Chapter 340: Witnesses

"Governor Xu," Xu Ziyu was working, Yun Cheng pushed the door in from the outside, saluted Xu Zihe with a fist, and then said: "The concierge said that there is a son who claims to be Lan Xiang and wants to find a son." ”

"Claiming to be Lan Xiang's son?" Xu Ziyu raised his eyebrows, put down the brush in his hand, and thought that Xu Zigui sneaked out of the palace with Lan Xiang disguised as a man to find him, and suddenly his eyes were dyed with a smile, and he said with a smile: "Lan Xiang, you don't know each other, go and invite them in." ”

Yun Cheng nodded yes, and thought that his aunt and grandmother took Lan Xiang to disguise themselves as men and went out of the palace to go shopping to find their master. On weekdays, when Xu Zi returned to the boudoir, because of his relationship with Xu Ziyu, Lan Xiang and Yun Cheng often intersected, and the relationship between several people was also good. But I didn't expect Yun Cheng to go out quickly to the yamen, but he only saw a figure, and Yun Cheng could guarantee his life, it was a **naked man!

Yun Cheng's first reaction was that this person kidnapped Xu Zigui and a few of them, and came to threaten his master, so he didn't need to ask clearly, he stepped forward to capture him, grabbed the person's two hands, and let him carry his back behind him, and was about to ask Xu Zigui's whereabouts, but the person seemed to be frightened, shouting for mercy.

"Official, official, official, spare you, official, no matter the small things, the small ones are just the ...... who came to pass the word"

When Yun Cheng heard this, he was even more angry, twisted the man's two hands hard, and said viciously: "Say! Who sent you? Where have you hidden people? ”

As soon as the man heard the question, he thought about what a son had just explained to him, and the man was trembling again, thinking about whether he had become an accomplice, and his face immediately turned pale: "Yes...... It's a son...... He led people to ...... in the small bun shop."

Kidnapped someone in a bun shop? Yun Cheng found that he didn't understand the kidnapper's mind very well......

It turned out that the one who was captured by Yuncheng was the second child of the steamed bun shop sent by Xu Zigui to move the rescue soldiers.

Seeing Yuncheng's strange expression, the shopkeeper thought that he didn't believe his words, so he hurriedly said: "That boy said let the little one call himself Lan Xiang, and let the little one come over to find the official master and bring someone to rescue him." ”

It seems that the shopkeeper thinks that Yuncheng is Xu Ziyu.

"What did you say?"

Yun Cheng frowned, let go of one of the man's arms, and walked towards Xu Ziyu's office with one of his arms: "I will go to the governor in a while and say your words again." ”

Here, Yuncheng took the shopkeeper to Xu Ziyu's office, and Xu Zigui over there was surrounded by a group of officials at this time......

Xu Ziguizheng looked coldly at the leader of the group of servants, but saw a woman break through the crowd and hugged Saucer, crying: "Mother's Saucer, why did you come here!" ”

Seeing this, Xu Zigui frowned slightly, and observed the woman quietly, before he said lightly: "Di'er, didn't you tell your brother that your mother was dead?" Who is this woman? ”

"You have such a wicked heart!" Who knows, before Die'er could speak, the woman holding Saucer let go of the hand holding Saucer, pointed at Xu Zigui and scolded: "The old lady is not dead yet, you curse the old lady in order to abduct the old lady's child!" The old lady is impatient to see that you are alive! ”

It's like a shrew.

But when he looked at the group of servants on the side, he cried again, Chu Chu was pitiful: "The officials have all seen it, it must be this vicious son who wants to kidnap the slave's saucer, and he also lied to the child that the slave family is dead." ”

As he spoke, he bent down and hugged the dish tightly, and the crying pear blossom brought rain: "Poor Saucer, don't be afraid, my mother is here with the officials, tell the officials quickly, how this person deceived you." ”

Then the woman let go of the dish, took him by the arm, led him to the leader of the officials, and said, "Good boy, speak quickly." ”

The words are full of tenderness, like a picture of a mother and a child. But Xu Zigui's eyes stayed on the hand holding Saucer for a long time, and after a quick flash of sarcasm in his eyes, he walked a few steps to Saucer's side and squatted down, rubbed Saucer's head, and said, "Saucer, tell these Uncle ladies what you just said to your brother." ”

