Shen Dongling has lived with her grandparents since she was a child.
Life was extremely poor.
And because of his outstanding appearance and living in the south of the city, where people are mixed, he is always on tenterhooks and never goes out unless he can.
If you have to go out, you will make yourself dirty and ugly.
But even so, there have been many thrilling moments.
This is also bearable.
But the scene two months ago dealt a devastating blow to her young heart.
I watched helplessly as my grandparents were captured and burned to death by the county soldiers as monsters.
He was almost burned to death.
It was the master who saved her.
Give her new clothes, a new house and endless delicious food.
And the sense of security she lacks most.
These days, she rarely has nightmares anymore. She is well fed and clothed every day without having to worry.
She hopes such days can last forever.
In this way, she was satisfied.
But now...
Shen Dongling threw herself into Xu Taiping's arms with tears in her eyes, tightly wrapped herself around Xu Taiping's strong waist, and cried loudly.
The master not only taught me how to practice, but also gave me magic weapons.
me……
Woo woo woo...
The more Shen Dongling cried, the more excited she became.
I cried until I was out of breath.
Cry out all the panic and fear of these days and years.
a long time.
Then he embarrassedly let go of Xu Taiping, took two steps back, lowered his head and murmured: "Master, slave, this slave is willing to serve the master for the rest of his life."
Xu Taiping didn't answer the question.
He just touched the little girl’s head.
I sighed in my heart.
too small.
It will take several years.
never mind.
Just keep it like this.
Let her study and practice.
Maybe he could raise a beautiful maid who was both civilized and martial.
That's not bad either.
Xu Taiping waited for Shen Dongling to stabilize his mood.
Only then did he go out.
Go to Xihe Tower for a banquet.
When they arrived at the place, Feng Shibo had already arrived and greeted Xu Taiping with a faint smile: "Brother, come with me."
Enter the private room.
Close the door.
Feng Shibo's smile grew wider: "Brother, take a seat. Your Excellency has some official business, and you'll come as soon as you finish it."
Xu Taiping hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "Mr. Feng's words are a little scary, but to be able to be received by an adult is already a blessing for this young man..."
Feng Shibo closed his fan and interrupted Xu Taiping: "You don't have to be so polite. Speaking of which, you have some connections with me."
"Oh?" Xu Taiping pretended to be confused: "Mr. Feng, I really don't know the origin you are talking about."
"Do you know Mr. Liu Sanbian Liu?"
Xu Taiping pretended to hesitate: "This..."
Feng Shibo saw Xu Taiping's expression and confirmed that Xu Taiping did know Liu Sanbian.
He sighed secretly.
How can this young detective named Xu be so virtuous that he can become a close friend with Mr. Liu?
Mr. Liu was also asked to come forward in person to ask for favors.
This friendship is really jealous.
why it's not me?
If I could get to know a noble man like Mr. Liu, why would I bother to work as a lowly person and deprive myself of my fame to become a master for someone else?
I have mixed feelings in my heart.
But he laughed and said: "Brother, don't be surprised. Your Excellency and Mr. Liu also know each other. I visited you personally a few days ago. I also mentioned you, brother, and entrusted you to take care of you."
Xu Taiping almost laughed out loud.
Made.
I've seen shameless people.
I've never seen anyone so shameless.
What he said seemed to be true.
But it felt like Jiao Kaicheng and Liu Sanbian had such a deep friendship that taking care of me was just incidental.
Made.
It was clearly "Liu Sanbian" who made the trip specifically to let Jiao Kaicheng take care of me.
Pooh.
If it weren't for me, it would be Liu Sanbian, and Liu Sanbian would be me, I would really believe the nonsense of you old boy.
really.
It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on heaven and earth.
It would be useless for Liu Sanbian to take action in person.
I was attacked in the street. Jiao Kaicheng had every chance to take action, but he remained indifferent.
This can only mean one thing. Jiao Kaicheng also has his own agenda and is not friendly to me.
Be careful.
This kind of person who seems to be a teammate is actually more dangerous than an enemy like Xia Xueyi.
The enemy is obvious.
But people like Jiao Kaicheng, who are suspected of being teammates, are extremely deceptive. If you trust him and entrust him with your wealth and life, he doesn’t need to betray you. He can kill you by just sitting idly by at the critical moment and you can still find a big friend. Piling up excuses to clear yourself up.
