Chapter 239 Worse than a Beggar

Su Mingjue waited there for a while, and soon Lu Shaoyu’s sedan appeared on the street directly in front of the alley.

After the sedan entered an alley, someone in the team stepped out. Su Mingjue saw this and stepped in, catching him intact.

The sedan walked forward until it stopped in front of the Meng Mansion.

Before getting off the sedan, a soldier at the door stopped him with a pair of halberds, "Who is trespassing in the important place of Meng Mansion!"

A guard in front of the sedan stepped forward with a token and said, "How dare you, Lord Lu of Dali Temple is here to handle the case?" Dare you stop me?"

As he spoke, the sedan landed, and the curtain of the sedan was opened by the guards on the side. Lu Shaoyu walked out, "Lu was ordered to handle a case, and he suspected that the Meng Mansion had hidden personal belongings. He came here to see him." Upon

seeing this, the soldier handed over his hand. He bowed and said, "It turns out it's Mr. Lu. I just apologized for my offence."

After saying that, the two of them stepped aside, stretched out their hands to guide the way: "Master Lu, please come inside."

Lu Shaoyu opened the corner of his clothes and walked inside, behind the sedan chair . The guards followed, and Su Mingjue mixed in with the team and followed the team in with his head lowered while watching his nose and nose.

Su Mingjue entered the Meng Mansion again, and what he saw was a devastated scene. The ground was in a mess, and the smashed objects that day were also placed everywhere, scattered all over the floor.

Lu Shaoyu walked steadily in front. He had not yet fully walked into the courtyard. As soon as the person lying on the rocking chair saw him, he stood up immediately.

Su Mingjue recognized him. It was Xia Hou who came to Meng Mansion to ransack his house that day.

When he saw Lu Shaoyu, he put a smile on his face, but said in a somewhat disrespectful tone: "Master Lu came to visit late at night, I don't know why."

Lu Shaoyu narrowed his eyes slightly and did not look at him, "I have been ordered to investigate the case. " I suspect that the Meng family has something private, so I just came here to take a look."

"It's such a simple matter that Mr. Lu can go there in person. If you want anything, I'll send someone to Mr. Lu."

"Thank you, General Xia, for your kindness ." The matter is of great importance and must be presented in front of the Holy Lord. Lu did not dare to use his hands on others."

The corner of Xiahou's mouth twitched when he heard this, and his face was very ugly, but he finally endured it for a while, "In this case, Xiahou will not delay Mr. Lu's work. "I don't know where Mr. Lu is going. Meng Mansion is in a big position. It would be more convenient for me to find a smart person to guide Mr. Lu."

Lu Shaoyu refused without even looking at him: "I don't dare to bother General Xia." , Mr. Lu from Meng Mansion often comes here, and he is quite familiar with this place. It was getting late, so Mr. Lu went to investigate the case first."

Su Mingjue was also stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Lu Shaoyu had been to Meng Mansion when he was a child. , but in the blink of an eye, I realized that he was a young man from a well-established family, and it was not unusual for him to associate with them.

After speaking, Lu Shaoyu went directly into the courtyard, regardless of what the people behind him thought.

Xiahou's eyes were red and his eyebrows were raised and he was glaring because of Lu Shaoyu's repeated humiliation, but he did not dare to express his resentment.

Lu Shaoyu raised his feet and walked forward. When he was about to turn left, he stopped and looked behind him. When he saw Su Mingjue stretching her neck and looking inside, he put his feet back and changed direction and walked straight to the front of the hall.

This is the Meng family's mourning hall. The white curtain is still fluttering in the wind, but the incense inside has long been burned out, revealing a desolate scene.

Fortunately, the coffin had already been processed before it was transported, otherwise the corpse inside would have stunk by now.

Su Mingjue felt relieved after seeing that the coffin was intact.

Lu Shaoyu looked at it carefully and walked out when he saw that there was nothing strange above. Xia

Hou followed, and when he saw Lu Shaoyu entering the mourning hall, he said frivolously: "Master Lu, isn't he familiar with the Meng family? Why are you here in front of the coffin? Why don't you tell Xia that this investigation will go to the coffin?"

