Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 122 Looking for trouble (second update)
The second year of high school and Xu Da walked at the back, and the way down the mountain could only rely on the moonlight. The two had often walked at night before, and they were not afraid because of their kung fu. But since they finished their errands in Anping County, they followed Wu Chen All the way to Yang'an County, but his courage became smaller and smaller.

The second year of high school clings to Xu Da and whispers, "I always feel that someone is following behind me."

Xu Da said: "I think so too, but I don't dare to look back. You see Brother Wu is still looking around, should we ask him to look behind again?"

"I've yelled three times, isn't it a bit embarrassing to yell again?"

"Hey, you said we haven't seen each other before, how could you be so afraid?"

"Maybe you won't be afraid if you really see it, but you're most afraid of this, knowing that you can't see it..."

"Don't expect to see it, let Brother Wu have this ability, I don't want to see it."

Wu Chen looked back at this moment, then turned his head away again.

Senior Two and Xu Da breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

……

When they were about to reach the bottom of the mountain, they saw the light of the torches. It was the pawns who came to pick them up and were waiting at the foot of the mountain.

When the patrolman saw a figure on the way down the mountain, someone held a torch to meet him. A patrolman saw Wu Chen and hurriedly reported: "I have to report to Mr. Wu. When we came out, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council arrived."

"Who?" After Wu Chen asked, he turned to the sophomore and Xu Da.

Gao Er and Xu Dashi ordered the patrolmen to tie up the old Taoists and brought them to the horse, and then the two came over. Gao Er asked the patrolmen: "Who did you just say is here?"

"Yu Shi'an, deputy envoy of the Privy Council."

"What is he here for?" After the sophomore asked, he replied, "That's right, five hundred soldiers died, so he has to come and have a look."

Wu Chen asked, "What cadre? No, what do you do?"

Senior Two explained: "To put it simply, the Privy Council holds military registration, tiger talismans, and can mobilize troops and horses. It can be said that the military power is in control. Five hundred soldiers died in Yang'an County. They are all their subordinates. Can people come and see?"

"Isn't this going to the Ministry of War?" Wu Chen asked.

Xu Da laughed and said, "Brother Wu also knows about the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War is actually just a sham. It is in charge of guards of honor, martial arts, hereditary military registration and other trivial matters, but the Privy Council has no authority."

Wu Chen didn't bother to care about this, and asked again: "Do I need to give him face?"

"According to the rank, Si Zun is not as big as him, and you still have to give face. Yu Shian, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, has a bit of a temper, but when you meet people from our imperial city department, you should restrain yourself. If he restrains, you will Give people some decency..."

"Is he an official in Kyoto?"

"Of course."

"How long does it take from Kyoto to Yang'an County?" Wu Chen asked.

The sophomore in high school thought for a while and said, "It will take a few days for a fast horse to whip the whip. He is such a big official and he is still a little old. Naturally, he came by carriage. It is estimated that it will take more than ten days."

Wu Chen nodded and said, "That's why he left a few days after receiving the news... I think Si Zun is almost in the capital now, so he's free too. Find something for him to do."

Xu Da hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Wu Chen's sleeve, indicating that there were soldiers around him, how could he say such things in front of them!
Wu Chen smiled, didn't say anything, and got on the horse directly. He hasn't eaten all day, so hurry back to eat!

……

When we got back to the house, it was already Xu time, Wu Chen got off his horse and said to the soldiers: "These people should be locked up in the woodshed first."

After finishing speaking, Wu Chen walked towards the house, and a guard chased after him and said, "Vice Envoy Yu rested in the courtyard where Lin Duzhi lived before, and it seems that he has no plans to change places."

Wu Chen nodded to show that he understood, and went straight to his room, Gao Er and Xu Da also followed, the three of them entered the room, the food was already set on the table, the three of them cleaned their hands, and began to eat.

Datou sat aside excitedly, couldn't help but ate another meal.

After the three of them were full, Xu Da urged: "Brother Wu, hurry up and meet Deputy Envoy Yu. It would be disrespectful for us not to meet directly when we come back, but it's justifiable. He might not blame..."

"I'm tired. We'll talk about it tomorrow. You two should go back to sleep quickly." Wu Chen stretched himself and walked towards the back room.

Xu Da wanted to persuade him again, but was dragged away by the second grader, and the two left the room, the second grader said in a low voice, "Brother Wu has his own measure."

Wu Chen lay on the bed and smiled.

Chen Zhong wanted to use him, but he was always on guard against him. He was never lenient when he let him die, and Wu Chen remembered everything. He kicked the escort before as a reward, and now Deputy Yu came again. So, why wouldn't Wu Chen make good use of it to make things difficult for Chen Zhong?

Anyway, he can't die, and the title of Imperial City Secretary is also convenient for him to complete the task. Chen Zhong is not afraid if he is in a hurry. At worst, he will follow Gu Shiming. After the task is completed, he will go back. He should teach Chen Zhong a lesson. It is good that few eunuchs are in power. If you have the opportunity to meet the officials, you must explain this truth to the officials. What can a person with a twisted mind do?

But then again, those officials who are not physically disabled seem to be able to do personnel affairs.

Wu Chen fell asleep after thinking about it.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Wu Chen was woken up again by the big head, who said, "The policeman has come several times, saying that Deputy Envoy Yu is anxious to see you, and he has already urged him several times."

Wu Chen lazily got up, dressed, washed, and ate, and then went to see Deputy Envoy Yu.

Yu Shi'an waited in the house, the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Last night he heard that Mr. Wu had taken people to Laojie Mountain, so he waited for Mr. Wu, wanting to know the case, but the attendant said that Mr. Wu had come back for dinner Afterwards he fell asleep, Yu Shi'an thought it was because the pawns didn't tell him that he was coming, so he quickly ordered someone to ask, and it turned out that Mr. Wu knew about it.

Yu Shi'an was a little annoyed last night, the officials in the capital avoided the people from the Imperial City Division, and he usually didn't bother to deal with these people, but now the case was handed over to the Imperial City Division, so he had to deal with it if he didn't want to.

On weekdays, one Chen Zhong would be a bit of a headache, but now there is another Mr. Wu, Yu Shian received a lot of news along the way, knowing that the Imperial City Secretary has made great contributions again, the officials are very happy, and they have praised this Imperial City more than once Mr. Wu of the Investigation Department is courageous, loyal, courageous and commendable, and he clearly intends to reuse him.

Could it be that this person thinks that he has made a contribution, so he is defiant?

Yu Shi'an has been an official for many years, how could he seek his own advantage and cause trouble for himself at this time, just waiting for a few words of dissatisfaction in his words tomorrow, that's all. normal.

Unexpectedly, when he got up today, he thought that Mr. Wu would pretend to come to him early to say hello. Even if Mr. Wu himself is not sensible, the people around him should remind him.

But he waited and waited, and couldn't bear to order someone to urge him to find out that Mr. Wu hadn't got up yet.

Yu Shi'an thought it was because he was tired yesterday, so he waited for a while, and ordered someone to ask again, but it turned out that Yu Shi'an hadn't got up yet, and when he got down several times, Yu Shi'an's last bit of patience was worn out.
