Chapter 79
Looking at the night in the distance alone, he questioned from the heart.

"Brother Chen, the bait has also been put down. When do you think this fish will take the bait?"

Chen Lei raised the spirit tea and took a sip slowly.

hiss~
ha~
"Don't worry~, Brother Yuan, you have to be patient and lonely when fishing. The person behind you has big intentions and won't show up easily."

Chen Lei spoke in a cadence, and looked at Dongcheng who was not in a hurry.

"Anyway, Brother Yuan, you are not in a hurry, take your time and see who is more patient."

Yuan Shao nodded, "That's true."

It has not been a day or two since he investigated this matter, and he investigated it much earlier than Chen Lei.

The family that asked Yuan Shao to help was near Luoyang, so the youngest son of that family committed suicide several days earlier than Zhou Bing.

At first, he didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that he could send a few subordinates to investigate. His Yuan family has a lot of connections in Luoyang. Isn't it casual to investigate this matter?
But later, other families accepted Yuan Shao's compensation, and each of them pretended that nothing happened. Only three or four families were left with hatred, including this family, and Yuan Shao really took it seriously.

Could there be something in Luoyang that the Yuan family couldn't find out at all?

Yuan Shao increased his manpower, but there was no news.

I checked it myself, but there was still no news.

He even asked his high-ranking guards and his staff to investigate together, but the result was the same, nothing was found.

It was after working with Chen Lei a few days ago that I discovered something suspicious.

This also reflected the horror of the person behind him. So many people started fighting together, but there was still no news at all.

There must be someone behind that person, and there must be at least one or two high-quality subordinates, otherwise it would be impossible to do things so cleanly.

Yuan Shao has a big family and a great career, so he is not afraid, but he doesn't know why Chen Lei is not afraid either.

Chen Lei has no foundation in Luoyang, does he only rely on a guard at the top of the eighth rank?
In a small county, the peak of the eighth rank can indeed be called the king, but here is Luoyang, under the feet of the emperor, Yuan Shao knows no less than ten ninth rank, not counting those lurking in the dark.

So, Chen Lei is very dangerous.

Yuan Shao said seriously, "Brother Chen, if you have anything to do in the future, you can just ask me for help. You can save Yuan Shao's life. I have nothing to say about anything I can help, including this matter. Now you are in a very dangerous situation. Brother Chen, if you don't mind, you can move to Yuan Mansion for a few days, my Yuan Mansion is still very safe."

"Thank you, Brother Yuan, for your kindness!"

Chen Lei smiled and said, "It's still under control now. Brother Yuan, don't worry about me. If there is really danger, I will definitely move to the Yuan Mansion and come to nag you, Brother Yuan. It is more important to find out the person behind it now."

Yuan Shao didn't say much, and didn't persuade.

With a guard at the peak of the eighth rank, there is still the most basic security, and it should be able to support him to come to Yuan's mansion.

There is really no way, death is also Chen Lei's fate, just like that day in Hessen Mountain, if Chen Lei did not come that day and he died, this is also his fate, and no one can blame him.

Yuan Shao smiled and said, "Brother Chen, if you need any help, just tell me, don't be polite to me."

Chen Lei nodded, and he was talking clichéd again. He took a sip of his tea, "There is indeed one matter that I need your help with, Brother Yuan, but it's not now. That matter will have to wait for more than five months of shooting."

Yuan Shao knew in his heart that he should seek a suitable official position.

really.

Chen Lei added, "Brother Yuan, you may not be able to stop me. My father died early and my widowed mother raised me. I really can't bear to leave my widowed mother. This time I want to ask the county magistrate of Guangling so that I can return to Guangling to serve my mother."

Yuan Shao looked at him and nodded earnestly, "It's easy. When it's time to shoot policy, Chen Lei, please tell me about your situation in Xiaolianyuan. I'll help you spread the word in Luoyang. There won't be any trouble like this." Rumors are out."

Otherwise, if the Yuan family openly helps someone seek an official position, there will definitely be some bad rumors. The Yuan Shao family has a great cause and is not afraid of it, but it is still very fatal to Chen Lei.

So it's better to lay the groundwork. If this matter spreads, even if it spreads all over the world, others will only praise Chen Lei for his filial piety, instead of scolding Chen Lei.

Chen Lei said with a smile, "Okay, I'll trouble Brother Yuan then. I have a widowed mother in Guangling, and I really don't feel comfortable going to other counties. If I get an official position in another county, it's really useless."

"Don't worry, Brother Chen." Yuan Shao didn't care, this matter was too simple for him.

Then he said, "By the way, Brother Chen, you have to resolve the Luoyang rumors as soon as possible. If it drags on for too long, it will basically be settled. By then, Brother Chen, you will not be able to do anything."

Chen Lei smiled and said, "Don't worry about this matter, brother Yuan, this matter has already been settled, and we can do it only after this matter is over, otherwise it will be impossible to handle two things at the same time."

Yuan Shao nodded, "Since you have a countermeasure, brother Chen, it's fine. If it doesn't work, I can help you deal with it. This matter is quite simple and not difficult."

Before, I wanted Chen Lei to take the initiative to mention it, but now that Chen Lei has a countermeasure, if he doesn't say anything, I'm afraid he won't be able to pay back any favors, so at least he can make a statement.

Chen Lei said with a smile, "Yes, Brother Yuan, if I can't handle it, I will definitely ask Brother Yuan for help, hahaha."

"Hahaha, easy to talk about."

under the same night.

A group of shadows quickly came to the small courtyard in the east city.

Knock on a door.

The people inside quickly got dressed and came out.

The man didn't complain about anything, and asked directly and clearly, "What happened?"

It's not important, and the shadow won't bother him in the middle of the night.

Shadow seemed a little hesitant, and there was a hint of helplessness in his voice, "Your people were taken away tonight."

The man's expression turned pale all of a sudden, "Abducted by who?"

The shadow replied, "If there is no accident, it should be the Chen Lei you asked me to watch, and the other should be the Yuan Shao from the Yuan family. The two of them abducted together."

The man frowned.

Are they mixed together?

It's normal, the kid from the Yuan family is also looking into this matter, Chen Lei saved his life back then, it's reasonable for these two people to mix together.

"Keep staring and tell me if you have anything to say!" the man ordered.

Shadow nodded, disappeared to one side, and continued to stare at the Chen residence.

The man sneered and thought to himself.

I didn't want to kill you before, so why do I have to seek death now?

Yuan Shao is protected by the Yuan family, so does your Guangling clan still have someone to protect?
The man closed the door and flew to another courtyard in the distance.

Flying inside, quietly stood aside.

Only when the sun was rising and the street gradually became lively, did they dare to make a sound.

"My lord, I have something important to report to you, the Guangling Xiaolian Chen Lei and the Yuan family Yuan Shao took us away."

A cold voice came from inside, "Meng Wen, didn't you say that last time? If Chen Lei is still stubborn, then give him a warning."

Meng Wen nodded solemnly, regardless of whether the people inside could see it or not.

"The villain is here to tell the young master that the villain will go to Guangling today, and the young master may not be able to find me in the next few days."

"Ah."

A cold voice came from inside.

Mengwen retreated in a hurry and walked to the east gate.

He took a horse and headed towards Xuzhou.
