No one would doubt such a real assassination, because everyone's heart is on the left side. A sword pierced the heart. It looked like they were just rushing to kill someone. No one would act like that.
But this play is so real.
Only, why must Nie Xiaoli be kidnapped?
Did Wang Chulan really want to hide this girl, or did they discover something was wrong with them? Or are you going to dig out your own secrets from Nie Xiaoli?
But either way, it's not a good thing.
Nie Xiaoli is probably being tortured now and must be rescued as soon as possible.
He turned his head and looked into the distance, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart: Brother Masked Thief, you are so reliable.
However, the invincible masked thief in white turban failed this time.
He was a little depressed: "This witch is very smart, but I didn't find her."
"Not found?" Jiang Fan couldn't help but frowned: "Where does she live?"
"Be honest and live in Yuelai Inn."
"Yelai Inn?"
"Yes, it's the one near the south gate of Yining. It's easy to find. There are Yuelai Inn, Yuelai Restaurant, Yuelai Clothing Store..."
Mr. Jiang was speechless. He had seen this Yue Lai in Wei State, and they all gathered together. Seeing this, could it be that there is also a chain in Jin State?
"Have you checked the Yuelai Restaurant and Cloth Shop nearby?"
Gu Qingshan shook his head: "I did a rough check, but it's hard to take a closer look. If I want to check carefully, I'm afraid I have to find another way."
"What? Are there any experts in Yuelai?"
"Hmm... there seem to be quite a few. Among other things, the innkeeper is a great martial artist, and the waiter at the wine shop is also a second-rate martial artist."
It's interesting. Last time I was in Jian'an, I felt that Yuelai was not simple. Now it seems that it is indeed so.
Jiang Fan turned his hands behind his back twice and narrowed his eyes: "If secret investigation doesn't work, let's investigate openly."
Gu Qingshan was stunned: "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Fan casually pulled out the white cloth strip from his arms, with a smirk on his lips: "Brother Thief, you said that as a big thief, it seems that you haven't stolen anything yet..."
As a result, the inn was stolen.
To be precise, the eldest prince was stolen.
The gold-encrusted jade Ruyi was given by the King of Jin. Not only was it valuable, but it was also a talisman given to his son by the King of Jin. Losing it would be a big deal.
So the whole city of Yining was sealed off, no one was allowed in, no one was allowed out, and soldiers were dispatched in droves to search every house.
As a good friend of Sima Jing, Mr. Jiang personally led the team to take charge of the Nancheng area.
Mr. Jiang did it very logically. He first blocked all the streets in Nancheng, then divided them into blocks and searched them simultaneously.
And he himself led a team to personally take charge of the most prosperous and certainly the most important area of the South City Gate.
To be honest, when Jiang Fan came here, he was confused about Yuelai, a huge hereditary and chain inn.
There are more than twenty Yuelai merchants here, ranging from inns and restaurants to rouge and gouache shops.
Jiang Fan became more and more suspicious. This was definitely a giant company. Who was running it?
Already interested, Mr. Jiang sent people to search carefully, and at the same time asked the innkeeper to make inquiries in the name of investigating the case.
The shopkeeper is a fat, amiable middle-aged man who always has a pleasant smile on his face.
"Shopkeeper, I was ordered to investigate the case. I'm sorry for disturbing you. Where is your boss?"
The shopkeeper said respectfully: "My boss has been out for more than twenty days."
"Oh... I see that Yuelai has many properties, but they are all owned by one family?"
The shopkeeper didn't hide it either: "Everyone in Yining City who carries the Yuelai brand is from the same family."
Jiang Fan seemed surprised: "Huh? So many? Who is your proprietor? He is very wealthy."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Our proprietor is just someone sent from above. I don't know the real proprietor either."
"Oh? So Yuelai is quite mysterious?"
"No, no, Master Chai, don't get me wrong. Yuelai has properties in the five countries. The status of the big owner is too high for us to reach."
Haha, it’s real. It is indeed a large multinational chain enterprise.
"So you don't know who you are working for?"
"Yes, we recruit from all over the country, we just met the person in charge of Yining City."
Jiang Fan nodded and chatted for a few words before sending him away.
This person probably didn't know the inside story, but he said openly about Yuelai that he had industries in the five countries, just like a serious businessman. It's hard to doubt anymore.
Just as he was thinking about it, a charming and beautiful woman walked down from upstairs.
"Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Fan looked up and saw that it was Tian Mol standing on the stairs.
Then he cupped his hands and said, "Mrs. Tian."
Tian Mole smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that the young master would have to go to the trouble of taking action in person for a mere theft."
"This is not a trivial matter. The treasure given by the king is lost, and the eldest prince cannot explain it. As brothers, we can only help share the worries. It has disturbed the lady. I apologize to the next generation, Brother Jing."
Lap Mole slowly walked down the stairs and came closer: "It doesn't matter, it's all business. If you need Lamole's cooperation, just ask."
Jiang Fan then smiled and said: "Indeed. Madam Tian is a distinguished guest of the Young Master, so the subordinates can't search the room, so I have to be the villain. I wonder if Madam can make it easier for me to give me an explanation."
Lap Mole chuckled: "Master, are you doubting my wife?"
"Don't dare, don't dare." Jiang Fan waved his hands repeatedly: "Just don't wait until you ask, I said I sent my wife. It would be okay if the thief is found in the future, but if not, wouldn't this be awkward?"
Tian Mole smiled and said: "That's right. In this case, I won't embarrass the young master. I will personally lead the way for you."
Jiang Fan cupped his hands and casually called four soldiers to follow Tian Mol upstairs.
Lap Mole is quite generous, and she has taken over all twelve rooms on the third floor.
She lives in the Tianzihao room at the end.
After a search, the soldiers reported nothing.
As expected, Jiang Fan waved his hand to tell the soldiers to retreat, and bowed his hands to Tian Mol: "I disturbed my wife, I will propose a toast to apologize another day."
After saying that, he was about to leave, but Tian Mole suddenly stopped him: "Master, wait a minute. Since you are here, just rest here for a while. I still want to talk to you about something."
Jiang Fan's heart moved slightly. This is what he was waiting for. He smiled and said, "Madam and Brother Sima are in a cooperative relationship. Why should I be polite to Ruochen? If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Tian Mole invited him to sit down and poured tea for him with his own hands: "Young Master...there are no outsiders here. May I call you Miss Jiang?"
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but smile: "I can't hide it from Madam's discernment."
Tian Mole chuckled: "Miss Jiang is dressed in men's clothing. Although her appearance is very subtle, the throats of men and women are very different. Madam, I have been here, how can I not see the reason? Besides, His Highness welcomed Miss Jiang Ruochen in a high-profile manner. It’s not a secret, I heard about it on the first day I came here. I just didn’t expect that Miss Jiang, at such a young age, would be so talented in learning and gain such trust from His Highness.”
Jiang Fan smiled slightly: "Madam is overly praised. We are both women, but Ruochen is far different from her."
The mole cupped her cheeks and said, "Girl, you don't have to be humble. My wife can't do this at your age. Is she even ten years old?"
"Twenty years spent in vain, Madam has a sharp eye."
"Twenty-two years old is still a great time, but it is a girl who is more beautiful than any other girl, but she has risen to the top with her talent and learning, which is really impressive."
Jiang Fan said calmly: "Since I am presenting myself as Young Master Jiang, it is for the sake of convenience. Madam, please call me Young Master."
In fact, he didn't want anyone to call him Miss Jiang anymore. It was too awkward. At first, he did it because he wanted to get close to Lin Zhaoji. Now that he has finally changed into men's clothes, it's natural to be Mr. Jiang.
