Gu Yun's family background, appearance, talent, and character are all the best choices, even in Jiangdong, where there are many family valves, they are also outstanding, even if they are not as popular with girls as Pan An, who is a fruit thrower, there should never be emotional problems.

"One is Zhang Xuanji of Zhang's family, who is over twenty-nine years old, knowledgeable, gentle and frugal, Fang Lan is physically fit, and leisurely and elegant. I heard that it is no less than Lu Xu, the first genius in Jiangdong, who knows the Five Classics and is good at literature. ”

Xu You stayed on the spot, gritted his teeth and said, "You can't even look down on such a girl?" ”

This is really more people than people, angry people, Fang Lan is actually physical, leisurely and elegant, her body exudes fragrance, her demeanor is thousands, and the praise of describing a woman is nothing more than this, the troubles of being rich and handsome are really not understandable to ordinary people.

Gu Yun said bitterly: "If it only ends here, of course I can see it." But here's more...... Lu Xuanji has a blue-black tire mark on the left side of his face, which is ridiculed by the long-tongued women as a yin and yang fish face, which makes people shudder at first glance. And from the face to face, the green lord is worried, the white lord is mourning, and the black lord is sick, Lu Xuanji's left face is blue and black, and the right face is snow-white. This matter has been rumored in the family for a long time, and he is already so old, and he is unwilling to give in, so he has not married yet. ”

"Since the disciples of the gate valve are unwilling to marry her, how did they get into your candidacy?"

Gu Yun sighed: "Zhang Xuanji's father Zhang Yi is Jiangzhou Sima, and he has a deep friendship with his father from time to time. My father didn't believe in the ghosts and gods of those warlocks, and like Weizhi, he thought that marrying a wife should be virtuous, and he really appreciated Zhang Xuanji's talents, so the two of them verbally agreed to this family business. But my mother resolutely disagreed, thinking that it was insulting to the court, and my father was not good at forcing me to complete the marriage, but I felt ashamed of Zhang Sima and refused to withdraw from my family. ”

During the Six Dynasties, the grandmother was called the eldest mother, and the grandfather was the eldest father, and they were collectively called the eldest parents. Xu You sighed and said, "What about the other one?" ”

In order to dispel my father's thoughts, the eldest mother asked someone to inquire and identified Lu Weiyang of the Lu family. This woman is very beautiful, often say that a woman is not talented is virtuous, every day I know to read the "Female Commandment", to the father and brother as the sky, to obey the words, without a little insight and ideas, is ridiculed as a carved pedestal screen ......"

"What do you mean by that?"

"The seat screen doesn't move, it's just that the furnishings are good-looking!"

What else can Xu You say, he said: "Either you are ugly and beautiful, or you are beautiful and unintentional, don't say that you are embarrassed, I have a headache when I think about it!" I can't do anything about this kind of thing, I can only see what you choose! ”

"Where will I have a choice?"

Gu Yun shook his head again and again, like a young man who was confused and confused about love and marriage, and said: "Let's go, go drink, get drunk, get drunk!" ”

At noon, he had a meal at the county office, and he had to try the case later, so he couldn't drink too much, Xu You persuaded Gu Yun to stop and have fun. After lunch, Gu Yun took Xu You to the back garden, surrounded the pavilion with a thick cloth curtain, warmed by the ground fire, studied ink and painted, folded willows and poems, but was also comfortable, and did not drink freely.

At the beginning of the Shen period, the guards sent to Zhou Village to get people came back to restore their lives, and the brother and sister-in-law of Baihua brought them to the front of the hall, and summoned Hong Qi, without too much inquiry, the sticks beat the ground, and the soldiers drank mightily, and immediately collapsed to the ground, and confessed everything in 1510.

Gu Yun was furious, and there was such a tragic incident of rebellion against human ethics under his rule, selling his sister and humiliating his mother, heaven and earth would not tolerate it, and he was also shameless as a county order, so he was severely sentenced to Hong Qi to be hanged, and his brother and sister-in-law were sentenced to death together with Hong Qi!

Bao Xi objected and said: "Selling relatives, according to the law of theft, can only be sentenced to exile at most, the Ming government will be sentenced to death, and the case of the Ministry of Reporting will also be dismissed, and at that time, it will greatly damage the prestige of the Ming government." ”

Gu Yun said coldly: "Mr. is confused! How can the execution of these two fangs be used as a pretext for plundering their sisters? This dynasty rules the world with filial piety, not only do they not have to serve the sick mother, but they do not have food and clothing, resulting in sitting on the bed and tortured to death, only this one, a thousand knives are not too much! ”

What he could think of, how could Bao Xi not think of it? But in this way, humiliating the mother to death will inevitably have to be discussed in the court, and if Liu Ning catches the handle of the people's unappeasement, it will be even more difficult to be promoted.

