Chapter 53: Find the Mansion
The little guy didn't give in, before coming, Xu Hai had an order not to allow idle people outside to break into his mansion.
No one can do it.
"Official, don't be embarrassed, our house hasn't been opened since it closed in the afternoon, no, you only opened it for you after you came, there can't be any thieves here, isn't it your mistake?"
The little guy tried to guide people elsewhere.
The officers and soldiers did not accept this, they were dissatisfied, and angrily reprimanded, "This is a felony wanted by the imperial court, if you deliberately stop it, but you deliberately cover it up, if this matter reaches the ears of those adults, at least it will make you take a beating, or at worst, the mansion behind you may be completely overthrown." ”
The little guy hesitated, and this sudden incident caught him off guard.
However, he didn't dare to disobey Xu Hai's intentions.
Xu Hai heard the noise outside, couldn't help but step forward, and asked coldly, "Why is it noisy here?" Don't let people sleep at night? ”
The door opened halfway, revealing Xu Hai's impatient look.
The officers and soldiers standing at the front spotted the visitor, and for a moment they were distracted, and this person looked like the governor.
However, a closer look is different.
Even if he is not the governor, the other party must have a relationship with the governor.
Things are getting trickier.
However, the news of the theft of the saint finally came out, and if it was not investigated well at this time, they would not have good fruits to eat.
"This young master, we are acting on orders, tonight there is a thief saint suddenly appeared, for the safety of the people, we came here to search, just now the thief saint disappeared around here, we found the house when we looked for it, I hope you can cooperate." The lead man on horseback spoke.
Xu Hai knew very well that there was Xiao Sakura hidden in the house, and once these people met Xiao Sakura, it would definitely not end well.
Xu Hai directly refused, "There is no one you are looking for here, you can go elsewhere and continue to look for it, don't come to my house to disturb me to sleep." ”
Xu Hai wanted to leave, but those officers and soldiers were not willing to leave like this.
"Young Master, this matter can't be left to you." With that, they prepared to break in.
Xu Hai has always been used to being held, and many people want to sell him a few thin noodles, and suddenly he was embarrassed by these officers and soldiers, and he was suddenly unhappy.
"Are you finished? I was derelict in my duty and couldn't find the thief, so I went mad in my house? Do you think the governor's younger brother is easy to bully? Xu Hai suddenly raised his voice and deliberately exposed his identity.
For a while, the officers and soldiers at the door did not answer.
If you offend the person in front of you, it is equivalent to offending the governor.
But they handled the case impartially, if the thief was really hiding in the mansion, they lost this opportunity, and the next time they wanted to arrest someone, it would definitely be difficult to climb to the sky.
Moreover, when they return empty-handed, they will definitely be punished.
Just as they were hesitating, someone at the back of the crowd shouted, "Is the governor using his official position to oppress people?" What if it gets in the way of arresting, even the governor? ”
This voice immediately aroused Xu Hai's dissatisfaction, and it was not easy for others to belittle Xu Zhiyao.
"Who said that? Stand up for me! Xu Hai asked coldly.
But no one took the initiative to step forward, and there was no sound around.
At this time, Xu Zhiyao's carriage had already arrived, and the coachman said to the people in the sedan chair, "My lord, we have arrived." ”
Xu Zhiyao closed his eyes to digest all this, his appearance in front of the officers and soldiers in the middle of the night would definitely arouse the curiosity of many people.
However, he has already collided head-on, and he can't hide at all.
It can only be solved head-on.
"Lord Governor?"
"Lord Governor!"
The officers and soldiers knelt on the ground, Xu Hai seemed to see the backer, took the initiative to meet him, and couldn't help but say the things he just faced one by one, "Brother, these people want to break into my mansion at night, saying that there is some thief in my mansion, this is obviously nonsense, and they deliberately planted blame." ”
The leading officers and soldiers immediately explained, "No, no, no, misunderstanding, all this is a misunderstanding, we didn't mean it, we just suspected that the thief might be lurking nearby, but the young master didn't know it at all." ”
Xu Hai still didn't give up, "Brother, don't listen to their nonsense, they were murderous just now, and they didn't come to discuss with me at all, but deliberately came to the door to pour dirty water on me." ”
Xu Hai raised his chin high at the leading man not far away, and there was a provocation in his eyes that could not be hidden.
The man had an idea and asked directly, "Why did the Governor appear here so late?" Could it be that the theft of saints has already disturbed the adults? ”
Xu Zhiyao didn't expect to be countered by the army, but he couldn't be coaxed at this time.
Xu Hai immediately pointed at the other party's nose and scolded angrily, "What are you, my brother can go wherever he wants, when is it his turn to report to you?" ”
"Slap", a slap hit Xu Hai in the face.
Xu Hai covered his aching cheeks and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, he was obviously speaking for Xu Zhiyao, why was he beaten instead?
"Brother? Why are you hitting me? ”
"The other party is talking to me, it's not your turn to interject on the side, there is no place for you to talk here, hurry up and get out of the way for me." A few words overturned Xu Hai's face.
Several people couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
Xu Haijue's own face was torn apart and thrown on the ground, he was unwilling, turned around and left angrily.
"My brother has been pampered and raised by me since he was a child, and he has a willful personality, I hope I don't disagree with you." Xu Zhiyao has the posture of a humble son, but there is little bookish atmosphere on his body, and more of some city-like atmosphere.
The others listened to Xu Zhiyao's words, and they were much more satisfied.
However, the man in the lead did not forget the question just now, and continued to ask, "The Lord Governor came here at night to steal the saint?" ”
He skillfully used the night interview, once Xu Zhiyao did not refute, it was equivalent to admitting that he knew about it before.
Xu Zhiyao vigilantly discovered the trap in his words, and he naturally would not fall into the trap of the other party.
"This official did not visit at night, but heard that the theft of the saint would affect the people, and after thinking about it for a long time, he felt that he could not sit still, so he took the initiative to come and help, and there was no night visit, but he really rushed over for the sake of the people."
The leading man immediately changed the topic, "The governor is worried about the people, and it is really a blessing for the people to think about the people. ”
Xu Zhiyaojue's time was almost up, and he took the initiative to invite people into the house.
"You are worried that there are uninvited guests hidden in my brother's mansion, you can go into the mansion to check it carefully, and don't miss any of it."
