Strange Interest Pavilion workshop.
"Pang Sige, this is the military order that General Yuchi gave you!"
Brother Chicken had just finished his lunch and was holding his big belly as he enjoyed the cool breeze under the willow tree in the workshop's courtyard. He was now half an employee of the "Li Group" and the workshop covered his food and accommodation. Back then, in order to make the workshop's employees work seriously, Li Zexuan specially sent the workshop's kitchen staff to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant for training for a period of time. In addition, Li Zexuan was willing to allocate money to the kitchen staff. Therefore, the food in the workshop was even better than some restaurants in Chang 'an City.
Just as Brother Chicken was about to fall asleep, a soldier suddenly rushed over with a warrant in his hand, bowed, and reported.
"Hmm?"
Brother Chicken's spirit was aroused. He opened his half-closed eyes and jumped up. He took the military order and opened it to see what was written on it:
"The family servants of the Imperial College's professors — Cui Shanyou, Lu Yanyu, Zheng Zhanli, and the other eight professors, recently came to the Right Marquis Mansion to report a case. They claim that there has been a lot of children's feces in front of their house recently. The eight professors unanimously believe that someone is causing trouble and hope that the Right Marquis Mansion can send Wu Marquis to arrest the culprit. This general will send you to investigate this case. Within three days, you must give this general a result!"
"Ah ~? A case actually came! Sigh, Xiong Da, Xiong Er, call five brothers and prepare to investigate the case! "
After Brother Chicken finished reading the military order, he somewhat reluctantly shouted at the two soldiers who were also napping not far away.
To be honest, after being idle for so long, not only did Brother Chicken's belly get fat, his spirit also became somewhat lazy. If it wasn't for Yuchi Jingde personally giving him the military order today, he really wanted to live his life comfortably like this for the rest of his life.
"Coming! Coming! "
When the two soldiers heard the sound, they quickly trotted over. The two of them had shifty looks and looked like a pair of brothers. Oh, no, if they stood together with Brother Chicken, they would be three brothers.
"Boss, if we leave, what about the workshop and Strange Interest Culture's safety?"
Xiong Er looked at the place where he was resting with some reluctance and mumbled.
"Pa!"
"Damn! You're so smart! Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? "
Brother Chicken slapped Xiong Er in the face and glared at Xiong Er, saying, "Go, go, go, go, go, quickly call someone for me! Laozi will go to the backyard and inform Old Ma! "
"Hehe! Yes, Boss! "
Xiong Er rubbed his head. He wasn't angry and laughed.
…
"Godfather Ma!"
Brother Chicken eagerly went to the editorial department of Datang Daily in the backyard, found Ma Zhou, and greeted him with a smile.
"Hmm? Is something the matter with Pang Sige? "
Ma Zhou was sorting out the news materials collected from all over Chang 'an. Hearing Pang Feiji's words, he stopped writing and looked at Pang Feiji.
Of course, he chose to ignore the nickname given to him by Brother Chicken. Otherwise, if he were to investigate further, wouldn't he be sulking every day?
"Hehe, Old Ma, this Pang has just received General Yuchi's order to investigate a case in the next few days. But Old Ma, you don't have to worry. This Pang will leave behind some brothers to guard the workshop and Strange Culture."
Brother Chicken said with a big smile.
"Oh? What case? "
A light flashed in Ma Zhou's eyes as he asked subconsciously. But after a moment, he realized his slip of the tongue and coughed dryly, "Ahem, this Ma misspoke. If it's not convenient for Pang Sige to tell, then just pretend that this Ma didn't say anything!"
Brother Chicken's face stiffened. According to the rules of the Right Marquis House, any case could not be told to outsiders. If caught, they would be charged with leaking military information. But Ma Zhou was an exception! During the time he was in the workshop, Ma Zhou gave him a lot of convenience. Moreover, this case, in Brother Chicken's eyes, should be a trivial case. Revealing a bit to Ma Zhou shouldn't be considered leaking secrets. Thinking of this, Brother Chicken quickly waved his hand and said,
"Haha! Convenient, convenient! It's also not a big case. There's no harm in telling Old Ma! "
As he said this, Brother Chicken roughly told Ma Zhou about the military order that had just been sent by the messenger. Ma Zhou had just casually asked, but he didn't expect to hear about such a case. The usually calm and wise Ma Zhou immediately deduced a shocking truth in his heart when he linked it to the recent events in Chang 'an City. His face darkened as he scanned the surroundings. Then, he pulled Brother Chicken and whispered,
"Pang Sige, come with me. Let's talk in private!"
"Ah ~? Oh ~ Oh ~ "
Brother Chicken was stunned and puzzled. After a moment, he saw that Ma Zhou had already walked far away. He quickly followed him.
…
Datang Daily editorial department, back office study.
Ma Zhou and Pang Feiji sat down one after another.
"Old Ma, you … Why did you ask me to come over?"
Seeing that Ma Zhou walked over with a mysterious look and even locked the doors and windows after entering the room, Brother Chicken couldn't help but feel his chrysanthemum tightened. Ah, no, his heart tightened. He secretly thought to himself that he had never heard of Ma Zhou having homosexual fetishes! What did this mean? What if … What if … He had followed him? Or …
After a fierce mental struggle, Brother Chicken finally mustered up the courage to ask.
Ma Zhou didn't know how to read minds and didn't know Brother Chicken's dirty thoughts. If he knew, he would definitely spit blood on Brother Chicken's face. Even if I wanted to find Uncle Rabbit, I wouldn't find someone like you!
"Pang Sige, have you heard about the recent 'eating shit' incident of the Imperial College's eight professors?"
Ma Zhou looked up and asked softly.
"I've heard about it! This incident has spread like wildfire in the city! I didn't think that these professors would act sanctimonious on the surface, but in fact, in fact, cough cough … "
"Then Pang Sige, have you ever thought about why General Yuchi would give this case to you alone since there are dozens of Sige in the Right Marquis Household?"
Ma Zhou didn't care about Brother Chicken's nonsense. He directly interrupted and asked in a serious voice.
"Ah? This … Is there any other explanation? "
Brother Chicken finally understood that Ma Zhou didn't call him over to "mess with him". However, after hearing Ma Zhou's profound words, he was suddenly dumbfounded and asked blankly.
Ma Zhou rolled his eyes. Why was this guy's brain so slow?
"Of course there is an explanation! Pang Sige, think about it. When the 'eating shit' incident of Professor Cui and the others broke out, who did they have a conflict with? Also, why did they get caught up in the 'eating shit' incident in just two short days? "
Ma Zhou had no choice but to guide him step by step.
After being together for so long, Brother Chicken already knew that Ma Zhou was like a think tank in the "Li Group". Now that Ma Zhou said this, he definitely wasn't shooting at random. He frowned and pondered seriously for a moment. Then, he suddenly said, "I understand now. Is it Little Fishy who is playing tricks behind the scenes? Could it be that Professor Cui and Little Fishy had a conflict before? That shouldn't be! Why have I never heard of it before? "
Ma Zhou had originally heard Brother Chicken say that he understood. In his heart, he was still thinking that this guy wasn't completely stupid! In the end, when he heard his last sentence, Ma Zhou was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He really wanted to smash Brother Chicken's head to see if it was filled with a lump of iron.
