An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

It's funny to say that the first people to discover the bodies of the two incompetent officials in the government office were Chen Zhengtang's two concubines, as well as Cui Huaping's wife and concubine.

It was a coincidence that the county governor and the county magistrate were close friends, so Chen Zhengtang's two concubines and Cui Huaping's wife had frequent contact and a fairly warm relationship. They often visited each other, sharing trivial matters, and they got along quite well.

It was common for Chen Zhengtang to not return home last night, so the two concubines didn't find it strange. Their status was not legitimate, so naturally they didn't care too much about the affairs of the government office.

So from midnight to dawn, the government office was in chaos, but they didn't pay much attention to it, and they didn't even think of sending a servant out to inquire.

The concubines only thought that the master would take care of his own affairs, and they just had to behave themselves and serve the master well.

The strange thing was that the County Magistrate and the County Commandant had come to the house twice in the morning. The first time, they said they were looking for the master, and they thought it might be urgent. But the second time, they actually said they were looking for the official seal, which made the two concubines feel that something was wrong.

"What do you think they want to do?"

One of the concubines couldn't sit still anymore, so she secretly ran to the other concubine's room, and the two began to secretly discuss something.

Another concubine frowned and said, "Could it be that these two are trying to seize power while the master is away? Or are they trying to use the official seal to do something bad?"

"No way? How dare they! Aren't they afraid that the master will come back and expose their skin?" One of the concubines was still a little skeptical.

"But the master isn't home now! He doesn't normally look for the official seal, but only comes looking for it when the master isn't home. He must be up to something bad! He might do something and let the master take the blame, then step on the master and take the position himself!"

The other concubine became more and more certain as she spoke, and she even began to believe it.

"But if that's the case, it would be terrible! If the master is harmed by them, we'll be finished." The honest concubine was also a little panicked, and her legs began to tremble.

"That's right! We have to find the master quickly and make him be on guard. Otherwise, we will suffer. When we return to the capital, that man will sell us out." Another concubine stamped her feet anxiously.

If they wanted to find the master, they had to leave the house. If they could find the master in the house, they would not come again and again. The two concubines naturally understood this point.

Before the two women even reached the government gate, a servant who had left and returned reported tremblingly, "Auntie, the gate is tightly surrounded by yamen runners and soldiers inside and outside. They won't let us in or out. If I ask a few more questions, someone will raise a knife. It's so scary."

The two men panicked even more when they heard this, and felt that someone was indeed planning a rebellion, so they naturally didn't dare to stay in the government office. They thought that even if they couldn't find the master outside, they could still save their lives, but who knew if they would be killed if they stayed in the government office.

If something really happened, the master would probably run away for his life, so how could he come back to save them?

The more talkative aunt said, "No matter what, we have to get out."

"But the gatekeepers won't let us out. What should we do? Didn't you hear that they were holding knives?" The honest concubine was a little worried.

"What are you afraid of? We are the master's men, they dare not do anything to us! If they still don't let us go, we will pester them and cry and make a fuss, so that the people outside can see us and see if they dare to stop us!"

So, the two concubines did not even take a servant with them, but just packed some valuables and hid them on their bodies and came to the gate of the government office.

The gatekeepers and soldiers stopped them.

One of the concubines' eyes reddened, tears on the verge of falling, and she shouted loudly: "Our master hasn't come home all night, and instead of going to look for him, you stopped us. What's your intention?"

Another concubine also joined in the commotion: "That's right! If something happens to the master, can you afford it? If you don't want to look for him, you can't stop us from looking for him."

The two concubines cursed at each other and acted as if they were determined to fight to the death and would not give up until they left the house. They even tried to pull and tug at the soldiers and yamen runners. The gatekeeper was frightened when he saw this, but he did not dare to use force against them and could only run in to report.

In the end, the two concubines won a great victory.

They walked into the government office triumphantly, one of them saying as they walked, "Well, I tell you, these grown men can't stand our noise! ​​If they don't let us out, I'll pretend to bump into the doorpost to scare them!"

"That's right. If we don't let them see how powerful we are today, we don't know how badly they will bully us!" Another concubine also agreed, but she started crying at the thought.

In this way, they relied on their persistence, crying and making a fuss, making the county magistrate and the county lieutenant feel a little difficult, but they did not want to offend them, so they had no choice but to let them go.

Finally left the government office.

However, when the two officials saw the two concubines walking out, they became more cautious and sent the captain of the police and two clever yamen runners to follow them.

The county magistrate even followed them to the door and gave instructions, saying, "Follow closely, maybe they can help you find Mr. Chen."

The county lieutenant was also very serious and said fiercely: "If you lose him, you don't need to come back."

They both had the same idea: if they kept an eye on their own people, they would always be able to find some clues.

After the two adults said this, the head constable and the yamen runners dared not neglect them and followed the two concubines to Manchun Courtyard. After not finding anyone, they retreated and followed them to the county government office.

It was estimated that after they went in, they might not be able to come out for a while, so the captain of the police swaggered in to have tea with an acquaintance, without letting anyone know that he was following them.

Two yamen runners were squatting at the door, chatting with the yamen runner guarding the gate.

It was not until this time that they learned that something had happened in the county government office and the county magistrate was missing, but no one had reported it to the county governor's office.
