the information of his followers is almost unknown. If he goes missing, we'll be left passive by losing this important clue. ”

As soon as Du Wenlin's words came out, everyone realized that until now, they had only indirectly learned about the identity of Jin Changshun's helmsman, and this was still hearsay, and they knew almost nothing else.

"Why don't you arrest the whole city tomorrow, can he still fly to the sky?" Ouyang Prefect Road.

Du Wenlin objected to such an approach:

"The whole city is arrested, and it doesn't have much effect. If he really deliberately hid, it would be difficult to find him. Since he can't be found, but starting from his family and life circle behind his back, there may be clues. ”

Everyone felt that Du Wenlin's suggestion was desirable and decided to start an investigation immediately.

No one knows as much about the details of Jin Changshun's disciples as Jin Fu, and he has even more information than the boss.

But now is not the time to take command of them, as the guards and horsemen are digging deep into the ground to find Kim Changshun and his men.

At this time, what he has to do is how to maintain the Jin family's industry, and become stronger and bigger, and then he will not feel that he will be included in his arms.

Three generations of his ancestors and grandchildren have been slaves in the Jin family, although the Jin family is not thin on them, but they can never erase the identity of their subordinates.

Since Jin Changshun joined the "Red Confession Sect", he has been mixed into the position of helmsman with his financial resources and influence, but his goal is too big and it is inconvenient to come out, so many affairs in the sect are operated by Jin Fu. So much so that many people in the sect still think that Jin Fu is the helmsman.

Even the contact between the head teacher and Changzhou Helm Port was mostly contacted by Jin Fu.

Ever since the factory guards set their sights on Kim Chang Soon, Kim Fu knew that his end was coming, because with his own understanding of this teaching, it was impossible for him to leave a bane here.

Heaven is as people wish, and finally waited for the messenger from above, and this time he brought an oracle for Jin Fu to succeed Jin Changshun as the helmsman of Changzhou, and an oracle for Jin Changshun to completely disappear from this world.

I have always believed in a saying: I can't run away if it's my own.

Now, he is finally on the bright road of turning over as the master, and in a few years, he is the second famous Jin master.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but touch the cream-like tender skin of the little phoenix next to her, which made her scream again.

The streets and alleys of Changzhou have recently been drilled by factory guards and horsemen to be more familiar than the alleys in front of their own homes; They were dressed in civilian clothes, in groups of two, walking through the streets and alleys every day, hoping to find clues about Master Jin.

Unfortunately, there is no gain.

With the disappearance of Jin Changshun, all the members of his sect were like poisonous snakes when the cold wind came, and they disappeared into the ground and hibernate in an instant.

Although the main entry is gone, the business of the Jin family continues to flourish in an orderly manner under the care of the housekeeper Jin Fu, which has to make everyone praise the Jin family for accumulating yin virtue in the previous life, so that there is a loyal and capable housekeeper like Jin Fu.

Du Wenlin and Wang Ling went to walk around the Jin family's shops when they were fine, hoping to make an unexpected discovery.

"Jinji Pawnshop" is located in the downtown area of Changzhou, and the business has been relatively prosperous.

Recently, Xiao Fengxian became a pawn shop shopkeeper, twisting Yang Liu's waist all day long to flirt with guests who came and went, and scolded Liu Jingxian, the old courtier, so angry that he scolded in his heart: You are treating this place as a brothel.

Du Wenlin and Wang Ling walked into the pawn shop, Xiao Fengxian was sitting at the coffee table drinking tea, and when they saw the two of them entering the house, they greeted them with a smile:

"Are the two young ladies here to be things or to redeem things?"

"We're just going around." Du Wenlin is honest, so he will tell the truth.

"It's neither a Goolan courtyard nor a vegetable market, what's any better?" As he spoke, he sat down again, his face full of disdain.

Wang Ling stopped drying, brushed it, pulled out the soft sword on his waist, smashed it on the counter, and said with a cold face:

"See how much my sword is worth?"

The courtier Lao Liu at the counter was frightened.

It is the rule of pawnshops not to accept swords and other weapons, and no one wants to be involved with people who play with knives and guns.

Now the woman in red slapped such a sword with a cold light here, obviously trying to find fault.

Xiao Fengxian didn't see it well, and immediately changed her smiling face:

"Oops, it's all my fault for having a bad mouth and accidentally offending the two of you. The slave family can't compensate the two of them! "As he spoke, he was making a bow and arching again.

"What's the matter, Miss Ben's sword is worthless?" Wang Ling was on the horizon.

"No, miss, don't get me wrong, our store doesn't accept swords and other weapons." Xiao Fengxian secretly complained in her heart, just now she thought that they were just the sons and daughters of ordinary rich families, but who knew that suddenly they showed up guys.

"Who just said that this is not Goolan Courtyard and not a vegetable market? So what exactly is the business here? ”

Liu Chaofeng inside hurriedly ran out of the round:

"Just now the shopkeeper was confused and offended the two, please forgive me. The old decay apologized to the two again in place of the shopkeeper! As he spoke, he bowed and made a bow.

"Hmph, for so many years, no one has dared to insult Miss Ben like this. Just apologize and it's over? Wang Ling did not give up.

Du Wenlin sat next to him without saying a word, watching several of them perform.
