Chapter 165 Bringing the Black Ice Platform, looking for some fun?
As Zhang Fan left the palace, the cool night breeze dispelled some of his fatigue.
He got into the carriage, quickly calculating how to extract useful information.
The carriage had not yet reached the neighborhood where the Wu family residence was located.
Suddenly, the rickshaw stopped abruptly, and the driver's panicked voice rang out:
"Immortal Master, someone is blocking the way!"
"Who is it?" Zhang Fan frowned.
Two indistinct, drunken shouts and curses could be heard from outside the car.
"Get out of my way! Do you know whose territory this is?"
"Get out of my way! You dare block my path? You've got a death wish!"
Zhang Fan lifted the carriage curtain and saw two young men, their clothes disheveled and faces flushed.
He was swaying and blocking the carriage, pointing at the driver and cursing loudly.
"Who are they?" Zhang Fan asked the black ice armored soldiers beside him.
The armored soldier glanced at it and immediately replied in a low voice:
"Immortal Master, these two are Wu Liang's sons, the eldest son Wu Fa and the second son Wu Tian."
Wu Fa and Wu Tian also saw Zhang Fan lifting the curtain. They recognized him through their drunken haze, and their anger intensified.
"You're Zhang Fan?"
Wu Fa pointed at Zhang Fan's nose and cursed with a thick tongue.
"You...you monster, what do you want to do to my father?"
"Let me tell you, my father is the Prefect of Grain Supply!"
"How dare you lead men to surround our residence! You have absolutely no respect for Qin law!"
"That's right!"
Wu Tian chimed in from the side, "If you've got the guts... if you've got the guts, come down and have a go with me!"
Zhang Fan frowned deeply as he looked at the two idiots.
He had no interest in wasting words with them, and simply uttered two words:
Open your mouth.
Before he could finish speaking...
Two armored soldiers in black ice armor rushed out from beside him.
"Slap! Slap!"
Two crisp, loud slaps landed hard on Wu Fa and Wu Tian's faces!
The two were completely stunned by the slap.
They felt a burning pain in their cheeks, their heads buzzed, the world spun around them, and their mouths instantly filled with the taste of blood.
How dare someone hit them?
Zhang Fan actually dared to lay a hand on the son of an official of the imperial court on the streets of Xianyang.
Just as they were filled with shock, anger, and fear, and before they could react, Zhang Fan smiled.
"How come there are still some who escaped the net?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling undercurrent: "Suppress it!"
"yes!"
The Black Ice Guard stepped forward and, with a single move, dislocated the joints of the two men, pinning them firmly to the ground.
The intense pain instantly sobered Wu Fa and Wu Tian up considerably!
Only then did he realize that he had gotten himself into a huge mess, and he began to struggle and beg for mercy frantically.
Zhang Fan had already lowered the carriage curtain, preparing to continue on his way.
But just then, he suddenly thought of something.
His gaze was sharp as lightning, and he questioned in a cold voice:
"Where did you two just come from?"
This question made Wu Fa and Wu Tian freeze.
The fact that they could wander the streets shows that they weren't even in the Wu residence when the Black Ice Guard surrounded it.
The two stammered, their eyes darting around, neither daring to speak.
At this time.
A black ice armored soldier standing nearby reminded him:
"Master, these two are good-for-nothing playboys who spend their days in brothels."
"If they weren't in the manor just now, they most likely came from the 'Charming Fragrance Pavilion'!"
"That Meixiang Pavilion is owned by the Wu family!"
"The two brothers frequented this place every day, and everyone in the entire city of Xianyang knew about it."
"Meixiang Pavilion?"
Zhang Fan's eyes lit up instantly!
He was just struggling to find evidence of Wu Liang's crimes, but unexpectedly, the clues came to him on their own!
Zhang Fan broke into a bright smile.
He stepped down from the carriage, squatted down, and affectionately patted Wu Fa and Wu Tian's faces.
"Hehe, gentlemen!"
His laugh sent chills down their spines. "You've come at just the right time!"
He stood up and waved to the black ice guards behind him.
"Let's go to Meixiang Pavilion!"
The soldiers of the Black Ice Guard were puzzled. Why would they suddenly go to a brothel when they were investigating a case?
But His Majesty has decreed that all actions tonight shall be at the command of the Immortal Master!
They dared not ask any more questions and immediately took the Wu brothers, Wu Fa and Wu Tian, into custody!
They changed direction and headed straight for that intoxicating place.
Upon hearing that Zhang Fan was going to Meixiang Pavilion!
Wu Fa and Wu Tian, who were pinned to the ground, turned deathly pale.
They finally realized the enormity of their mistake!
"Immortal Master, spare us! We were wrong! We were really wrong!"
"Immortal Master, please spare me!! My father deserves to die! But I didn't do anything!"
The two began to beg for mercy frantically.
Zhang Fan sneered, not even bothering to look at them again, and turned to get into the carriage.
"Take them with you, let's go together!"
Without further delay, the group escorted the terrified Wu brothers straight to Meixiang Tower.
……
Inside Meixiang Tower.
At this moment, the lights are bright, the music is melodious, and the air is filled with the aroma of wine and perfume.
When Zhang Fan stormed in with a group of black-clad soldiers, the music and laughter in the entire hall abruptly stopped.
A shrewd madam, still charming and with a shrewd look in her eyes, immediately came forward.
Seeing this menacing force, alarm bells immediately went off in my mind.
She put on a professional smile and tentatively asked:
"Sir, you look unfamiliar..."
"Is there anything I can do for you to visit so late at night?"
"Or... do you want to have some fun?"
Zhang Fan looked around, his gaze sweeping over the panicked guests and girls before finally settling on the madam's face.
He smiled, but that smile sent chills down one's spine.
"Of course, we need to have some fun."
He spoke slowly.
"Are there... any younger ones?"
The madam's heart sank; she sensed something was extremely wrong.
Of course, there are young people among them!
But this young master doesn't know the code!
How did you know it was here?
News of the Black Ice Guard's secret blockade of the Wu residence had not yet reached this place.
She assumed it was some arrogant and ignorant nobleman trying to cause trouble.
He immediately denied it, his smile becoming somewhat stiff.
"You flatter me, sir. The girls at Meixiang Pavilion are truly exceptional!"
"They are all young and beautiful, I wonder if you are...?"
"Yeah?"
Zhang Fan interrupted her, his smile widening.
He gave a wink to the black ice guards behind him.
"Clang—!"
The heavy doors of Meixiang Tower were slowly closed, isolating it from the outside world.
Zhang Fan's voice echoed clearly in the hall, carrying an unquestionable command:
"Investigate! Dig three feet into the ground and investigate!"
The Black Ice Guards moved at the command, rushing into each room like tigers descending a mountain.
Chaos erupted in the hall as guests and girls scattered and fled, but they were quickly brought under control.
Before long, a soldier came to report:
"Master, a secret chamber has been discovered beneath the artificial hill in the backyard!"
Zhang Fan immediately led his men over.
The entrance to the secret room was dark and damp, and as soon as it was opened, a stench of blood hit you.
Upon seeing this, the madam's face changed drastically, and she rushed forward in a panic to try and stop them:
"Sir! That's...that's a wine cellar!"
"You can't go! You absolutely can't go!"
