The third lady frowned slightly as she listened to the people who had gone out report the news they had come back from.
As soon as the other party finished speaking, she said: "Really?!"
"It can't be fake! I'm already with you!" The person who came was none other than Zhao Liangjian. Since his great contribution in the rescue work, he has now been absorbed into the "peripheral" by He Liansheng. Although he has no fame or status, he has a lot of money and friendship that Jianghu people value most, so he is naturally willing to serve.
These days, he and his companions were scattered around the capital, inquiring about all kinds of suspicious information, and monitoring various places according to the list.
The place where he monitored was the house of "Mr. Zhou" in Wang Gongchang provided by Liu Wei.
Unexpectedly, the house did not yield any clues through surveillance, but instead came up with a new case.
"Who is this person from? Is there anyone behind him?"
"It's hard to say whether there is anyone, but he is well-known in the world. He is known as 'Jade Face Pan An', and his real name is Pan Chengan."
"Jade-faced Pan An?" The third lady sneered and said, "You think he is very handsome?"
"It sounds like he is just a handsome man." Zhao Liangjian said, "It's just that he has the most thorough understanding of women's hearts, is good at all kinds of little tricks, and is also very good at picking up battles. If a woman falls in love with him, His hands are like maggots attached to the bones, which can no longer be shaken off."
"So powerful?"
"Exactly." Zhao Liangjian said, "If not, how could I do this?"
"Although this is a low-level job, it still requires some real skills." Sanniangzi said, "Please tell me the whole story in detail."
"What are Mr. Zhou's two concubines in this mansion" Zhao Liangjian said that Pan Chengan had long been eyeing Zhou's mansion because there had been no male master here for a long time, but there were two young women with young children. It's the easiest thing to start with.
Unexpectedly, although they were "fat", it was difficult to attack them. It took Pan Cheng'an several months of hard work to seize the opportunity when they went out for incense and used his "charm skills" for the first time.
Zhao Liangjian doesn¡¯t know the specific process. However, there are routines for recruiting women, and these are just a few tricks. In short, Pan Chengan became interested in Yourong Lang's concubine after two visits.
"About two months ago, the two had a private meeting in a nunnery in the south of the city, and Pan Chengan took over." Zhao Liangjian said, "I will probably instigate her to flee."
"Didn't you say that this mansion is very tightly guarded? The two concubines only burn incense and go to the temple fair on the first and fifteenth day of every month. Even the servants rarely go out."
"Sanniang, you have also been a nurse in the inner courtyard. You know very well what happens to the female relatives. Which big family is not strict, but which family can prevent these things! As long as it happens With this thought, even in the sky prison, I can still get things done."
After listening to this, the third lady didn¡¯t know how to respond. This matter seems to be related and unrelated to the arrest of "Mr. Le", and whether to intervene has become a dilemma.
It stands to reason that there is no trace of "Mr. Le" or the more mysterious "Mr. Zhou" in the mansion right now, so if anything happens in the mansion, you should not intervene, so as not to alert the snake; but watching the bad guys abduct women, will Not saving someone when they are pushed into a pit of fire is against the ethics of escorts.
"Can things be settled without making any noise?"
"It's probably impossible." Zhao Liangjian said, "It's easy to kill Jade Face Pan An, but many colleagues in the capital know about his case."
If Pan Chengan disappears suddenly, everyone will know that someone is secretly interfering in this matter. This potential surveillance point makes no sense.
"Then we can only allow him to abduct the woman out." Sanniangzi exhaled unwillingly and murmured, "These are unworthy! Can't we live without a man?!"
Zhao Liangjian had already sensed that Sanniang wanted to take care of this matter, but she couldn't because of her mission, so she was in a dilemma. He thought for a while and said, "It's okay if the third wife wants to take care of this matter. After Pan Cheng'an succeeds, he will probably sell the woman to the southern guests on the canal, and then intercept her."
"How do you know he will sell it to customers on the boat?"
"This house is a place that Wanping County has given permission to. No one dares to do it at ordinary times." Zhou Zhai is a place where Wang Yehao specially sent a message to the Wanping County Yamen to take care of it. The thieves dare not attack it at ordinary times. Therefore, it is impossible to "seize the door and kidnap someone" - this is an act of seeking death at the feet of the emperor, but if the female family members escape privately, they have nothing to do with the Yamen.
" Even so, we have to guard against Ku taking the initiative to use official status to ask for someone. So if he gets his hands on him, he will sell the woman far away. Only in this way can he start from the beginning.?, without affecting oneself. "
"Good fellow, these monsters!" Sanniangzi frowned in disgust, "That's fine, it's up to you. You can keep me informed of things over there at any time."
After listening to Xu Yong¡¯s report, Zhou Lezhi stopped writing in his hand. He slowly put it down, thought for a moment and asked, "Who do you think they are?"
¡°Nine times out of ten, it¡¯s the person who wrote the note (abducting the woman)!¡± Xu Yong said anxiously.
Zhou Lezhi felt a little hesitant when he recalled what Wang Zhi had said so generously, and then when he recalled that Liu Zheng had said something similar before he disappeared.
