Chapter 95 Cui Ling'er is kidnapped

Xu Jizu's brother-in-law Hu Juncai was very drunk. When he heard the name "Madam Cuiling", he suddenly became possessed and fell to the ground in the yard, crying and wailing.

Xiao Jingchuan and others stood by, all confused and not knowing what to say.

Upon seeing this, Ji Zu was worried that something might happen to his sister and brother-in-law, and was also anxious that there might be changes to the matters the general had instructed him to do. He became extremely anxious, and rushed to Hu Juncai and pulled him away.

"Oh, Juncai, what happened?"

"If you have something to say, tell me!"

"Cui Ling'er, where on earth is Xiao Lingzi?"

"Say!"

Looking at Hu Juncai who was only crying and doing nothing, Xu Jizu felt very depressed and almost yelled at the end!

Hu Jun was frightened by the noise and regained some consciousness, and began to speak.

"Ah! Ahh!"

"Brother-in-law!"

"It's me, Hu Jun, who is incompetent!"

"I'm sorry Cui Ling'er, I'm the one who's sorry to her!"

"My Cui Ling'er!"

Hu Juncai was a grown man, but he almost died from crying. The scene was very embarrassing.

"Hurry up and tell me! What's going on!" Xu Jizu was really angry this time and slapped Hu Juncai in the face to wake him up.

"Ouch!"

"what"

"Cui, Cui Ling'er, she..." Hu Jun covered his face and spoke, sniffing when he spoke to this point.

"There is not much going on at the government office today, so I came back earlier than usual."

"Cui Ling'er said that the rice stored at home was almost gone, so she thought she would go out and buy some while I was home early."

"Besides, the city has been very uneasy these days, and Cui Ling'er hasn't left the house for some time."

"So he begged me to go with him and bring back a piece of cloth."

"But, but just over half an hour ago, when we arrived at the cloth shop on the main street,..."

"what"

"I just happened to run into the Dashun soldiers who were escorting the money into the city!"

"In that team, there is an adjutant named Sun, who is the nephew of the leader, Sun Qianzong. He..."

"That thief was on his horse and immediately saw Cui Ling'er standing at the corner of the street!"

"Immediately send two bandits to kidnap Ling'er!"

"what"

Hu Juncai started crying again when he got to this point.

Xu Jizu, who was standing by, was horrified when he heard this!
"what?!"

"Cui Ling'er was... oh my!"

Ji Zu slapped his thigh, then he seemed to think of something else and asked hurriedly.

"Juncai, Juncai, aren't you from the government?"

"These bandits have occupied Yi County for a long time. You know them well, so why don't you find a way to save them!"

"Use your connections in the government to rescue my sister first!" Ji Zu said in panic.

"Hey, uncle!"

"Why didn't I go?"

"I heard the county magistrate talk about this matter of escorting the money into the city yesterday, but it does not affect our normal work, so I didn't take it to heart."

"Now that I have been hit by this kind of thing, how can I not go to the county government? I will go there as soon as possible." Hu Juncai said.

"Ah! What do you mean?!" Xu Jizu asked again.

"Woo."

"I'm begging for help from everyone!"

"We have asked Magistrate Wu to mediate!"

"The county magistrate also has his share of responsibility, and he wanted to help and mediate."

"But, I never thought that the grandson would not listen to the local officials at all!"

"County Magistrate Wu rushed in, only to be slapped back in the face!"

"The county magistrate, he said, he told me to just admit it!" "Go home and wait, don't say anything!"

"They said they had given us a message, so... I'll just stay with you for one night. When the officials who are escorting the salary leave tomorrow, Cui Ling'er will be released!"

"Woo."

"County Magistrate Wu has told us not to cause any trouble. This is the only way to keep Cui Ling'er safe. You will also get money afterwards!"

"If I am stubborn and insist on making some trouble, then my whole family will be implicated and there will be no peace in the future!"

After Hu Juncai finished his heart-wrenching speech, he burst into tears again.

Hearing this, Xu Jizu's hands seemed to be shaking. As a man of blood, he would never cry and wail like a woman like Hu Juncai.

He clenched his teeth, straightened his body, and paced back and forth aimlessly without knowing which direction to go.

Hearing the brother-in-law's cries again, he felt even more resentful and angry.

Suddenly, he kicked Hu Juncai hard, knocking him to the ground.

"Fuck you, you just know how to cry, what a coward!"

"Why did my father marry Xiao Lingzi to a coward like you?"

"My sister was kidnapped. Kidnapped. Oh my!"

"That's your wife! You don't even dare to fart!"

"Are you still a man?"

"You are still staying at home drinking... Drink... I told you to drink!"

"Coward, coward."

As he spoke, Xu Jizu almost lost control and started punching and kicking Hu Juncai without holding back, beating the scholar named Hu until he screamed and bled from the corners of his mouth.

Xiao Jingchuan watched from the side and felt that it was time to step forward. If things continued like this, someone might get killed. He didn't really care whether Hu Juncai was dead or alive, but after all, he had important matters to inquire from this man, so it would be better to keep him alive for now.

Sui Xiaolang winked at Gu Changting who was standing beside him.

Chang Ting understood, stepped forward, grabbed Xu Jizu, and pulled him to the side with difficulty.

"alright!"

"Ji Zu, stop it first!" Xiao Jingchuan stepped forward and said to him.

Xu Jizu was getting very angry at the moment, and found what he said hard to hear. He kept struggling with his hands and feet, and it seemed that he wanted to pounce on Hu Juncai again.

"Xu Jizu!"

Seeing this, Xiao Jingchuan increased the volume of his intimidating voice and shouted loudly.

The shout was so powerful that it made Ji Zu tremble all over and suddenly froze.

Finally, he was brought back to his senses from his rage!

Xu Jizu regained consciousness, looked up at General Xiao, and a feeling of grievance and anger surged in his heart. He knelt down in front of Xiao Lang with a thud.

"Ah! Ah!"

"I"

Knowing that it was impossible and difficult to ask for help, Xu Jizu was so upset that his face turned red!

After a moment, Xiao Jingchuan sighed and patted Xu Jizu on the shoulder.

Ji Zu collapsed, half leaning to the side, and simply sat down on the ground, dejected, with his fists clenched.

"Long Court!"

"Here!" Gu Changting replied.

"Go, bring me that rattan stool at the door!"

"Yes!"

After Xu Jizu stopped talking, Gu Changting freed his hands and, following Xiao Jingchuan's instructions, quickly moved the stool to the general's side.

Afterwards, Xiao Lang took two steps forward and sat down in front of Hu Juncai, who was half lying on the cold ground.

"You are Jizu's brother-in-law. I heard from him that your name is Hu Juncai, and you work as a clerk at the gate of a small government office in Yuyi County. Is that right?" Xiao Jingchuan spoke slowly and calmly.

"Ah, yes! That's right!"

"Sir, you are..." Hu Juncai's emotions have gone through ups and downs, and his brain is a little rusty now.

Qi Gang was in a state of confusion and had not paid much attention to the other people in the yard, so he suddenly asked this question.

"Haha, you don't have to rush to know who I am!"

"But there is one thing you'd better listen to me."