Shao Yu heard the words and said calmly: "Why do I need to tell Xia Hou

when I'm investigating the case

? " What's so strange about the coffin? Xiahou has never investigated the case, so he hasn't heard of the coffin being used for autopsy."

After saying that, Lu Shaoyu walked to the other side and saw that Xiahou still wanted to follow him. He stopped and said:

"The emperor has decreed that after the case is found out, it will only be presented to him for inspection. General Xia followed to know the progress of the case

." When Xiahou heard this, he took back his foot.

Looking at the departing figure in the distance, he spat, "He's just a civil servant, what's the air? Then how noble Meng Guogong was before, he has become a rebel!

After passing the Moon Gate, he came to a familiar place."

There were not many changes in the Orchid Courtyard, except that the items on the weapon racks were scattered all over the place, and the archery target was also torn to pieces.

Lu Shaoyu glanced at the group of people behind him and pointed to a few to stay. "You guys stay here and don't let anyone in."

Then he said: "The rest of you come in with me."

Su Mingjue followed a few people. After entering Meng Helan's house, the house was unexpectedly clean and undamaged. Su Mingjue looked at Lu Shaoyu in surprise.

The guard on the side saw it and said: "My master said hello in advance and said that the case was to be investigated and that nothing in Meng's house could be touched at will."

Su Mingjue walked to the wall with familiarity, pulled the big bow on it, and soon left the desk The bottom was exposed, Su Mingjue pointed to the secret and said, "This is it."

Lu Shaoyu bent down and walked in, and Su Mingjue also walked in after seeing this.

The two of them entered the tunnel together. Lu Shaoyu picked up a torch from the side and lit it with a fire stick.

The tunnel suddenly became clear. Compared with the narrow and cramped tunnel of the previous small workshop, the tunnel here was wider.

The road underneath is even more flat, paved with blue bricks, and it feels like walking on flat ground.

Su Mingjue secretly thought: It turns out that this tunnel also has a comparative level, but the ones for rich people are different.

The road was easy to walk, and it didn't take long for the two of them to reach the cave entrance.

During this period, Su Mingjue saw many boxes of things. He glanced at them, expecting them to be jewelry and silver coins, but he didn't expect to see a lot of black iron.

No wonder when Meng Helan gave him black iron before, it was like giving him cabbage, as if it was not the tip of his iceberg.

All the way out from the entrance of this cave, you can hear the sound of gurgling water.

Judging from the sound, it should be somewhere on the bank of Liuhe River.

The two people just came out of the hole, and two cold knives were held on their necks. The soldier on the side shouted outside: "General, we found that two people came out of the hole." A

familiar voice sounded in their ears: "Directly Cut it off!"

Su Mingjue heard the words and quickly raised his hands upward, "No, no, we are all acquaintances, the general is me, Su Mingjue!"

The man heard the sound and rushed over, looked at Su Mingjue for a long time and said, "It's really you, My friend, the second young master of the Meng family, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you are finally here."

"Yes, I have been doing something recently and I haven't had time. This is my friend. This blade is cold. Can you put it down?"

General. Hearing this, he smiled heartily and waved his hand, "I'm sorry. We were chatting for a while and didn't pay attention. It was Mr. Su who took the knife down."

The thing around his neck suddenly loosened. Su Mingjue felt much better and just twisted it. He raised his neck and was about to speak.

The general glanced at Su Mingjue from side to side and said strangely: "We haven't seen you for a few days. How come Mr. Su's face has turned so dark, as if he has emerged from the earth? You haven't taken a shower in these days. You are better than our soldiers." He still needs to be buried!"

Su Mingjue was startled when he heard this. Lu Shaoyu stood aside and chuckled lightly when he saw the other party's dirty face. He was just busy dealing with Xiahou and didn't look at him carefully. Like this At first glance, he really looks like a beggar.

Su Mingjue laughed twice and said: "It's just a disguise, put on two dusts."

"I came to the general today to find out what happened to Meng Guogong in the battle of Helan Mountain."

The general looked sad when he heard this, "This is It’s a long story, that day…”
