Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 411 Persecution (Part Two)
"If I don't do it, no one can." Wu Chen lowered his head.

The big head let out an 'oh'.

"Moreover, Ximo is on me now. Even if I don't want to participate, those people will not let me go. If you don't let me go, you won't let you go. I won't take the blame for them. Last night was high." Wen, I don’t know who it will be tomorrow night.”

"Then go beat them up!" Da Tou clenched his fist.

Wu Chen turned to look at Da Tou: "You follow me, I'm afraid..."

"You should be really afraid if I don't follow you." Datou said seriously: "I have thought about this matter carefully. I am not afraid of brothers' jokes. I was very sad at Qianfo Temple last night. I know what I am like. I have never been afraid of it. I don’t dare to think too much, but if Pinggu is like me, can I think about it?"

Wu Chen was stunned.

"Oh, Aunt Ping would rather stay with that old woman than come back. What else do you think I have? I am not hungry or cold now. It all depends on you. If you are gone, I will still be the beggar on the street. , It’s boring, it’s really boring.”

"No! Let's not say whether anything will happen to me. As long as Big Brother and the others are still here, you will no longer live on the streets..."

"I know, but that's different! Besides, if you are gone, what good do you think the people who follow you can do? Whatever the officials dare not do or lose their temper because of you, they will be put double by your side. With those people, it is useless no matter how far Yu Shian runs."

Wu Chen's heart tightened, and he suddenly thought that if he left here and returned to his previous life, to the people here, he would be dead, and what the big head said might really happen.

Datou saw Wu Chen's solemn expression and hurriedly continued:

"So you have to live first. Me following you is indeed a bit of a hindrance, but I also have advantages. I can predict danger, and at least I can give you a warning. I have thought about it. Go and get me a set of armor, and I will wear it. , with the boss and the others protecting me, if the enemy attacks me, it will help you share the force. You can also show your strength. With your ability, who can withstand it? Turn around and save me. It’s not just a matter of time.”

"Who did you listen to these words?"

Datou chuckled and said, "Gu Zuoxian will tell me about famous battles in history. I think it's very interesting."

Wu Chen sighed and said, "You don't have to guard me. I'll just take you. But I want to sleep now. When I wake up, I will go to the palace to ask for money and people from the officials. If I really want to leave, the fastest it will be tonight."

Datou said no more, hugged the baggage and left.

……

Wu Chen lay on the bed and didn't fall asleep for a long time. He always felt like he had fallen into Lao Hei's trap. At first, he said that he was only responsible for sending away ghosts. How could he become a pillar of the country by sending away ghosts? Already?

Lao Hei had always told him not to be in love with his children, otherwise it would be troublesome when leaving. He took this seriously, so he always kept his heart closed. Even if he had the chance to see someone's young lady, he would not take a second look at her.

But Lao Hei didn't tell him not to have deep brotherhood. Now, as Datou said, if he really leaves, the brothers around him will definitely be used by Li Heng to vent their anger.

Wu Chen covered his head with the quilt. He secretly regretted it. If he had known this, why would he have spoken like that to Li Heng?Seeing that Li Hengxin was dissatisfied and couldn't do anything about him, it felt good at the time, but what about the future?

In a daze, Wu Chen seemed to be asleep. He wanted to see Lao Hei and ask him clearly, but Lao Hei didn't come.

……

When Wu Chen woke up, it was past noon, and Xu Da and Yu Shian were waiting in the hall.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Wu Chen rubbed his eyes and looked at Yu Shi'an and asked.

Yu Shi'an smiled and said, "I know you don't want me to follow you, but I received a decree in the morning. The officials ordered me to set off for Shuangxi Village tomorrow morning. The decree said that five hundred soldiers were deployed nearby. I will lead the troops when I arrive. Capture Shuangxi Village." Wu Chen's mind immediately cleared up.

"The officials want you to die!" Wu Chen said with a serious face.

But Yu Shian said: "I think he is forcing you to leave as soon as possible."

Xu Da straightened his back, and Wu Chen groaned and said, "Brother, don't even think about it. You can't go with me on this errand."

"Why?"

"Second brother's family needs someone to take care of it."

"If you are not in Kyoto, then Ximo is not in Kyoto, and the sophomore family will not be in danger. With Gu Shiming taking care of you, why do you need me? Besides, what use can I do even if I am here?"

Wu Chen said nothing, and the fourth child came in with a copper basin. Wu Chen washed himself briefly, and then the fourth child went down to serve the food.

"This errand is no better than before. Not only is Shuangxi Village's terrain rugged, but the people in the village are good at sorcery. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it too much."

Yu Shi'an smiled freely and said, "It's good now. I don't have to waste words. Yuan Niang and the others will set off this afternoon, and the sophomore family can move in at a different date. In this way, I have nothing to worry about."

"This is just a lie to yourself, are you worried? As long as your family is still there, you can't let go of your worries!" Wu Chen poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.

Yu Shi'an smiled bitterly and said: "I should have died a long time ago. Living these extra days allows me to make arrangements for my family. I am very satisfied."

Xu Da said anxiously: "Don't force me to switch to the army now!"

Wu Chen scratched his forehead, feeling that his anger towards Li Heng had reached the extreme. Originally, Li Heng was not willing for Wu Chen to go to Shuangxi Village. After Wu Chen analyzed that Li Shen might be in Shuangxi Village, Li Heng could not sit still. Stop, this is forcing Wu Chen to leave as soon as possible.

At this time, the fourth child and the eldest child came in with food. After placing the food on the table, the eldest child bowed and said: "Wherever the monarch goes, we will go."

Just when Wu Chen was about to ask these brothers where they got the news, the sounds of Gu Shiming and Gu You arguing came from the courtyard.

Gu Shiming said angrily: "...I can't beat you, but I am also following orders. If you dare to stop me, you are committing a heinous crime!"

"I'll say it again, now that we live in Wu Chen's home, if you want to take my brother away, you must ask Wu Chen first."

As soon as Gu You's voice fell, the door was pushed open, and Gu You carried Gu Shiming into the house angrily.

Wu Chen frowned and looked at Gu Shiming, who didn't look like a young master. He smiled and asked, "You originally wanted to take Gu Zuo away secretly, but you forgot that he has a younger brother named Gu You."

Gu You sent Gu Shiming to the ground, and Gu Shiming threw himself to the ground. Gu Shiming yelled twice, stood up angrily, pointed at Gu You and said angrily: "If I hadn't been able to beat you, you wouldn't be able to beat you now." already dead!"

"So you have to thank Gu You, he can beat you, and you are still alive." Wu Chen picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"They are ignorant, are you confused too? I can't stop the officials from meeting Gu Zuo?" Gu Shiming asked loudly, jumping on his feet.
