Chapter 138 Ruan Jing
Sun Huang led everyone to the backyard, to the accountant Xu Shouxian, and handed over the balance and bills for this escort to the accountant Xu Shouxian.
This was the first time Duan Rong met Xu Shouxian, the "financial minister" of Yuanshun Escort Agency.
Xu Shouxian was thin, with gray hair, but combed neatly, wearing a moon-white robe with buttons, with a restrained look in his eyes, and he looked quite deep and shrewd.
Sun Huang saw Xu Shouxian counted the accounts, so he smiled and asked, "Mr. Xu, is the shopkeeper here?"
"Yes, in the Juyi Hall!" Xu Shouxian lowered his head to write the accounts, and answered without raising his head.
Duan Rong frowned slightly, this accountant was a bit arrogant! Sun Huang was also the head of an escort team after all, but Xu Shouxian didn't even raise his head when talking to him, which was a bit too cold and arrogant.
But Sun Huang looked normal, clasped his fists slightly, and led everyone out.
Since the shopkeeper was here, he would bring the escort team to pay respects to the shopkeeper as usual and report the situation along the way.
Sun Huang led everyone to the Juyi Hall, and only saw a few guards along the way.
"Escort leader, it seems that more than half of the guards in the backyard are missing!" Yao Liangrong muttered behind Sun Huang.
Sun Huang did not say anything, but he could see it, and coupled with the silence of the martial arts field in the middle courtyard, he could almost conclude that something must have happened in the escort agency.
Sun Huang led everyone to the door of the Juyi Hall. There was only one guard at the door of the Juyi Hall. They stood at the door and could see Ruan Fengshan, Luan Jingfu, and Xiao Zongting sitting inside the hall.
Moreover, Ruan Fengshan was discussing matters inside, and Zhou An, the personal servant who usually served outside, was nowhere to be seen.
Sun Huang saw that they seemed to be discussing matters inside, so he didn't dare to go in rashly, so he had to wait at the door with the escorts.
"Is it Chief Sun who is back? Come in!" Everyone stood outside the door for a few breaths before Luan Jingfu's voice was heard in the hall.
Sun Huang immediately led everyone into the hall.
Everyone entered the hall and paid respects to Ruan Fengshan, Luan Jingfu, and Xiao Zongting in turn!
After paying respects, everyone looked up and felt the solemn atmosphere in the air. Ruan Fengshan, Luan Jingfu, and Xiao Zongting all looked unhappy.
Ruan Fengshan seemed to sigh deeply before looking at Sun Huang and asking, "Captain Sun, has the journey been smooth?"
Sun Huang said, "It was relatively smooth. However, when the escort team was in Wancheng County, Escort Master Liu Ao suddenly left the escort team without permission and his whereabouts are still unknown!"
"Liu Ao?" Luan Jingfu was furious when he heard this, and his voice suddenly rose a few degrees. He swept his eyes back and forth and saw Duan Rong in the corner of the crowd. Luan Jingfu's pupils suddenly shrank.
Sun Huang immediately clasped his fists to Luan Jingfu and said, "Liu Ao is a stubborn boy, but he has become more restrained after years of hard work! There is something fishy about this incident, and I'm afraid there is something else going on!"
Sun Huang thought that Luan Jingfu was angry because of Liu Ao, so he explained immediately.
Luan Jingfu remained silent, with a changeable look on his face.
Duan Rong stood in the crowd and naturally saw Luan Jingfu's expression deeply...
"Mr. Luan, you will handle Liu Ao's matter!" Ruan Fengshan said solemnly, with a sense of fatigue in his tone.
Luan Jingfu immediately agreed.
Duan Rong noticed that although Luan Jingfu was aloof, he was always very respectful to Ruan Fengshan, and that was not a superficial socializing, but a kind of awe from the bottom of his heart.
Duan Rong couldn't help but glance at Ruan Fengshan, who was sitting on a tall wide chair. Ruan Fengshan looked worried, and his eyes were filled with a complex tiredness.
Sun Huang obviously noticed Ruan Fengshan's demeanor, and with all the abnormalities in the escort agency, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did something happen in the escort agency?"
Ruan Fengshan just frowned when he heard Sun Huang's question, and seemed a little tired, leaning his body on the armrest of the tall wide chair.
