Chapter 299 Confused
"My cousin is inside, what happened at home?"
Luo Yue didn't care to reply to Sheng Sanlang's words, and hurried in.
"Third Sister—" the girl's eager cry echoed in the lobby.
Luo Sheng heard the shout and walked into the lobby from the backyard.
Luo Yue seemed to see a savior, and rushed over directly: "Third sister, something serious happened at home!"
Luo Sheng patted Luo Yue's hand, and said calmly, "No matter how big things happen, speak clearly slowly."
Luo Yue calmed down, choked up and said: "Suddenly a lot of officers and soldiers came and took father away. I saw that something was wrong, so I quietly slipped out from the back door to look for Third Sister..."
She had never encountered such a battle, let alone thought that one day officers and soldiers would surround the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
Up to now, Luo Yue is still shaking all over, and her fingertips are even colder.
"Did you say why your father was taken away?" Luo Sheng remained calm.
Sudden changes, she is not not panic, but there are already people who are more panic than her, so she is not allowed to panic.
Luo Yue shook her head wildly: "I don't know, my eldest sister and I got the news and rushed over when my father was being taken away. I don't know what happened."
"What about father, what did father say?"
"Father..." Luo Yue's mind suddenly went blank.
The scene was so terrifying that she couldn't remember it for a moment.
"Don't rush, rushing won't solve anything."
Luo Yue stared blankly at Luo Sheng.
The other party's quiet gaze made her heart that was about to jump out of her chest slowly fall, as if she had found a support.
"Father told us not to be afraid and take care of ourselves..." Luo Yue said this, tears rolling down the corners of his eyes.
Isn’t my father the commander of the Jinlin Guard? He usually takes people into prison. Why was he taken away by the officers and soldiers today?
Luo Sheng frowned deeply.
No useful information can be analyzed from the words of Chief Governor Luo when he was taken away.
"Go home first." She quickly made up her mind and told Sheng Sanlang, "Cousin, stay here to take care of the restaurant."
The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is really going to be in trouble, there is no need to trap Sheng Sanlang.
Where is Sheng Saburo Kenyi: "I will go back with my cousin."
Luo Sheng lowered his voice and said, "I have to trouble my cousin to take care of Luo Chen."
Sheng Saburo hesitated for a moment.
The boy's voice sounded: "Sister, I will go home with you."
Luo Sheng frowned and looked at the approaching boy, naturally unwilling to bring him into the whirlpool.
Luo Chen said with a sullen face: "When something happens at home, why should my sisters stand out and I hide? Does my sister want a younger brother who only knows how to hide when something happens?"
Luo Sheng swallowed the words of refusal, nodded slightly: "Okay, let's go back together."
Sheng Saburo followed to the door.
"Cousin, you should stay in the bar."
Sheng Saburo raised his hand and patted Luo Sheng's shoulder, with a firm tone: "Let's go back together. Isn't my cousin my elder brother?"
If he wasn't a cousin, could he be the waiter in the shop and eat with his stomach open every day?
I can’t enjoy it when it’s good, and hide away when I’m in trouble.
That's not what people do.
Hearing what Sheng Sanlang said, Luo Sheng had no choice but to stop persuading him.
"Girl—" Xiuyue hurriedly walked into the lobby from the back.
Luo Sheng said calmly: "The restaurant is still open."
Xiuyue nodded vigorously.
A group of people left the restaurant and hurried to the Governor's Mansion.
In the teahouse diagonally opposite, Wei Feng brothers and sisters had a panoramic view of all this and couldn't help but glance at each other.
"It seems that something happened to the Governor's Mansion."
"why do you say so?"
"Really?" Wei Feng stared in the direction of the restaurant, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
Luo Sheng hurried back, and saw that the gate of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was already full of onlookers.
Luo Yue was at a loss when she saw such a scene: "Third Sister—"
"Don't be afraid." Luo Sheng strode forward.
"Miss Luo is here!" Someone in the crowd yelled, and immediately parted ways.
Luo Sheng walked inside without squinting, turning a deaf ear to those discussions.
"The girl is back!" The servants of the mansion also shouted when they saw Luo Sheng walking in.
Such noise would have been reprimanded in normal times, but at this moment, no one cared to control it.
A group of aunts ran over holding wet handkerchiefs and weeping around Luo Sheng.
"Hey, the girl is back. The master has been taken away, what should I do?"
"Girl, will we all be arrested and beheaded? I haven't used up the good rouge I just bought from Hua Xiangrong..."
"Girl—"
"Enough, don't bother the girl anymore." The auntie scolded the crying aunts with a sullen face.
The crying stopped suddenly, and the aunts looked at Luo Sheng with tears in their eyes.
Luo Sheng looked at his aunt: "Does my aunt know why my father was taken away?"
Auntie shook her head, looking somewhere.
Luo Sheng looked over and saw Luo Ying and Luo Qing standing there, a tall figure with his back to her, as if comforting them.
That's Yoshinori Hiraguri.
"Third Sister is back." Luo Ying walked towards this side quickly.
Luo Qing also held up her skirt to keep up.
Pingli turned around, looked past the two sisters and looked at Luo Sheng from afar.
Luo Sheng walked over with a blank expression.
"Third Sister—" the two sisters called her with red eyes.
Luo Sheng nodded in response, looked at Pingli and called out "Brother".
Pingli's tone was as gentle as ever: "Third Miss, don't be afraid, I will find a way to save my adoptive father."
Luo Sheng raised his chin slightly and asked, "What happened to my father?"
Ping Li's face showed embarrassment.
Luo Sheng turned around and left.
"Where is the third girl going?"
Luo Sheng didn't stop on his feet, and said coldly: "Since the elder brother won't say anything, then I'll go out and inquire."
At a time like this, it's still a trick, either stupid or bad, and the person in front of him is probably the latter.
Ping Li chased after him and stopped in front of Luo Sheng: "Miss San, don't be impulsive, listen to me clearly."
"Speak, brother, I'm listening."
"Father—" Hiraguri's expression changed, as if he found it difficult to speak.
Luo Sheng looked at him calmly.
Luo Qing couldn't help begging: "Brother, please tell us quickly."
Earlier, she and the eldest sister asked about their father's situation, and the brother-in-law said that they should not worry about these matters, and let him handle everything.
But how could they not worry, it was their father.
"An official in the south reported on the adoptive father, saying that the youngest son of Zhennan Wang did not die, but was released by the adoptive father..."
"Zhennan Prince's Mansion?" Luo Ying and the others looked bewildered.
Luo Sheng's heart sank suddenly, and he tried his best to control the urge to look at Luo Chen, and asked: "There must be evidence for reporting, right? Is it possible to convict father with just a few words?"
Xiaoqi is in the wine shop, and Luo Chen is beside him. If they are really found out, it will not only be Dudu Luo who will be taken away.
Hiragiri smiled wryly: "Naturally, I have conclusive evidence."
"What evidence?"
"The youngest son of Zhennan Wang and the guards who rescued him have been arrested and taken to Beijing."
