Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 322: The Thief Saint: Lu Zhan and Chu Wantang are real, more exciting than rumors

There was no sunlight in the prison. Marquis Yongchang looked like a ghost crawling out of hell. His old face was full of hideousness, but there was a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Lu Zhan looked at him calmly, but there was some sadness in his heart: "It's the Twelve Land Alliance."

"Who?" Marquis Yongchang's voice trembled, as if he was caught off guard.

Lu Zhan repeated, "The Twelve Immortals of the Earth Alliance."

Yongchang Hou pulled tighter, veins popping out on the back of his hand: "Why...why did they kill my son?"

Lu Zhan's eyes flashed with reminiscence, and he said calmly: "During the East China Sea dispute, the young marquis chose to cooperate with the Twelve Land Alliance in order to eliminate dissidents."

"Later, they found a black lotus. The young marquis wanted to split up with the Twelve Land Alliance, but the Twelve Land Alliance was greedy and turned against them at the critical moment. They chose to kill the young marquis and monopolize the black lotus. I was pushed into a desperate situation at the time and happened to see this scene. I killed the people from the Twelve Land Alliance and took the black lotus."

The prison cell suddenly became quiet, and Marquis Yongchang seemed to be pondering over Lu Zhan's words.

After a while, the Marquis of Yongchang spoke in a trembling voice: "Lu Zhan, do you dare to swear? If you lie to me, your cultivation will never improve in this life, and you will suffer the catastrophe of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder!"

"I swear." Lu Zhan bent down, pushed his hand away, and said calmly: "But why would I do that? The truth has been told to you, believe it or not."

Although it is difficult for Marquis Yongchang to make a comeback, his followers are definitely still there, and Lu Zhan cannot gamble with his own safety.

"Duke Xie has only one son, named Xie Chenling, but Xie Chenling is obsessed with cultivation. Duke Xie felt lonely in his later years and liked Lu Chou very much, so he changed his name to Lu Chenyi. Not long after, Lu Chenyi was promoted from a lieutenant general to a general, and successfully married the daughter of the prime minister. Now he sits on the position of a general."

After saying this, Lu Zhan strode away.

"In life, you have to be dirty sometimes..."

"Nothing, I just asked casually..." Lu Zhan seemed to be thinking about something, and then said, "Check General Lu and Duke Xie's mansion quietly, and tell me if you find any clues."

"Speaking of General Lu, he is truly a legendary figure. Who would have thought that a mere soldier could actually sit in the position of the current general?"

Hmm...why does this story seem familiar?

"Isn't the weapon used by General Lu the Fang Tian Hua Ji?" Lu Zhan said dimly.

Lu Zhan lowered his voice and said, "Since we are investigating the heart-stealing case, we should pay more attention to these court officials. Besides, this matter has not yet been concluded. I just want you to investigate it quietly. Go in person and don't let anyone else know."

This was not a secret at all. People in Bianjing City had heard about it to some extent, but no one dared to speak out.

All we can do is wait until Marquis Yongchang is executed, and then burn some paper to tell the other party the truth.

Lu Zhan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this...

Lu Zhan sighed and strode out the door.

……

Is your boss so stubborn?

This isn't the way a new official starts his job, right?

"But the Prime Minister disagrees with this marriage. Even if he marries into the wife's family, the Prime Minister's Mansion will not look down on a mere lieutenant general. But at this critical moment, Commander Yu was found guilty of occupying good farmland and usurping good women."

At that time, Marquis Yongchang was not Marquis Yongchang, but just an ordinary father.

The sun was shining brightly outside the door, and Lu Zhan couldn't help but squint. He turned around and looked behind him, his eyes were out of focus for a moment. The sky prison was pitch black and there was no light in sight.

The heart-stealing case was related to an official in the imperial court... Chen Beifang was not stupid, and he immediately understood the clue. He said, "Don't worry, I will go there myself."

Lu Zhan felt upset, but he had to make it right.

After Lu Zhan returned to the Demon Suppression Bureau, he called Chen Beifang over and asked him about the rumors about General Lu and Duke Xie.

Only the people from the Demon Suppression Bureau would bring it up from time to time and use it as a topic of conversation after dinner.

Lu Zhan half-lay on the chair, squinting his eyes and listening to Chen Beifang's talk.

Chen Bei had been working in Bianjing City for many years, so he could recite these things fluently:

The moon was above the willow branches. Lu Zhan left office and returned home without waiting for any news from Chen Beifang's investigation.

"Zhao Cuo was overjoyed and admired Lv Chou very much, so he introduced Lv Chou to his mentor, Duke Xie. Lv Chou was deeply grateful and said that he was blind at first, and immediately worshipped Duke Xie as his adoptive father."

Chen Beifang talked freely:

……

Chen Bei was shocked: "Ah? You want to investigate the Duke and the General?"

"The person in charge of investigating this case is none other than Zhao Cuo, a student of Duke Xie. However, Commandant Yu fled because he was afraid of being convicted, and Zhao Cuo was unable to capture him. Seeing that he was about to be held accountable by His Majesty, at this critical moment, Lu Chou actually brought Commandant Yu's head to see him."

