Chapter 319: Ruthless

In the study in the back hall, Liu Wuwu was drinking the tea on the table, Gu Yifeng was sitting next to him to report today's events, and Uncle Chai was waiting at the door of the study. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Lord Gu, you have done a good job in this matter, after all, the case of the disappearance of this young strong man has made the people in this town panic, and it is good to solve it as soon as possible, but you have also done a good job in the matter of the county lord?"

Gu Yifeng frowned, lowered his head and said, "Returning to the national division, due to time reasons, the county lord's affairs have not yet had time to be dealt with, and I ask the national teacher for forgiveness." ”

Liu Wuwu's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment, then put the teacup in his hand on the table, then stood up from the wooden chair, and said calmly, "In that case, then Wuwu will go with Lord Gu to deal with the county lord's affairs now." ”

After speaking, Liu Wuwu didn't give Gu Yifeng a chance to reply, and strode out, Gu Yifeng saw Liu Wuwu striding outward, hurriedly stood up from the wooden chair, and followed closely behind him.

At the door, Uncle Chai saw Liu Wuwu and his own adults walking out of the study one after another, and originally wanted to ask a few questions, but seeing that the two of them were walking very quickly, he had to endure the words that were held in his mouth and quickly followed.

After a while, the three of them came to the door of the cell, and when the two guards waiting at the door of the cell saw that it was Liu Wuwu and Gu Yifeng, they hurriedly bowed their hands, Liu Wuwu glanced at the two catchers waiting at the door, and then looked at Gu Yifeng on his side, and said indifferently.

"Lord Gu, I don't know where the criminal who injured the county lord is being held? Please also ask Gu-sama to take a look. ”

A touch of deep thought flashed in Gu Yifeng's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Okay, then please ask the national teacher to come with the lower officials." ”

Soon, under the leadership of Gu Yifeng, Liu Wuwu finally came to the door of the cell where the criminal was held, only to see that the cell was dark and damp, the criminal was lying on his side on the dry grass, and the cut hands were still congealed with dark blood, and the gouged eyes were also swollen very scary, and some dark blood was condensed outside the eyes, which looked very scary.

The convict lying on his side on the dead grass seemed to hear the sound of someone coming, listened attentively, then sat up from the dead grass and said, "Who is it?" Are you here to let me out? ”

Liu Wuwu glanced at Gu Yifeng and said loudly, "Lord Gu, what are you waiting for?" ”

The convict sitting in the cell heard the sound of someone talking, hurriedly stood up from the dry grass, groped the direction of the cell door, walked forward, and said excitedly, "Master Gu, are you here to let me out?" ”

Gu Yifeng glanced at Zheng Ziye, and a touch of sympathy crossed his eyes, he knew that Zheng Ziye and Lin Zijun were in a catastrophe this time, but Lin Zijun deserved it, but this Zheng Ziye died a little worthless, after all, he was not the mastermind of this matter, and Zheng Ziye just wanted to buy a daughter-in-law with a little silver, but he didn't want to encounter such a major event that cost his life, which can be regarded as a profound lesson to the world.

"Uncle Chai, I'll leave it to you here." Gu Yifeng said in a deep voice.

Uncle Chai glanced at Zheng Ziye in the cell, then at Gu Yifeng and Liu Wuwu, nodded and said, "My lord, please rest assured, I will take care of it here, and please avoid it for both the national teacher and the adults." ”

Liu Wuwu nodded, then turned around and left, and then Gu Yifeng reluctantly turned around and followed.

On the other side of the yamen, Mingyue was sitting in the room dressing up, because she had a nightmare last night, so she slept a little more today, and she didn't want to wake up at this time It was already three o'clock in the afternoon, she felt that she seemed to be sleeping too deeply, and then turned her head to look at the maid beside her, and said loudly.

"Xiaoju, has the national teacher come to see me today?"

