Chapter 120 Arresting People
Xing Er's face immediately changed, her body trembled constantly, and she was filled with fear: "Are they coming to arrest me?"
She is not stupid. She knows some things that she shouldn't know. If she is caught, she will most likely not survive.
Soon the group of yamen runners rushed to the door of the guest room.
They saw Xiao Nan and Xing'er in the room, and one of the yamen runners with a bruised face and nose pointed at Xiao Nan and shouted.
"He was the one who beat us this morning!"
His voice was so loud that it woke up Xiao Xixi who was still sleeping.
She raised her head, half-opened her eyes, and asked dazedly, "What's wrong?"
Luo Qinghan pressed her head back onto his shoulder and said calmly, "It has nothing to do with you. Continue sleeping."
"oh."
Xiao Xixi closed her eyes and fell asleep again with peace of mind.
A man who looked like a police chief stood up and said arrogantly, "You are so bold that you not only robbed the girl that the county magistrate bought with money, but also beat up the county officials. You are really tired of living!"
Luo Qinghan frowned: "Too noisy."
The head constable sneered, "Why are you pretending when you are about to die? Come on, lock up everyone in this room and take them back to the government office for severe punishment!"
The detectives took out handcuffs and rushed into the house aggressively.
Xiao Nan and three other guards drew their swords and went forward to meet them.
In terms of skills, they are much better than these strong-looking but weak-willed constables and runners.
In just a few strikes, the ferocious detectives were knocked to the ground, unable to get up. They could only cover their wounds and scream in pain.
The innkeeper and the waiters were so frightened that they dared not come near and all hid far away.
The yamen runner who had complained loudly before was so frightened when he saw what happened that his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.
He didn't expect the other party to be so strong. They had more than a dozen people and the other side had only four, but they were still beaten without any ability to fight back. The gap in strength between the two was too big.
The bailiffs knew they might have hit a wall this time, and they were terrified.
They didn't dare to shout anymore. They hurriedly pulled up their companions who were lying on the ground, and fled in a panic supporting each other.
The guards sheathed their swords.
Xing'er let out a breath, feeling as if she had survived a disaster.
Luo Qinghan waved his hand and asked them to leave.
The guards bowed and retreated. Before leaving, Xiao Nan did not forget to take Xing'er away with him.
The house became quiet again.
Luo Qinghan lowered his head to look at the woman beside him. She was still sleeping soundly, as if everything happening outside had nothing to do with her.
Half an hour later, Nie Changping came back.
This time he learned his lesson and knocked on the door first, only entering the house after getting permission.
When he saw Xiao Xi sleeping on the prince, he couldn't help but stop.
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "Just talk about your own things, don't bother with her."
Nie Changping knelt down in front of him and lowered his voice mysteriously, "Your Highness, do you know where is three miles to the southeast?"
Nie Changping thought the prince would follow his words and ask what place it was?
But in the end, the prince easily gave the correct answer.
"County Office."
Nie Changping opened his eyes wide, in disbelief: "How did you know? Could it be that Xiao Xi could even calculate this? That's not right, if she could calculate it, why would she ask me to lock the position according to the direction?"
Luo Qinghan had no intention of clearing up his confusion and spoke calmly.
"The missing children are all locked up in the dungeon of the county government. This matter is related to Yang Kaiguang. We don't have enough manpower now. We have to wait for Zhao Xian to come with a large force before we can take action against Yang Kaiguang."
Nie Changping agreed, "Your Highness is right."
