Ah Zheng is not a local, he came to Meigong County four years ago, and since then he has been working as a partner in a small shop on Xu Ning Street.

People like Ah Zheng are like a seed floating in the wind, in the vast world, if there is a seed, who will find it?

If you want to find a scapegoat, compared to Ning Zhiheng, who was born in the Ning family and is just a womanizer, Ah Zheng is definitely more suitable, so it is very likely that the five princes will directly push Ah Zheng to the guillotine.

Bu Tianyou added that yesterday, a sister named Jin Xue once saw two suspicious people near Wan Yanfang, one of whom looked very much like that Ah Zheng from the figure, as long as the five princes colluded with Jin Xue, Jin Xue would definitely stand up and identify Ah Zheng.

Gu Xuesong groaned slightly, and said: "Gong Shouping is an official of the imperial court and a close confidant of the Holy Lord, and now that he has died unexpectedly, the Holy Lord will definitely send a messenger to investigate this case." How could Qin Cha be so easy to fool, how could he easily believe the so-called murderer who was pushed out? ”

Bu Tianyou said: "It's true that Qincha can't fool the past casually, but the fifth prince may not have wanted to fool the past. Maybe the five princes just want to use this to disrupt the progress of the case, so as to delay time. After all, there will always be a day when the anger of the Son of Heaven will subside, and the five princes may have made a big deal into a small matter. ”

Gu Xuesong couldn't help but groan again.

Gu Xuesong wooed Gong Shouping, making the five princes think that Gong Shouping had taken refuge in that nobleman, so as to lead the five princes to attack Gong Shouping, which was a clever move by Gu Xuesong. This move has come to this point, how can the five princes be turned into a big thing and a small matter?

Gu Xuesong lowered his eyes and said, "You go and stabilize Ning Zhiheng in the prison first, Ah Zheng's side, I have my own plans." ”

Bu Tianyou couldn't help frowning: "My lord......"

Gu Xuesong closed his eyes, Bu Tianyou couldn't, so he had to give up for the time being.

At this time, in Huacai Garden, Ning Xia Qing was sitting in the waiting room and waiting for someone.

The sun is getting higher and higher, and the sky seems to be filled with a vast mist, and the sun slowly climbs from the ridge to the middle of the sky, spreading the white mist, and the daylight turns from a dull gray to a fish white, and finally connects with the fog.

After Ning Xia Qing sent away Master Ning's housekeeper, he sat in the waiting room and waited for Master Ning to come in person. She knew that Master Ning would definitely come.

However, unexpectedly, the person who came first was Gu Xuesong.

Gu Xuesong sat in Tsing Yi and stood in front of her with a solemn expression.

She couldn't help but be stunned, subconsciously stood up, looked at Gu Xuesong stunned for a while, and then blessed with a blessing, and asked in a somewhat erratic tone: "Why is Master Gu here?" Is something wrong? ”

Gu Xuesong lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm here to find Ah Zheng." ”

She couldn't help but be even more confused, and frowned tightly: "Did Lord Gu come to see Ah Zheng specifically?" ”

Gu Xuesong didn't speak, she stared at Gu Xuesong for a while, and had no choice but to ask Dong Zizhen to call Ah Zheng over.

At this time, Cuiyu was walking from the kitchen to the front yard, and as soon as she bypassed the shadow wall, she saw Dong Zi with a dignified face really waiting for a blind walk outside the living room.

It's Mid-Autumn Festival. Last year's Mid-Autumn Festival coincided with Ning Yongda's death, and the Ning family was busy with a pot of porridge at that time, so naturally they would not celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At this time this year, although it has been a year since Ning Yongda's death, it is naturally impossible to celebrate in a big way, just make something delicious, and the family will be reunited. It's just that it is difficult to take care of Ning Yongda's death and take care of the appetite of the family's female dependents, and it is really difficult to grasp what specifications this reunion dinner should be prepared.

The cook came up with a few dishes for dinner, and then went to find Cuiyu, and asked Cuiyu to ask Ningxia Qing for the meaning of Ningxia Qing to see if the dishes chosen by the cook were suitable.

Cuiyu heard Cuizhi say that Ningxia Qing was waiting in the living room, so she went to the living room to find Ningxia Qing, and just bypassed the shadow wall, she saw Dong Zi with a dignified face really waiting for the living room door to wander around.

