Chapter 234 The trick
Wu Jichang personally opened the door for Chu Qing.
What surprised Chu Qing was that Wu Jichang did not wear an official uniform, but wore a crow-green bamboo pattern jacquard brocade gown, which was exactly the same as the crow-green bamboo pattern hemming of Chu Qing's silver-gray bamboo pattern narrow-sleeved shirt.
.
If these two pieces of clothing were worn together in modern times, they would definitely be regarded as couple outfits.
Moreover, Wu Jichang himself is tall and burly. He is middle-aged and has a slightly protruding belly. Not only does it not affect the overall image, but it offsets a lot of the oppressive feeling brought by his burly figure.
Regardless of whether he is a good or evil person, let’s just talk about his appearance. It can be said that he is handsome and looks much more handsome than Hu Hengqiu.
This handsome middle-aged man smiled lightly and behaved elegantly: "Sister Chu, what's the matter?"
Chu Qing had been holding back her anger for a long time, but she didn't like her attitude and exploded. However, the other person's name "Chu Meizi" didn't sound right to her ears.
"Master Wu, my subordinates know that you are here to trace the whereabouts of Princess Donglun, but it is not appropriate for your subordinates to investigate like this..." Chu Qing said straight to the point.
Wu Jichang listened with an undiminished smile while pouring hot tea for Chu Qing: "Sister, sit down and say, the tea you have here is really good. Although the taste is different from the tea in the south, after drinking it in the past few days, I think brother
My sleep is sweet and my stomach feels much better.”
After handing the tea cup to Chu Qing's hand, he patted the back of Chu Qing's hand a few times with his fingers as if unintentionally, and said: "Sister, brother, I am responsible for you and the Secret Investigation Department. You know, the princess will spend a day
If he is not arrested, the Secret Investigation Department will not be able to escape responsibility for the day."
Chu Qing said: "It was so chaotic at the time that the army was not aware of it, and the Secret Reconnaissance Department had very few manpower. How could it be considered the Secret Reconnaissance Department's fault?"
Wu Jichang took a sip of wild hemp tea, and motioned to Chu Qing to use the tea, and then said: "You can't say this. Since the Secret Intelligence Department had people in the Donglun Kingdom at that time, and the princess disappeared, it was our fault. We have to think
Do whatever you can to make up for it.”
Just talking about useless things! Chu Qing was so angry that she took a sip of tea: "Sir..."
Wu Jichang said kindly and patiently: "Just call me brother."
Chu Qing was so preoccupied with driving away these guys that he didn't notice Wu Jichang looking at him and said: "If you want to find a way to make up for it, then you should go out and look for clues!
Why are your people so entangled with these people in my family! The autumn harvest is coming soon, sir, you have already delayed a lot of things for me!"
Wu Jichang remained calm, neither angry nor angry: "Sister, you are still too young and think about things too simply. You are the only ones who have had direct contact with the princess's killer. How can you get clues without asking in detail?"
Chu Qing was short of breath and stood up, but felt a little dizzy. Could it be that she was so angry that she had high blood pressure?
Shaking his head, Chu Qing still said resolutely: "Mr. Wu! This official is not only the Deputy Qianhu of the Secret Investigation Department, but also the Cotton Officer Wailang of the Household Department. The cotton harvest is about to begin, and I need to go out and preside over the autumn harvest!
"
Wu Jichang also stood up, walked to Chu Qing's side, put his hand on Chu Qing's shoulder and gently pressed down: "Don't be anxious, sister, sit down and talk, I see if you are anxious."
Behind Wu Jichang, the door was closed silently, but Chu Qing was blocked by his body and did not notice it.
"Sister, don't worry about the autumn harvest," Wu Jichang's voice was slow and distant, as if coming from a far away place, erratic:
"No matter how big the matter is, it is not as important as your safety, sister. If Princess Donglun is not arrested and brought to justice, you and your son will not be safe for a day."
"Brother, this is also for your sake..."
"As for the autumn harvest, you can rest assured that since it is the property of our Secret Investigation Department, we will not let it go unused. My brother will take care of it for you..."
Chu Qing shook his head vigorously again. Not only did he feel dizzy, but his thinking also seemed to be short-circuited.
