Chapter 54 Wang Ziteng's First Appearance

In the west city of Shenjing.

The current Jingying Jiedu Envoy, Wang Ziteng, who was about to go to bed, immediately dressed neatly and came to the Jingying Jiedu Envoy's yamen after receiving the report from his subordinates.

It had been many years since such a major kidnapping case had occurred in the capital, and it happened again during his tenure, so he had to pay attention to it.

Walking into the yamen squad room, he saw the guerrilla general Xie Jing was already sitting in it.

"The final general has seen Mr. Wang."

Wang Ziteng asked in surprise: "Brother Xie is still here so late, could it be because of the kidnapping case in the capital?"

Xie Jing replied: "That's right, it's because the general was not strict in discipline. The incident this time was all caused by my son. If something happened to the child of Jia's family, how can I have the face to see him in the future?" Your Majesty."

Wang Ziteng said: "Brother Xie, don't blame yourself. This is all because of rampant thieves. It really has nothing to do with your son. Please, brother Xie, don't be too harsh on your son. By the way, from what brother Xie said, could it be that the Ningguo Mansion was kidnapped this time?" After Jinggong?"

"It's the son of Jinggong Laolai, named Jia Qing."

"It turned out to be him. By the way, brother Xie, can you make arrangements?" Wang Ziteng asked.

"The last general has dispatched a battalion of serving sergeants, and dispatched them to various cities in the capital to investigate. He also notified Lord Ma Siqiu, the soldier of the five cities, to ask him to keep an eye on the gates of the capital, and he must not let the thieves out of the city. .”

Wang Ziteng frowned, and then relaxed.According to the rules, if you want to mobilize so many troops, you have to get his order first. Xie Jing has obviously surpassed this time!However, he also knew that, regardless of how polite Xie Jing was to him on the surface, in fact, these veterans in the army were somewhat dissatisfied with him as a literati in charge of an army alone, not to mention that Xie Jing's background was even stronger than his. deep!

But he is able to sit in a high position with his own ability, so he still has room for others. As long as these grievances are not to the extent of bad things, he can ignore them.

"Have you ever reported to the palace?"

Xie Jing said: "This last general dares to be negligent. As soon as the torch is lit, the last general's memorial will enter the palace."

Wang Ziteng nodded to express his satisfaction. There was such a sudden transfer of military power in Beijing. If the palace didn't know about the situation, something serious would happen!

"Brother Xie, what do you think of the kidnapping of Lord Jing's son by the thieves?"

Xie Jing replied truthfully: "This last general really doesn't know. According to my evil son, the gang suddenly attacked them, but they didn't seriously hurt them. After the thieves were gone, they discovered that Jing Gong's son was gone."

Hearing what Xie Jing said, Wang Ziteng had some confidence in his mind. It seems that this group of people may not be some vicious people, and there may be some special reasons for the kidnapping.However, this trend must not last long, and must be dealt with seriously, so as not to cause troubles in Beijing in the future by all kinds of forces.

Ningrong Street, Ningguo Mansion, as Jia Jing's scolding sounded from Wangyue Residence, which had been silent for many years, all the servants of Ningguo Mansion headed by Lai Sheng were summoned, and the originally quiet Ningguo Mansion became noisy.

In Jia Zhen's yard, a maid hurriedly walked into Jia Zhen's bedroom.

"How, do you know what's going on?" Youshi asked.

The servant girl said: "Back to grandma, I found out everything. I heard that the second master Qing was kidnapped. The master was furious and asked Mr. Lai to take someone to look for him."

"Second uncle was tied up?" Youshi stood up in surprise and said in disbelief.

Jia Zhen's focus is different from Youshi's. He sneered and said, "The second brother is lost, and the whole house is disturbed. It can be seen that our house cannot lack the second brother."

The maid next to her didn't dare to answer, You Shi looked at Jia Zhen worriedly, such words shouldn't have come from Jia Zhen's elder brother's mouth.

But You Shi knew a little about Jia Zhen's thoughts, and also knew that Jia Zhen wouldn't listen to what she said, and if she didn't do it well, she would suffer even herself.

He simply didn't answer, and said to the servant girl: "Can you find out what is the reason? Is there any whereabouts of the villain?"

"This servant doesn't know, but Mr. Lai may know."

Jia Zhen interjected, "Where is Lai Sheng now?"

"Boss Lai took the servants out of the house."

Hearing that she won't see Lai Sheng for a while, and she doesn't want to ask Jia Jing, Jia Zhen waved her hand and told the maid to go out and get ready to rest.

After Jia Zhen fell asleep, You Shi repeatedly pondered to no avail, and finally sent a maid to Jia Jing's room to ask for instructions, and returned to the room to rest after getting a "no need to worry" result.

……

The next morning, Jia Qing woke up with soreness.

It was the first time in the past five years that Jia Qing, who was subjected to this kind of torture, was almost driven crazy!In the first half of the night, I couldn't sleep at all. I yelled a few words, and after I was threatened to yell again, I blocked my mouth. I was really helpless, sleepy, and finally fell asleep.

"Ouch, my neck..."

Opening his eyes, the black cloth in front of him was still there, but the faint light visible through the black cloth told Jia Qing that it was dawn now.

"Hey, anyone? I'm thirsty!"

Realizing that there was no one in the room, Jia Qing asked unwillingly, he was really thirsty.

There was still no sound, and he was about to raise his voice again, when a cold voice rang out from outside: "Miss and Sister Luzhu have gone to meet the guests, and before leaving, please tell me that if the young master wakes up restlessly, let me beat the young master!" Dizzy. So it’s better for you to be quiet, young master.”

Listening to these emotionless words, Jia Qing had no doubts about the authenticity of her words, and was shocked. This must be one of the people who participated in arresting me.They are definitely not brothel girls!I don't know why I came to the capital, alas, I am also unlucky, but I just ran into their hands.

"Sister, can you please help me remove the cloth in front of me, it's so dark..."

"Sister, can you pour me a glass of water?"

After asking a few questions in a low voice, Jia Qing didn't get an answer. After all, Jia Qing stopped talking. What if she really knocked herself out again?
In a private room on the second floor of Yanyu Building, Xian'er, who was drinking tea alone, looked at Lu Zhu who had seen off the guest, and asked, "What do you think of Mr. Wang's words?"

Luzhu sat down and said: "Miss, I think we should listen to Mr. Wang's advice and let Young Master Jia go. Otherwise, it would be bad if we missed the leader's important matter."

Xian'er frowned and said, "It was really reckless to ask you to arrest people yesterday. But if you let him go now, will the government let it go? Instead, let him bring officers and soldiers to arrest us."

Luzhu didn't know what to do, now that there were more and more people searching outside, it was hard to guarantee that they would not come here.They came to Beijing for business, who would have encountered such trouble.

"Or we'll shut him up forever."

Luzhu was shocked: "This, it's not possible."

Thinking of that handsome boy, if the young lady killed him with a knife, she would be filled with unbearable regret, and regretted taking Jia Qing back.

"Anyway, we're done. How about we knock him out and find a way to bring him back to the headquarters?"

Seeing the vivid expression on the face of her close servant girl, Xian'er felt very amused, and said, "It's so troublesome, I'd better give it my way."

Luzhu turned her head away, expressing her dissatisfaction with Miss's cruelty.

"Okay, I'm just joking with you. Why should I kill him? Even if the government finds out, it won't be easy for us to get away? Then old man Wang is just worried that we will implicate him."

Only then did Luzhu smile, and said: "I just say that Miss is the most kind-hearted!"

"Okay, don't give me the ecstasy soup, let's go, let's go and see if he is awake."
