C52 The marquis' residence was sealed off for private activities

Strange?

When he said this, even the people at the surrounding tables perked up their ears to listen.

After all, these ordinary citizens normally did not have much fun, so they liked to listen to gossip from the officials' families.

When the young man saw that everyone's appetite had been lifted, he said mysteriously, "You probably don't know, but during the fifth or sixth fragment of the night, a rat disease suddenly broke out in the Wanning Marquis Mansion. What you don't know is that a large number of rats charged straight into the Marquis Mansion. "Oh god, that scene was so scary. Those mice were sharp and sharp, and they had bitten quite a few people."

"W-mouse?" Everyone was astonished.

The young man nodded, "That's right, hundreds or thousands of rats entered the Marquis Mansion just like that. The Marquis Mansion is filled with miserable cries, it sounds like it's filled with people."

The man spoke as if he had seen it with his own eyes. His expression was firm and mysterious.

The others, on the other hand, looked at each other in dismay. It was obvious that they didn't quite believe him and felt that this was unthinkable. After all, how could Lao Shu enter the Wanning Marquis Mansion together? Isn't this too strange?

However, the corner of Mo Weinong's lips curled up slightly, and she slowly took another sip of tea.

The people eating in the hall seemed to be attracted by the commotion, and they all listened attentively.

From time to time, guests would enter the door, and there was probably some news about the Wanning Marquis Mansion as well.

Not long after, this place became a circle, and Ye Zichen could hear a few sentences from time to time.

"I also heard that most of the women in the Marquis Mansion were scared senseless. No matter how brazen the male servant is, he couldn't stand to have so many rats enter his house. All of them were so scared that they pissed their pants."

"Isn't that so? At that time, I was carrying a burden to the city to rush to the city. When I passed by the Wanning Marquis Mansion, the miserable screams inside almost scared me to the point that I thought I was causing a ghost. "

"I heard that many things in Wanning Marquis Mansion have been bitten, including tables and chairs, various precious books and paintings, and even the indentations of many maids and servants were bitten to pieces."

"Also, the old women from Marquis Mansion are so scared that they can't even get up right now. Even the imperial physicians have gone over."

"I heard that when the Emperor received the news, he flew into a rage and sent someone to investigate what had happened. But how? "The rats have long since disappeared without a trace, and every time I think about it, I feel a chill down my spine. There are so many of them, could there have been plague?"

"Isn't that so? The imperial government is also worried about this issue. Right now, the imperial government has already ordered for the Wanning Marquis Mansion to be temporarily locked down, and other than people from the capital's Zhaoyin and the Imperial Physician Guild, no one else is allowed in or out.

"Tsk tsk, do you think this Wanning Marquis Mansion has done something evil? Wanning Marquis Mansion was assassinated just a day ago, and now they have met with such a strange thing in the blink of an eye. "

"That's right, we must have done something that the heavens cannot tolerate, otherwise, with so many rats here, they wouldn't even come to our disorderly southern part of the city, yet they went to that Marquis Mansion instead. Isn't this just retribution?"

Yes, retribution.

Mo Weinong laughed, and this was their retribution for attacking Lan Qin.

Just you wait, it's not over yet.

When Shen Qian returned, he was a little surprised to hear these rumors. He couldn't help but frown and sit across from Mo Weinong.

He originally thought that since the Master suffered in the Wanning Marquis Mansion, the twelve of them would make their move against Marquis Mansion.

Although the Prince Yan's Mansion and the rest were unable to rush in, they were still able to enter and exit quietly.

But he never thought that such a huge thing would happen in the blink of an eye in Wanning Marquis Mansion, it was simply unimaginable.

Rat plague? Just thinking about it made his hair stand on end.

Shen Qian shook his body inexplicably, before turning to face Mo Weinong, and said sternly: "Master, I just saw Shopkeeper Xu, he said that it just so happens that there is a private matter today, and he asked me if I want to take it, look ?"

He knew that Mo Weinong needed money now. Now that the old man was no longer here, she would listen to Mo Weinong's orders and do whatever they had to do in the future.

"Personal work?" Mo Weinong's eyes lit up, and asked softly: What kind of job?

"The son of the Minister of the Civil Service." Shen Qian was referring to the person the employer wanted to kill.

The two of them spoke in a hushed tone. Coupled with the noisy surroundings, it was quite convenient for them to talk.

The Minister of the Department of Public Administration? Mo Weinong frowned. Actually, it was not wise to involve herself with the Shangguan Family.

However ? Everything depends on the circumstances.

Mo Weinong lowered her eyes and asked, "Who is the employer?"

Shen Qian shook his head, "I did not reveal this."

"How confident are you?"

"One hundred percent." Shen Qian opened his mouth without thinking, "Let alone the son of the Minister, even the Minister himself, we have also fought before. It's just that at that time, the Old Master said that he only wanted us to teach him a lesson and let us hurt him and let us leave, thus allowing him to keep his life. "

"Oh?" Mo Weinong was curious, "You guys killed them before ? "Who are they?" Even the Minister of the Department of Public Affairs had fought?

"Corrupt officials."

Mo Weinong raised her eyebrows, the old man only asked them to train the assassins to deal with the corrupt officials? That was strange.

Could it be that the old tutor was a cynical person who wasn't used to seeing dog officials bullying the common people?

Doesn't look like it.

That old man is a nuisance.

"So this means that this Minister of the Department of Public Affairs is also not a good official?"

Shen Qian nodded, "Last time, after we injured him, he restrained himself quite a bit during this half year. However, that son of his actually relied on his power to bully others. He was still as lawless as before. He had offended a lot of people. "

Mo Weinong nodded, "Alright, I will take the job. "How much is it?"

Even though she felt that the killer was taking up the job, as long as the price was fair, it didn't matter whether the victim was a good person or a bad person.

Only, Mo Weinong felt that when it came to the Shangguan Family, it was better to be cautious.

Shen Qian said, "The employer bids 10,000 taels of silver."

Mo Weinong frowned, ten thousand gold was not little.

"Then this subordinate will go look for Shopkeeper Xu and get the deposit first."

"Go."

Shen Qian once again stood up and walked toward the rear courtyard.

Mo Weinong looked around, supporting her chin on her hand, she looked at her surroundings. There were more and more people discussing about the Wanning Marquis Mansion, and the number of customers at the table also increased.

It seemed that this matter was indeed too horrifying, causing everyone to discuss about it with interest.

Shen Qian returned very quickly, but this time, he had a box in his hands, and his expression was heavy.

Mo Weinong strangely put down the cup. What was going on? The silver notes in the box were understandable to her, but the expression on her face was rather subtle.

Sure enough, the moment Shen Qian came over, he pushed the box towards her and whispered, "Master, other than giving me a deposit, you gave me this box as well."

As he spoke, he opened the square, palm-sized box in front of him.
