Zhu Yan ordered Xing Ying and Xing Fang to take Yuan Hao to the government office. No matter how weak the military force of the government office was, it was a place of government after all. Although people in the world were not afraid of the government, they did not want to have grudges with the government, and they had to be wary to some extent. One or two.
government office
Song Ning searched almost the entire Nantai County in the past few days, but could not find any trace of Xia Yuanqiu and Mo Bo. These two people seemed to have disappeared from the world.
"Chen Mingjie, tell me the truth, is Yuan Qiu hidden by you?" Song Ning stood in the front office study room, frowning and looking at Chen Mingjie, who was sitting in the Taishi chair.
Chen Mingjie raised his eyes, glanced at Song Ning, and said coldly: "This is what I should ask you!"
Song Ning didn't believe it. Xia Yuanqiu had no relatives or friends in Nantai County, and now she was in trouble. The government office was the best place for her to avoid trouble. There was no reason for her to leave suddenly.
Moreover, Mo Bo also disappeared with him. Although Qing Shang had heard something from him, he didn't believe it. Xia Yuanqiu had refused to leave Nantai County with him before, and now he would not leave without any reason, and he would leave with Mo Bo. impossible.
Chen Mingjie snorted coldly: "Maybe she doesn't want to see you again and is just avoiding you!"
Song Ning frowned, knowing that there was something behind his words: "He doesn't want to see me, does he just want to see you? I lied, didn't you?"
Chen Mingjie waved his hand: "That's it. I don't want to argue with you anymore. You can go. I still have a lot of things to do in my office!"
Song Ning refused. Seeing his appearance, she even suspected that he had hidden Yuan Qiu: "I won't leave until I see Yuan Qiu. I won't go anywhere!" Now that the situation in Nantai is in chaos, he must find Yuan Qiu as soon as possible. Qiu, take her away from here, away from this place of right and wrong.
Chen Mingjie's face showed impatience, and he said in a deep voice: "This is the government office. You can't be so presumptuous. Someone—" Before he could finish his words, a government official came to report in a hurry.
"Sir, there is a man and a woman outside the door with an injured boy asking to see you."
Chen Mingjie frowned: "Can you tell me who he is?"
The yamen officer shook his head: "They didn't tell me, they just said they would know it when they met."
Chen Mingjie waved his hand: "Let them come in!"
After the yamen officer retired, Song Ning still had no intention of leaving. He found a seat and sat down on his own, picking up the hot tea brought by his servant and drinking it slowly.
Chen Mingjie had no choice but to suppress his anger temporarily.
Xing Ying carried Yuan Hao on his back and walked behind the government servant who was leading the way. He turned to Xing Fang and muttered: "Fang'er, why do I always feel that the name Chen Mingjie is so familiar? Where have I heard it before?"
Xing Fang also said: "It sounds familiar to me too!"
Yuan Hao, who was lying on Xing Ying's back, smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? When we were in Xipo Village, a man named Chen Liwen came to find my sister to relieve the plague."
When it came to Chen Liwen, Xing Ying and Xing Fang both looked surprised. No wonder they always felt that the name was familiar. Chen Liwen had mentioned his son in front of them more than once, calling him Mingjie.
Xing Ying said: "Could this Chen Zhixian be the son of Mr. Chen Liwen?"
Yuan Hao nodded: "Yes, it was him. When he and Mr. Chen were drinking in Xiaoyuan Town, he was choked by a foreign object. It was my sister who cut the object with a sharp blade and saved his life. I didn't expect that he would be so cruel. Know how to repay your kindness, knowing my sister's identity, but pretending not to know, causing harm to my sister and us." Yuan Hao became angry as he spoke, and his little fists became tighter.
While they were talking, the yamen servant had already led them outside the study. The yamen servant made a gesture and invited them in.
