Chapter 60: The Chamberlain

While everyone was chatting, the fire was gradually extinguished, and looking at the Fu Mansion where the fire was gradually fading, the eyes of the women seemed to show a little disappointment.

"It's going to be extinguished so soon, it's boring, go back to sleep."

"Hey, I'll play mahjong tomorrow."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow, ha, I'm trapped."

……

A moment later, at the door of the lively Fu Mansion, only Chang Sheng and the three of them were messy in the wind, and even the officers and soldiers were gone.

"Let's go back too."

Zhou Xi'er proposed.

The three of them also returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Inside the Fu Mansion, the gray-faced people were kneeling on the ground, silent one by one.

In front of him was Fu Pingsheng, who was pale, and he looked at the pile of money and the blackened iron basin in front of him, and his tone was cold

"Say, who bought these for the eldest lady."

"Bang!"

He kicked over the iron basin, which frightened everyone pale, but no one dared to speak.

"Daddy."

At this moment, Miss Fu walked over, only to see that her cold face was stained with a little black fly ash, but she looked a little playful.

When Fu Pingsheng saw her coming, his attitude took a big turn, and he hurriedly walked up to help her.

"Oh, Yuzhu, you have a good rest, don't come out."

Fu Yuzhu looked at Fu Pingsheng with a smile and didn't say a word, until Fu Pingsheng felt a little numb behind him, and finally avoided Fu Yuzhu's eyes.

"Rain Bamboo ......"

There was silence for a long time, and he couldn't say anything.

Fu Yuzhu pulled away the hand he was holding and turned to leave

"It has nothing to do with them, so why should you be angry with them?"

Fu Pingsheng looked at Fu Yuzhu who was leaving, wanted to speak and stopped, and in the end, he sighed again and waved his hand

"Let's go down."

The subordinates fled the scene as if they had been granted amnesty.

After everyone left, Fu Pingsheng stood alone and muttered to himself

"I will not be angry with them, and you will not even say a word to me."

After a stick of incense, Chang Sheng and the three returned to the house, and after such a toss back and forth, the three of them couldn't sleep anymore, so they simply sat in the courtyard and chatted.

Yan Sihai looked directly at Zhou Xi'er, staring at Zhou Xi'er uncomfortably.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhou Xier said.

Yan Sihai's eyes suddenly became more aggressive, slapped the table, pointed at Zhou Xi'er, and drank

"Say! Who are you, and why is that man going to kill you? ”

Chang Sheng was stunned, didn't that person come to kidnap the child, how did he become a killer?

Zhou Xi'er also looked innocent.

"How do I know that I have no grievances with that man, and he suddenly came to kill me, why did you question me instead?"

Yan Sihai sneered, looked at Chang Sheng's confused expression, and said

"Sheng Wazi, you and I have seen that sword, he could have stabbed you with a sword, but he avoided it, why is this?"

Chang Sheng looked at the flower pot in his hand and said

"What's so strange about this, the sword of the Tiger Tower also wanted to kill me, but it was given to me by this flower......"

When she said this, her eyes suddenly lit up

"Yes, why did that man deliberately avoid me, do you ......?"

Yan Sihai took over

"This can only show that the black shadow knows that he can't kill you, otherwise, why should he avoid you and kill you with a sword, wouldn't it be easier to enter the house and rob people?"

Chang Sheng exclaimed

"Twelfth floor! He's the man on the twelfth floor! ”

Yan Sihai sneered and looked at Zhou Xi'er

"Why did the people on the twelfth floor kill you?"

Chang Sheng looked at Zhou Xi'er gently and said softly

"Xi'er, you tell my sister what happened."

Zhou Xi'er's face changed uncertainly, and she seemed to be hesitating.

Yan Sihai was furious and directly grabbed Zhou Xi'er's collar.

"Let go of me!"

Zhou Xi'er broke Yan Sihai's hand hard, but she couldn't break it alive.

Yan Sihai shouted

"If you want to die yourself, don't drag us into the water, we are here to do business, not to be your savior!"

Zhou Xi'er was stunned for a moment, then let go of her hand, her expression darkened, and her whole person was like a deflated ball, let Yan Sihai pull it.

"Old Yan."

Chang Sheng drank Yan Sihai, Yan Sihai suddenly sent his hand, and Zhou Xi'er sat on the table.

After a long while, Zhou Xi'er finally spoke

"I did lie to you, that madman is not my father."

Yan Sihai snorted

"We've known that for a long time."

Zhou Xi'er lowered her head, as if she didn't dare to look at Chang Sheng

"My grandfather does work in a large family, my family has been a farmer for generations, and finally came out of my grandfather a scholar, but unfortunately my grandfather was unlucky, he was not admitted to the Jinshi, and he could only find an errand to do in a large family, and my father was not a material for studying, so he could only go back to his old profession, although our family was not rich, but with the salary sent by my grandfather and the farmland at home, I was not hungry."

