The cold wind is blowing.
Tianxiong Escort Agency.
This place has long been turned into ruins, with broken doors and broken windows and a mess all over the place.
Xu Zhen came here alone and walked straight to a room in the deepest part of the escort agency.
This house was the bedroom where Li Sixiong originally lived.
Nowadays, it is also in ruins on all sides, with beds collapsed and tables overturned.
However, Xu Zhen discovered that the innermost wall was intact and the opening of the secret passage was closed.
At this moment, as long as Xu Zhen goes to the bottom of the bookcase and moves the switch, the secret passage may be opened.
However, Xu Zhen did not do that.
Instead, he took out a letter from his arms and placed it in a conspicuous place on the bookcase.
There are two lines written on the envelope, one is:
"Li Chan'er personally initiated it."
Another line is:
"Yours sincerely, Xu Zhen."
After putting down the letter, Xu Zhen didn't stay any longer and turned around to leave Tianxiong Escort Agency.
After coming out of Tianxiong Escort Agency, there was a carriage parked at the door.
The person driving the car was the servant Asheng, and waiting for him in the carriage was Qin Yin, the maidservant from the East China Sea remnants who had just been taken under his command.
interesting.
Xu Zhen couldn't help but sigh that the carriage, coachman and maidservants were all given as gifts by Wei Yulang.
After getting on the carriage, the carriage headed straight for Shouliu Shu Town. Xu Zhen planned to go to Yaochang Village to conduct a secret investigation.
In the carriage, Xu Zhen and Qin Yin sat opposite each other.
Qinyin is still very nervous, wondering what Xu Zhen wants to do by bringing him out?
In fact, the reason why he brought her with him was because Xu Zhen wanted to discuss the disguise technique with her, and by the way, he also wanted to learn more about this fallen princess of the Thousand Lion Kingdom.
"Who did you learn your disguise skills from?" Xu Zhen asked on the bumpy carriage.
"My father died young, so I learned a little from my uncle." Qinyin replied nervously, "A descendant of the Thousand Lion Clan, good at imitating."
"I heard..." Xu Zhen asked tentatively, "After Daxuan pacified the East China Sea decades ago, the monarchs of Thousand Lion Kingdom were taken to live in the Holy Capital and enjoyed the treatment of princes. Then why did your family decline? What’s up?”
"Exclusion," Qin Yin stretched out a finger and nodded habitually when speaking, "Each generation of the royal family can only have one heir who enjoys the treatment of a prince. Those who are not qualified to inherit can only be excluded."
"Then..." Xu Zhen asked again, "Why did you end up like this?"
"The survivors of the East China Sea..." Qin Yin looked sad, "They were discriminated against and had a hard time surviving. From my father's generation, I could only make a living by performing with the troupe.
"Because I was pretty, I was sold by the troupe...I lived in Wanhua Tower..."
Later, Qinyin could no longer speak, and tears fell silently, pitifully.
Xu Zhen had learned some information from Wei Yulang before.
After Qin Yin was sent to Wanhua Tower, she couldn't stand the humiliation and used disguises to escape several times. However, she was finally caught and beaten countless times.
It is said that there is also a hierarchy among the girls in Wanhualou. The status of the Donghai survivors is extremely low. Qinyin is not only insulted by the guests, but also ostracized by his peers, making his life miserable.
Therefore, she had no choice but to help Wei Yushan disguise himself in order to seek temporary protection.
If Xu Zhen hadn't rescued her, I wonder how Wei Yulang would have punished her?
However, although Qinyin's status is extremely low, she is a descendant of the royal family after all. She has been proficient in painting, music, dance, etc. since she was a child, and she can be said to be versatile.
Moreover, during the days when she was performing with the troupe, she came into contact with all kinds of people, and was able to imitate their expressions and speech in subtle ways, and even mastered superb ventriloquism.
In the carriage, she performed a scene for Xu Zhen of a tracker pulling his strings, which shocked Xu Zhen on the spot.
The sound she imitated of a man pulling his hair was so fake that it was impossible to tell the difference if you closed your eyes.
Even the sound of running water, boats, trumpets, and bird calls can be imitated perfectly.
Talent!
Xu Zhen was shocked. He didn't expect that he would pick up the treasure because of his keen eye for pearls.
If you can teach the sound of the piano well, you will definitely be your best helper in the future.
So, Xu Zhen used his sharp tongue to chat with Qin Yin in the carriage. His humorous way of talking soon made the foreign girl laugh out loud, and the relationship gradually became closer...
…
Xu Zhen had a good idea and planned to quietly launch an investigation after arriving at Yaochang Village to find clues to the mass poisoning incident three years ago.
However, when he arrived at Yaochang Village, he found that it was like a battlefield. Dozens of people fought against each other, leaving their heads bloody and rolling on the ground!
Xu Zhen didn't know the situation, so he could only ask Asheng to stop the carriage in a safe area while he touched it to check the situation.
Soon he figured out why.
It turns out that the problem still lies with Meng Shaojun’s family property.
After the murder case was solved, Meng Shaojun's family property was once again pushed to the forefront.
Li Qian considered himself Meng Shaojun's son-in-law, so he naturally wanted to inherit all the family property.
However, the newly appointed Li Zheng and all the villagers disagreed, believing that Li Qian had been expelled from the Meng family by Meng Shaojun long ago, and the family property had nothing to do with him anymore.
The purpose of Li Zheng and all the villagers is clear and consistent. As long as the property is not given to Li Qian, it will be distributed to the village and everyone will have a share.
Therefore, all the villagers in the village sided with Li Zheng and finally drove Li Qian out of Yaochang Village.
However, Li Qian is not a fuel-efficient lamp. How could he be willing to give up such a huge fortune.
So, he went to Shouliu Shu Town, joined forces with Baozheng and other management personnel, and returned to Yaochang Village to continue asking for the inheritance.
You don't need to think about it to know that Li Qian must have promised Baozheng that as long as he can help him get his property back, he will give full benefits to Baozheng and others.
Baozheng is the mayor of the town. Since there is no official establishment, everything is private. To put it bluntly, he is just a local snake and a big hooligan.
As soon as they saw such a huge benefit, they immediately gathered a large number of idle people in the town and came to Yaochang Village to support Li Qian and negotiate with Li Zheng.
It is conceivable that for such a large amount of property, the negotiation could not produce any results. In the end, the two parties took action after disagreement.
Both groups of people were not vegetarians, and the fight was extremely fierce. It is said that the fight lasted for nearly half an hour, and almost everyone lost the prize...
oops……
Xu Zhen secretly regretted that if he had known this, he should have brought Huniu Shen Yu with him.
As long as Shen Yu stands in the middle with a stick, Xu Zhen can declare domineeringly that all Meng Shaojun's property belongs to the county government.
However, without Shen Yu, he would not be domineering.
So……
What to do?
Xu Zhen is so smart. He thought about it and had an idea.
His idea couldn't be simpler, it's just three words - watch the fun!
Anyway, the two sides fighting are not related to me, so let's fight. When we are tired, we will naturally stop.
However, just watching the fun was obviously not enough. Xu Zhen also took advantage of the trick and immediately returned to the carriage, found pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then started tinkering with his maid Qin Yin...