Xiao Ju, who was combing Mingyue's hair, paused, shook her head and said, "Back to the county lord, the national teacher has been discussing the case of the disappearance of the young strong man with Lord Gu since early in the morning, so he hasn't come to see the county lord yet." ”

"Oh." Mingyue replied a little disappointed, picked up the white jade-colored hairpin on the dresser and handed it to Xiao Ju beside her, "Come, Xiao Ju, put this hairpin on my head for me." ”

"Yes, County Lord." Xiao Ju replied respectfully, then took the pearl hairpin in Mingyue's hand and put it on her head, and said with a smile on her face, "County Lord, you really look good wearing this pearl hairpin, it can really reflect the temperament of the county lord." ”

"Huh." Mingyue was amused by Xiao Ju's words, and said with a smile, "Xiao Ju, your little mouth is really sweet, but you can really speak, the hearts of those who listen are warm, say, what reward do you want, I will reward you." ”

As soon as Xiao Ju heard that the county lord rewarded him, a flattered look crossed his eyes, and he hurriedly knelt beside Mingyue, shook his head and said, "The county lord misunderstood, Xiao Ju doesn't want any reward, Xiao Ju just wants to serve the county lord well by the county lord's side, and ask the county lord to fulfill Xiao Ju." ”

Mingyue glanced down at Xiao Ju who was kneeling beside her, and a trace of doubt crossed her eyes, it stands to reason that ordinary maids are happy when they hear that they want to reward them, don't want it, why did this Xiao Ju hear that she was going to reward her, not only was she not a little happy, but she also showed such a panic, which really made her a little confused.

But there is one thing she still sees clearly, that is, this girl is not greedy for money, a little girl who is not greedy for money, but it is very rare, and there is indeed such a girl around her, it is better to bring this girl back as her personal maid on the way back to the palace, at least she will be regarded as one more available person in the palace in the future.

Thinking that there was another available person by her side, Mingyue's mood couldn't help but feel much better, and she said with a smile, "Okay, Xiaoju, I didn't punish you, what are you kneeling down to me for, hurry up." ”

Xiao Ju, who was kneeling on the ground, glanced up at Mingyue, and saw that Mingyue really didn't mean to punish herself, so she couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Didn't the county lord drive Xiaoju away?" ”

Mingyue was stunned for a moment when she heard Xiaoju's words, and then said loudly, "Drive you away?" Xiaoju, when did I say I was going to drive you away? ”

"Then just now the county lord said that he wanted to reward Xiao Ju, doesn't that mean to drive Xiao Ju away?" Xiao Ju, who was kneeling on the ground, murmured, after all, several maids were also kicked out of the mansion after being rewarded by the county lord, if she accepted the reward, then wouldn't it be not far from the time to leave the mansion?

Mingyue listened to what Xiao Ju said, and suddenly cried and laughed, "Xiao Ju, I think you may have misunderstood, what about me, I rewarded you with things because you did a good job, but if you don't do a good job, I will kick you out, do you understand?" ”

"The previous handmaidens drove them out of the house because they didn't do a good job, but you're different, you did a good job, why did I drive you out of the house? Tell me, am I right? ”

Xiao Ju nodded, feeling that what she said was very reasonable, and nodded, "Oh, so that's the case, please rest assured, Xiao Ju will do things well in the future." ”

I will definitely not let the county lord drive me out of the mansion, Xiao Ju said silently in her heart in the next words, she didn't want to leave Lord Gu's mansion at all.

Mingyue saw that Xiao Ju heard what she said, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile, and said softly, "Okay, Xiao Ju, you don't have to kneel, hurry up, if you kneel like this, I'm afraid I'm going to faint from hunger, and if I faint at that time, you will commit a big crime." ”

When Xiao Ju heard this, he hurriedly stood up from the ground and said anxiously, "County Lord, then Xiao Ju will go to the kitchen to serve good food to the County Lord now, and ask the County Lord to wait for a while." ”

"Hmm." Mingyue responded in a low voice, waved her hand, "You go, I'll wait for you in the house." ”

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ju turned around and walked out towards the door, not wanting to meet the oncoming national teacher and Gu Yifeng as soon as she walked to the door, Xiao Ju hurriedly lowered her head and saluted the two.

"Slaves and maids see the national teacher, see Lord Gu."

Liu Wuwu glanced at the maidservant in front of him and said indifferently, "Get up." ”

"Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie." Xiao Ju said respectfully, and saw Gu Yifeng waving his hand at her, so she hurriedly walked in the direction of the kitchen.

Inside the house, Mingyue, who was sitting in front of the dresser, heard the sound of talking from the door, and hurriedly got up and walked out, seeing Liu Wuwu and Gu Yifeng walking in from outside the door, Mingyue suddenly raised a smile on the corner of her mouth, and quickly stepped forward.

"National teacher, you're here."

