Chapter 116: Lord Bao interrogates Cong Scar at night
A figure flashed in at the back door of the garden.
Jiang Shuping hurriedly stood up, nervously looked around, and saw that there was no one, so he relieved himself and beckoned to that person.
The man quickly came to her side.
"Niang Niang Chitose called the old slave over, but what did you order?" Yu Lun leaned over and asked.
"There's no one here, so there's no need to pretend to be such a minion." Jiang Shuping said.
Yu Lun suddenly smiled, reached out and pinched Jiang Shuping's face.
Jiang Shuping didn't dodge, just glared at him.
"You fake eunuch, you are dying, but you are still here so frivolous."
Yu Lun only stared greedily at Jiang Shuping's little face, as if he didn't notice what she said just now.
"Did you hear it, Banzai had already recruited Bao Zheng into the palace just now to investigate the poisoning of the eldest lady. What should you and I do? Jiang Shuping clenched his pink fist and hit Yu Lun.
Only then did Yu Lun put away his smile.
"Niangniang, just rest assured, the old slave has already heard Jifeng talk to me. Don't worry about this, the old slave will definitely try to stop him. ”
"That Bao Zheng is not easy to mess with, you have to be extra careful." Jiang Shuping said.
"Don't worry." Yu Lun's eyes rolled a few times, "A few guards in Kaifeng Prefecture can't help me." ”
Jiang Shuping slapped his chest twice with his hand, pursed two thin lips, let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Don't be too reckless, don't be self-defeating." ”
"I know." Yu Lun said and came over again, but Jiang Shuping covered his mouth with his little hand, "This is not a safe place, and this palace is not in the mood to be close to you." When it's convenient, the palace will ask Jifeng to call you over. ”
Yu Lun was still a little reluctant, but seeing that Jiang Shuping insisted on refusing to give in, he had no choice but to leave.
At this time, Master Bao had already returned to Kaifeng Mansion.
"Lord Qiyu, Miss Jade asks to see you." As soon as he sat down, an errand officer outside the door came in to report.
"Please let her in." Bao Zheng said.
Chen Yuniang didn't come here alone, and Tang Xing'er was followed by her.
Diao Chan has been missing for several days, and the two no longer dare to hide it, so they decide to ask Master Bao to help find her.
The only clue they could give was the carriage, and it was unknown who owned it or where it had gone with Diao.
One of Bao Zheng's black heads swelled into a watermelon.
"Mrs. Tang has been missing for so long, why did she come to report to this official?" Bao Zheng asked a little unhappily.
"The little girl knows that her father-in-law is busy with official business, so she really doesn't dare to disturb easily." Chen Yuniang lowered her head and replied in a low voice.
"Tang Zhuangshi has just brought a letter, he has already been stable in the place of distribution, and he wants to ask this official to send someone to escort his wife to live with him, but he doesn't want such a thing to happen now." Master Bao said.
"Brother Lu has settled down? I said that he was not an ordinary person, and he could go anywhere. Tang Xing'er said inappropriately.
"Mrs. Tang is lost, beware of your Brother Lu coming back to settle accounts with you." Chen Yuniang glared at Tang Xing'er.
Tang Xing'er covered her mouth.
Master Bao was also puzzled by Tang Xing'er always calling Tang Lu Bu Brother Lu, until now, he didn't know that this Tang Zhuang was the little Wenhou who was in the world back then.
"Since Miss Apricot saw the person dressed as two servants following the carriage at that time, can you give me a general description of his appearance?" Bao Zheng asked.
Tang Xing'er tried to think about it.
Soon, the master drew the servant's appearance on a piece of paper according to Tang Xing'er's description.
"yes, that's what it looks like." Tang Xing'er nodded again and again, "There is a scar on the corner of her mouth, which is quite scary." ”
"Okay, you two go back for the time being, if there is anything, the official will send someone to call you." Master Bao said.
"The little girl said goodbye." Chen Yuniang said, pulling Tang Xing'er away.
Bao Zheng put the picture on the table.
Something had just happened in the palace, and now, Diao Chan had disappeared again, and Bao Zheng really felt that he had never been so nervous.
If that Tang Lu Bu learned about this, I am afraid that he would not continue to stay in that small city, and he would definitely rush back, and when the time comes, his Kaifeng Mansion will also be overturned by him.
Naturally, Bao Zheng thought of Yan Xizheng.
This squire of the Criminal Department, who only wants to kill Lu Bu to avenge his son, will really do such a despicable thing - mutilating Lu Bu's wife?
All the officials in the government were called, and Lord Bao handed them the map.
"My lord, the villain seems to have seen this person before." Xu Ba said suddenly.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Ba's face.
"This person's nickname is Cong Scar, he used to live in a village with the villain for a while, and later, I heard that he went to the capital and entered an official's house as a family, as for which official, the villain does not know." Xu Ba said.
A smile instantly appeared on Bao Zheng's face.
"That's right." Bao Zheng said, and then waved his hand to the other people, signaling that they could go out, leaving Xu Ba alone, and then whispered something to him.
"How can your lord assert that this person is in Yan Shilang's mansion?" Xu Ba asked.
"You just do as you are told, I expect this clump of scars to appear in the nearby teahouse in the next few days." Bao Zheng pretended to be mysterious.
"Yes, the villain will go." Xu Ba didn't say anything more.
Seeing Xu Ba leaving, Bao Zheng walked around the room with his hands behind his back and his huge belly, continuing to think about where to start to solve the case of poisoning in the palace.
It must be that the affairs of this royal family are much bigger than the affairs of Diao Chan.
As expected by Lord Bao, in the evening of the same day, Xu Ba returned to Kaifeng Mansion with Cong Scar.
Cong Scar was drunk, and the scar on the side of his mouth was red and swollen, disgusting and frightening.
"I knew that Brother Xu Ba was serving in Kaifeng Mansion, but he never had time to come to visit, presumably Brother Xu Ba is now a general of the imperial court, and he has long forgotten that we once had a friendship with fellow villagers." Cong Scar said.
"How can Brother Cong talk like this, little brother is the same as you, but he is also a person who serves adults." Xu Ba said as he pulled Cong Scar towards the lobby.
When he walked to the door of the lobby and saw two errand officers standing there with a single knife hanging from his waist, Cong Scar suddenly stopped, as if he had half awakened from the wine.
"What is Brother Xu Ba doing here with his little brother?"
"My family has something to discuss with you, and I invite Brother Cong to come in and see you." Xu Ba tightly grasped Cong Scar's hand and didn't let go.
Cong Scar rubbed his drunken eyes.
"Lord Bao is an official of the imperial court, how can he see a villain like me." As he spoke, he turned around and left.
The officers standing on either side caught up and twisted his hand without saying a word.
"Your Excellency is in the hall, hurry up and wait for me to go in."
At this time, Mr. Bao was sitting on the top of the lobby.
Seeing Cong Scar being brought in, he suddenly slapped the table vigorously and shouted, "This official has long expected that after you get the reward of Yan Xizheng, you will go to the nearby teahouse. The official now has a lot of evidence in your possession, and if you don't make the matter clear immediately, you need to beware of the official's board. ”
This kind of vague words, to Cong Scar's ears, were like a thunderclap, which frightened him to the ground.
