Chapter 89: Reluctance to leave the cell

Lord Bai looked at Xie Zhuoyan, who had no fear in front of him, and finally admired it in his heart. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

What's more, when he said that rebellious sentence, the courage and courage without even blinking his eyes, Lord Bai had to admire.

According to the current situation, no one is groveling to the officials, let alone correcting the officers and soldiers in court, and even having to swallow a few mouthfuls of water if they say something unpleasant behind their backs.

Lord Bai seems to only believe in good and evil, not in high power, and now he has a good impression of Xie Zhuoyan, who is the same as himself in front of him.

But only if what she says is true.

"How?" Lord Bai asked.

"It's actually not difficult to prove their identities," Xie Zhuoyan said unhurriedly: "According to the stupid method, find their families one by one, and ask them in the past to find out if they are officers and soldiers of Xiangyang Mansion." ”

Lord Bai immediately said: "The dozen or so people don't know their exact information, if you really want to find their families, it will cost a lot of manpower and financial resources, just like looking for a needle in the bottom of the sea." ”

Xie Zhuoyan didn't feel a trace of displeasure when she heard this, and continued unappreciatively.

"Then it's better to let one of the people present prove it."

Xie Nanhao listened and glanced back at Gu Chengze.

Without thinking about it, I knew that the person Xie Zhuoyan was talking about was Gu Chengze.

As the eldest son of Lord Cheng of Xiangyang Mansion, it is naturally necessary knowledge to be familiar with the people and things up and down Xiangyang Mansion, and he has grown up in Xiangyang Mansion since he was a child, and he knows better whether these deceased are officers and soldiers of Xiangyang Mansion.

Xie Zhuoyan then turned to Gu Chengze and said, "I also ask Lord Gu of Xiangyang Mansion to come forward and testify for me." ”

Gu Chengze got up after hearing this, walked to Xie Zhuoyan's side, and turned to Lord Bai.

Lord Bai nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Gu Chengze immediately said respectfully but not humbly: "Please Lord Bai can carry up the corpses of a dozen or so deceased, so that the grass people can see clearly." ”

According to his request, Lord Bai asked the officials to carry all the dead into the hall one by one.

However, for a long time, the lobby was filled with gray corpses covered with white cloths, and for a moment there seemed to be a rancid smell wafting in the air.

The lobby was silent, only Gu Chengze paced back and forth for a while, squatted down for a while, and then got up and walked towards another corpse.

After taking turns and turning, a few moments passed, and Gu Chengze said to Lord Bai again after looking at the faces of all the corpses.

"The grass people don't dare to assert that they know all the dead people present, but nearly half of them are indeed officers and soldiers of Xiangyang Mansion, I'm sure they are indeed officers and soldiers of Xiangyang Prefecture."

Lord Bai knew that Gu Chengze was the eldest son of Lord Cheng of Xiangyang Mansion, but he was not a casual flatterer like other officials.

"The words of the eldest son of Lord Fucheng are naturally credible," Lord Bai said without any taboos: "But Gu Gongzi is not only the eldest son of Lord Gu, but also the husband of the suspect Xie, as the so-called one-day husband and wife for a hundred days, it is unknown whether Gu Gongzi is really telling the truth or lying because of the grace of husband and wife, right?" ”

Gu Chengze seemed to have thought that Lord Bai would say this, and he was not annoyed when he heard it, but said even more respectfully.

"Lord Bai's concerns are indeed necessary, but as long as we give the grass people enough time, my father and I will definitely be able to find out all the relatives of the deceased present and prove it."

Lord Bai was silent for a moment, his eyes turned around Xie Zhuoyan and Gu Chengze, and only said after a long time.

"Then I will give you a seven-day period, after which if the identity of the deceased can be accurately proven, the case can continue."

Xie Zhuoyan and Gu Chengze said in unison: "Lord Xie Bai." ”

"Retreat," Lord Bai said.

The matter of retrying the case has come to an end for the time being, Gu Chengze is standing in the cell, and Xie Zhuoyan in prison uniform is sitting opposite.

Xie Zhuoyan first got up and saluted Gu Chengze, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your help, the little girl will definitely repay in the future." ”

Gu Chengze hurriedly went over to help Xie Zhuoyan up, and said with a smile: "Why do you and I need to thank each other." ”

Xie Zhuoyan smiled awkwardly when she heard this.

Although Xie Zhuoyan and Gu Chengze have been married for three months now, Xie Zhuoyan has not really married Gu Chengze until now.

It's like just relatives and friends living under the same roof, and they can't even talk about friends, but just gentlemen's friends who talk like water.

What's more, hearing the word "husband and wife" from Gu Chengze, who has been silently resisting, Xie Zhuoyan felt that it couldn't be more discordant.

Xie Zhuoyan lowered his head and thought for a long time, but Gu Chengze didn't feel uncomfortable or embarrassed at all, he was only worried about Xie Zhuoyan now.

"Your performance in the hall today is very good," Gu Chengze said: "I was worried before, but now it seems that I can rest assured." ”

Xie Zhuoyan looked at Gu Chengze and blinked.

This sentence sounds like a father's words of concern to his daughter.

"It's just," Gu Chengze said after pausing for a moment and then continuing: "Now I must immediately rush back to Xiangyang Mansion to deal with the rest of the matter, and the retrial of the case is now half successful, and you can leave the remaining half to me with confidence." In any case, I will definitely prove the identity of those dead to Lord Bai within seven days. ”

"There's the eldest son of Lao Gu." Xie Zhuoyan said slightly on her knees again.

Gu Chengze smiled slightly, and he led Xie Zhuoyan to sit down at the wooden table next to him.

"It's just that I want to wronged you to stay in this cell for a little longer," Gu Chengze said and looked around, and then said as if apologetically: "This cell is humid and does not see the sun, you have to pay attention to your health, and I will also order someone to take good care of you." ”

"These are all trivial matters," Xie Zhuoyan smiled lightly and shook her head and said, "As long as we can succeed this time, the difficulties and obstacles we have encountered so far are not worth talking about." ”

Gu Chengze nodded and replied softly: "Hmm." ”

Then the two were speechless, and Xie Zhuoyan and Gu Chengze, who were sitting silently facing each other in the cell, looked a little out of place.

The woman is wearing a prison uniform but can't stop her posture and pride, the man is wearing a moon-white robe like a beautiful man coming out of the Toad Palace, even if it is surrounded by a stinky cell and a rusty iron bar, this scene in front of him is like a beautiful oil painting.

Xie Zhuoyan raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Chengze, seeing that he didn't say a word but didn't leave, just sat peacefully and calmly opposite and felt a little strange.

She was still waiting for Gu Chengze to leave, didn't Gu Chengze just say that he was going to leave immediately to go to Xiangyang Mansion.

Gu Chengze seemed to sense Xie Zhuoyan's thoughts, he raised his head to look at Xie Zhuoyan, and looked at her bright and deep eyes, and suddenly felt like a pair of eyes that had been engraved in his mind, and he couldn't forget it.

"I ......," Gu Chengze stammered for a moment and then fell silent again.

Gu Chengze didn't understand why he was reluctant to leave here.
