Hua Boxhen stayed at Wengjiayuan's house for another night.
Last night he couldn't sleep, so he found Weng Fan early in the morning and asked him if the water bandits had released him.
Weng Fan didn¡¯t receive any news, so he asked Hua Boxhen to wait while he asked someone to ask.
"It's the deadline, and Miss Jiang hasn't come back yet." Hua Bozhen didn't want to have a confrontation with the Dongting Chamber of Commerce, but the other party was really rude, and he couldn't hold back his anger.
I came to negotiate in person on behalf of the Hua family. Is that so worthless?
Hua Bozhen spoke seriously for the first time: "In these years, the Han family has not caused trouble or made any trouble, and they have given up their rights. But if your Chamber of Commerce really thinks that it can turn a deaf ear to what my Hua family said, then it will be a big mistake. So wrong!¡±
"How could it be? Where did you want to go, brother?" Weng Fan was confused for a while, and he quickly said all his good things, and promised that he would go out to ask questions in person and give him an explanation.
After calming down Hua Boxhen, whose patience was exhausted, Weng Fan ordered someone to prepare a car and personally rushed to Songjiawan in the north of the mountain.
Liu Yuanwai¡¯s manor in Dongshan was built there.
??~~
"Where is Liu Zhengqi? Tell him to get out and see me!"
Weng Fan jumped off the carriage and went straight into the garden gate without waiting for notification.
How can the servants of the Liu family dare to stop the president? He quickly ran in and informed his master.
Liu Yuanwai had not slept all night, and with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, he came out wearing a medium-sized singlet and flip-flops.
"What did you do?!" Weng Fan puffed his beard and glared, scolding as if he were lecturing his son: "My father is carrying the shit basin for you, and this is how you do it?! When did this happen? Why haven't you picked me up yet? return!"
"What are you yelling about!" Liu Yuanwai was even more anxious than him, jumping to his feet and saying: "My son went to ask for someone yesterday. It is said that he will be back before dawn, but there is still no sign of him!"
"Oh?" Weng Fan was stunned. "Did something happen?"
"How did I know!" Liu Yuanwai said with a sad face: "He also went with Butler Wang. Normally, no matter what happens, Old Wang will send back the news as soon as possible."
"That's a bit bad" Weng Fan frowned and said, "Did you send someone there again?"
"Only Lao Wang and I know that place, how can we just tell the servants casually." Liu Yuanwai whispered.
"Then what are you doing in a daze? Go quickly!" Weng Fan said anxiously: "The Hua family is anxious with me. If you don't bring me back today, my father will have no choice but to hand you over!"
"No, please don't, I'm going right now!" Liu Yuanwai was frightened, if people knew that he had colluded with the water bandits and kidnapped Miss Jiang. It's hard to say anything else, but this vice-president will definitely fail.
"As he said this, Mr. Liu ran out without even bothering to change his clothes.
"Wait, I'll go with you!" Weng Fan also followed. Thinking of facing Hua Boxhen's anger when I go back, I might as well go to the scene and see what happened.
??~~
At noon, the two of them arrived at Dalei Island with dozens of bodyguards.
Liu Yuanwai pointed to the small island covered with reeds in front of him and said with some uncertainty: "This should be it, but I haven't been there either."
"Drive in." Weng Fan urged impatiently.
The sailors carefully maneuvered the boat into the reed swamp, fearing that hidden arrows would be fired.
Fortunately, we arrived at the dock safely.
Liu Yuanwai was dumbfounded. "Why isn't there a boat?"
"Is there anyone here?" Weng Fan looked at the dead forest. "You're in the wrong fucking place."
"Go down and have a look." Liu Yuanwai urged several bodyguards to get off the ship for inspection.
A few people lingered on, wandering around the island for a while, and came back with a few stumps and severed limbs.
"My boss, water bandits did live here, but they were camped out last night."
As he spoke, the bodyguard handed the broken palm and arm to the two of them. "These were all chopped off with a knife. It looks like what happened last night."
"Ah!" Mr. Liu looked pale and sat down on the deck. "This is where my son came up last night."
As he spoke, he raised his head and complained about Weng Fan. "You killed my son."
"It's none of my business, did I ask your son to come?!" Weng Fan rolled his eyes, and then asked the bodyguards: "How many people died, have you found the bodies of Mr. Liu and Butler Wang?"
"The ground was covered with blood, but no bodies were found, only these things." The bodyguard pointed to the forest and said, "They must have been taken away."
¡°It won¡¯t be the water bandits who suffer the loss., escaped by yourself? Weng Fan asked.
"The water bandit wants to escape, but can he take care of the corpse?" The bodyguard shook his head and said with regret: "There is not a single thing of value left, even the warehouse has been moved cleanly, it is more like being carried away in one pot."
"Who is so capable?" Weng Fan frowned and said, "The officers and soldiers of Huzhou Prefecture? Or did the Xiang family take action?"
There is something going on here in Suzhou Mansion, and he will definitely know about it.
After a second thought, he shook his head and said: "The Xiang family has too much time to take care of themselves, and it is unlikely that the Huzhou government will meddle in such nosy matters."
"Oh, my son" Liu Zhengqi couldn't help crying. Obviously, his precious son was in danger.
"Why are you mourning?" Weng Fan glanced at him and said, "Such a big event can't just pass by quietly. There must be more to come!"
With that said, he ordered: "Go to Suzhou City!"
??~~
The big ship left Dalei Island and headed for Suzhou.
They were taking exactly the route Zhao Hao and the others took to Xishan Island.
It was a smooth journey, much faster than when we came, and we arrived at the top of the west mountain in an hour.
? Continuing forward past Mouse Mountain, the boat has to turn northwest, leaving Taihu Lake from Xujiang River and heading directly to Suzhou City.
When the ship was about to turn, Mr. Liu, who was silently wiping tears at the bow of the ship, habitually looked up at his hometown.
He is from Xishan Liandu, and he can clearly see the five green peaks of his hometown from here.
"Huh?" Liu Yuanwai was suddenly stunned.
"What's wrong?" Weng Fan, who was lying on the mat basking in the sun, raised his hat and asked.
"Is there anyone in Dasheng Bay?" Liu Yuanwai asked strangely.
"Oh?" Weng Fan stood up, put up a pergola and looked around. Sure enough, he saw a cluster of masts vaguely appearing in the crescent-shaped bay of the lake. "Are you taking shelter from the wind?"
"Such a beautiful day." Liu Yuanwai rolled his eyes at Weng Fan.
"Maybe" Weng Fan looked at Liu Yuanwai and thought of a possibility.
"Is it these people who did it?" Liu Yuanwai was horrified.
"I'm afraid so." Weng Fan nodded.
Dasheng Bay is on the route to Suzhou, and no matter what happens, it cannot escape the eyes and ears of the Dongting Chamber of Commerce.
They had no idea that a fleet was occupying that place.
?? Xishan and Dongshan are less than ten miles apart, so will the next target of the unknown fleet be Dongshan?
Their whole families are still in Dongshan!
Weng Fan quickly ordered to escape from this terrifying area at full speed.
Liu Yuanwai can no longer take care of his precious son. His life is at stake, so he should report to the official position as soon as possible!
