Chapter 187: Classics and History on a Business Trip

It was not until Xu Ying was carried into the dormitory and called the doctor to deal with the stick sores that Xu Bangning came to his senses.

He took out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, changed his face and color and said to the butler: "Let's go back to Nanjing."

Although everyone's surname is Xu, if something really happens, my father is still reliable.

"Young Master, should we go by land or water?" the housekeeper asked tactfully.

"How to walk on water in a typhoon day?" Xu Bangning glanced at him.

"Prepare the car! Let's go back from Jiaxing."

Although the young master was so angry that he was really timid in the matter. Not to mention passing through Kunshan, he would not dare to walk from Nanzhili.

From Songjiang to Zhejiang, we went back to Nanjing in a big circle, just for one word, "safety".

Xu Bangning left as soon as he said he could. After an hour, the convoy set out from Afangyuan and didn't even bother to say goodbye to Xu Ying.

When he left Afang Garden, he lifted the curtain and looked back at the garden that left him countless happiness, but found that the servant was taking the plaque "Afang" with a black background and gold lettering from the lintel.

This made Xu Bangning feel a sense of ominous premonition in his heart, and he hurriedly ordered: "Go on the way."

After saying that, he put down the curtain and never dared to show his head again.

The young master was in a panic all the way, and when he heard the sound of horse hooves, he was frightened, fearing that the little devil would come to chase him.

He walked and stayed overnight along the way, entered Zhejiang like he was escaping, and left Jiaxing again. When he finally arrived in Huzhou, he breathed a little relieved.

At this time, it was hundreds of miles away from Kunshan, and the typhoon also stopped. The young master finally dared to abandon his car and change his boat, and took the waterway north to Jinling.

~~

The conversation was divided into two parts. Kunshan County blocked the water and land passages across the border and investigated the passing business trips with great fanfare, and naturally nothing was found.

In fact, Xiong Dianshi, who was responsible for public security and robbery, had long left Kunshan, and took four constables and took a small official boat to the Yangtze River through the canal and rushed to Jinling City.

After five days, Xiong Dianshi and his group arrived at Jiangdongmen Wharf.

After getting off the boat, Xiong Dianshi did not dare to knock on the gate of the Duke's Mansion rashly.

He first asked his subordinates to find an inn in the city, and prepared to touch the situation first, then wash the brush, have a good sleep, and go to the Duke of Wei's mansion tomorrow.

Traveling on business trips with public funds is so willful.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, when the five of them came to the lobby to have breakfast, they saw that everyone was wearing a pair of dark circles and looked very bad.

"Why didn't you sleep well?" Xiong Dianshi took over the duck blood vermicelli soup presented by Wang Bantou.

"Has the Fourth Master not been asleep yet?" Wang Bantou smiled bitterly.

"How can he sleep well? That's so heartless." Xiong Dianshi drank the soup.

"Haha, no." The detectives laughed with deep consent.

"That's so heartless."

While having breakfast, several constables talked about the news they heard yesterday.

"Fourth Master, I watched the wind yesterday. The people of Jinling City were afraid of the Duke's Mansion as if they were tigers."

"Yes, the Fourth Master, they said that the Xu family is in Jinling City alone, and there are thousands of wealthy slaves who are domineering."

"They even set up private halls, which is common for people to kill. Jiangning County and Yingtian Prefecture dare not take care of them."

"Oh, I heard that Duke Wei regards this young son as his lifeline and is determined to let him inherit the title. If we want to let others get married, it is probably a delusion."

Xiong Dianshi said nothing and silencedly ate the vermicelli soup in the bowl, which was exactly the same as what he found out.

After settling down yesterday, he was not idle either and went to find his fellow villager who was in the prison of the Nanjing Ministry of Justice for a drink.

After learning about his purpose, my fellow villager advised him to never get into Zhao Yanei's Diao Dang for a night. My fellow villager told Xiong Dianshi that the Xu family had done many cases over the years, and that a Xu family had never lived in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

The Xu family has been entrenched in Jinling City for 200 years, and her husband has served as the garrison of Nanjing for more than 40 years, and has the merit of supporting the late emperor.