Cuiyu quietly walked around Dong Zizhen's back, and then suddenly came out and asked, "What are you doing?" What about being a thief? ”

"Alas, aunt, you're scared me to death......" Dong Zizhen held his chest and didn't dare to scream loudly, and swallowed back the careful liver that was scared by Cuiyu, and hurriedly motioned for Cuiyu to make a quieter sound, and then pulled Cuiyu and walked behind the shadow wall.

"What are you doing, let go of the ......" Cuiyu was dragged behind the shadow wall by Dong Zizhen while struggling, Dong Zizhen hurriedly said: "Be quiet, don't make noise inside." As he spoke, he glanced at the reception room.

Cuiyu understood, and hurriedly asked Dong Zizhen who was inside, and after learning that it was Gu Xuesong who came, Cuiyu was startled, and said uneasily: "Lord Gu hasn't been here for a long time, what's the ...... Why ...... today?"

"There's something even weirder." Dong Zizhen whispered to Cuiyu: "As soon as Master Gu came, he said that he was looking for Ah Zheng, and now he is talking to the three people in charge and Ah Zheng, and even I have been kicked out, I'm afraid this matter is not simple......

Cuiyu was stunned for a moment, her brows furrowed, and she muttered uneasily: "What the hell is going on...... Cuiyu thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something, out of an intuition, she hesitated and asked Dong Zizhen: "You say...... Could it have something to do with last night's events? ”

Dong Zizhen looked at Cuiyu and motioned for Cuiyu to continue, and Cuiyu said hesitantly: "Last night on Fuqiao Street, a lot of things happened......

Dong Zizhen thought for a while, suddenly understood, and said, "As soon as you say this, I will understand." ”

Jade stared at him with wide eyes: "What do you understand?" ”

Dong Zizhen said: "I just vaguely heard a few words outside, saying that it was Wan Yan Fang or something, wasn't the Hefeng Pavilion where we were located yesterday on the edge of Wan Yan Fang?" And I heard that a court official died in Wan Yanfang last night, and I guess they were discussing this! ”

Cui Yu was stunned, but she didn't expect that she had guessed correctly, and hurriedly asked Dong Zizhen: "What else did you hear?" ”

Dong Zizhen's expression suddenly darkened, and he said, "Except for this, I only heard Master Gu say to let Ah Zheng leave." ”

Cuiyu looked at Dong Zizhen in disbelief and repeated, "Lord Gu let Ah Zheng leave? ”

Dong Zizhen analyzed: "Although I didn't hear why Lord Gu wanted Ah Zheng to leave, but we were all on Fuqiao Street last night, early this morning, the eldest master's housekeeper came over to find the master again, it seems that this murder case has to be entangled with us, anyway, we are in trouble this time." ”

Cuiyu was stunned, thinking about Dong Zizhen's words that Master Gu asked Ah Zheng to leave.

Although Cuiyu is not smart, she is not stupid either, about the complex bond between Ningxia Qing, Gu Xuesong, and Ah Zheng, Cuiyu has long been aware of it, and now Gu Xuesong opened her mouth in front of Ningxia Qing to let Ah Zheng leave, Cuiyu couldn't help but worry, and her heart seemed to be a mess.

Cuiyu looked in the direction of the living room, her eyes were full of melancholy, as if she wanted to pay attention to Ning Ningqing's mood at the moment through the closed door.

Cuiyu's heart turned back and forth, and she couldn't help but glance at Dong Zizhen, and suddenly found that there was a difference in Dong Zizhen's eyes.

Although some things are inconvenient to say in person, Cuiyu understands what Dong Zizhen is thinking, understands what Dong Zizhen wants to ask, and understands why Dong Zizhen wants to say nothing.

Cuiyu pretended not to understand Dong Zizhen's heart-scratching of his ears and cheeks, ignored Dong Zizhen's curiosity, turned his head to look at the living room, and suddenly realized that he was behaving inappropriately at the moment, his face couldn't help but blush, and secretly blamed Dong Zizhen for being frivolous, and hurriedly pretended to naturally distance himself from Dong Zizhen, and slowly moved to the porch outside the door of the living room.

Gu Xuesong sat at the top and said calmly: "The situation is urgent, and now is not the time to discuss slowly. Tonight, I will arrange for a carriage to pick you up and will take you to safety. ”

Ah Zheng glanced at Gu Xuesong, and before he could speak, Gu Xuesong had already stood up, and Ning Xia Qing hurriedly asked, "Master Gu, can't you delay it for two days?" ”

"As I said, now is not the time to discuss slowly." Gu Xuesong calmly explained: "The people in the capital will arrive tomorrow, and it will be too late then. ”

Ningxia Qingdeng's heart was in turmoil, and she only felt like a knife was scurrying around in her heart, but the knife hurt her flesh and blood, and she couldn't cut the mess that made her heart ache. Gu Xuesong glanced at Ning Ningqing and said, "Miss Ning, pack some bags for Ah Zheng as soon as possible, and say goodbye." ”

Gu Xuesong walked out, Ning Xia Qing slumped on the chair, looking at Gu Xuesong's leaving, Ah Zheng came over and patted her on the shoulder, held her firmly on the chair, and then chased her out of the waiting room.

