On the way!
Qin Yun suddenly had an idea!
"Stop!"
Xiao Ju and Qing Shan both looked at Qin Yun, and even the young attendant driving the horses stopped!
"Master, are there any other questions?"
Qin Yun looked at the road ahead, narrowing his eyes. "I told you, this trip... I came in secret!"
"Now that you've investigated the situation in these three small towns, tell me about the situation in the residences of the three town lords!"
"Yes, Master!" Qing Shan lowered his head.
"Qingshui Town, the Town Lord is Cao Dewang. He has one wife and four concubines. He has a son, Cao Shun, who is studying at Qingshan Academy in the capital!"
"Furong Town, the Town Lord is Su Daqian. He has one wife and one concubine. This person seems to have few wives and concubines, but he is licentious. Almost all the maids with good looks in his residence have been taken advantage of by him! He has three daughters. The eldest daughter, Su Momo, and the second daughter, Su Wenwen, are already married. The third daughter, Su Feifei, will come of age in two years!"
"Suyun Town, the Town Lord is Wang Sanxi. He has one wife and six concubines. He has no born children yet, but two of his concubines are pregnant!"
Qin Yun crossed his arms and said solemnly, "Hearing you say this, these town lords seem very rich. Even a small town lord can afford several concubines! They must not be short of money!"
"Master, what do you plan to do next?"
"These towns are desolate. There must be many dilapidated houses!" Qin Yun pulled aside the curtain. There were few open shops on both sides of the street, and even if there were, they were just a few households scattered here and there.
"Xiao Ju, go and find three secluded and uninhabited dilapidated houses! Preferably, the three houses should be connected!"
"Qing Shan, tonight you will find a way to secretly abduct Cao Dewang, Su Daqian, and Wang Sanxi to the houses. After the kidnapping is successful, put each of them in a separate house!"
"Yes, Master."
"Yes, Young Master."
Xiao Ju and Qing Shan responded together, then got out of the carriage and went their separate ways to carry out their duties.
Qin Yun also got out of the carriage at this time.
Two young attendants followed behind to protect her.
Walking in the middle of the sparsely populated street, Qin Yun frowned slightly.
If these three small towns are not dealt with soon, they will become ruins sooner or later!
By then, the people will either flee or die! There will be nothing left here!
"Sir, you haven't rested for two days. Why don't you go and sleep in the carriage? Or go to an inn!" the attendant asked with concern.
Qin Yun shook his head. "How can I sleep when this town has become like this!"
"Forget it, looking around, Qingshui Town is just like this. I'll go back to the carriage and wait for Xiao Ju!"
Qin Yun waited in the carriage for about an hour before Xiao Ju returned.
"Young Master, your servant has found three abandoned houses. The three houses are connected, but they are very dirty. I'm afraid some snakes, insects, rats, and ants will crawl out tonight!"
Qin Yun's lips curved evilly. "That's even better! These people live comfortable lives every day, so they probably haven't lived with snakes, insects, rats, and ants before!"
"Young Master, you are so wicked!"
Qin Yun tapped Xiao Ju's forehead. "I am acting on behalf of heaven. How am I wicked? This is the retribution they deserve!"
Xiao Ju stuck out her tongue and smiled playfully. "Your servant knows, Young Master is wicked... Your servant likes it!"
Qin Yun shrugged, unable to stand it. This girl's courage is quite substantial!
"Alright, shut up! You talk too much!"
"Young Master, the house is just ahead. Shall we go there now?"
Qin Yun stroked his chin. "Is that house easy to find? Can Qing Shan find it later?"
When Xiao Ju and Qing Shan left earlier, they seemed to have gone in opposite directions.
"Young Master, don't worry. Qing Shan has already thoroughly investigated the terrain of Qingshui Town! He knows exactly where the houses are located!"
Qin Yun nodded. "Let's go!"
Following Xiao Ju's instructions, the attendant stopped the carriage in front of the three consecutive dilapidated houses.
Xiao Ju helped Qin Yun out of the carriage.
Qin Yun walked up to the door of a dilapidated house.
Slowly raised her hand.
As the tip of her index finger touched the wooden door,
"Bang!"
The door panel fell to the ground on its own.
The moment it fell, dust billowed up!
Qin Yun and the others quickly covered their mouths and noses and retreated a few steps!
"Master, let your servant go first! This place is too sinister!"
When the dust gradually dispersed, Qin Yun stepped forward two steps.
And poked her head inside.
This place had been abandoned for some years.
On both sides of the yard, wild grass and vines grew everywhere, and there was a thick layer of dust on the ground!
If it weren't for the intention to scare those three, she wouldn't have come here!
"Xiao Ju, let's go to the inn and book a few rooms. After Qing Shan catches those three, we'll come back!"
Xiao Ju quickly nodded in agreement. "Your Master's idea is good!"
The main reason is that these dilapidated houses are prepared for those three, so they won't join the fun for now. It's enough to know where they are!
In the inn!
Xiao Ju booked a private room for Qin Yun. After entering the room, before Qin Yun could wash up, she fell asleep as soon as she got on the bed!
When Xiao Ju entered the room with hot water! Qin Yun was sleeping soundly!
Seeing this, Xiao Ju had no choice but to quietly withdraw from the room!
This sleep!
Qin Yun slept directly from the afternoon until the evening!
When she woke up, Qing Shan had also finished his business and returned to the inn!
"Master?" Qing Shan called out softly outside the door!
Qin Yun had just woken up and was sitting at the wooden table, taking a sip of cold tea.
Seeing Qing Shan return, she immediately got up and opened the door!
"Creak" the door opened!
Qin Yun let Qing Shan quickly enter the room, looked around, saw no one, and quickly closed the door again!
"How is it? Is the matter handled?"
Qing Shan stood in front of Qin Yun, lowered his head, and said, "Your servant has successfully tied up Cao Dewang, Su Daqian, Wang Sanxi, and the other three to a secluded dilapidated house!"
Qin Yun patted Qing Shan's shoulder and said with joy, "I trust you to handle things! Were there any problems in the middle?"
Qing Shan shook his head!
Qin Yun was very satisfied. "Alright, you must be tired too. Go down and rest for a while!"
"Master, aren't you going to interrogate those three?"
"It's still early. I'll go in the middle of the night. I'll scare them first in the early part of the night to break their spirit!"
"Yes, Master." Qing Shan didn't say anything more. After reporting the matter, he quietly withdrew from the room.
Not long after Qing Shan left the room, Qin Yun went to Xiao Ju's room again.
"Xiao Ju, Xiao Ju...?" Qin Yun called out softly, afraid that her voice would be too loud and attract others!
It was already dark, and everyone had just fallen asleep!
"Young Master? Are you awake?" Xiao Ju opened the door, and Qin Yun smoothly entered the room!
"Are you still sleepy?" Qin Yun looked Xiao Ju up and down, seeing that the girl seemed to have just woken up!
"Your servant saw the Young Master sleeping in the afternoon, so she went back to her room to sleep for a while. She's not sleepy now!"
"That's good, come here... I have something fun to give you!"
Something fun?
Xiao Ju's spirits rose. She leaned close to Qin Yun, and Qin Yun whispered the task in Xiao Ju's ear. The more Xiao Ju listened, the more spirited she became, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Young Master, your servant guarantees to complete the mission!"
