Chapter 40: Xingshi asks for sin

"Let's take a sip of water!" Seeing this, Bei Mingchen handed the cup in his hand to the woman again.

"Oh, thank you!" Mechanically said thank you, He Muwan's tone was very stiff, and she didn't know why, saying thank you to the man in front of her was so awkward.

After taking a big sip of water, He Muwan felt much more comfortable, but after a moment just now, she felt that she couldn't eat anymore, so she put down the teacup and said lightly, "I'm full!" ”

"When you're full, pack up and get ready to go!" I've been hungry for too long, and eating too much at one time is not good for my stomach after all, and since she said that she was full, Bei Yingchen didn't force it anymore.

"Oh, good!" Casually agreed, He Muwan got up and planned to simply freshen up, and then change into clean clothes, after all, she was going to see the elders, and the etiquette still had to be there, and she couldn't be too sloppy.

"Why are you still here?" Seeing the man standing motionless, He Muwan continued to speak.

"This king is with you!"

"What?" He Muwan was obviously surprised.

In the officialdom, they are opposites, Zheng Zerun is acquitted, He Hong will definitely send each other, whether it is He Hong or Zheng Zerun, the relationship with Bei Mingchen is not good, let them meet, it will only make everyone unhappy.

Thinking like this, He Muwan hesitantly added: "This is not very good! I'd better go on my own! ”

"This king is not going, do you think you can find Zheng Zerun by yourself?"

What he said seemed to make sense, and after thinking about it, He Muwan proposed: "You tell me the location, or let the guards take me over!" ”

"Don't worry, this king is just sending you over, and there will be no conflict with them!" Clearly knowing the woman's thoughts, Bei Mingchen opened his mouth and said with relief.

"But ......"

"Okay, that's it, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and clean up! It's too late for a while! She was already a little impatient, and before He Muwan could finish speaking, Bei Mingchen interrupted her.

"Actually, I just wanted to say, you're here, I can't change my clothes!" Looking at the man carefully, He Muwan said weakly, she was afraid that if she annoyed the man, he would not allow her to go.

"This king is waiting for you outside, hurry up!" Glancing at the woman helplessly, Bei Yingchen said this, and turned around and went out.

Knowing that Zheng Zerun was acquitted, He Hong was both happy and puzzled, this time the incident was obviously deliberately planned by someone, and the mastermind behind the scenes, He Hong didn't have to think about it to know who it was.

framed Zheng Zerun and arrested him in prison, what Gu Shichong wanted to deal with in the end was obviously the He family, He Hong knew this very well, and tried his best to plan the layout, with Gu Shichong's temperament, he would definitely not give up easily.

There must be something wrong with this, but who is secretly helping? He Hong really couldn't think of it.

Puzzled, he simply stopped thinking about it, after all, it was a friend and not an enemy, anyway, now that Zheng Zerun is fine, he will be relieved.

After many years of friendship, it is rare to have the opportunity to see each other again, how could He Hong miss this opportunity, after picking it up, he hurriedly left the mansion to welcome Zheng Zerun out of prison and personally sent him out of the imperial city.

When Gu Shichong heard the news of Zheng Zerun's acquittal, he was annoyed and slapped the mahogany table next to him.

The teacup shook, the tea in the cup overflowed, and Gu Shichong said with anger in his eyes: "What the hell is this Liu Wenzhi doing?" ”

"Xiang Ye is angry!" Seeing this, Steward Qian hurriedly relieved: "My subordinates will send someone to Liu's Mansion to find out!" ”

"No need!"

As soon as Steward Qian turned around, he was stopped by Gu Shichong, and when he turned around, he found that Gu Shichong had already stood up from the chair.

"I'm going to do it myself!" With such a heavy sentence, Gu Shichong strode out.

Liu Wenzhi returned to the house full of apprehension, fortunately, the woman was still trustworthy, and when he went back, he found that the most critical page, I don't know when, had been sent back to his room.

The original place was obviously unsafe, and after looking around the room, Liu Wenzhi hurriedly took out the things at the head of the bed, stepped on the high and hid them on the beams.

"Master, it's not good!"

As soon as he jumped down from a height, Liu Wenzhi heard the panicked voice of the housekeeper coming from the door.

Shocked, Liu Wenzhi almost failed to stand firmly, and finally stabilized his body, and before he could open the door, Liu Wenzhi heard the housekeeper's voice sounding at the door again.

"Master, you're not here, something is wrong!"

"What are you doing, reckless, you want to scare the official to death!" caused him to almost fall, and when he opened the door, Liu Wenzhi scolded him dissatisfied.

"No, sir! This ......" Because of nervousness, the housekeeper was already a little incoherent, and after a sigh of relief, he continued: "Gu Xiang came, looking very angry, saying that he wanted to see the master immediately!" ”

After all, he couldn't hide from what he should have come, Liu Wenzhi knew that as soon as the news came out, Gu Shichong would definitely come to the door in person to ask for the crime, straighten his clothes, and Liu Wenzhi walked quickly towards the living room.

Seeing Gu Shichong sitting on a chair in the middle of the living room from a distance, Liu Wenzhi put on a smiling face and stepped forward.

But before he could speak, he heard a "clang", and a teacup smashed directly at his feet, and the tea splashed out, staining Liu Wenzhi's trouser legs.

Shrinking his head, he still stood honestly in place, not to mention that the teacup was just smashed under his feet, even if it was smashed into his head, he didn't dare to dodge.

"Liu Wenzhi, what are you doing, didn't you say yes, find a way to get Zheng Zerun to confess that He Hong is the same party, and wipe them out? It's good that you actually helped Zheng Zerun get rid of his sin, saying, how much benefit did they give you? ”

As soon as he came back to his senses, Liu Wenzhi heard Gu Shichong scolding with his head and face, he hurriedly put a smile on his face again, and said respectfully: "Xiangye is angry, listen to the lower official explain to you!" ”

"You'd better give Benxiang a satisfactory answer, otherwise, don't do it!" Unabated, Gu Shichong continued.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Wenzhi promised again and again: "Actually, the lower officials have no choice but to do this!" ”

Saying that, Liu Wenzhi looked at the subordinates in the room, motioned for them all to retreat, and after all the subordinates went out, Liu Wenzhi turned around and closed the door.

"What are you doing, is it possible that there is something hidden in this?" Regarding Liu Wenzhi's actions, Gu Shichong was puzzled.

Walking forward, Liu Wenzhi took out a few pages of accounts that had been prepared early in the morning from his arms according to the method Qiu Moxun said, and handed them to Gu Shichong on the seat.
