The young man was so anxious that he no longer cared about whether his posture was elegant or not. He stepped back a few steps, knocking the table upside down and making it a mess.
Seeing his embarrassment, Lou Shaokang burst out laughing.
The third child stepped forward and was about to take the young man away. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got closer, the white shadow on the ground shook, and countless powder rushed into his eyes, nose, and mouth. He was suffocated for a moment, and then his eyes were in severe pain, as if it was like ten thousand
It's normal for two steel needles to penetrate at the same time.
When he wanted to open his mouth and scream, his mouth was full of powder, and his throat was choked, and he couldn't scream anymore. This turn of events was so unexpected that even though he was experienced in the world, he was still flustered.
"Vegetable oil, quickly find me vegetable oil..."
The third child roared like a beast, and quicklime boiled when it came into contact with water. If he was not treated in time, his eyes would be burned out.
Fortunately, this was a restaurant, so it was easy to find some vegetable oil, but it was so confusing that the waiter took the third child to wash his eyes.
Chen Chang and others looked on in shock. The young man used quicklime out of desperation, and the quicklime had already been prepared in the sleeves of his robe.
Seeing that his men had suffered a huge loss, Lou Shaokang became even more furious. After greeting him repeatedly, seven or eight servants immediately poured in from the door. The first few were holding short sticks, and the two behind were holding crossbows.
Although such weapons are prohibited by the government, it is not uncommon for some wealthy families to use close-range hand crossbows, daggers and other self-defense weapons in order to guard their homes and courtyards, and the government turns a blind eye.
The two sides were only about ten steps apart. With such a close distance, the young man could not escape at all. He immediately froze on the spot, unable to get off the tiger.
As soon as Lou Shaokang gave the order, servants came forward to surround him and tied him up without any explanation.
Lou Shaokang sneered and said to the young man: "Hmph, I think your identity is suspicious, so I will send you to the government office soon. If you have anything to say, please go to the lobby and say it."
The young man struggled hard and said angrily: "You kidnapped me today, but it won't be that easy to let me go!"
Lou Shaokang looked at the young man and then at the people in the restaurant. The fat on his face trembled and he said: "Did you see, this is what you will get for daring to go against me! You'd better be honest. Who can
If you make me unhappy, please invite him to sit in the lobby of the Yamen."
Chen Chang felt a little frightened when he saw that his future "brother-in-law" was so powerful at the moment.
At this moment, more than twenty black-clothed soldiers shouted outside the restaurant and quickly surrounded everyone. The leader was a middle-aged man. His face was as cold as water. He stepped forward and shouted:
He shouted: "The official is waiting to handle the case. Please stand aside with your hands down and wait for questioning. Otherwise, I will label you a spy and kill you on the spot!"
To his left and right, there were two soldiers on each side holding hard crossbows, ready with arrows ready, full of murderous intent. The tips of these crossbow arrows were shining with cold light, and they were much sharper than those of the Lou family.
When they arrived, no one really dared to move rashly, otherwise a misunderstanding would lead to a lot of arrows being fired. No matter how skilled you are, you may not be able to escape those sharp arrows.
Chen Changshui Ling'er looked at each other and smiled bitterly. It was really a wave of ups and downs. I wanted to choose a small restaurant in a remote place, but I didn't expect that after you sang, I came on the stage. There were so many scenes in it.
Thinking that he didn't have any evidence to prove his identity, and Shui Ling'er's identity also had many inconveniences, I couldn't help but feel uneasy.
But the situation is unclear at the moment, and the two of them dare not move arbitrarily, so they can only wait and see what happens.
When Lou Shaokang saw the visitor over there, he immediately smiled and said, "Master Jiang, why are you here?"
The name of Mr. Jiang in his mouth is Jiang Yong, and he is an official specializing in intelligence under the West City Defense Chief.
During the Northern Wei Dynasty, Emperor Wencheng Tuoba Jun appointed more internal and external waiting officials to monitor the various prefectures and towns outside Cao Cao. As a result, some incognito officials were mixed up in the official records, in order to prevent hundreds of officials from being defected.
With the words of the emperor, Guan Guan became a spy agency that had begun to achieve "professional standards" and had great power. By the time of Emperor Xiaowen, Guan Guan was dismissed and the number had grown into a huge organization with one or two thousand people.
The Great Zhou Dynasty succeeded the Western Wei Dynasty, and the Western Wei Dynasty succeeded the Northern Wei Dynasty. Although the waiting officers were abolished, their duties were still there, but they were not as prestigious as before.
Regarding Jiang Yong's arrival, Lou Shaokang was not as welcoming as he appeared on the surface. Although Jiang Yong's official position was not as good as that of a school captain, his power was astonishing.
With the appearance of this person, Lou Shaokang had to temporarily put aside the idea of taking advantage of Ling'er's idea.
"Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Lou!" Jiang Yong knew Lou Shaokang. In addition to the reputation of the Lou family, Lou Shaokang's body shape was also one of the factors that made him highly recognizable.
Lou Shaokang smiled so hard that his face turned into a meat bun and said: "Master Jiang, you came just in time. I caught a traitor in this restaurant and was about to send him to the government."
In fact, Jiang Yong was not a member of the Hou Liang government. His boss was the defense chief in the west of the city and belonged to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
But Lou Shaokang knew very well that although Jiangling was under the rule of Emperor Xiao, the master of defense still had the final say.