If Duke Xie and General Lu really did something evil, no matter how well they cover it up, as long as they are investigated, they will find out something.

When Marquis Yongchang grabbed him and asked him in a panic, he knew that was the only hope of a father before his death.

"General Lu and Duke Xie?"

"After arriving in Bianjing, at a spring garden party, Lu Chou met the daughter of the prime minister and won her heart."

It is no secret that these two are well-known figures and their life experiences are very exciting and legendary.

Lu Zhan felt soft-hearted for a moment, but he knew in his heart that he must not tell the truth.

Chen Beifang blinked and shook his head: "Of course not, it's a pair of hammers. Why do you say that, Master?"

Behind him came the heart-wrenching roar of Marquis Yongchang, which was filled with anger, heartache and regret.

What the Marquis of Yongchang said might not be true, but since the other party mentioned it, it wouldn't take too long for his men to investigate.

"General Lu's original name was Lu Chou. He was from Jiangnan. He was just a local soldier at first. Later, by chance, he recognized Yu Duwei of their army as his adoptive father. After being promoted by Yu Duwei, he became a lieutenant general and made many contributions. Later, he followed Yu Duwei back to Beijing."

If this is false, secretly investigating it won't waste any time, and it's better than sitting there and doing nothing.

After Chen Beifang left, Lu Zhan looked at the sun gradually setting outside the window and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

The work in Bian Jing seemed easy, but any one of them was a big deal. Lu Zhan was full of worries, not as relaxed and happy as he was in Bian Jing.

As soon as I stepped into the yard, I saw that the house was brightly lit and a girl was sitting in the living room.

The girl's white dress was whiter than snow, her figure was as slender and flexible as the willows in Zhangtai, her face was bright and pretty, but unfortunately her chest was flat, like a flat fried egg.

But it was Chu Wantang.

Chu Wantang was holding a cup of tea in her hand. When she noticed him coming in, she turned around with a calm expression:

"came back?"

Lu Zhan didn't expect Xiao Chu to be waiting for him at home. As he walked into the house, he asked, "Why are you here at this time?"

Chu Wantang put down the cup, a worried look on his face: "After I came out of seclusion, I heard that you had offended the Thief Saint and were investigating the Fox Demon case... Can you handle so many things? Of course I have to come and see."

Lu Zhan was also a little tired, and he sighed when he heard it: "We have to investigate even if we can't find out everything."

After saying that, Lu Zhan raised his head and took a sip of tea, then asked, "You could have waited until tomorrow to do this kind of thing, but you chose to come here when the moon is high above the willow branches? Are you afraid that something might happen to me, so you came here to check on me?"

Chu Wantang's face turned red. She turned away and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense. I just came here to take a look."

Lu Zhan looked at her attitude, and suddenly stretched out his hand to her, holding her in his arms: "What's wrong with admitting it? We were like that in Huoyun Mountain, come and see that I am normal."

Chu Wantang's body in his arms suddenly stiffened, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he did not resist.

There was a smile in Lu Zhan's eyes, but his fingers had already begun to stroke his spirit ring.

Since Jiang Jiang was deceived by the thief saint, Lu Zhan has been very vigilant. When he returned home and saw Chu Wantang, he became even more vigilant.

However, Xiao Chu did like to come to the house in the middle of the night, and he never went through the main gate, so Lu Zhan was unable to confirm for a moment whether this was Xiao Chu.

Until during the conversation, the other party revealed a flaw.

It has to be said that the appearance and figure of the Chu Wantang in front of him are exactly the same as Chu Wantang. Not to mention him, even if Chu Wantang herself came, she would be a little surprised.

Even the personality was imitated in most aspects, and that cold and noble temperament was perfectly restored.

Unfortunately, the posture is wrong.

Xiao Chu is ignorant and open about feelings, sometimes so open that Lu Zhan even feels shameless.

If it was really Xiao Chu, when he asked "Are you here to care about me", Xiao Chu would definitely admit it frankly and would never act coyly.

In order to test the truth, he hugged the other person in his arms, but the other person did not resist.

What kind of Xiao Chu is this?

Secondly... Xiao Chu is indeed cold in front of outsiders, but that is because of the jade pendant. In fact, Xiao Chu's personality is very bright and generous.

The Thief King’s disguise was very similar, but he was still one step behind.

"We...you can't do this...what if someone sees us..." The fake Xiao Chu hesitated and was shocked at the same time.

When he heard that Lu Zhan had defrauded gold and silver in the name of the King of Thieves, the King of Thieves flew into a rage, feeling that his reputation had been ruined. He originally wanted to swallow his anger and take the blame.

But at this moment, Jianghu Pavilion suddenly intervened and slandered the Thief Saint, causing his reputation to plummet.

The thief was furious and vowed to steal the gold back and then sprinkle it on the gate of Bianjing to prove himself.

So she first disguised herself to deceive Jiang Ningshuang, intending to use Jiang Ningshuang as bait. After failing, she thought about it again and again and decided to disguise herself as Chu Wantang and directly deceive Lu Zhan.