Bao Xi gestured to Xu You with his eyes, he is also one of the witnesses in this case, but his style of handling things is not as stubborn as Gu Yun, he should know the pros and cons, and said: "The Ming Mansion is not in a hurry, why don't you listen to what Xu Langjun has to say first?" ”

Gu Yun thought for a while and said, "Okay, Weizhi, do you think the two should be sentenced to death?" ”

"Yes!"

Xu You did not hesitate, ignoring Bao Xi's already blue face, and said, "If I come to break it, I will let them die without a place to be buried." But Feiqing is not me, you are responsible for the safety and well-being of tens of thousands of people in Qiantang, and you should follow the law when you break out of prison, and you can't arbitrarily increase or reduce your sentence because of personal feelings. Since the law of theft is clearly stated, those who sell their relatives are exiled, and Feiqing is punished as a capital crime, which is not only untruthful, but also inconsistent with legal principles. ”

"This ......" Gu Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "I thought that Wei Zhi hated these crimes of plundering and selling his beloved people the most......"

"I really hate it, but the law is the law, so I want Feiqing to play the court, so that the buyer and the seller are guilty of the same crime, but before the court changes the law, you can only use the current law to decide the prison affairs, and you can't do it arbitrarily!"

Xu You is not a delusional person who blindly emphasizes the spirit of the rule of law, and sometimes he doesn't mind taking some extraordinary measures for things that the law can't solve. It's just that Baihua's parents are no longer alive, and her brother and sister-in-law are her only relatives left, how to deal with them, Xu You hopes to let Baihua decide for himself one day in the future.

Gu Yun got up, made a gesture, and said: "Wei Zhi's big words, such as Daigo empowerment, please accept my gift!" ”

Xu You returned the salute and said: "Feiqing is happy when he hears it, he has the style of a saint, he is really better than me, and he is ashamed!" ”

Bao Xi watched the two worship each other, and was both relieved that Xu You had persuaded Gu Yun and no longer insisted on going his own way, but deep down he felt a burst of uneasiness - his influence on Gu Yun finally began to be weaker than Xu You!

After a short rest, Gu Yun sent Xu You away, just arrived at the lotus pond, heard the noise of several people outside the Yi Gate, and was about to go to see why, a guard fell in backwards, hit the railing and fell into the pond.

In the plopping sound, the one who appeared in front of Gu Yun and Xu You behind him was the tall and majestic Zhu Rui!

Several other officials unsheathed their swords and surrounded Zhu Rui, but they were afraid of his martial arts and did not dare to make rash moves. Gu Yun's face sank, and he said, "Ziming, what are you doing!" ”

Zhu Rui's face was even more gloomy than Gu Yun's, and he said, "I'm here to ask you for help!" ”

Xu You wanted to laugh when he heard it, he was so tough to find someone to help, it was really amazing my brother. Gu Yun didn't feel funny at all, he knew Zhu Rui's temper very well, he could put aside his past grievances and come forward to beg him in person, something terrible must have happened, he didn't care about his fault for trespassing on the yamen, and asked with concern: "What happened?" ”

"Limbo is gone!"

"Huh?" Gu Yun's color changed suddenly, and he said, "When did you not see it?" ”

Zhu Rui didn't care that Xu You was there, or that there was no Xu You at all in his eyes at this moment, and explained the reason for the matter in detail. It turned out that after Du Mingyu visited the Zhu family that day, Zhu Lingbo secretly left home, from top to bottom, he thought that she rode a horse to the riverside to play, no one cared, after all, this girl was wild and bold, and it was not once or twice that she went out without permission. But in the evening, there was still no trace, so Zhu Li sent people to look for it, searched all over the banks of the Fuchuan River, and found a few almost unrecognizable horseshoe prints in the early morning of the second day, and actually traveled all the way to the direction of Qiantang in the north.

Zhu Litai knew this daughter and knew that she wanted to go to Qiantang to find Zhu Rui, so while sending someone Pegasus to Qiantang to inform Zhu Rui, he also sent someone to follow the hoof prints to search for Zhu Lingbo.

