Su Zhuo and Hua Ping slowly walked into the door, looking left and right all the way, only to see that this mansion occupies a large area, with halls and pavilions everywhere, all of which are complete and exquisitely decorated. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn the garden, rockeries and strange stones, pavilions and water pavilions are unique. The two of them looked at each other while walking, and they were a little lost in a trance.

Hua Ping couldn't help but whisper: "This is really a scene only found in a rich family!"

Su Zhuo chuckled lightly and said, "Only people like you who have no concentration, when they see this prosperous world, they will lose their nature!" said and walked forward with his hands behind his back.

Hua Ping was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "Say it as if you are a saint......"

As the two were talking, an old slave came to them, bowed down and said, "Two adults, the master is waiting in the flower hall." Come with me, two!" said and led the way.

Su Zhuo and Huaping followed him for a short time, and then came to the flower hall. There was a person sitting on the main seat in the hall, in his forties, with an elegant appearance, presumably the owner Cao Liyi.

Su Zhuo and Hua Ping took off their coats and hats at the door and stepped into the house. The man got up and smiled, "Please sit down! Cao De, serve tea!"

A few people sat down, and Cao Liyi asked, "Liu Zhutou, I don't know what the two of you are doing to find us?"

Su Zhuo saw the green jade ring on the thumb of Cao Lili's right hand at a glance, and he was shocked, and secretly thought: "Sure enough, it's him!" He smiled faintly and said, "That's the case, Lord Cao." The two of us are from the Yamen of Chang'an Right Street. We traced a habitual thief all the way from Chang'an, but we never caught anyone. A few days ago, I accidentally found this habitual thief's lair, and found a batch of stolen goods, including a letter, which seemed to be Lord Cao's ......"

As soon as Cao Liyi heard this, the hand holding the teacup suddenly put down, and pretended to be indifferent: "Oh, is it? But the official didn't have anything stolen?"

Hua Ping was stunned, and he was almost deceived by him. Su Zhuo secretly sneered, got up and said, "Oh, it seems that the letter is not Lord Cao's." It was we who took the liberty to disturb us, forgive our sins, and take our leave!"

Cao Liyi got up and said, "Hey, why did Liu Zhutou just sit down and leave! You have worked hard all the way, you must use some wine and food in the house." The letter that Liu Zhutou said just now...... Why don't you show me, in case I know who lost it, I can give you two some clues!"

Su Zhuo smiled, sat down again, and said, "Since that's the case, then let's sit down for a while?"

Cao Liyi unfolded it, and sure enough, it was his stolen letter, his face changed slightly, he didn't know what he was thinking, but his two eyes were full of suspicion, staring at Su Zhuo and Hua Ping, as if he was afraid that they had found out something.

As soon as Su Zhuo saw him with such a look, he was once again convinced that his guess was correct. But he remained silent, got up and approached Cao Liyi, and said softly: "Lord Cao, you have to take a closer look! According to me, there seems to be something inside this letter, if the person who lost the letter can't find it, I don't know how anxious he should be......

Cao Liyi glanced at Su Zhuo with deep meaning, and then he understood that he had something to say. Su Zhuo clearly knew that this letter was his own, and he didn't seem to plan to check it out, was this a gesture of goodwill to himself?

Cao Liyi understood the way of officialdom, snorted, put the letter on the table, and pressed it with his hand, clearly meaning not to return it to Su Zhuo. He smiled: "If I remember who lost this letter when I lost it, I must tell the two of you as soon as possible to help you solve the case as soon as possible." I think the two of them are very capable and willing to endure hardships, and they will definitely do something in the future. I must stay for two drinks today, give them to my friends, and I will be brothers in the future!"

Su Zhuo laughed and said, "Thanks to Lord Cao's promotion, then we might as well be respectful!"

Cao Liyi talked with them very happily, as if they were really good friends. Su Zhuo and Hua Ping said goodbye to him, and it was already afternoon. Hua Ping followed Su Zhuo out of the side hall and asked in a low voice: "What kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd? Let's come here just to make friends with this surnamed Cao? You also handed him the letter that Yan'er exchanged for his life?"

Su Zhuo said as he walked: "Don't use that letter as bait, how can he call us brothers and sisters so easily? Don't worry, we will find out soon!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden thunder in the air, and the rain was pouring down, getting heavier and heavier. The sky is getting darker and darker, and it doesn't look like an afternoon. Su Zhuo glanced at the sky, sighed deeply, and said to himself: "Is it really going to cause a natural and man-made disaster......

As soon as the two of them left the house, they saw a post station official running in a panic. Su Zhuo glanced at the back of the little official, and an ominous feeling enveloped his heart, but he didn't know why for a while. He said softly: "It's raining so hard, let's take shelter in the opposite teahouse first!"

Hua Ping nodded: "It's okay, but I don't know ...... Miss Yan."

Su Zhuo entered the teahouse across the street and went directly to the second floor. There was not a single guest in the house, and Dr. Tea had no intention of entertaining the two, so he served two cups of tea and disappeared.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the road was already a small river. The two of them sat for most of the hour, when suddenly a group of sergeants appeared on the street and ran in unison towards the northern city. Su Zhuo was secretly shocked: "Could it really be that something happened!"

Before he could think about it, he only heard Yan Linglong's voice sounding at the top of the stairs: "You guys are really here!

Su and Hua asked in unison: "What's wrong!"

Yan Linglong didn't have time to catch her breath and said, "I heard the news from Beicheng just now, and many people are coming to Licheng. I'm afraid ......" she paused, not daring to express her guess for a moment.

Hua Ping blurted out, "I'm afraid of what?"

Su Zhuo's heart was shocked, and he already understood what Yan Linglong didn't say. He sighed softly: "I'm afraid the Yellow River has burst......"

Hua Ping was taken aback and said: "How is it possible? The Yellow River has been controlling the water and building embankments and dams since the beginning of the year. How could it have rained for several days in a row, and it broke like this?"

Su Zhuo sighed softly: "This is the only way to ask Cao Lili...... The Yellow River is overflowing, stretching for thousands of miles, and I don't know how many people will be displaced and lose their lives......"

The sky became more and more gloomy, and the three people in the teahouse were out of breath. In an hour, the streets were already filled with muddy water. People on lower terrain can only stand knee-deep in the water and try their best to salvage valuable things at home. The victims along the Yellow River rushed into the city in the blink of an eye, only to hear the distant people shouting and neighing, mourning all over the wilderness, and turning into a pot of porridge.

Yan Linglong was also out of idea for a while, and asked, "What now?"

Su Zhuo said in a deep voice: "The incident happened in a hurry, I think the state capital must not be prepared." The victims poured into the city, and if they did not have food and clothing, they would surely have suffered many deaths and injuries. Linglong, you feel that you have gathered the people of the Four Seas Alliance to open all the granaries of the high-ranking officials and wealthy families in Licheng City. Now I can't control your rules, save the eyes first. Warburg Pincus, you go and help, in case there is a riot. ”
