Chapter 166: The bottom of the kettle draws salaries, and the layout is chaotic

The night was destined to be unpeaceful, with searching soldiers everywhere on the streets, and the sound of iron hooves mixed with shouting and scolding, filling Qingyan Castle with the smell of blood.

The entire 1.8 million taels of silver are owned for himself, and for Xiao Yao, who loves money, it is simply beautiful to the sky.

Some people are happy, some people are worried, when Xu Jinsong learned that the vault was stolen and almost vomited blood, he hurriedly rushed to the vault to check the situation, and lost one-third of his savings for more than ten years.

After calming down, Xu Jinsong also discovered something abnormal, he really couldn't figure out how the thieves transferred more than a dozen heavy boxes of silver?

Thinking of this, Xu Jinsong deduced that it was very likely that there was a traitor and a thief who stole the silver, otherwise, it would never have been possible to leave even one or two pieces of silver for himself.

As a result of this investigation, some loyal soldiers and servants were imprisoned in cells, questioned, beaten, and tried, but fortunately survived, and the unfortunate ones died directly inside.

While thoroughly investigating the interior, Xu Jinsong ordered to start arresting the members of the Black Tiger Gang, and the biggest suspect in his heart was Qin Hu who secretly bought the insiders and stole the silver.

At the beginning of the early morning arrest operation, Qin Hu was asleep holding the beauty, and was awakened by the soldiers who broke into the door, and before he could come back to his senses, he received a few big slaps on the cheek, and then he was trapped and escorted to the commander's mansion.

"Damn, it was more than expected. ”

Seeing Qin Hu being arrested, Xiao Yao, who was standing across the street, frowned.

It seems that Xu Jinsong is getting closer and closer to death. Ling Du smiled.

Frowning, Xiao Yao said worriedly: "I'm afraid that Qin Hu won't be able to stand the torture and tell the story, and then everything we have done will be wasted." ”

"It's dark, I'm afraid of hair, the little tiger doesn't know about the theft of the vault, besides, I don't believe that Xu Jinsong dares to do anything to him, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, not to mention that he is the brother-in-law of the city lord. Ling Du said disapprerovingly.

"Let's hope he'll get through it. Sighing, Xiao Yao said helplessly.

"The army of bandits has already left the city, are you ready to do it at any time?" Ling Du asked.

"When Brother Zhou comes back, we will act. Xiao Yao said.

Blinking his eyes, Ling Du smiled: "It seems that Brother Zhou is your real hole card." ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Xiao Yao said: "It's not easy to conquer the two battalions of soldiers, I don't dare to make a rash move without being completely sure." ”

......

in the hall.

"I have decided to let you and Ling Fei'er have a wedding in three days. Xu Jinsong said in a deep voice.

Xu Bao looked at his father in astonishment, and said in disbelief: "Now that there is such a big thing in the family, why did my father choose to let us get married at this time?"

"It's too late, now that we are already being targeted by the city lord, especially the matter of the Ling family's money bank, he will definitely make a big fuss, rather than this, it is better to get married as soon as possible so that he can't find a reason to say that we are stealing the money bank. Squinting slightly, Xu Jinsong gritted his teeth and said.

"What should Qin Hu do?" asked Xu Bao.

"On the grounds of disturbing the peace, he was temporarily detained, and when the wedding was over, I was slowly cleaning him up. Xu Jinsong said.

Frowning, Xu Bao said worriedly: "Keeping Qin Hu in prison is a trivial matter, and I'm afraid it won't be easy for the city lord to explain." ”

"He is still counting on us to suppress the bandits, and he does not dare to meddle in this matter. Xu Jinsong said coldly.

"Could it be that his father really worked so hard for him?" asked Xu Bao.

"Hmph, think beautifully, the two battalions of soldiers sent out are just pretending, and after half a month, I will find an excuse to transfer the troops back, without them by my side, I always feel unreliable. Xu Jinsong said in a deep voice.

"Father has not slept all night, let's go and rest first, and I will go to the cell now to continue the investigation of the theft of the silver. Xu Bao said.

"Remember, don't torture Qin Hu yet, focus on those Black Tiger Gang members. Xu Jinsong instructed.

Nodding, Xu Bao turned to leave.

"Huang Sheng, if you want to defeat me, then let's see. Xu Jinsong muttered to himself.

......

The news of Xu Bao and Ling Fei'er's wedding spread throughout Qingyan City, and the people were talking about it and feeling sad for the Ling family, I have to say that this kind of robbery and robbery of wealth and lust can only be done shamelessly.

When Xiao Yao learned the news, his heart began to become anxious, according to expectations, Brother Zhou should have returned to Qingyan City a long time ago, but there was no news at all.

"The blind cat met the dead mouse, and it was really ruthless enough to come to the bottom of the kettle at this time, it seems that our layout is going to change. Touching his smooth chin, Ling Du said thoughtfully.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yao said lightly: "Now that we have changed from active to passive, it is indeed troublesome, I think it's time to meet with the city lord." ”

Stunned, Ling Du said worriedly: "Are you in a bit of a hurry to do this, once the city lord knows that the hole cards he relies on are the two of us, will he change his mind and continue to be Xu Jinsong's puppet?"

"Qin Hu was arrested, if I don't show up to give him a reassuring pill, I will definitely get bad things. Xiao Yao said helplessly.

"Look at your monkey anxious look, as for fighting so hard?" Ling Du asked.

"Isn't it?" Xiao Yao asked rhetorically.

"Hey, there's a knife on the head of the color word, I'm optimistic about you, come on!" Ling Du said while squatting on the ground and teasing Xiao Bai.

"By the way, there's a sarcoma in the little white throat, and you have nothing to rub it, it will increase the relationship between you. ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yao's figure flashed and left the room.

"Wow~"

"Ah...... My ears,!"

Xiao Yao left the inn and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

Standing outside the door and waiting for a while, the guards let him in, and Xiao Yao bypassed the two courtyards and came to the study under the guidance of the servants.

At this time, the city lord Huang Shan was sitting on a chair and closing his eyes to recuperate, even if Xiao Yao was standing in front of him, he had no intention of opening it.

For the city lord in front of him, who had a slightly scholarly temperament, Xiao Yao couldn't smile bitterly, no wonder Qingyan City let him be in charge so badly, just rely on the world's worries, I don't worry, this careless appearance can make people angry to death.

"I heard the servant say that Qin Hu sent you to see me, let's say, what's the matter?" Huang Shan closed his eyes and said.

"Ahem...... Master Tiger asked me to ask you, is the plan still going on?" Xiao Yao said lightly.

"It seems that he is treated well in the Commander's Mansion, and he can still care about things outside. Huang Shan sneered.

"Master Tiger is tortured in his cell, but he has always been worried about you. Xiao Yao said.

"Hmph, doesn't he have a master behind him, and now I'm worried that I have a fart, a bunch of wine bags and rice bags. Slowly opening his eyes, Huang Shan said angrily.

Pulling a chair and sitting down, Xiao Yao smiled and said, "I'm curious, how are you better than wine bags and rice bags?"
