Before leaving, Hao Bo did not forget to remind Si Qin, "Madam, be careful, the master likes to hide his cards."
If we highlight our strong brother, we won’t be afraid of that old bastard Jiang Xiuyuan.
That night.
Lu Laotie's fleet also returned to Xincheng.
More than ten days have passed since Jiang Hai was sent to Qingshui River Wharf.
When they arrived at the shipyard, Lu Laotie was not in his fleet.
Lao Tie took Qin Bai and got off the boat in Nanzhou City. He said he wanted to take Qin Bai to Nanzhou for a tour and then come back.
As for what to visit, everyone knows it well.
Wu Gong reminded Qin Bai to keep an eye on this idiot, then ignored them and returned with the boat.
After returning to Xincheng, Qin Wan and his entourage led the expeditionary force back to the military camp in the north of the city.
Wu Gong followed Wang Fa to the Xincheng government office, planning to stay there for one night. Wang Fa would go to the county town tomorrow.
Wu Gong originally wanted to go directly to the military camp, but when he thought about how long he had been away from Xincheng, he decided to go find Wang Lue and check out the latest situation in Xincheng before going to the military camp.
After all, if Jiang Hai was not in Xincheng, Wu Gong would basically be the one in charge of Xincheng. It should have been Jiang Xiuyuan, but unfortunately, Master Jiang was a person who was even more useless than his son.
It was already quite late when they arrived at the Xincheng Yamen. They entered and found the main hall still brightly lit.
"Is the fourth brother so dedicated?" Wang Fa found it unbelievable.
"Maybe something happened. Let's go over and take a look." Wu Gong said.
The two walked towards the lobby.
In the lobby, Wang Lue was sitting at the head seat at the conference table, listening to a young man speaking next to him.
The lobby of the Xincheng Yamen was different from the outside. It didn't have a desk and yamen runners, but was more like a conference hall.
Wang Lue saw the two people coming in and grinned,
"You've arrived just in time. Come here, Master Sun has something to say."
Wu Gong and Wang Fa nodded and sat next to them.
The young Master Sun greeted the two of them and continued to complain to Wang Lue,
"I don't know what possessed my father. Why did he abandon his good life and run to the capital?"
"What did he say?" Wang Lue asked.
"He left a letter before he left, saying that he had tasted a life of wealth and luxury and wanted to experience power. I think he is crazy." Master Sun handed the letter to Wang Lue.
"How long ago did this happen?" Wang Lue felt something was wrong after looking at the letter.
"A month ago, it was all my fault. If I hadn't listened to him then, opened the letter, and known what he was thinking, I wouldn't have waited until now to come." Young Master Sun was very upset.
"So your father gave you a letter before he left, and told you not to open it until a month later?"
"Yes, otherwise I would have stopped him long ago. Manager Wang, I really didn't mean to hide it. I really don't want to do such a thing." Young Master Sun said a little anxiously.
Wang Lue nodded, and he finally figured out the situation.
This young master Sun's father was greedy for power. After leaving his son in Xincheng, he sold Xincheng's goods outside and made enough money. Now he wants to become an official.
Moreover, it is very likely that Lao Bi Deng wants to sell out the news about Xincheng in exchange for a position.
The letter asked his son, Master Sun, who was sitting next to Wang Lue, to find an opportunity to leave Xincheng and go to the capital to find him.
It's a nice thought, but his character is really terrible. This man must have never imagined that his son doesn't want to be like him at all.
After seeing the content of the letter, he immediately ran to Wang Lue to surrender.
Wang Lue nodded and said,
"Okay, Mr. Sun, first of all, I have to commend you for your awareness as a resident of Xincheng.
But this matter is not easy to handle. Although you came to report the situation yourself, your father should not be able to get it back now.
So I can only ask you to cooperate and move to Xingfu Community during this period.
Of course, due to your outstanding performance, your father’s affairs will no longer involve you.
As for when you can leave Xingfu Community, you'll have to wait until we find your father and bring him back to the new city, and then you'll be free."
Happy Community, you know it is a happy community as soon as you hear it. Well, it is the place with the strictest control and surveillance.
Although it is not a prison cell, you have to report everything you do and you cannot leave the surveillance area.
"I know, I will naturally abide by the regulations of the new city. I just want to ask Manager Wang, can my father's body be kept intact?" Young Master Sun said frankly.
When the three people opposite heard what Master Sun said, the corners of their mouths twitched in unison. This son was really filial and immediately wanted to prepare for his father's funeral.
Wang Lue suppressed his twitching expression and said with a smile,
"Master Sun, there's no need to be so pessimistic. Our Xincheng government office is not that cruel, even though what your father did was excessive.
However, the situation is unclear right now. We'll see what happens once we find him. Punishment is inevitable, but the death penalty is unlikely."
"Oh, really? Well, I'll go back and pack my things and move over there now."
Mr. Sun was not very surprised, he just said it calmly, then seemed to think of something and asked,
"By the way, Manager Wang, does that mean all my family members have to move there?"
Wang Lue nodded and said, "Yes, move there with your family in the new city. Someone will come with you and take you there later."
"Okay, thank you, Manager Wang." Young Master Sun seemed very happy.
This left the three of them a little confused.
However, Wang Lue still ordered people to follow Master Sun and take him to Xingfu Community.
Wang Fa was very curious about why this man was so strange, so when Master Sun got up to leave, he followed him out.
A moment later, Wang Fa came back with a gossipy look on his face.
"Second brother, what's going on?" Wang Lue asked.
"Hahahaha, that's interesting. Guess what I just heard?"
"If you have to fart, do it now."
"Aunt Liu, now that we have found out, let's go to Xingfu Community together." Wang Fa pretended to be Master Sun and imitated what he said.
Wang Lue and Wu Gong both opened their eyes wide. Wow, what a family with a story.
Wu Gong shook his head. He didn't like gossiping about such trivial matters. He just asked Wang Lue if there was anything unusual happening recently.
Wang Lue said, "Nothing, just what happened just now, everything else is normal."
"Then we have to send pigeons to the capital. I think the people who went to investigate Yang Hongye should all be in the capital now. It's been quite a while.
Okay, you organize this person's information, and I'll take it to the military camp tomorrow and have someone bring him back."
Wang Lue nodded and said okay, then went to look for this person's information.
After a moment, Wang Lue took the information and added,
"There's also a copy of this person's information about buying and selling things as a merchant. You have to go to the Jiang Mansion to get that."
Wu Gong nodded. He was familiar with this. He had done it himself before, and now Uncle Hao was organizing it.
There wasn't much to do, so Wu Gong picked up the information and went back to Jiang's house.