Liu Wuwu nodded towards Mingyue and arched his hand, "Wu Wu sees the county lord." ”

"See the county lord for the next official." Then Gu Yifeng also hurriedly saluted, Mingyue saw the two saluting to herself, shook her head helplessly, and said loudly, "Okay, national teacher, Master Gu, there is no one in this house, why are you saluting me?" Let's sit down. ”

"Lord Xie." The two replied at the same time, and then lifted their robes and sat down, Mingyue saw that both of them sat down, and then sat aside, at this time, a maidservant girl walked in front of Mingyue and the three of them, saluted the three of them, and then picked up the tea on the table to serve hot tea for the three of them, and then the maid retreated behind Mingyue.

Mingyue picked up the hot tea on the table and took a sip, instantly felt warm in her chest, looked up at Liu Wuwu, and said loudly, "National teacher, has the young man's case been dealt with?" ”

Liu Wuwu took a sip of the tea in the cup, nodded and said, "Don't worry, the county lord can rest assured, this matter has been dealt with, and after the county lord is rested, we can go back to the palace." ”

"Oh." Mingyue responded a little disappointed, suddenly thought of something in her mind, and hurriedly looked up at Liu Wuwu, with a touch of coldness and humiliation in her eyes, bit her lower lip, and said softly.

"Has the matter of the county lord been dealt with?"

Although Mingyue said it very quietly, Liu Wuwu and Gu Yifeng heard it very clearly, knowing that Mingyue still cared about this matter in her heart, although she acted as if nothing had happened on the surface, but I am afraid that there was still a certain shadow and mustard in her heart.

"Please rest assured, this matter has been handed over to Uncle Chai to deal with, and Uncle Chai will give the county lord a satisfactory answer in a while, and ask the county lord to wait for a while." Gu Yifeng said with a serious face.

A complicated color flashed in Mingyue's eyes, and she turned her head to look at Liu Wuwu, and saw that Liu Wuwu was giving herself a reassuring look, so she was relieved and sighed, "Okay, since Master Gu handed over this matter to Master Chai to deal with, then the county lord hopes that when Master Chai comes back in a while, he can give the county lord a satisfactory answer." ”

"Don't worry, Uncle Chai will definitely give a satisfactory answer to the county lord." Gu Yifeng said with a serious face, knowing that Mingyue still didn't believe him in his heart, after all, he had said before that he would release the criminal, but since yesterday after being mentioned by the national teacher, Gu Yifeng had actually thought about not letting the criminal out, because he knew that once the criminal was released by himself.

Then the reputation of the county lord will be ruined, the face of the royal family will be endangered, and the lives of everyone in this yamen will be destroyed, he can't joke with everyone's lives, and he can't let the reputation of the county lord be ruined, and Zheng Ziye and Lin Zijun deserve it.

Although Mingyue was still a little uncomfortable with what Gu Yifeng said that day, seeing that Gu Yifeng's attitude was so serious and good now, the discomfort in her heart also dissipated, she turned her head and glanced at Liu Wuwu, and said with concern.

"National Teacher, Master Gu, have you all had lunch? If they don't eat, the lord of this county will let people go to the kitchen and tell them to get more. ”

Liu Wuwu didn't refuse, and said with a light smile, "Then it's troublesome for the county lord." ”

Gu Yifeng originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Mingyue's smiling appearance, he immediately fell silent and did not speak, he also acquiesced in this way that he wanted to eat here, and then Mingyue instructed the maid behind him.

"You hurry up and go to the kitchen and tell Xiao Ju to say hello to the people in the kitchen and ask them to get more food, just say that the national teacher and the adults are eating here in the county lord, let them hurry up."

"Yes, County Lord." The maidservant standing behind Mingyue replied respectfully, and then hurriedly walked out.

After the maidservant left, Mingyue looked at Xianliu Wuwu, and then said, "National teacher, you go out this time, it can be regarded as a dangerous future, can you tell this county lord about the strange things you encountered along the way?" And the second brother, does he perform on weekdays? ”

Liu Wuwu was stunned for a moment, then put down the tea in his hand, and said with a light smile, "County Lord, we are almost boring along the way, and we haven't encountered any strange things, so there is nothing to say, as for the prince's performance along the way, he is brave and resourceful, and he treats Wuwu and others very well." ”

Mingyue looked at Liu Wuwu in astonishment, and seeing that he didn't continue, she couldn't help but say loudly, "That's it?" Doesn't the national teacher have anything else to say? ”

Why does she think that the national teacher is perfunctory to her? (To be continued.) )
