Shen Rui and Xiao Youan finally arrived at Yangzhou City after a day's journey. Looking at the city gate in front of them, they got off their horses and went to ask the soldiers guarding the city.
But with so many people coming and going in and out of the city gate, how could the soldiers remember it so clearly?
After seeing no results, the two entered the city. Xiao Youan said: "Yangzhou City is so big, we will definitely not be able to find it with just the two of us. Let's go report to the official."
Shen Rui nodded, and the two of them asked for directions and headed towards the government office.
But after they explained their purpose, they were kicked out by the yamen: "Go, go, go and play, the prefect has no time to find a sister for you."
Shen Rui was extremely angry: "Isn't the prefect the official of parents? My sister is missing. Why didn't he ignore us when we came to report the case?"
The officer snorted: "Why are you two and a half older children reporting to the official? If you want to report to the official, your family members will come. Go quickly, or we will arrest you."
Shen Rui looked stunned and was about to argue with him when Xiao Youan held his arm and said, "Don't be impulsive."
He turned back to look at the yamen officer: "If you drive us away today, you will regret it later."
After leaving these words, he dragged Shen Rui away from here.
Shen Rui said: "What should we do now?"
Xiao You'an said: "Go to the magistrate's residence and wait for him. As long as he is willing to take the case, his future will be unlimited. If we file a lawsuit against him when we return to the capital, it can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people."
Shen Rui said with a serious expression: "I don't even need to look at him. A yamen official is like this. How does this magistrate behave?
After all, I grew up in a government office. This was not the case when my father was a county magistrate. He told the gatekeeper that anyone, male or female, old or young, should report it to him.
It doesn't matter if he lies and reports, but he is afraid that the wronged person will be kept out, so when he was the county magistrate, he did everything himself, no matter how big or small, even if the people lost a chicken, he could find it back."
Xiao Youan sighed: "Master Shen is indeed a good official."
Shen Rui said: "He is also a good father. Even if he knew that I was not his biological child, he never disliked me, but I still let him down."
"Shen Rui."
Xiao Youan knew that Shen Rui was blaming himself again. He patted Shen Rui on the shoulder and said: "Cheer up, we can find my sister even if we don't rely on the government. I believe there is no perfect way."
As he spoke, he inadvertently looked up and saw a man with a scar on his face turning into the street in front of him.
He was overjoyed and hurriedly pulled Shen Rui and said, "I think I saw Scar Li, hurry up and catch up with him."
Xiao Youan took Shen Rui to chase the man, and saw the man entering a very impressive building.
The two of them were about to go in, but they were stopped by the waiter: "What are you doing here? Do you know where this place is?"
Xiao Youan looked at the word Jifeng Tower written on the plaque upstairs, and asked curiously: "Can't we enter?"
The boy laughed and said: "You two young boys, you haven't even grown your hair yet and you come to a place like this? This is the biggest romantic place in Yangzhou City, and it's not a place for you kids to come. Go quickly, go quickly." "
Xiao Youan was stunned for a moment, the land of romance? It is a place for men to have fun, and it is indeed not a place where they can come.
He frowned and said, "Let's go in and find someone. We hope that I can be accommodating."
The boy looked at them, rubbed his hands and said, "It's okay to be accommodating. Do you have any money?"
