Chapter 245 Where is the bandit’s body?
"Eunuch Zhang?"
When Jiang Chen heard Xia Ningxiang's words, he looked puzzled.
"Haha~Yes, Eunuch Zhang!"
Xia Ningxiang smiled seductively and said, "Brother, you don't know Eunuch Zhang, do you?"
"Haha, sister doesn't believe it~"
As she spoke, Xia Ningxiang stared at Jiang Chen intently.
If there was anything wrong with Jiang Chen's expression, Xia Ningxiang would notice it immediately!
Jiang Chen naturally knew that Xia Ningxiang must be testing him!
If the other party is really sure that he has surrendered to Eunuch Zhang, will he still contact him?
"Haha, I really don't understand what Sister Xia said."
"I only know that Eunuch Zhang is a figure in the imperial court. As for him valuing me, that is impossible."
"After all, I have never met Eunuch Zhang."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
"Oh~Brother, have you really never met Eunuch Zhang?"
"In that case, I misunderstood."
When Xia Ningxiang saw Jiang Chen's expression, she looked thoughtful.
"Sister, I'm afraid the reason you asked me to come here today is not just because of my relationship with Eunuch Zhang, right?"
"I don't know what instructions my sister has, so why not just tell me directly?" Jiang Chen said with a faint smile.
"Hehe~ It's not really an order, but I heard about your honeycomb charcoal and was very interested in it, so... I came here to take a look."
"I wonder if you, brother, are willing to cooperate with me to sell this honeycomb charcoal?" Xia Ningxiang said with a charming smile.
"So my sister is after the honeycomb charcoal. The honeycomb charcoal..."
Jiang Chen wanted to refuse politely.
But before he could finish his words, Xia Ningxiang said, "Good brother, your honeycomb charcoal is a good thing. Maybe you can use it to get a job~"
"Don't you want to enter the court, don't you want to... rise to prominence?"
……
When Jiang Chen heard what Xia Ningxiang said, he was shocked!
Xia Ningxiang’s bargaining chips are not low!
However, Jiang Chen currently has no intention of becoming an official in the court!
And even if Jiang Chen had it, couldn’t his two godfathers easily arrange it?
"Why? Brother, don't you want to be an official and bring honor to the family?"
"Do you know how many people in Dajing want to be officials?"
Xia Ningxiang looked at Jiang Chen's hesitation and tried to persuade him again.
At the same time, she moved closer to Jiang Chen.
Even the fragrance from those red lips had already hit Jiang Chen's face.
In fact, Xia Ningxiang would not do this for the sake of honeycomb charcoal.
But Xia Ningxiang didn't know why, she always felt that Jiang Chen had a unique charm. The first time she saw Jiang Chen, she wanted to get close to him.
But Jiang Chen was panicking at this time.
If Xia Ningxiang had another identity, he wouldn't mind taking advantage of her.
However, Xia Ningxiang is Cai Jing's wife. Even if she is beautiful, he wouldn't dare to do that!
"Sister Xia, this matter is too big. I, your younger brother, need to think about it. Please give me some time!" Jiang Chen said to Xia Ningxiang with a serious face.
"Haha~Okay, I believe you, I'll think about it for a few days, but... don't lie to me~"
"Otherwise, I will be sad~"
Xia Ningxiang said this, revealing her charming smile again.
"Haha, definitely not."
Jiang Chen smiled awkwardly, then started drinking with Xia Ningxiang.
……
At the same time, at the gate of Jinchuan County.
Because it was late at night, the city gate of Jinchuan County had been closed, and it was extremely quiet near the city gate!
But just when the soldiers guarding the city were dozing off, a burst of hurried horse hooves suddenly rang out!
"Boom!"
"What's going on!?"
"It sounds like the sound of horse hooves! Be careful, everyone!"
The soldiers woke up instantly!
They hurriedly looked outside the city!
I saw a group of people coming on the originally quiet road. I don’t know when.
At a quick glance, there are... at least twenty people!
"who!?"
"stop!"
"The city gates are closed and under martial law! Do not approach!"
The soldiers shouted and drew their bows and arrows!
"Don't shoot! It's me! Xue Da!"
"I came back on the orders of Lord Xue!"
Xue Da shouted at the city wall!
"Xue Da!?"
When the soldiers on the city wall heard this name, they were all stunned!
They had heard of Xue Da's name, and it was said that he was the commander of Xue Da's personal guards.
However, didn’t Mr. Xue follow Master Xue to the county town?
Now... why did you come back so late at night!?
"Here is Master Xue's token. Open the door quickly!"
Seeing the soldiers hesitating, Xue Da hurriedly took out Xue Wenyan's token!
With the token presented, Xue Da finally entered the city.
The first thing he did when he entered the city was to find Song Jiang!
"Xue Da, why are you here so late at night?"
"But something happened to Master Xue!?"
Song Jiang was originally sleeping with his lovely wife and concubine in his arms, but the maid reported that Xue Da had come overnight.
Song Jiang instantly realized that something was wrong!
"Song County Magistrate! This is Lord Xue's letter, please read it for yourself!"
Xue Da did not answer, but took out Xue Wenyan's handwritten letter!
……
"This……"
Song Jiang looked confused.
He took the letter and read it.
However, after seeing the content of the letter, Song Jiang was shocked!
"What!? The young master was killed!?"
"This...who did this!?"
However, besides being shocked on the surface, Song Jiang was actually filled with fear in his heart!
Because he had already guessed that this incident must have been done by Jiang Chen!
Jiang Chen actually dared to kill Xue Bin, how cruel!
"County Magistrate Song, do you know the other things that the lord asked about?" Xue Da looked at Song Jiang coldly.
Song Jiang frowned when he heard this.
Because the other thing Xue Da asked was whether there was any conflict between Jiang Chen and Xue Bin.
This...how could he possibly say yes?
But if you say no, some things...will not stand up to verification.
Song Jiang thought for a moment and said, "After the master left, the young master and Jiang Chen had no contact."
"It was just that once, Jiang Chen was attacked by bandits, they met once, and then nothing else was left!"
"Jiang Chen was attacked by bandits!?"
Xue Da was slightly stunned when he heard this!
How could the bandits in Jinchuan County attack Jiang Chen!
Could it be that Xue Bin did it?
"That time..."
Song Jiang told the whole story in detail.
"Where are those bandit bodies!?"
Xue Da asked hurriedly.
He had helped train Xue Bin's subordinates before. If it was done by Xue Bin's subordinates, he might know them!
"Master Xue, it's been a month since this happened, and the body has been dealt with long ago."
"Don't you know that the county government handles the bodies of bandits?"
“It’s all burned!”
Song Jiang said helplessly.
“Burned!?”
When Xue Da heard this, his face changed drastically!
Now that the body is gone, we can’t be sure whether it was Xue Bin who did it!
if so……
correct!
Zhoujia Village!
Jiang Chen's cousin! ?
