Stunning weapon

The entire Mei Mansion turned into a heavily guarded fortress overnight. Mo Xiaochuan was not used to presiding over the overall situation temporarily. Although he had been trained in the army, he had never dealt with the affairs of the mansion, and the personnel could not be fully identified. Fortunately, The third son knows a lot about the people and things in the mansion, at least he can connect all the stewards and save Mo Xiaochuan a lot of trouble.

Such a big incident happened in the Mei Mansion, and the whole mansion was in a state of turmoil. Mo Xiaochuan managed to handle the matter properly and stabilized temporarily, but it was already dawn.

The captain of the guard dragged his exhausted body back to the mansion, but found nothing.

Mo Xiaochuan knew that now was not the time to blame him, and he had to deal with too many things in the mansion, so he patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said: "You are also exhausted, go to rest first, the matter of finding someone, Just arrange for other people to do it, and you will be busy these few days."

The captain of the guard who did not complete the task thought he would be punished, but he was often reprimanded by Steward Wang before, or would kneel in the middle of the night. He was a little at a loss, looked carefully at the young master's expression, saw that his face was sincere, not pretending, and was moved in his heart, and said: "This subordinate is not tired, the young master has been busy all night, you go to rest first, Now that Steward Wang has an accident, the big and small affairs of the house depend on the young master, so you can't be exhausted."

Mo Xiaochuan nodded, and said softly: "Then I will thank you."

"Don't dare, dare not, the young master is too small." The captain of the guard looked terrified.

Mo Xiaochuan was used to being polite with his brothers in the army, but he didn't expect that a casual polite word would make the captain of the guard so nervous.In fact, he still treats the guards of the Mei Mansion as soldiers. In fact, although the guards of the Mei Mansion are very similar to the soldiers in the army, they are also the servants of the housekeepers, or are between soldiers and soldiers. The relationship between servants and Mo Xiaochuan is not superior and inferior, but the relationship between the master and the servants. Therefore, Mo Xiaochuan is so polite, which makes the captain of the guard so nervous.

Seeing him like this, Mo Xiaochuan sighed softly, knowing that these people could not change their minds by themselves, and didn't bother to say anything, he waved his hand lightly, and walked towards Paradise.

After watching Mo Xiaochuan leave, the captain of the guard wiped off a cold sweat. Some people are used to being indifferent, and suddenly someone treats them well, which is also a kind of pressure.

The news of the death of the housekeeper of the Mei Mansion spread like wildfire. Mo Xiaochuan was still inexperienced in dealing with these matters. Although the overall situation was temporarily stabilized, there were still many problems in the details. It was only at noon when the news of the death of the housekeeper Wang Then it spread throughout the city of Los Angeles, creating an uproar.All kinds of speculation swarmed in, and some even said that Young Master Mei hated Steward Wang for being bound to him on weekdays, and executed him in the absence of Commander Mei. There were different opinions, but only the most truthful words were not believed.

Because Butler Wang committed suicide, it was a joke to say it, no one would think that an old butler who held the power of the Mei family would live impatiently, but there were two exceptions, that is Mr. Bai and the old Taoist who were drinking in the tavern , the two of them sat there looking very leisurely, but the content of the conversation was not leisurely at all.

"This incident was obviously done by people from the Falcon Hall. Is the Taoist priest still in the mood to drink here?" Mr. Bai asked lightly.

"You can sit down and drink, why can't I." The old Taoist still held the wine jar and said, "Besides, Falcon Hall has nothing to do with me."

"Twenty years ago, the Taoist priest who traveled around the world and was famous all over the world, now says that he has nothing to do with Falcon Hall." Mr. Bai smiled and said: "I will not forget it. If it weren't for you back then Injure Liu Jingting, the master of the Falcon Hall, even Xiao Yanzi will not be able to get away."

"I just couldn't understand that old thing's vicious way of not sparing even a child, so I acted in a moment of confusion." The old Taoist didn't take it seriously, and said: "It has nothing to do with your Qi Palace."

"It doesn't matter what the Taoist chief said. Back then, the teacher was harmed by the Falcon Hall, and it was the Taoist chief who made me revenge. Bai will remember this kindness." He said very politely.

The old Taoist didn't appreciate it, he held up the wine jar, and said: "Do you remember, it has nothing to do with me as an old Taoist, what do you think about the death of the general manager?"

"This is a bit beyond my expectation." Mr. Bai frowned slightly, and said: "20 years ago, when I was working in the Qi Palace, I also made friends with this little father-in-law. Capable, quite strategic, nearly 20 years have passed, and he was able to hide people like Mei Shichang to death, which shows that this person is not simple, and it is hard to believe that he died so easily."

"You mean, he is not dead?" the old Taoist asked casually.

"It's not certain yet, but it should be clear tonight. However, one thing is certain now, Falcon probably doesn't know the whereabouts of the son." Mr. Bai stood up, put down the wine bowl, and said: "Bai There is something else, the Taoist priest will drink slowly, so I won't accompany you."

