Chapter 39: Bounty list
Chapter 39 Bounty List
Wen Chengyao finally knew that the person who beat him in the sack was Wen Jiuxiao, and sued Wu'an Hou.
"Father, I don't know where my son offended the third child. Is there any misunderstanding that I can't talk about? He insists on doing it? The son is still the elder brother, where is the face? Son, son—" Wen Chengyao choked up a little, feeling very wronged .
He is in Jinwu Guard, so it is not good for him to take leave because of that injury. It took him more than half a month to heal the wound on his face, what a shame! Others also questioned his character, otherwise there are so many people in the Jinwu Guard, why was he the only one who was beaten black?
"Did the third child really fight?" Marquis Wu An was surprised, and he still didn't believe it.
How stable is the third child, can he do this?
"Does my son dare to lie about this matter? The son did a clear investigation, and it was the third child who did it." Wen Chengyao decided.
"Lao Geng is going to invite the third master." Lao Geng is an official of the outer court, and only obeys the orders of Marquis Wu'an.
Wen Jiuxiao arrived soon, seeing that his second brother was also there, You Qi's second brother stared at him angrily, and he just glanced at him, "Father is looking for something with his son?"
The calm and upright look made Wu Anhou hard to speak, and he paused before saying: "Your second brother was beaten last time, what did you do?"
"I did it." Wen Jiuxiao readily admitted, with a look of "what do you say?"
Wen Jiuxiao didn't want to hide it at all. If he really wanted to hide it, how could Wen Chengyao find out?
But he hit someone, and the second child didn't know it was him. Isn't this Jin Yi Ye Xing? Not relieved at all. That's why he deliberately left clues to guide the second child to investigate.
The second child is also useless, it took so long to find him.
"Father, look, he has admitted it." Wen Chengyao shouted angrily.
"The one who teases first is cheap, you provoked me first."
"Bloody mouth, third child, why did I offend you? You said, you are in Dali Temple and I am in Jinwu Guard, how did I offend you?" Wen Chengyao looked as if he had been wronged.
Wen Jiuxiao sneered, "Hua! Whenever I have something good, you will be jealous. You don't dare to ask for it, but you encourage your father to come forward."
"Didn't you not give it?"
"That's because I gave the painting to my elder brother a long time ago. Otherwise, depending on your temperament, you still don't know how to tease your father. You still made up my gossip before I got the painting. You are a good man, imitating that woman. Should you beat me up? My father has carefully taught you for many years, just to let you learn the tricks of the house? I am teaching you for my father."
Wen Chengyao has always presented himself as a proper, generous, and courteous gentleman, but now he is so angry that he can't choose what to say, "You, you, didn't you beat me up in the martial arts field that day?"
"I haven't finished my anger." That means I have to continue to beat him.
Wen Chengyao was ashamed and angry, and jumped, "I, I, I am also your elder brother."
"I don't admit it either, but what does that have to do with me beating you up?"
Wen Jiuxiao can **** people off with just one mouth, and makes Wen Chengyao howl with anger, but he is still very calm, and he doesn't even change his expression.
"Shut up for me!" Marquis Wu An couldn't take it any longer, and yelled, this is all bullshit, it's too shameful.
However, Marquis Wu An also heard the grievances between the two of them clearly. It is true that he prefers the second child, but he also values the third child. Even if he does not admit it, the third child is the most promising among his sons, especially the old Sancai was praised by the emperor.
Therefore, it is not easy for him to show partiality, so he had to make peace between his two sons.
"Second, you first wanted the painting of the third, and you even arranged gossip to ruin the reputation of the third, and then you also beat the second, that's all, both of you are at fault, you two are even, this matter will be settled After this has passed, we are not allowed to mention it again.”
Wen Jiuxiao didn't suffer, so naturally it didn't matter, "The son listens to his father."
Heh, it’s cheap to be a good boy! Wen Chengyao subconsciously wanted to refute, but he held back when his father stared at him.
