Chapter 278: Jiangnan is stormy
Chapter 278 Jiangnan is stormy.
The day dawned, and the wind blew and warmed.
There were just a dozen corpses left in the streets, some of them missing arms, some of them missing heads, and some of them were broken from their waists.
This scene was a bit miserable, so that the people who woke up in the morning couldn't help but want to vomit.
It's just that when everyone vomits, they are more interested in this fight, and everything about this fight comes out of the mouth of the innkeeper.
So much so that the small inn was full of guests, just to listen to the shopkeeper tell in detail about last night's fighting.
When the guests heard the highlights, they couldn't help but cheer, as if they were not listening to last night's fight, but listening to a story.
Last night, after killing people, Hua Lang and the others immediately left this small place, and then rushed to Tianchang County, while Yin Wuji returned to Huainan.
In the past two days, the entire Great Song Dynasty has not heard a single rumor, let alone heard that one official has been investigated by the emperor, so Hualang and they know that the Eight Sages did not hand over the list to the emperor.
It's okay if you don't hand it over to the emperor.
Around noon, Hua Lang and the others finally returned to Tianchang County, Long Yingqiong and Liu Yi each went back to their own dart game, and Hua Lang and they went back to their own detective agency.
Although this trip has experienced a lot of hardships and dangers, it has gained a lot, such as the thousand taels of silver, such as knowing the Eight Sages King.
Although the Eight Sages wanted to kill them again, he didn't kill them after all, which shows that the Eight Sages still appreciate Hualang and them from the bottom of his heart, otherwise, as a royal person, that kind of decision is definitely not something that ordinary people can escape.
Not long after returning to the detective agency, they hadn't even drunk a cup of herbal tea, so Gongsun Ce hurried over, Gongsun Ce was still elegant at this time, but after seeing Hua Lang, he shouted as if he had seen his own brother: "Brother Hua, you are finally back." ”
Whenever Gongsun Ce called Hua Lang like this, Hua Lang knew that Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were in trouble again, Hua Lang shrugged his shoulders, smiled helplessly, and said, "Mr. Gongsun is fine, we just came back." ”
Gongsun Ce nodded again and again, and said, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, I'll tell you, something big has happened to our Tianchang County." ”
At this time, Hualang was very tired, but he didn't want to lose face with Gongsun Ce, so he asked: "Mr. Gongsun, don't worry, say it slowly, what's going on in our Tianchang County?" ”
Hua Wan'er gave up her seat to Gongsun Ce, and after Gongsun Ce sat down, she said: "Yesterday, Lord Bao was called to Yangzhou Mansion by Lord Luo Qingluo, the prefect of Yangzhou, and he hasn't come back yet, I'm worried." ”
After listening to Gongsun Ce's words, Hua Lang really wanted to spray him with a sip of tea, Bao Zheng couldn't go through Yangzhou for a day, as for being so worried, what he knew was because Gongsun Ce was worried about Bao Zheng's safety, and those who didn't know Lu Dao thought that both of them had the good of Longyang.
However, Gongsun Ce did seem to be worried at this time, so even if Hua Lang felt that there was nothing to worry about in this matter, he still comforted: "Mr. Gongsun rest assured, Master Bao will go to Yangzhou Mansion, nothing will happen, maybe he thinks that the little lotus in Yangzhou has shown sharp corners, so he wants to enjoy the lotus there, so he will postpone his return for a few days, and Mr. Gongsun does not have to worry." ”
Gongsun Ce shook his head: "Can you not worry there, I have already sent someone to send many letters, but the adults have not replied to any of them, how can I not be worried?" ”
Hearing this, Hua Lang smiled lightly and said, "It's only been a day since yesterday, and even if you send a letter, it's impossible to send a letter so quickly, Mr. Gongsun wait patiently." ”
Gongsun Ce was comforted by Hua Lang a little, but he was still worried, so after saying a few words, he begged Hua Lang to write a letter to ask, and after Hua Lang agreed, Gongsun Ce left.
After Gongsun Ce left, everyone was really tired, so they went back to their rooms to rest.
This rest lasted for several hours, and by the time they awoke, the sun had set over the mountain, and the dusk was over.
And at this time, Gongsun Ce came again, at this time he no longer had the anxiety of noon today, and he wanted to come to Bao Zheng to reply, but although he was not anxious, his brows were furrowed.
Seeing this, Hua Lang was very strange and asked, "Mr. Gongsun has something on his mind?" ”
Gongsun Ce nodded and said, "My lord came to reply, saying that Lord Luo, the prefect of Yangzhou, left them to handle things, and I am afraid that they will not be able to come back for a while, and said that if we can, ask us to rush to Yangzhou City to help." ”
"Help? Did Mr. Bao encounter any difficulties? Hua Lang asked a little puzzled, Yangzhou is very rich, and talents are even more crowded, why do they need Hua Lang to help, and Yangzhou, what trouble can they encounter?
Gongsun Ce shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, and the letter didn't explain it, I think the matter is too complicated, and the letter doesn't understand, I'm going to rush to Yangzhou tomorrow, I don't know if you are willing to go, Brother Hua?" ”
It stands to reason that Hualang has been tossed enough in the past few days, and he doesn't want to go there when he is really tired, and he makes money, he wants to enjoy life, this Yangzhou City, he doesn't want to wade into this troubled water.
It's just that Gongsun Ce asked for this, how could he refuse, and if he refused, would he complain about Hualang because of this?
Just when Hualang hesitated, Wen Meng suddenly said: "Okay, okay, let's go, at this time, Yangzhou's Slender West Lake is the most beautiful, the lotus flowers in it are about to bloom, let's go boating and fishing, it's fun!" ”
What Wen Meng said was all things she had played with Fang Baiyu before, but since she followed Hua Lang, she rarely had this kind of leisure, one is because Fang Baiyu is in Yangzhou, she always feels embarrassed to go, and the other is because Hua Lang is too busy, although there are not many cases, they are coming one after another, and they don't have time to go.
Now they can not only go to handle cases, but also go to Yangzhou to play, if they don't go, they will be too sorry for themselves.
Seeing that Wen Meng wanted to go like this, Hua Lang hurriedly smiled and said, "Since Master Bao is in trouble in Yangzhou City, let's go now, and early tomorrow morning, we will go on the road with Mr. Gongsun." ”
Gongsun Ce saw that Hua Lang agreed, and his heart was full of gratitude, after all, this kind of thing has nothing to do with Hua Lang, and he is willing to help go, so he Gongsun Ce must be grateful.
"Brother Hua, I'll send someone to pick you up early tomorrow morning."
The detective agency was quiet again, and Hanaro sat on the chair, and his expression was not very good, because he was going to suffer from running around again.
Hua Lang's face was not good, but Wen Meng was extremely excited, she took Hua Wan'er to the room to prepare things, and said that when she went to Yangzhou, she must take this and that, go to Yangzhou, go to Slender West Lake for a while, go to Yangzhou, and try the food there.