Zhou Xi'er's tone began to become rapid, and she seemed to be emotional

"But a few days ago, the news of my grandfather's death suddenly came out of the city, and then, the next day, a group of men in black suddenly broke into my house, and kept asking my father and mother to hand over things, but my father and mother couldn't hand it over, and they were going to kill our family......"

"And then?"

Chang Sheng asked with concern.

A few sobs came out of Zhou Xi'er's mouth

"Later...... My dad used his body to stop the knives of those bad guys, and I took the opportunity to run out of the yard, trying to find someone to save my dad, but found ......"

"As soon as I ran out of the house, I found that the whole village had been killed!"

"Corpses all over the ground, all covered in blood ......"

"I know that those people refuse to let me go, I can only run desperately, I have never been out of the village, I only know that my grandfather is working in Qingzhou, I can only flee to Qingzhou, my grandfather's letter mentioned Qingzhou, the only place I am familiar with is Qingzhou."

Yan Sihai frowned

"How did one of your kids escape from that group of men in black?"

Zhou Xi'er sobbed and shook her head

"I don't know, I just kept running along the official road until I met you, and I saw you kill the killer, so I thought I would follow you and survive."

Chang Sheng listened to the story silently and was silent, and it wasn't until Yan Sihai patted her that she came back to her senses.

"Shengwazi, what's wrong?"

Yan Sihai asked.

Chang Sheng shook his head and yawned

"It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy, let's go back to sleep, I still have something to do tomorrow."

didn't wait for Yan Sihai to speak, and left on his own.

Yan Sihai pointed at Zhou Xi'er

"Then what is he going to do?"

saw Zhou Xi'er wipe away her tears cleanly, grimace at him with a smile, and then ran away.

Yan Sihai was annoyed

"Good boy, beg for a beating!"

A pebble appeared in his hand.

"Bang!"

smacked Zhou Xi'er on the buttocks.

"Ugh!"

Zhou Xi'er touched her ass viciously and ran faster.

Yan Sihai chuckled lightly and said to himself

"Stinky boy, if it weren't for you sacrificing your life to save us, I wouldn't have let you go so easily, old man."

April 25th, early in the morning.

Chang Sheng and the three of them were woken up by a noisy knock on the door.

"Boom!" ……

"Who!"

Yan Sihai shouted irritably, pushed open the door, but was stunned by the scene in front of him.

A large crowd blocked the gate, and they all knelt outside the door, kowtowing and crying.

"Lord of the city, please be the master for us!"

Chang Sheng walked out, and when he saw this scene, he hurriedly helped up several old people and ladies led by him.

"What's the matter, old man? Get up and talk. ”

The old lady in the lead looked sad and shouted

"Lord of the city, please save my grandson!"

Behind him, the others followed suit.

"Lord of the city, please save our children."

Only then did Chang Sheng understand that this was probably the family of the kidnapped boy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the little sister assures you that she will definitely find out about this matter."

At the moment, Chang Sheng could only appease everyone like this.

At this time, a very discordant voice appeared in the crowd.

"Forget it, you officials protect each other, how can you find out the truth!"

Yan Sihai's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw the man who was talking, and took him out.

"Officials protect each other? It's just a matter of investigating the case, do you need the protection of the officials, come on, come on, you should explain it clearly to the old man today. ”

Seeing that Yan Sihai had great powers and good kung fu, the man immediately panicked, his eyes fluttered, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Chang Sheng saw that Yan Sihai was vicious, gave him a blank look, and motioned for him to let go of the man.

But I saw that the man was about thirty years old, dressed in coarse clothes, and he was also from a poor family.

"Don't be afraid of this big brother, my housekeeper has a bad temper, I will discipline him well, I don't know what to call the eldest brother."

Chang Sheng looked at the man with a smile, her voice was soft, which suddenly made the man a lot more relaxed.

Xu was used to being bullied, and the man lowered his head, not daring to look up at Chang Sheng.

"Tell the city lord, the villain's name is Liu Ping, and he is a hawker in the east of the city."

Chang Sheng said

"Why do you say that officials protect each other?"

Liu Ping heard Chang Sheng ask about this, so he was filled with righteous indignation, he suddenly straightened his waist, looked directly at Chang Sheng, pointed to an official mansion in the distance with trembling hands, and said excitedly

"Lord of the city, this child abduction and trafficking case, in the final analysis, is not the ghost made by the military department Shangshu's house, the Taiyang Mansion said that it was investigated, but after a long time of investigation, nothing was found, everyone knows that there is a ghost in the Fu family, even his daughter was hit by evil a year ago, this child abduction and trafficking case also started a year ago, how can you say that there is such a coincidental thing, how can this matter be inseparable from the military department Shangshu's family, but the Taiyang Mansion has investigated the Shangshu Mansion for a month, but nothing has been found out, city lord, you say, Are they officials protecting each other? ”

Chang Sheng and Yan Sihai looked at each other, can there be such outrageous speculation?

