Chapter 434 - Forced to ask Liang Hong
Soon, Chi Zhongtian rode to the county office, and the officials at the door saw that it was Chi Zhongtian, so they greeted one after another.
"Is Master Hu there?" Chi Zhongtian pretended not to know where Hu Chuanhai had gone, and deliberately asked.
Several officials glanced at each other, and then said, "The county commander has something to do and has gone to another place." ”
"Oh, that's right, is the master there?" Chi Zhongtian then asked.
"Master is here, but he just went out. ”
Seeing that the master was not there, Chi Zhongtian had no choice but to ask with a tentative attitude: "Have you ever seen the Marquis of Chengqi?"
At this time, a few officials came to understand, it turned out that they were also looking for the Marquis of Chengqi: "Master Chi, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion also came to find the Hou Ye just now, and he also came to find the Hou Ye, but we only saw the Hou Ye come to the county government a few days ago, but then we didn't know where to go." ”
Seeing that he couldn't find a result, Chi Zhongtian's heart moved, so he said, "Okay, I'm tired!"
After Chi Zhongtian left the county office, he went to the post house on horseback.
Outside the post house, I happened to meet Liu Yinghui who was about to go out, Liu Yinghui saw Chi Zhongtian and couldn't tell what it was like.
"Lord Liu!" Chi Zhongtian jumped off the horse and gave a salute.
Liu Yinghui smiled and saluted: "Master Chi, you are here, but what's the matter?"
He knew that if Chi Zhongtian was fine, he would never come to him.
"I want to ask your lordship, have you seen the Marquis of Chengqi in the last two days?" Chi Zhongtian asked.
"Master Hou, I didn't see it, I've been too busy these days, and I haven't had time to say hello, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Liu Yinghui didn't know, Chi Zhongtian said with some annoyance: "Just now, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion went to me and said that the Hou Ye left the Hou Mansion three days ago and has not come back until now. ”
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Liu Yinghui was also quite surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, I heard the housekeeper say that Master Hou followed Master Hu, but I went to the county government just now, and Lord Hu was not there at all, and I didn't know if I asked others. Chi Zhongtian continued.
"Well, this matter is not to be trivial, so let's do it, I have urgent matters to deal with now, and later, I will figure out what to do. Liu Yinghui said.
Chi Zhongtian could see that although Liu Yinghui said that he was in a hurry, he might not think so in his heart, they were people in the officialdom, and the friendship between them was very fragile, often a cup of tea and a bowl of wine could make a pair of good friends for more than ten years turn against each other.
"That's okay, I'll think of a way first, Lord Liu, farewell!" Seeing this, Chi Zhongtian didn't delay any longer, stepped on the horse and left.
As he walked, Chi Zhongtian suddenly grabbed the reins of his horse and stopped.
He suddenly thought, will this matter have anything to do with the broken water and Liang Hong?
Thinking of this, Chi Zhongtian didn't bother to think about it, he made up his mind and returned to the county office.
The official of the county government was strange when he saw him coming again, but he saw Chi Zhongtian hand over the horse to a servant, and then he hurried in.
"Chi Gongzi! The county government can't break in!" A government official hurriedly ran over and grabbed Chi Zhongtian.
Chi Zhongtian saw that he was dressed and still had weapons on his body, which was really inappropriate, so he said solemnly: "Oh, it's me who is rude, I'm a friend of Lord Hu, since Lord Hu is not here, I'll go visit his family." He said as he lowered his voice, meaning for everyone to hear.
The official laughed secretly, and quickly replied loudly: "Okay, then Chi Gongzi, please take care of yourself!"
Chi Zhongtian nodded at him, and after a gesture, he walked inside.
Although these officials didn't say much to Chi Zhongtian, they all understood that this young man was a hero, with strong martial arts and a prominent family background, of course, these were naturally revealed by Hu Chuanhai intentionally or unintentionally, and he also hinted that he and Chi Zhongtian were good friends, of course, this can only be hinted, not explicitly.
This is also the reason why the official saw that Chi Zhongtian was going to go in, and did not interrogate him carefully.
After entering, Chi Zhongtian first walked to the backyard and found that it was quiet, not like in the past, there were servants going back and forth.
After walking to the garden, Chi Zhongtian found Liang Hong sitting there drinking tea.
"Liang Gongzi, I see that you like to drink tea very much, every time I come here, you drink tea here. ”
Liang Hong was startled by this voice, quickly sat up, turned around, and saw that it was Chi Zhongtian, so he said angrily: "What are you doing here, this county government is also something you can trespass?"
Chi Zhongtian smiled, saw that there was no one left and right, and then walked over and said, "Liang Gongzi, have you ever seen the Marquis of Chengqi?"
Liang Hong shook his head and said with a smile: "No." ”
"So, what about the Broken Water Girl?"
"I don't know. ”
"Liang Gongzi, if you have seen the Marquis of Chengqi, please tell me by yourself, I don't want him to have anything to do with the old man. Although Chi Zhongtian's words seemed to be very kind, the gloomy tone made Liang Hong's heart tremble.
"Chi Zhongtian, who are you scaring about! Let me tell you, don't think I'm afraid of you, what's the use of your martial arts no matter how high you are? When I go back and enter the capital to face the saint, I will charge you with intending to murder me, I don't think you will have a place to cry when you cry!"
After Liang Hong finished speaking, he seemed to feel a bad breath.
Chi Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Then what if I don't let you go to face the saint?"
"Hmm, what do you mean by that?"
Liang Hong asked a little nervously.
"It's not interesting, I'm just talking casually, Liang Gongzi, you don't have to be nervous. Chi Zhongtian said.
"Chi Zhongtian, are you still scaring me? If you dare to hurt me, then the imperial court will send thousands of troops and horses to sweep you down, no matter how powerful you are, can you deal with thousands of troops and horses?"
"Liang Gongzi, I really can't deal with thousands of troops. Chi Zhongtian nodded and said.
Liang Hong smiled with satisfaction, and then stood up from the chair.
Before he could stand firm, Chi Zhongtian suddenly said again: "But!
This sentence almost frightened Liang Hong into a crooked chair, he steadied his mind, stood still and said, "What do you want to do!"
Chi Zhongtian smiled as he took out a broken sword from his cuff, and said in a low tone: "I don't want to do anything, I just think, if I kill you now, no one will know about it." ”
After speaking, Chi Zhongtian slowly walked forward step by step.
At this time, Liang Hong's hairs stood on end, and he began to regret that he shouldn't have humiliated Chi Zhongtian just now, because he remembered that the water was not around at this time, and he hadn't even appeared for almost two days, if Chi Zhongtian really wanted to kill him at this time, he would really die in vain!