Zhu Lingbo was already eccentric, with the most ghost ideas, afraid that she would be caught back by Zhu Li, and she would fall short, so when she got out of Fuchun County, she rode a little red horse to the east and west, and her movements were erratic. In addition, the red horse was a BMW specially bought by Zhu Li from a certain country in the Western Regions, and the distance was much faster than other horses, which made the search for her a big headache.

However, Zhu Lingbo is a little girl after all, and she has little experience in the rivers and lakes, although she was lucky enough to get rid of the pursuers for a while, but after a long time, she can't get rid of the tracking of her subordinates after all. After two days like this, seeing that they were about to meet their heads, no one expected that suddenly it would snow, and the hoof prints completely disappeared in a place called Puyangjin in the upper reaches of the Fuchun River, and the tribes searched for more than ten miles in the direction of Qiantang, but still did not see the shadow of people and horses, and immediately panicked, divided into three roads, and carefully searched along the east, south and west, and after another day, there was still no trace found.

Zhu Li received the news from the ministry at home, it had been five days since Zhu Lingbo left home, and the girl he loved the most was born and dead, which made him worried and angry. The Zhu clan had worked hard in Wu County and even Jiangdong for a hundred years, and this had never happened, so he immediately set off from Fuchun with hundreds of the most elite tribesmen and arrived in Puyangjin one day later. In order to prevent the news of Zhu Lingbo's disappearance from leaking out, causing speculation and discussion from the outside world, and affecting his daughter's reputation and personal safety, Zhu Li did not show up in public, and commanded in the shadows, announcing to the outside world that he had arrested a thief who had broken into the house and robbed the rich family, and scattered all the troops he brought, with Puyangjin as the center, and went door to door within a radius of 30 miles, looking for it inch by inch, and it took more than 20 days without progress.

Zhu Li jumped like thunder, a living person, and a priceless horse, no matter what, it was impossible not to find any signs. Just when he was helpless, Zhu Zhi, the fourth elder of the Zhu family, rushed from Huiji County, took over the command, and after careful analysis, he narrowed the scope of the search, focusing on the surrounding fifteen miles, and did not let go of the slightest clue, only to open a breakthrough from an extremely easily ignored intelligence.

Eight miles northwest of Puyangjin, Fuchun Mountain and Longmen Mountain face each other on the shore, the Shajiang River is misty and the fishing boats gather, the smoke and rain are still the birds, and the end is a wonderful wonder. There is a village by the river, there are only seven households and 27 people in the village, who make a living by fishing along the river, and go to the town of Puyang Jinkou every seven or eight days to buy rice and grain. According to the owners of the rice shops who often sell to them, in the past month, they have bought three or four more adult men's rice at a time.

It's cold and freezing, it's not easy to catch fish, and it's not an unusual thing to stock up on more rice and grain for the winter, and they say the same to the rice shop owner. But Zhu Zhi thought that there was fraud in it, and the people of this village used to buy rice grain three or four times a month, but they had never appeared at Puyang Jinkou on time every seven days like this month, as if they were afraid that others would suspect them.

If there is suspicion, there will be a steady stream of suspicions, and finally Zhu Zhi concluded that Zhu Lingbo is seventy percent likely to be trapped in this village. Zhu Li couldn't bear it anymore, and took more than 100 subordinates, arranged and stopped, on the river, at the junction into the mountain, and around the village, all of them were firmly blocked, and then took advantage of the moonlight to attack it.

Sure enough, there are 27 people in nine households, every household hides a knife, and everyone knows martial arts, although it is superficial, it can also be seen that it is well-trained. However, in the face of the tiger wolf of the Zhu family, after a short fierce battle, more than 20 people were killed on the spot, leaving five alive. Without waiting for Zhu Zhi to interrogate overnight, these five people actually committed suicide by biting their tongues one by one, their minds were resolute, and they died calmly, and the scene was very heroic.

Then, to Zhu Li's disappointment, Zhu Lingbo was not found in the village, but the bones of the little red horse who had been killed and cut off his flesh were found, as well as three young young girls imprisoned in a secret prison.

Hearing Zhu Rui say this, Gu Yun sighed and said busily: "Is it a woman from a good family who was plundered and sold?" ”

"Exactly!" Zhu Rui said in a deep voice: "They are all good people in Linhai County, they have been plundered here, and they are locked in a secret prison all day long, and they don't know where they are, who they are imprisoned by, and they have never seen Ling Bo. The fourth uncle checked all the places in the village, and found that Ling Bo should have been abducted and taken to the Qiantang territory, so I am here to ask you for help......"

