Chapter 406 Chasing Jade(1/2)

Jiang Yun was both angry and excited. What was angry was that he had capsized in the gutter and was actually plotted by two "subordinates". What was excited was that Shen Yu finally had a whereabouts.

Among the two "subordinates", Jiang Yun hated Chen Qianyuan even more, "I once trusted you so much that I promoted you from a desperate man to the Master of Mo." He said this after being rescued by the Five Elements Sect.

Chen Qianyuan only looked at the knife in his hand and smiled and said, "Congratulations, you have begun to feel the temptation of divine power. At least you can understand why I left the extraordinary Tao. The divine ship is the only true god."

It was this sentence that made Jiang Yun furious. He rarely killed people with his own hands. He waved his sword and slashed his head. Instead of raising the sword like an ordinary hero, he threw away his waist and sighed again, and said to others: "He had the opportunity to take over the position of Master of the Sutra, but he didn't expect... Everything went north this time, and this matter was the most. I was already in a state of distraction. Go and find Hu Guiyang. Whoever finds the divine jade, we are very convinced who will be the leader, and we have no different intentions."

Jiang Yun refused to escort and rode back to the city alone. He ran faster and faster. His mount was foaming at the whip.

After listening to the Five Elements Teaching, Jiang Yun immediately realized that he was able to escape the believers and wanted to seize the jade alone.

Things did not go very smoothly. Before he entered the city, he was surrounded by a group of Jinyiwei, saying that he was rescued, but in fact he was arrested. He asked to open the city gate overnight and sent it directly to the West Factory.

The Five Elements Sect believed that he did not take the Divine Jade and wanted the Jinyiwei to believe it, but there was only one way.

In the West Factory, more people were waiting for him. After sympathizing with him in a hurry, they asked him to undergo an inspection in a tactful manner.

"I am willing to be investigated, it's now." Jiang Yun's heart was open-minded.

The bee girl came over. She didn't like the crowds very much, and she looked dodging. The onlookers had to withdraw, leaving only Li Zi Province, Dongchang Shang Ming and Luo's who spoke on behalf of him.

Everyone was expecting it. After a check, the expectations of others were vain. Only Jiang Yun became more and more excited, but his face remained silent, "Hu Guiyang lied, Shenyu must have been hidden elsewhere by him."

"This kid." Shang Ming said hatefully.

"If I had listened to my advice, I would not have been today." Li Zisheng hated Hu Guiyang even more and wanted to get rid of it quickly, but he had never been able to do it.

"Where are others?" Jiang Yun asked knowingly, without mentioning the Five Elements Teaching. When he talked about escaping, he claimed that it was a rescue from his friends in the world. Anyway, no one cared about the detailed process.

"It is very likely that he was kidnapped by a group of Wen's family. It doesn't matter. Dongchang will soon find their place." Shang Ming bowed and said farewell in a hurry.

Li Zisheng even gave up and left without saying goodbye.

All they are concerned about is Shenyu.

Luo and the bee girl are still there and have not participated in the conversation.

Jiang Yun bowed his hand and squeezed out a smile, "I won't bother you anymore, I have to go back..."

"The entire Nansi has been taken over by the East Factory. Lord Jiang has nothing to do when he returns, so why bother to worry?"

"I need a rest. Although I haven't suffered a lot, I'm really anxious these days. Alas, I'm very disappointed in the eunuch? Shen Yu is about to be found, but I haven't made any achievements, but I fell into the hands of a slutty man."

"Wai'en said that anyone who finds the divine jade can do it, as long as he is willing to hand it over to His Majesty."

"We are not pure people from the martial arts world. We eat the king's fortune and loyalty to the king. Of course, we must send the god jade to the palace immediately. In this matter, we don't have to worry about being eunuchs."

"If I got the divine jade, I might not be able to hand it over." Luo said with a smile.

Jiang Yun followed and laughed twice, not wanting to waste time, so he bowed and said, "Goodbye."

"No," Luo said lightly.

The West Factory is almost empty, Jiang Yun tried to control his pace and not seem too urgent.

It was a distance from the West Factory to the Outer Yamen in the South. Jiang Yun rode his horse slowly. On the way, he met the night patrol officers and soldiers, and he was even more afraid to show his rush.

Shortly after dawn, he rushed to the yamen. It happened to be when the door was opened. Most of the lieutenants and the sects were called, but the civil servants had to work normally. When they saw the experience, they were surprised and went forward to express their condolences.

Jiang Yun tried to smile and perfunctorily, "Before I went home, I had to come to the yamen to take a look first. Business matters are the most important. Thank you for your hard work these days. That... Is Chen Li's eyes there? I need him to help me organize my study."

All the rooms in the yamen were rummaged through, especially the study room of my house. Even the beams and tiles were demolished, and a large number of documents were exposed, so they really needed to be cleaned up.

One person said: "Chen Limu was frightened and hadn't come for two days."

"Yes, Chen Limu has been taking care of his study room..." The speaker immediately shut up because it was Jiang who forcibly took away the study room.

Jiang Yun was not angry and smiled and said, "I just look around, let's go busy."

The civil servants dispersed, and Jiang Yun really walked around and looked around, then found a familiar minor official and asked Chen Limu where his family lived.

"Not far away, right in the alley behind the yamen, the fifth house from the east is from the right hand. I really considerate my subordinates when I experienced it. In fact, I can't compare with my experience. Old Chen was just overly frightened. But what was he afraid of? The lieutenant didn't specifically target him, and everyone in the yamen was asked about it."