Rumor has it that Lu Zhan and Chu Wantang were alone in Huoyun Mountain and had an affair. People originally thought it was all rumors, but today it seems... Lu Zhan and Chu Wantang are real, and it's even more exciting than the rumors.

I didn't expect that Chu Wantang, who appeared pure and innocent on the surface, was actually so coquettish behind the scenes.

Looking at Lu Zhan's skilled posture, he was probably already used to hugging, kissing and touching when he was in Huoyun Mountain. Who knows... The Thief Saint simply didn't dare to think about it.

Fortunately, I am also a woman, otherwise I would have vomited if a man held me on his lap like this.

"There's no one here... If you're really shy, why don't we go back to the room and do it?"

Lu Zhan groped Chu Wantang's body with his hands, thinking deeply.

The Thief Saint disguised himself as a woman and looked so much like her, even his expression and posture were similar... Could it be that he was actually a woman?

If she wasn't a woman, she would definitely be terrified if she was hugged like this by a man.

Lu Zhan also wanted to test the other party. Before confirming whether the other party was a man or a woman, he just said a few sweet words and dared not do anything further. What if he turned out to be a man, he would be traumatized in the future.

The Thief Saint placed her hands on Lu Zhan's chest and shook her head, "Don't go back to your room. I came here today just to check the situation. The Thief Saint will never give up. You are using her name to make money. She will definitely not give up. You have to be careful recently. And those gold bars... are you sure they are still there?"

Lu Zhan held her waist tightly and refused to let go: "I know you care about me, but don't worry, everything is in my ring."

"Xiao Chu" was a little worried: "The Thief Saint's method of stealing money is very clever. Even with the storage ring, it is impossible to stop her. And she is good at disguise. Her disguise technique is comparable to that of Master. I am worried that she will disguise herself as someone close to you to deceive you."

After these words were spoken, Lu Zhan's expression suddenly became serious. He stared at "Xiao Chu" without saying a word.

The thief's heart skipped a beat, and he said in a somewhat cold tone: "You don't suspect that I'm disguised, do you?"

In order to disguise herself as Chu Wantang, she took great pains to find out a lot about Chu Wantang's preferences and personality, striving to make the disguise perfect. Normally speaking, there shouldn't be any problems.

Lu Zhan shook his head: "I have no doubt about that. If she is really the Thief Saint, would she let me hug her like this?"

"..."

The sky was a little dark, and the Thief Sage sighed in his heart, saying, "Yes, if the Thief Sage was in disguise, she would have lost her temper if you were holding her like this."

“Maybe not.” Lu Zhan thought for a moment and said, “Maybe the Thief Saint is a woman.”

The Thief Saint didn't say anything, but her body was stiff for a moment. She tried her best to look intimate, wrapped her arms around Lu Zhan's neck, and whispered, "Why, do you still have feelings for the Thief Saint?"

"If she is really as beautiful as a fairy, I can't tell... Ouch..."

Before he could finish his words, "Xiao Chu" pinched his waist.

She said with a stern face, "It's fine if you're not clear with Ling Jiaoyue and Jiang Ningshuang, but I didn't expect you're still thinking about the Thief Saint."

"..."

Lu Zhan was shocked by her expression. The Thief Saint's acting skills were indeed extraordinary. She captured her look and posture perfectly.

If the relationship between him and Xiao Chu wasn't a bit complicated and ambiguous, Lu Zhan really couldn't guarantee that he could tell the difference.

This professional quality is much better than those young actors and actresses in film and television.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhan showed a lustful look and hurried over: "Hey? Are you jealous? What's there to be jealous about? Among these women, I always love you the most. It's just that you were cold and indifferent before, so I couldn't express my feelings. Now that I've said it, why are you still jealous?"

The Thief Saint listened to these sweet words and thought to himself that it was no wonder that Lu Zhan had a bad reputation, he was really good at deceiving people.

Before the Thief Saint could react, Lu Zhan could not wait to touch the storage ring: "Speaking of which, I have prepared an exciting way to play, I'm sure you will like it."

"Hmm?" The Thief Saint had a bad feeling.

Lu Zhan took out a bundle of whips and swung them vigorously, whispering, "The binding whip method I just developed will definitely make you want to die."

"..."

The Thief Saint looked at Lu Zhan, not knowing how to react for a moment. She felt that things were out of control.

It’s not that the plan got out of control, but Lu Zhan’s perversion was beyond her control, and Chu Wantang’s coquettishness was beyond her reaction.

She never expected that Chu Wantang, who appeared to be as pure as a saint, would play such a coquettish trick with Lu Zhan in private.

Even the binding was used...

I heard that the Demon Suppression Bureau was extremely worried during those days when these two people disappeared in Huoyun Mountain. But then these two people ended up living a shameless life in Huoyun Mountain?

The thief was at a loss.

In fact, there was another person who was as confused as the Thief Saint at this moment.

...

The wind was blowing loudly tonight, and Chu Wantang looked a little disheveled.