"It's time to go!" The old Taoist waved his hand, and after Mr. Bai left, he stood up unsteadily, glanced in the direction of Meifu, and muttered to himself, "This kid is here today!" I'm afraid Ri is busy enough, do you want to go and see him..." After finishing speaking, he picked up a few wine jars beside him with one hand, and took out a bunch of copper coins from his bosom, counted and threw down a few, and put Put away the rest of the body, and then took a drunken step and walked in the direction of Meifu.

Naturally, the two of them were not the only ones who cared about Steward Wang's life and death. In the private house not far from Mei Mansion, Xia Chuyue had a beautiful face full of doubts, standing in front of the house door, as if she was waiting for someone.After a while, her close maid quietly pushed open the back door and walked in, whispering in her ear: "Ma'am, this servant has found out. Last night, the guards of Meifu brought back Steward Wang's body, but for some unknown reason , Young Master Mei sealed off the gate of the mansion, and did not mourn when he saw no visitors."

Xia Chuyue nodded and said, "Go down."

The girl agreed and quietly retreated.

Xia Chuyue frowned, and fell into deep thought.

Another group of people, that is, Qin Mu and the others, have also entered Luo City at this moment. Although Qin Mu watched Steward Wang fall into the water last night, he also believes that a person like Steward Wang will never die so easily. Yes, what's more, my kick seemed to hurt him very badly, but with his skill, it was not fatal. It must be a joke to say that a master-level master was drowned so easily.

All of a sudden, all forces gathered in Luo City, undercurrents surged, and the focus was all on the Mei Mansion.

In the prefect's mansion, Situ Lin'er told Situ Qing everything as soon as she returned.She thought her father would take some measures, but found that her father didn't care about this matter, so she just answered casually, got it, got up and left, and ignored it.

Situ Lin'er was a little puzzled by her father's reaction. After thinking about it, she felt that this matter was not simple. Everyone in Los Angeles knew the status of Butler Wang in the Mei Mansion. Sometimes, he was even able to participate in major events in northern Xinjiang. A sudden death of a person will inevitably involve a lot of troubles. It is unreasonable that my father's reaction is no different from the death of an ordinary housekeeper.

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out. After lunch, Situ Lin'er came to Situ Qing's residence again, and brought up the matter again: "Father, Lin'er thinks we should take precautions against this matter. You and Mei Shichang have been together for many years. Discord, what if people from northern Xinjiang come to trouble us."

Situ Qing glanced at Situ Lin'er indifferently, and said: "Lin'er, as a father, I know that you are thoughtful, so you don't have to use this to provoke me. No matter how smart you are, you are only a woman after all. What is involved in this matter? , we haven't figured it out yet, if we act rashly, not only our family will be implicated, but it may also be detrimental to the entire Situ family."

Situ Lin'er was slightly taken aback. She knew that her father seemed to be a reckless person, but he was actually very delicate, especially when it came to dealing with major issues. It's normal, but he doesn't understand why the Situ family is involved in this matter.Can't help but ask: "Father, is it really that serious?"

"Although I can't tell at this time." Situ Qing shook his head and said, "Lin'er, you are a woman, you are too smart, this is not necessarily a good thing, in fact, sometimes a father would rather you be like your sister , I only know how to play all day long..." At this point, Situ Qing sighed softly, and said: "It's a pity that your elder brother is too straightforward. If he is half as smart as you, I can rest assured as a father. In the future, this kind of You can talk to your elder brother about it, so you don't have to come to me." After finishing speaking, Situ Qing waved his hands to signal Situ Lin'er to step back, and then fell silent.

Situ Lin'er came out in a daze, just in time to bump into Situ Xiong, saw her, Situ Xiong rushed up to meet her, and said, "I've been looking for you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to come here, come with me."

"Where are you going?" Situ Liner wondered.

"Go to Mei Mansion." Situ Xiong said anxiously: "Yesterday, I drank a little too much. Today I think about it carefully, the more I think about it, the more something is wrong. Such a big thing happened in Mei Mansion, Brother Shaochuan must be busy alone. Come on, let's help."

"How can we help?" Situ Lin'er frowned.

"It's good to have someone else." Situ Xiong pulled Situ Lin'er's arm involuntarily, and said, "I wanted to go alone, but after thinking about it, I think I should take you with me. That girl Yu'er is going It can only add to the chaos, and you might be able to give an idea when you go."

Situ Lin'er pushed Situ Xiong's hand away, and said, "Brother, I know you are impatient, but Young Master Mei is not a brainless person. It's not easy for us to interfere in other people's family affairs, and father will not agree."

The two were talking, when they saw Situ Qing coming out of the house, holding a stick in his hand, and yelling at him from a distance, saying: "If you dare to let me out of this door, I will interrupt you!" legs."

Situ Xiong saw sweat on his forehead, and ran towards his room in a hurry.