Luan Jingfu saw that Ruan Fengshan didn't mean to talk, so he said, "Yesterday, at the Xiaoman Dragon Lantern Festival, Young Master Ruan Jing liked the excitement and insisted on going to see the Dragon Lantern Festival! Madam Chunying couldn't resist, so she hugged him and took the maids to see the Dragon Lantern Festival. Unexpectedly, the young master was lost in the street market!"
"Lost?" Sun Huang was full of surprise.
Everyone in the hall was also shocked.
Young Master Ruan Jing was the apple of Ruan Fengshan's eye!
Ruan Fengshan was already over 40 years old, and he had married several concubines but none of them gave birth. Unexpectedly, he had sex with a maid who came with him as a dowry, and she became pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy, named Ruan Jing.
The maid's name was Ma Chunying, and Ruan Fengshan was overjoyed at the time. He removed her from the status of a prostitute and took her as a concubine.
He also made her father the doorman of Yuanshun Escort Agency.
As the saying goes, a mother's status is determined by her son, and Ma Chunying's family quickly became the upper class.
Ruan Jing was only three years old this year, and was born smart and cute, which won Ruan Fengshan's favor. Although Ruan Fengshan was still trying to stay calm on the surface, his heart was actually in a mess.
"At that time, there were many people watching the dragon lantern festival. Madam Chunying was standing outside with little Master Ruan Jing in her arms, and there were three guards guarding them. Originally, nothing would have happened. However, the crowd suddenly started to push and trample, and the commotion pushed the little master inside, and he was forcibly taken away from Madam Chunying."
"Madam Chunying screamed loudly, and the guards pushed and pushed to get over, but the guard closest to her was suddenly stabbed from the dark and died on the spot!"
No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one book, one forum, 6, 9, and one post!
Everyone was secretly shocked when they heard what Luan Jingfu said.
This was obviously premeditated, and the purpose was to kidnap Young Master Ruan Jing. And it was obviously a gang crime. Some people pushed and trampled in the crowd, some kidnapped Young Master Ruan Jing, and some dealt with the maids and guards around.
The key is who did this? What was the purpose? Could it be Ruan Fengshan's enemy?
Even if it was an enemy, it was a bit too despicable to specifically attack a child who just turned three years old.
"Everyone who can be sent out in the escort agency has been sent out. It has been almost ten hours since yesterday evening, and there is still no news." Luan Jingfu said, sighing and shaking his head.
The people of the second escort team finally understood why there was no one in the martial arts field, and the guards in the backyard had also decreased a lot. It seems that they were all out to find Young Master Ruan Jing.
It's been only ten hours, and there's still no news... A three-year-old child has no power to resist...
No matter how you look at it, it feels like a bad omen!
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed into the Juyi Hall while running and shouting.
The Juyi Hall has always been solemn and serious. This person rushing in with such a shout is too reckless.
But when they saw who was coming, everyone dared not say a word. The one who ran in was the doorman of the escort agency, Ma Chunying's father, Ma Wentao.
Ma Wentao ran and shouted: "Boss! There is news about my little grandson..."
When Ruan Fengshan heard that there was news about Ruan Jing, he immediately jumped down, supported Ma Wentao, and said: "There is news about Jing'er? What news, tell me quickly!"
Ma Wentao's eyes turned red, and he handed the silk book in his hand to Ruan Fengshan, saying: "Boss, look!"
Ruan Fengshan took the silk book.
Ma Wentao continued, "Just now, someone shot an arrow at the door of our escort agency!"
Ruan Fengshan opened the silk book and took a look, and his heart ached immediately.
The crooked characters on the silk book were exactly the characters of Ruan Jing, who had just learned to write. Ruan Fengshan was thoughtful, but when he saw the characters on the silk book, Ruan Jing's usual cute appearance seemed to be in front of him.
He had a son in his middle age, and he loved him very much. Ma Chunying doted on him even more than him. The child was only three years old, but he fell into the hands of the murderer. He didn't know what kind of suffering he had suffered and how much humiliation he had endured. Ruan Fengshan looked at the smears on the crooked characters and murmured with trembling lips: "Jing'er..."
