Ghosts come to the door: entangle the little lady

Chapter 35
The yamen servant took the three of them to a particularly dark prison, locked them up, and left without saying a word.

"Hey!" Gu Wanqing called out.

But the leader of the yamen servant was stingy even turning his head back, while laughing at the yamen servant beside him a few times, he said, "Let's go, how about a drink?"

"Boss, you forgot, today is the birthday of Mrs. Xiang Wangtai, we can go to have a feast of water!" Another yamen servant said fawningly.

"Oh~ I forgot, thinking that the King of Xiang is really extravagant, to hold a water banquet for the old lady's wish, and to hold it for three days and three nights, to accumulate blessings for the young master, huh...now everyone knows it , according to the rumors, the eldest young master is just..." the head of the yamen servant said, gesturing with his hand that he had already been killed.

When other people saw it, they just smiled and didn't participate in the conversation. They are relatively timid, unlike the yamen servants who have a backer, and have a relatively large background. They only have themselves, so they are naturally cautious in their words and deeds. These people don't seek wealth, they only want to live in peace and security, eat meat, drink alcohol, accept bribes, look for women, occasionally bully others, bully the weak, go home and sleep with their wives, such The little days were quite comfortable!

They chatted about eating and drinking, and where to play with women after eating and drinking, and then disappeared at the end of the prison.

"They are really shameless!" Gu Wanqing was very angry when she heard their fading away conversation, but when she saw this extremely dark prison, it smelled sour and rotten, she felt a little nauseous, what did she say yesterday She just took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and came to jail today. She was inexplicably angry, "I don't know where the idiot went, do you know that we were arrested..."

"Brother Meng should know. It's just that he has to wait for the right time to save us. I'm a little worried..." Bai Xiaosheng faintly felt an indescribable feeling in the prison, but it made his heart beat all the time. Brother, don't show up, he is worried that this is a trap set by that person.

When Meng Cangqing was guarding Gu Wanqing's room last night, an evil spirit floated in. He wanted to attack Gu Wanqing, so he fought the evil spirit, but he didn't expect the evil spirit to be very powerful. Outside the city, when he looked again, it was already dawn, and the ghost had disappeared, so he realized something was wrong. He was caught in a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and when he rushed back, he saw that Gu Wanqing and the others were still sleeping peacefully, so he was relieved for a while. tone.

He vaguely heard the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers not far away. It was very lively. He looked in that direction with a look of longing in his eyes.

He knew that today was his grandmother's birthday, but he didn't expect it to start so early.

The red lights were hung high in the Xiangwang Mansion, and there was an endless stream of guests coming and going. In addition, the team who came from other places specially came to the mansion from noon until the evening before it was completely finished. One can imagine how big the Xiangwang Mansion is. It can accommodate so many people; it is also foreseeable that the king of Xiang is quite attractive no matter whether he is in the court or in the rivers and lakes.

Meng Cangqing heard the sound early in the morning and came to the gate of King Xiang's Mansion. He kept looking at the gate from afar, hoping that his grandmother would come out today.

After waiting for a day, my grandmother did not come out, but I saw my father, who came out to greet him, with a smile on his face, but from his dark blue eye sockets and thin figure, it can be seen that during this period of time, his father has not looked like that on the surface. So happy, is it because of yourself?

Then Meng Canghai also came out, with a complacent face and a smile that seemed to be overflowing, receiving the guests with great enthusiasm.

The Meng family, the Gu family, the Zhang family, the Mo family, the Shen family, and the Leng family all arrived at the Xiangwang Mansion at the same time as if they had made an appointment. The butler continued to receive a steady stream of ordinary guests and some officials at the door.

Meng Cangqing didn't dare to go in to visit. The people who can enter Xiangwang's mansion today are either rich or noble. All the big families have come to Xiangwang's mansion to give presents and celebrate their birthdays.

Hiding in the far corner all the time, watching the number of people at the door gradually decrease until there is no one left, the big housekeeper also entered the mansion, Meng Canghai was the last to enter the mansion, leaving four people guarding the door, Meng Cangqing stared at Meng When Cang Hai entered the mansion, the ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth made his heart skip a beat, but thinking about his grandmother's birthday today, Meng Canghai wouldn't cause any trouble.

He left Xiangwang Mansion with a lot of melancholy, walked down the path, and then returned to the inn, only to find that the three of them had disappeared. He heard the people in the inn discuss what happened in the morning, and then he knew that the three of Gu Wanqing had been killed. The yamen servant took it away.

He connected the sudden appearance of the evil spirit last night with Meng Canghai's smile, and found that this was Meng Canghai's plan, and it was so despicable!