This matter is not groundless, he has heard about it for a long time, but even if there is no real evidence, and he is an "apprentice", it is inconvenient for him to intervene directly. If I report it to Mr. Wang, I'm afraid things will get messy and the teacher will be humiliated.
Originally, the master was quite open-minded towards women, always saying "if they work together, stay, and if they don't work, leave". He also said that if one day Yourong or Yui no longer want to follow him, he will not object if they want to marry someone else. Not only will they not She will object and even give her a generous dowry.
Zhou Lezhi didn't have to let Yourong and the others "guard" him. After all, it was unknown whether the master was still alive or not, and whether he would come back if he was still alive. It's not surprising that they were worried about this kind of "care" that was akin to house arrest.
It doesn¡¯t matter that she has permission, the problem is that she is Zhou Newton¡¯s ¡°biological mother¡±. Although he, Wang Zhi, Xu Yong, and the Liu brothers all knew that both Newton and Curie had obtained Xibei goods from Liu Zhen, but after living together for the past few years, the master had a deep affection for these two children. If Yourong took away Zhou Newton or something unexpected happened during the abduction, how would he explain it to his master?
"Whether Yourong is a red thread, or she is deceived by others. Those who seek her must be evil people. If she really falls into their hands, I'm afraid she will be doomed." Zhou Lezhi said solemnly, "Without any delay, report it to the master quickly. "
"Yes!" Xu Yong was very excited when he saw Mr. Le's firm attitude. He nodded vigorously and said, "I was really abducted. Mr. Le is back and he has lost his family. It's hard for us to explain."
"Call Wang Zhi here."
Wang Zhi had been reading novels these days, and Zhou Lezhi had been putting off the matter that Zhou Lezhi had asked him to send out New Year's goods. When he heard Zhou Lezhi calling him, he thought it was still the matter, so he quickly defended himself: "Sir! I'm not a little kid. No, it¡¯s just that my legs have been hurting for the past few days"
"I think it's not your legs that hurt, it's your butt that's itchy!" Zhou Lezhi scolded with a smile, "Ask the housekeeper to give you forty bucks and you'll feel better!"
"Sir, have mercy! Let's do it now, little one!" Wang Zhi said hurriedly. Although Zhou Lezhi is usually kind, cute and young, he is a first-rate celebrity in front of Mr. Wang. The key is that he is different from the previous Mr. Zhou in that he "knows how to be the master."
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Lezhi muttered, "You take Xu Yong with you this time."
"Yes, yes." Wang Zhi nodded repeatedly.
"You pretend to be a little boy carrying something. Don't show your face."
"I understand, little one!"
"When you get to the house, don't put down your things and leave. You have to investigate carefully." Zhou Lezhi said solemnly, "Especially in a spacious house!"
Wang Zhi was startled and said, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
"What's wrong?" Zhou Lezhi said, "Didn't you say that she was 'very restless'?"
"Yes, that's what the young one said. But after all, she is Mr. Zhou's concubine, and she has a son at her knees. Her status is unusual. When the young ones go to deliver things, the most they can do is look at the curtain in the courtyard to say hello, and say a few words. In a word, how can we strictly investigate? Not to mention the difference between men and women, the superiority and inferiority cannot be messed up."
Zhou Lezhi thought Wang Zhi was right. Both Wang Zhi and Xu Yong have the status of "servants". How can they investigate the appearance of half a master? Not to mention breaking into the house.
Speaking of which, I am also just the "disciple", and Yourong Yui is the "master". Even if I go in person, I cannot go to "strict investigation".
But now he has no place to find a high-status woman to help. He immediately said: "In this case, you two go first. If you can't go inside the house, you can walk around the courtyard privately. See if there is anything suspicious." He suddenly remembered something and asked again, "If you have permission, There is really something, maybe someone is secretly assisting her, either a servant at home or some kind of aunt or uncle. You should carefully ask the people who serve in the mansion! "
Having said that, Wang Zhi also knew that things were important. Busy agreed. Then he said: "The two families serving in Zhou's house are the sons of the master, so they are the most reliable. I'm afraid there will be outsiders to seduce them."
"I am in charge of this matter, you just ask." Zhou Lezhi said, "If someone is dishonest, I will answer your questions."
"yes!"
"Xu Yong!" Zhou Lezhi said, "I have been bothering you to guard the mansion these days. Someone will come to take your place within three days."
"Yes, I understand!" Xu Yong hesitated for a moment and then said, "If something happens within three days and I can't handle it alone, what should I do?"
"Didn't your master teach you? The capital is at the feet of the emperor. No matter how arrogant the thieves are, they would not dare to break in and seize people. Just watch and don't let people run out!" Zhou Lezhi said with a smile, "But you are thoughtful! "
"Thank you sir." Xu Yong was very happy. It was a very honorable thing to be praised by this wise man. It is also related to his future status in Shi Weng Group.sp; "Xu Yong!" Zhou Lezhi said, "I have been bothering you to guard the mansion these days. Someone will come to take your place within three days."