"Yes, and since I came, he has never entered the study room again." Jiang Yun knew in his heart that Chen Li's eyes must have left a key, so he could enter the study room when he was unprepared.

"That's what I'm talking about."

The little official wanted to please a few more words, but Jiang Yun turned around and walked away without riding a horse. He walked into the back alley to look for the Chen family.

The Chen family is easy to find. Although he works in the Nanshi Office of the Jinyiwei, the civil servant lives on his monthly salary, and is not as good as the lieutenant and the sect leader. He has other income. The Chen family is very small and has a dilapidated gate, which is not much different from the neighbors on both sides.

Jiang Yun counted it carefully twice, observed it for a while, and after confirming that no one was following him, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

After knocking many times, an old woman in the door asked in the voice: "Who?"

"Chen...Is the official at home? I am a colleague in the yamen." Jiang Yun only knew that the man's surname was Chen, so he forgot to ask for his name.

The door opened, and a short and fat old woman looked up and looked at the guest, "Are you my son's colleague? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"I am the Jinyiwei experience, your son's boss."

"Oh." The old woman looked at her for a few times, not particularly believing it.

Jiang Yun was not wearing his official uniform and bowed, "I heard that Chen Limu was ill, so I came here to visit him."

"Come empty-handed?" The old woman likes to pick gifts.

Jiang Yun was patient for a long time, and when faced with an old woman, he no longer had the mood to perfunctory, he rushed in, "Where is the boss who gives gifts to his subordinates?"

"Hey, why are you not a little bit of a rule? I don't think of myself as my boss. The people in Nansi are the most etiquette... that's the kitchen. You, you... my son is not at home, why are you rushing around?"

There were only three rooms in total, all of which were very small. After entering, Jiang Yun quickly came out, "Isn't your son sick? Why aren't he at home?"

The old woman looked puzzled, "What's my son's name?"

"He was surnamed Chen and worked in the Nansi Outian Yayi. I am his boss and surnamed Jiang. Did he not mention it at home?"

"The boss surnamed Jiang..." The old woman thought for a while, "Are you that outsider Jiang?"

"Um?"

"My son mentioned it and said that an amateur boss came to the yamen. He didn't understand anything, but he occupied his study and checked useless old documents every day, and didn't know what he was reading..."

"It's me, where is your son?" Jiang Yun suppressed his anger.

"I say, Boss Jiang, you have just taken office, so you should be considerate of your feelings..."

"I can drive your son out of the yamen with just one word." Jiang Yun said coldly.

This threat was indeed effective, and the old woman immediately said, "Oh, this is not possible. We both are all pointing to this monthly salary. Boss Jiang should not be aware of an old woman like me, and don't make things difficult for me."

"Where is your son going? I want to see someone immediately." Jiang Yun became more and more anxious.

"My son was sent to the yamen to commit business. You are his boss. I don't know where he went?"

"To be honest, your son has committed a crime, and the yamen has not sent him out at all. He is going to run away."

"What? My son..." the old woman was about to cry when she said halfway.

Jiang Yun grabbed the old woman's arm and sternly said, "Don't cry, I can save your son's life, but I must find him as soon as possible."

The old woman was frightened, "My son didn't say where to go, but I heard him muttering alone about who to go to the south to find."

Jiang Yun turned around and left, leaving the old woman alone in panic.

"It's him. Is he going to Jiangnan to find a woman named He? It's so stupid..." Jiang Yun returned to his residence, changed his clothes, rode his horse out, and headed straight to Tongzhou.

Chen Limu is not young and is also a civil servant. If you want to go to the south, you can only take a boat in Tongzhou.

Jiang Yun rushed to the dock around noon, but instead went to the government office, but asked friends for help.

Before the five elements were united, there was a single supreme religion. The believers were mainly merchants and ship workers, and they often traveled south and north. Jiang Yun was the most familiar with these people and soon found a dock helm master.

It was easy for the boatman to find someone on the dock. Jiang Yun’s butt was not hot yet. When the news came, there was indeed a single guest who was consistent with Jiang Yun’s description, claiming that his surname was Jiang, the man had already boarded the boat and had not set off yet.

Jiang Yun sneered secretly, thanked the helm leader, refused more help, and went to find Chen Limu alone.

The ship is very small, full of cargo, and only a small cabin carrying passengers. It is waiting for the government to release it. The cold winter is approaching, and this is the last itinerary of this year.

Jiang Yun used a piece of silver to pick up the ship owner, tidied up his clothes, and bent down to enter the cabin.

Facing an old and weak civil servant, he really has nothing to be scared about.

It was Chen Limu. He was sitting in the cabin in a daze. When he turned his head to see the visitor, he couldn't help but be surprised. "Jiang, Lord Jiang..." He wanted to get up with his hands.

There was no chair and stool in the cabin. Jiang Yun raised his hand and signaled that Chen Limu did not have to get up. He sat opposite him and smiled and said, "Do you claim your surname is Jiang?"

Chen Li's eyes were pale, "I, I made up my mind casually."

"It's okay, the surname Jiang is my family, so I can speak better." Jiang Yun was silent for a while and reached out and said, "Take it over."

"Ah?" Chen Li looked surprised.

Jiang Yun shook his head gently and expressed his disappointment, "I know your surname is Chen, what is your name?"

"Chen, Chen Xun."

“How old is it?”

“Forty-eight…”

"Your mother is almost seventy years old, right?"

Chen Xun nodded.
