Lu Anan raised her brows slightly.
"To be precise, Chu Shengan doesn't even know what kind of people he is working with."
Chu Jinshen looked up at her, his eyes full of understanding.
"I'm afraid Xu Hesheng was... deceived?"
The first bird to stick its head out gets shot. Xu Hesheng wanted to stand out so much that he became a target.
He still doesn't know who his master is.
"He thought his master was Chu Shengan, but now it seems..."
"I'm afraid Chu Shengan has also been kept in the dark."
In any case, they have to go to the dungeon first.
The Lord of Lanzhou took Xu Hesheng directly to the previous place.
Li Si was still holding his hand, his face cold.
Xu Hesheng had a cold face.
Xu Heyan had been brought over, and when he saw Xu Hesheng, he subconsciously avoided his eyes.
"Cousin."
Xu Hesheng shouted first, and then Xu Heyan looked at him embarrassedly.
"Cousin."
His voice was soft and a little flustered.
The Lord of Lanzhou walked up to them and sat down.
"Xu Heyan, tell me more about what you said before."
Xu Heyan hesitated and subconsciously looked at Xu Hesheng.
Xu Hesheng didn't care at all. He thought that the Lord of Lanzhou might be crazy.
Bring Xu Heyan directly to him.
Then Xu Heyan would definitely not dare to say anything more.
Xu Heyan shrank his head as Butler Zhou walked in.
"grown ups."
Xu Heyan trembled violently.
The sound rang in my ears, as if it was fatal.
He wanted to curl himself up into a ball.
Butler Zhou passed by the two of them and walked to Xu Heyan.
He paused slightly.
"Second Master Xu, long time no see."
Xu Heyan raised his head slightly.
"Okay, long time no see."
It will take no more than an hour at most.
What Butler Zhou said was obviously more of a warning.
Xu Heyan understood that he had already confessed before, and if he continued to play dumb now, he would be in trouble.
The branding iron was about to be placed on his face.
As Xu Heyan thought about the scene, sweat began to accumulate on his forehead.
Xu Hesheng didn't know what happened between them.
But after Butler Zhou came in, Xu Heyan suddenly became nervous.
I can probably guess one or two.
Lu Anan did not go into the dungeon, but instead found a quiet place.
The little bugs had cast a curse on Xu Hesheng before, and they could see it through the crystal ball.
Although the image in the crystal ball is not high-definition, you can hear the people inside talking.
"Butler Zhou is indeed very resourceful."
That’s right, Xu Heyan is very afraid of him now.
But it was obvious that Xu Heyan was more afraid of Xu Hesheng.
He trembled for a long time without uttering a word.
Naturally, Butler Zhou could not torture Xu Heyan in front of Xu Hesheng.
He walked to the side of Lord Lanzhou and bowed.
"My lord, they have been sent away."
This is naturally referring to Lord Zhu.
Lord Lanzhou nodded slightly and looked at Xu Hesheng below.
"Xu Hesheng, do you admit your guilt?"
His voice was so resounding that it stunned the two people in the audience.
Xu Heyan looked up in confusion.
Although Xu Hesheng was kneeling on the ground, his shoulders and back were straight.
He frowned, "What crime are you talking about, sir?"
Lu Anan, who was outside watching all this, felt a little sorry.
The little bug had just bitten me, so I'm afraid the curse hasn't been imprinted yet.
"Hongcheng epidemic, are you still going to make excuses?!"
Xu Heyan widened his eyes. This was clearly different from before!
But he didn't dare to speak easily.
Whoever speaks at this time will get into trouble.
"As for the epidemic, the common people are ignorant!"
The Lord of Lanzhou stood up and snorted coldly.
"Don't know? Xu Heyan has confessed, and you still don't know!?"
Xu Heyan almost gasped.
He leaned back suddenly.
"big..."
"Second Master Xu, do you want to change what you said before?"
Butler Zhou interrupted him.
Xu Heyan was stunned and subconsciously looked at Xu Hesheng.
Who knew Xu Hesheng would say it so easily.
"It must be my cousin who is ignorant."
"I'm not afraid of being laughed at by adults. My cousin wants the Xu family, but he's not very capable."
"And I'm blaming you for standing here and refusing to back down."
Xu Heyan couldn't get a word in.
"This is just a trick he used to get the Xu family."
After Xu Hesheng said this, he attributed all the sins to Xu Heyan.
He cleared himself of all blame.
Xu Heyan is not a fool and can understand what Xu Hesheng means.
His expression changed slightly, and he suddenly chuckled.
"What you said, cousin, is quite interesting."
"Cousin, be careful with your words and actions."
The Lord of Lanzhou just watched as the two brothers turned against each other.
He raised his hand slightly: "Master Xu, this is not a place where you have the final say."
"Of course I want to hear what Mr. Xu has to say."
Now that things have come to this, there is no need for Xu Heyan to hide anything.
"Sir, I saw it with my own eyes. My cousin left late at night, and after he left, an epidemic broke out in Hongcheng."
Xu Hesheng lowered his eyes.
"Of course, we are anxious to send Master Wenhua back."
"But no matter how anxious my cousin is, he won't leave Hongcheng when it's so late at night."
"After all, after all... Hongcheng is often haunted by bandits!"
Xu Heyan couldn't help but tell the story of the bandits.
The people of Hongcheng deliberately concealed it.
The Lord of Lanzhou originally did not take these bandits seriously.
Now that he heard it this way, he felt that these bandits were a big problem.
"Go on."
"Hongcheng has a custom of not leaving the city at night."
"My cousin knows, but why did he have to leave the city that night? Even if Master Wenhua was in a hurry, safety was the most important thing!"
Xu Hesheng turned around and looked at him, his eyes becoming more ferocious.
Xu Heyan shrank back.
At this point, he can't be the one to die.
Since that was the case, he had no choice but to send Xu Hesheng on his way personally.
The Lord of Lanzhou put the matter of the bandits aside for the time being and focused on finding out the truth about the epidemic first.
"So, why was Master Xu in such a hurry to leave the city that day?"
Xu Hesheng gritted his teeth.
I still stick to my previous answer.
Outside the dungeon, Lu Anan looked at the conversation in the crystal ball and curled the corners of his lips.
"It seems Xu Heyan is not stupid."
"If he wants to avenge his life, he can only rely on Xu Hesheng."
After all... there's always a scapegoat.
And this person, apart from Xu Heyan and Xu Hesheng, there is no one else to think of.
When the Lord of Lanzhou thought of this, his expression became more serious.
Only if they confess the truth can he escape.
Now that I have offended Lord Zhu, there is no other way.
"You have to think carefully, Master Xu."
Xu Hesheng's face turned cold. This was the first time his expression changed.
"What exactly does Lord Fujun want to know?"
"Of course it's the epidemic in Hongcheng. What's the reason?"
"Why? It's just that every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor!"
Xu Hesheng chuckled: "They brought this upon themselves."