After that, he looked at the dish encouragingly, and said: "Don't be afraid, my brother is a very powerful person, and my brother won't let them hurt you." ”

Xu Zigui originally thought that he would have to say a lot of words to make Die'er speak, but he didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, Die'er raised his head to look at himself, and his eyes, which were already as lifeless as a dry well when he saw the group of people coming, returned to the light when he just saw himself, and looked up at Xu Zigui, his eyes were full of expectation: "Really? ”

Xu Zigui was stunned for a moment, then smiled, rubbed his head with a smile at Shang'er's expectant eyes, and said with a smile: "It's true." ”

Die'er was originally the child who was accused by them, but since he followed Xu Zigui, Xu Zigui bought him food, and took care of him, which was very good to him, and he was no longer willing to say the words they instigated, although he didn't know what betrayal and ingratitude were called, but since he was a child, his mother taught him, others gave you a drop of water, you have to repay the whole spring, the implication, since the little Saucer Er mother taught Saucer to know how to "the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by the spring". So although Die'er doesn't know how much his words will affect Xu Zigui, in Die'er's heart, these officials are all bad people, and Xu Zigui is a good person. At this time, Xu Zigui said that he was very powerful, and he was not afraid of them, and he let himself tell the truth, so can he tell the truth? Maybe this boy can help him find his father......

Hearing Xu Zigui's assurance, Di'er's already bright eyes brightened a little, and he was about to say something more, but Xu Zigui saw that the hand holding Di'er's arm was tightened again, and the owner of that hand even opened his mouth and wailed: "Di'er, your father's whereabouts are unknown now, if you have another accident, how can you let your mother live." ”

The threat is self-evident.

Xu Zigui sneered, looked at the hand holding the saucer again, and sneered, this person looked like he was holding the saucer's arm from the beginning, but if you look closely, you can see that this person has been pinching the saucer, and I think that at this time, the thin arm of the saucer should have been bruised.

wants to use Die'er's father to threaten Die'er, and also involved Die'er's deceased mother, these people are not afraid that they will bully Die'er so much, Die'er's mother will come back to them in the middle of the night to settle accounts!

Saucer first felt a pain in her arm, and then heard the woman say this, first she shuddered, and her originally bright eyes suddenly darkened, and her eyes began to flicker, as if she was struggling with something.

Xu Zigui sighed, put one hand on Die'er's shoulder, and sighed: "Saucer, don't be afraid, believe in my brother and tell the truth." ”

And the woman didn't admit defeat, first glanced at Xu Zigui provocatively, and then immediately changed into a sad look, changing her expression so quickly that Xu Zigui began to wonder if she was dazzled just now.

"Di'er, your father's whereabouts are unknown now, you must not have anything happen again, otherwise even if your father comes back, he won't be able to live without you."

It seemed that the woman was going to threaten Saucer with his father's life.

Sure enough, this trick is the most effective for Die'er, although his father killed his mother and ran away, but for Die'er, his father is now his only relative, and even if he hates his father again, he is not willing to let his father die because of himself.

Therefore, as soon as the woman's words fell, Die'er cried in fear, and while crying, she said according to the words taught by those people before: "Saucer is playing on the street, and this son wants to bring Saucer to eat steamed buns." ”

Although Die'er is only five or six years old, he is also a smart person, and he did not leave any words between his words, and did not say that Xu Zigui insisted on taking him away according to what they taught, but only said that Xu Zigui wanted to take him to eat steamed buns, so that when he arrived at the Yamen, Xu Zigui also had room for defense, saying that he was just kind enough to take the child to have a meal.

Besides, as long as Xu Zigui followed those people into the yamen, then his task would be completed, and his father should be out of danger......