Disgusting and dangerous.
Xu Taiping was wary in his heart, but he had a look of sincere fear on his face: "Brother Liu unexpectedly... disturbed the prefect again. I am really panicked. I will definitely apologize to you later."
Feng Shibo waved his hand: "Hey, if you apologize, you will be forgiven. Besides, this is not an offense, and I don't mind, sir. I have called you here for official business."
"Business?"
"Yes," Feng Shibo sighed: "Your Excellency has just taken office, but you are always being made things difficult by villains, especially the lack of available people."
"This... little person has a low status and power. I'm afraid he can't help the adults."
"Remember the Xiangxuetang case?"
"Remember, hasn't the case been solved?"
"Yes, the case has been solved, but solving the case is just the beginning. Hu Jinbiao has been committing crimes for many years. Should Shangguan bear joint liability? What else did Hu Jinbiao do that is not allowed by law? Does Hu Jinbiao have other accomplices? What will happen to the position vacated after Hu Jinbiao's death?"
Xu Taiping blinked, pretending to be confused.
But my heart suddenly understood.
Jiao Kaicheng was eyeing the position of managing the Liugou Camp.
The prison camp manager is equivalent to the warden, a seventh-grade petty official. The rank is not high, but the power is not small, and the money is bigger. If you get it, there are many benefits.
Even if you can't get it yourself, you can't let the enemy get it.
Then, Jiao Kaicheng also wanted to use Hu Jinbiao's case to attack the original clique in Yingyin County such as Xia Xueyi and expand his power.
The idea is right.
But discuss these matters with me, a young policeman who came later...
Damn it, did you take me for a fool?
Do you think I can't see such an obvious plot to kill someone with a knife?
Or don’t bother to hide it at all?
Or do you think you are smart?
Or do you think I can’t refuse such a “kind offer?”
Jiao Kaicheng will definitely promise me some benefits, well, there is a high probability that he will be the leader.
However, for this small benefit, you want me to fight for you. Isn’t it too disrespectful to take me, Xu Taiping, seriously?
Feng Shibo saw Xu Taiping's confused face and felt disdainful.
Sure enough, he came from a small county town.
I have no knowledge and I can’t even understand what’s being said.
So what if this person is related to Liu Sanbian?
Fortunately, adults still think that he is very slippery and suitable for officialdom.
But looking at it this way, he is just a stupid young man with a little cleverness and a little strength.
This kind of person is so easy to deal with.
Thinking this, he chuckled and said, "My lord values you very much."
"real?"
"Well, how else can I treat you alone to a banquet? Even the county magistrate and the judge don't have such treatment. You are the first person he has entertained alone since he took office."
"This, this little one is so honored."
"Haha, my lord also said that you are a god in solving cases and are extremely brave. You will become a great weapon in the future. I want to form a good relationship with you in advance."
"Whenever an adult gives you an order, I will never refuse."
"Okay, okay, okay, this is the attitude you want," Feng Shibo was very satisfied with Xu Taiping's attitude and patted Xu Taiping on the shoulder: "Perform well, and the position of arresting the leader will definitely be yours."
"real?"
"My lord said it himself, but he can still lie to you."
"Thank you for your support, sir."
"But again, it depends on your performance. If you don't perform well, even if the adults forcibly promote you to be the head catcher, it will be difficult to convince the public." Feng Shibo meaningfully reminded: "The county-level head catcher is not the county-level head catcher." , has rank, has a letter of appointment from the court, and has a lot of power, and there are too many people watching."
Xu Taiping heard this.
I sneered in my heart.
What depends on my performance.
Isn't this PUA?
It’s a classic saying.
Everyone likes to use this trick when it comes to matters as small as love between a man and a woman, or as big as national affairs.
Why?
Because it’s easy to use.
You are in a weak position, and someone in a strong position can make you do your best to express yourself by saying "watch your performance".
Unless, you can see through and have the ability to counter pressure from a strong position.
Others cannot.
But I can.
I just ride on the horse and don’t care whether you are a governor or not. I will give you face and call you “Sir.”
If I don't give you face, you will be like a dog official.
He wanted to take advantage of me, but he couldn't bear to give me any real benefits.
I bother!
He was cursing secretly.
Feng Shibo stood up quickly: "My lord is here!"