He lowered his head to hide his jealous and resentful eyes, clenched his fists under his sleeves, and tried his best to calm down, "Son also obeys father."
Marquis Wu An nodded in satisfaction, "What kind of misunderstanding between brothers can't be cleared up, you have to use your fists? Do you think outsiders don't see enough jokes? That's enough, all the grievances between you two are over here, and you are not allowed to mess around again. "
He is a general, so he cut the mess with a sharp knife, and warned, "I will never forgive anyone who has trouble in the future."
Wen Jiuxiao is not the one who suffers, so it still doesn't matter, "Father, don't worry, I won't offend people if they don't offend me."
Stretch out his claws again, and he can still beat him.
Marquis Wu An glared at him, then looked at his second son. Wen Chengyao was weak, "The son will never let his father down again."
Marquis Wu An's face paled slightly, "Okay, both of you go back."
"Son resigns!"
The two left the study room one after the other, and then walked away one after the other, neither of them paying attention to the other.
After the two sons left, Marquis Wu An couldn't help thinking: Didn't the third son follow the path of a civil servant? How can you act like a martial artist?
After an interval—Yu Zhi counted with her fingers, and after seven days, she finally went out to do activities again.
It was still a dark night, cloudy, with no stars and no moon.
Yu Zhi remembered a sentence written in his diary when he was young: Night is the best protective color.
Hey, it's a bit of art again.
She wandered around the same route as last time, and approached the wall where the lights were jumping. Just as she was about to look at the reward list, a person appeared behind her, "Hey, girl, you're here!"
Fortunately, he spoke early, otherwise the little dagger in Yu Zhi's hand would have stabbed back.
"What a coincidence!" I met Zhang Xiu again.
"Unfortunately, I come here every day, but my sister, where have you been these days?" Zhang Xiu asked with concern, and before she could answer, she complained aggrievedly, "What did my sister say that day? I’ve been dreaming about headless ghosts begging for my head these days.”
Yu Zhi's mouth twitched, a big man is still afraid of ghosts? Too timid.
Afraid that he would nag again, he changed the subject, "Those on the list—"
"They are all tasks that have not been completed. They are too difficult and tricky. I heard that they are all vicious people. If they are completed, they will be removed from the bounty list." Zhang Xiu explained.
Yu Zhi looked, "Troublesome is tricky, but the bounty is also high! Look at this one, worth - 100,000 gold? Am I right? Tsk tsk, the government is really rich!"
How much is one hundred thousand gold exchanged for silver? Multiply by ten, right? That is - one million taels!
How big is the pile? How about talking about gold and silver mountains? It turns out that gold and silver can really become mountains.
Sorry, too poor, poverty limits my imagination. Yu Zhi confessed to the God of Wealth in his heart!
"No matter how much money you have, you still have to spend it. The one on the list has been here for seven years, and the number of bounty hunters folded in is almost full."
"Five?"
Zhang Xiu corrected, "Fifty."
"So many? What is this person's background? I have to take a look." Yu Zhi took a closer look, good guy, there are more than a dozen **** cases alone, he once slaughtered an entire village, and even killed court officials. He was simply a terrorist, no wonder the government offered such a high bounty for his head.
"Hey, there's another person looking for it, one hundred gold, let me see who he's looking for?" Yu Zhi looked down, "Guan Shanke?!" The name looks so familiar! Where did I hear it, Yu Zhi thought hard.
"—Many people have been looking for this Guan Shanke recently, but he is very good at hiding, and there is no news about him in the Jianghu. Some people say that he is a righteous knight, helping Dali Temple to catch fugitives, but he is acting too crazy Unruly, hanging the fugitive on the gate of Dali Temple in the middle of the night, the method is also cruel, the fugitive's body is full of wounds, the blood dripped all night, almost drained—"
Yu Zhi—
She remembered, isn't Guan Shanke her? She—she just chose a random name at the time, and didn't pay attention to it. If she hadn't done what Zhang Xiu said, she wouldn't have remembered it.