Xu Zigui didn't expect this child who was only five or six years old to be so smart, first raised his eyebrows, then stood up again, looked at the surrounding officials lightly, and said lightly: "Master just saw that this child was pitiful, and brought him over to eat a bun, but why are you so excited?" ”

After that, he looked at the woman, hooked the corners of his mouth, and sneered: "You said you are Di'er's mother?" What evidence is there? ”

"The old lady is his mother! What proof is needed for this! The woman looked like a scoundrel who you couldn't confirm anyway, and looked at Xu Zigui provocatively, and said proudly: "It's you, you said that you brought the child to eat buns because you saw him pitiful, who knows what your idea is!" The child is not sensible and thinks that you are kind enough to follow you, but the old lady is not stupid! I can't see your twisted intestines! ”

Xu Zigui sneered: "When the master saw this child, the child said to the master that his mother was dead, and you said that it was the child's mother, who knows if what you said is true!" ”

The woman sneered, looked disdainful, looked down at Saucer, and said, "Saucer, you sue him, who is the old lady!" Isn't it your mother? ”

Die'er hesitated for a while, and saw that the woman's eyes were full of threat, and was about to nod yes, but Xu Zigui rushed in front of him and asked, "Die'er, did you tell Brother SΓΉ that your mother died and your father ran away, and you were hungry for many days and asked your brother to take you to find your father?" ”

As he spoke, he looked down at the saucer, his eyes full of comfort.

Di'er hesitated and wanted to nod, but the woman said again: "The child is not sensible and does not know how to distinguish between right and wrong, so if you mislead him so much, he will naturally nod." ”

After that, he raised his head arrogantly, looked at Xu Zigui with his nostrils, and sneered: "Do you have any witnesses to prove that what you said is true?" If not, then the matter of your abduction and trafficking of young children will be confirmed! ”

The tone and appearance seemed to determine that Xu Zigui would not have witnesses.

Xu Zigui sneered, although his face was calm and indifferent, he was also anxious in his heart, thinking about why the shopkeeper hadn't come yet. Just took advantage of the time to watch the side dishes and explained a few words to the shopkeeper, and asked the shopkeeper to testify to himself first, and then asked the shopkeeper to go to the yamen in the name of Lan Xiang to find Xu Ziyu and tell Xu Ziyu that he was here and asked him to hurry up and rescue himself.

Originally, this place was not far from the yamen, and I originally thought that it would take a while for the shopkeeper to go back, but before this group of officials came, Xu Ziyu would bring the officers and soldiers to rescue him, but who knew that Xu Ziyu had not come over for a long time, Xu Zigui couldn't help but be anxious, did this group of people guess that they had such a hand when they came over again, and they had already taken precautions?

Originally, Xu Zigui thought of two relief plans, one is that if this group of officials had not come over when Xu Ziyu came, then when the time came, this group of people came over, and he directly said that it was because he saw the lost child and handed the child over to the officers and soldiers who were eating steamed buns. These two bars, that is, if Xu Ziyu came behind these people, then the shopkeeper would come in handy to testify to himself, and with Xu Ziyu on the side to help, a group of small servants naturally could not fight with Xu Ziyu and them.

But now that Xu Ziyu and the others have not come, the woman is pressing forward step by step, making Xu Zigui a little helpless for a while.

In fact, Xu Zigui didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but this time he saw this child was really pitiful, and the second is that the so-called reluctant child can't trap the wolf, since someone is willing to carefully set such a trap for himself, it means that there must be something to be found here. Besides, this time Xu Zigui went out of the palace privately to go to Zhu Xing's house to find out Zhu Xing's identity, and it was difficult for Xu Zigui not to think about whether these people had anything to do with Zhu Xing. Moreover, when he suddenly decided to leave the palace, no one notified him, but there were still people who knew their whereabouts, which means that there were still people in the East Palace who were secretly observing them. And with Mo Ziyuan's kung fu, he didn't find out, and it is not difficult to think that the person who secretly observed her and Mo Ziyuan was a powerful character.

Although she was anxious, her face became more and more calm, the woman thought that Xu Zigui had no evidence, and kept looking at Xu Zigui with arrogance.

The two of them stared at each other for a while, and just when the woman couldn't hold on and was about to say something more, the corners of Xu Zigui's mouth suddenly hooked, pointed to the shopkeeper who had just entered the door, and Xu Ziyu and the others, sneered: "Who said that the master has no witnesses, the witnesses of the lord are here."