Gu Yun didn't have time to think about whether there was a connection between these three women and the two human trafficking cases he had tried before, the top priority was to find Zhu Lingbo as soon as possible, and said: "I will immediately send out a list and order the surrounding people to assist in the search, but I will report that anyone who has gained will be rewarded heavily!" ”

"No!"

Xu You and Zhu Rui spoke out at the same time to stop it, and Xu You said apologetically: "Zhu Langjun, please say, forgive me for being presumptuous!" ”

Zhu Rui seemed to have only seen Xu You at this time, hugged his fists and saluted, and said, "I've seen Xu Langjun!" "He is a bold person, and he doesn't like red tape the most, but just like Zhu Li described him, he is thick on the outside and thin on the inside, and when he should be careful about etiquette, he will not be worse than anyone else.

Xu You was surprised and said, "Do you recognize me?" ”

Zhu Rui didn't answer this question, and said: "I seem to be calm, but in fact, my mind is in turmoil, if Lang Jun has a clever plan, you might as well say it." ”

Xu You knew that the situation was urgent, and he was not polite, and said: "What kind of identity is the girl of the Zhu family, if Feiqing draws pictures and searches publicly, when the time comes, everyone will be able to find the person safely, I am afraid that she will no longer have the shame to stand in the world, and it will also greatly hurt the face of the Zhu family." This is a must-have. ”

Gu Yun hadn't thought about this, but he thought that things were prioritized, and now was not the time to care about face, so he said: "The face of the family is important, but I'm afraid that I will have a lot of dreams at night, and if I don't find Ling Bo, I am afraid that my life will be at risk." As for the rest, when you find someone and then think about how to solve it, there will always be a way. ”

"This is exactly what I want to say, if Feiqing is fanfare, casting a net on all sides, forcing the thief to go to a dead end, once he finds that there is no hope of getting out, he will kill Zhu Girl like killing a horse, destroy the corpse, and escape. When the time comes, where will they seek revenge? Besides, if the people are gone, it will not help to kill them ten thousand times. ”

Gu Yun was taken aback and said, "I didn't expect this layer ......."

Zhu Rui's eyes showed appreciation, and he nodded: "That's what I mean, but I don't understand it as clearly as Xu Langjun." ”

Xu You will not take this kind of polite words seriously, Zhu Rui has been very polite to him since they met today, and he must not be untargeted, as for what, he can't think of it now, but he doesn't mind making friends with this person, and said: "Now they are willing to continue to hold Zhu Girl hostage, instead of killing her, maybe they have the intention of trading and want to ask for a way to live." The most important thing at the moment is how to get in touch with this gang of thieves! ”

Zhu Rui's eyes were no longer appreciative, but sincerely surprised, and said: "The fourth uncle's thinking is the same as Feiqing's, the same is to find someone first, and then negotiate, save people first, kill thieves second!" ”

Zhu Zhi is known as Jiangzuo Zhuge , although he is suspected of having a good reputation, but it also shows his wisdom from the other side. Xu Younian is only sixteen, and he can see the same thing as this Zhuge hero, which is really not to be underestimated.

Gu Yun was not surprised, no matter what Xu You did earth-shattering, it was normal in his opinion, and said, "Then, what will happen next?" ”

"Since he is a thief who plunders and sells people, he must be cunning, and there will not be only a stronghold in the riverside village. When they came to Qiantang, they should have another place to live. Therefore, Feiqing wanted to let Du Sanxing, the local snake, act secretly and release the rangers from Qiantang to explore everywhere. Don't underestimate the rangers, if you talk about going into battle, these scoundrels can't compare to a finger of the Zhu family's tribe, but if you want to inquire about information and explore people's privacy, their ways and methods are far above the Zhu family! ”

"Okay, that's it!"

Gu Yun actually didn't notice it, I don't know when he was used to Xu You being by his side, planning some tricky things for him, and he obeyed his words, believed in it, and never really objected. This extraordinary trust immediately attracted Zhu Rui's attention, in his impression, Gu Yun was not an easy person to approach, nor was it so easy to trust others, but he looked at Xu You and didn't say much.

After all, Gu Yun's business has nothing to do with him!

Sometimes, the power of habit is terrifying, and when habit gradually turns into dependence, it will explode into an astonishing destructive force at some important moment of decision, which is jaw-dropping and helpless!

It's just that at this time, life is comfortable and leisurely, and each other doesn't know what the future will become, whether they are friends or enemies, whether they are living or dying, whether they are standing or kneeling, they are too far away and too hazy!
