Profound Pure Guard

Chapter 34: Wind

     Li House.

   It was close to noon, and the handymen in the house also found that Wu Sanhe, who should have been back long ago, hadn't returned. Seeing that the meal was about to arrive, it would be inappropriate to let the old man wait for that.

   A few servants who knew the matter hurriedly went out to search, thinking that Wu Sanhe was delayed by some unexpected situation. But after looking for it twice along the street from Li Mansion to Dong Market, I didn't see Wu Sanhe at all.

   "Guanshi Wu is missing!?"

   The servant reported the news that Wu Sanhe had not been found, and soon the old man of the Li family, who was sitting in the dining room ready to enjoy Wu Sanhe's craftsmanship, got the news.

   The old man of the Li family is Li Bing's grandfather, named Li Canglie, eighty-nine years old this year, eighth grade viscount.

   Also informed was Li Bing’s father Li Longcheng, 67 years old this year, the fifth grade viscount.

   These two fathers and sons are different from Li Bing. They both came down from the battlefield. After experiencing repeated life and death scenes, they formed a stubborn habit of being cautious in everything.

   "Let all the guards and handymen in the mansion go out to find someone, and at the same time contact the Licheng Yamen and ask them to send an **** to help find them."

   After another steward got the order from the master to leave in a hurry, Li Canglie and Li Longcheng and his son looked at each other and walked into the secluded study together.

   Li Longcheng spoke first: "Father, why don't people call Li Bing back? I always feel uneasy, as if something bad is about to happen."

  "Do you feel that way too? Oh, I have it too, for many years, since I retired from Zhuohuoguan, I haven't felt so dangerous and imminent for more than 30 years. Tsk tsk, and a little nostalgic.

   As for Bing'er, the matter has not yet reached that point, so there is no need to call him back. "

   "..." Li Longcheng was a little speechless when he heard the words. His father was getting older, but the older he was, the more unpredictable he was. But these words from his father also reminded Li Longcheng that his father was called a "mad dog" when he was young. It seems reasonable that a mad dog likes to feel dangerous?

   After a while of silence, Li Canglie suddenly said, "It seems that Wu Sanhe has been here for twenty years, right?"

   "Well, yes, it's been almost twenty-three years?"

   "Yes, he has been loyal for so many years. Although he is only a cook, he can do things well and his brain is alive and well. So I was promoted to a manager back then, and then you promoted him to be in charge, right?"

   "Yes, my father, Wu Sanhe is still very good. I have never worried about him since I was promoted to the position of chief steward. Everything has been properly arranged by him, and he has also handled external affairs very well."

   At this point, Li Longcheng's face is a little gloomy.

Li Canglie shook his head and said, "Did you also think of it? Wu Sanhe has gained our trust over the years, participated in and even handled a lot of confidential affairs, and even the accounts are handled by him. Now he is not just a big deal in Li's house. It's so simple. But, we were careless, we didn't even think of arranging some guards for him."

   "Father, you mean Wu Sanhe was taken away?"

   "Can there be any other reasons? How far is it from our home to the East Market? It's broad daylight again, and Wu Sanhe cannot be lost or have any accidents. The only explanation is that he was taken away."

   "If he is really taken away..." Li Longcheng didn't say what he said, but the meaning was already obvious. Once Wu Sanhe was taken away, the other party's purpose was definitely not just Wu Sanhe himself.

   The Li family is in big trouble.

   Until the evening approaching, the people looking for Wu Sanhe returned without success.

   "The only thing that is certain is that Guanshi Wu was taken abducted in a rice wine shop, and there are no traces of the rice wine shop’s Xiao Er and the owner.”

   "The carriage that went out of the city today was not found suspicious, so the Yamen still believes that Guanshi Wu is still in the city the most likely.

   Li Longcheng glanced at his father who was sitting in the chair, and secretly said: He really guessed it.

   "Call Li Bing back."

  ......

   Li Bing was called back by the old servant of the family from Jinxiu Pavilion. If it weren't for the old servant who followed his father, Li Bing would not have come back so altogether. After a trip to the Fairview Pavilion, it would have long been a pastime that he couldn't move.

   Li Bing felt strange as soon as he returned to the mansion. There were obviously more guards in the mansion than usual. Obviously, he had been assigned a higher duty density.

   The old servant on the road was told that he didn't tell Li Bing about Wu Sanhe, so Li Bing went into the study and heard his father Li Longcheng telling him about Wu Sanhe's disappearance.

boom!

   Li Bing smashed the table hard, and said viciously: "It must be Tang Qingyuan who is doing the ghost!"

   "Why is it him?" Li Canglie took a sip of his tea, and asked seemingly casually.

   Li Bing took it for granted: "The black flag camp was established before. Tang Qingyuan ordered a rootless and unreliable scum to serve as the banner officer and indulged the **** to check my files. It made it clear that Tang Qingyuan was instructing him."

Li Longcheng also nodded and said: "Li Bing told me before and asked me to join Licheng and Fengri City’s many nobles to send a letter to Fengri City Xuanqingwei Qianhu Office. Perhaps Tang Qingyuan was ready to make peace. Our Li family smashed hard?"

Li Canglie shook his head and said, "You don't know what qualities of Tang Qingyuan? It seems that there is a city government who is very calm, but in fact he is a timid and fearful person~lightnovelpub.net~ Is it possible that he can be a hundred officials in Licheng? Jiang Cheng's support, otherwise he is also worthy?

   So even if you co-signed a letter to Fengri City Qianhu Office last time, Tang Qingyuan was very annoyed, but it is impossible for him to voluntarily want to die with our Li family. "

   "What do you mean? It was not Xuan Qingwei's person who took Wu Sanhe?"

   "I can't be sure. It's just from the analysis of Tang Qingyuan's personality that he is unlikely to have such courage."

   "But if other people act on us, then there is no need to kidnap Wu Sanhe? And this is Li Cheng. If we want to hide a person without being found by us, it would be difficult for anyone except Xuan Qingwei to do it?"

Li Bing on the side patted his chest and said, "Why guess? I'll go to the sanctuary right away. If people come in from the new gate, they can find it easily. It won’t be long. You sit down at home and I’ll just go. Back!"

   Li Bing went out in a hurry, but it was a full hour after he came back, and his face was dark, his chest was ups and downs, and he was obviously out of anger.

"The dungeon is strictly controlled. Without Tang Qingyuan's warrant, no entry is allowed. It is useless to even try Baihu official's approval note. Moreover, all the torture files are temporarily stored in the hands of the Baihu Guarding Camp. Today, they were newly detained. How many people and who are they will not be able to find out for a while. You can only ask when the gang of torture in the health center will be on the job tomorrow."

   Li Longcheng and Li Canglie have already heard something strange from Li Bing’s words.

   Li Longcheng asked immediately: "Did the dungeon have such strict control before?"

   "I have, but that happened many years ago. At that time, it was strictly controlled because four evil monks were imprisoned in the dungeon at the same time. There has been no such case recently, which is very strange."
