The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 38



Sun Shaozong vaguely remembered that there was a martial arts arena in the northeast corner of the Rongguo Mansion. He thought he would be teaching martial arts, riding, and shooting there. But when he came out of Rongxi Hall, Xing'er led him to the back house in the northwest corner.

"You might not know, Second Master Sun. The nearby places have been surrounded by people to pay a visit to one's parents or elders. Even Our Lord and Concubines Xue's family in the Lixiang Yard have moved to the northwest." Xing'er explained, "So the Second Young Mistress has made arrangements to set up a yard in the northwest corner for you masters to practice martial arts."

Tch~

Demolishing the martial arts arena left by the ancestors, and making a big fuss about paying a visit to one's parents or elders. It seems that this kind of teaching their young masters doesn't have to be too serious.

So Concubine Xue should be Xue Baochai's mother?

It’s just that he doesn't know what the other protagonist of this love triangle looks like.

"Dau!"

Sun Shaozong was sketching Xue Baochai's figure in his mind and this is when he heard a loud shout from the lower room. Following this sound, he saw a big man with a simple face coming up. Looking at his size, he was not much smaller than Sun Shaozong.

Seeing that Sun Shaozong was near, he tilted his eyes and despised Sun Shaozong. He asked, "Are you the Assistant Prefectural Magistrate Sun? Tell me, how much money are you willing to sell the red-haired Qian Xiang beauty to me?"

Hearing that the man spoke out these kinds of words boundlessly, Sun Shaozong's face suddenly sank.

Xing'er had followed him from Yangzhou to the capital. Naturally, he knew the love relationship between Sun Shaozong and Ruan Rong. He hurried forward to block him and said, "Master Xue, please don't joke like this..."

It turned out that this simple man was Xue Pan, Baochai's brother, the foolish Overload.

"Who's kidding!"

Xue Pan was ungrateful. He held Xing'er back with his arms outstretched, and said with a shy face, "Is three thousand silver money enough? Or five thousand silver money? Should that be enough?! If it's not good, I'll give you my concubine as a supplement. Is it all right? That Xiangling is the one I used to..."

Xue Pan was talking nonsense here. Unexpectedly, Sun Shaozong walked forward with a vigorous step. His left hand grasped his collar, and his right hand inserted into his crotch. With a slight and skillful effort, he lifted him above his head!

Before Xue Pan could react, he just felt that he fell first, and then a huge force came. Unexpectedly, he was thrown up two feet away!

"Be careful!"

"Stop!"

A few female screams came from the shade of the tree. Xue Pan was gesticulating with hands and feet in the air, but there was nothing he could do.

As the momentum of the flying disappeared, Xue Pan was experiencing a sudden fall again. Seeing that he was not far from the blue stone ground, he was about to gladly dash his brains out on the ground in an instant. Suddenly, he thought of a joke, ‘Alas, my life is over!’

At this moment, Sun Shaozong suddenly stretched out his hands and grasped his ankle, and he forcefully stopped his falling!

With another gentle push, Xue Pan made a roll on the ground like a gourd. He was rolling out so far away and was rolling in front of several women who hurried to the scene.

"Big Brother!"

"Uncle!"

Several women hurriedly came forward to inquire about Xue Pan, but another one of them greeted Xue Pan with a smile, and generously said, "I've made Erlang incur ridicule. My brother has always been reckless and was used to it, but he doesn't have any bad intentions. Please don't be too harsh with him."

After a pause, she added, "There’s me having a lookout for Miss Rong, I promise she won’t even have a shortage of her hair."

Sun Shaozong just returned the greeting and said, "What are you saying, Sister-in-Law? I just played a joke with Mr. Xue. How can it be enough to say it as ‘being particular’?"

It turned out that the woman who greeted her was no one else. It was Wang Xifeng, the Second Young Mistress of the Rongguo Mansion.

He saw that her pink face was full of spring and her eyebrows were pretty, her red phoenix eyes were slanting and showed a sharp evil look. She was tall and well proportioned. Her hips were round and uplifted, and a thin crack was stretched like a peach. It seemed that her figure was not below that of Li Wan.

However, Sun Shaozong and Wang Xifeng were easing the situation here. Xue Pan, who was over there, came back to his senses, and he jumped up and shouted at the top of his voice, "What kind of bullshit Assistant Prefectural Magistrate! You just succeeded because it’s a sneak attack. Don't think I'm afraid of you! If you have the guts to row down the lane and fight alone..."

Crack~

A crisp noise interrupted Xue Pan's provocation, a poplar with the thickness of a bowl was chipped off at the waistline area and fell on the roadside.

Sun Shaozong took back his right leg that swept on the poplar and said with a nonchalant smile, "Master Xue can fight alone, but it's better to sign the life and death certificate first. After all, if I fight seriously, I may not be able to hold my strength."

Xue Pan was shocked and gaped. How will he dare to say such nonsense as fighting alone again?

Wang Xifeng glanced at Sun Shaozong in amazement, then suddenly covered her mouth and said with a smile, "It’s enough, it’s enough. What are Erlang and this bastard pestering about? Hurry to do your business. It's important. Your Second Brother Lian and Baoyu must have been in a hurry."

As she said this, her right hand, holding the handkerchief, swung in front of him, and bursts of fragrant which came to his nostrils.

Sun Shaozong subconsciously took a deep breath, and then realized that something was wrong. He quickly bowed down and went with Xing'er.

Wang Xifeng watched him disappear at the end of the lane. She then turned around and poked her fingers on Xue Pan's forehead, and scolded, "You! How do you dare to provoke Erlang of the Sun family?! Even a hundred salt dealers who blade licks blood has been taken care of by him, not to mention you, you fool. Fortunately, he is a man of discretion. Otherwise, his anger will tear you to pieces. By that time, who can stop him in this house?!”

Xue Pan simply scratched his head and asked, "Isn't it Lieutenant Sun who fights the salt dealers on the river? What does it have to do with the stupid General Judgment?"

Without waiting for Sister Feng to speak, a woman next to her cut off by saying, "Brother, why do you always listen to half of what you are told? That Lieutenant Sun is now a civil servant and has already become the General Judge of the Central Judicial Office."

"Oh My God~!"

Xue Pan hit his forehead and said, "If I had known it was him, how would I dare to fool around?"

With that, he became excited again and struggled to catch up with Sun Shaozong. He shouted, "How can I miss such a hero? Let me go and make friends with him!"

Wang Xifeng, Xue Baochai, and others were unsure whether to laugh or cry. They scolded, pushed, and finally persuaded Xue Pan back to their yard.

Not to mention what kind of things the foolish Overlord did after he went back.

When Sun Shaozong went far away, he felt unhappy. He thought that such a powerful family as the Jia family should pay the most attention to the major defense for men and women. How could he spy on Ruan Rong's beauty?

For a while, he wanted to lessen Ruan Rong's visits to the Rongguo Mansion.

On second thought, only Lin Daiyu, Ruan Rong's god-younger sister, who was not familiar with the capital, could tell each other what she wanted. So he changed his mind and planned to arrange two more women and maids for Ruan Rong when she head back. In case of any conflict in the future, she would not suffer any loss.

As soon as he made up his mind, he heard the noise in front of him, someone cried out, "Jingqing, Jingqing, how could you have the heart to go like this?! sobbing... Jingqing!"

Is this the Rongguo Mansion or the theater?

How could such situations come out one after another?!