But before they could speak, the rest of the people chimed in

"That's it, the military department Shangshu probably did too much bad things, and was entangled by ghosts, but it hurt us!"

Chang Sheng and Yan Sihai were speechless for a while, and they couldn't communicate with them anymore, so Chang Sheng had no choice but to speak

"Folks, my little sister will definitely give you justice, folks, please go back today."

It took them half an hour to finally send everyone away, but before they could catch their breath, a sedan chair came to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Chang Sheng looked at the sedan chair suspiciously, not knowing who came.

I saw that in the sedan chair, a handsome young man slowly walked out, dressed in white, holding a jade fan, high-spirited, chic and dignified.

"Hello, Lord Castle."

The handsome young man's eyebrows showed a strong sense of confidence, and his tone was as warm as the jade folding fan in his hand, and at first glance he was a person with extremely high self-cultivation.

"You are?"

Chang Sheng asked.

The young man's eyes were smiling, and there seemed to be a starry light in his bright eyes.

"Under Li Qingchou, my father's criminal department is still in the book, and Li Qingshu is in the book."

Chang Sheng was surprised, she never thought of why this Li Gongzi would find her.

"Li Gongzi, please come in."

After a moment of surprise, Chang Sheng regained his composure, waved his hand lightly, and invited him into the mansion.

But on the other side, Chang Sheng felt Yan Sihai gently pull the corner of her clothes, she looked back at Yan Sihai, and saw that Yan Sihai secretly gave her a look.

Chang Sheng's eyes rolled, and he instantly understood his intentions and nodded slightly.

"Xi'er, take Gongzi Li to the lobby."

Zhou Xi'er nodded and led Li Qingchou into the mansion.

Immediately, Chang Sheng also slowly walked into the mansion, and Yan Sihai's eyes were clear, and he quickly followed the crowd who had just left in the distance towards Taiyang Road.

If we want to investigate the disappearance of children, we must start with these people's homes.

I saw that after those crowds left Taiyang Road, they dispersed one after another, and it seemed that they had gone back to their respective homes.

Yan Sihai saw that Liu Ping was walking in the direction of the east of the city, thought for a while, and followed, but just in case, he still took out a small bottle, and from the small bottle, a few flying insects flew out, and after seeing those flying insects following several other households, he was relieved to follow Liu Ping.

He followed a few streets and came to a small alley, and in the narrow alley, Liuping walked into a low house.

Yan Sihai followed to the door and jumped on the roof lightly, although his martial arts skills were not high, but the light skills used to escape were well practiced.

He crept on the green tiles of the roof, for fear of making too much noise and disturbing the people in the house.

All I could hear was the cry of a woman coming out of the house

"Woooooooooooooooooo

Liu Ping's voice sounded at the same time, and he seemed to be a little irritable

"Cry, cry, cry! What's the use of crying, can crying bring the child back to cry! ”

The woman's cry faded and turned into a sob

"Then you go to the city lord today, what can the city lord do?"

When Liu Ping heard this, he became even more angry

"What can be done, it's not just a few perfunctory words to us, I think the city lord is just here to go through the motions, maybe he will leave in a few days."

The woman said again

"You didn't tell the lord about that?"

As he spoke, there was a sudden sound in the room, "Bang! Immediately after, Liu Ping howled in pain.

"What are you hitting me for!"

The woman scolded

"Why didn't you tell the lord of the castle?"

Liu Ping said angrily

"What do you want me to say? Tell her that the gangster dropped a token in our house? Don't you want to live anymore, really show her this token, can we still see the sun tomorrow? ”

"Boom!"

Yan Sihai directly stepped on the roof and entered the house, startling the two of them.

"What people!"

The woman screamed in horror.

Liu Ping looked at Yan Sihai, and immediately recognized him as the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, and his lips were dry.

"You, why are you here?"

Yan Sihai smiled gloomily

"Don't be afraid, I don't have any ill intentions here, I just want that token."

Liu Ping's forehead was already soaked with cold sweat, his eyes drifted around, and he said tremblingly

"What token, I don't know."

Yan Sihai was still smiling, but in the eyes of Liu Ping and the others, Yan Sihai at this time looked like a complete old rascal.

I saw Yan Sihai smile and take out a poisonous tongue from his sleeve and gently caress its smooth skin.

"Of course, if you don't cooperate, I always have to ask them to play with my best friends."

Liu Ping was so frightened that he sat on the ground, and his hands couldn't help but support his body and move back.

The woman behind her was still a little sensible, and said hurriedly

"Yes, yes, yes! I'll bring it to you! ”

She hurriedly pulled Liu Ping's body, and after a while, she took out a golden token from her belt, walked cautiously in front of Yan Sihai, and handed the token to him.

"We can't read, and we don't know what this token is for, but judging by the quality, it should be used by large families."

Yan Sihai took the token, but saw two big characters on the token.

"Chamberlain."
