Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate

Chapter 152 Sick?

Mei Susu: “????”

What is this scenario?

Everyone looked at Xuanyuan Che, not understanding what Manager Qian meant.

Shopkeeper Qian began to make up stories: "They took me to the county government to report the case!"

After saying that, afraid that they might not believe him, he added, "If you don't believe me, you can go ask Ergou's family. He ran into us on the street last night."

Everyone looked at each other, and then someone with quick legs went to look for Ergou's house.

Seeing the man chasing his shadow, his brows furrowed. He approached Xuanyuan Che and whispered, "Master, this man did see me last night, but there is one thing that is very strange. He suddenly rushed out from the street and blocked my horse."

Xuanyuan Che did not respond, and Mei Susu was also confused, not knowing what Shopkeeper Qian was going to do.

"Ergou's family, Shopkeeper Qian said you saw him going to the county government office to report a case last night? Who was Shopkeeper Qian with at the time?"

The so-called Ergou's family actually runs a steamed bun shop on the street. He is not very old, only about twenty years old.

A child must be given a mean name so that he is easier to raise. His mother called him Ergou since he was a child. Over time, everyone called him Ergou's.

He was originally a very honest person, but his eyes were always looking around, which ruined his honest appearance.

Ergou looked at the shadow on the steps, his eyes fell on Xuanyuan Che again, and then his neck shrank, apparently frightened by Xuanyuan Che's aura.

"I saw it last night, last night, I really saw it."

"Who is he with?"

Ergou trembled and raised his hand to point at the shadow on the steps: "Yes, it's him."

Everyone sighed, and their eyes changed when they looked at Xuanyuan Che and others.

Shopkeeper He also looked a little unhappy: "Sir, what's going on?"

Zhui Ying Bao Jian sneered disdainfully: "Even if I take him to report to the authorities, what's the use? We passed by here and heard that a child in the town was missing. Since we have clues about the thief, we should report it to the authorities. If we don't report to the county government, are we going to solve the case privately?"

"You outsiders don't know the situation. The mayor is a good man. How could he do such a heinous thing?"

"That's right, the mayor is a good man and would never do anything bad!"

"You must give us an explanation!"

"Yes! Give us an explanation!"

.......

Do these people have any serious illness?

Mei Susu listened to what these people said and looked at their crazy looks as they defended the mayor one by one. She thought of the CX organizations in modern times, which specialize in brainwashing people. Even if they are as bad as scum, they can still trick people into trusting them unconditionally.

At this moment, Mei Susu became very interested in the mayor and wanted to see what kind of person he was.

"Preaching? We help when we see injustice, how can we preach? If you want to preach, I'm afraid you are the wrong person."

Zhuixue's cold gaze fell on the shopkeeper Qian who was preparing to leave stealthily.

"Manager Qian, what did you say when you knelt in front of my young master last night? What are you doing now?"

The shopkeeper Qian had wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave the crowd, but when he was named, he straightened up and said with a wry smile, "I just mentioned it casually last night, with the intention of asking the government to investigate. I had no idea what you said to the people in the county government office, and they came and arrested me."

Just when Mei Susu was wondering what was wrong with arresting someone, a servant came running in from outside and shouted, "Oh no! The county magistrate is torturing the mayor!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone ran out.

Only a few well-dressed men were left, and the shopkeeper Qian had already slipped away with the crowd when the crowd left.

This situation was really confusing. Xuanyuan Che winked at Zhuiying, who understood and wanted to chase after him.

But as soon as he went down the stairs, he was stopped by the men.

"Who told you to leave? You can't leave!"

The long sword in Zhuiying's hand came out of its sheath with a swish: "Get out of here."

Shopkeeper He stepped forward to smooth things over: "Everyone, the mayor's punishment is the county government's business. It's useless for you to stop this young man. I think it's better for everyone to go and take a look together, so that the county magistrate can show mercy."

The man in the blue robe stepped forward and said, "Don't be a good person here. Before these people came, Qian went to the county government office and was beaten half to death, but he didn't ask the county magistrate to kidnap anyone. As soon as they arrived, the mayor was arrested. They are definitely in cahoots with Qian!"

"Right! I said that Qian was not a good person! Hmm? Where is he? Why did he run away?"

"Master, there is something wrong with this town." Zhuixue said coldly.

Xuanyuan Che turned around and walked back with a blank expression: "Chasing Shadow."

When Zhuiying heard Xuanyuan Che calling him, he glared at those people fiercely, put away his sword and followed them.

"master."

"Go check the mayor's background, and go to the county government office and ask the county magistrate to come see me."

Zhuiying responded. After the group entered the house, the men in brocade robes wanted to follow them, but they were stopped by Xuanyuan Che's guards before they could go up to the second floor.

Seeing his ferocious appearance, those people did not dare to act rashly and had to retreat in embarrassment. They thought that since it was only the second floor, they could just guard the stairs and they would not be able to leave.

Not long after, a shadow fell from the sky and climbed in through the window, holding in his hand a man dressed in the clothes of an eighth-rank county magistrate.

The man was knocked unconscious by Zhuiying, who threw him to the ground and poured a basin of cold water on him.

The county magistrate screamed in pain and climbed up from the ground.

When he saw Xuanyuan Che for the first time, he was stunned at first. After seeing clearly, he was so scared that his eyes almost popped out. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "I am Wei Changyuan, I am here to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Do you recognize me?" Xuanyuan Che poured a cup of tea and took a sip, then looked at Wei Changyuan lying on the ground with a cold gaze.

Wei Changyuan hurriedly replied respectfully: "I, your humble servant, was once fortunate enough to accompany Grand Tutor Wen into the palace for a banquet and to have seen your Highness's face from afar."

"In that case, do you know why I came to you?"

Just as Xuanyuan Che finished speaking, a small claw suddenly rested on his arm.

"Cheche, I'm thirsty." Mei Susu said pitifully, her big watery eyes looking at the cup beside him.

Xuanyuan Che pushed the cup in front of her without hesitation. Afraid of scalding her, he even tested the temperature to make sure it was ok before asking her to drink.

Wei Changyuan looked up and saw Xuanyuan Che put the teacup he had just drunk from in front of the cat.

After the cat licked it a few times, Xuanyuan Che refilled the cup with water without any hesitation, and had no intention of changing cups.

He suddenly remembered an incident at the palace banquet that year. A palace maid was dragged away because she accidentally touched the rim of Xuanyuan Che's cup.

Everyone in the palace said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loved cleanliness the most and that the palace maid had violated a taboo.

But now the person in front of me is sharing a cup with a cat. Look at the collar on the cat's neck, it is obvious that the cat is being pampered.

People outside say that the prince is cold-blooded and has a heart of stone.

Who would have known that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so fond of a cat in private.
