The smile on Gu Xiaoman's face suddenly disappeared.

"What?"

She asked the girl, "Do you know why?" ”

The girl said: "It is said that Shen Yue is suspected of murder...."

Gu Xiaoman frowned, suspected of murder? This is not a joke, Shen Yue is not Zhao Wenbin, there is no powerful father to rely on, once the yamen suspects her, if no other suspect can be found, the case will basically be hastily closed, regardless of whether she is the real murderer or not, giving an explanation is the most important thing.

"Let's go, go to the Yamen...."

Zeng Shuo grabbed her and said, "How can you go like this?" I'd better go..."

Gu Xiaoman thought about it, her identity, she went to the White Tower, so people wouldn't say anything more to her.

At noon, Zeng Shuo came back, he frowned and said: "The situation is very unfavorable to Shen Yue, Lu Qiaofu's body was found at the southern end of the Huai River, and on the night he was killed, someone saw Shen Yue under the south bridge of the Huai River....."

"Who?"

"That man's name is Li Zhi, and he is a friend of Lu Qiaofu."

Li Zhi? Gu Xiaoman felt that this name was a little familiar, thought for a moment, patted his leg, and remembered, isn't this Li Zhi the one who Lu Qiaofu picked up the wind for him in the Spring Hall that day?

"Then what did Shen Yue say..."

"She admitted that she had been to Nanqiao that night, but she denied that she had killed someone...", Zeng Shuo said.

Gu Xiaoman thought for a moment: "Shen Yue won't lie, she said no, no, I want to see Shen Yue, is there a way?" ”

Zeng Shuo shook his head: "There are some difficulties, she is now locked up in the innermost layer of the Duya Prison, she is considered a felon, and no one can see ....."

At night, Gu Xiaoman summoned Orange Rui and asked her to go to the Duya Prison at night and try to see Shen Yue, because she always felt that this matter was not so simple.

The lamp and candle gradually burned out, Gu Xiaoman held a half-made lamp in his left hand, and a piece of bamboo in his right hand, but his head was like pounding garlic little by little, at this time, the door seemed to be opened, Gu Xiaoman woke up suddenly, and before she turned her head, she had already shouted directly: "How is it, Orange Rui, see Shen ....."

But I saw that the person who came was dressed in a moon-white robe, with black hair and a crown, even in the dim light, it was still scorching....

"Shen what? Sinking Moon? Chu Luo slowly stepped forward, took the things in her hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "Boss Gu is really good, he even dares to ask someone to break into the prison." ”

Gu Xiaoman blinked, and immediately changed his words: "That... You heard me wrong, I didn't ......"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Xiaoman's body suddenly lightened and he was hugged by him.

Gu Xiaoman's sleepy worm, which was still full of head just now, was half scared away at once, and he said in a little panic: "You, you... What are you doing? ”

Although it is not the first time she has been hugged by him like this, this way back, her legs and feet are inconvenient, and she is carried in and out by him like this, but it is the first time that she has been held in the middle of the night like this....

He looked at her: "Boss Gu, it's so late at night, what do you say this king is going to do, of course it's sleeping....."

Gu Xiaoman's heart jumped: "No, no, no, I'm not sleepy, if the prince is sleepy, you can go back to the green grass to sleep first, don't worry about me..."

"Not sleepy? Who is the person whose eyelids are almost glued together that this king saw just now, Boss Gu really likes to laugh...", he put her on the bed, and then lay down beside her.

Gu Xiaoman panicked even more.

"Lord Wang, you said it all, it's late at night, aren't you going back?"

Chu Luo pulled the futon with a pale face and covered himself and Gu Xiaoman: "Why does this king want to go back?" Boss Gu, it's not the first time that you and I have spent a good night together, what's the matter, are you still shy? ”

“..........”

Ahh

Seeing her keep moving herself inside, trying to guard against him, but unable to show the contradictory look, the corners of his mouth seemed to be hooked, and with an extension of his arm, he took her into his arms again, and then patted her back.

