When Sun Chuan was led down to see Xiaohong's body, the official finally couldn't help but say indignantly, "My lord, this Sun Chuan doesn't have a word of truth in his mouth - he met with the Gu family in private, and we can all see it with our own eyes...... And when he was in the Huo family before, he obviously didn't have the slightest sadness, but just now he was full of tears and grief, which was clearly hypocritical, and deliberately acted in front of adults......"

Song Zixun nodded while dealing with the official documents, "It's quite like that......"

Officer: "......"

The other was busy with his brain, "Why don't you go and arrest him now?" That kid had just gone to see the corpse, and he shouldn't have gone far yet......" he said, "A guy with a flamboyant tongue like this won't tell the truth without two punches." ”

Song Zixun glanced at him lightly, "Torture? On what basis? Did he kill someone or break the law? Song Zixun put down his pen, "The laws of this dynasty are strict, how can you, as public servants, abuse your power and torture to extract confessions?" He paused and said idly, "What's more, this official has always been the most disgusted with the use of violence, and you don't want to shout and kill all day long...... The virtue of convincing talents is. ”

The two officials looked at each other when they heard this, and only after a while did they ask tentatively, "......What does the adult mean?"

Song Zixun thought for a while, "When did they meet?" ”

"Like...... It seems like three days later? The young servant scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at his companion, who gave him a helpless expression, "The subordinate was standing too far away to hear very clearly......

"Then keep an eye on these two people first." Song Zixun said lightly, "Look at the agreement they reached, what it is." ”

……………………

The next few days were spent in peace.

Sun Chuan was led by Song Zixun to see Xiaohong's "last face" since that day, and he vomited wildly before he left the yamen, and in the end he was almost helped out by someone. When I got home that night, I had a high fever, and I was sick for three days.

The Gu family on the other side was also suddenly born. Originally, she had been pestering Huo Yuanwai for the past few days, trying to persuade him to invite the master to come to the house, but in the past two days, not only did she not mention the old things again, but she didn't even go to the study much.

Huo Yuliang has been busy with the shop recently, and he has been too busy to take care of himself, and Gu's attitude has changed so much that he doesn't pay attention to it at all, he still goes out early and returns late every day, and always stays in the study at night.

The two of them are safe and sound.

Even when the official and Song Zixun returned, he couldn't help muttering, "Maybe my subordinates misheard it that day...... After all, it was so far away......"

Song Zixun didn't even raise his head, "Wait...... It's the fox that will show its tail sooner or later. ”

…… The opportunity was not long in coming.

On the afternoon of the fifth day, the people of the Huo family had just finished their busy morning, and it was time to eat and drink enough and hide in the cool place to doze off.

The back door of the house was suddenly opened by someone lightly from the inside, and then a woman-in-law with a full face poked out of it. The woman sneakily looked out several times, and saw that there was no one else in the alley except a handsome and thin young man, so she opened the crack in the door a little wider, and her strong body came out of the crack like a fat fish, and then respectfully welcomed a graceful woman in a lilac dress out of it. A small bookstore

When the man saw them, he couldn't help but smile and stepped forward and said, "It turned out to be Aunt Gu...... Xiaosheng has been waiting here for a long time. As he spoke, his eyes looked at Gu's plump body unscrupulously.

Gu Shi covered his nose with a handkerchief, and while instructing the mother-in-law to go to the back door to guard, he said with disgust on his face, "If it weren't for Xiaohong's sake, I wouldn't have seen you...... Get out of here with this money – the farther you go, the better! ”

With that, he smashed a heavy bag of stuff at him.

Sun Chuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, and he didn't know what he thought of for a while, and suddenly showed a gloomy and strange look on his face, "Do you still have the face to mention Xiaohong to me?" If it weren't for you, how could Xiaohong have died! ”

Gu took a step back, "I, I didn't expect to-"

"Do you know what they told me when I was in the Yamen morgue that day......" Sun Chuan's face turned pale, gritted his teeth and said, "You are safe and secure in the Huo family as your aunt's wife, poor my Xiaohong is lying in the morgue, and she will be disemboweled!" He shook the bag of things in his hand, took two steps forward, and a hideous handsome face almost rubbed against Gu's cheek, "Why, now you want to send Lao Tzu away with just a few stinky money?!" Shall you be the one who asks for food? Well?! ”

"Hugh is rude!" Seeing this, the mother-in-law who was looking at the wind for the Gu family rushed over, pushed Sun Chuan aside, and said, "My aunt is willing to come out to see you to give you face, and you kid Hugh wants to get an inch in and kick your nose in the face!" ”

The mother-in-law already has a big waist and a round waist, and she is extremely powerful, but Sun Chuan just fell ill two days ago, and now although she has recovered, she has no energy in the end, and this push made her stumble, and she took several steps back.

Seeing his fierce eyes, Gu couldn't help but be a little scared in his heart, and hid behind his mother-in-law and said weakly, "Then you...... How much do you really want? ”

Sun Chuan stood up straight, and opened a palm towards her with a gloomy face.

Gu Shi hesitated, "...... Fifty taels? ”

"Five hundred taels." Sun Chuan said viciously, "You can't have one less son!" ”

"Five hundred taels!" Gu Shi snorted lightly, "You said it lightly!" Where am I going to get you so much silver? ”

"That's your business." Sun Chuan said coldly, "I'll give you three days, and I must see the money after three days." ”

His gaze looked at Gu like a poisonous snake spitting letters, "I advise you to prepare the money obediently, let's be hello, I'm good, everyone is good...... Otherwise-" Sun Chuan sneered, "I don't mind going to tell Master Huo, how were you back then-"

"Shut up!" Gu Shi hurriedly stopped, she gritted her teeth, "Don't you just want money?" I can give it to you! But five days is too short for me to sell my jewelry. You'll give me a few more days......"

Sun Chuan stared at Gu Shi for a while, making sure that she was not playing tricks on herself, before he relented, "Ten days at most." Ten days later, at this time, I will be waiting for you here. ”

Gu pursed his lips and nodded, "One word is a certainty." She paused, "But you also have to promise me that once you get the money, it will be ......."

"It's nature." Sun Chuan interrupted, "But Lao Tzu reminds you, don't play any tricks with Lao Tzu...... Otherwise, Lao Tzu Guan Bao told you to walk around without eating for the rest of your life! ”

Gu Shi hated to bite a mouthful of silver teeth, "Got it." ”
