Chapter 83: The Unclear Agreement Between Men and Women
After Zhou Jishi arrived at the Leshou County Government Office, the entire government office was in turmoil. It was a chaotic situation, and everyone was in danger for a while.
Fortunately, after most of the day, the impartial and impartial Zhou Ji Office did not find any clues, not even a little bit.
Seeing dusk approaching, Tang Ju stood up and bowed, saying, "Zhou Jishi has been busy all day and must be hungry. I have ordered people to prepare wine and food. Please move in."
Zhou Jishi stood up and said with a stern face, "Okay, County Magistrate Tang, please lead the way."
Tang Ju was relieved to see this, as he was afraid that this meticulous weekly journal would criticize him for "only knowing how to eat and drink ".
In fact, Tang Ju, Zhou Jishi, and everyone in the entire county government office did not have lunch. They were all here with Zhou Jishi.
Now that they could finally have a good meal, all the officials in the yamen smiled knowingly.
However, Zhou Jishi, who had stood up, said, “We’ll continue in the evening after we finish our meal.”
Coming again at night? Is this the end? The officials of the government office took a deep breath, but dared not speak out.
…
Southeast corner of the county.
Corner Tower Street.
Su Xian had just returned home with packed food when she heard the crisp sound of horse hooves coming from the street.
He turned around and saw that it was Tang Shujing again, riding horses and galloping towards them with a group of detectives.
"That...Brother Shi!" Tang Shujing stopped her horse beside Su Xian, got off, and ran over with her long legs. A large group of constables including Captain Lin also rushed over.
"Miss Tang, what are you doing? Are you here to arrest me?" Su Xian raised his eyebrows.
"I'm not here to arrest you." Tang Shujing seemed a little anxious, but she also explained: "I'm searching for bandits."
"Bandits?" Su Xian was stunned for a moment, and said blankly: "There should be no bandits in the city. The murder case on the city wall has been resolved. Why is Miss Tang still catching bandits?"
Behind Tang Shujing, Captain Lin nodded slowly, agreeing with Su Xian's words, and said, "Yes, Master Su is right. There should be no such person in this city..."
"Shut up!"
Tang Shujing stopped Captain Lin and clenched her fists, saying, "The threat from the bandits has been around for a long time. Although this murder on the city wall has nothing to do with them, I, the female police officer, have sworn to catch all the bandits and completely destroy their den!"
"I see... Then why did Miss Tang come here to see me?"
Tang Shujing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "There is a Zhoujishi in the government office. He is the 'angel' sent by Princess Lanling to inspect. Daddy is inviting Zhoujishi to a banquet and ordered me to invite you to the banquet."
It seems that the inspection went smoothly, otherwise the uncle would not have hosted a banquet for Zhou Jishi... Su Xian already knew that Princess Lanling had gone to the neighboring Shenzhou, so he was not surprised.
He looked at the packed food in his hand, then looked at Tang Shujing and said, "Wait a moment, let me put the food away."
"good."
Su Xian pushed the door open and entered the house, then closed the door under Tang Shujing's curious scanning gaze, and then carried the food to the study on the second floor.
"I'm going to the government office for a banquet tonight. The food has been packed. You can eat it by yourself."
Su Xian put the food on the desk. When he saw Yang Zhilan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, nod slightly, he went downstairs and rode the horse brought by Tang Shujing to the county government office.
On the way, Tang Shujing slowed down and walked side by side with Su Xian, and reminded him: "Daddy told me to remind you that Zhou Jishi came here on behalf of Princess Lanling. His identity is extremely sensitive. You'd better be very careful..."
After hearing this, Su Xian asked, "If the Zhouji Office is so dangerous, why did Uncle Shi ask me to go there?"
"How should I know?"
Tang Shujing glared with her bright eyes. She was actually a little reluctant about this mission because it disturbed her great cause of hunting down bandits.
So he wanted to vent his anger on Su Xian: "Since Daddy has called you, just go, why are you talking so much nonsense."
Su Xian rolled his eyes, looked at her and said, "I actually know a clue about the bandits!"
After saying this, Su Xian squeezed his legs against the horse's belly and galloped away first.
Tang Shujing's pretty face was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and urged her horse to catch up while shouting, "What clue? What clue do you know?"
Su Xian didn't answer, but just ran forward.
Tang Shujing was so angry that she was jumping up and down behind him. In terms of fighting skills, she was far superior to Su Xian, a scholar, but in terms of riding skills, Su Xian had also learned it in the county school and was not much worse than Tang Shujing's.
So she couldn't catch up for a while, which made her pretty face slightly distorted.
"Su Xian, stop!"
Tang Shujing whipped the horse whip wildly, and the horse felt pain and tried its best to ride.
After a while, he gradually caught up with Su Xian, who was running away without saying a word.
Tang Shujing, who was eager to know the answer, suddenly jumped up from the horse's back, lightly tapped the saddle with her toes, and landed directly on the horse's back behind Su Xian like a wild goose.
Before Su Xian could react, Tang Shujing had already grabbed the reins and pulled gently, and the horse stopped.
"Do you know any clues? Tell me quickly." Tang Shujing was very anxious.
"Have you forgotten how to address me again?" Su Xian said calmly.
"Brother Shi!"
This time, she called out quite clearly, but it was too stiff... Su Xian shook her head slightly, tilted her head and said, "Be gentler, call me like your sister does. Maybe if you act a little coquettishly, I will tell you directly."
gentle?
behave in a spoiled manner?
This was such an unfamiliar word to Tang Shujing. She raised her heroic eyebrows, grabbed Su Xian's collar and said, "Hurry up and tell me, hurry up and tell me!"
"Okay, okay, stop it! There is no clear boundary between men and women, how can you be pulling each other in the street!" Su Xian said.
"That's more like it... What clues do you know?"
Su Xian straightened his clothes and grinned, "It's simple. You just need to close your eyes, put your hands together and pray, saying, 'Please God, tell me the whereabouts of the bandits.' Who knows, you may really get the whereabouts of the bandits!"
What?
Tang Shujing was stunned for a long time before she realized that she had been tricked.
"You..." She slowly raised a slap.
"What? You still want to hit me? I'm your brother!" Su Xian was not afraid at all. Instead, he scolded her loudly and even brought up Tang Ju...
As soon as Tang Ju appeared, Tang Shujing immediately became scared.
She snorted coldly, returned to her horse, whipped it and galloped away.
After arriving at the gate of the county government office, Su Xian did not say a word from the time she dismounted her horse to the time she entered the government office. She snorted coldly and turned her head away. It seemed that she was really angry this time.
Su Xian couldn't help laughing, and was led by the clerk into the back hall, where the banquet was held.
After the meal, Su Xian also had several deep impressions of Zhoujishi——
Rigid, serious, stick to the facts, don't try to get close to others, be impartial, and handle things impartially...
It's really hard for Uncle Shi, who was able to avoid revealing any clues under the inspection of the Zhouji Office. It's amazing... Su Xian walked out of the gate of the county government office, looked back at the government office where the lights were on and people were coming and going in a hurry, and left with emotion.
