Chapter 204 Coming to the door
"What's going on? Are you in such a hurry?"
Chen Xuan frowned.
If this hurried sound came from Xiao Liuzi.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.
After all, Xiao Liuzi's style is like this, noisy and noisy.
But, this voice came from Liu Jinyu!
You know, Liu Jinyu has been the boss for so many years after all, so he should be calm. If he suddenly became like this, something big must have happened!
"Master Chen, someone from the Zhao family in Hucheng has arrived! They've already arrived at the government office, and they're asking to see Zhang Tao by name! I suspect it's because of Zhao Zhong's disappearance!"
Liu Jinyu said seriously, "Besides, this person from Tiger City has unfathomable strength. At least I can't tell his depth!"
"Is it?"
Chen Xuan looked thoughtful. "The Zhao family finally sent someone to look for Zhao Zhong, right? Since you can't tell their depth, what does this mean? It means that their realm is higher than yours. The people of the Zhao family are quite powerful. Any servant they sent to look for them is at the martial arts master level.
Liu Jinyu quickly asked, "Master Chen, what should we do now?"
"What else can I do? Take me to see him."
Chen Xuan raised his chin and gestured to lead the way quickly.
Soon, inside the yamen.
As soon as he came in, Chen Xuan saw a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes standing in the yamen with his hands behind his back.
He looked around with a look of pride.
The yamen is a sacred place, a symbol of authority and status. Anyone who comes here must be respectful.
However, there was a condescending look in the eyes of this middle-aged man.
Although he didn't say anything, the expression on his face seemed to be saying, it's just a government office, nothing special!
In addition to this middle-aged man, Chen Xuan also saw another person, that was Ling Mo!
It seems that Ling Mo also knew that someone from the Zhao family was coming, so he hurried here.
As for Qin Tingyu, she was definitely not brought here. It is not convenient for her to show up now.
As soon as Chen Xuan arrived, Ling Mo immediately looked at him.
Chen Xuan immediately gave him a look, indicating that he didn't need to worry, he would solve the problem for him!
"Are you Zhang Tao, the governor of Mancheng?"
Zhao Fusheng saw that everyone in the yamen was looking at Chen Xuan, mistakenly thinking that he was the prefect.
I was just a little surprised. I didn't expect that Zhang Tao, the governor of Mancheng, looked so young.
But then again, Qin Tingyu's portrait also looks quite young.
Therefore, although he was surprised, he did not think much about it. After all, it was normal for rich people to look younger than their actual age because they took good care of themselves.
Chen Xuan smiled, not admitting it, but not denying it either. Instead, he politely bowed and asked, "Who are you?"
"Zhao Fusheng, the steward of the Zhao family in Hucheng!"
Zhao Fusheng said proudly.
Although when he was in the Zhao family, he played the role of a humble servant in front of Zhao Ting.
But outside, he is a big shot with great strength and status!
Just like the eunuchs in the palace, they were extremely respectful in front of the emperor.
But outside the palace, who would dare not curry favor with him?
Even the ministers in the court had to be polite to him.
"Oh, it's Manager Zhao. I've heard a lot about you!"
Chen Xuan smiled politely.
Anyway, when you come up, don't get angry with the other person first. Have a good chat about what's going on. If you can fool them, try to fool them. If you can't, it's not too late to get angry later.
"Does Magistrate Zhang know why I came to see you?"
Seeing that Chen Xuan was so polite, Zhao Fusheng was still putting on airs, but his tone was not as bullying as before.
"I don't know what brought Manager Zhao here?" Chen Xuan looked puzzled.
Anyway, he mistakenly thought he was Zhang Tao. Let it be a misunderstanding. It's actually a good thing.
"Is your wife Qin Tingyu in Mancheng?" Zhao Fusheng asked directly.
On the side, Ling Mo's eyes suddenly focused!
Sure enough, he came here because of Qin Tingyu's matter!
It must be Zhao Zhong’s disappearance that finally attracted the Zhao family’s attention!
When the matter was investigated, it was found that Qin Tingyu was responsible!
"Oh, Tingyu, isn't she in Tiger City? I haven't seen her in a long time. Why did Manager Zhao ask me this? Could it be that you and Tingyu are planning some kind of business deal?"
Chen Xuan showed a puzzled expression.
On the side, Liu Jinyu couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect that Chen Xuan was so good at talking nonsense. His acting skills were really good.
"You and Qin Tingyu are husband and wife, why haven't we seen each other for so long? Didn't she go back to Barbarian City?"
Zhao Fusheng was obviously very dissatisfied with Chen Xuan's answer.
Without even thinking, Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "Isn't it normal for a middle-aged couple like us to have a broken relationship? We've long since gone from being in love with each other to being tired of each other."
"Isn't it nice for me to hug a young girl in her teens in the prefect's mansion? Why should I care where an older woman is?"
This sounds like the words of a scumbag who abandons his wife after having fun with her.
Zhao Fusheng immediately looked at Chen Xuan with a strange expression, wondering why this prefect was so shameless.
Normal people have to have some dignity, and they speak and act decently.
A normal person's answer would be to say politely, "I am the governor of Mancheng. I am very busy on weekdays and have no time to take care of my family. I don't see my wife very often, so I have neglected her and I am sorry for her."
As a result, Chen Xuan said directly that the young concubine at home is more attractive and he is too lazy to care about his older wife.
Isn’t this person’s character a bit too bad?
"Are you sure you don't know Qin Tingyu's whereabouts?"
Zhao Fusheng said with a frown.
"Of course, we have been doing our own things for a long time. If I find my concubine, she won't interfere with me. Similarly, if she finds a gigolo in Tiger City, I won't interfere with her. We are an open couple."
Chen Xuan spoke seriously.
Zhao Fusheng suddenly felt his three views exploded.
Open couple?
What is this ghost?
He had lived for decades, but this was the first time he had heard such a statement.
Besides, in this era, it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines.
Men can cheat, but women cannot. No man will allow his woman to betray him.
And this governor of Barbarian City is so magnanimous?
It’s simply outrageous!
At the side, the muscles at the corners of Ling Mo's mouth twitched violently.
He never expected that Chen Xuan would say such a thing. It was simply outrageous.
Liu Jinyu couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, Master Chen, oh Master Chen, you really never stop until you say something shocking!
But after speaking out, they both could understand that Chen Xuan was trying to fool Zhao Fusheng and get rid of him.
"Manager Zhao, you must have been exhausted coming all the way from Tiger City. We in Man City don't have much in the way of things, but we have a lot of beauties. Do you want me to arrange for a few stunning beauties to serve you well?"
Chen Xuan suddenly raised his eyebrows in a lewd manner and said with a smile.
