The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion
Chapter 261: Reckless Siqi Seeks to Report to the Prosecution PrefectureChapter 261: Reckless Siqi Seeks to Report to the Prosecution Prefecture
Sun Shaozong arrived in the Capital only yesterday evening and entered the city unobstructed due to the presence of a North Korean envoy nearby.
It was already around midnight when he returned home, and he had planned to spend the night in his study without disturbing Ruan Rong or Xiangling.
Unexpectedly, as soon as his luggage was placed, the two women who received the news of his arrival came running, crying, and asking for warmth. They almost stripped off his clothes and examined his entire body.
So that night, Sun Shaozong naturally slept in the backyard hall.
This sleep lasted until noon the next day. Seeing Sun Shaozong waking up lazily, Ruan Rong immediately called the maid, put the big tonic in front of him, fanned it out at the head of the bed, and fed it into his mouth.
This meticulous treatment was almost as good as his son in swaddling clothes.
Sun Shaozong already had a good foundation, and his physical recovery ability was far superior to that of ordinary people. For the next two or three days, this persisted, and he was frequently tempted by the five maids while he was staying at Jinmen Mansion. At this time, he rubbed against Ruan Rong, which inevitably gave rise to some impulses.
Sun Shaozong couldn't help but want to hold on to Ruan Rong, but he was slapped away by Ruan Rong and earnestly persuaded, "You just got injured. You better rest for a few days, and it's not too late to move on with that fancy thought when you are recovered.
Seeing Sun Shaozong's playful and smiling face still entangled, she said again, "Moreover, your nephews have gone to see the result of their examination, and when they come back, they will have to report to you. If they see us playing wild, how should I live?
Sun Shaozong just took back his paws and chatted up. After spending half a month in Jinmen Mansion, he really forgot about the exam.
Do they know I'm back?
I visited them in the morning when I left home, but you were sleeping soundly at that time, so I didn't let anyone call you up.
It seemed that not only was it difficult to move, but he couldnt continue to lie in bed.

Sure enough, Ruan Rong was right. Just when he had just tidied up everything here, he heard from the outside that his three young nephews had come to greet him.
Sun Shaozong asked someone to invite them in. This was when he saw Sun Chengye's face full of frustration, even Sun Chengtao looked like a beaten eggplant and was looking listless.
At first, Sun Shaozong thought he had also failed the exam. He comforted himself with a few words and realized that he had actually passed the exam but was ranked second to last on the list.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong simply skipped him and asked about Yu Qian's grades. As a result, he had a confrontation with Sun Chengtao. Sun Chengtao was the second last, but Yu Qian passed and got second place.
If there were no accidents, even if Yu Qian couldnt win the third tier of the palace examination, he should still be at the top of the second tier.
Sun Shaozong was about to congratulate him with a few words, but he heard Yu Qian arch his hand and say, "Uncle, there is no Mr. Cheng's surname on the list, but your student Xiong Guang is among them.
As expected, he was a famous character in history. Even after winning second place, he still had the intention of paying attention to these details.
Speaking of Xiong Guang, he was one of the dozens of successful candidates in the imperial examinations at the provincial level who had previously worshipped under Sun Shaozong's sect. He originally looked like a person who didnt stand out, but he unexpectedly passed the imperial examination.
Since he passed the imperial examination, he would be considered under the wing of the Sun family in the officialdom. Therefore, Sun Shaozong immediately ordered someone to give away three hundred taels of silver to send as a gift to Xiong Guang.
Unexpectedly, the servant next to him took orders, but in a moment, he turned back with a hesitant demeanor.
Sun Shaozong then lowered his face and scolded, "What kind of expression are you making in front of your own family? Hurry up and tell me what happened!
Report to Second Master
The servant hurriedly said, "There's a woman outside who claims to be the close maid of the Second Lady of Rongguo's Mansion. She has something urgent and asked to see you
After a pause, he cautiously added, "That woman had a sad face and was crying, looking like she had peaches in her eyes. It does seem like something urgent happened.
Jia Yingchun's intimate servant girl came crying to see him?
Was it something unexpected that happened to Jia Yingchun?!
But that was not right either!
Even if Jia Yingchun has something to ask for, even if Rongguo Mansion doesnt care, she should still look for his Big Brother. But she identified herself to see him
Sun Shaozong felt his head full of confusion and couldn't guess the maid's intentions. However, Yu Qian already spoke up and said, "Since my uncle has something important to deal with here, we will step down first.
Uh
Knowing that he was intentionally avoiding it, Sun Shaozong didnt detain him. He only spoke orally and said, "Your Sixth Uncle will return soon. Don't forget to go and report to him so that he can be happy for you too.
The three of them bowed down and retreated.
Sun Shaozong gave a signal to the young servant and he immediately ran outside and soon led a tall and plump young woman in. If he were to take off her facial features and hair color, she would look a bit like a mix of European and American woman.
And without looking closely, one could feel the sadness all over her.
Was it really something unexpected that happened to Jia Yingchun?
As soon as Sun Shaozong thought of this, he saw the woman kneeling and crying out, "Greetings to Lord Sun. I would like to ask Lord Sun to avenge my cousin Pan You'an.
He was worried for a moment, but the servant girl came to him for personal matters!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSun Shaozong was speechless in his heart, so he lost a third of his close relatives and gained some dignity. He asked in a deep voice, "What grievances does your cousin have to file?
Report back to Lord Sun, my cousin was also a servant of the Jia family. Yesterday, he was out on business and was killed by a blunt weapon near Wumiao Street, and the murderer also took his belongings away.
She knocked his head on the ground and said in a mournful voice, "Please take action and find out the true culprit who killed my cousin and stole goods!
In Wumiao Street?
After a moment of contemplation, Sun Shaozong recalled the place name and said, "It should be the jurisdiction of Wanping County. Why, did the officials of Wanping County not accept this case?
They have accepted it.
Siqi raised her head and said with tearful eyes, "But those captors are useless, and there is no guarantee that the real culprit will be found. That's why I am here to
Before she could finish speaking, Sun Shaozong pursued her again, asking, "When did this case happen?
It happened last night.
Last night?
Sun Shaozong slapped the coffee table and angrily said, "Since it only happened last night, hasn't Wanping County just accepted this case? How dare you conclude that they can't investigate this case in such a short period of time? How dare you insult officials in front of me?
With the increasing power of Sun Shaozong's official position, only a few servants in the mansion dared to face Sun Shaozong's angry gaze directly.
But today, Siqi was bold. Upon hearing Sun Shaozong's harsh scolding, she even straightened up without hesitation and looked at him, saying, "If I had said something wrong, you could punish me. As long as you can identify the villains who have harmed You'an, I will be willing to be your servant and serve you for generations to come.
It was okay to serve for generations. With her identity, after marrying Jia Yingchun into the Sun Mansion, it seemed that she originally was to be a servant, wasnt it?
While thinking about it, he heard someone outside the living room asking roughly and grandly, "If Erlang finds out the murderer for you, are you really willing to do anything?
As he spoke, he saw Sun Shaozu walking in from outside.
Seeing the newcomer with leopard heads and steel sideburns, Siqi quickly turned around and knocked her head onto the ground, saying loudly, "Reply to the Big Master, although I am a servant, I always keep my word.
Sun Shaozu's gaze was burning as he stared at Siqi and said, "Then I'll decide for Erlang to handle this matter.
