Chapter 1509: Chapter 1509: Those People Are All Dead
Translator: 549690339
“Fine, do as you wish,” Qian Jiyun nodded.
“It’s dawn; Lan Zhengfeng should be waking up. Shall we go over?”
He asked, just right, to buy some food on the street outside, for An Jiuyue hasn’t eaten yet, and to try some of the local snacks of Ming Gu County.
“Okay.”
An Jiuyue nodded.
Lan Mansion.
Dawn had just broken when Lan Zhengfeng’s steward rushed to the back courtyard to see Lan Zhengfeng.
“What’s the matter?”
Lan Zhengfeng was being dressed by a beautiful woman; noticing his steward outside the screen, he frowned and asked.
Why come to him early in the morning? Doesn’t he know he doesn’t hold court in the mornings? Moreover, in such a large Ming Gu County, there are few matters worth his personal appearance at the county government.
Usually, it’s the county magistrate who presides over the court in his stead.
“My lord, something terrible has happened; our men are all dead, and their bodies have been… been thrown outside the county government, seen plainly by pa.s.sersby.”
The steward was extremely anxious, knowing that if their kidnapping of children were exposed, it would be disastrous.
“What did you say?!”
Upon hearing this, Lan Zhengfeng suddenly pushed the woman beside him far away and emerged from behind the screen.
The woman also knew she should not stay any longer, bowed to Lan Zhengfeng, and then withdrew, leaving Lan Zhengfeng eye to eye with the steward.
“What happened? How could those people be dead? And the children?”
He didn’t care much about the few subordinates, but those children needed to be sent to Rong Mountain. If anything went wrong, it could cost him his life!
“I inquired around, and no one has said that their child has been found, but according to our people at the city gate, our men weren’t seen leaving the city last night.”
The steward reported truthfully, feeling that the children had been taken away, but who did it was hard to say at the moment.
“d.a.m.n it!”
Lan Zhengfeng took a deep breath and cursed silently.
How could someone have whisked away the children he had worked so hard to s.n.a.t.c.h? Wouldn’t all his efforts be in vain?
That wasn’t even the main issue; the real question was who had taken those people and what did they know? Could it be one of his enemies?
But his enemies…
For a moment, he truly couldn’t recall any enemies he might have in Ming Gu County.
Suddenly, he thought of someone!
“It can’t be him, can it?”
Thinking why he came to Ming Gu County was unclear to him at first, but someone later purposefully told him about it.
He was demoted to Ming Gu County because Prince Zhanyun had manipulated things behind the scenes, making him suffer in this dreadful place.
And behind Prince Zhanyun was his despicable daughter.
She wasn’t his blood, yet insisted on claiming the ident.i.ty of his daughter, trying to cause him trouble. How could he tolerate her?
What was merely a minor issue had, because of Prince Zhanyun, the centipede that does not topple, led to many complications and dragged him into Ming Gu County.
“My lord, who are you talking about?”
Hearing his words, the steward was unsure who he meant and quietly asked.
“It can’t possibly be his; it must be someone from within Ming Gu County.”
Lan Zhengfeng instinctively dismissed the possibility of Qian Jiyun, considering this was Ming Gu County; Qian Jiyun, even if stuffed to the brim, wouldn’t likely bother coming to this desolate place.