Even if the outside world is rumored that he is useless or useless, his influence on Nanjing City has long been accumulated to an incredible level. With Duke of Wei in one day, the government could only ignore his family's affairs, let alone capture his favorite young son.

Even if the Xu family opened the door and asked him to arrest him, he could not take Xu Bangning out of Jinling City. He had to be beaten to death by the Xu family's rich slaves in the brocade clothes on the way.

My fellow villagers even speculated whether he had offended Mr. Zhao and wanted to use the Xu family's hands to get rid of him.

Xiong Dianshi thought about it carefully. He had never offended Mr. Zhao, and had been carefully flattering him. Zhao Hao should not be so crazy that he was afraid of him.

Then it can only be that he overestimates himself and wants to shake the big tree by shaking it.

I tossed and turned in bed for a night last night, but Xiong Dianshi didn't recall why he didn't refuse this job at that time.

I can only say that I believed Zhao Hao's ghost.

It was not the official order issued by the county magistrate. Why should I obey the blind command of the yamen?

"Oh..." Xiong Dianshi took his last sip of soup and stood up with his fate.

Now it’s useless to think about anything, and everyone from far away has come. How can you shrink your eggs at this time?

Even the Hall of Hell has to go in and walk in.

~~

After breakfast, Xiong Dianshi took Wang Bantou and another servant all the way to Xufu Lane on the Qinhuai River.

There is no need to inquire when you arrive at Xufu Lane, because in the huge alley, there is only one family in the Duke of Wei’s Mansion.

Xiong Xiasheng looked at the pair of big stone lions squatting outside the mansion, and it turned out to be arrogant as the young master said.

Looking up again, he looked at the four vigorous characters "The Duke of Wei's Mansion" on the ancient nanmu plaque. Xiong Dianshi felt that he was really similar to an ant.

He took a deep breath and turned to Wang Bantou and said, "Go, send a letter."

"Uh..." Wang Bantou was stunned and asked in a low voice: "Second Master, don't you show the ticket cards?"

"Let's see if the young master's letter is good first." Xiong Dianshi replied in a low voice.

What is the use of the ticket cards in Kunshan County in Jinling City? If Zhao Hao's letter doesn't care about it, it's better for everyone to go home early to avoid being retaliated by the Xu family.

Wang Banto took the letter written by the young master and walked to the gate of Xu's mansion with a tough bullet. Before he could step on the steps, he was drunk by the Haonu who was guarding the gate.

"Don't stay, is this a place you can step on?!"

Wang Bantou was so scared that he quickly retracted his feet hanging in the air and smiled at the several noble slaves standing on the steps, saying, "I have invited you, the young Kunshan County thief leader Wang Chao, who is here to send a letter to the prince at the order of our yamen."

The so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's rank and the Duke's mansion all regard themselves as the fourth-rank.

Several Haonu looked at him directly, and said to Wang Chao with his belly button: "Where did the wandering toad come here and make noise?"

"The magistrate's son is worthy of being named Yanei? I'm gonna!" The nobles burst into laughter.

"Gongbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbingbing

Fortunately, Wang Bantou was aware of his skills, and he was cruel and took out all the five taels of silver funds, and presented them with the letter.

The other party reluctantly couldn't take it down, but saw Wang Bantou still standing there.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

"This... Sir, wait for the grandpa to reply to my grandpa." Wang Bantou smiled embarrassedly.

"What do you think?" Haonu Bai said with a glance: "When will the prince read it? Whether you reply or not, is it you have the final say or I have the final say?"

"It doesn't count..." Wang Bantou shrank his neck.

"Go away quickly, don't be inconvenient here." Haonu waved his hand like a flies.

"When will there be a letter?"

"Let's talk about it in two days."

Xiong Dianshi had no choice but to live in the store with his subordinates and wait for the letter.
