"Master Hou, Master Hou——" At this moment, Lu Pi, the guard of the Hou Mansion, ran in the door and shouted: "I, I discovered something big!"

"Lu Pi, don't be so impatient, it's unseemly." Marquis Zhenghao's face darkened: "Tell me, what is it?"

Lu Pi was sweating profusely from running and was panting and huffing. He was so excited that he couldn't speak for a moment. Guan Heng smiled and picked up a bowl of water and handed it over: "Here, let's take a sip first and let's calm down."

." Glancing at Guan Heng gratefully, he picked up the water and drank it all into his stomach.

Then Lu Pi wiped his lips and continued: "Master Hou, I just came back from doing errands on the street, and suddenly I saw two people standing outside the outer wall. They disappeared in a flash, but the backs of these two boys looked familiar to me, as if they were on the street.

The guy who broke into the house the next night and stole the copper fruit with the inscription."

"What?!" After hearing this, Hou Zhengchang immediately stood up and shouted with eyes split open: "Damn it, these bastards dare to appear around the Hou Mansion? What on earth do they want to do?"

"Master Hou, calm down, we don't know the specific details of each other now, so we can't act rashly." Guan Heng tapped the table with his fingers at this time and said: "Lu Pi, did you really not see clearly where those two people ran to?

?”

"Oh, I didn't pay attention." Lu Pi replied: "I was too careless at the time, but..."

When he said this, he took something out of his arms and handed it to Hou Zhenghao: "The two boys dropped this thing on the ground in a hurry when they ran away." Guan Heng saw it from the side and muttered:

"It seems... some broken wood..."

Lu Jin's eyes were blazing. He thought for a while and said, "There are some lines on it, and there is half a keyhole. It should be a fragment of a wooden box with a lock. It's strange, how could they drop this thing?"

"Cousin, cousin." At this moment, several calls came from outside the door, and everyone smiled when they heard it: "Jade Flower is here."

Gong Yuhua was stepping in and out of the door at this moment. With sharp eyes, she suddenly saw something in Lu Jin's hand, so she said, "Hey, it looks familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere."

Guan Heng, who was next to him, was moved in his heart and immediately said: "Really? Yuhua, think carefully about where you saw it."

"Well..." Gong Yuhua is used to being careless, but it's not easy to remember things.

But after thinking for a long time, she said hesitantly: "I went to the West Market in the morning and saw a group of people fighting. One of the guys who was besieged had this box in his hand. When he was outnumbered, he was hit twice on the back.

He punched him, vomited blood, smashed the box, and was finally taken away."

"It seems that it happened after we entered the palace of the co-lord."

Qinghuang said at this time: "A Heng, this is a clue, we might as well check it out." But Lu Jin said: "Let's forget it, I don't want you to be in danger again..."

"Master Hou, this is not just a matter of danger." Guan Heng said solemnly: "The other party appears next to you again and again. I'm afraid there is a major conspiracy. For the sake of the safety of the whole family, I think there is

Need to check."

Hearing his persistence, Zheng Haohou could only nod his head: "Okay, be careful in everything."

Agou said: "Let's do this. The rest of us will stay in the Hou Mansion to protect the safety of the Marquis and others. Guan Heng, you, Qing Huang, and Yuhua will go out to find those two guys."

Just like that, after dividing the work with everyone, Guan Heng took the two girls out of the gate of the Hou Mansion.

"The Western Market where those guys are fighting is not far ahead." Yuhua was leading the way at the moment, turning around and saying: "Hey, Guan Heng, what is going on? My cousin and everyone looked nervous.

of."

"I won't tell you." Guan Heng said half-jokingly: "You can't keep secrets. If I tell you, it might be leaked to others, and then the Marquis will be in trouble.

"

Hearing this, the female man immediately became anxious: "What? You really look down on people. If it is really a confidential matter, I, Gong Yuhua, have never said anything casually."

"A Heng, please stop scaring Sister Yuhua. Come on, I'll tell you." Qinghuang said, and whispered a few words into Yuhua's ear. When Yuhua heard this, her face immediately turned slightly.

Change: "Is this true? Then I don't dare to talk nonsense."

"Hey, you two, stop talking now." Guan Heng pointed forward: "Isn't that the West Market? Yuhua, lead the way quickly."

"Okay, hurry up and follow me." When Gong Yuhua heard that finding those two guys was of great importance and was inseparable from the lost inscribed copper fruit at her cousin's house, she hurriedly took Guan Heng and the others to the morning.

The place where the incident occurred.

"Here, it's right here." Yuhua pointed forward: "Look, the blood stains haven't disappeared yet." After a while, Guan Heng took the two girls for a walk around the area. Not only that, he also sent out

The six ghosts searched everywhere quietly, but found no clues.

At this time, Guan Heng thought to himself: "What are the origins of those fighting guys? It's so hard to figure out..."

At the next moment, two pedestrians suddenly walked over from the opposite side. As they walked, they complained: "It's really unreasonable. Those vicious people came here in the morning, beat and smashed them in the West Market, and now they are here to come to you again."

It’s troublesome, damn it, why don’t the city guards come out and take care of it?”

"Stop nagging, lest the other party hears you." The man next to him shook his head and said, "Don't you know, there was a big incident at the co-lord's palace the night before yesterday. There was not enough manpower for the royal family's personal guards, and 30% of them were transferred.

City guard, things are not going to be peaceful in Yangcheng, please go home quickly."

"Pa." As soon as this person finished saying this, Guan Heng immediately put his shoulder on his shoulder. He was a little unhappy, but Guan Heng immediately clasped his fists and said, "Excuse me, brother, are the people you are talking about this morning?

Have you ever been to West Market and had a fight?"

"Yes, you, why are you asking this?" The man took a closer look at Guan Heng's magnanimous manner, but did not say anything too harsh. At this time, Gong Yuhua spoke angrily: "The commander of the city guard is my eldest brother.

I'm asking you just to clean up those bastards who are causing trouble everywhere."

"That's great, three of you. The group of guys who disturbed the West Market this morning are just around the corner not far ahead. There are more than a dozen of them, and they are pestering passers-by to ask for information. Who dares to do anything?

If you complain, you will be punched and kicked, which is really abominable.”

After listening to this person's narration, Guan Heng and the three of them immediately ran over there.

…

At this moment, a burly man led his men and asked passers-by: "Hey, you guys who often wander around the West Market, have you seen a wooden box that is more than a foot long?"

Hearing this, the passerby waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't know, I don't know."