When the bound young man saw the murderous waiting officers, instead of being afraid, he struggled even more fiercely: "Hey, let me go quickly, otherwise you will regret it."
"That officer named Jiang, please don't listen to what Lou says. I just want to leave here as soon as possible, so he wants to treat me as a spy. What's the point of this?"
"Isn't it possible that a small businessman can replace you waiting officers in the investigation?..."
Jiang Yong saw that although he was rude, before he found out the details of the other party, his face was still as dark as water, and he could not see any disturbance.
"You are bold and unruly, and you have no law!" Lou Shaokang shouted loudly with his thunderous voice, pointing his halberd, "You are unknown and sneaky. I just delayed everyone's time for a moment. Why can't you wait? Aren't you afraid?
Revealing one’s flaws in front of everyone.”
The young man frowned and asked: "You are a small businessman, neither an official nor a official. I have something to do at home, do I need your permission before I can leave? What is the truth about this?"

"Shut up! How dare you make excuses in front of Mr. Jiang. I tell you that Mr. Jiang deals with people like you every day. How can you hide the truth from him?"
"Huh, besides, when we get to the execution chamber of the waiting officer and all kinds of severe punishments are imposed, are we afraid that you won't tell the truth?"
"You..." The young man was so angry that he was trembling all over. "In broad daylight, you... you... you actually use business as an official like this? Is there no royal law in the world?"
Lou Shaokang glanced at Jiang Yong and saw that he did not stop him. He became even more arrogant and shouted sternly at the young man: "That's why you have no law and you actually acted like a spy! Come on, you got into this place in Jiangling."
"What exactly do you want?"
The young man's face was ashen and he turned his head and stopped talking.
Lou Shaokang glared at him, then looked at Jiang Yong in a flattering manner and said, "Sir Jiang, I will leave this person to you. I believe your methods will make him speak."
He bluffed for a while, but in front of Jiang Yong, he was naturally concerned about his status as a merchant and did not dare to continue to be arrogant.
Jiang Yong nodded slightly, waved his hand lightly, and more than a dozen of his men entered the hotel to search. Jiang Yong quietly looked at the young man in front of him, but did not ask questions.
Shui Ling'er pulled Chen Chang's clothes tightly and whispered: "What should we do? What should we do? What if we are asked about our identities later? What if I didn't follow Xiao Langjun?
Entering this restaurant together, there is still room for maneuver, but now..."
One person in front of him was the brother of Lang Jun’s fiancée, and the other was an unidentified military general. It seemed that he wanted to verify the identities of everyone present one by one.
When she became anxious, she burst into tears.
The search this time was more careful than that of the Lou family, and people became commotion.
Chen Chang saw the previous businessman not far away who was in a hurry and was sweating profusely. He picked up the teapot and drank a few sips of water.
This move immediately aroused the idea of the soldiers, and one of them shouted: "Sit down, don't move without permission."
The man checked his identity and searched himself again. There was nothing unusual, so he sat down with the teapot in his arms and took a few sips from time to time.
Lord Jiang's people were searching here, and Lou Shaokang quickly found out what he wanted to know over there.
According to shopkeeper Li's nephew, he introduced the woman and provided the address of the restaurant. Not far from the restaurant was his ancestral house, which served as a temporary tryst for the two.
Of course, the man paid him money and he would look after them both.
The two of them fled long ago after getting the news.
Shopkeeper Li was so angry that he almost lost his temper and cursed his nephew for insulting his ancestors.
Chen Chang watched all this with cold eyes. Shopkeeper Li's nephew was a typical pimp.
Since Lou Shaokang couldn't catch anyone, he said goodbye to Jiang Yong, but was stopped by Jiang Yong. He had no choice but to wait aside with other servants.
Chen Chang turned around and saw Shui Ling'er with tears streaming down his face. He couldn't help but be startled and whispered: "Don't panic, I will deal with it myself."
Just now he quietly asked a diner next to him. He already knew the duties of the waiting officer and had an idea in his mind.
"Ling'er couldn't bear to drag down Lang Jun. When asked later, Ling'er would say that she was relying on Lang Jun and had nothing to do with him."
"Will they believe it if you say that?"
"I...I..." Shui Ling'er hesitated for a while, not knowing what to say.
Chen Chang patted the back of her hand gently and stared at her tear-stained face: "You wait here, I will go and negotiate with Mr. Jiang first."
"You?" Shui Ling'er raised his head and stared blankly, with a look of surprise on his face, "He is...but..."
Thinking of Mr. Jiang's majestic authority, Shui Ling'er's legs felt a little weak.
A rather honest-looking diner next to him looked shocked when he heard this, and kindly tried to dissuade him: "This young gentleman, those waiting officers are very majestic. Thank God he didn't cause trouble for you. You took the initiative to find them and annoy them."
You can’t just get a slap in the face. Isn’t this the birthday girl who always hangs himself?”
"They are here to find the spy. Once that person is found, won't we people be fine? It won't be too late as long as you wait patiently!"
Chen Chang smiled softly: "I'm afraid they can't find out who the spy is despite all their efforts."
After speaking, he calmly walked out from among the diners, and a soldier came to stop him.
Chen Chang crossed his hands and saluted: "Please tell Mr. Jiang that Chen Chang needs to see you for something!"
