Crazy criticizes the regent for reading my mind and his character collapses

Chapter 118 Look at You, You Are Thin
Nan Xi put the buns on the table and sat aside, "Lan Jue is with them. If there is danger, he will find a way to send a message back. There is no news so far, which should be good news."

I don't know whether these words comforted Tang Qingqing or herself.

After a while, she finally remembered the real thing.

"By the way, sir." Nan Xi stood up suddenly: "Marquis Bo'an is looking for you and is still waiting outside."

Tang Qingqing: "..."

I don't know since when, his little Jingzhao Yin Mansion has always been patronized by these big shots, and he really can't relax for a moment.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Tang Jingjing trotted outside quickly.

It was really a shame to have the dignified Marquis wait for him.

However, when they arrived outside the gate, they didn't see a single person.

The gatekeeper clasped his fists and said, "The Marquis said that you are taking care of everything, so I won't disturb you. I will treat you to a drink another day."

"?"

Marquis Bo'an invited him to drink?
Are you planning to recruit him to deal with King Gong?
It seems that the young master of the Hou family of Bo'an is this year's prodigy. Is it to pave the way for his son's career?
Tang Jingxin thought of thousands of reasons, but he didn't think of Nan Xi.

At Chenshi, Wen welcomed them back.

All beards and tails, no one was injured.

Nan Xi and Tang Jingjing finally let go of their worries.

"Quick, drink some water to moisten your throat. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it after drinking." Nan Xi poured a cup of tea for everyone. It was still warm and had ginseng slices in it, which was very tonic.

"Nan Wuzuo, can I have another drink?" one of the yamen servants, who looked very simple and honest, said.

There are ginseng slices here. You need to soak them in water several times, otherwise they will all be wasted.

Nan Xi smiled and asked them all to refill. Tang Jingxin was anxious but reluctant to push.

The night must have exhausted them all.

"Come here, make all the buns from the old Baojia bun shop across the street. First, let them make up for it, and then let the kitchen prepare a table of good dishes." Tang Jingzong ordered.

Wen Ying wasn't actually very thirsty, but she didn't want to be in the limelight and grab the credit, so she sat aside and drank tea slowly, with Nan Xi massaging her neck and back behind her.

Zhang Captou drank three glasses of water in a row before he regained his composure and said, "Sir, Shi Wenxi has returned to the capital."

Tang Jingjing stood up suddenly: "Are you sure?"

Zhang Captou nodded: "We chased the flower boat filled with gold all the way to the ferry of Jinfeng River, and found heavy carriage prints on the ground, and wheel marks all the way to the official road, which only leads to the forest. County and capital.”

Tang Jingjing suddenly remembered that the regent had blocked all the official roads from the capital to other cities yesterday.

"This Shi Wenxi is very courageous. The whole city is looking for him, but he actually dares to come back."

Zhang Captou added: "No one has ever seen Shi Wenxi's true face. Maybe that's why he dared to return to the capital. In addition, Wen Ying reminded me that Shi Wenxi must have returned with so much gold. There are ways to hide or deceive others.”

"Check!" Tang Jingjing thought again that they had not slept all night, so he changed his words: "Eat first, then you all go back and take a nap, and then check again. This time, Shi Wenxi must be brought to justice!"

While eating, everyone was still asking about the wedding banquet in Guan Mansion.

"The customs officer said that you have worked hard to chase Shi Wenxi, and there will be a special banquet for you." Nan Xi was not hungry at all. She sat here, firstly to listen to the details of their pursuit of Shi Wenxi, and secondly to give Wen Ying welcomes the dishes.

But while she was holding these dishes, they somehow ended up in her bowl.

Wen Ying's hands were not idle, and she kept putting meat on Nan Xi: "Nan Nan, please eat more. Look at you, you have lost weight."

Nan Xi: "?" They haven't seen each other for just one night.

"Why do you think this Shi Wenxi is so courageous? He kidnapped Mrs. Bo'anhou more than ten years ago, and kidnapped the wife of the richest man more than ten years later. He still demanded 500 million taels of gold, but he still gave up half of it and took him with him. Walk halfway."

Some people raised doubts: "Didn't Shi Wenxi originally want 500 million taels? He just wanted more gold to hide from others. Take this dowry as an example, it is worth a lot of money. He didn't take it. He only took it with him. I walked away with more than 200 million taels of gold."

Nan Xi looked at Capt. Zhang: "If there are too few clues in this case, then why don't we start with the kidnapping case that year? Shi Wenxi's whereabouts have always been a mystery, but if there are overlapping clues in the two kidnapping cases, maybe You can find his foothold.”

Zhang Captou sighed softly: "The case was very sensational back then. Madam Hou was frightened and could not afford to fall ill for a while, but she finally recovered. Mr. Hou loved his wife and never asked anyone to mention the matter again, so later Even if we wanted to investigate the case again, we couldn’t get anything out of them, and it just went away as time went by.”

Wen Ying gave Nan Xi another piece of meat and watched her eat it before participating in the topic: "I heard that Marquis Bo'an specially marked the gold back then, but until now, the gold has never appeared in Dongyue Kingdom. .”

This matter is a bit private.

It's not even something a young detective should know.

Tang Jingjing walked in from the outside, "Wen Ying, how do you know this?"

"Oh, I had a fight with the people from Jianghu Village before. I heard what the people there said." Wen's face didn't change, his expression flawless.

The other government officials all cast curious and envious glances.

"Wen Ying, have you been to Jianghu Village?"

"I heard that anyone who burns fires in Jianghu Village is a top-notch expert. Is this true?"

"Is it really not under the jurisdiction of the Four Kingdoms? Is it true that it can even house murderers?"

There are too many legends about Jianghu Village.

Wen Ying shrugged: "I don't know."

After saying that, he continued to pick up food for Nan Xi, as if he was not interested in the affairs of Jianghu Village at all.

Tang Jingjing's suspicious eyes fell on Wen Ying. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.

In the afternoon, Guanfu sent people to transport the 180 corpses away in batches.

Everyone else went to continue looking for clues about Shi Wenxi, and only Nan Xi and two yamen servants were left in the government office.

"Nan Wu Zuo, the Marquis is here and wants to see you by name." The officer cast an envious look at Nan Xi.

Nan Xi had just finished disinfecting the morgue and before he could check the system panel, he walked out after hearing this.

Murong Tao was standing sideways in the courtyard. He turned around when he heard Nan Xi's footsteps, his eyes seemed to be shining.

"Nan Xi."

He even took the initiative to walk towards Nan Xi, with an eager look that even the government servant next to him found unbelievable.

"I have seen Hou Ye."

Nan Xi was halfway through his salute when he was helped up by Murong Tao.

"No need to be so polite, there are no outsiders here."

Nan Xi: "?"

The officer's mouth opened wide and his eyes widened, as if he had heard something unbelievable.

　There is a kind of thinness that makes your best friends think you are thin...
