The middle-aged man waved his withered and thin hand, signaled that Chen Quan didn't need to be polite, and said weakly.

"I have been recuperating in Rongcheng for many years, and my body has recovered three or four percent, I wanted to continue to recuperate, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen."

"Disturbing Elder Chen Xian, it's me, a junior, who is derelict in my responsibility!" Chen Quan said respectfully, with a little guilt in his words, the sick middle-aged man in front of him was one of the elders of the clan, if it weren't for the rebellion in the royal capital back then, this was the existence of the pinnacle of the transformation realm, and he could be said to be one of the strong people in the family, but unfortunately the events of the year made him seriously injured and dying, if it wasn't for the immortal's action, I am afraid that his soul would have returned to the ancestral hall.

But even if the immortal made a move, it was just to save his life, after so many years, his strength had only recovered three or four percent, barely reaching the strength of the third order of the transformation realm, which made this senior feel very uncomfortable, he had a place in the palace of the royal capital Chen back then, and he had been reduced to this Banyan City to recuperate for many years, and he had become a half-wasted person.

Chen Xian's affairs in Rongcheng, except for Chen Quan and a few cronies of the Chen family in Rongcheng, others don't know, Chen Xian originally thought that he would just recuperate to death like this, what kind of storms can there be in this Rongcheng, every day in the backyard of Chen's mansion is plain and bland, from time to time to write a word, raising turtles, is his biggest hobby now.

I never thought that the goods of the Chen family were intercepted recently, which is a very big insult to the Chen family, although this matter has not yet spread, and the party concerned has also been warned by Chen Quan with his life not to spread the matter, but after all, there is no impermeable wall, this matter will spread in Rongcheng sooner or later, giving people a handle, how to deter outsiders from the prestige of the Chen family in the future, must find out the thief.

For this reason, Chen Xian, who was originally unable to recuperate, walked out of the backyard for the first time and sat with Chen Quan.

"Chen Quan, there is the strength in Rongcheng who dares to attack us, the most likely is the Nawanshun Ma clan first, but the younger brother of Ma Quanyi, the steward of Nama Mansion, has just died tragically, so he will attack us, it is somewhat impossible, although there is a slight possibility that it is to take advantage of the chaos to rob, but I don't believe they will be so stupid"

"What do you say?" Chen Xian's voice paused, and his dark eyes looked at Chen Quan.

"What the elders said is very true, and the younger generations also think so, although the Ma family and us have had some small frictions in Rongcheng for many years, there has never been a major dispute, and it is unlikely that the Ma family will provoke us as soon as a tragedy occurs, and the younger generations suspect that someone is deliberately secretly arching the fire, and take this opportunity to want us to have a conflict with the Ma family" Chen Quan respectfully analyzed.

"Hmph, it's a good thing to lead the water to the east" Chen Xian's eyes flashed with a glimmer of essence, and he said coldly

"This wishful thinking is all over the place, the Ma family's tragedy is rumored to be done by us, more or less it will be passed into some into the Ma Mansion, if the Ma Mansion steward is not sober because of resentment, it is also possible to retaliate against us" Chen Quan analyzed again, he thought that the rumors outside were all over the place, maybe it did interfere with the judgment of the people in the Ma Mansion, to retaliate against their Chen family.

"There is some truth in what you said, but I hope it is not, if the steward of the Ma Mansion is so stupid, it means that the descendants of the Ma family are really useless," Chen Xian said lightly.

Chen Quan raised his hand to pour tea for Chen Xian, and said again, "Changyuan Liu, the shopkeeper of the fragrant building, Liu Yongxi, is a deep-minded person, but he has always kept a low profile and never clashed with us, I don't know if it is possible that he did it."

"Changyuan Liu, hehe, dogs that can bite don't bark" Chen Xian took a sip of the teacup and said in a tone that was not salty or light. Chen Quan already knew what this elder meant, it seemed that he thought that Changyuan Liu's suspicion was the greatest, with his former identity, as well as the strength of the peak of the realm, his judgment would be far stronger than his own, Chen Quan's eyes drooped slightly, and he picked up the teapot to renew the tea for Chen Xian, but he had a plan in his heart.

......

In another mansion, the main hall, the same luxurious decoration, carved lacquered jade railing, green bottle sitting on mahogany, fine furnishings, the ground is covered with a splendid fine velvet carpet, on the main seat sits a heroic yellow fir woman with a heroic eyebrows, in front of the woman stands an old man with white hair, the old man is not restrained in front of the woman.

After he entered the main hall, he walked straight to the woman and spoke in a low voice.

"Quan Yi, I went to secretly learn about the recent situation of the Liu family, the group of people who had a conflict with Quan You did not come out after returning to Xiangmanlou, no one found them leaving the guest room on the night of the incident, and the next day these people went to Shenshui Lane to visit the daughters of the Liu family, and there was nothing abnormal"

"Then Liu Yongxi is even more silent, do you want your aunt to come back, have you told you about the situation in the Chen Mansion?" The old man asked.

"Uncle Qi, Aunt Xiang came back earlier, and said that the Chen Mansion didn't seem to know at all, but the Chen Mansion had some disputes with our Ma family over the pawnshop issue some time ago, and there were all the conflicts that occurred at the scene at that time" Ma Quanyi recalled what Ma Xiang had said and repeated it to the person in front of him.

"Pawnshop? Which pawnshop?" asked March, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked with some confusion.

"It's a newly opened pawnshop on Ba Street, all of you walked to Ba Street that day, and saw that the Chen family had opened a new pawnshop and walked in to take a look, and saw our Ma family's jade pendant displayed inside, so there was a conflict with a few people in the shop, all of them came back and didn't mention it, and we don't know" Ma Quanyi carefully retold what Ma wanted to say.

"Just because of this little thing, you won't kill people to vent your anger," Ma Qi pondered, and asked suspiciously, "When the conflict occurred, what exactly happened, did you want your aunt to find out?" ”

"It is said that when there was a conflict at that time, he spoke very hard, saying that the jade pendant of our Ma family must be taken back, and the shopkeeper of the pawnshop said that since it had fallen into their Chen family, it was naturally the Chen family's thing, and this sentence angered Quanyou, and directly moved against the shopkeeper, and said that he would kill them" When Ma Quanyi said this, his willow eyebrows were furrowed, obviously helpless about his younger brother's ability to cause trouble.

But now that the person is dead, it is unintentional to say anything, only to blame himself for being busy and negligent in his younger brother's discipline.

"Hey, causing trouble outside and setting himself on fire, he is so sharp, it's not impossible to provoke the Chen family to do it secretly" Ma Qi sighed lightly, and said with the same ugly face.

"Then the Liu family, Uncle Qi, do you think it could be their black hand? Because I heard that a few days ago, there was a conflict between Quan You and the Liu family's pawnshop, and I slapped the pawnshop shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper said in public that all of them were looking for death, I think it is possible that the Liu family held a grudge and made a black hand" Ma Quanyi remembered that Ma Quanyou had gone to Liu's pawnshop a few days ago to cause trouble, so he mentioned it in passing.
