The prince is very fierce

Chapter 42: There are always some blind people (5/63)

"That's natural."

Xu Buling nodded: "But don't shake me out. If anything happens, just put a high hat on Xiao Ting's head. Anyway, they don't dare to go to the prime minister's house to check..."

Zhu Manzhi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, hung the bronze medal back on his waist, and smiled:

"After entering the Emperor's Camp, you can go to the archives to check the files. Once you find out the whereabouts of my father, I will stop being a policeman and work as a guard for Young Master Xu."

Xu Buling raised his eyebrows: "Miss Zhu, are you sure you are working as a guard for me and not looking for a backer for yourself?"

Zhu Manzhi was already quite familiar with life, and said with a smile: "Young Master helped me such a big favor, I have to repay you, right? Young Master has family property in twelve states, and he doesn't care about money. He can only be a guard. Don't dislike it." That’s it…”

Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled: "Don't say whether these are available or not, have you entered the record library?"

Zhu Manzhi became a little more serious and felt a little disappointed: "When we went in, the case library was very big. The bookshelves containing the files were several feet high. There were hundreds of bookshelves stacked together... My parents abandoned me last year. I ran away from home. At that time, there seemed to be trouble in the Fenhe area, and several gang leaders were killed. I found the case records in the case file library. Unfortunately, the case has not been solved until now, and I can't find the murderer at all... "

Xu Buling frowned: "Isn't that all the hard work in vain?"

Zhu Manzhi nodded listlessly: "If this method doesn't work, I can only find a martial artist of similar age to my father. I don't know how powerful my father is. There are hundreds of masters named Zhu in the archives, and I don't know how to find them." Until when."

"Don't be anxious. The Criminal Investigation Department monitors the world. Basically, famous figures from all over Dayue cannot escape the eyes of the Criminal Investigation Department. They will eventually be found if you investigate slowly."

Xu Bu Ling comforted him with a few words.

Zhu Manzhi nodded with a 'hmm', thought for a moment and then said: "By the way, Mr. Xu, I even went out of my way to find out the news about Dragon Locking Gu, but Dragon Locking Gu disappeared more than ten years ago, and there are only cases in the archives. The record has no source or solution..."

Xu Bu Ling raised his eyebrows lightly, with a bit of surprise: "You are serious about it... Are you sure you have read it all?"

Zhu Manzhi shook his head, a little embarrassed: "The archives store some secrets of the princely family, which cannot be seen everywhere. There is also a small library in the archives, which is specially used to store important case files. Several of them The chief officer stays inside all year round. If the case involves the things inside, Mr. Zhang will take people in to check, and no one will be allowed to go in alone. "

Xu Buling thought for a moment: "Sneak in?"

Zhu Manzhi kicked the pebbles on the ground with his hands behind his back, looking a little listless:

"Of course I wanted to sneak in and take a look, but Mr. Zhang is inside. If I were caught sneaking in, something big would happen."

Xu Buring chuckled lightly: "It's simple. I'll call Zhang Xiang out and hold him back. You can find an opportunity to go in and check the files. By the way, see if there is any record of the dragon-locking Gu."

Zhu Manzhi pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment: "Mr. Xu, it is a serious crime to break into the case library and you may lose your head... I... I am timid..."

Xu Buling shook his head: "I am the eldest son of Prince Su. If the incident really comes to light, you will say that you have a very good relationship with me and that you only rushed in to find your father. No one can touch you while I am here."

Zhu Manzhi thought about it for a moment, then smiled: "Okay, I believe Mr. Xu..."

"A gentleman's words are hard to catch."

On the other side, the quarry outside Chang'an City.

The towering buildings in Chang'an City are spread out one after another, so the consumption of stone materials must be huge. There are no railway transportation lines in Dayue, and it is too extravagant for merchant ships to transport stones, so they usually use local materials.

Without the help of explosives, quarrying is not an easy job. In the cold winter months, countless corvees wear single clothes and use iron hammers to break open huge rough stones at the bottom of the mountain wall. Most of the corvees are skinny. If they are lazy, there will be an overseer with a whip. scold.

In a small house outside the quarry, which had just been converted into a study, the smell of paint still lingered.

The carved soft couch is placed under the window, and in a blink of an eye, you can see the busy laborers outside.

Li Tianlu was dressed in civilian clothes, sitting on the couch playing with a paper knife in his hand, his eyes showing undisguised annoyance and gloom. The servants stayed outside in silence.

It was said that Li Tianlu came to do corvee as a punishment, but the Li family's status in Chang'an City was definitely not bad. They came here in the prison car honestly just to show off, so as not to offend the courtiers and the emperor. But if he really wanted the legitimate son of the Li family to go and eat with a group of corvees, even thinking about it, he knew it was impossible.

After two days here, the house has been tidied up by the quarry clerks.

Li Tianlu waited for a moment on the soft cave, and then a carriage stopped in the quarry. The Imperial Forest Army opened the way, and the Zhongyong Marquis Li Baoyi in regular clothes quickly entered the room, turned around and closed the door.

"father!"

Li Tianlu stood up, slightly restrained the anger on his face, and asked softly:

"Dad, when can I return to Chang'an City?"

Li Baoyi walked up to him with his hands behind his back and said calmly:

"Don't think about it these two months. It's when the limelight is at its peak. If someone grabs the handle, you'll be on the edge of the knife."

Li Tianlu knew this truth, so he could only wait for the news to pass and the courtiers and the people to forget about it, so that he could have the opportunity to sneak back and continue to be his son of the Li family.

The Li family, the dignified leader of the street, had finally built a prosperous business in Baima Village. Now that it was blocked by the authorities, Li Tianlu was naturally angry:

"This Xiao Ting, I used to treat him like an elder brother, but I never thought he would be so disrespectful..."

Li Baoyi shook his head: "We can't afford to offend the Huainan Xiao family, but we must not let the female head catcher off. The Wolf Guard didn't say hello in advance. It must be the female head catcher who made her own decisions, or was bewitched by the Xiao family, so she dared to be too old. Breaking the news."

Li Tianlu's eyes showed a bit of chill: "Send someone now..."

"Hey!" Li Baoyi raised his hand to stop Li Tianlu's words: "Don't be impatient. Something happened in Baima Village. If the female detective died now, a fool would think that it was my Li family who did it. Make arrangements first. Manpower, the news in Baima Village will be suppressed in a few days, and the work will be done more cleanly to prevent future troubles. "

Li Tianlu couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, but he also knew that revenge was too conspicuous at this time, so he could only snort:

"It's too easy to kill her. If she falls into my hands..."

"Hmph... Anyone who goes against my Li family is already dead..."