He wanted to save the three of them, but he also knew that the reason why Meng Canghai did such a harmless thing was not only to imprison the three of them, but more importantly, to lure himself to save them.

Presumably the prison has been set up now, just waiting for him to save people.

After Meng Cangqing thought about what Meng Canghai did and thought, these methods seemed simple, and he could see through them at a glance, but he still had to go into them willingly, because there were people he cared about.

The shopkeeper saw that the wind chime hanging beside him was ringing, and looked solemnly at the door of the inn. Seeing that there were no guests, he shouted: "Fuzi~ there are no guests, please close the door..."

Hearing the shopkeeper's call, the second elder brother came out after responding to the shopkeeper's call. He glanced at the wind chimes that were still vibrating, and understood in his heart. in and out.

When something like that happened in the morning, Mr. Cao took his grandson with him and left. Fortunately, the property was recovered and the inn was not compensated. The room fee was waived.

Mr. Cao originally wanted to trouble the inn, but seeing that the shopkeeper was so knowledgeable, and all the property was recovered, if he wanted to pursue something, he would inevitably lose his tongue, so he packed his luggage and changed to another inn.

The shopkeeper came to the dark room, washed his eyes with cow's tears, and saw Meng Cangqing sitting on the mahogany beside him with a gloomy expression.

"Young master?" The shopkeeper was a little timid. After all, the incident happened right under his nose, and Gu Wanqing and the others had to be arrested. He was a little guilty. Although he knew that Meng Cangqing would not do anything to him, he was not happy to see him With a gloomy face, the shopkeeper will feel scared, he has seen how Meng Cangqing punished his subordinates.

"Go and gather a group of hidden guards, I'm going to rescue them tonight." Meng Cangqing didn't pursue the shopkeeper, but ordered coldly.

"Master, is this exposing you? It's too dangerous to do this. Today's incident is clearly aimed at you." The shopkeeper is a subordinate left by Meng Cangqing's mother, and he watched Meng Cangqing grow up. She is extremely loyal to him, and puts Meng Cangqing's safety first in everything.

Meng Cangqing became like this, when he appeared in front of him for the first time, after telling him everything, he felt ashamed of his wife, not to mention how sad he was, if Meng Cangqing went to save people regardless, jump Under the trap set by Meng Canghai, does Meng Cangqing still have a chance to survive?
Absolutely not!

After saying this, he clearly saw Meng Cangqing's displeasure, but he still said: "Young master, now in the city because of Madam Tai's birthday, people from all major families have come, and some small families have also come. There used to be ghost catchers everywhere in Xiangxi city, it would be dangerous for you to go out, let alone go to prison, and it’s still these few days, if you don’t get it right, you will be taken away by those people!”

The shopkeeper chattered endlessly, hoping to persuade Meng Cangqing not to go, "It's okay if you meet the Mo family and the Leng family, but if you meet people from other aristocratic families, they won't be able to see you. Hesitant..."

Meng Cangqing frowned more and more as he listened to it, and finally couldn't take it anymore, he waved his hand, he knew Uncle De's loyalty to him, and couldn't bear to blame him, even if something like this happened today, he didn't say anything.

"Uncle Fu, do as I say..." Meng Cangqing's voice was cold, and when he finished speaking, seeing Chen De's appearance of wanting to cry without tears, he sighed, and finally gave in a step, saying: "I'm here Look outside, don't go in."

"Okay, okay, that's fine, young master, your safety is more important than anything else!" The shopkeeper was moved to tears when he heard what Meng Cangqing said. He always felt that after the young master became like this, his temperament changed a lot.

"Uncle De~" Meng Cangqing frowned when he heard what Chen De said, looked at him, and said with firm and serious eyes: "That girl named Gu Wanqing is very important to me, can I return to my own body?" Here, you still need her help, so I hope you will treat her the same way you treat me in the future."

As soon as Chen De heard Meng Cangqing call him, he saw his serious face, but he didn't expect to hear such words, he froze on the spot for a long time, and only got over his strength after a while, almost knelt down and begged for punishment: "Master, I don't want to be punished." Knowing that the girl is so important to you, it's the old slave's fault, the old slave's fault, for not protecting her..."

When Meng Cangqing appeared in front of him like this, he told him about the matter, and when he saw the three of them, he actually noticed the very beautiful Gu Wanqing, and he thought it was when Meng Cangqing was traveling abroad, I met the girl I liked so much, so I let her and two other people live here for free, waiting for the young master to come back to life. He didn't have a good impression of Gu Wanqing, maybe he was superficial, but he always felt that she was like a beggar. A girl with no background, no matter how beautiful she is, is not good enough for his young master. She never thought that there is such a relationship!