"Okay, let's sleep, this king is a little tired...."

After speaking, he took the lead in closing his eyes.

Gu Xiaoman raised his eyes and glanced down, and when he saw that he really seemed to be going to sleep, his heart was relieved, but he was also a little unsure of what he was going to do.

Originally, she was very sleepy, and the familiar smell faintly coming from the tip of her nose made her inexplicably reassured, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.

Soon, Orange Rui came back, and only then did she settle down in the yard, and Chu Yi appeared, stopped in front of her, and said, "Boss Gu has already slept." ”

Orange Rui twisted her eyebrows: "Who are you?" Why is it here? ”

Chu said expressionlessly: "You don't have to ask more, go back, come back tomorrow..."

Naturally, Orange Rui wouldn't listen to him, so he had to go in, and the two got into a fight.....

The next day, when Gu Xiaoman woke up, there was no one around him....

Could it be that she was dreaming last night?

Reached out and touched the seat next to him, it was still warm.....

Not her hallucination, last night..... He's really ......

There was a knock on the door.

"Are you awake?" came Jiang Yao's voice.

She replied, "Wake up, come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and Jiang Yao brought in breakfast.

"I just got up at this point, do you count it breakfast or lunch....."

Gu Xiaoman got up and stretched his waist.

Jiang Yao glanced at her: "It seems that you slept well....."

Gu Xiaoman twisted his neck: "It's okay....."

It's rare to have a sleepless night, it's been a long time since it's been like this....

Jiang Yao approached with a malicious face: "You nightmare, Mo Qing has so many recipes, I think... In the end, you might as well sleep with someone... Hmmm......"

Gu Xiaoman's mouth was suddenly covered by Gu Xiaoman, and she frowned and said, "What are you talking nonsense..."

Jiang Yao pushed her hand away: "How can I talk nonsense, I saw it, he ..... from here"

Then, she walked with her fingers down.

Gu Xiao said in her heart, it's over, it's not good to be seen by anyone, but she was seen by Jiang Yao's big mouth, if this matter is known by Hua Hong, she is afraid that she will really .....

Seeing her expression as if 'Hongxing was caught out of the wall', Jiang Yao laughed and said, "Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this, I promise..."

Gu Xiaoman glanced at her, obviously unconvinced.

"If you're not at ease, then it's better to give me hush money....." Jiang Yao spread her hands.

Hush money? Gu Xiaoman glanced at her.

"How much do you want?"

"It's a lot, but I don't really want you to give it, borrow me, I can give you an IOU...."Jiang Yao said.

Gu Xiaoman thought for a moment.

"Yesterday you were not there for a day, and it has something to do with this silver?"

Jiang Yao shrugged her shoulders and didn't deny it, but when she opened her mouth to say something, she swallowed it back again, turned around and went to spoon porridge for her.

Gu Xiaoman raised his eyebrows when he saw that she wanted to speak and stopped: "It's rare to see you like this, but what happened?" ”

Jiang Yao put the porridge in front of her, paused for a while, and then said, "Manluo, I think.... Buy someone..."

Buying people? "Who to buy?"

"A little girl named Ping'an in Yongle Casino......"

Casinos? Gu Xiaoman frowned.

In this world, people are divided into three, six, five and other high and low, some people are born as palace nobles, high and high, just like the sun above your head, you have to look up to him all your life, but some people are born as slaves, and their lives can only be the mud under their feet, and they do everything for food and clothing all day long, and they are bought and sold like livestock, which is just a normal phenomenon.

Yao has a special slavery market, and the stewards of large families will usually go there to find some subordinates with death deeds. Of course, the black market is also possible, but those who are sold are cheap, but their origin is unknown, and their physical fitness is not guaranteed.

There is also a gambling house, which is basically a father or husband who is carried away by gambling addiction because he can't afford to pay it back, and takes his wife and children to pay off the debt, so most women and children are born, and because they are basically from good people, the family is clean, so the price is higher.