Gu Xuesong walked out of the small courtyard of the Ning family and stopped at the back door of Huacaiyuan, and Ah Zheng walked up from behind.

Gu Xuesong's body didn't move, he just turned around slightly, glanced at Ah Zheng, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and asked indifferently: "Are you here to ask me, is there any room for detours in this matter?" ”

Ah Zheng just wanted to say something, but Gu Xuesong replied by himself: "That's right, even if you don't leave, I have other ways to keep you from being implicated." But—"

Gu Xuesong turned around and looked at Ah Zheng, his expression was extremely confident and unruly: "-As long as you don't leave, there is always the possibility of being involved in things." Even if it's just a 1 in 10,000 chance, once it does happen, you will inevitably implicate her. So, you should be able to make the right decision. ”

Ning Xia Qing sat paralyzed on the chair in the living room, only to feel that his heart was like a knife. Since Gu Xuesong and Ah Zheng left before and after, Cuiyu ran in, and when she saw Ningxia Qing's appearance, Cuiyu was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Ningxia Qing. However, just when Ning Ningqing had not calmed down, Dong Zizhen ran in again and said, "The master, the eldest master is here." ”

Ning Xia Qing looked in the direction of the door, and felt that she had faintly heard Master Ning's footsteps, although she had known that Master Ning would come, but she only hated why it was at this time......

Ning Xia Qing only felt like a paper dummy, piled on a chair, and the bamboo pole that supported her body was firmly pinned to the chair, and there seemed to be a faint pain.

Master Ning walked in with the butler, Master Ning glanced at Ning Xia Qing, who did not get up to greet him, and was stunned in disbelief for a moment, then snorted angrily, and then sat down confidently on the top where Gu Xuesong was sitting just now, without hesitation, as if the position of the head should be his.

Cuizhi Cuiluo brought new tea over, and at this moment, Master Ning slapped the contract in his hand on the table, which made Cuiluo tremble, and the teacup in her hand shattered on the ground.

The sound of the teacup shattering was like an alarm bell in a dream, knocking on Ningxia Qing's distracted dream, making her break out in a cold sweat on her back.

"I, I'm ......" Cui Luo looked at the brittle porcelain, her face turned white, and she was so frightened that she couldn't even speak. Master Ning glanced over and said disdainfully: "The maids of small families are uneducated and hairy!" ”

Cuiyu was so angry that her face turned red, she looked at Ning Ningqing, and saw that Ningxia Qing's expression was still a little dazed, so she defended it on her own: "No one will inevitably miss a mistake, and our own maid will naturally teach her own lessons, and don't bother with such trivial things as the old man!" ”

Master Ning was so angry that he pointed to Cuiyu's nose and scolded: "You are a lowly little girl, you dare to contradict me, it's really ......"

At this moment, Ning Ningqing's voice came coldly: "What is the matter with the eldest lord here?" Could it be that the lord came to the door today just to help me teach the maid a lesson? ”

"You ......" Master Ning looked at Ningxia Qing, Cuiyu also looked at Ningxia Qing, except for Cuiluo, who was trembling with her head down, everyone couldn't help but look at Ningxia Qing.

Ning Xia Qing sat there, her hair and clothes were not messy, her expression was not seamless, her eyes looked slightly ahead, both formal and majestic, she was obviously a young girl, but she inexplicably had the grace of being a housewife.

Cuiyu's heart moved, her eyes were a little red, she hurriedly calmed down, gave Cuiluo a look, let Cuiluo go down first, and then took Cuizhi to clean the broken cup, and re-served a cup of tea, during which she kept looking at Ningxia Qing, and saw that Ningxia Qing had regained her former composure, and Cuiyu's expression gradually calmed down.

Ning Xia Qing took a sip of tea and moistened his throat, glanced at the contract in Master Ning's hand, and asked leisurely: "Lord Ning came here today just for this contract?" ”

Master Ning snorted coldly, and then said, "I have done what you wanted, let's go to the official mansion." ”

Ningxia Qing didn't move, suddenly like a silent bronze statue.