No, this is not high blood pressure, but poisoning?
He turned his eyes to the empty tea cup on his side, and then looked at Wu Jichang.
Because his mind was a little distracted, Chu Qing's eyes staring at Wu Jichang at this time seemed to be as blurry as drunkenness under the candlelight.
Wu Jichang's hand on Chu Qing's shoulder turned to her waist. His voice was magnetic and low, and his eyes were proud and arrogant: "Sister, you don't seem to be in a good condition, but it's because you are overworked? Lie down and rest for a while, brother.
Help you relax..."
…………
Wei Chengyi hurried to the kitchen and grabbed the arm of Bai Hua who was adding firewood: "Quick! Follow me!"
Bai Hua waved Wei Chengyi's hand away and turned around. Only his lips, which were darkened by the smoke, still had some color: "What are you doing! The fire has finally been raised, and big things are waiting for me.
!”
I was so thirsty that I didn't even have anyone to boil water, so I was called in for questioning. Even the cook asked me, "What's going on?"
Wei Chengyi stamped his foot: "Come with me quickly! Chu Qing is looking for Mr. Wu!"
Bai Hua jumped three feet high: "What? Looking for that person named Wu at night? How long have you been there?"
Wei Chengyi: "A cup of tea! Huang Rong in her room just came over and said that she has a cup of tea!"
Bai Hua ran out slowly, stopped suddenly after taking two steps, then turned around and ran towards Huang Zhong's residence.
Wei Chengyi didn't know why and hurried to follow.
"Master Huang! Uncle Huang! Father Huang!" Bai Hua shouted as soon as he ran under the eaves of veteran cadre Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong, who was massaging his feet in the room and waiting for someone to bring him foot-washing water, heard the shouting and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Damn boy! What are you shouting? It's like a devil!"
Bai Hua didn't wait for him to open the door, pushed the door open and barged in. He took Huang Zhong's arm and said, "Quick, quick, quick, if you don't save Chu Qing, she will be the one who is killed!"
Wei Chengyi also came in and held up Huang Zhong's other arm.
As soon as Huang Zhong heard that it was about Chu Qing, Huang Zhong grabbed his shoes and ran out without saying a word. As he ran, he asked, "What's going on?"
Wei Chengyi thought he was running too slowly, so he and Bai Hua just carried him away and said, "Chu Qing asked Mr. Wu why he was harassing the whole house like this!"
Bai Hua continued: "You must know the virtues of a person named Wu. No matter how powerful Chu Qing is, she is just a woman!"
Huang Zhong had at least heard about the origin of Chu Qing's imperial plaque, and couldn't help but cursed: "You two, run away quickly! Why are you still dawdling!"
…………
Chu Qing already understood what Wu Jichang was going to do.
As long as you still have a breath, you can't just surrender.
When Wu Jichang's hand was on her waist, Chu Qing's left hand seemed to want to push Wu Jichang's hand away, but was unable to do so. Instead, his right hand took out the pen from her waist. With a flick of his fingertip, the pen cap flew away.
The tip of the pen pierced Wu Jichang's throat!
But he was still affected by the poisonous tea. This stab didn't have much force and only slightly scratched the opponent's skin.
However, Wu Jichang pressed his shoulder with one hand, and the hand around his waist pushed back, while the hand on his shoulder was pushed outward. Chu Qing was pushed by this force and had to bend back, and his back touched the table.
, and the pen tip is also farther away from the opponent's neck.
Wu Jichang didn't care about the pen tip beside his neck: "Sister, I just like your temperament. Thinking about the salt fields in Linyang County, are you willing to be so ruthless to my brother?"
Chu Qing bit the flesh on his cheek, the pain and blood sobered him up: "Haha, I can't bear to part with it!"
Before he finished speaking, he bent his right leg and raised it sharply!
Although Wu Jichang has a lot of kung fu, there are always times when he uses his lower body to think about problems.
Wu Jichang had to let go of Chu Qing's waist to dodge Chu Qing's blow, but he couldn't completely dodge it.
Severe pain instantly erupted from the "Thinking Problem" position, and Wu Jichang struck with a palm. Chu Qing was unable to dodge, so he had to raise the tip of his pen to meet the opponent's palm.
Chapter completed!
