Zhurou

Chapter 109 Familiar
As soon as the voice came out, everyone looked over.

The guards in the courtyard shouted together: "Second master!"

Although they didn't have sharp weapons in their hands, they only held sticks, but all of them were tall and sturdy, and they still had their own rules in their actions.

The number of people inside the door almost doubled that of the people on the other side, but now they gathered into a dense mass, more than [-] people shouted at the same time, the momentum was even more frightening.

The patrols outside usually only patrol the streets to arrest robbers, prevent fires and control smoke, and seldom use knives. Wherever they have experienced such a scene, they are so shocked that they can't help but move closer, neither daring to move forward nor retreat.

The leader was pushed in front and had nowhere to hide, he could only hold the water and fire stick tightly in his hand, swallowed hard, and shouted in the direction of the person: "Who are you, do you really dare to resist arrest?"

At this time, the north wind was blowing, and the fine snow, like crushed salt particles, rustled from the dark sky.

On the dark road, a person came striding on the snow.

The man's footsteps were extremely fast, and within a few breaths, he had already reached the door.

He didn't answer, but went straight through the door.

But the guards at the gate were all nervous, no one stopped him, and when they saw him walking beside him, they hurriedly backed away to let him pass, telling him to easily pass through the crowd and enter the gate.

Several large lanterns hung under the eaves of the courtyard, and some guards held torches in their hands. The candlelight reflected the snow on the ground. Although it was not as bright as day, it was still possible to see the scene clearly.

The person who came stepped into the front yard and asked Mu Xiang: "Miss Zhao now..."

He said in his mouth, but his eyes subconsciously looked towards the direction of the inner courtyard.

Zhao Mingzhi just stepped out of the door and was meeting the man's eyes. Before he finished speaking, he blurted out: "Second brother!"

This person is Pei Yong.

When he saw Zhao Mingzhi, he stopped talking and looked at her from head to toe. Seeing that she had a full beard and tail, her complexion immediately eased a little, and he asked immediately: "It's time now, why don't you sleep after taking the medicine? Are you still running out of the house?"

Then said: "I don't wear more clothes."

After finishing speaking, he untied the lapel of the outer robe with both hands, and took off the cloak on his body.

He was about to move forward when he suddenly paused, turned to look at Mu Xiang, and handed over the cloak.

After Mu Xiang took the robe, he turned around and walked in. He walked to the gate a few steps, and asked the leader of the patrol outside the door: "Which patrol shop are you from? Since you came to my house, you even the head of the household I don't know, do you work like this on weekdays?"

Looking around again, he asked, "Who is on duty in the government office tonight? Zhang Liu or Zheng Jinsong? Ask someone to come and talk."

His tone was flat, without any harsh words, and he was still calm.

But the leader of the patrolman saw this action, he entered the door as if there was no one there, and when he came out he was extremely calm, and heard him call the chief inspector directly in charge of Jingzhao Mansion and the official in charge of protecting the people's affairs without hesitation. When he came out, his heart skipped a beat immediately, realizing that he might have kicked the iron plate this time.

It is not uncommon for the person who opened the Escort to know the officials in the government.

His tone was completely different from that of ordinary security guards, and he was too righteous. The meaning in his words was not to build a relationship with those two officers, let alone to sue those two officers, but to "call someone to come and talk".

What kind of background can you call the powerful officials in the mansion to speak?
Just judging by his appearance and demeanor, he is by no means a person who talks nonsense.

Although the leader felt that it was not good, but the arrow was on the string, halfway through the shot, how could he recover it, so he had the courage to ask, "Are you the head of the household? Is that Li Xun? I will receive a report..."

"Who reported it?" Pei Yong didn't answer, but asked instead.

The leader hesitated for a while, what should he do to avoid Chen Yan, the official who took over the official position on horseback, who was having a headache, but he heard a person in the corner yelling: "Just do some small things, why are you procrastinating like this, just give me two names and just report it." Are you scared?"

As soon as the man over there finished speaking, he flashed out from his hiding place, but it was Chen Jiu.

As he walked, he asked Pei Yong: "Are you the head of the bodyguard bureau? Today, Zhouxue Juzi saw with his own eyes that the person in the house, a female spy surnamed Zhao, stole important things from the family of the head of the Fanzhai village. She contacted Bandit Di in private, so she personally reported it, what, do you have something to say?"

Then he turned his head and shouted: "Chu Lin, what are you dawdling about, come out and recognize someone! Is it the one inside!"

As he spoke, he turned back a few steps, pulled Chu Lin out, and almost dragged him forward.

This Chen Jiu yelled loudly, but he didn't dare to rush into the door at all, but hid behind the group of patrolmen, looking inside with his thick boots on his feet.

In addition to the guards, there are only two women in the inner courtyard.

Zhao Mingzhi got up hastily, naturally he didn't have time to get the veil, so he exposed his face openly at this moment.

Chen Jiu pointed his finger at Zhao Mingzhi almost immediately, then turned his head and asked, "Is that the one? The one with warts on his face!"

But Chu Lin refused to speak, and could only hesitate and say, "I'm not sure...it's too dark right now, so I can't see clearly..."

Chen Jiu then shouted at the leader and the patrolmen, "What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you catch him quickly, so that Chu Juzi can come forward and identify him!"

After tossing about this, Zhao Mingzhi's drowsiness brewed by taking the medicine has mostly disappeared. Hearing someone mentioning himself and saying that he is a spy, he is not angry, nor does he find it ridiculous. Instead, he feels curious and can't help I want to step forward to see what happened.

Mu Xiang was putting the big cloak on her body, seeing that she couldn't stop her, so she had to hug the hem of the robe behind her.

Zhao Mingzhi stepped forward and glanced outside the door.

Although Chen and Chu were hiding behind, her eyesight was very good, and she quickly saw the face through the cracks.

The person on the left doesn't recognize him at all, but the person on the right is somewhat familiar.

She thought about it for a while, then remembered, and asked aloud, "Is the one on the opposite side Mr. Chu?"

Chu Lin had no choice but to stand up from behind and salute: "Miss Zhao."

Zhao Mingzhi asked: "I met you by chance today. At that time, you were with the second prince and princess of the Hungu tribe. You said that you saw me stealing things from the family of the head of the Fanren Village with your own eyes. You couldn't be talking about those two. stop?"

Chu Lin's face was flushed for a moment, and he stood with his arms folded, pretending to cough.

Zhao Mingzhi said again: "Yesterday, the second prince robbed me and was arrested by the officials and sent to prison. If you want to make money, go and negotiate with the Jingzhao government office. What are you doing here? I have no official title. , those who have no power and no power, can't speak, will only do a disservice."

With a few simple words, she explained the ins and outs of the day clearly.

Hearing this, Chu Lin was ashamed and said: "Fan talents have surrendered, and peace is the most important thing for both sides. Today's matter is just a misunderstanding. Miss Zhao, it's better for you..."

At the side, Chen Jiu didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted sharply: "What are you talking nonsense with a spy here, that ugly man is so mischievous...Ah!!!"

The word "weird" was not pronounced, and the word "ah" was connected with it. Chen Chen called out the circumflex feeling, but only halfway through, he suddenly pounced, and for some reason, his knees seemed to be soft. He fell to his knees with a plop, and then threw his head and face straight into the snow, and fell a dog gnawed at the mud.
