Zhang Kui's appearance made the temple feel a lot duller. Except for Hong Qi, everyone else became more behaved, bowed their heads, and did not dare to make any more moves.
"Godfather." Hong Qi shouted, came to Zhang Kui, and helped him to Xia Shang.
"Master Xia, I have made it clear before. I will help you one last time, and we will forget it."
Xia Shang nodded: "Yes, I said you helped me kill the ghost-faced man, and we will no longer have anything to do with each other. And later on, you tried to save me in front of the criminal department, which can be regarded as the most benevolent thing."
"It's good that you haven't forgotten, sir."
"But don't forget. The cancellation I am talking about is the cancellation between you and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It should have been my idea when you established the beggar gang, right? Moreover, from the very beginning, this beggar gang was
It's not your private property, I just let you manage it for me. I have given you enough trust by not intervening in the Beggar Clan's affairs over the years."
Hong Qi frowned after hearing this and glanced at Zhang Kui gently.
Zhang Kui wears an iron mask, and no one knows his expression. All that can be seen is a pair of dark eyes, which always gives people an inexplicable and cold feeling of fear.
Zhang Kui didn't say anything. After a pause, he whispered: "Let's treat it as a deal this time."
After saying that, Zhang Kui shook off Hong Qi's hand and turned around to leave.
Looking at Zhang Kui's back, Xia Shang added: "Yes, after you find the person who harmed you, I can help you take revenge."
Zhang Kui stopped and stood there like a wooden stake for a long time. In the end, he didn't say anything and kept walking in his original posture.
Xia Shang knew what Zhang Kui had been planning these years, and why he didn't follow the arrangements in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In fact, all the reasons were attributed to the hatred in his heart.
Hating the woman who made him what he is today, Zhang Kui thinks about revenge every moment, and is unwilling to waste even a minute on anything other than revenge.
It's just that the woman who harmed him in the first place was not an ordinary person, and she was also very cunning.
Zhang Kui used the Beggar Gang to investigate for several years, but the information he got was fragmentary.
However, Xia Shang got news from Chunjiao that Zhang Kui had determined that the woman who harmed him was Jinniang, the former head of the Chunfang Division.
This Jin Niang is not only being investigated by Zhang Kui, but also by the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Have been tracing.
But even now, Jinniang's whereabouts are still unclear. It is only confirmed that she is in the capital and working for Li Xiangyang behind the scenes.
However, as the situation in the capital changes and Li Xiangyang becomes the crown prince, there will be more and more enemies behind him. Those people hiding behind Li Xiangyang will probably leak out one by one. That Jin Niang must also be hiding.
In just a few days.
Xia Shang stopped staying and told Hong Qi to take the news to the Hanlin Academy if he had any news. Then he took Yu Nu all the way to the Hanlin Academy.
When we returned to Hanlin Academy, it was already evening.
Xia Shang took a look at the long room where the case files were piled up, and saw Lin Yongshi still studying records on a pile of burned pages. He did not see Lin Qingzhu, who had probably gone home.
The officials of the Hanlin Academy have gradually become accustomed to Xia Shang. They know that this gentleman is a very special person in the Hanlin Academy. No one wants to have anything to do with him, so no one greets him when he gets the chance. They only see his appearance next to him.
The astonishing Jade slave will flash a look of surprise afterwards.
The room Xia Shang lived in was at the innermost part of the Hanlin Academy. He first took Yu Nu around the Hanlin Academy to get familiar with the environment, and then returned to the room.
I don't know who had been in the house. The brazier was burning and it was warm. Xia Shang didn't pay attention.
After all, this is a public residence, so it is normal for someone to come in and clean the house.
Yunu looked at everything in the hut. It was much simpler than the previous home. It had two rooms inside and outside, and only one bed.
"Master, do you live in such a simple place?"
"Let's do this for the time being. The room next door is unoccupied. I'll go and tell someone later that the room will be vacated for you."
"Why do I have to live in a separate room? The bed inside is quite big, so I can share it with the owner."
"Well... there are so many people here, I'm afraid it's not convenient."
"Oh... everything is up to the master's arrangement."
I don't know whether Yu Nu was disappointed or had some other emotion, so he lowered his head slightly and remained silent for a while.
Looking at Yu Nu, Xia Shang suddenly thought of the stinky face of Liao Baizhi. Thinking about that guy with a pockmarked face and cracked melons, but he looked so affectionate and loyal to Yu Nu, he felt disgusted in his heart.
I felt a little irritated for no reason. I didn't plan to ask more questions at first, but I couldn't help but ask.
"What is your relationship with that Liao Baizhi?"
Hearing this question, Yu Nu raised his head and seemed a little embarrassed: "Master, Yu Nu has nothing to do with him."
"Really? But I see why he treats you very well?"
Yu Nu's brows furrowed: "I really want to say that in the past, the young master was really attentive to Yu Nu, and never treated Yu Nu as a servant. But from the beginning to the end, Yu Nu had no feelings for the young master, let alone
Pure and innocent..."
"Why? Don't you care about the people you live with today?"
"Because...because...the young master's appearance...is really not what Yu Nu likes..." As he said that, Yu Nu lowered his head again and blushed.
Xia Shang was stunned. He never expected that he would get such an answer in the end. Was it because of her looks? However, this answer was quite true. If he had met an ugly girl, no matter how good her quality was, she would probably be the only one in the end.
Very reluctantly.
"But, now that you keep calling me 'Master', don't you feel aggrieved? There is obviously a chance to regain your freedom."
"If it were anyone else, Yu Slave might have some grievances, but Master..." Yu Slave's face turned redder, and she glanced at Xia Shang, "Master is a good-looking person, and Jade Slave likes..."
Xia Shang was stunned again, touched his face, and suddenly smiled.
This is not a perfect answer, but it makes people feel happy after hearing it. The crushing appearance is simple and direct, giving people the most primitive feeling of pleasure.
"Oh, when it comes to the importance of looks!" Xia Shang pinched his face hard. He had never felt that his face was so important.
After Yu Nu finished speaking, she was not happy. She was a little shy and lowered her head.
"Yu Nu, what's wrong with you?"
"Master, you don't think Jade Slave is very... superficial, do you?"
"Ha..." Xia Shang smiled and hugged Yu Nu, "She is indeed superficial. For such a superficial woman, I can't be too elegant. I must be superficial."
With that said, Xia Shang tore off Jade Slave's coat with one hand, hugged the huddled delicate body, and walked straight to the bed in the back room with a smirk on his face, and threw Jade Slave on the bed.
"Yeah!" Yu Nu exclaimed.
But then there seemed to be another voice: "Ah..."
